Sorry if we missed it modemlooper, but as an experienced developer of BuddyPress, if we miss anything silly/important like this, shout and scream about it 🙂
I understand, but that still sounds like we’re arguing over semantics. Please don’t mistake my brevity as rudeness. Creating a new topic doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll get a response quicker. Closing similar topics posted by the same person and directing people to one topic helps people find answers in future, especially if they come into the site through a search engine; this happens fairly regularly here.
Since I’ve spent a bunch of time writing this much text: yes, your request sounds possible. Not out of the box, but I’m sure it’s achievable with some custom code (I’ve not seen any plugins that do this).
I don’t know if bbPress — the plugin which powers forums — has a “pending moderation” status for new topics. The folk over at the https://bbpress.org/ support forums might be able to clarify. Lastly, as bbPress is built on post types, it is definitely possible to trigger things to happen when a topic or a reply is made. You’d have to grab a list of users, and then send an email.
It really doesn’t. I assume we’re talking about WP’s /themes/ folder. If you’ve been sticking themes inside /plugins/buddypress/BuddyPress-themes/, then yes, they would be removed (don’t store custom themes there).
Until I release a new version, you’ll need to turn down PHP’s error reporting level, or otherwise stop these messages appearing on the screen. Your web host ought to be able to help with this.
If you have site creation enabled, the link going to myprimarysite.com/blogs/create/ makes sense, as myprimarysite.com/register/ is primarily used for new user registrations.
The database warnings don’t appear to be critical; thanks for checking them out.
If you’re talking about the “prepare” warnings: I am aware; if you have WP_DEBUG turned on, turn it off (for now). If you don’t, it’s your PHP error log settings which are probably controlled by your web host, and they may be able to offer some workarounds to suppress the errors from appearing on-screen for now.
We’ve heard reports but not been able to recreate this which is hindering further investigation. If you can reliably recreate, are you able to do a traceroute to codex.buddypress.org and see if something’s timing out?

If you get a white screen when activating, look in your web server’s error log and let us know what the messages are. You may need to ask your web host for support if you aren’t sure how to access the log.
The WordPress error message says you need to get its parent theme; this is probably Tersus itself, and I found it on Github:Â https://github.com/splorp/tersus/
Install and activate that plugin, and the error will clear for the child theme.
Please also don’t ping most of the core BuddyPress developers on Twitter in future; these forums are the best place for support.
If the themes state they are compatible with the latest versions of WordPress, and they don’t work, you ought to contact their authors to let them know there’s a problem. This topic doesn’t help anyone; it’s just a moan.
