BuddyPress.org

Take a look at this page: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/conditional-template-tags/

Essentially, something like !bp_is_blog_page() will return TRUE when you are on any page that isn’t a WordPress blog page – i.e. when you are on any of the Social Network (BuddyPress) pages.

Alternatively, the default theme already embeds some class information in the body tag – although there is no single one for a BuddyPress page, so you’d have to catch all the different classes.

We cant get to your group forum because it’s private.

You groups forum link should be

http://gwspacesociety.org/wordpress/groups/students/forum/

If you can’t get to that link then you have a problem.

Most likely after the release of bbpress as a plugin then people will start looking into ways to enhance the forums. This is probably first quarter 2011.

PJ – Check out Heavy Analytics – http://heavyanalytics.com. It is a plugin that we are developing for this purpose. The purpose of the plugin is to give you actionable information about your WordPress/BuddyPress users. For example, it will help you figure out who the leaders in your community are, who the most active members of your community are, etc.

We will be releasing the public Alpha soon and would love to have you test it out and provide some feedback when it is ready! Just enter your email address into the sidebar of the Heavy Analytics site.

I don’t know of anyone who has integrated punBB and BP. Here’s a plugin to share logins between the two systems: http://www.rkblog.rk.edu.pl/w/p/punbb-and-wordpress-integration-plugin/. The group-level management stuff would probably have to be custom coded.

I’m not aware of anyone who has integrated a different forum software into BP that will meet your list of criteria, though maybe someone else in this forum has.

You can’t run BP on a wordpress.com site.

You would need to install your own copy of WP on your own domain and then install and activate BP.

This is more a WordPress question rather than a BuddyPress one – https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL – remember to back up your database first

Basically the answer is no. You can’t have multiple blogs unless you either have WordPress MU or WordPress MS. WordPress Single will still run BuddyPress but it won’t have any blogs.

BuddyPress forums are group based by default, so you could set each group up to be an office and each office would get its own forum. It would all come together on the forums directory. From what you wrote it doesn’t sound like you’ll be needing all the social networking that ships with BP, so WP MS (setting offices up as blogs) and a standalone forum (without BP) might be better suited to your needs.

This plugin seems to have the right aspirations

Hi @netweblogic. First requirement is that people can post events from the frontend, second is being able to set privacy levels for the events – public, for members only, etc, third is that at least one map can be attached to the event, etc. etc. etc.There are already a couple of feature-rich BuddyPress events plugins in the WP repo:
EventPress – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/eventpress/
Jet Event System – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/jet-event-system-for-buddypress/
Good luck.

looks like the group is private – so buddypress will redirect back to the main page (if someone is not a member)
