Roger Coathup started the forum topic WSOD in wp-admin activating 'site tracking' (upgrade from 1.2.9 -> 1.5) in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
We have a large existing site 1.2.9 that we are trying to upgrade to 1.5
Upgrading is causing a WSOD in wp-admin if we enable the site tracking BuddyPress component.
We’ve switched to the bp-default theme, […]

Roger Coathup replied to the forum topic Massive load issues with buddypress in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
BP does bring a lot of additional queries into the mix, so can increase load (sometimes dramatically as you’ve experienced).. but often there are optimisations you can try to overcome this (some server […]

Roger Coathup replied to the forum topic Is buddypress right for me? Job Recruitment Site in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
We have job postings and different user roles running on a couple of our BuddyPress based websites.
Essentially though, it’s a task that requires a skilled developer, rather than being a simple […]

Roger Coathup replied to the forum topic Using BP content / API to create an iphone app in the group Creating & Extending
You’ve also got the problem that a lot of the API isn’t clean – it churns out presentation HTML (targeted for the bp-default theme) rather than just performing function (as you’d hope).
So, as well as adding […]

Roger Coathup replied to the forum topic Remove the "DashBoard" from the adminbar in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
Just doing the plain: remove_action call in bp-custom.php isn’t working for me either on 1.5.n
Instead, to get it to work, put the remove_action call in a hook on init in your […]

Roger Coathup replied to the forum topic Remove inappropriate warning messages in admin in 1.5 in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
@boonebgorges – the sites go out to clients, so it’s not good to have warning messages littering wp-admin

Roger Coathup replied to the forum topic Want to create smarts fields in Registration like facebook !!! in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
jqueryui has an autocomplete widget you can work with (or have a look at the older autocomplete plugin that’s used already in BuddyPress for usernames e.g. when you send a message). […]

Roger Coathup started the forum topic Remove inappropriate warning messages in admin in 1.5 in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
I use activity items / loops, but I don’t want a dedicated page showing site wide activity.
In 1.5 though, if I remove / don’t set the ‘activity’ page, I get ‘plagued’ by a warning message in […]

Roger Coathup posted on the forum topic Replace Activity Stream blog excerpt with the_excerpt in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
You need to create / edit the bp activity item for that post directly in your gravity forms filter.. As you are not saving / updating the post, so missing the default bp hook that does the activity admin for you

Roger Coathup posted on the forum topic Replace Activity Stream blog excerpt with the_excerpt in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
A couple of points:
1. You are passing the post_id into your my_set_post_thumbnail() function – so don’t know why don’t just use that, rather than doing a get_post with that id, and then trying to use the […]

Roger Coathup posted on the forum topic Replace Activity Stream blog excerpt with the_excerpt in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
@tindell – this is one of several areas where the BuddyPress core API embeds too much markup and presentation, causing a consequent problem for developers.
If you look at my solution on page 1 of this thread, you have the […]

Roger Coathup posted on the forum topic Need static pages with BuddyPress in Community section in the group How-To and Troubleshooting
@katemgilbert – just noticed this. We built helloecoliving.com.
For that site, BuddyPress is installed on the main blog, not a sub-blog.
It just takes a little bit of work in your theme to create a separate tab / page for […]

Which theme are you using? Does it work (with attempt one) if you switch to no-default theme?
If not, did you cut and paste the line? You may have incorrect type of quotes. Try typing line from scratch in editor
