  • I recommend giving people single sign-on options using Twitter, Linkedin, OpenID, Livejournal, etc. as well as Facebook.
  • The rest of your target market still needs to be convinced to care about your community enough to join.
  • Make your homepage interesting enough to visit twice.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • There’s probably a reason Quora, Stackoverflow and most Ning networks all have news feeds on their front pages.
  • Clearly define your niche.
  • clearly define your site’s niche so that users will have an easier time understanding how your site adds value to their lives. For example, Quora is the social network where one gets their questions answered; Stackoverflow is a Q&A network for programmers; Linkedin is a specific network for jobhunting professionals. What specific need does your social network cater to?
  • Beware of outdated plugins and themes.
  • Look at the description closely and check to see if it’s been tested up to the WordPress version you’ve installed. If you’re unsure, search for the plugin forums (every WordPress plugin should have one) and see the latest praises or issues people are discussing on the threads.
  • If a new theme or plugin crashes your site, rename or delete it.
  • I recommend giving people single sign-on options using Twitter, Linkedin, OpenID, Livejournal, etc. as well as Facebook.
  • Your site needs an FAQ. No, really. It does. Although you personally might think that the activity feeds and groups and profile editing links are in the most obvious locations in the world, your users will not. They’re used to their own oft-frequented social networks (cough, Facebook), and  they’ll ask you why clicking on their avatar doesn’t automatically bring them to a “change your profile picture” page or if logging into your site using Facebook Connect will mean that everything they post will automatically get cross-posted to their Facebook wall. In addition, users want to know about your site features.

    I re-discovered my fascination with online community building around the time I subscribed to a shared hosting service, installed WordPress, discovered the Buddypress plugin, and stumbled upon open-source forums where people were amazingly helpfully about sharing troubleshooting tips and code.   This was last December. The discovery turned into an independent study I dubbed "Volunteerism in a Web 2.0 World," which turned into the development of a website and lots of meetings and several pages of an annotated bibliography - all of which I submitted to my Research in Practice Program (RIPP) advisor at the end of the semester.Over the course of my meetings with "stakeholders" (Duke students and administrators) to asses the value of the "website" (an online social network for Duke civic engagement), I learned a few things about designing an online community using WordPress and Buddypress.

shared by Vernon Fowler on 15 Jan 13 - No Cached
  • If you are using W3 Total Cache and you have enabled HTML&XML Minify and you use BuddyPress or a custom registration page. Please, go to Performance -> Minify -> Advanced -> "Never minify the following pages:" and add you registration page. If you dont do this, you could have some issues.
  • NOT protect your site from comment spam, WangGuard protect your registration page from sploggers, unwanted users and untrusted users and WangGuard clean your database from them. For comment spam, you have another great plugin, Akismet.
  • It is very important to use WangGuard at least for a week, reporting your site's unwanted users as sploggers from the Users panel. WangGuard will learn at that time to protect your site from sploggers in a much more effective way. WangGuard protects each web site in a personalized way using information provided by Administrators who report sploggers world-wide, that's why it's very important that you report your sploggers to WangGuard. The longer you use WangGuard, the more effective it will become. Upon user registration, WangGuard will check against a centralized database if the user is a Splogger or spam-user. If WangGuard determines that the user is a Splogger, WangGuard won't allow the registration on your site.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • No need to put any kind of filter in the user registration page (eg captcha). This is the greatness of WangGuard, not hinder users who wish to register on your site with Captchas and other things that just makes the registration being more difficult and in many cases do not stop Sploggers.

    "BuddyDrive is a BuddyPress 1.7 plugin that uses WordPress built in features for the management of its post attachments to allow the members of a community to share a file or a list of files thanks to the BuddyDrive folders. Depending on the BuddyPress settings, the access to the BuddyDrive user's content can be restricted to the owner of the item only, people that know the password the owner set for his item, the friends of the owner of the file, the members of the group the content is attached to, or everybody !

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

best practices buddypress spam preventing

shared by Vernon Fowler on 18 Sep 12 - No Cached
  • 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.

  • 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).

      TIL buddypress theme compatibility only plays nicely if the theme has been going with references to get_template_part e.g. http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_template_part [28/05/2013 4:35:25 PM] Bronson Quick: we have a client who didn't have budget and wants to use an existing theme and i couldn't work out why theme compatibility wouldn't generate permalinks properly [28/05/2013 4:35:30 PM] Bronson Quick: turns out that was the reason

    "Load a template part into a template (other than header, sidebar, footer). Makes it easy for a theme to reuse sections of code and an easy way for child themes to replace sections of their parent theme. Includes the named template part for a theme or if a name is specified then a specialized part will be included. If the theme contains no {slug}.php file then no template will be included. "
