This sounds odd. Can you share a link to where we can download this plugin, and can you give us step-by-step instructions how to configure the plugin to recreate this problem?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

If you have found plugins which broke on 1.6.*, have you contacted the authors to let them know that there is a problem?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

It’s just an out-of-memory error. Check out https://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

You can update the page on the codex yourself, if you want. Just go to codex.BuddyPress.org/wp-admin/, go to Pages, and then find/edit this page.

What version of BuddyPress did you upgrade from?
Are you using the latest available version of the Custom Community theme?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

Hi Ben. Which version of BP did you upgrade from?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

Is your site public? We could take a look and see if it works. It may be a problem with your friends’ computers or web browsers.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

Ah hah. I think I see the confusion.

When BP is installed or update, you need to run the Install/Update Wizard. There’s a banner at the top of the page that shows you this: see https://mercime.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/bp-installation-wizard-01.gif

Once you have completed the Install/Update Wizard, the “Settings” link (and everything else) should work. Can people here check they’ve done this, and let me know if the problem’s resolved?

We can make the Settings link only appear once the Wizard has been completed in future releases of BuddyPress; we didn’t think of this. Thanks for the feedback.

Is the image being squished because of a particular CSS class on it? If so, which class(es)?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

Sven, as you know, that’s really tricky to track down unless we have instructions to recreate. If you can recreate it, you could put in some logging to see what the variables are.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

This doesn’t seem to be a BuddyPress question. Does cometchat have support forums you could ask?

In general, if you can’t find a bit of markup in your theme, just add it.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

There are many, many different things that could affect load time of your site. BP and BBP are large plugins, so they’re probably taxing some aspect of your server setup. Are you running your own server, or are you hosted with someone? If the latter, I’d suggest you start by getting in contact with their support and see if they are prepared to help you find where the slowness is.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

Yes, wondering what you’ve done to get it like that. Have you got two copies of WordPress (http://processpedia.designquotes.com.au/ and http://processpedia.designquotes.com.au/buddypress/)? Or are you running multisite, and “buddypress” is a site?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

@Chouf1 We’ve fixed the NOBLOGREDIRECT thing in 1.6.1

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

Worry about your site, and your content, not Google. Let Google worry about Google.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

Yes, and I work very closely with John; he’s also the lead developer of BuddyPress. You did not ask John about the BBP_Theme_Compat error message. It’s not a BuddyPress class, so it’s not a BuddyPress problem.

You have a standard PHP error message. It’s saying it can’t find the BBP_Theme_Compat class, and you’re using it in /themes/animassrdblogbp_kid/functions.php on line 32. You (or whoever built your theme) need to figure out what you’re doing in functions.php that triggers this errors.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

Intended. See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4090 for a lot of discussion.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

No changes were made to the theme.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

If you’re moving forum content, you probably want to be migrating to bbPress rather than BuddyPress. Check it out, especially its importers — it should give an idea of the appropriate APIs to use.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

This is expected behaviour when you’ve enabled that setting

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

No

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

I recommend against downgrading unless you have a database backup from the old version of BuddyPress. In 1.6, we changed how the BP DB version number is stored in the database, and adjusted the schema of the Activity table.

I suspect running a 1.6-versioned database against a 1.5-site will cause BuddyPress to think it’s not installed, and force you to run through the install wizard again (as it’s already installed, of course, I’m not sure what would happen). It’s then possible you would have problems updating to a 1.6+ version of BP in the future because we’ve changed where/how the BP DB version number is stored in the database.

We’ve got a 1.6.1 coming out very soon, which fixes compatibility with plugins and themes that were doing things wrong before, in ways that we didn’t anticipate when we touched parts of the code in 1.6. The most common themes with problems — Salutation and Custom Community — have already or will soon release updated versions of those themes to work with 1.6, too.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

1stAngel: if you’re using the Salutation theme, update to the latest version. Otherwise, which theme are you using?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 3 months ago]

The memory error is a common problem, and the solution is easily found if you search google: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/fix-wordpress-memory-exhausted-error-increase-php-memory/

If the problem persists after increasing the memory limit and it still says “Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted”, you’ll need to contact your web host and ask them to change this setting for you.
