Try this plugin.

BuddyPress Moderation

[@destac Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

It sounds more like a potential plugin conflict or PHP error. When you are setting the page in BuddyPress’ setting page and hitting save, I am assuming that your page is reloading without error but the page is not set once you hit save correct?

You could try checking WP_Debug to see if there are any errors being generated or by checking your servers error logs as well.

[@destac Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

Actually, I believe this is in the correct space.

Currently, my understanding is in BuddyPress we are making an association between the forum that you add during the setup screen and then retrieving the topics of the associated forum.

Which means this is, in fact, a BuddyPress issue. However, I don’t know how much of an issue this is because while subforums are possible within bbPress, the implementation in BuddyPress has no way to add Subforums (or to even create a forum as a category for that matter). This simply means the use case would only be those who have an administrator level and can create those from the backend.

Did you install any sort of anti-spam plugin? Many of them tend to treat university email addresses as spam as it is a common tactic for email spam?

Also, check with your host to see if they are running something like apache spamassassin and see if that’s preventing you from receiving the spam emails. (while typically its used for inbound emails its always good to see). Otherwise, you can also try using a plugin like.

Easy WP SMTP

And setting it up via SMTP to see if that helps any.

I don’t know what you mean by making the full WordPress backend come under BuddyPress, but with BuddyPress your front-end can be expanded to do a host of features that the back-end is typically used for. Even for adding posts?

Of course the admin panel is meant for the administrator to manage their site not everyone should be accessing it.

[@destac Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

While I can see what you mean this is something that’s more tied to good website design. Most themes with a BuddyPress focus tend to include an icon in the navigation when they are logged in when you are logged out why would you be looking at your profile?

Here is what my new work in progress looks like in the main navigation with an icon of the user when they are logged in.

[@destac Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

BuddyPress updates can’t make content just disappear. It looks like the “reviews” are being stored as comments so if comments which could have been deleted in a number of ways but there just isn’t enough info I haven’t been able to replicate this behavior on any of the sites I manage.

[@destac Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

This plugin looks like it does what you’re looking for.

BP Multi Network

Also reference: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installation-in-wordpress-multisite/

[@destac Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

You would add that code to your functions.php file or a site-specific plugin.

[@destac Participant 8 years, 3 months ago]

It would be incredibly difficult to help debug this without a live example. I am counting this as a bump

[@destac Participant 8 years, 3 months ago]

I can say this I have seen some sites with several thousand views a day do just fine on shared hosting. Since this site though will have a few concurrent users (logged in with BuddyPress) you will want the server side caching with varnish.

I think you should be just fine a simple managed hosting for this site go with the HostGator host \0 you will save some money and time

[@destac Participant 8 years, 3 months ago]

try refreshing the permalinks settings >>> permalinks (hit the save button without changing anything)

[@destac Participant 8 years, 3 months ago]

I mean its possible but it also comes down to cost vs time. You probably don’t know how to develop something like this and it would probably cost more in the long run to hire x developer to make something even half as good as other options.

[@destac Participant 8 years, 3 months ago]

It’s quite possible since most managed hosts use Varnish or some variation of server side caching. Just remember the traffic is not the biggest issue per day it really comes down to the amount of concurrently logged in users.

But its definitely worth a shot for that little amount of traffic if I am expecting little concurrent users. Remember though just because they have caching server side it doesn’t mean to ignore the frontend optimization and also look at running CloudFlare (even though they have their own CDN).

[@destac Participant 8 years, 3 months ago]

What about with plugins? Try disabling all plugins that aren’t BuddyPress then try it? If it works then renable them and disable each one by one until you find the conflict.

[@destac Participant 8 years, 3 months ago]

Shared hosting is not suitable for large community sites. Also, WP Rocket isn’t going to help much here and that is because it only supports full page caching which isn’t suitable for community sites (you can’t serve cached pages to logged in users).

If you have some experience you can grab a cheap $10 digital ocean VPS
https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/

Then you will need to either do server side caching (Nginx, varnish, something). Or if you want to setup something more simple setup like Redis (kind of the opposite but) and then grab the W3TC Fix Plugin and setup Object and DB caching.

https://github.com/szepeviktor/fix-w3tc

As for a CDN. This can vary if you are looking to replace storage on your server get something like Amazon S3 if you want more performance run CloudFlare you could run them both at the same time if you know how to configure it.

Finally, you want to combine all of your site’s assets and do a bunch of on-page optimization.

[@destac Participant 8 years, 6 months ago]

Amazing thank you and that actually looks pretty straightforward.

[@destac Participant 8 years, 6 months ago]

I have another potential fix if the above one is not working for anyone.

if ( ! function_exists( 'myarcadetheme_remove_bp_wpseo_title' ) && function_exists( 'wpseo_auto_load' ) ) { function myarcadetheme_remove_bp_wpseo_title() { if ( ! bp_is_blog_page() ) { $myarcadetheme_front_end = WPSEO_Frontend::get_instance(); remove_filter( 'pre_get_document_title', array( $myarcadetheme_front_end, 'title' ), 15 ); } } add_action( 'init', 'myarcadetheme_remove_bp_wpseo_title' ); }

You can add that in a site plugin or a child theme’s functions.php

Also feel free to rename the function to whatever you want \0 I like to keep it the name of the theme I am using

[@destac Participant 10 years, 2 months ago]

Okay well I am really stupid guys and I am sorry for wasting your time and offending the first guy i managed to fix it.

I manually created the databases renamed all my databases for security and it is 100% functional so I really am sorry for wasting your guys’ time >.< sleep well and happy Halloween….

Steps I did.
1. MY second website had Buddypress databases I dropped the information and kept the formatting.
2. I optimized all databases through the phpmyadmin
3. I repaired it as well.

Now it works thank you

[@destac Participant 10 years, 2 months ago]

Your theme does not support Buddypress according to your developer it is best if you contact your developer and ask him/her and see if they can include or help you work out the issues with their theme and Buddypress

[@destac Participant 10 years, 2 months ago]

2. Directory

Additional Issues
All users are marked as spam.. I was reading on some earlier issues and everyone is marked as a spammer upon registration in the extended profile tab. There are also no groups in the extended profile tab which is odd and I cant create it without it giving me an error saying

“There was an error saving the group. Please try again”

[@destac Participant 10 years, 2 months ago]

It came across as rather rude and condescending but if you didn’t mean so i am sorry for taking it that way

[@destac Participant 10 years, 2 months ago]

It was a joke….. Clearly I did it to have some fun and make it more fun didn’t expect a rude comeback….

[@destac Participant 10 years, 2 months ago]

Forgot to include my website link sorry
