KeymasterA majority of the registration protection you would want to do currently comes from the WordPress side of it; captchya’s and what-not.
I’ve seen it happen on a few BP sites I’ve done for clients already. Seems to come with the territory unfortunately.

ParticipantThanks Jeff Sayre!
The plugin has a very messy structure. I’ve tried with $bp added to global in several functions in the plugin, both in the main file and the file with the form. Nothing has any effect.
Are there any downsides to adding $bp if it’s not strictly needed? Can you make any plugin “Buddypress ready” by just adding that $bp to global?
I did get regular wp data working with help from their forum. I had to add this to the php:
global $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();Does Buddypress have something like that? Anything else I can try?

ParticipantGeneral theming guidance is beyond the scope of these forums as it really is more an issue of learning how to use CSS and WordPress/BuddyPress template loops to create the design you are after.
But, to help get you started, here a few links:
- Advice on using the default BP themes or Skeleton Theme that comes with BP
- A great tool to use while designing your theme.
- Basic how tos on WordPress theme design. NOTE: this link pertains to wordpress themes in general, not BuddyPress themes. But, you should really understand WP theming before you set out to do a BP custom theme.

ParticipantI’m using the WordPress P2-theme for this functionality. It won’t be integrated into Buddypress like the status update (since it’s a WP theme), but its the right thing for me. You might want to consider it.
August 12, 2009 at 11:20 am #50923ParticipantHi!
I’m altering the bp-member-theme to go along with P2. But these two components lay inside of a theme I’ve made with artisteer. There’s a lot of hacking code to make it all work but I’m beginning to like the result.
The reason I’m editing bpmember is that I want horizontal navigation and not vertical. This has been quite easy to edit but has taken me some time. I’ve had no experience with BP before and just a little with WP.
I’ve written about putting P2 in another theme before. You can find it here:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/294161
Anyway.. Editing P2 is way simpler than editing the whole of bphome/bpmember. It all depends on how much you want integreated in one “seamless look”.
Best of luck!

KeymasterWhat *is* /engine/start.php, because it’s not WordPress?
August 12, 2009 at 1:19 am #50917gerikg
ParticipantEasy no.
A. On your Hosting Control Panel point the new URL to the same folder as where you have everything now. Then go to the admin settings and change the URL on both WPMU and BBPress. It will log you out and you have to log in. Install plugin broken link checker https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/broken-link-checker/ and have fun changing all the URLs.
there is another option it involves setting up a new SQL and exporting everything and importing… bbpress has a pluging for you to export and import, I never used it so I don’t want to recommend it.

KeymasterThanks, I’m making a note of these suggestions.
The WP widget idea will most likely wait to another future version as I don’t know how to use the WordPress widget class, and I won’t have time to learn it before Sunday.

ParticipantI got the fatal error after deactivating the BP plugin and reactivating it. You have you delete the the BP plugin and themes and/or other files you moved out of the BP folder. (example BBpress-plugin and bphome theme) After all that fresh install.
August 11, 2009 at 7:22 pm #50907In reply to: FB Connect Plugin + BP 1.1 and Future?
KeymasterSeems most people that were previously loving the FaceBook/WordPress bridge have shifted their attention over to RPX as a better alternative for allowing users to register and login from anywhere.
Regarding the FaceBook Connect plugin (and most others really) someone will usually come along and take it over when they have a personal need that is bad enough to do it. Tends to happen with most abandoned projects as time goes on.
I’m sure Andy will chime in as to whether or not he plans to support it going forward.
August 11, 2009 at 7:09 pm #50905In reply to: wordpress mu 2.8.3+buddypress
KeymasterNo idea what’s happening, but my advice would be to disable all plugins, check and recheck the existence of all of the BuddyPress files in their correct locations, and try again?
August 11, 2009 at 6:53 pm #50899In reply to: How to change language?!
KeymasterYou need to have the WordPress language files in wp-contents/languages first, before WordPress will give you the option of changing the site and blog languages to something other than default. Once you have the files there, set your Site Language in Site-Admin->Options, then set your blog language in Settings->General.
Basically BuddyPress will follow whatever WordPress MU is set to do, but it cannot tell it what to do (yet).
WordPressMU has a specific way of handling language settings that involves a function that overrides the typical get_locale().

ParticipantDJPaul, I tried out the code you posted in the link above on my dev setup.
I just renamed the file to example_achievements.php (from phps), and uploaded to muplugins to see what it does. When I try to log into wp-admin, it shows me all the code from the file I just uploaded as well as the following error:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/kunal17/public_html/jainkunal/wordpressmu/wp-content/mu-plugins/example_achievements.php:1) in /home/kunal17/public_html/jainkunal/wordpressmu/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-signup.php on line 5

Sarah Gooding
MemberCould this be the issue? … I had originally installed my wordpressmu under /wordpress-mu/ but then moved it to the root later. My config file says:
/** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */
define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);
define(‘VHOST’, ‘yes’);
$base = ‘/wordpress-mu/’;
define(‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘cjmoloneys.com’ );
define(‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’ );
define(‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1);
define(‘BLOGID_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘1’ );
Is wrong with editing by hand and chaning the $base = ‘/wordpress-mu/’; ?? Everything on my site works fine except registrations. I don’t even know if this is the cause.

ParticipantThat’s the thing, nothing changed. I moved over some wordpress and buddpress tables from an old installation, but I didn’t change any of the bbpress tables.

ParticipantGigya Socialize worked for my install… I’ve only tried myspace, facebook and twitter – but it authenticated me correctly and I was able to login to BuddyPress. Only issue I’m having is that each time you login with one of your social usernames, it creates a new username in WPMU/BuddyPress, as opposed to all tying to your one WPMU/BuddyPress account. This created havoc for me, since I want to use groups, and other permissions.
At this point, I’m leaning towards limiting to just the Facebook login. Does anyone know if there is a way to hide/not allow login using the actual wordpress login, and ONLY use the login for Gigya Socialize? I/e allow users to go to wp-admin, but not give them the option to login using the user/pass – only letting them see the Gigya Socialize plugin.

ParticipantTHANKS Burt for the elegant hack!!
Should be part of the core BP option set…!
August 10, 2009 at 5:05 pm #50849In reply to: FB Connect Plugin + BP 1.1 and Future?
KeymasterAs far as I am aware, BP-FB Connect is not supported. It’s doesn’t even currently work properly, really. It is a port/bodge of a FB Connect plugin for WordPress.
I don’t know if the WordPress FB Connect plugin is support/still under development, but I know the WPMU/BP-version FB Connect isn’t.

ParticipantWickedbob,
Look at Community Blogs for BuddyPress (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-community-blogs). You can turn a normal blog into a Community Blog or a Group Blog.

KeymasterIt will happen sometime after WordPress and WordPress MU merge. So, not anytime soon.

ParticipantHi r-a-y thank you so much for your help!! Sorry it took so long for me to answer but at first i had no idea how to create a new page template but finally i slowly figured it all out and now it sort of works (its not exacly what i hoped for but i think it will do).
Here is what i did:
- I duplicated my current Page template giving it its own name.
- I duplicated all the “sidebars” (widget areas) i wanted giving them unique names so they only are displayed on the “Commuiny” page.
- I then create a new WordPress page and applied the page template i created in step #1.
- In the WordPress Widget admin i added the BP widgets i wanted to the different Sidebars.
- To get the widgets to look more like how they do on the BP Default Home Theme, i coppied some of the CSS and icons frome base.css to my current CSS.
Im pretty new and pretty sure i made some mistake or broke some kind of “best practice” so please correct me or suggest extra ideas!
Thank you!
