I was thinking that it might be worthwhile to build a script that tries to correct such problems, but wanted to get some feedback first. It's the sort of process that could potentially be built into the core in one of a few ways: either an automatic check that takes place when BP attempts to load a group's data/post a new item, or a button on the Forum Setup dashboard panel. It could easily be a plugin or independent script too, but I'm posting here in the chances that others have had the problem and think it might be worthwhile to have something in BP itself. Anyway, it would likely work with the following logic: If a group has forums enabled but no forum_id metadata, check to see whether there is a bbPress forum by the same name. If so, record that forum id to the group; if not, create a new forum and then record the metadata. This doesn't address whatever might be the underlying cause of the problem might be. Perhaps it has no place in core for that very reason.

In practice, this means that it was created in a hidden or private group, but in theory it could be for any reason. We should stop using hide_sitewide for this purpose. It causes lots of problems. Here are just the few I could find in a couple minutes' search: http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2678 http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3463 http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2293 The only real surefire way to protect content in hidden/private groups is to do the proper queries at runtime. We might use logic like this in the activity query: {{{ $non_public_group_ids = ids of all groups that are non-public if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { $this_user_group_ids = ids of all this user's groups select from activity table where ( component != 'groups' OR item_id NOT IN ($non_public_group_ids) OR item_id IN ($this_user_group_ids) ) } else { select from activity table where ( component != 'groups' OR item_id NOT IN ($non_public_group_ids) ) } }}} This is going to make our query a bit slower, unfortunately. But we can aggressively cache the values of $non_public_group_ids and $this_user_group_ids, so that persistent caching will mostly eliminate those two queries. Again, this is the only way to be really certain about this privacy stuff, so I think we have to do something like it. hide_sitewide has sorta worked up through now, but only just barely, and only through some hacks. Let's do it right, so that when and if we introduce finer-grained activity controls in BP core we will already have an example of how it ought to be done. Let's talk about this early in the 1.7 cycle. It's something that's bothered me since I started using BP, so I would be happy to take it on as one of my tasks." boonebgorges Active Tickets 3590 Who's online widget quick to show me not online.

This is fine for the blogs component, but we should have a more general solution for post types. I suggest a solution with two parts: - default support for all CPTs. That is, we hook to save_post and catch everything that is *not* 'post', and we do it regardless of whether the BP Blogs component is enabled. We can get the singular term for the post type, which we'll need to guess at the ""Boone edited the x..."" activity action, out of the post type labels. - Have an easy way to turn off support for activity tracking of post types. Though generally I know we like to avoid admin screens, I think that an all-purpose Activity admin panel would be useful in allowing admins to toggle activity tracking on *any* kind of activity. The list of activity types would be populated by all of our core activity types (activity_update, joined_group, etc), and also by the create/edit actions of all registered post types. At the very least, we will need filters to allow the latter to happen with plugins. But I think that this would be a popular enough feature (going by the 80% rule) that we should consider an options panel. Probably we would also want to include support in the activity filter dropdown for the create/edit actions for registered post type that has activity posting disabled. Once we get into the next dev cycle, I can work up a rough sketch of what I'm suggesting, in the form of a plugin. (at least the CPT stuff, anyway) I'd love to get feedback first, though.

(a simple conditional) I dont have a whole patch file but I do have a working example: from bp-members-template.php line 746 {{{ function bp_get_displayed_user_nav( $args='' ) { global $bp; if ($args['exclude']) { foreach ($args['exclude'] as $key => $value) { $exclude[$value] = true; } } foreach ( (array)$bp->bp_nav as $user_nav_item ) { if ( !$user_nav_item['show_for_displayed_user'] && !bp_is_my_profile() || $exclude[$user_nav_item['slug']] ) continue; if ( $bp->current_component == $user_nav_item['slug'] ) $selected = ' class=""current selected""'; else $selected = ''; if ( $bp->loggedin_user->domain ) $link = str_replace( $bp->loggedin_user->domain, $bp->displayed_user->domain, $user_nav_item['link'] ); else $link = $bp->displayed_user->domain . $user_nav_item['link']; echo apply_filters_ref_array( 'bp_get_displayed_user_nav_' . $user_nav_item['css_id'], array( '
- ' . $user_nav_item['name'] . ' ', &$user_nav_item ) ); } } }}} And to Call it: {{{ array('profile' , 'settings'))); ?> }}} This example works as expected. Maintains the URL's and Slugs but removes the items from the nav menu without effecting $bp.

I suggest we improve the UI of these kind of error-messages: - ""Please enter some content to post"" (When you forget to type something in the textfield) - ""There was an error sending that message, please try again"" (In Messages) - Ect. Suggestions: - When there's an error, the message should always be either a drop-down-bar from the absolute top of the site or a simple div-popup in the middle of the site. That way the error-messages won't throw around with other design elements (like pushing down other elements) in order to make room for the error-message. This does not look or feel good. - If choosing the div-pop you can click outside it to make it go away or click a ""dismiss"" link. - If choosing the drop-down-bar, the bar will slide down and you will have to click the ""dismiss"" link or correct your error on the site in order to make it disappear. The bar should be colored (eventually light yellow or red) in order to gain user attention. Other notes: - It will be easier to style the site from the included template since you don't have to worry about error messages that push around other elements.

Was thinking it would be very useful to keep a history(activity stream) of all notifications. Currently notifications' landing pages take you to the source pages, so there's not history trail to refer back to.
this would also serve as a nice place to house other WP notifications like comment approvals, publishing of your posts, comments subscriptions, plugin update alerts, etc, and it would also be nice to include a record of all the BP public notices published by the admin.
I just imagine its making it easier for the user to have a log of something like this to always easy access to, currently i think things like friend requests get lost if the user doesn't act on it the first time they view a notfication.

On that note, here are two different proposals:
1) Don't ask for a root_slug at all from component classes. Just take a moment in BP_Component::setup_globals() to get it out of $bp->pages.
2) Use the value out of $bp->pages as a default
I think that we can safely go with (1), but IMO the least we can do is (2). (FWIW, I think that (2) can - and should - be slipped in for BP 1.5, while there is not enough time for (1).)

Active Tickets 3625 Core functions should not hook to bp_init with default priority Core 1.5 Future Release enhancement new 2011-09-26T17:41:25Z 2013-04-29T17:08:01Z "I had a good discussion on ticket #3622 about the bp_init hook and plugins. Conceptually, I think that the idea behind bp_init is to let plugins attach certain actions to a point in the load order when they can be sure that BP's core functionality has been fully loaded. This mostly works - bp_setup_globals, bp_setup_nav, and other initialization hooks all happen before bp_init priority 10. However, there are a few important places in BP where we use priority 10, with the result that if a plugin happens to be loaded by WordPress *before* BP is, those hooks could fail to find the corresponding action. To wit:
bp_core_load_admin_bar_css()
bp_core_load_buddybar_css()
bp_core_admin_menu_init() (initializes the admin menu loader)
bp_core_add_ajax_hook() (creates the wp_ajax_ hooks on the front-end that WP has by default on the back end)
bp_core_wpsignup_redirect() (redirects users away from wp-signup.php when BP is installed)
There are also some places in the friends component where we hook to bp_init, but IMO that's not as crucial, since our optional components essentially operate like plugins anyway.
I propose that all of the above function be moved from bp_init priority 10 to 8 or 9. This will obviously need some thorough testing (though I'm pretty certain that making these particular functions fire a bit *earlier* is not going to hurt anything). I'll post a patch." boonebgorges

These would allow the group creator to select which additional setup steps should be shown subsequently. Eg,
Group Extras

Active Tickets 3797 Refactor database methods to accept array-style arguments Core Future Release enhancement new 2011-12-05T20:06:20Z 2012-09-08T03:12:40Z "Right now, most of our database methods take a long list of arguments, eg

This is hard to read, and makes developing and troubleshooting more troublesome than it ought to be. Accordingly, where possible, these methods should be refactored so that if an array is passed as the first argument, the rest of the arguments are ignored and we parse the passed array with a set of defaults using wp_parse_args().
The same is true of some of the template class constructors (BP_Activity_Template::__construct(), etc).
We probably should *not* formally deprecate the old way of passing arguments, as WP's _deprecated_argument() will essentially break any plugin that makes direct calls to these classes.

Active Tickets 3819 Create An Activity Lookup Table (better to call it a reference table) Core Future Release enhancement new 2011-12-08T20:07:55Z 2011-12-14T20:45:11Z "There are a few instances where BuddyPress stores data that are not easy for a developer to utilize in specific, meaningful ways. One such case is that of activity groups and their associated actions. These get stored in memory in the $bp->activity object array (the $bp->activity->actions subelement for action items). These crucial data are not stored in the database. It could be viewed as phantom data that is internally hardcoded into the core code.
Instead of using lookup tables, key/value pairs are used to store activity datasets in object arrays that are rebuffered into memory each time a page is loaded. Hardcoding data like this can make it very difficult, if not impossible, for 3rd-party plugins to interact consistently with and store meaningful data based on this internal data.
Why is this an issue? If activity data is changed in the future -- via a change in the hardcoded activity group names or activity action names -- any stored data (in a 3rd-party plugin’s table) that counts on a particular activity item to have a particular name could lose integrity.
For instance, the “New friendship created” activity item (action) which was internally coded as the action “friendship_accepted” in an older of version of BP, was renamed to “friendship_created” in Changeset 1749. This single change could have caused data instability in any 3rd-party plugin that utilized the older activity items in their custom tables.
This method of storing activity data in memory (arrays) was implemented in this [http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/1749 BP Trac ticket]. It was an attempt to offer a mechanism with which to manage activity privacy. But after much testing and trial and error, this solution did not present any easily-accessible, stable method to manage activity privacy on a user-by-user basis. To make this method work for my component BP Privacy, I would have had to either add a special column to the privacy table just for this single piece of datum or create an entirely separate table solely for activity privacy. Even then, the data stored in that table could not be counted on remaining accurate (as detailed above).
''On a side note: It is interesting to note that all activity actions, except the single one coded for the friends component, are used in the the activity stream table. However for the friends component, the stored activity action of “friends_register_activity_action” is not used. Instead “friendship_created”, an action that is not officially registered with the $bp->activity->actions array, is used. This should be changed.''
It is crucial to offer unique identifiers for all core pieces of datum. With a unique identifier for activity data -- based off of the proposed activity lookup table’s auto-incremented ID field -- it would be more unlikely that any activity data stored via 3rd-party plugins could become orphaned in the future by changes made to BP core’s values.
As an example, the Xprofile component offers unique field group IDs and field IDs by virtue of the auto-incremented ID field in their respective database tables. The Group component does so as well. But BP’s activity component does not offer unique numeric identifiers for activity groups nor activity actions. Instead, each activity item is stored in volatile memory. This makes it difficult for a developer to count on activity item data to never change.
Currently, a developer wishing to offer customized activity filtering based on BP core’s activity names or activity actions must create their own way to uniquely identify and index activity items. Since activities and their associated actions are not stored in a table in the database, there is no safe and stable way to assure that a particular piece of activity datum will not change in the future.
Instead of storing activity groups and their associated activity actions in volatile memory, I propose that BP switches to using an activity lookup table. See the attached image for an example.

I get the reasoning behind this - you'll never need the Edit or Change Avatar item on profiles other than your own. But it limits extensibility for developers. See eg http://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/bp_core_new_subnav_item-wont-create-item-under-profile-section/ Moreover, xprofile is the only component where we do this, which makes development inconsistent.
If we're concerned about the wasted screen real estate in showing a subnav that only has a single item ('Public'), then perhaps we could replace the bp_is_my_profile() check with a different kind of (optional) check, which only displays the subnav when there's more than one item. Regardless of whether we do something like this, I think it's a good idea to remove the bp_is_my_profile() check (and double check that the Edit and Change Avatar items are only visible to the current user/super admin, which I'm pretty sure they already are)." boonebgorges

Active Tickets 4076 Use transients for expensive activity queries Activity Future Release enhancement new 2012-03-13T19:48:27Z 2012-03-13T23:37:58Z "In light of tickets like #4045, I would like to suggest that we implement some smarter caching of popular and complex activity queries. wp_cache is nice, but it will have no effect on someone not using a persistent object cache. Using transients, on the other hand, will have a small cost in terms of database storage, but a potentially huge payoff even for installations on relatively modest setups.
So, here's what I'm thinking. Cache at the level of bp_has_activities(). Pass everything through a wrapper function (like bp_update_activity_transient()), which will allow admins/plugin devs to decide just how many different kinds of activity queries get cached in this way. By default, cache the following:
- The main activity stream firehose, maybe through the first five pages
- The main activity stream filters (New Blog Post, Updates, etc), first couple pages
- Each user's activity stream, first couple pages
- Each group's activity stream, first couple pages
We can build transient keys out of a hash of the relevant bp_has_activities() parameters.

I am sure that usually this assumption holds, but I can envision (and have encountered) a number of circumstances where this would not be the case, for example, support forums where only premium users can ask for help but where any user can read from existing threads. Or in my case, the client wants to have a ""Donors-only"" forum where only the organization's donors can discuss but anyone can view... it's the ""broadcasted-town-hall-meeting"" idea.

It's the heart of any web application and one of the most difficult parts to build ...because it must be reliable, secure, and extremely fast.
In BuddyPress, the functions in the /bp-core/bp-core-catchuri.php file (combined with various code strewn about the plugin) serve as the page router.
As part of building BP-Media, our team performed a detailed audit on BP's page router code. Although when *tested by humans* the code appears to work properly, when we instrumented and traced it, we found some serious problems:
1) It can't handle URI's with repeated tokens ""example.com/foo/bar/foo""
2) It runs excessive numbers of queries
3) It's very CPU intensive
4) It has no caching
5) Its impossible to unit test
6) Nobody understands how it works
So we've written you a new router class, with the following benefits:
1) It correctly handles any URI
2) It uses 1 query per page load instead of 5 (best case) or 20 (typical) or hundreds (site with dense page hierarchy and lots of blogs)
3) Uses 40% less CPU cycles per run
4) Includes full unit tests (once you add the Unit Test suite we've built for you, attached in another SVN ticket)
5) It supports caching (once we discuss how you'd like to implement it)
6) It includes an advanced error handling system that fully integrates with the unit tests (we'll post the utilities libraries to let you print the error traces to your browser in another ticket)
7) It has great documentation.
This patch is current as of an hour ago, and cleanly applies to the 1.6 trunk.
Enjoy!

Active Tickets 4142 Add xprofile fields in bp_get_users Members 1.5.4 Future Release enhancement new 2012-04-11T19:23:33Z 2012-04-11T20:07:39Z "While working on a pretty large site Im running a large import of users (20,000+) and I'm afraid of going down the wrong path.
Core WP lets me define any user_meta I want in the meta table, but this data isn't then tied back to xprofile data so its not easy to display on profiles. It does however let me use get_users() which I can then query that meta data and return an array of users.
Which for example I wanted to pull everyone with the state of TX is very easy. If this data was xprofile data its hard to query that data.
Looking at bp_core_get_users it already joins the xprofile table so converting off from ""meta_key""/""meta_value"" to ""field""/""value"" shouldn't be too bad.
This would allow a single bp_get_users() to pull users based upon their profile data.
In the mean time I'm adding meta AND xprofile data which is redundant but a stop gap until I can either code my own query or bp adds one. " DennisSmolek

I have for the past several months been receiving several spam / fraud accounts through buddy press via my website Goodforsociety.com Is there or shouldn’t there be an area to set the security up for usernames, passwords, and first and last name fields? Example I should have a place to add and edit items I believe should not be allowed such as in the name field first name and last name I should be able to say in this field that numerical characters such as 1,2,3,4 etc cannot be used and or alphabetical characters in sequence like abcd of aaa, zzz, ddd making the user use their actual name. In the password field I should be able to say must contain one numerical and capital letter and password must be a minimum of 8 characters etc.. Also there should be a setting for email criteria so you can ad and edit a list you create that you consider to be invalid or false and or fraudulent accounts. For example I might would say any email that is aajjaajjaajj@123.com is not a valid email account.
Spam today is horrible and there isn’t much you can do about it if you don’t have these features available so we buddy press users can add to a growing list we create thus making our sites more and more and more secure.
Also there isn’t a feature I can see that allows me to say I don’t want users to use html in there post and or activity streams. there should also be a list you can add words to that you don’t want to have on your site say if your site is pg13 then I should be able to exclude words like ass, and f@#@ck from being used via there profiles. Wordpress has this feature for comments!
Can you assist me in trying to fix these issues? I receive 15+ fake spam accounts a day.

Since spammers seem to sign-up in bunches, I don't want to keep them in the wp-users table if their data is wiped. So I use a separate table (auto-increment id & email).

First of all thanks a lot for your hard work!
It seems quite strange to me that blog comments are not comments in activity stream. They are updates in activity stream. Let me explain my thoughts.
All test are done on testbp.org
For example, I make a comment on a blog post (please look at attached img1.png).
Then I see my comment as an update in activity stream (attached img2.png)
But I can't see my comment as a reply on the post in activity stream (please look at img3.png).
So we have 2 different streams of comments on the same blog post.
Currently I'm choosing a social network script for a project and such behavior completely confused me.
BTW other SN scripts don't use such logic but I love WP platform that is why I decided to ask about it here.

1. Get rid of 'Public Message' button. It has no context in that location. It appears between 2 buttons that do have context, Friendship & Private Message.
2. It seems rather clunky to have 'Private Message' take you away from the profile you're viewing.
On a custom build, I've changed that to an overlay and member reaction was very positive. I did it all the markup in.../members/single/member-header.php
and then call a function in bp-custom.
Click the button and the overlay appears. In the overlay, click send and the overlay disappears and confirmation appears via bp_core_add_message.
It could be done in a core file, like bp-messages-template/bp_get_send_message_button()
but it needs some simple javascript and putting it all in member-header.php would make it easier to customize & style.
btw - is it of any use for me to include my hack functions, as a pastie link, or are they too obvious to be of any real use ?

As powerful as the new bbPress setup options are, it would be great if they were clearer for users.
For example:
If you have Site-Wide Forums installed, then you shouldn't see the
'Install Site Wide Forums' button.
Rather, show an 'UnInstall' button or some other indication that's it's already installed.
The bb-forums-setup page should also show some helpful info.
For example, for those admins who are not going to use Group Forums - something like:
""If you’re not going to use Group Forums, go to BuddyPress -> Settings -> Forums and install Site-Wide Forums. Then disable the component in BP 1.6 in Settings > BuddyPress > Components – uncheck Discussion Forums and Save. You don’t need to assign Sitewide Forums Page in BuddyPress > Pages. Leave it set to ""-None-"".
In Settings > Forums, if you’re using “Forums” as slug, then create a page named “Forums” then add the forums shortcode/s you prefer http://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/""
But if you 'BuddyPress > Components – uncheck Discussion Forums and Save', then you cannot get to the bb-forums-setup page.
If you leave it checked, it will still work, but then you'll always see this message:
""The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Discussion Forums. Repair""
So I think, the message needs to customized or the page=bp-components needs to show the 'Forums' link even if 'Discussion Forums' is unchecked.
And bb-forums-setup page needs some info for Groups Forums without Site-Wide and for using both. Or maybe it's more flexible to just provide a link to a codex page ?

(sorry 4 my english)
I was working on bp checkins and having hard times with the management of the trash of my custom post type. Then i made some test on regular posts on BP 1.5.6 and i noticed that the problem i faced with my custom post type actually exists for regular post.
I explain :
if i publish a post then this post is commented, if i trash the post, the 'new_blog_post' type activity is deleted but not the activities of the comments.
So while the post is in trash and not deleted if somebody clicks on the action of the comments activities, then we get a 404.
So my suggestion is to hook 'trashed_post_comments' to delete the 'new_blog_comment' activities of the blog post trashed.
If the admin change his mind, and remove the blog post from trash, then we can hook 'untrashed_post_comments' to recreate the 'new_blog_comment' activities we've deleted after trash.
Finally as, the recording of new_blog_post use the post_modified_gmt date, i suggest to hook 'untrash_post' to save in a global that the post is restored (in the diff i've chosen to create $bp->blogs->post_restored
then when the activity recording for this post is called, if $bp->blogs->post_restored is set it's a restored post, so we can use post_date_gmt to make sure the comments who will be restored won't be older than the post." imath

It's a bit difficoult to explain this without an example.
So... when BP loads activity streams, do some initialization operations, such hide long lists of activity comments, only show the latest five root comments... maybe the theme coder want to add other stuff... anyway... when you do things like ajax loading of more elements (at the bottom of the page) or change tab (favorites i.e.) the initialization doesn't happen, so you will see in example all comments of an event (maybe also 1000 or more) and things like that. This maybe happen also if the coder would add other jquery stuff like tipsy or scrollpane, autoresize etc. etc.
Maybe would be useful to add a function bp_reinit() where you can put all that functions you need to launch at startup.
In my case i found 2 events where to add it:
after:
{{{
/* Update the feed link */
if ( null != response.feed_url )
jq('.directory #subnav li.feed a, .home-page #subnav li.feed a').attr('href', response.feed_url);
jq('.item-list-tabs li.selected').removeClass('loading');
'''sgrbp_reinit(500);'''

after:
{{{
jq(""#content li.load-more"").removeClass('loading');
jq.cookie( 'bp-activity-oldestpage', oldest_page, {
path: '/'
} );
jq(""#content ul.activity-list"").append(response.contents);
target.parent().hide();
'''sgrbp_reinit();'''
}}}
And this is the function:
{{{
function sgrbp_init() {
bp_dtheme_hide_comments()
}
function sgrbp_reinit(timeout) {

I'm really eager to develop a range of bare-bones 'default setups' for BP which would enable developers to quickly launch projects from a pre-defined list of potential applications such as:
- default
- social
- corporate intranet
- dating
- academic
- niche interest communities
- project management
- etc.
Each 'default setup' would include a bespoke front-end theme with the appropriate functionality, plugins, labels and site structure already setup and filled out with niche specific demo data / images to demonstrate it's real life usage.
I'm happy to tackle everything on the front-end side from initial design concepts, artwork and illustration through to the slicing and dicing but I will need the guidance / involvement of a friendly coder to make this all happen.
Ideally someone that is:
- already familiar with buddyPress / wordPress / template mods
- able to create corresponding CSS to make my designs work on page
- able to make template changes/tweaks if required
- able to suggest plugins or work-around's to achieve particular usage goals
Back-end wise there would be no changes to buddyPress itself although it would of course be nice to add a 'default setup selector' to the admin as part of the BP config process after install ;)
Anyway, hope that raises someones interest and thanks for reading.

Attached patch re-writes the file_exists checks to include the two possible alternative locations for stylesheets and attempts to condense code lines using is_child_theme() checks for switching stylesheet/template_directory paths.

Active Tickets 4952 New template pack for BuddyPress UX/UI 1.8 enhancement new 2013-04-24T20:32:24Z 2013-05-15T18:27:59Z "This was talked about in the 1.8 scope meeting and I'm going to summarise the suggestions as best I can here.
The proposal is to create a new template pack for all the major templates for BuddyPress. As to what extent this is, it would be done by a review and wireframe of each major area.
A new template pack can draw on the work done as part of Turtleshell (http://turtleshellp2.wordpress.com). It shouldn't be rigid in taking every template as Turtleshell does though - there should be a review process of each template.
The proposed format for this would be one that had some strict time scales and cut off points.
If there is a 6 week development time to be set on this then the following would be a suggested format:
1. An exploration week with wireframe reviews and submissions of new directions
2. A week to refine and rework based on opinions
(Review if on track or go for 1.9 and have more refine time could be made at this point)
3. Development for 2 weeks
(Review if on track or go for 1.9 and have more refine time could be made at this point)
Ideally a ticket per area would be created so each can be discussed and refined.
Depending on the number of people available this could be done one by one or in teams. Each time a template is done a UI review needs to happen.
4. Development either ends in 3-4 weeks to keep on track for release or carries on into 1.9
The production of this would be done as a plugin similar to Turtleshell and a lot of that can be reused structure wise (even templates if those are the ones agreed on). Hopefully this will mean it can be early tested and free from the cycle to then be brought in when ready.
It's also a chance to get get accessibility into the UI and also user tests on the new templates." karmatosed
Active Tickets 4953 BuddyPress specific UI refresh UX/UI 1.8 enhancement new 2013-04-24T20:37:15Z 2013-05-22T09:31:54Z "There are a number of specific UI elements that every theme needs. The current version in 1.7 has a legacy styling which could do with a refresh and any new template will need to also have. They aren't something that can be inherited totally from the theme so are still applicable.
The suggested list to be considered are:
- Messages (error, success, notices) : particularly checking contrast levels on this to make sure we are accessible
- Buttons (comment, reply, favourite) - ideally would use the theme .button style for colour and not have a gradient/radius
- Span number indicators
- Loaders
There are probably other areas that could be added to here so if anyone knows any we could add them.
There is another ticket that suggests a new template pack (http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4952). If this ticket was done for 1.8 then this could be considered part of that, however if it was to be potentially for 1.9 or 'when ready' then having this as part of 1.8 could also 'detheme' a bit more the legacy templates by adding in the following:
- Making sure fonts and font sizes come from theme (px to rem would also be good)
- Remove all border radius, gradients, drop shadows (if any)
Whatever is done here would be needed for the new template pack so a good easy step towards that, but it could be released before to have something in 1.8 UI wise and also clean up legacy (people are going to use it for a while).
A simple plugin could be developed for this to get easier testing, but it could also be done just in CSS - depends if want in core from start or to take a mp6 approach." karmatosed
Active Tickets 4958 Improve UX of visibility setting dialog on registration page UX/UI 1.8 enhancement new 2013-04-25T23:00:04Z 2013-04-27T18:37:13Z "When a user is changing the visibility setting for profile fields while registering (and while editing a profile), the interface doesn't offer consistent feedback.
First, if a user opens the visibility settings dialog and changes to a different privacy level, upon closing the dialog, the privacy level text isn't updated to show that the user has made a change. Second, if a user fails to successfully register (if the passwords don't match, or she doesn't fill in a required field), the form 'loses' the user's choices upon reload.
I've attached a patch that adds to buddypress.js to update the privacy level text upon closing the dialog and changes the functions `bp_get_the_profile_field_visibility_level` and `bp_get_the_profile_field_visibility_level_label` in `bp-xprofile-template` to respect privacy levels stored in _POST rather than resetting to defaults on the registration page.

This ticket looks beyond 1.8 into what is desirable/feasible in the next iteration of the templates.
'''Group Directory'''
Number of member and whether Open/Closed is moved above group description. The key information should be easily scannable i.e. easily grasped in one glance. That's what this visual promotion of number of members does.
The ""grey"" Joing Group button indicates that the user is already a member of this group. In reality, instead of a greyed out button, user should really see the text to the effect ""You are already a member of this group""
'''Group Profile'''
Primarily 3 changes:
- @grouphandle below Group Name - dependency #5010
- Move ""Join Group"" button to top right. This is most salient place on the screen. Also, on directory pages, that's where the button is placed.
- Addition of 2 widget areas (content top and left column). Like all widget areas in WordPress, if there is no content in widget areas, they collapse.
'''Member Directoy'''
Member directory features so called ""cards"" format.
There are 3 changes from #4952
- Bigger member photo
- Online Now/ Offline info under the photo - dependency #5007
- Display additional fields as chosen by admin - dependency #4126
This is major. As @karmatosed says in #4952
> BuddyPress powers a range of communities... You could be proposing something to be used by a cribbage club for retired people, a football club, a school and a support group for an illness. You never know.
Hence, the admin should decide for her own community what info goes on the cards.
- Removed ""online since""
'''Member Profile'''
Differences from #4952
- Bigger profile photo
- Friend button moved to top right. This is most salient place on the screen. Also, on directory pages, that's where the button is placed.
- Send Message button added to send a private message to the user.
- Online Now/ Offline info under the photo - dependency #5007
- Addition of 2 widget areas (content top and left column). In the example wireframes, the content top widget shows a preview of About/Profile, and the left column widget shows a preview of Friends and Groups. - dependency #5008
'''Messages'''

Active Tickets 4954 Migrate BP's custom URI parser to use WP's Rewrite API Rewrite Rules 1.8 task johnjamesjacoby new 2013-04-25T14:21:04Z 2013-04-26T20:52:34Z "BP's custom URI parser (living mostly in `bp_core_set_uri_globals()`) is slow, error-prone, non-extensible, non-testable, and out of step with WP best practices. This ticket is a master ticket for the task of migrating from our current URI parser to the WordPress Rewrite API.
JJJ will be leading this task. Here's an outline of what will need to be covered, which I'm sure he and others will improve:
- Port some of the basic rewrite architecture from somewhere like bbPress
- Generalize some of the logic, to account for BP's system of current_component, current_action, action_variables
- Ensure backward compatibility with plugins that add arbitrary sub-paths to BP addresses, whether it be via BP_Group_Extension, BP_Component, or manual detection of $bp->current_component etc
- Add administation pages for the manual modification of slugs (see eg #2086)
- Maintain backward compatibility with slugs set via constant (eg `BP_GROUPS_SLUG`)
- Develop a tool for automatic migration from bp-pages to new slug system. In addition to the rewrite rules themselves, migration tool should be sensitive to Menus that include reference to bp-pages
- Unit tests as appropriate
There is a fairly large number of tickets, both in and out of the 1.8 milestone, that will become irrelevant after the bp-pages schema has been abandoned. (Some will not necessarily be irrelevant, but they will require a totally different approach, and so should not be addressed until after the rewrite stuff is at least basically in place.) For the moment, I'm leaving those tickets open, in case the rewrite stuff were to take more than one dev cycle.

Was thinking it would be very useful to keep a history(activity stream) of all notifications. Currently notifications' landing pages take you to the source pages, so there's not history trail to refer back to.
this would also serve as a nice place to house other WP notifications like comment approvals, publishing of your posts, comments subscriptions, plugin update alerts, etc, and it would also be nice to include a record of all the BP public notices published by the admin.
I just imagine its making it easier for the user to have a log of something like this to always easy access to, currently i think things like friend requests get lost if the user doesn't act on it the first time they view a notfication.

On that note, here are two different proposals:
1) Don't ask for a root_slug at all from component classes. Just take a moment in BP_Component::setup_globals() to get it out of $bp->pages.
2) Use the value out of $bp->pages as a default
I think that we can safely go with (1), but IMO the least we can do is (2). (FWIW, I think that (2) can - and should - be slipped in for BP 1.5, while there is not enough time for (1).)

Active Tickets 3625 Core functions should not hook to bp_init with default priority Core 1.5 Future Release enhancement new 2011-09-26T17:41:25Z 2013-04-29T17:08:01Z "I had a good discussion on ticket #3622 about the bp_init hook and plugins. Conceptually, I think that the idea behind bp_init is to let plugins attach certain actions to a point in the load order when they can be sure that BP's core functionality has been fully loaded. This mostly works - bp_setup_globals, bp_setup_nav, and other initialization hooks all happen before bp_init priority 10. However, there are a few important places in BP where we use priority 10, with the result that if a plugin happens to be loaded by WordPress *before* BP is, those hooks could fail to find the corresponding action. To wit:
bp_core_load_admin_bar_css()
bp_core_load_buddybar_css()
bp_core_admin_menu_init() (initializes the admin menu loader)
bp_core_add_ajax_hook() (creates the wp_ajax_ hooks on the front-end that WP has by default on the back end)
bp_core_wpsignup_redirect() (redirects users away from wp-signup.php when BP is installed)
There are also some places in the friends component where we hook to bp_init, but IMO that's not as crucial, since our optional components essentially operate like plugins anyway.
I propose that all of the above function be moved from bp_init priority 10 to 8 or 9. This will obviously need some thorough testing (though I'm pretty certain that making these particular functions fire a bit *earlier* is not going to hurt anything). I'll post a patch." boonebgorges

This is hard to read, and makes developing and troubleshooting more troublesome than it ought to be. Accordingly, where possible, these methods should be refactored so that if an array is passed as the first argument, the rest of the arguments are ignored and we parse the passed array with a set of defaults using wp_parse_args().
The same is true of some of the template class constructors (BP_Activity_Template::__construct(), etc).
We probably should *not* formally deprecate the old way of passing arguments, as WP's _deprecated_argument() will essentially break any plugin that makes direct calls to these classes.

Active Tickets 3819 Create An Activity Lookup Table (better to call it a reference table) Core Future Release enhancement new 2011-12-08T20:07:55Z 2011-12-14T20:45:11Z "There are a few instances where BuddyPress stores data that are not easy for a developer to utilize in specific, meaningful ways. One such case is that of activity groups and their associated actions. These get stored in memory in the $bp->activity object array (the $bp->activity->actions subelement for action items). These crucial data are not stored in the database. It could be viewed as phantom data that is internally hardcoded into the core code.
Instead of using lookup tables, key/value pairs are used to store activity datasets in object arrays that are rebuffered into memory each time a page is loaded. Hardcoding data like this can make it very difficult, if not impossible, for 3rd-party plugins to interact consistently with and store meaningful data based on this internal data.
Why is this an issue? If activity data is changed in the future -- via a change in the hardcoded activity group names or activity action names -- any stored data (in a 3rd-party plugin’s table) that counts on a particular activity item to have a particular name could lose integrity.
For instance, the “New friendship created” activity item (action) which was internally coded as the action “friendship_accepted” in an older of version of BP, was renamed to “friendship_created” in Changeset 1749. This single change could have caused data instability in any 3rd-party plugin that utilized the older activity items in their custom tables.
This method of storing activity data in memory (arrays) was implemented in this [http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/1749 BP Trac ticket]. It was an attempt to offer a mechanism with which to manage activity privacy. But after much testing and trial and error, this solution did not present any easily-accessible, stable method to manage activity privacy on a user-by-user basis. To make this method work for my component BP Privacy, I would have had to either add a special column to the privacy table just for this single piece of datum or create an entirely separate table solely for activity privacy. Even then, the data stored in that table could not be counted on remaining accurate (as detailed above).
''On a side note: It is interesting to note that all activity actions, except the single one coded for the friends component, are used in the the activity stream table. However for the friends component, the stored activity action of “friends_register_activity_action” is not used. Instead “friendship_created”, an action that is not officially registered with the $bp->activity->actions array, is used. This should be changed.''
It is crucial to offer unique identifiers for all core pieces of datum. With a unique identifier for activity data -- based off of the proposed activity lookup table’s auto-incremented ID field -- it would be more unlikely that any activity data stored via 3rd-party plugins could become orphaned in the future by changes made to BP core’s values.
As an example, the Xprofile component offers unique field group IDs and field IDs by virtue of the auto-incremented ID field in their respective database tables. The Group component does so as well. But BP’s activity component does not offer unique numeric identifiers for activity groups nor activity actions. Instead, each activity item is stored in volatile memory. This makes it difficult for a developer to count on activity item data to never change.
Currently, a developer wishing to offer customized activity filtering based on BP core’s activity names or activity actions must create their own way to uniquely identify and index activity items. Since activities and their associated actions are not stored in a table in the database, there is no safe and stable way to assure that a particular piece of activity datum will not change in the future.
Instead of storing activity groups and their associated activity actions in volatile memory, I propose that BP switches to using an activity lookup table. See the attached image for an example.

I get the reasoning behind this - you'll never need the Edit or Change Avatar item on profiles other than your own. But it limits extensibility for developers. See eg http://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/bp_core_new_subnav_item-wont-create-item-under-profile-section/ Moreover, xprofile is the only component where we do this, which makes development inconsistent.
If we're concerned about the wasted screen real estate in showing a subnav that only has a single item ('Public'), then perhaps we could replace the bp_is_my_profile() check with a different kind of (optional) check, which only displays the subnav when there's more than one item. Regardless of whether we do something like this, I think it's a good idea to remove the bp_is_my_profile() check (and double check that the Edit and Change Avatar items are only visible to the current user/super admin, which I'm pretty sure they already are)." boonebgorges

Active Tickets 3965 New blog posts to activity wall get messed up with html comment tags Core 1.5.3 Future Release enhancement new 2012-01-28T00:22:08Z 2012-02-03T19:11:14Z When I post a new blog post in the wordpress dashboard, It usually gets posted to the main activity wall. This part works fine but what gets posted doesn’t. I tested it out and it seems if there are comments inside the posts like this well show up as “comments” on the activity wall. On the actual post on the wordpress part it does not show up. Like I mentioned previously. this worked fine on 1.2.9 but now on the 1.5.3.1 version this part seems to be not working properly. I tried the bp-default theme and still same thing. I didn’t think this would be a theme thing. more of a core part, but I like to test before posting here. username_

Active Tickets 4076 Use transients for expensive activity queries Activity Future Release enhancement new 2012-03-13T19:48:27Z 2012-03-13T23:37:58Z "In light of tickets like #4045, I would like to suggest that we implement some smarter caching of popular and complex activity queries. wp_cache is nice, but it will have no effect on someone not using a persistent object cache. Using transients, on the other hand, will have a small cost in terms of database storage, but a potentially huge payoff even for installations on relatively modest setups.
So, here's what I'm thinking. Cache at the level of bp_has_activities(). Pass everything through a wrapper function (like bp_update_activity_transient()), which will allow admins/plugin devs to decide just how many different kinds of activity queries get cached in this way. By default, cache the following:
- The main activity stream firehose, maybe through the first five pages
- The main activity stream filters (New Blog Post, Updates, etc), first couple pages
- Each user's activity stream, first couple pages
- Each group's activity stream, first couple pages
We can build transient keys out of a hash of the relevant bp_has_activities() parameters.
I will build a proof-of-concept, but I wanted to get feedback as well before digging in too deeply. Thanks." boonebgorges
Active Tickets 4119 An important missing group privacy level: Closed group with visible content. Groups 1.5.4 Future Release enhancement new 2012-04-04T02:07:01Z 2012-06-19T12:34:47Z "In my opinion, there is a very important group access option that is absent from the group setting.

Access: | Anyone can join | Anyone can see content | Anyone can see title |

Public | YES | YES | YES |
LIMITED | no | YES | YES |(missing)
Private | no | no | YES |

It seems to me that the omission of this option is/was based on the assumption that as groups go, only people to allowed to freely join a group should need to be able to see that group’s discussions.
I am sure that usually this assumption holds, but I can envision (and have encountered) a number of circumstances where this would not be the case, for example, support forums where only premium users can ask for help but where any user can read from existing threads. Or in my case, the client wants to have a ""Donors-only"" forum where only the organization's donors can discuss but anyone can view... it's the ""broadcasted-town-hall-meeting"" idea. Only important people talk, but everybody can listen in.

Active Tickets 4140 URI page router Core Future Release enhancement new 2012-04-10T23:39:03Z 2012-09-13T14:25:36Z "A page router is a set of classes that analyzes a URI supplied by the web server, and determines what (if any) page to return to a user. It's the heart of any web application and one of the most difficult parts to build ...because it must be reliable, secure, and extremely fast.
In BuddyPress, the functions in the /bp-core/bp-core-catchuri.php file (combined with various code strewn about the plugin) serve as the page router.
As part of building BP-Media, our team performed a detailed audit on BP's page router code. Although when *tested by humans* the code appears to work properly, when we instrumented and traced it, we found some serious problems:
1) It can't handle URI's with repeated tokens ""example.com/foo/bar/foo""
2) It runs excessive numbers of queries
3) It's very CPU intensive
4) It has no caching
5) Its impossible to unit test
6) Nobody understands how it works
So we've written you a new router class, with the following benefits:
1) It correctly handles any URI
2) It uses 1 query per page load instead of 5 (best case) or 20 (typical) or hundreds (site with dense page hierarchy and lots of blogs)
3) Uses 40% less CPU cycles per run
4) Includes full unit tests (once you add the Unit Test suite we've built for you, attached in another SVN ticket)
5) It supports caching (once we discuss how you'd like to implement it)
6) It includes an advanced error handling system that fully integrates with the unit tests (we'll post the utilities libraries to let you print the error traces to your browser in another ticket)
7) It has great documentation.
This patch is current as of an hour ago, and cleanly applies to the 1.6 trunk.
Enjoy!

Core WP lets me define any user_meta I want in the meta table, but this data isn't then tied back to xprofile data so its not easy to display on profiles. It does however let me use get_users() which I can then query that meta data and return an array of users.
Which for example I wanted to pull everyone with the state of TX is very easy. If this data was xprofile data its hard to query that data.
Looking at bp_core_get_users it already joins the xprofile table so converting off from ""meta_key""/""meta_value"" to ""field""/""value"" shouldn't be too bad.
This would allow a single bp_get_users() to pull users based upon their profile data.
In the mean time I'm adding meta AND xprofile data which is redundant but a stop gap until I can either code my own query or bp adds one. " DennisSmolek

I have for the past several months been receiving several spam / fraud accounts through buddy press via my website Goodforsociety.com Is there or shouldn’t there be an area to set the security up for usernames, passwords, and first and last name fields? Example I should have a place to add and edit items I believe should not be allowed such as in the name field first name and last name I should be able to say in this field that numerical characters such as 1,2,3,4 etc cannot be used and or alphabetical characters in sequence like abcd of aaa, zzz, ddd making the user use their actual name. In the password field I should be able to say must contain one numerical and capital letter and password must be a minimum of 8 characters etc.. Also there should be a setting for email criteria so you can ad and edit a list you create that you consider to be invalid or false and or fraudulent accounts. For example I might would say any email that is aajjaajjaajj@123.com is not a valid email account.
Spam today is horrible and there isn’t much you can do about it if you don’t have these features available so we buddy press users can add to a growing list we create thus making our sites more and more and more secure.
Also there isn’t a feature I can see that allows me to say I don’t want users to use html in there post and or activity streams. there should also be a list you can add words to that you don’t want to have on your site say if your site is pg13 then I should be able to exclude words like ass, and f@#@ck from being used via there profiles. Wordpress has this feature for comments!
Can you assist me in trying to fix these issues? I receive 15+ fake spam accounts a day.

Since spammers seem to sign-up in bunches, I don't want to keep them in the wp-users table if their data is wiped. So I use a separate table (auto-increment id & email).

First of all thanks a lot for your hard work!
It seems quite strange to me that blog comments are not comments in activity stream. They are updates in activity stream. Let me explain my thoughts.
All test are done on testbp.org
For example, I make a comment on a blog post (please look at attached img1.png).
Then I see my comment as an update in activity stream (attached img2.png)
But I can't see my comment as a reply on the post in activity stream (please look at img3.png).
So we have 2 different streams of comments on the same blog post.

1. Get rid of 'Public Message' button. It has no context in that location. It appears between 2 buttons that do have context, Friendship & Private Message.
2. It seems rather clunky to have 'Private Message' take you away from the profile you're viewing.
On a custom build, I've changed that to an overlay and member reaction was very positive. I did it all the markup in.../members/single/member-header.php
and then call a function in bp-custom.
Click the button and the overlay appears. In the overlay, click send and the overlay disappears and confirmation appears via bp_core_add_message.
It could be done in a core file, like bp-messages-template/bp_get_send_message_button()
but it needs some simple javascript and putting it all in member-header.php would make it easier to customize & style.

As powerful as the new bbPress setup options are, it would be great if they were clearer for users.
For example:
If you have Site-Wide Forums installed, then you shouldn't see the
'Install Site Wide Forums' button.
Rather, show an 'UnInstall' button or some other indication that's it's already installed.
The bb-forums-setup page should also show some helpful info.
For example, for those admins who are not going to use Group Forums - something like:
""If you’re not going to use Group Forums, go to BuddyPress -> Settings -> Forums and install Site-Wide Forums. Then disable the component in BP 1.6 in Settings > BuddyPress > Components – uncheck Discussion Forums and Save. You don’t need to assign Sitewide Forums Page in BuddyPress > Pages. Leave it set to ""-None-"".
In Settings > Forums, if you’re using “Forums” as slug, then create a page named “Forums” then add the forums shortcode/s you prefer http://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/""
But if you 'BuddyPress > Components – uncheck Discussion Forums and Save', then you cannot get to the bb-forums-setup page.
If you leave it checked, it will still work, but then you'll always see this message:
""The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Discussion Forums. Repair""
So I think, the message needs to customized or the page=bp-components needs to show the 'Forums' link even if 'Discussion Forums' is unchecked.
And bb-forums-setup page needs some info for Groups Forums without Site-Wide and for using both. Or maybe it's more flexible to just provide a link to a codex page ?

I was working on bp checkins and having hard times with the management of the trash of my custom post type. Then i made some test on regular posts on BP 1.5.6 and i noticed that the problem i faced with my custom post type actually exists for regular post.
I explain :
if i publish a post then this post is commented, if i trash the post, the 'new_blog_post' type activity is deleted but not the activities of the comments.
So while the post is in trash and not deleted if somebody clicks on the action of the comments activities, then we get a 404.
So my suggestion is to hook 'trashed_post_comments' to delete the 'new_blog_comment' activities of the blog post trashed.
If the admin change his mind, and remove the blog post from trash, then we can hook 'untrashed_post_comments' to recreate the 'new_blog_comment' activities we've deleted after trash.
Finally as, the recording of new_blog_post use the post_modified_gmt date, i suggest to hook 'untrash_post' to save in a global that the post is restored (in the diff i've chosen to create $bp->blogs->post_restored
then when the activity recording for this post is called, if $bp->blogs->post_restored is set it's a restored post, so we can use post_date_gmt to make sure the comments who will be restored won't be older than the post." imath
Active Tickets 4310 "Members Profile Shows ""active sometime ago""" Core 1.5.6 Future Release enhancement new 2012-06-29T13:26:01Z 2012-07-31T21:36:42Z "It seems that whenever someone has logged into our BuddyPress instance within the last 10-15 minutes or less they always show up as ""active '''sometime''' ago"".
I looked at the BP code and I see that there is a catch all if() statement that throws ""sometime"" whenever the script can't properly calculate the elapsed time. It always happens when the elapsed time is 10-15 minutes or less.
I believe this is a bug. It is also a misleading message to your community members as people ask me ""what does sometime ago"" represent.

Active Tickets 4340 Outputting timezone-correct timestamp for activity is hard Activity 1.6-beta Future Release enhancement new 2012-07-10T20:37:30Z 2012-07-11T11:07:21Z "When displaying the date an activity update was created, bp-default outputs the time elapsed since the activity was created. However, if a theme wants to display that in a timestamp, it will have to do some tricker of its own to print out a properly formatted timestamp that is respective of the timezone set in WP settings.
I think a template function may serve well here, something like get_activity_timestamp(), which would return the timezone-correct timestamp. " ericlewis

Active Tickets 4500 Ajax loading doesn't refresh JS onload Theme Future Release enhancement new 2012-08-31T20:39:02Z 2012-12-20T16:19:00Z "Hi,
It's a bit difficoult to explain this without an example.
So... when BP loads activity streams, do some initialization operations, such hide long lists of activity comments, only show the latest five root comments... maybe the theme coder want to add other stuff... anyway... when you do things like ajax loading of more elements (at the bottom of the page) or change tab (favorites i.e.) the initialization doesn't happen, so you will see in example all comments of an event (maybe also 1000 or more) and things like that. This maybe happen also if the coder would add other jquery stuff like tipsy or scrollpane, autoresize etc. etc.
Maybe would be useful to add a function bp_reinit() where you can put all that functions you need to launch at startup.
In my case i found 2 events where to add it:
after:
{{{
/* Update the feed link */
if ( null != response.feed_url )
jq('.directory #subnav li.feed a, .home-page #subnav li.feed a').attr('href', response.feed_url);
jq('.item-list-tabs li.selected').removeClass('loading');
'''sgrbp_reinit(500);'''
}}}
after:
{{{
jq(""#content li.load-more"").removeClass('loading');
jq.cookie( 'bp-activity-oldestpage', oldest_page, {
path: '/'
} );
jq(""#content ul.activity-list"").append(response.contents);
target.parent().hide();
'''sgrbp_reinit();'''
}}}
And this is the function:
{{{
function sgrbp_init() {
bp_dtheme_hide_comments()
}
function sgrbp_reinit(timeout) {
setTimeout(function(){sgrbp_init()},timeout);
}

I'm really eager to develop a range of bare-bones 'default setups' for BP which would enable developers to quickly launch projects from a pre-defined list of potential applications such as:
- default
- social
- corporate intranet
- dating
- academic
- niche interest communities
- project management
- etc.
Each 'default setup' would include a bespoke front-end theme with the appropriate functionality, plugins, labels and site structure already setup and filled out with niche specific demo data / images to demonstrate it's real life usage.
I'm happy to tackle everything on the front-end side from initial design concepts, artwork and illustration through to the slicing and dicing but I will need the guidance / involvement of a friendly coder to make this all happen.
Ideally someone that is:
- already familiar with buddyPress / wordPress / template mods
- able to create corresponding CSS to make my designs work on page
- able to make template changes/tweaks if required
- able to suggest plugins or work-around's to achieve particular usage goals
Back-end wise there would be no changes to buddyPress itself although it would of course be nice to add a 'default setup selector' to the admin as part of the BP config process after install ;)
Anyway, hope that raises someones interest and thanks for reading.

Active Tickets 4952 New template pack for BuddyPress UX/UI 1.8 enhancement new 2013-04-24T20:32:24Z 2013-05-15T18:27:59Z "This was talked about in the 1.8 scope meeting and I'm going to summarise the suggestions as best I can here.
The proposal is to create a new template pack for all the major templates for BuddyPress. As to what extent this is, it would be done by a review and wireframe of each major area.
A new template pack can draw on the work done as part of Turtleshell (http://turtleshellp2.wordpress.com). It shouldn't be rigid in taking every template as Turtleshell does though - there should be a review process of each template.
The proposed format for this would be one that had some strict time scales and cut off points.
If there is a 6 week development time to be set on this then the following would be a suggested format:
1. An exploration week with wireframe reviews and submissions of new directions
2. A week to refine and rework based on opinions
(Review if on track or go for 1.9 and have more refine time could be made at this point)
3. Development for 2 weeks
(Review if on track or go for 1.9 and have more refine time could be made at this point)
Ideally a ticket per area would be created so each can be discussed and refined.
Depending on the number of people available this could be done one by one or in teams. Each time a template is done a UI review needs to happen.
4. Development either ends in 3-4 weeks to keep on track for release or carries on into 1.9
The production of this would be done as a plugin similar to Turtleshell and a lot of that can be reused structure wise (even templates if those are the ones agreed on). Hopefully this will mean it can be early tested and free from the cycle to then be brought in when ready.
It's also a chance to get get accessibility into the UI and also user tests on the new templates." karmatosed
Active Tickets 4953 BuddyPress specific UI refresh UX/UI 1.8 enhancement new 2013-04-24T20:37:15Z 2013-05-22T09:31:54Z "There are a number of specific UI elements that every theme needs. The current version in 1.7 has a legacy styling which could do with a refresh and any new template will need to also have. They aren't something that can be inherited totally from the theme so are still applicable.
The suggested list to be considered are:
- Messages (error, success, notices) : particularly checking contrast levels on this to make sure we are accessible
- Buttons (comment, reply, favourite) - ideally would use the theme .button style for colour and not have a gradient/radius
- Span number indicators
- Loaders
There are probably other areas that could be added to here so if anyone knows any we could add them.
There is another ticket that suggests a new template pack (http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4952). If this ticket was done for 1.8 then this could be considered part of that, however if it was to be potentially for 1.9 or 'when ready' then having this as part of 1.8 could also 'detheme' a bit more the legacy templates by adding in the following:
- Making sure fonts and font sizes come from theme (px to rem would also be good)
- Remove all border radius, gradients, drop shadows (if any)
Whatever is done here would be needed for the new template pack so a good easy step towards that, but it could be released before to have something in 1.8 UI wise and also clean up legacy (people are going to use it for a while).
A simple plugin could be developed for this to get easier testing, but it could also be done just in CSS - depends if want in core from start or to take a mp6 approach." karmatosed
Active Tickets 4958 Improve UX of visibility setting dialog on registration page UX/UI 1.8 enhancement new 2013-04-25T23:00:04Z 2013-04-27T18:37:13Z "When a user is changing the visibility setting for profile fields while registering (and while editing a profile), the interface doesn't offer consistent feedback.
First, if a user opens the visibility settings dialog and changes to a different privacy level, upon closing the dialog, the privacy level text isn't updated to show that the user has made a change. Second, if a user fails to successfully register (if the passwords don't match, or she doesn't fill in a required field), the form 'loses' the user's choices upon reload.
I've attached a patch that adds to buddypress.js to update the privacy level text upon closing the dialog and changes the functions `bp_get_the_profile_field_visibility_level` and `bp_get_the_profile_field_visibility_level_label` in `bp-xprofile-template` to respect privacy levels stored in _POST rather than resetting to defaults on the registration page.
Thanks for all the 1.7 goodness!

Active Tickets 4968 Returned button after ajax action , addremove_friend & joinleave_group Theme 1.8 enhancement new 2013-04-30T14:05:18Z 2013-04-30T14:11:14Z "
The Ajax response for addremove_friend & joinleave_group is a simple html code of buttons.
The html returned code of buttons must use the two functions bp_get_add_friend_button and bp_get_group_join_button.
this is sample update of bp_dtheme_ajax_addremove_friend() function :
{{{

if ( 'POST' !== strtoupper( $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] ) )
return;
// Cast fid as an integer
$friend_id = (int) $_POST['fid'];
// Trying to cancel friendship
if ( 'is_friend' == BP_Friends_Friendship::check_is_friend( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $friend_id ) ) {
check_ajax_referer( 'friends_remove_friend' );

2) Who's online now filter for member directory.
There would ideally be 2 checks built into the function:
1) Has admin of community disabled this feature - not all communities may want or need it.
2) Has username turned this feature off in her profile? Some users may want to work stealthily even if admin has enabled this feature." sooskriszta

Active Tickets 5011 BuddyPress Next - frontend UI Template Pack 1.7 Awaiting Review enhancement new 2013-05-17T04:11:39Z 2013-05-17T04:11:39Z "New template pack for BuddyPress is a work in progress at #4952 Those templates are scheduled to be bundled with 1.8
This ticket looks beyond 1.8 into what is desirable/feasible in the next iteration of the templates.
'''Group Directory'''
Number of member and whether Open/Closed is moved above group description. The key information should be easily scannable i.e. easily grasped in one glance. That's what this visual promotion of number of members does.
The ""grey"" Joing Group button indicates that the user is already a member of this group. In reality, instead of a greyed out button, user should really see the text to the effect ""You are already a member of this group""
'''Group Profile'''
Primarily 3 changes:
- @grouphandle below Group Name - dependency #5010
- Move ""Join Group"" button to top right. This is most salient place on the screen. Also, on directory pages, that's where the button is placed.
- Addition of 2 widget areas (content top and left column). Like all widget areas in WordPress, if there is no content in widget areas, they collapse.
'''Member Directoy'''
Member directory features so called ""cards"" format.
There are 3 changes from #4952
- Bigger member photo
- Online Now/ Offline info under the photo - dependency #5007
- Display additional fields as chosen by admin - dependency #4126
This is major. As @karmatosed says in #4952
> BuddyPress powers a range of communities... You could be proposing something to be used by a cribbage club for retired people, a football club, a school and a support group for an illness. You never know.
Hence, the admin should decide for her own community what info goes on the cards.
- Removed ""online since""
'''Member Profile'''
Differences from #4952
- Bigger profile photo
- Friend button moved to top right. This is most salient place on the screen. Also, on directory pages, that's where the button is placed.
- Send Message button added to send a private message to the user.
- Online Now/ Offline info under the photo - dependency #5007
- Addition of 2 widget areas (content top and left column). In the example wireframes, the content top widget shows a preview of About/Profile, and the left column widget shows a preview of Friends and Groups. - dependency #5008
'''Messages'''
- Brought into standard profile-like template
- Added timestamp below title
- Folder links and Send Message button locations flipped" sooskriszta
