BuddyPress.org

Mike to solve your problem with the login direction thing.. I’ve solved that with some jquery stuff which opens the reset password dialog:

examples:

http://emberapp.com/bowromir/images/firefox-6

http://emberapp.com/bowromir/images/firefox-7/

The code to display the reset password:

<h6>If you've forgotten your login details you can reset your password. Fill in your email or username and you'll receive an email with further instructions on how to reset your password.</h6><p></p>

<form name="lostpasswordform" id="lostpasswordform" action="<?php echo site_url('wp-login.php?action=lostpassword', 'login_post') ?>" method="post">

<p>

<label><?php _e('Username or E-mail:') ?><br />

<input type="text" name="user_login" id="user_login" class="loginpanel" value="<?php echo esc_attr($user_login); ?>" size="20" tabindex="10" /></label>

</p>

<?php do_action('lostpassword_form'); ?>

<p class="submit"><input type="submit" name="wp-submit" id="wp-submit" class="button-primary" value="<?php esc_attr_e('Get New Password'); ?>" tabindex="100" /></p>

</form>

Another thing you could do for the time being is style the wp-login page with your own logo:

I am having the same problem. I’ve traced it down to the fact that when the Buddypress plugin is activated the tables are not created. I started putting die() statements in bp-core.php and found that the install and check install functions were not running.

I went back to bp 1.0.3 and did the install and it worked. The tables were created. Here is my info:

1. Which version of WP/MU are you running?

2.8.6

2. Did you install WP/MU as a directory or subdomain install?

directory

3. If a directory install, is it in root or in a subdirectory?

subdirectory

4. Did you upgraded from a previous version of WP/MU? If so, from which version?

no clean install

5. Was WP/MU functioning properly before installing/upgrading BuddyPress (BP)? e.g. permalinks, creating a new post, commenting.

yes

6. Which version of BP are you running?

tried to install 1.1.3

7. Did you upgraded from a previous version of BP? If so, from which version?

no

8. Do you have any plugins other than BuddyPress installed and activated?

no

9. Are you using the standard BuddyPress themes or customized themes?

standard

10. Have you modified the core files in any way?

no

11. Do you have any custom functions in bp-custom.php?

no

12. If running bbPress, which version? Or did your BuddyPress install come with a copy of bbPress built-in?

came with it built in

13. Please provide a list of any errors in your server’s log files.

In Apache I got:

[Sun Feb 14 10:51:51 2010] [notice] child pid 8139 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

or with different pid each time I tried to install

in php there was this in the log

14. Which company provides your hosting?

No hosting, I’m installing it locally on a MAC with MAMP

No exact idea about how many memory is needed for BP, but for wp-mu it is in the wp-settings.php :

line13: define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’);

For WP single it is 32M…

https://trac.mu.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-settings.php

To know the php memory_limit on your server, use:

phpinfo();

or

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-memory-usage/

has anyone gotten this to work with the latest version of buddypress? I downloaded it at https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-member-filter, installed it but i can’t find the right files to change (the members.php). This plugin is exactly what my site needs, and i can’t wait to use it.

I dont have the lesser idea about the memory limit…but I think it is small, something like 8 or 16 Mb… How I can solve it?

I tried buddypress also on this other configuration:

WPmu 2.9.1.1 + PHP 5.2.3 + BP 1.2 RC3 b2715

It gave me this error:

Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

Warning: require_once(/home/www/khron.com/wordpress-mu/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/www/khron.com/wordpress-mu/wp-content/plugins/budypress/bp-loader.php on line 19

To answer DJPaul’s question, you can install this plugin:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-memory-usage/

To try to give more PHP memory:

BuddyPress — even on the most recent, cutting-edge “trunk” versions — is not built and has not been tested against WordPress 3.0-alpha. I am not Andy but I would guess that it is not going to be tested against WP 3.0 until it gets to a release candidate version.

So in the interim, YMMV.

http://foliovision.com/seo-tools/wordpress/plugin-reviews/faq-tastic

“- What is the best way to populate a ‘live’ (on a public server) site, view/test it online, but keep it hidden/private for non-admins (to prevent copycats, leaking, Google indexing etc)? The ‘privacy settings do no offer this choice? do I need a plugin for that?”

The simply brilliant way: edit your computer’s hosts file.

Slap MU up wherever, even on an IP address, but change your own host file to show the old domain at the new location. Proceed as usual. You & your computer is the only person to see the site “live”.

(oo bad construct there – computers aren’t people. yet.)

You won’t need any google-fu or the more privacy plugin. When the time comes, all you need to do is remove your own hosts file edit, update the DNS to the new server, and wait.

“- Which way to Chenge the Site url is working best (see https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL ), are the 2 ‘defines’ enough currently?”

in MU? Oh heck no. Nowhere near enough. The url is saved in a multitude of places. That’s why I suggested the hosts file way.

Yes, you have to keep editing it to go back to the live site, but it’s way less painful.

This’ll help.

Installing WordPressMu – The E-Book

Also, there’s a WordPressMU forum here:

https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/view/all-topics

Put it up on the wordpress repo with the appropriate tags

I was thinking of making a plugin that would create forums in ways that don’t require group creation/membership…perhaps this is something that shares similar functions to your plugin.

We did not write the WordPress FB Connect plugin. You need to talk to the author. I’ve marked this thread as not a support issue as it is not to do with BuddyPress.

I’ve marked this as not a support issue because it clearly isn’t.

That IS the plan – the 1.2 version out now are release candidates. They go out here for testing and feedback, and when they are official, THEN they go in the repo.

This way, the bugs get worked out by users who *choose* to upgrade knowing they may find issues. If all these changes were in the repo, you would have had upgrade notices 3 times in the last couple weeks.

sorry, edit.

@andrea-r,

sorry to be a little out of topic, but if you speak about future, i would ask what about code optimization and php memory ?

When reading on the codex, nothing is said that WP need by default 32 mo php RAM.

And the wp-health plugin is still under alpha dev…

And sure there is a problem with php memory.

On most shared host, this php memory is set to 16 Mo max… and no way to give more (even throught htaccess, wp-settings, wp-config tricks..)

This mean that WP/Mu can’t work with more than 4 or 5 plugins in best case.

And since 2.8, the memory consumption is growing a lot.

I’ve installed the Carrington theme/plugin site-wide on this site, but I don’t have a smartphone yet, so I don’t even know how to test it. If you have a chance to take a look on your mobile, let me know…

I guess it’s not detected in online emulators, not this one anyway. Are there other/better emulators I could try?

The Carrington theme is only WordPress of course. I’m curious if it at least works on the blog parts, including member blogs, or not at all. Perhaps it is possible to expand that theme.

I imagine that will be the plan. But since this plugin hasn’t been released yet for public consumption it has to be downloaded or updated via svn.

A tutorial for this will be put up, it’s not a priority until after 1.2 is released.

I’m also pretty new to WordPress and did not know the history that surrounded Premium plugins and the conflicts which occured in the past. I’m used to paying for plugins/3rd party extensions for software so I was kinda suprised by how the WP community sees this. I’m still not sure if it’s a good or a bad thing, but it’s one of the things that makes WP special.. I haven’t felt more at home then in the BP community so it says something about the general atmosphere around here
