Not sure if you ever got an answer to this, but I was looking for one. I just built my own custom cancel button and got rid of the “esc to cancel” text.
@Boone Gorges The reason I’m doing it like this is because I’d like to only load the JS when Buddypress is using it, so if the user is on a blog post that has no BP component it won’t load unnecessary JS.
@chefdaniel It looks like your running an older version of buddypress. The latest version doesn’t do this odd password thing your running into. I recommend trying to upgrade. Be sure to backup before attempting anything!
@r-a-y I need a little bit of help with this. My site is officialmancard.com and I’ve got wordpress running in a folder (officialmancard.com/omc/). Same issue as everyone else, all of my BP related links (My Profile, activity stream, etc) all have the /omc/ folder.
I’ve put your code into a bp-custom.php as well as my child themes function.php but I’ve had no luck. Can you offer any suggestions?
Above your pay grade, @stwc? Its not even in my department! Thanks for the feedback though, I have been battling this issue for a while and any/all feedback is appreciated.
@stwc problem is, I’m using wordpress in a different folder than the root of the domain. So my WP files live in domain.com/wordpress/ and my “wordpress blog” is at domain.com.
I was told by sever people, including r-a-y that I need to change the “buddypress default domain” or something of that nature. I was told to put this code in my functions.php file, but it doesn’t work. Any suggestions?
// Getting rid of the subfolder in URLs/permalinks
function my_bp_override_core_domain() {
$domain = get_bloginfo(‘url’);
return $domain;
}
add_filter(‘bp_core_get_root_domain’,’my_bp_override_core_domain’);
Not easy! My site is messed up due to this issue. I don’t recommend it, as I have found now way of fixing various issues. If anyone has an idea on how to fix it, I’d greatly appreciate it!
Hate to be a nag, but my users are screaming for blood. Anyone know why the script gian-ava gave me didn’t work? I don’t know if bribery works (or is allowed) but I owe whomever can help their Man Card (see my site to understand).
I just tried that, and it doesn’t seem to be working. All BP-related links (the navigation bar, after I login it takes me to the broken page, etc) are still pointing to my domain.com/folder. It feels like this should have worked.
Its in my child theme, and just for good measure I’ve placed it at the top so nothing is conflicting with it. Gian-ava and R-a-y, thanks so much for your help with this. Its a gigantic issue on my site and I need to fix it.
Well I just tested that out, and it didn’t work. Its like theres a database entry exclusive to buddypress that says “You live at domain.com/folder”. I’m not sure where or why.
I’d like to ask the community: Does buddypress interact well with wordpress’ feature where the core files live in a folder of your domain? Maybe that is my issue?
I was up late trying to implement this myself using jquery, when I stumbled across Mark it up (http://markitup.jaysalvat.com/). You can do some creative coding, implement the jquery and tell it to apply it site wide, and BAM, you and your users have instant image upload, auto bold and italics, among other great features. Just makes buddypress work more like big boys.
You can see my implementation on my site, OfficialManCard.com
I think it may be easier for you to create a Child theme based on the bp-default theme, that way any files that you have not directly coded will still be in use.
What I did was took the default theme style.css and began to modify it by loading it in a child theme (leave the bp-default where it is, in your child themes css template header call Template:bp-default). Then the need for a custom homepage arose, so I just created one. I did all this and all of the buddypress functionality stayed in place because it was loading from the bp-default – without ever having to re-code every single .php file.
For you, since you have an existing theme, I would load your stylesheet as a child theme, then modify it to match the bp-default architecture(i.e. #content becomes #container, etc). Then you shouldn’t have to rework every single php page, because your style will load using the buddypress theme structure!
@mercime (and everyone else), could you explain in detail how you got the home.php to work with your child theme? I’ve created a home.php in my child theme, but it seems to keep defaulting to the index.php.
I’ve got my site live with this error in it, does anyone have a development yet? The buddypress blog is still broken as well. Shouldn’t this have been fixed in 1.0.3?
New development. The Buddypress.org/blog/page/2/ URL no longer directs you to an error page, but instead gives you the same list of posts as on the first page.
Also, a solution was posted in the bug tracker: https://trac.buddypress.org/attachment/ticket/854/page_2.2.patch but it did not work for me. I’m not sure if its my own stupidity in not realizing where to put it (bp-core/bp-core-catchuri.php?) but it didn’t change anything on my site. I’m still getting the “Sorry, No posts match your criteria”.
Just another note, I’m getting the same issue when I navigate to a Sub-Category. It tells me no posts are available, but I can clearly see my posts in the sub-category.
