Reply To: Only Admins can Accept Friends?

The Genesis version is v1.9.2. The Genesis Connect plugin is free now. I did have it installed before but it did nothing so I went to the BP Compatibility pack instead. The Genesis Connect plug only seems to auto-styles a set of Genesis Templates. This is not one of their templates. It is a custom theme based on their framework and this set does not include the sample child that I began with.

That being said, I went through the hoops of disabling and removing the bp template compatibility pack and activating the Genesis Connect plugin. Aside from styling issues, there wasn’t even a button available to request friendship under those conditions. I’ve gone back to the BP Compatibility Pack. Genesis Plugins only work with standard Genesis offerings and the support in their forum will be of no assistance to me on a custom theme.

I activated TwentyTwelve theme. I cannot cancel the friendship request nor can I accept it.

From where I am sitting, this does not appear to be a missing plugin issue nor a Genesis issue. It is a core Buddypress problem that has been reported and those threads were closed with no real resolution.

The BP Compatibility pack is there for all other themes. My theme is only based on the Genesis Framework so it falls into that category.

Any more ideas?
