BuddyPress.org

If you built a child theme and copied template file/s over from bp-default to your child theme folder, you’d like to see what template files have been changed from one version to another. e.g. BP 1.2.9 to BP 1.5 changelog you could see what template files were changed. Then change only the BP template file/s you have in your child theme which have been affected. Take extra time to watch out for changes in bp-default theme’s functions.php and _inc/css/default.css as well.

BP links are fully integrated in BP 1.6 trunk already.

BP 1.5.2 – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.2/bp-core/bp-core-adminbar.php
BP 1.6 trunk – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/bp-core/bp-core-adminbar.php

Changes from BP 1.5.1 to BP 1.5.2

– Build a child theme of bp-default theme = https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

– Within child theme folder, create a folder named groups, and copy over the groups-loop.php from bp-default theme into the groups folder https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.2/bp-themes/bp-default/groups/groups-loop.php

– Open up that groups-loop.php and replace
“
with
“

– Save and upload child theme folder e.g. bp-dusk to wp-content/themes/

Hi!

On this site, it ties into the WordPress.org shared user accounts. Probably they just don’t let you change your WordPress.org details; I’ve never had any luck. We should probably remove the option from the profile screen, I’ll feed back.

You can hook it up with add_action(‘admin_bar_menu’, to remove or change what you need.

For example, if you want to remove the annoying wordpress logo (imagine facebook having the PHP.net logo on their header) You can use: remove_menu(‘wp-logo’);

Here is a larger article i found via a google search that might help.

== it had more warnings (if I remember correctly, it was mostly warnings, not requirements) than I had time to even read up to understand them all. ==
Just to let you know that warnings/requirements listed in theme check are cause for rejecting a theme being submitted to the WordPress Theme Repository. Btw, Log Deprecated Notices plugin show up results in backend sometimes after clicking through 8-10 different theme pages in front end.

== If I just used BBpress forums for now…would I encounter similar issues? ==
I wouldn’t know. But if that happens, you can always change to Twenty Ten or Twenty Eleven theme and see if behavior is corrected.

If the emails were not picked up by spam or junk mail filters, then your webhosting may need an extra plugin.

See: BuddyPress isn’t sending out emails (eg. activation emails, email notifications) in https://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/frequently-asked-questions/#register

and / or: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/ (which has a useful debug feature)

@anniyan07 Thank you for sharing your solution. You need to revise the following files as well

/blogs/create.php
/members/single/settings/delete-account.php
/members/single/settings/general.php
/members/single/settings/notifications.php
/registration/activate.php

Updated list of files is available https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#tplfiles

== I have replaced everything except wp-content and wp-config.php with a fresh download of WordPress (3.3) after reading somewhere that installing via webscript can cause issues. ==
Did you delete .htaccess file as well and run Settings > Permalinks again? And yes, I’ve seen many cases of webscripts mucking up WP Multisite and/or BuddyPress installations and issues resolved by installing WP manually via FTP/cpanel/etc.

@sbaglia BP 1.5.2 was simply a small update to fix a few conflict issues with the two bars. (rather than leaving us stranded with broken sites)

The proper WP 3.3 update for Buddypress is 1.6 or 1.5.something where the features will be integrated.

Yes, because this site and demo site testbp.org are running on BuddyPress trunk.

It depends on the theme you are using. Generally to make a permanently imbedded video you would open the template file for your home page (sometimes called home.php) and paste it in there.

If your home page is widgetized then you can paste the code into a text widget and drag the widget to the proper location.

OR you can make your theme widgetized by following one of the many tutorials on how to widgetize a wordpress theme.

If this is about WP Multi-Network plugin, please log in and post at the WordPress.org forums for the plugin https://wordpress.org/tags/wp-multi-network?forum_id=10
Found interesting threads about possible solutions, including this one https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-multi-network-setup-instructions#post-2250134 and follow up from there, up to you.

the plugin above is only for the bp activity stream – maybe a regular wordpress plugin has that functionality for blog posts.
