BuddyPress.org

You can make use of widgets available in BuddyPress and WordPress.

Hi,

We had same problem when we moved our installation to WordPress MU + BuddyPress

So, I have developed a plugin for importing members to WordPress MU + BuddyPress installation.

It might be useful for you as well, please check it in https://buddypress.org/extend/plugins/

Yeh, it’s rocking out, nice work.

BTW, you missed out out installing wordpress mu video on the https://codex.buddypress.org/page – it’s been watched a few thousand times and we’re getting plenty of positive feedback so I hope its useful.

Here are some directions for backing up and restoring your wordpress db.

https://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database

I used it to convert my beta site to RC1. Pretty straight forward.

I like the sound of this.. privacy for members && groups…

I hope you would add this plugin to bpdev or wordpress.org for all to use?

1) Depends what you mean by “same login.” If the classified ads is part of another site, then you will have to see if you change mod that program to use the WordPress user tables for authentication.

2) Yes, it’s possible – just use the is_user_logged_in() function as a check.

Modifying $wp_filter and all those other vars is dangerous. These are wp internal vars that control the flow of function calls when wp does do_action() or apply_filters(). Changing their values can lead to unpredictable behavior.

Danger Will Robinson.

If you want to change the sequence of the actions and filters in wp or replace them with your own functions, there is a way to do this. remove_action() remove_filter() and the action priority parameter.

See: https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API

I ran into a big problem with avatars: images could be uploaded, but the crop box couldn’t be adjusted (it could only be found up in the lefthand corner of the image), when you cropped anyway and went ahead the image literally bounced around the page, and the uploaded images wouldn’t show up — I’d just get a black box.

The solution, as it turned out, was to look for plugins that might be causing the conflict. For me, the Litebox plugin for WordPress was causing the problem — deactivating it enabled everything to work just fine.

I wonder how tough it would be to use the same “Add Media” buttons that WordPress uses for it’s Quickpress thing. That seems like the ideal solution to me.

And a “post to wire” bookmarklet, same as the WordPress “Press This” but with a Friends selector. Hmmm

MD5 passwords will still work with WordPress, but they will be less secure.

You could try upgrading your site to MU but, personally, I would simply wait for the WP version of BuddyPress to arrive.

My guesstimate is that Andy will aim to coincide with the release of WP 2.8, currently scheduled for the beginning of April put will probably get pushed back to the middle of the month. He has said that the non-MU version of BP is almost ready to roll but I guess he wants to see how the release of the MU version goes first and, obviously, he isn’t going to release for 2.7 with 2.8 so close.

bp doesn’t control how or if registration emails are sent. It relies on wp to do that. It depends on your host and if you have wpmu configured properly. I signed up with your site and didn’t get an email either. So it’s not just you. Try the wpmu forums for help. https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/

Its an online art installation.

1) Think of a question, and type it in.

2) Pick up to three wooden boxes from the gallery floor.

3) The photo of the ordinary object inside represents the answer to your question.

4) Save your sandbox results and share them.

And soon the Results will go to my Buddypress profiles, not the old Vanilla ones.

(Buddypress is what inspired me to return to WordPress, after deserting to Vanilla.)

I’m even learning to code a little!

Thanks BP,

Amber

How hard do you think integrating BuddyPress into a site already running WP would be? Would it just be a matter of inserting php tags into where you would like certain features to appear? Or would it mean redesigning a whole theme so that it would work with BuddyPress?

I’m not much of a coder, but I know my way around. About how hard do you think integration with a WP theme would be?

i say…wait. BuddyPress will be released for WordPress (not MU) in a near future. I cannot say when, but the developers are working on this.

Here’s one option:

I used advance excerpt Plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-excerpt/

Activate and set the excerpt word number.

and place the <?php the_advanced_excerpt(); ?> in the index.php

This works for me.

I am trying this plug too http://www.dailyblogtips.com/homepage-excerpts-wordpress-plugin/

You should ask johnjamesjacoby about this migrate issue. He’s done something like that recently. I think the answer is you need to export your data, using phpmyadmin or with the native export/import tool in wp.

Lots of stuff if you google ‘wordpress export’, ‘wordpress import’

Wow, this is Codex worthy if you ask me. Good find Burt.

I found a solution, but I’m not a PHP programmer, It’s a hack of the code of this topic https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic.php?id=5930

Let’s go only if you are using the lasted trunk:

Open the mu-plugins/bp-blogs/bp-blogs-templatetags.php – Find this code starting at line 682 end at 696

<?php printf(__("By filling out the form below, you can <strong>add a blog to your account</strong>. There is no limit to the number of blogs you can have, so create to your heart's content, but blog responsibly.", 'buddypress'), $current_user->display_name) ?>



<?php _e("If you’re not going to use a great blog domain, leave it for a new user. Now have at it!", 'buddypress') ?>



<form id="setupform" method="post" action="<?php echo $bp->loggedin_user->domain . $bp->blogs->slug . '/create-a-blog' ?>">



<input type="hidden" name="stage" value="gimmeanotherblog" />

<?php do_action( "signup_hidden_fields" ); ?>

<?php bp_blogs_signup_blog($blogname, $blog_title, $errors); ?>



<input id="submit" type="submit" name="submit" class="submit" value="<?php _e('Create Blog &raquo;', 'buddypress') ?>" />



<?php wp_nonce_field( 'bp_blog_signup_form' ) ?>

</form>

Replace using this newbie code:

// One Blog Only HACK START

<?php $blogscheck = get_blogs_of_user($current_user->ID);

$blogarrayvalue = (get_object_vars($blogscheck[1]));

$blogsiteURL = "http://locutorpro.com.br";

if ($blogarrayvalue[siteurl] == $blogsiteURL)

{

echo "";

printf(__("By filling out the form below, you can <strong>add a blog to your account</strong>.", 'buddypress'), $current_user->display_name);

echo "

";

printf(__("If you’re not going to use a great blog domain, leave it for a new user. Now have at it!", 'buddypress'));

echo "

";

echo "<form id='setupform' method='post' action='";

echo $bp->loggedin_user->domain . $bp->blogs->slug ;

echo "/create-a-blog'>";

echo "<input type='hidden' name='stage' value='gimmeanotherblog' />";

echo do_action( "signup_hidden_fields" );

echo bp_blogs_signup_blog($blogname, $blog_title, $errors);

echo "<input id='submit' type='submit' name='submit' class='submit' value='";

printf(__("Create Blog &raquo;"));

echo "' />

";			echo wp_nonce_field( 'bp_blog_signup_form' );

echo "</form>";

}

else

{

printf(__("Sorry, you can have 1 blog only.", 'buddypress'));

}

?>

// One Blog Only HACK END

I hope it help!

Thank you for all dev team!
