1. I’ll check about the invite tab, that is strange behaviour (I haven’t been able to to do that much as I have exams this week — I’ll be addressing all bugfixes for 0.1.2 from Monday onwards.
2. If an event creator invites someone, then the registrations get auto approved. If someone else (apart from the creator) invites people, then they get the “pending” status. ( I had assumed that anyone invited by the event-creator himself shouldn’t be given a pending status.)
Also, I’ve started using Google Code hosting for EventPress and related issues — that way I don’t have to keep checking this forum, the plugin forum, the wordpress plugin form (as EP also runs without BP) and my blog for feedback — http://code.google.com/p/eventpress/ . So, beyond this point, I’ll be checking the google project more often (and more of a chance to see a reply there).
I am also having this problem and I see no new information. Is there a fix?
In my installation, the Adminbar isn´t displayed on the login page. This is a function of WordPress … You could hide it for example with CSS.
i am already using buddypress plugin.Buddypress i am using in my theme folder as a part social communication but i need to display user details in wordpress custom template page .
i’m working on a rating & commenting website based on wordpress,buddypress,gdstarrating. it’s a starting point but i’d like to give it a modern look, banners, write some custom google charts based on ratings. it should work like imdb.com – post id like “barrack obama” will display all trends, comments, ratings changing in time and popularity changing in time. i want to write a firefox extension (toolbar or sidebar) to rate and comment and allow users to put ratings on theirs websites to allow external rating.
You’d have to create your own conversion script.
If Sharetronix offers some type of export functionality, this would probably make things a little easier, though you’d still need to build a script so WordPress / BuddyPress can parse it.
You’ll want to use Paul Gibbs’ Welcome Pack plugin for new users to have a bunch of default friends :
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/welcome-pack/
By default, Welcome Pack sends friend invites; to have the plugin auto-accept friend invitations, read this:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/standard-group-for-new-users#post-69096
For your other questions, please post them on the forum.
Hey – it worked! Thanks a go-zillion! I had temporarily abandoned this endeavor, going back to DNN… but it’s just not as intuitive as WordPress / BuddyPress, so I was was very happy to find that you’d posted this solution.
done. Actually the reason why i was looking at the code was to see if I could add a twitter feed e.g. `http://search.twitter.com/search.rss?q=wordpress` and somehow not have the forum icon showing in the activity feed but the icon of the original author of the “tweets”
this is in the google:image_link entry so I was thinking if “groups_record_activity” handles something like “avatar” , have to look in to it
After my first post, i’ve added some code my entry.php;
New entry.php is here: http://pastebin.com/Vz5A8SyJ
But with this code i must add a custom field which name is url, all my posts. And i’ve 306 posts on my blog and i don’t want to it. (I’ll install buddypress a live site using wordpress)
Is there any way to take the post permalink?
Yup, you create a theme using the BP files that are for WP like single.php and then link to the CSS in your BP folder. Then when you edit the default themes styles it automatically updates the secondary blog. I may even do one of these and upload to WP theme repo as it’s something that keeps getting asked about.
Good afternoon everybody!
I was wondering what would be the best route to go in creating a multi-language site with Buddypress.
Wordpress Version 3.01
Buddypress Version 1.2.5.2
Site is in English, and needs to be translated in both Russian and German.
Is this possible?
Cheers,
Reed
I just tried to activate buddypress and got these errors:
Warning: require_once(/mnt/Target01/324959/www.chronicleproject.com/web/content/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in/mnt/Target01/324959/www.chronicleproject.com/web/content/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/Buddypress/bp-loader.php on line 20

Thanks for your help
Is there a way I can use the bp-default theme for a non-Buddypress WordPress blog? I have a second blog that I want to match the look and feel of my Buddypress site but without the Buddypress functionality.
Thanks!

Hi,
Hoping someone can point me to a list of what is needed to make a WordPress Theme compatible with BuddyPress.
Essentially, what do I need to add to a WordPress Theme to make it work for BuddyPress.
Thanks,
Pat
Apologies for cross posting hnla. Here I’ve moved to a new topic and quote sections relating to my question below.

Jimboba said 1 hour, 38 minutes ago:
I’ve just experienced the same problem. Installation via WordPress ‘appears’ to be successful but when accessing BP interface I get ‘Page cannot be found’.
Checked the files via ftp and the ‘blogs’ folder that BP wants to access is empty except for a ‘media’ folder with a ‘.hidden’ file in it.
So it seems that the files were not copied to the correct location. Check the folder permissions and they are 755.
Using a new install of WP 3.0.1.
Anyone help?

Do not hijack threads please this practice is poor nettiquette. Problems may seem similar but often have different causes, having to answer two sets of questions in one thread can become confusing.
//- deleted section not relating to this question –/
@jimboba much the same for you to; the lack of files is vague you either have the necessary BP files or not forget the lack of files for the moment BP wouldn’t be running if it were missing files. check whether you are able to update .htaccess file correctly

Hi Hnla, thankyou for your reply.
With regards to the other thread i think that is solved now thankyou. Still having a few problems with the issue on this thread. I’m putting in the code you gave me in every place i can think of but still no luck. I hope it’s ok if i explain what i have done here and you can see if i’ve missed anything. Thank you in advance.
I have a members page on my wordpress/buddypress site – all working wonderfully. I have set up 3 other pages in wordpress which i want to show only specific members on. These pages are called DJs, Venues and Promoters. Each member when registering has to fill out the field of Business type. There are 3 business types – djs, venues and promoters. I want all the members who put in DJ on business type to show on the DJ page, the members who put venue as business type to go on the venue page etc.
So far i have 3 template .php files for each of the 3 pages. The code on the template pages is the same as the members.php file with the exeption of the directory name and the “ code. The loop directory here varies for each page.
With each of the loop directories i have copied the members-loop.php file and all i want to do is make each directory show its specific members. I’ve tried so hard to put in your code above into each of the respecitive loop directories but i’m obvoiusly missing something. Can you tell me where exactly i should be putting the code in each of these loop directories.
Many thanks!
You could hack together something like Lifestream fairly easily using https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-external-activity/. There’s no interface for it yet, but the infrastructure is all there.
Jeff Sayre has said that he’ll be releasing his Privacy Component shortly after 1.2.6 is released.
The kind of rich tagging you’re talking about really isn’t possible at the moment. Only when BP’s core components are converted into WordPress content types (like custom post types) will they be able to easily inherit WP’s taxonomy functionality. I’m guessing that will happen in the BP 1.4 range. The good news is that, once it does, tagging/categorization will be totally seamless.
The social features of BuddyPress are in addition to, not in place of, the ‘posting’ features of WordPress. If you set up a WP site so that users can write and publish new blog posts, BuddyPress won’t change that.
sorry hnla didn’t mean to cause any trouble by posting in another thread. I thought the two issues were slightly different. 1) to do with member directory and 2) to do with listing particular members on a certian wordpress page – not members page. will try above. Thank you.
I’ve a web site using wordpress. There are 4 categories and 306 posts. I want to install buddypress and i will create 4 groups. Groups and categories name will be same. And, when i write a post a category, it will show group activity.
I’ve tried External Group Blogs plugin but it show posts after 30 minutes, i want just in time. Any idea?
And, How can i show avatars only comments.
Thanks.
