BuddyPress.org

Remember, BuddyPress is just one, big plugin–a very sophisticated plugin at that. If they have zero experiencing coding WordPress plugins, then here are some key links:

The forum link I provided is a free alternative to the premium plugins available at wpmu. I have not tried the suggestions in that link, so I do not vouch for them.

Your other option is the paid route: http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/rebranding-wordpress-mu

Not yet. In the future, but no ETA yet.

So what do you do, just place this in the plugins directory under wp-content, activate the plugin and then place the logo.gif file in that plugins directory? I’ve done that and its not working?

This is actually a WPMU question, but I think you should find an answer here: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=2042

I’m glad you’re back up and running.

Just in case you don’t know, phpMyAdmin is a MySQL administration tool. Whenever a task requires that you access your MySQL DB directly in the backend, this tool is what most WordPress developers and designers use.

Shakera-

If I understand your issue, you are having problems localizing BuddyPress into Cyrillic.

Please check this BuddyPress codex page first as there is a translation of BP for Bulgarian.

If you are making your own translation, then you should read the Translating WordPress codex page.

@Matew: You are right.

You might take a look at the Members-Only plugin from WordPress:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/members-only

It prevents anyone not logged from seeing the blog/site and directs them to the login page (or you can choose a different page).

Seems to work with WPMU, but you’ll have to test it on your site to be sure.

This plugin was working for me for adding menu items with a working selected class, the problem I was having was that it corrupted my wordpress admin so that everytime I posted something I got a blank white screen. Does anybody know how to fix this? is it a permissions issue on the plugin file?

limiting the users to one blog can be done with this handy plugin:

https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/limit-blogs-per-user.1.0.zip .

I’ve downloaded this plugin from here: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/invitefriends-plug-in/

I use BP 1.0.

1) unzipped to /wp-content/mu-plugins/ folder and there’s no Invite Friends section in Settings panel.

2) unzipped to /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/ folder and the same thing here, there’s no Invite Friends section in Settins panel.

What am I doing wrong?

1. Delete all tables created by bbPress from your database

2. Install bbPress without integration with wordpress

3. Login with Key Master

4. Go to admin tab

5. Do wordpress integration

Freaking Wildchild-

Well, what is surprising to me is that you were trying to debug this with plugins other than BuddyPress running. qTranslate is a WordPress plugin.

In the fifth post in this thread, Burt advised you to:

Disable all other plugins

I had been under the assumption from that point on –even with your new attempt at a fresh install–that you did not have any other plugins installed and activated other than BuddyPress.

When trying to debug something as complex as WPMU + BuddyPress, you need to remove as many variable from the equation as possible. That means, among other things, deactivating all plugins other than BP.

Anyway, it looks like you have your culprit narrowed down. I’d suggest contacting the qTranslate plugin dev and asking for help.

I’m sorry you’re having troubles with your theme folders. To be clear, I want to make sure that you realize that you were not, as you state:

advised to change my “bphome” name to preserve it in case of future BP upgrades.

I assume you’re talking about the discussion we had in this thread you asked:

I assume renaming the theme is simply changing the name of its folder?

I responded:

That is correct. Make a copy of the bpmember theme, rename your copy, make whatever changes you want to it, and you have–in effect–a custom theme! Just make sure you keep your new theme in the /wp-content/bp-themes/ directory.

Also, in this thread where I advised you to:

Follow the same procedure as before. Make a backup of the standard bphome theme, rename it to something new…

This means, rename your backup to something new, not change the name of the original theme folder.

Furthermore, as per a private conversation you initiated with me on May 6 via the members messaging system, I state that:

Make sure that you make a copy of both bphome theme and bpmember theme. Your customizations should be done in copies, not the original. That way, if you have issues with your custom themes (and we all do when working on customization), you can switch back to the standard BP themes to see how things should work.

And, as we were talking about CSS issues in that private message and you stated that you had WordPress theming experience, I assumed you knew that the primary style file in BuddyPress, style.css, would need to reflect your new theme’s name.

If you were confused by my advice, I do apologize. But, if you had done what I advised, you would have made a copy of the original theme and altered the copy. As I stated in my private message response to you, do not alter the original theme files.

Hi all,

I am currently in charge of Vietnamese l10n for WordPress, WordPress MU, WordPress.com, Gravatar, and BuddyPress is also maintained by me.

I started working on BuddyPress since its public beta, and I’ve been waiting for an official i18n repository, in the meantime, I uploaded the l10n files to repository of WordPress.

@Wpviet23: You can maintain your version apart, since I prefer keeping all terms in Automattic products synchronous, if you have feedback, please send me an email. Again thank you for your contribution.
