Blog-Bug?

I am not sure, if this is a bug and if anyone else is experiencing this:

If someone created a blog and set privacy to private, it doesn’t appear in the activity-feed etc and in his profile unser “blogs”. That’s good, and the way it should be…

But if he changes the privacy-setting, it still does not appear… That should not be! But I am not sure if it’s not working in every case or just in some strange ones…

I have exactly the same issue here. Don’t know why, but at my test setup (http://www.dutch-dig.com) the blog entries at http://robert.dutch-dig.com are not shown in robert’s user profile. At first the blog was set to private. I’ve changed that to public and still roberts blog is not shown.

If both of you are experiencing this then one of you should report it in trac.

Upon looking to see if anyone has the same issue as me, I found this thread. Here is my thread https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/sitewide-activity-and-sitewide-post-problems

Have anyone finally fixes this yet?

My issue? New users sign up, their blog’s privacy is set to private even though in sign up page they set it to public. After first time log in, users can set the blog to public privacy again. It’s bothering me when blog is not public even though users want it to be when first sign up, this means when they write a blog post, it will not appear in sitewide posts widget! Also when other users visit a member that has private blog, there will be an error says that “[membername] has not created any public blog.”

I’m using buddypress 1.0.3 and wpmu 2.8.4a

Are you using a MU plugin that overrides the blog privacy option such as “New Blog Defaults”?

I’m using “First Comment” from http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/first-comment

is similar to New Blog Defaults I think. Please tell me if you know how to fix this… thanks.

Hi Arghagain,

That plugin doesn’t look like it adjusts any privacy blog options.

So you should be safe!

It looks like something else (or some other plugin) is causing your problem.

Up until an hour ago, this thread had not seen any activity for over 7 months. There have been many significant changes to the BP codebase since then. So, whatever issues the OP may have had will surely not apply to the current BP version.

Arghagain, please read this thread for your information.

I’m closing this thread as it is too old to be of use for additional discussion.
