Are you using the BP Labs plugin? Could any other admins be deleting those activity items after they are posted but before you read them?
By default, BP has only that ‘name’ profile field. All BuddyPress profile fields are separate and distinct from any field in the WP user profile. For example, creating a field in BP called ‘biography’ won’t have any link or relation to the WP profile field of the same name.
The “profile syncing” option in BP, I believe, only tries to take your BP profile field ‘Name’, and separating on a space, populate WP profile’s First name, Last name, and Display Name fields.
In reply to: Buddypress DB queriesIf you’re going to jump into someone else’s thread; what is ‘quick cache’? Do you have a link?
In reply to: Very slow page loadsIt may be the host or the package, but it’s hard to say definitely from here. In addition to contacting your host and asking them why is your site going slow (they may be able to view log files or other server data), you say you’ve tried WP Super Cache.
Have you tried any other caching plugins? There’s a few things we can try.
In reply to: Sudden BBconfig issuesThat should *not* be in your bb-config.php. If you haven’t edited or overwritten that file, it’s possible your site has been hacked, so I’d check that aspect out first.
Once you’ve cleared any problems with that, try deleting your bb-config.php, then go back to the BuddyPress ‘Forums Setup’ in wp-admin and tell it ‘reinstall’ the forum config.
In reply to: BlogsIf you don’t want to use multisite, the only other way is to use a single blog, and set each user up as Author role (so they can only edit and publish their own posters). Look at how something like Automattic’s P2 theme works (bpdevel.wordpress.com for an example).
In reply to: Display random member listWhat do you mean exactly by a “random member list”? Members are listed at random in any order?
In reply to: Register page redirecting to home?
Fixed (again). Most tedious bug ever.
In reply to: Register page redirecting to home?If you’re already logged in and try to access /register, it redirects you. Not sure if you meant usually or when you are trying to create an account?
Hey, you’re right (again).
In reply to: cant post in sitewide forumsBpd/theme compat issues shouldn’t affect bbPress 2 at all. Maybe go on the bbPress.org forums and see if there are similar problems reported.
We’ll have betas for the 1.6 release, so you can always test in advance. Our goal is to not break your site or cause you more work to fix something.

This might be a new-ish edge case we haven’t caught, since the toolbar became mandatory in wp-admin in WP 3.3. I’ll test BuddyBar on 1.5.4 this evening (I was testing the WP Toolbar previously which might explain).
In reply to: Create a Site! Still there after disablingAre you testing with an admin user? Does a regular user account behave differently?
If that doesn’t work at the moment, I guess it’s not implemented. I’ve not tested that recently, I’m not sure.
In reply to: Very slow page loadsCould be caused by lots of things, so it’s hard to offer any specific solutions. What hosting package/firm are you using?
In reply to: New Blog URL on multisiteIf the URL shows correctly on the sites/create page, but not on the /reigster page, that could be a bug in BuddyPress. Please would you report it to https://buddypress.trac.WordPress.org; you can use your username and password from this site. Thanks
In reply to: Buddypress DB queriesUse object caching.
Are you using the WP Toolbar (what you see on testbp.org) or the BuddyBar (BuddyPress’ older bar)?
In reply to: “Complete sign up” does nothing.Go through your other plugins, one by one, and test each time. It’s a plugin conflict of some description, or broken javascript somewhere (rather than clicking the submit button, try hitting the [enter] button in a profile field — it does submit the form).
In reply to: “Complete sign up” does nothing.Cool site.
I believe this problem is a javascript problem; try temporarily disabling the “google-calendar-events” plugin and seeing if that fixes the problem.
I’ve also just updated testbp.org to trunk (with this fix in) so compare its gravatar against yours, and see what’s happening with the styling.
You’re right that it had broken in trunk again; I’ve just fixed it, and so it’ll update on BuddyPress.org soonish. Thanks for pointing that out.
I tested the 1.5 branch, and the 1.5.4 tag, and both worked fine. On your site, are you able to look at the large gravatar with a CSS inspector and see if it’s picking up these styles:
#wp-admin-bar-user-info img.avatar {
height: 64px;
width: 64px;
}In reply to: Bulk add users to a groupI’m not aware of any plugins that do this
