In reply to: Missing users and redirection issue on user profiles
Point 1 is probably your issue.
BuddyPress does not work on installations where you give WordPress its own directory.
To resume a default BP install.
your-site.com is the root. Generally a folder called htdocs or www. Once WP is installed you have something like this:
serveur/path/www/wp-admin
server/path/www/wp-content
server/path/www/wp-includesBuddyPress goes to /server/path/www/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/
This will not work if you use BP /server/path/www/mysite/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/
In reply to: Yellow notification top barI’m very patient. I learned that you like poems.
I now would glad to know if you speak BuddyPress ? I’m still waiting some information related to your site…
Which BP version do you use ? What is your theme name ?
Sorry to tell, but I ignore what is the yellow notification top bar !
In reply to: Blank pages overloadSorry for this late answer, i missed your topic.
You can follow a similar topic here:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/problem-after-updating/#post-236965Did you solved the issue ?
Can you give more details about your install (theme, plugins, php version) ?
Are your on a local or live site ?If you want to answer, do it on the other topic, where the discussion is more advanced.
Closing this topic to avoid duplicate. Thank you for your comprehention.
I opened a ticket: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6335#ticket
Login (same as here) and subscribe, so you can follow dev’s opinion. Not sure they come to the forum quickly.I’m not sure it is a BP issue. Could also be a plugin or a corrupted one who takes action when BP is enabled. Can even came from WP itself.
So i strongly recommend you close the site access. You will loose much more as some signups if that issue is viral.
Have you some server access log to share ? Or warnings coming up ? Activate debug in wp-config
You (we) have to wait for more opinions about this. Keep calm and stay confident.
I missed that topic, sorry !
If you’re on a production site, put it in maintenance mode.
Do you know how many such pages are created each time you activate BP ?I call the rescue crew.
@jjj, @DJPaul, @boonebgorges, @mercime, @hnla, @shanebp, @henrywright
any idea ?
In reply to: adding filter ( new navigation in tab)Which “old stuff” are you refering to ?
I want to learn: well !
But i want to learn and give me a snippet is antinomic.
You have to choose, dude 😉
In reply to: Theme for magazine content plus social networkHey, that’s a digit geeking speech ! Twenty Twelve and Twenty Fifteen are respectively WordPress default theme. 2015 and 2012 are even faster to write, specially for me.
Does it make sense ?
While (i wrote period – but i’m french – it’s not the punctuation, sorry. During the time is more US english) building your project (discussing with your client, your team, dog and what ever…) and WordPress, you need a theme. Default theme has the avantage to “work” with WP and… BuddyPress.
While struggling with a third party theme is another story which can be handled quietly AFTER your project is near to be completed. Growing step by step.Once the foundation is solid enough, in other terms !
Does it make more sense ?
See if you have previous BP pages in Trash. Revert them back if exist. If not, clear the trash anyway.
Untitled pages can be renamed. At least, members, activate and register.
Then recheck BP page settings.
In reply to: Yellow notification top barA blue bird is singing in the green forest… Nice isn’t it, but now what ?
You can’t close it because it is yellow.
Going from bar to bar let’s think you are drunk. 😀
If you’re tired to read my nonsense, you can prepare some elements which might help somebody here to help you !
But only if your colorfull explanation will let you retrieve your site URL, theme name or even some crazy awesome plugins you’re using ?

Problem is see is the green toolbar, containing wrong links, ie: profile button goes to your-site/members/admin/profile/ and your premium theme, for which we can’t help you, because we have no free access to it’s code.
Revert to 2015 theme and deactivate all plugins except BP.
Make it to work correctly. https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-components/
Set pretty permalinks to what you want, except “by default”.Ensure you have the Buddy menu showing on 2015. You should see at least: activity, members, groups. Test them and ensure you go to the right page.
On the top right Howdy menu, you should have all BP elements concerning your profile (friends, messages, notifications…), of course only if you activated these components.
Once it is working with 2015, you can activate your theme.
At this stage you will probably see some layout issues and will have to do some CSS adjustment.
Contact theme’s support to get help for that.In reply to: Black Arrows everywhereSorry, but we are unable to help you with premium theme issues, as we have no free access to it.
Ask your theme support.If you’re comfortable with HTML and CSS you can check page.php from one of WP’s default theme and compare to your theme page.php to get some of the custom div’s class or ID’s it use, so you can adjust them from inside of a child-theme.
In reply to: Remove 'Activity' item and content from profile pageProfile default tab is member’s activity. You have to modify this first and assign another tab to default. For example, profile tab.
define('BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'profile' );Now you can use this to remove the activity tab. Note that the second if is related to visitor, you can remove it if you never want to show the activity tab.
function bpfr_hide_top_nav() { if( bp_is_active('xprofile' ) ) if( !is_user_logged_in() ) { bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'activity' ); } } add_action( 'bp_ready', 'bpfr_hide_top_nav' );Which kind of answer do you expect if don’t give any details about your running install ?
Site url, theme and plugin list please !https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/
In reply to: Black Arrows everywhereI’ve tried changing themes and they disappear
What is the problem now ? Your theme is certainly using an arrow picture for li elements. Go to /your-theme/style.css and remove it.
Giving your theme name would be helpfull.
In reply to: CPT per each BP-UserAdd a post/page using your already created CPT to profile needs to add a tab and to handle some conditionnals for allowed usres to see it.
Here some related topics where you can see how you could do it. Note that it doesn’t explain how to made a CPT and how to handle user access. But will easy to find on Codex or this forum.

In reply to: CPT per each BP-Usersee if this plugin may help:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-xprofile-custom-fields-type/In reply to: Username vs Real Namethese fields are required by the system.
WP ask for username, password and email. When BP is activated, he uses WP’s name option Public Name so he can rely to WP. This field called Name is the only one which is required by BP for that reason.When you visit dashboard > users > your profile, you have a tabed page with profile options (the original WP user manager) and Extended profile (which belongs to BP) where you can edit your profile. On WP’s tab you see login, first name, last name and public displayed name. On BP’s tab there is only Name, which reflects what is in first and or last name.
In wp_users table, you have user_login, user_nicename and display_name
user_login and user_nicename have the same content
display_name contains first and/or last name (if exist from a previous WP install, before BP installation).Depending what and where something needs a name to work (avatar, comment, notice, activity, etc), one or the other name option is fired.
If you don’t need/want real names on front end, you can use this plugin:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-usernames-only/In reply to: Missing users and redirection issue on user profilesWhich is the config you use locally ?
How is the profile page url formed ?
Is your member directory containing a members list ?
Have you enabled debug in wp-config ? See if you get warnings or notifications.Could it be you use a multilingual plugin ? Deactivate it and contact the author and also your theme support.
Same issue & same theme author mentionned here:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/php-error-log/In reply to: All comments being displayed on user profile pageSee theme’s documentation or ask on their support how to arrange this. As you us a premium theme, we can’t help you here as we have no free access to it. Thank you for your comprehension.
In reply to: Missing users and redirection issue on user profilesyou’ll have to check your settings conciensiously.
First, deactivate bbpress and BuddyPress. Launch WP alone, just in case of.Activate BuddyPress and review the settings. Each activated component should have his own page, without any content. Activate permalinks and use any option except “default”.
Sync BP and WP users in BP settings.As BP component you need at least Messages and i recommend you Extended Profiles for better UX.
Now go to dashboard > tools and repair BP. Back to front and see how BP works. Test messaging.
Activate bbPress and read here before starting to set it up.
After bbP settings, return to dashboard > Tools and repair the Forum
Cross finger that the sky doesn’t fall over your head. Buddy, you’re done ! 😉
In reply to: Theme for magazine content plus social networkhi @scribbleben,
thought there is no theme who fit a project to 100%. It’s only a tool to show a project. And BuddyPress is only a plugin, which let you handle a user community in a certain way.
You don’t need a page builder. BP is fully dynamic and WP publishes posts like a champ, so you probably won’t need more than 2 or 3 pages over those effectivly required by BP.
You don’t need a framework theme if the project is for one client or if you use BP 2 times a year for other clients.
You don’t need a theme full of bells and whistles, but an utility tool which let your client earn money or live with his community, without spending tons of hours to learn how his bells plant is working or returning to university to doctorate for a whistle diploma.
I would suggest use 2012 or 2015 during the period you build the project. Find an acceptable compromise between client desire, needed plugins and eventually some custom functions to add. Once that structure is built, you will incorporate it to a theme.
Your 4 points.
1) WordPress
2) BuddyPress
3) BuddyPress
4) WordPress and BuddyPressSo i’ve probably resumed your needs or even what you already did.
Which theme is the closest ? Almost any, but with 30 000 themes under the hand, it’s not an answer.
The important thing to know would be your client’s opinion about internet, web sites, ergonomy, personnal surf interrests. Equally, the specifics about hosting, bandwith, maintenance budget, supported device, target usage, and a few other little details which you haven’t listed
yet.Is this your first BuddyPress experience ?
If so, perhaps visiting some BP sites online will help you to come nearer about what can be done – independantly of any layout consideration in a first step.See Your BuddyPress forum
or my own showcases here and here (french, european and word site examples).In reply to: Admin bar translation?The po file you used initially contains errors or missing strings. This file is on glotpress and indicate it is 100% translated. Problem is, that Glotpres doesn’t control the syntax and 100% translated doesn’t mean working to 100%.
If you use this po file as work base, you have already 95% translated and probably some typo errors. poEdit handle this and shows you which strings are not “completed” or have “changed”. In this case, you have to validate the translation. Such difference are highlighted in a different color, so they’re easy to see.
It’s not automated, but a kind of.

In reply to: Profile pages missing contentHum, i tested the theme. Member and group headers are not displayed. Strangely the code is in the page, but is not read ! I applied some CSS and get no result. Seems theme use class instead of ID’s in some places. And i’m not willing to debug this.
You have to get in touch with the author. Tell him about this issue or use another theme if you don’t want to wait for a solution or struggling with code for an undetermined time.
Tip: Iconic-One is similar, fast, light weight, pretty well coded in html5 and works flawlessly with BP.
