Yes, this is a WPMU question. Use what Mohit suggested or search the WordPress plugin repository.

In reply to: group slugs when i18n environment

Paul Wong-Gibbs
Keymaster

From a quick Google search it appears that, yes, WordPress slug titles need to be improved to support i18n efforts. All the WordPress slugs – including the BuddyPress group threads – go through sanitize_title().

A patch for sanitize_title() to support i18n slug names for the WordPress core is the way to go. I don’t understand what’s required as I do not know much about i18n, so I’m leaving this alone.

In reply to: WordPress Theme with BP 1.1

proceon

Greetings –

Just need a little help here…I simply want to run BP 1.1 in compatibility mode

and use a WP theme for my root blog and and a BP theme for BP activities.

I do NOT want to merge the two. I have tried that, and my WP theme (Magicblue)

is not suited for all the things that BP needs. Therefore would like to run things

exactly like under BP1.0. I have this working on another system (WP 2.71/BP1.0).

I am not clear as to which template files to move to my WP theme from the new

version of BP. In the MERGE process I would move over “optionsbar.php”, “userbar.php”, and “plugin-template.php” and then move over all the subdirs from bp-sn-parent. What

do I move over to run in campatibility mode? PLEASE some help…I have posted several

times in these forums and do not seem to be getting any input.

Thank you once again for your time.

In reply to: How to create a forum that isn't associated with a group?

Boone Gorges
Keymaster

@wordpressfan I think you might be right for some kinds of communities, but as the groups functionality of BP becomes richer (as it does with, for example, Andy’s new External Group Blogs plugin), the groups/forums distinction won’t seem so arbitrary. Forums then become just one of the ways that group members (ie people who share a common interest or purpose) can collaborate and communicate. But you’re right that right now there is little difference between a group and a forum, at least functionally speaking.

In reply to: Groups and bbpress forums

I tried reading through and searching the forum before posting this. Unfortunately there isn’t a detailed description of everything for BP like the WordPress Codex, its a bit frustrating. Reading through the code usually works but that takes a lot of time and coffee

https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-discussions/buddypress-forum/ that link doesn’t really say much except describe what the forum plugin is all about.

I have been playing around with the integrated forum and I don’t like the way you have to associate forums with groups and stuff. I want to have something like this forum on this site, like the standard forum structure you get.

A forum with a root thread in which categories can be made and child threads can be started. Like what Vbulletin, Phpbb and SMF et al has.

What I am trying to figure out is if its possible to do this with the integrated forums or should I go to the standalone Bbpress installation.

Hello

I have buddypress 1.1.1 with WordPress Mu 2.8.4a.

When I try to add a friend says to me: ” The friendship cannot be tried ”

That I do?

@david lewis

it’s not hard: the plugin still exist.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-latest-discussion/

And works with 1.1 new forum integration. Even if not necessary because latest post appearing in the side wide activity. So the plugin is only interesting if you don’t use SWA or if you use a custom homepage or an external bbpress install…

If you use it, don’t forget to set the right DB table prefix in the plugin option (default is bb_, but now it’s wp_bb_)

select the forum you want to exclude, enter connection infos and that’s it !

Have fun !

Why don’t you try it youself?

Because I know it’s on the roadmap, I think for version 1.3 – and I’m not really a programmer.

Maybe taking feedwordpress as starting point could save Andy and others some time?

I’ll look into this myself when I upgrade to 1.1, which is going to be a mess with all the amateurish hacking I’ve done…

In reply to: What's "bp_before_blog_page" all about?

David Lewis
Participant

Ya. Haven’t played with them but it’s a cool idea. I assume it allows you to do “stuff” at those points in the code… i.e… run / insert something at those locations in the templates using a functions.php file. Pretty cool. WordPress has them as well.

In reply to: Trouble Upgrading?

djsteve
Participant

I found the upgrade instructions to be incorrect for older versions of BP to be upgraded. Not exactly sure which version I was running, pre1.0 I guess.. buddypress was in “mu-plugins” (that’s where we were supposed to put it back in the day right??)

Anyways, I could not find anyway to “deactivate buddypress” – maybe I’m losing my mind.

So I got stuck on that part.

I decided to backup my install, then delete all the buddypress files / folders I had in “mu-plugins”, then upgraded wordpressmu to 2.8.4a – then uploaded newer buddypress into “plugins” – so far seems to work, not sure if I lost anything, or if I would lose anything doing this on my other buddypress site.

Any suggestions?

I suggest a not in the upgrade instructions for anyone attempting and older bpress version upgrade.

I’m using feedwordpress, but this requires users to create blogs.

What I’m looking for is external blogs plugin which Andy wrote for groups. That is exactly what I want, and suppose what most of us on this discussion is looking for.

Wouldn’t this plugin cover what we need?

It seemlessly merges posts from an RSS feed with other posts in your blog. If there was a way to selectively offer this plugin to member blogs, that would solve it for me.

And perhaps some integration with Buddypress account areas to make it more idiot-proof; a field where members can enter their RSS feed, without having to go into the plugin back-end.

Perhaps we should join forces, Boone but my partner in crime Brent Layman (westpointer) and I have a working plugin that does the same thing (albeit w/o the elegant options you have)

Are you aware and maybe we can share code.

In reply to: admin bar links re-direct to homepage
Damon Cook
Participant
Ok, one major difference I’m noticing when comparing my local install and my live site it their htaccess and wp-config.php.

For example, my local wp-config.php reads:
```
$base = '/wordpress-mu/';

define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'localhost.localdomain' );

define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/wordpress-mu/' );
```
while my site wp-config.php reads:
```
$base = '/';

define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'blogs.empire-edutools.net' );

define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/' );
```
Does this make a difference to have the $base set?

Also line #2 of my local .htaccess reads:

RewriteBase /wordpress-mu/

while site .htaccess reads:

RewriteBase /

I think this is typical, but just want to verify?

In reply to: Deactivate the adminbar per blog

pushi22le

I found this plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/remove-buddypress-adminbar/

I also copied and edited the plugin to deactivate the bar just for guests. Here is the code:

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Remove BuddyPress AdminBar For Guests

Plugin URI: http://blog.netweblogic.com/php/wordpress-php/remove-admin-bar-plugin/

Description: This plugin removes the admin bar completely from the public area of the website just for guests. Can be used either as a normal or MU plugin.

Author: NetWebLogic LLC

Version: 1.2

Author URI: http://blog.netweblogic.com

*/

if ( !function_exists(‘remove_bp_adminbar_guests’) ) {

function remove_bp_adminbar_guests() {

if (!is_user_logged_in()) {

remove_action( ‘wp_footer’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar’, 8 );

remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar_css’, 1 );

function bp_core_override_adminbar_css_perblog() {

?>

<style type=”text/css”>body { padding-top: 0 !important; } #wp-admin-bar { display: none; }</style>

<?php

}

add_action( ‘wp_footer’, ‘bp_core_override_adminbar_css’ );

}

}

}

// Start this plugin once all other plugins are fully loaded

add_action( ‘plugins_loaded’, ‘remove_bp_adminbar_guests’ );

?>

So the bloggers have two options, they can deactivate the bar only for guests or also for the registered users.

If you build themes, upload them to the WordPress theme directory and tag them “buddypress”. They will show up on this site once approved.

In reply to: Good theme

David Lewis
Participant

I’m sure that within the next few years there will be a ton of BuddyPress themes out there. It’s just too new right now. 1.1 just came out last week. But it’ll happen. Just look at the millions of WordPress themes out there. And all those theme developers can “hit the ground running” with BuddyPress. Especially with 1.1… which is much simpler to theme than 1.0. Doing a BuddyPress theme is basically the same as doing a WordPress theme… just with more templates (Profile, Directories, Site Activity, etc.).

Also, it’s only natural that the first few themes available will be pretty simple re-workings of the default. Again… I think it’s just a matter of time before we start seeing really different high quality themes… like with WordPress. Elgg on the other hand will probably never had any good themes because it’s next to impossible to theme. Every Elgg theme I’ve ever seen is just a simple (ugly) re-work of the ugly default. That won’t be the case with BuddyPress.

In reply to: bp-dev.org vs. buddypress.org – why have two

Jeff Sayre
Participant

There is only one official site for BuddyPress discussion and that is this site.

bp-dev.org is a private site run by one of our moderators–Nicola Greco. He started it after he personally created several, early plugins for BuddyPress. I believe it served as an early plugin repository before BuddyPress plugins were hosted on WordPress.org.

There are already good themes for buddypress. I guess you haven’t searched enough. Core teams should focus on development, not themes. Since 1.1 theme design got much easier than before, so any wordpress theme designers can design.

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.

In reply to: fullname vs username vs first + last name…

David Lewis

I find it all somewhat confusing as well… First Name, Last Name, Nice Name, Username, Email… too many options. I think it’s much better from a usability point of view to sign in using your email address… because users don’t remember usernames. But that has nothing to do with BuddyPress. The way login works is a WordPress thing I presume.
