In reply to: No Buddypress database
BuddyPress doesn’t create a database. It only add it’s own tables to the existing WordPress db.
Why are these tables not created ? Impossible to say without more details about your server configuration and more information about how, what and where you tried to install the plugin.
In reply to: Error Buddypress 2.7.2 Theme Extra Elegant ThemesHi,
…may be, but BuddyPress is not specifically developped for a theme. When was the latest theme update and compare with latest BP update. Your question could be inversed: why does Extra not fit with most recent BP ?
Also, sorry for you, but we don’t support premium theme here, as we have no access to their code.
please use forum’s search before asking !

In reply to: bp-template-notice failureNotices and error msg can be related to many things. It’s difficult to tell what desn’t work on your install.
Those msg are mostly displayed via the template_notices hook. This hook is on all bp templates.
(see list)That said, the discribed issue is specific to your install. You’re the only one claiming about it, so i guess you use a plugin or some custom code who compromise msg or notices to appear.
Can you give details about your install please ?
In reply to: Ajax response with opening php tagIn reply to: Problems with menu to BuddyPressHi @mthant,
sorry for your menu trouble, but it seems to me, after visiting your site, that you omitted some important settings steps. So let’s try to set up properly your site menu before adding BP related conditionnals.
1) Each active BP component should have his unique page.
2) Site should have pretty permalinks activated (whatever option but default)For example step 1 indicate that your register page is at /site/register-2. This could be correct, but tells that you created a page called register first, than removed it, and finally recreated a second “register” page. This explains why you have “-2” in the URL and probably a page in the trash. You have to clear it definetly. And you have to ensure that the slug is /register/. Go to dashboard > Pages > Quick edit and correct it.
As BP is active, you should also have a page called by default “members”. His default url should be http://7fc.d70.myftpupload.com/members/.
I assume you renamed it to “directory”. Problemen is that “directory” doesn’t show the member directory, or no message telling visitors they have to log in to see this page…And as you use a lot of different directories, it is confusing, even for you when you try to build a menu.
But you’re using Salutation, which is a premium theme and i can’t help you further to set it up correctly.
But you could activate a Twenty theme for the time you need to create and test how WP menus are created and displayed. And perhaps read through Salutation documentation too. 😉Here’s BP guide about the BP menu you can add aside the site main menu.
And here, the access to any menu related codex articles.
In reply to: Members age showing 46Thank you for the information @hotloverspassion, but giving details about HOW to solve the issue would be more helpfull. 😉
In reply to: Error 404 for non logged in usersthank you for sharing @peterspliid, but it would also be usefull for the devs that you add your fix to this ticket: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7349
so at least it will be taken in consideration.
In reply to: All WP comments displaying on BP pagesIt’s related to your theme. Test it is the case by activating a Twenty theme. Once you have found that it is indeed this, go to your theme documentation or support and see how to remove the comment template in your-theme/page.php or how to deactivate that if you use a framework or a very customizable theme.
This should normally be done via a child theme.
In reply to: Filter gifts by userYou’re wrong and it is not a BP question.
If you’re not comfortable with coding, i would at your place use a working plugin instead of trying to customize something i don’t completely understand.There is a similar one called Compliments (and up to date). Will be easier (perhaps) to adapt or even use as is for your needs ? 😉
In reply to: Buddy Press Changes ThemeIf I can go BuddyPress pages, I can make those changes.
No, not exactly ! BP pages are not ordinary wp pages.
Do you use a child theme ? If so, read Salutation doc first, then check the child theme and sse if it is updated for BP 2.7 new template
As Salutation is a premium theme, we can’t help you much more with this (small) issue. Afaik you have to ask on the theme support.
Hi @sixthgalaxy,
you can use bp_get_template_part function.
Depending what you’re building, consider also this function.
In reply to: Wrapper function if BP is activated?there is a little link on your example to another codex page who give’s you the main reason for using a wrapper.
It is not required, but strongly recommended. Depending what, where and how your code should run, they are diffrent other ways to ensure that BP is active.
the classic phpif_class_exist()
or more a la BP specificif ( function_exists('bp_is_active') ) { // do something here... }In reply to: BP Perma Link structe went wrongHi @excel1,
such URL is odd and shouldn’t appear on a correctly install setup:
example.com/index.php/beispielbeitrag/In brief, your install WP at the site root which is: exemple.com
BP is a wp plugin and by the way, will also be at the root.And as wp is also a blog, that blog is also at
example.com(on a page defined in wp’s Read settings).This means that you can create a page for the blog and name it “besipielbeitrag” and asign this page to posts in WP settings. And make it private or whatever.
BP members or groups will be at
exemple.com/members/orexample.com/groups/and the users atexample.com/members/USERNAME/index.php is one of the files in a theme, but has nothing to do with BP pages or a dedicated blog page.
Also, if
emxampel.comandexample.comare 2 URL for the same site, or if you installed wp in emxampel.com and BP in example.com, BP won’t work.I would recomend you to read attentively the install guide from the begin.
In reply to: Remove Member Directory Without Profile ErrorHi @grimbot,
Members are the heart of BuddyPress. So it is important to understand that members are core and that anything related to them is quite “delicate” to handle.
In your case, removing the member directory doesn’t mean to remove the page called members, because this page is BP territory and, like i said, it is core. If you remove it, you avoid BP to work.
First thing you can do is to remove any access to this member page on your theme.
Go to appearance > menu and uncheck “members” from the BP menu.In reply to: How can I display topics under specific category?You’re on the BuddyPress forum.
To get answers, try better bbPress support.In reply to: when create group slug, add action is better?Hi @ruoge2007,
use code button to insert code into topic, thx.
Code suggestion or BP improvement cant be made on Trac. Devs don’t frequent the forum in depth.
In reply to: Custom msg in own profileHi @fakurkr,
the other solution is to use the existing action hooks existing in each BP template.
Templates are the files stored in bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/ directory.For example if you read the code in buddypress/members/single/member-header.php, you will find not less than 6 action hooks, only for the profile header. This means 6 potential places where to add something like a message.
Th other avantage of this method is that you don’t need to modify any template and that you stay independant from any theme, because you will use a function from bp-custom.php
In your case, adding a message on user’s profile with help of a function like this:
function bpfr_my_message_on_profile () { echo 'Your custom text with HTML code or whatever'; add_action( 'bp_before_member_header_meta', 'bpfr_my_message_on_profile' );And because it is only fired on a profile header, you don’t need the conditional (my_profile). You can of course add other conditions. Sky is the limit !
In reply to: Login error codesIn reply to: Resctrict private messagesplease use the code button to insert code into topics ! Thx.
You use PMPro and share code related to it. That’s nice and kind, but it is probably more difficult for the most of use who don’t use that plugin to discuss with you.
It can help you, here a great ressource to find anything inside BuddyPress: ie. search result for “N”Hi @empressdianna,
You did it right ! Thanks for sharing. I close this topic now, as initial issue is now resolved.
In reply to: How To Activate Existing MembersDeactivate https://fr.wordpress.org/plugins/smart-countdown-fx/, activate 2016 theme and give a try
It seems that this plugin throws an error.
You may also deactivate all plugins, but BP and search for an issue by reactivating them one by one.
And if nothing found for plugins, you have to debug the theme.https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/
In reply to: [Resolved] How to remove tabs from group admin navplease open your own topic. This one is marked as resolved and his subject is slightly different from your question.
In reply to: Group header file problemsdid you check your templates ? Have you tried to use 2016, to ensure that it is/or not a theme issue ?
If it appears to be a theme issue, you have to contact seventhqueen, as we can’t assist you for premium themes.In reply to: How To Activate Existing MembersHi,
wherever your members registered from (wp, bbp or bp), they are all in the same table: wp_users. To be counted on BP’s member directory, these members must have been loggedin at least once.
Did you synchronized WP and BP members (see BP settings) ?
Once done, go to Tools > BuddyPress and run all options one by one. Do also the same for Forums.
