WordPress › Secure Invites « WordPress Plugins - 0 views

  • If your BuddyPress theme is the default theme (for BuddyPress version 1.2 or above), or a child of the default theme, or uses the same template hooks as the default theme, you can put the invitation form in the following places by just ticking the right box in your settings screen: Before any list of members After any list of members At the top of every page Before your site homepage After your site homepage At the top of the default sidebar At the bottom of the default sidebar The invitation form is hidden by default, and is shown by clicking an "Invite a friend" button which makes the form slide into view.
  • Preset settings If you want to quickly set up invitations without messing with lots of settings, there are now four presets you can use: Anyone can join with or without an invitation, and all users can invite as many people as they like Signup is just for invited people, and all users can invite as many people as they like Signup is just for invited people, and all users who have been registered for 30 days or more can invite as many people as they like Signup is just for invited people, and all users who have been registered for 30 days or more can invite up to 10 people Or you can use your own custom settings just as before.
  • Overriding of special users Sometimes you want particular users to be able to invite more friends than the default, or perhaps you want to stop a particular user from inviting anybody at all. Now you can, by searching for the user and changing their own individual settings. You san set whether they are allowed to send invitations at all, and of so how many (either a limited number or unlimited).

Achievements | Forum | Change Displayed Description Length? | BuddyPress.org - 0 views

  • By default, bp_create_excerpt (found in /bp-core/bp-core-template.php) sets a default length of 225. The Achievements plugin calls it in achievements-templatetags.php, causing descriptions longer than 225 characters to be truncated. As a temp fix, I copied bp_create_excerpt over to bp-custom.php, increased the $length, renamed it my_bp_create_excerpt, and then renamed it within the Achievements plugin as well. (I’m sure there’s a better way to change the $length, but this works for now)

bp-custom.php | BuddyPress Codex - 0 views

  • bp-custom.php is often compared to your theme’s functions.php file. However, there are two primary differences between bp-custom.php and your theme’s functions.php.
  • bp-custom.php runs from the /wp-content/plugins/ folder and is therefore independent from your theme. This is useful for adding code snippets that are BuddyPress-specific. Also, this code will always load regardless of what theme you are using.
  • bp-custom.php runs early in the BuddyPress-loading process. This allows you to override various settings in BuddyPress.

How to improve BuddyPress speed and performance | BuddyBoss - The Ultimate BuddyPress T... - 0 views

  • Hyper Cache is specifically written for people who have their sites on low resource hosting providers. This plugin will make an enormous speed improvement and is recommended instead of other similar plugins such as WP Super Cache or W3 Total Cache. It will work better with BuddyPress and is quite simple to set up.
  • The problem was with the DB Cache Reloaded plugin. Not only would the notifications not go away but when individuals submitted anything on a wall or activity stream, this would not be published for several minutes. When I removed the DB Cache Reloaded plugin, the problem went away!
  • However, every additional plugin you install will need to request information from your database and the cumulative effect of having dozens of plugins is that your site will slow down. Use only the plugins that you actually need. Try to remove the rest.

Best Practices for Preventing BuddyPress Spam User Registrations | Wptuts+ - 0 views

  • The first level of security is to change the footer text to remove mentions of WordPress and BuddyPress. Spammers target the words “proudly powered by WordPress and BuddyPress” in search engines to find sites they can compromise.
  • In BuddyPress, the default URL for the registration page is “http:/yoursitedomain.com/register”. This is why spambots include the “insite:register” when performing the search described in the above section. Make it harder for them to find your site by easily changing the default slug for BuddyPress in your wp-config.php file.
  • We use the honeypot technique to thwart spambots and it has worked pretty well from our experience. I didn’t invent the idea, but I built this implementation for BuddyPress and it works like a champ.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • BP_REGISTER_SLUG
  • All you need to do is set the slug for the registration page that has been created. If you’re on BuddyPress 1.5+ that is.
  • It enables you to block IP addresses and even entire domains from accessing your site, a very useful thing to do against known bots trying to create fake BuddyPress user accounts.
  • Be wary of trying every single security plugin under the sun, as this slows down your site and adds to your maintenance workload by having more things to update and go through if something breaks. At first, stick to the highest rated ones that have proven themselves over time with a lot of users. One such plugin, which is highly recommended by many BuddyPress and WordPress users, is Bad Bahavior. This plugin will not only block a lot of spam, but will make your site invisible to many bots in the first place and thereby prevent fake registrations.
