BuddyPress

Just installed Buddy Press 1.2.5 and everything appears good but when I click on a Member’s name to see their profile, something is redirecting me back to the homepage. You can have a look at http://www.givingbirthwithconfidence.org – anyone know how to fix or seen this before?

Usually missing template files will cause something like this to happen.

I have the same issue. Reverting back to 1.2.4.1 makes it work again.

Andy – how do you recommend reverting back to 1.2.4.1? I was able to find the .zip, did you just reinstall it over the 1.2.5 version?

@denisjanis If you need to revert you should just be able to download the old version from trac.buddypress.org and replace the files.

But, it would be awesome if we could try and figure out what’s causing it. Looks like you have a custom child theme, so it might be a plugin conflict or something.

Thanks. I reverted back for now until I have more time to debug and find the real issue.

sorry @denisjanis, I didn’t see your reply. Look like you figured out overwriting the files with 1.2.41 works.

@Johnjamesjacoby, you’re right, I’m using a child theme. The default buddypress theme works fine.

I have the bp-follower plugin installed and using buddypress 1.25 breaks it. The menu items are still there but any notifications in the top menu bar getting clicked results in the redirect to homepage problem. It doesn’t happen with the default buddypress theme.

with buddypress 1.25 and my child theme, I can view domain.com/members/ no problem but trying anything after that wont, domain.com/members/andy/ wont work or domain.com/members/andy/followers

I tried adding a die(‘some message’) in the child themes /members/single/activity.php file but it didn’t have an effect, I tried in various other files and still couldn’t get it to die with my message showing so maybe it’s a redirect or rewrite rule that has changed in 1.25 that isn’t compatible with a command in the child theme?

I will continue to use 1.241 for now but it would be nice to get to the bottom of it.

@commentluv I’ve noticed with BP Followers that if you follow someone and then unfollow them before they clcik on the notification about the following that I get reverted back to the homepage. I expect this is because when the ‘follow’ is ‘unfollowed’ the template for the section that records the followers is removed therefore there is nothing to show. This results in a permanent notification that you can’t get rid of unless you go into the database.

Not sure if it has anything to do with the things you are experiencing?

Hi, I did try to find the 1.2.41 version from trac.buddypress.org but can’t find it. Does somebody have a direct link to download it? thank you in advance.

cool, got it, many thanks!

@rossagrant I have tracked the problem down to a child theme function. The developer was actually the one who fixed it, it was due to removing some of the sub nav items.

all is good again now!

@Andy_Bailey

Do you know what was changed in the developers theme sub nav items to get this to work correctly? I am running into this with my members and forums now.

i NEED HELP! CANT SEE MEMBERERS PROFILE PAGE, NOR WRITE ON THEIR WIRE. I HAVE A CUSTOM THEME MADE BY SOMEONE CAN ANYONE PLS PROVIDE ME WITH SOME ASSISTACE PLS.

I’m having several issues with the members page. The pagination redirects back to the /members page. The profile pages redirect to the homepage. The “All members” link directly links to the homepage. I’m having one heck of a time tracking down the issue.
