BuddyPress.org

I’m using this one (found it on mu.wordpress.org/forums). I’m having problems creating new blogs, but I’m not sure if it’s nginx causing the problem (it works fine with wpmu):

server

{



listen			80;

server_name		DOMAIN.COM	*.DOMAIN.COM;



access_log 		/usr/local/nginx/logs/DOMAIN.COM.access.log;

error_log 		/usr/local/nginx/logs/DOMAIN.COM.error.log;



# rewrite rule for files



location	~*	^.+.(xml|jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js|swf)$

{

root		/home/web/DOMAIN.COM/www;

rewrite		^/files(/.*)$	/wp-content/blogs.php?file=$1	last;

expires		10d;

break;

}



# rewrite rule for sitemap under the lines that handles upload files



rewrite ^(.*/)?sitemap.xml wp-content/sitemap.php;



# rewrite errors



location	/

{

#auth_basic "Restricted";

#auth_basic_user_file  /etc/nginx/htpasswd;

root		/home/web/DOMAIN.COM/www;

index		index.php;

error_page	404	= /index.php?q=$uri;

}



#send php requests to fast cgi



location	~	.php$

{

fastcgi_pass		127.0.0.1:9000;

fastcgi_index		index.php;

fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME    /home/web/DOMAIN.COM/www$fastcgi_script_name;

include				/usr/local/nginx/conf/fastcgi_params;

}



}

if you add bp tables in the new db it’s not a problem

In theory the idea is to be able to export from MU and import to .org, but I’ve personally never had much success with the import/export proceedure.

You should think of a home theme as just a standard WordPress blog theme. It is no different other than a few new files to handle directories.

A member theme is a “BuddyPress” theme, and should probably be called that.

You should treat them as two entirely different themes, your WordPress theme should have the styles and images for just the WordPress parts and your BuddyPress theme should have the styles and images for just the BuddyPress parts.

You could of course still provide the two themes in one download package, but they should still work independently. It’s not a good idea at all to make the themes dependent on one another. Someone may want to use your member theme but keep their own blog theme.

I’ll be writing more docs on this soon.

Why does wordpress mu add “?ver=1.2.6” to jquery.js?

I’m getting a 404 when clicking the ajax widgets (with permalinks on) … could the ?ver= cause this?

WordPress has always allowed for multiple ways to access a specific post, even if your permalink structure is setup in a specific way.

More than one way to get to the same link, and both are valid, and both could lead Google down different paths to the same destination. Granted, this is on a non-MU install, but MU suffers the same fate, only with multiple blogs.

Without having /blog or /news or /something there, now you’re opening up the risk of having overlapping post/page slugs. If you write a blog entry named “members” what would you want to happen? Goto the blog post, or BuddyPress’s members page? Multiple that times 100 individual minds blogging outside of your control, and you see how that can be dangerous.

Trust me when I say that I understand what you’re saying, I do, and I can see how this could be something to consider when making the move to use MU and/or BuddyPress, but Google can recover quickly and so can your 5000 posts if they’re important and relevant.

Also, just for fun, lets goto…

and then…

http://delsolownersclub.com/2009/02/09/del-sol-mugen-side-steps/

Looks like both take you where you need to be?

Not quite ready to mark this one green, but it looks like a correctly installed BuddyPress/MU won’t give you this problem…

I want this done,Kaltura to port over to BP : https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-video-pack/

Would be a good answer to server loads because users can upload videos to 3rd party host and not yours that would save you server performance and storage issues!

Does anyone know what would be the best way to get this level of integration of blogs and buddy press?

+1 – Great read.

Often i have moments of reflection on just how incredible software is becoming these days.

I’m amazed at the collective effort that is put by people that usually just get involved because it makes them tick.

I’m sure most of them / us have families and do a lot of this in spare time. That is impressive.

The best software is always produced out of communities or dev teams that place their trust in a community to help out. Most of the time the people involved are the community which is great compared to what was happening 20 years ago.

Well, if I understand correctly it certainly seems possible, considering its pretty much the way that WordPress installation goes.

You install WordPress and are provided a login (“admin”) and a randomized password.

If you’re looking for code to try to tap into, or an example of how to go about it, that would be where I would look first?

The next step in your theory would be to consider how to handle spam registrations in the event that user never sees the pw and never logs in to your website. Maybe take a look at the Register Plus plugin for WordPress.org to get some ideas also?

Make sure you submit this to the WP plugin repo and tag it with “BuddyPress” in your readme file.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/

http://webomania.wordpress.com/2006/10/01/out-of-range-value-adjusted-for-column-error/ <- this is actually the solution right here. I dont know how it works, but it fixed my problem completely.

First, read this webpage:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API#Actions

That’ll explain the basics of hooks and filters. If you want to know which hooks are in BuddyPress, scan through the source code and look for do_action() functions as well as apply_filter() functions, those are your hooks, and you can “hook” into them using the functions add_action() and add_filter() respectively. I don’t think there’s too much documentation around for BuddyPress hooks, so it’s best to look into the file/function you want to extend and find your hooks.

Fix for bb-config.php when using “deep integration”

How to currently, correctly include WordPress within bbPress and NOT throw a 404 in IE.

Add to beginning of bb-config.php:

if ( !defined('ABSPATH') & !defined('XMLRPC_REQUEST')) {

define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);

include_once( '/absolute/path/to/yourdomain.com/wp-blog-header.php' );

header("HTTP/1.1 200 OK");

header("Status: 200 All rosy");

}

@Matt, I think that if it’s partially working, than chances are something is amiss somewhere. Are you using deep integration or no?

I am supposed to NOT CHECK >>

Add cookie integration settings

If you want to allow shared logins with an existing WordPress installation.

>> right?

I gave some thoughts to this topic and my conclusion so far is, that it would be the best solution to set up a WPMU + Buddypress System for each language. The only thing that would be needed is a Plugin that shares the Userdata between these systems. A user who signed up on your swedish installation of WPMU + Buddypress should be able to use this account for your english version too and so on.

One could do it as on wordpress.com, where wordpress.com is the main website. If You choose a different language, say german (.de) you get redirected to de.wordpress.com and only german content will appear.

devweb, sorry about the little thread jacking

There is a plugin on WPMU Dev ( http://wpmudev.org/project/default-user-role ) that allows admins to set the default user role on signup. There’s also this plugin ( http://agapetry.net/news/introducing-role-scoper/ ) that seems to offer significant role customization in WP. However, I cannot find this particular plugin in the WP repositry so beware.

You may also get some useful ideas from this thread on the Mu forums: https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic.php?id=8217

Granted, these are all WPMU-specific ideas, not BuddyPress. But Mu is the platform on which BP sits, so this may be of some use if you’re planning to code your own solution.

(i use wordpressmu 2.65, buddypress svn version more recent than RC1, italian localization)
