ParticipantMatew, thanks for this post.
The two changes (avatar display and linking to members page) are now implemented and released in version 0.7.3 so it should be easier for everyone to use the plugin with BuddyPress. Let me know here or over at the wordpress.org forums if you’d like anything else added…

MemberI have the exact same as Jsonb123 has.
When I look in my forum, I see that ‘Admin’ is ‘member’. And I’m 100% certain that I did set WP Admins to be Keymaster. How can I regain control?
Apart from that, I’m now strugling with keeping the session alive between WP MU & bbPress. The user database is used correctly, but I can’t seem to get to work within the same session. I had it working, yesterday night… Then I thought, perhaps the issue with Admin being a member could be solved by trying it one more time… Got me some extra trouble now

ParticipantI have also been looking for a stats plugin for WPMU/BP.
I wish I could figure out how to use statpress reloaded to work with BP. Thats what I use on my wordpress blogs.

codyb
ParticipantJust to let you guys know I fixed this my adding the plugin called Add Logo to Admin. It allows you to change the WordPress logo on the login screen to whatever you want and you can also change the image in the admin dashboard as well using this plugin. Very easy to install and very easy to use. Here is the link to the plugin http://bavotasan.com/tidbits/add-your-logo-to-the-wordpress-admin-and-login-page/
Just a sidenote, I was not able to utilize the onscreen upload function for the image. Even though I would upload the image it would not show up as an available image to select for the login screen. All I did was simply renamed my picture logo.jpg and stuck it in the directory of the plugin and it worked great. Hope this helps someone out down the road.

ParticipantPhil-
Okay, a couple of additional questions:
You state that permissions for blog.dir is set to 777 and it is owned by your FTP account. Is the owner of your FTP account the same as the owner of your html folder? If not, that may be your problem.
The error message you listed, “Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/”, can indicate several things including an improper virtual host set up. Are you on a dedicated server or a shared hosting account? I would contact your ISP and ask for assistance with this particular error.
Also, with regards to that error, if you’ve customized your .htaccess file, you might have inadvertently made some changes that could cause this issue. You can always try adding:
Options +Indexesto your .htaccess file, but that would not really help to determine why this error is being thrown in the first place. I would prefer that you get WPMU + BuddyPress functioning with the default .htaccess file.
Was WordPress Mu working without issue before installing BuddyPress?

ParticipantDo not use Servers such as Bluehost or Hostmonster to help install BuddyPress. It fails terribly. Do it manually by uploading WordPress MU into your server. Create a database by using MySQL Database, usually provided by the servers. Use the database to create a wp-config file for WordPress MU. They will guide you into installing WordPress MU. After, just use WordPress MU to find for BuddyPress. It will work. Remember to move the themes from the plugin folder to the theme folders (bphome).

Jeff Sayre
ParticipantSo i need to do away with the 3 column layout…Can someone give an small example of how to use widgets like online members,wire etc explicitly without using it as widgets
You are really asking for specific help on creating a custom, 2-column home theme that is hardcoded for outputting specific data without using widgets.
If you do not have previous theming experience, this is not something that can be shown to you with a “small example” or in a simple way.
You need to learn about WordPress theming. BuddyPress themes, after all, are just another type of WordPress theme. Here are some links to help you get started:
- Designing and Laying Out Your Theme
- Instead of hardcoding the output, you may want to design your theme to use the exisiting widgets. You can control some of the widget output with your own custom CSS. Widgetizing Themes
- Finally, to help you with CSS styling your custom theme, you should be using FireFox with the Firebug Add-on.
May 20, 2009 at 3:21 am #45691JsonB123
ParticipantHmm… I have these same versions and after changing doing the cookie integration and getting everything “set up” I can no longer access the back-end of BBPress. My user is no longer the ‘key master’ or admin for BBPress.
Let me break this down with some more detail, I really want to get this working!

Versions I’m using
- WPMU 2.7.1
- BuddyPress 1.0
- bbpress-1.0-rc-1
Steps
I got WPMU 2.7.1 and BuddyPress 1.0 installed fine so I’ll just skip that part entirely.
- As directed from multiple sources about integrating BBPress, I erased the Authentication Unique Keys from wp-config and then proceeded to log into the WPMU back end where it presented me with newly genereated ones for: ‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘AUTH_KEY’, AUTH_SALT, LOGGED_IN_KEY LOGGED_IN_SALT SECURE_AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_SALT
- I created a folder named ‘forums’ (I realize that this can be named whatever I want) and put all of the files from the BBPress 1.0 RC-1 in there.
- I went through the install steps, filling out the database info but skipping the ‘Integrate with WordPress’ steps in order to do this later in the BBPress admin panel.
- I get that all set up and go to the BBPress admin panel where I fill out the necessary info for integration with WordPress, sharing the same database, filling out the salts which are the same ones I used in wp-config.
- I put define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/domain/forums/’); into my wp-config file as directed by BBPress instructions.
- I also made sure that the AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, and LOGGED_IN_KEY in wp-config.php matched BB_AUTH_KEY, BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY and BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY in bb-config.php
Now, after doing all that I headed back to the admin panel for BuddyPress and filled out the information for integration with BBPress there. Now, when I go to my BBPress forums page and log in as my admin account on BuddyPress/WPMU I am not the admin on BBPress and thus cannot access the back-end. This isn’t the only problem, although it is the main one. I also cannot get my groups on BuddyPress to generate a forum topic when I try to do so it gives an error and says that it couldn’t.
I am going to attempt again with Trevor’s instructions but there are some fuzzy bits in there so I just want to make sure I’m attempting to do this correctly with the correct versions of WPMU, BuddyPress and BBPress. **Note that I cannot find any of the earlier Alphas on the BBPress site, so if I am using the wrong one…am I S.O.L.?

ParticipantPlease don’t post your jobs here. If you don’t get response, that means they are not available or they may not be aware of your post. Did you message the persons who offer the services?
Search for providers on major freelance site as well, in case those experienced on wordpress can take the job.

ParticipantI use it as substitute for default BP members widget. Mainly because without any code changes:
1. I can choose avatars size in px
2. Simple link avatars to blogs, their websites, member pages
3. There is possibility to chooce Sorting order (by posts number, registration date, login name, name display, user id…)
4. You can hide users by inserting their id
5. Choose to show users from selected blogs
6. Group by blogs
7. there are more features
I think it’s quite useful for those who don’t have much experience with loop and need simple customization widget.
Thanks bforchhammer to here is Changeset 118704 with possibility link avatars to bp member page.

May 19, 2009 at 12:13 pm #45651In reply to: New Twitter Plugin for BuddyPress
Scotm
Participant@M Sorry, I don;t have this configured, but you’ve pretty much hit on the head what I’ve been trying to do since integrating P2 with Buddypress. The best example I can find of how it might work is by somehow modding the Commentwitter plugin for use in the P2 postform versus its intended use with the WordPress comment form.
This plugin enables an ajax input form to appear below the comment form where users can add their Twitter settings if they wish to cross-post. I’ve tried to mod this for the P2 post form unsuccessfully to date but it might offer some insight.
Looking forward to helping any way I can if only testing.
Thx

ParticipantI don’t know if some bridge exists, you should search on google
‘bbpress phpbb bridge’ or ‘wordpress phpbb bridge’
if exists you could share users with wp and create a new community without loosing the old one

ParticipantFor the backend it’s simply a matter of adding another .mo file to the language folder in /wp-content to get wpmu to be multilingual, the same goes for any other plugins, they each have to have their own .mo file.
There is a great plugin available which makes translating plugins or even the the wpmu core itself easy, and allows you to do it a little at a time. CodeStyling Localization (I am not affiliated with them in the least, but it is more than great). It allows you to do localization for themes, plugins, mu-plugins, and wpmu base code itself, absolutely awesome.
http://www.code-styling.de/english/development/wordpress-plugin-codestyling-localization-en
For the front end and to allow different users of any of the blogs to change the backend easily and quickly I recommend qTranslate.
http://www.qianqin.de/qtranslate/
It is easy to use and easy to setup. Non-technical users will immediately know how to use this once it is setup. The setup may not be for non-technical users on their own, but a simple how-to will easily walk anyone through it. This plugin allows visitors to see multilingual content and change the language on the blog front-end (although I haven’t really used it for multilingual switching for the social networking portion of buddypress, I’ll have to play around and see what it can do).
Each blog can have it’s main language set in the the Settings/General page with the site wide default set in Site Admin/ Options (this is built in to wpmu, it doesn’t need a plugin – it’s been there from before 1.0 if my memory is correct).
I use English and Japanese (which will often not work when the localization is not done right) so I think these are pretty good plugins that work well with wpmu’s built in localization.

Participanti know i’m a bit late on that topic but i do agree that it should almost be a core feature to be able to switch language file.
I’m not talking about having the content translation feature, but the front/back end stuff, basically anything showing on the localization file.
So a user can decide his default language (among the available ones) for the site.
It only makes sense: MU for WordPress MU, for BuddyPress/WordPress MU, for MUlti users, for MUlti blogs and for MUlti language.
I’ve done some research and could not find a black/white solution. it’s seems to be in the grey zone at the moment.
Has anybody been able to achieve this yet?
cheers
