Topic: month names not translated
Hi,
I’m running a german BuddyPress community and thus using the German language file.
It works fine except for the translation of the month names in the profile: the date of birth and the date when a private message was sent still show the English month names. Other plugins, such as GigPress, use the German names.I can change the date format (such as j. F Y), but that “F” still shows the English month.
In the German language file of BuddyPress the month names are as well translated (e.g. “Juli” instead of “July”) as in the one of WordPress itself.
I searched the whole BuddyPress installation and found the English names in bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-templatetags.php, too, so I translated them in this file. I also translated them in wp-includes/locale.php
But still the English month names show up…?!The functions of the message date is:
(my-buddypress-theme/members/single/messages/message-loop.php)Does anyone know why BuddyPress won’t use the German month names and how to change that?
Thanks,
neontraumaBeen stuck on this issue for about a day now. Ive installed a clean install of wordpress / buddypress and all sub pages (groups, forums, members) do not work. I receive page cannot be found.
I found this resouce http://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/install-buddypress-on-a-secondary-blog/ which tells this is for network mode. I am not using network mode.
Any ideas or resources I should be using to install this on a sub domain?
I thought it would be most useful for the BP community if I posted a link to our new site – then answer any questions and post tutorials and code snippets as the need arises.
The site – http://skiddnet.com – is an automotive social community that is designed to support our other automotive properties – SkiddMark (editorial/magazines) and SkiddPlayer (the largest branded content platform for automotive videos). You can find links to these sites in the footer.
I built SkiddNet originall on Webligo’s social engine 3 platform (using Smarty templates & PHP), then redeveloped it on social engine 4 (Zend PHP). Unlike Buddypress, social engine is a paid product and most of the add-ons and plugins are also paid with a huge amount of nulled software that makes it a minefield if you try looking for code snippets. There’s very little documentation and little sharing between developers and therefore coding standards are highly variable.
So here we have the site now redeveloped on Buddypress.
The basic premise of SkiddNet is to foster the creation of quality editorial content, so we are using Paul’s achievement plugin to reward this behavior.
The site adopts a multisite configuration based on the bpdefault theme, but using a bespoke theme for user blogs. Both themes use the wootumblog plugin to create posts using the wordpress post taxonomies (aside, video, image, quote etc..) and posts are aggregated across the network into the main site using WPMU sitewide tags plugin. This is the part that I’m least happy about – it’s still pretty clunky and I’m still working on debugging it.
I also use a series of custom functions to grap images from posts and display on index pages (although there are a few bugs that I’m still fixing on this too).
All of the design and features are contained in a child-theme of bpdefault, so it upgrades effortlessley (the recent upgrade to BP1.29 went smoothly). I have also redesigned the WP admin with changes made to menu items, dashboard widgets, login page and the header and footer.
I have also developed our own BP admin bar – which is now fixed at the bottom of the screen.
You’re welcome to take a look around and then pick my brains on how particular features were created – I’ll try and answer as many questions as I can and share any custom code.
We’re in the snagging phase ironing out the remaining bugs, so if you spot something and can suggest a fix I’d be most grateful to hear from you.
Thanks
I made the theme I’d like to use (called pride and joy BTW) BP compatible, thanks to the plugin.
Unfortunately, being completely new to this kind of thing, I have no idea how to make it work like a normal buddypress plugin would. How do I get all the tabs back with “community” & etc.?[not related, but I’d appreciate answers]
Also, how hard do you think CSS is to learn to the extent in which you can design your own child theme?
What programming language do I use to create a more customized experience on my site?@lschnellinger search can easily be done via google in the meantime e.g. “buddypress.org memory limit”

Feel free to help out, 6 more tickets left for BP 1.3 https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/roadmapHi everyone. Forgive me if this subject has already been addressed. I can’t find the topic anywhere here.
My site is new and still being set up. As part of this process, I’ve had friends attempt to sign up and build profiles. Trouble is, they are not receiving emails verifying their membership. As many of you know, this means they can’t log in using the username and password they’ve created. I, on the other hand, can see their profile and user information in the User section of my dashboard.
I contacted my hosting company and this is the reply i received:
Dear Customer,
Thank you for your email. You will need to create an email address from your domain name hosted here. As long as we are hosting email for that domain there is not any additional cpanel steps you will need to take. However you will need to login to your dashboard and set the from email address to one hosted here, this will allow the verification emails to go out from that address. The hostname for that mail script should be localhost and the port 25.
Thank you,
Michelle
Level I Tech Support EngineerI understand what she’s asking me to do. Trouble is, i can’t find anywhere in WordPress or Buddypress to make these changes. I any of you have an answer or can point me to a forum discussion that’s already taken place on this topic, I would deeply appreciate it.
Thank you,
