    Hi,

    do you mean this plugin ? If it is the case, you have to ask the author directly.

    Or if you only want to add some comment to a content you share, you can use this plugin. It is outdated but still working (i use it without trouble since years).

    Depends where you need that and what you exactly want as result. You can hardcode something into the child theme template or use some CSS trick like this one.
    Or maybe you need something like this ?

    That said, be default, when you mention a user within a blog post or any update, a class name is automatically added: “bp-suggestions-mention”.

    When you mention a user in a bbPress topic, there is no class name. But that’s lazy bbPress mentioning, not BuddyPress. If so, ask for this on their support.

    it could be possible that your host plan doesn’t allow you to use BP.
    it could be possible that you shouldn’t use php 7.1, as BP is not completely ready to use this latest php version.

    To get sure, create a php info file and upload it at the site root (same level as wordpress)
    Once uploaded, go to your-site/phpinfo.php. There you will see all information i asked you about your install. Check them and report them here please.

    If you have an access to a php config via your host admin interface, go there and try to set it to php 5.6 or 7 instead of 7.1

    Yes, it is not recommended to use 3rd partys automated WP installation tools. It is also not recommended to use page builders. Such tools are rarely updated, correctly maintained and often bugy… For 1.5$/mounth you can’t expect the creme de la creme, even if talented marketers try to suggest you the opposite.

    Hi,

    please give more details… what kind of post ? Blog, update, forum….
    By the way, BP doesn’t handle blog posts.
    Read documentation about emails here:

    Hi,

    Nav items are displayed as list, using <li> tags.
    For example, the HTML of the user’s group count on profile menu looks like:

    <li id="groups-personal-li"><a id="user-groups" href="http://../../../groups/">Groups <span class="count">2</span></a></li>

    To style the counter with brackets, you can use before and after selectors, like this:

    #user-groups span::before {
       content: "["; 
    }
    #user-groups span::after {
       content: "]"; 
    }

    Css reference.

    Hi,

    not sure that this plugin was made to run with a defined root blog.

    If you have issues with settings, you better have to ask for help on their support, or at least, read the documentation.

    Hi,

    the only valid URL to theme customizer is:
    ../wp-admin/customize.php?return=%2Fwp-admin%2Fthemes.php

    BuddyPress pages are not customizable like ordinary WP pages. BP pages have dynamic content and can be adjusted to any theme directly by CSS and a child theme. These page should only exist with a title, and nothing else.

    Depending the theme you use, and his complexity, customize it to your need first. Once your WP works with the desired layout, you activate BuddyPress.

    This should work flawless, out of the box generaly. If you estimate that some details, like a header width or an avatar size should be modified, you do that directly via CSS.
    Read codex for more details about themes.

    localhost/wordpress/index.php/members/: this is wrong and shouldn’t be used – even if you think it is working. It is not and that’s why you get a 404

    This path should be localhost/wordpress/members/ or even localhost/members/
    You cannot have a slug to a file followed by a directory. This doesn’t work, never and nowhere.
    index.php is a file
    / is a directory
    members is a directory name

    Your htaccess is wrong too (at least for a standard install). Read here.

    Check your local server settings first and reinstall correctly WordPress.
    They’re hundreds of tutorials on the web. Select a recent one (> 2015) and follow the instructions.

    @danbp

    Participant

    I mentionned “groups” because you asked about forum – usually bp+forum is group forum…

    What have you entered as site url in WP settings and what do you have in htaccess file ?
    Did you enabled pretty permalinks ?
    What is the permalink of your members page ? (the one under the page title, when you’re on the WordPress page editor screen)

    @danbp

    Participant

    Check your forum settings and sync WP and BP users.

    Usually on a local site, and standard setup, while you use BP group forum, the forum slug is:
    http://localhost/groups/group_name/forum/
    If you use wampp, you should have a list of virtual hosts (aka site names), where you installed wordpress. This means also that wp is at the site root. If your site is called mario, you install wp there and then you should have http://mario/ Once BP is activated, you’ll get http://mario/members/ or http://mario/groups/ and so on…

    The link to the forum user/author/commenter is
    http://localhost/members/member_name/

    When you use bbPress as standalone forum (aside or without BuddyPress), the link looks like

    http://localhost/root_forum/single_forum/forum_name/
    Link to user is the same as the one indicated previously.

    More details here

    Installing Group and Sitewide Forums

    You can also follow the bbPress install guide if you use bbPress separately.

    @mohamedouqas, @vidalpaulo

    if you want to change the labels for you theme you can go to your theme directory and search for these words and replace them. That’s a rough, dirty trick to avoid. 😉

    Much more simple, and best practice by the way, is to use the language file shipped with your theme.

    Customizing Labels, Messages, and URLs

    But as we’re talking here about BuddyPress, most of the items are in the BP language file.

    “Follower” sounds more like used by another plugin. But again, you’ll find it in that plugin language file.

    2) There is a plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-login-redirect/

    3) you’re right, this need some custom coding. Read here how to do that:

    Navigation API

    If you search the forum, you’ll find many examples too.

    Are you on a host plan who has the minimum requirements or does your host offer an automated WP install ?
    PHP version 5.6 or greater
    PHP memory_limit: 64 MO
    MySQL version 5.6 or greater

    Do you have similar trouble when you install another plugin ? Try to install bbPress, as test.

    For now, access to your site by FTP, delete BP from plugins directory and upload a fresh copy.

    You could also try to delete BP via the dashboard and try to reload it via the plugin installer. Sometimes uploads went wrong and some files are then corrupted.

    Hi,

    basically, you can get it by using WP’s get_bloginfo() function (read here).

    There is also this BP function bp_blog_description(), which works when you’re in the blog loop.

    You have also several action hooks in the blog template (bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/blogs/blogs-loop.php) you can use to insert a blog description to the blog list.

    Sorry, I’m unable to reproduce your issue.

    Can you try with another browser ?
    Can you activate browser debug tool and check for some java errors ?
    If not, can you share an URL ?

    No. Chat is plugin territory.

    Hi @archie22is,

    thank you for your report. But when you write such information, it is of your responsability to give correct information.

    Such alarming title can confuse any user. It is unfair and to be honest, it is only concerning you (it’s your install who has that issue, not WordPress or BuddyPress, in their globality). Especially that the error message has nothing to do with BuddyPress.

    In other words, you annonce 2 wrong information on the wrong forum.

    The error is related to bbPress. And there is already a topic about this warning on WordPress support.

    Read it and try to repair or add your own opinion to that topic.
    Open also – if none exist – a topic on bbPress support.

    Do you use a child theme ?

    Please be serious,

    why do you use index.php (it is a file), when i give you the correct path in my previous answer ?
    Such URL‘s can’t work: http://eltconjunction.com/index.php/groups/

    You’re on buddypress support forum and your BP pages where correctly displayed, a few hours back when i visited your site.

    The error you have now is related to ppress. If you have issue with it, you have to ask for help on the appropriate support.

    I invite you to read any plugins documentation you want to use BEFORE using them. And encourage you to learn a bit about internet, wordpress and how to build a site…

    @danbp

    Just checked your site… seems to work !

    http://eltconjunction.com/register/ is ok
    http://eltconjunction.com/members/ is ok
    http://eltconjunction.com/members/Alliebells15/ (your profile is……. OK !)
    http://eltconjunction.com/groups/ is ok (no groups, but the page is correctly displayed)

    So what is the problem ? Do you mean perhaps some missing buttons to access those pages ?
