Ha
BTW… 2 seconds of searching on Google and I found a plugin to allow users to use their email address to login. I’m going to be plugging that in for sure. One less thing for users to have to remember and bug me about.
Exactly Andy. That’s my issue. Hacking the parent function.php file is easy. But I don’t want to do that. So I created a function.php file in my child theme but the unregister_sidebar() function doesn’t seem to work
I suspect this is a WPMU thing… not a BuddyPress thing. Here is the code I added to function.php in my child theme. Should work. Doesn’t. I’m at bit of a loss. I tried adding different priority levels to add_action() and they had no effect.<?php
function remove_sidebar() {
unregister_sidebar('third-section');
}
add_action( 'admin_init', 'remove_sidebar');
?>p.s. https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/unregister_sidebar
Now I feel bad that I ran out of time in late August / September and was unable to contribute to the test process, but that’s how it goes some of the time.
The reason I ultimately opted for a fresh install, even with existing groups, was that I discovered the option to *migrate* an existing install a) left bbpress as a separate install, which I didn’t want, and b) because we had opted to put bbpress’s tables in a database separate from the wordpress mu database.
So, the question is, how do we take these existing 25 groups and give them forums to connect to in the new bbpress-in-buddypress setup?
I’m my case… I’ve simply decided in home.php to wrap the “first-section” widgets with logic that will show that widget section only to logged in users… otherwise it is replaced with a positioning statement + calls to action (i.e. Join! Donate! Learn!) and a wordpress loop. Pretty simple stuff:
<?php if (!is_user_logged_in()) { ?>
[static content & wordpress loop for the public]
<?php } else { ?>
<?php if(!function_exists('dynamic_sidebar')||!dynamic_sidebar('first-section'))
>
[widgets for members only (i.e. site activity) ]
<?php endif; } ?>
It’s the main blog.
