BuddyPress.org

A few other actions were added in 1.2 to help plugin authors hook into the correct places within BuddyPress.

bp_setup_globals

bp_setup_nav

bp_setup_root_components

bp_setup_widgets

The intent of those hooks for plugin authors, is to not load your code before BuddyPress does, potentially putting your navigation menus or global component setups out of alignment with BuddyPress. Typical WordPress priority rules apply, so it is still possible to bump your plugin ahead of BuddyPress if you need to.

sometimes when you copy items from a folder on harddrive to server via ftp program it misses hidden files like .htaccess

You can create a file htaccess.txt add the rewrite code then upload it after upload change the name of the file to .htaccess

I’m using WP single and this is whats in my .htacess file

RewriteBase /



#uploaded files

RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*wp-content/plugins.*

RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2 [L]



# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/wp-admin$

RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1/ [R=301,L]



RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d

RewriteRule . - [L]

RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-.*) $2 [L]

RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]

RewriteRule . index.php [L]

we usually call them “userbars”, as facebook changed the name just to make themselves proud to invent something new…

sure it can be easy to code, i’ve done a great version for vBulletin, and it would take little to make one for WordPress… i suppose someone will be able to code one..

Hey I solved this problem.

There were two problems:

1) no .htaccess

2) Text editor in Mac

You should have .htaccess in your FTP.

Maybe it’s hidden, but if it is not, you should make one.

You can make it with a simple text editor:

# BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

</IfModule>

# END WordPress

copy and paste this and save it as .htaccess and upload it your root wp folder.

Another problem for me was that I used the text editor in mac.

Its RTF format put some information in the beginning of the file which is invisible in the text editor.

That caused 500 error problem.

So I made .htacess in Dreamweaver (the memo app in Windows would be OK I guess), and uploaded it, IT WORKED.

I hope this would help for other people.

The reason my FTP did not have .htacess in the first place is beyond me.

There are lots of regular WP event plugins. I’d suggest searching on the wordpress.org site / forums. But for a BuddyPress integrated plugin… there are only two… one which is a WordPress MU Premium (paid) plugin… and bp-events from Erwin… the development of which seems to come in spurts. Last I heard… Erwin was pretty far along in making it 1.2 compatible and was mostly just working on an Ajax calendar feature. Hopefully it will be finished up soon-ish :o)

ehmm, please refrain from opening new posts which basically links to an other post which links to another post

Not that I do not agree with your request, but by annoying people who might be able to help out, you steer focus away from the problem.

Anyway, does feedwordpress not work?

Hello,

I’m having the same issues……..I do not have an “.htaccess” file anywhere on my hosting server.

I read that the two latest versions of WordPress and Buddypress may not be compatible – could this be the problem?

Thank you!

Rob

I started the group for splogging and spam a while ago, but to be honest I haven’t experienced any for quite a while now.

@andy’s right about changing the signup slug, that made a big difference for me. I also renamed (removed) the wp-signup.php file as that’s not in use, and again that made a difference – though watch for that on a wpmu / wp upgrade as it’ll replace the file.

I removed the WordPress references in my theme footer too, just to make it a little less obvious that I’m running WP.

Also running SI-Captcha antispam and NoSpamNX, but that’s about it nowadays.

@blackphantom, bloody brilliant!! Fixed the 404 issue!

Here is where I am with what doesn’t work (WordPress 2.9.2 and BP 1.2)

– I don’t see the filter for “Tweets” in the pulldown for the activity stream.

– My Twitter > BP timestamp is off by 6 hours.

– My Twitter > BP sync doesn’t work with (or I don’t understand) filters! It works when I remove the filters.

Requests:

– Extend the new forum topic “To Twitter” functionality to allow the same thing for topic replies.

Any of you who continue this thread any further are simply staring the ‘gift horse in the mouth’ so to speak.

~ spam in a problem for every company, be it IBM, Google or WordPress. These companies spend millions combatting it and it’s a problem for almost any CMS, or site that has UGC. If you can’t install Askimet, and/or a couple other preventative measures on your site, then you should hire someone who knows what their doing or you have a compromised(hacked) site where once again, you should hire someone who knows what they’re doing.

while not naming names ~ I have watched ‘your’ post on this forum and you’ve offered very little contribution and quite a bit of negativity. That doesn’t bode well for an open source community who provides you a product free of charge. Perhaps providing some meaningful feedback about your experiences will help the community develop better solutions instead of glaring accusations and harsh criticism? In fact your post in this community are very much like spam for the very same reason. At this point, you’ve pretty much hit an all time low since your accusing developers, many of whom work for free, of turning a blind eye towards the issue of spam. If you’re unhappy with website, may i suggest move on to another piece of software that is magically immune to spam robots, where you’ll most positively be a great asset, not only to them, but also with your absence here on the Buddypress Forums.

awesome work mate, tested it without an issue of install

Using wordpress 2.9 + BP 1.2

Ok. I put this on .htaccess and it comes back with 500 internal server error.

Now, not only buddypress but also WordPress does not work.

The whole site is tangled with 500 error.

If I delete .htaccess, WP works but BP comes with 404 error.

Running WordPress MU 2.9.1?

“and uploaded to godaddy and then unzipped there which create a buddypress folder in the html directory of godaddy.”

The plugin folder needs to go in wp-content/plugins/.

have you tried installing it from the admin area of WordPress? Go to the plugin menu and pick Install New.
