when setting ” register ” page as the homepage

    I set my “register” page as homepage in reading options, it’s a great addition in 1.5 to make things easier and it’s working so well, I just want to change the page that appear for logged-in users when they try to visit the “homepage” to activity, as it now show members page.
    to sum it up in a better way:

    new users>>see normal register page when visiting homepage.
    logged in user >> now they fall back to members page when visiting homepage, that is what I want to change for activity page.
    hope someone can help, I know it’s just one word to change but I can’t find where is this magic line :)

    I’d probably turn this upside down though rather than doing under settings > reading I’d have a home.php in your theme that depending on if logged in user or not directs to a different template page. Should accomplish the same thing but gives you more granular control.

    I think I put the redirect in. Not sure if it is filtered. Will update later.

    @karmatosed I thought perhaps the more native solution will be easier in updating and so, plus, I don’t know exactly how to accomplish your solution, you mean like creating a child theme and editing the index.php? BTW, do you know if there is a shortcode for buddypress register like the ones in bbpress?

    @djpaul I hoped the one who actually added the redirect see this topic, great you did :) will wait your update.

    It’s not easily filterable unless you want to duplicate a load of code, which I’d not recommend. Hmm. Make a enhancement request on trac asking for a filter, and I’m sure we can put it in for 1.5.1.

    karmatosed’s solution is also perfectly valid, so maybe go for that.

    Thanks so much Paul, line found finally, and did the job so well, and I posted a ticket too:
    https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3597

    I would love to use Karmatosed’s solution but as I wrote above, don’t know to accomplish that exactly.

    Thought I should post this for anyone who come by the topic until 1.5.1:
    in the file:
    bp-members/bp-members-signup.php
    Find:
    bp_core_redirect( bp_get_root_domain() . ‘/’ . bp_get_members_root_slug() );
    Replace:
    bp_core_redirect( bp_get_root_domain() . ‘/’ . bp_get_activity_root_slug() );

    or replace activity with any slug you want logged on user to be redirected to.

    FYI, this filter has been added, and will be in 1.5.1. See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5237

    @boonebgorges Thanks for this, I have another question, as a test, I installed 3.3 beta 1 today, and tried to install buddypress ( latest SVN version) but every time I click network activate it do nothing, the plugin is never showing as activated in the list of plugins or any further install instructions showing, is current svn not compatible yet with WordPress 3.3?

    The latest BP trunk is working fine for me on the latest WP trunk. Have you activated the plugin on a single blog first? If so, you might try deactivating it there first. If this is a test install, you might also try setting WP_DEBUG to true in your wp-config.php file, to see if any errors pop up during the activation process.

    @boonebgorges sorry, but when to find the errors exactly when seeting WP-DEBUG to true? I can’t find any place for them in admin page or website front.


    Boone Gorges

    @boonebgorges

    If you have WP_DEBUG (underscore, not hyphen) set to true, there will be a line in your wp-config.php that says
    `define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true );`

    Then, you will see warning messages at the top of the screen when something goes wrong.

    @boonebgorges I can confirm that buddypress 1.5.1 doesn’t work in WordPress 3.3 beta 1 with multisite install, I made a fresh install and that still doesn’t work or even activated, it doesn’t show any errors too. when you activate, it still show as unactivated in plugins list and no buddy-press install instructions appear.

    @boonebgorges just in case it make any difference, I’m testing on multisite with sub-domains, and trying to activate buddy-press normally on main blog.

    We don’t claim compatibility with WP 3.3 with BuddyPress 1.5.*. I expect it ought to work, however. BuddyPress 1.6, which we’re still building, will be verified to work with WP 3.3

    @boonebgorges

    Hm. Network activation doesn’t work for me at all with WP 3.3 trunk, with any plugin (not just BP). That doesn’t seem good.

    @djpaul

    I noticed that the other day, too, but I didn’t have time to check if it was just BP or not. Have you reported it?
