It’s 24 hours later, 48 hours total, and I’ve had one spam comment show up and it was in the spam folder, not on the site. No registrations, groups or forum spam at all. So if you’re having spam issues I highly […]

Philo Hagen started the forum topic My Spam Success Story in the group How-To and Troubleshooting 12 years, 2 months ago

I was on tour for two months this summer and normally I’m pretty good about keeping on top of the spam, but on the road the only thing I had time for was content, not maintenance. Apparently the message got out […]

Philo Hagen edited the forum topic [Resolved] Getting BP Repair Message in the group How-To and Troubleshooting 12 years, 2 months ago

Hello. Using WP 3.4.2 and Buddypress 1.6.1 – site: hooping.org

Upgraded to BP 1.6.1 and it said to run installation wizard. I did and then I got this message:

“The following active BuddyPress Components […]

Thanks so much @hnla – I was worried creating the pages would cause a problem, rather than a fix.

Philo Hagen started the forum topic They Shut My Site Down Due To Search Function Overload in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 13 years, 11 months ago

My hosting service pulled the plug on my WP/BP site because they can’t handle the overload from the search function. I don’t know for sure if spammers were abusing it somehow? They’re saying they want a captcha installed to the search function. Is there anything like that? I’d look in the plugins, but it’s all […]

Can anybody give me any insight on this?

Philo Hagen started the forum topic Users can't change passwords in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years ago

WP and BP are all up to date. When users try and change their passwords it generates this error >>Warning: require_once(wp-includes/registration.php) : failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /wordpress/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-settings.php on line 40 Fatal error: require_once() : Failed opening required…[Read more]

Philo Hagen started the forum topic Gotta Move My Site in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years ago

In July I moved one of my sites (hooping.org) off MT and Elgg into WP & BP. Now my host insists I need a “high priority” server and has jacked my rates from 19.95 a month to 59.95 a month. I need to move out. Anybody have affordable hosting they truly love? And the WP […]

Philo Hagen posted on the forum topic Group Forum As Default Page in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 2 months ago

I agree about the potential for groups, but the forum is still the anchor for that and when people are missing it – or better yet think they’re participating when responding to an item in the activity feed that doesn’t connect to the original topic at all – it makes the challenge for engaging readers […]

Philo Hagen started the forum topic Group Forum As Default Page in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 2 months ago

Is there a way to make a group forum page the default rather than the activity page? I’ve been trying to figure out how to solve a variety of engagement problems and this would really do the trick. Apologies if this is already been answered. Did some digging, couldn’t find it.

Philo Hagen posted on the forum topic BP Album+ no working correctly in the group BuddyPress Media: 14 years, 2 months ago

Hey Foxly: I’ve been anxiously waiting this upgrade for quite some time. you might remember that I broke my BP album when I moved it from it’s testing site (http://www.hooping.org/wordpress) to it’s official home (http://www.hooping.org). It was explained that the new media upgrade would allow me to fix this, but having played with the settings […]

Philo Hagen started the forum topic Can a group simply vanish? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

One of our largest groups with hundreds of members is gone and nobody with admin power deleted it. Nothing else is missing so I don’t think it was a hack just to delete one group and not touch the 70+ others. Yet searches here aren’t revealing anybody else losing a group either. I’m baffled.

I’m so excited! Thanks for all your work on this 🙂

Philo Hagen posted on the forum topic New Users Can't Log In in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

And don’t forget to tell your users to check their spam folder when their email didn’t arrive.

Philo Hagen posted on the forum topic Facebook Login? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

@zaimejs check the spam folder. Buddypress confirmations emails routinely end up in the spam folder for a lot of mail servers. In related / unrelated news, I’ve had a problem recently where an individual member’s avatar has started showing up everywhere, like in place of each and every group avatar for example. It’s happened a few […]

Philo Hagen started the forum topic One Avatar Appearing In Place of All Avatars in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

Today I had an avatar image that started taking over all of the group avatars and some member avatars as well. Just some dorky guy wearing a hat, but he started showing up everywhere. Although he wasn’t listed in the newly registered members, I found a member with that same avatar in a comment and […]

Philo Hagen posted on the forum topic One Avatar Appearing In Place of All Avatars in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

Okay, if anybody else runs into this the problem I have deciphered that it stems from logging in with facebook and having disabled that plug-in everything is back to normal.

Philo Hagen posted on the forum topic Avatar Infiltration in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

Okay, so now it’s happened again – only this time it’s someone that I know that I trust implicitly so I’m really confused. Take a look here and you’ll see that her avatar has taken over all of the group avatars: http://hooping.org/wordpress/groups

Any idea what is going on?

Philo Hagen started the forum topic Missing Admin Bar in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 5 months ago

In BP site 1 the admin bar went missing right after upgrading to BP 1.2.5.2 (footer hook is still there). And on BP site 2 the admin bar has been quirky since the upgrade. Some can’t see it anymore, others can, settings work for those who can, login takes all to an error page. Admin […]
