Not sure who this ‘john’ is to whom you keep referring 🙂 but yes he’s about right but this isn’t a defect it’s how BP provides theme compatibility in injected into page template files via the wp content function, this is run through a series of filters though and I would expect shortcodes to be stripped out.

Not really sure why you are trying…[Read more]

This is really a bbPress question, buddyPress isn’t responsible for how bbPress handles it’s functionality. Try posting the question on bbPress forums.

This may be a memory issue, why are you running fastcgi? can you switch to php module for less memory usage?, believe this can be an issue with fastcgi, but other than that dealing with this sort of thing isn’t easy when one hasn’t the issue in front of one.

Server issues are somewhat outside the remit of this help forum really.

You probably ought to track back through the bpdevel site:

For development posts on Codex updates.

We actually have been putting in quite a bit of our time over the last year attempting to lend a little attention to this area, but it is an extremely time consuming and slow area to deal with but apart from some fairly…[Read more]

@1a-spielwiese if you are saying people should reply to old threads then no they shouldn’t and that is not a convention of this help forum but in general. Resurecting of threads is considered bad form especially on web tech forums, old threads are an archive for referring to and that may contain useful information and thus no they are never…[Read more]

Your child theme should simply be the required stylesheet naming the main theme as template: the themes name’ picking up your themes styles if necessary – hopefully they are enqueued so will load up via the themes function.php file.

Now if you want to change any buddypress styles create a folder in child theme top level ‘buddypress/ in that a…[Read more]

No! Essentially the principle in overloading (copying templates) is one of replicating the name of the core file and ensuring the file is located in a directory that matches to the core one.

So we create a directory named either ‘buddypress’, or ‘community’ in our theme or child theme then anything that lives within the bp core directory…[Read more]

You’re using a premium plugin here, really the question should be posed to their support.

This question ir remarkably similar to this thread which is probably the route you need to follow.

Looks to me as though you are missing a mandatory param – ‘$component’ is listed as being ‘required’ if ‘component’ param empty or if the component not active the class returns false, adding a known active component string kicks things into life.

But as you wrote your code you should be able to work out from the core class where things have…[Read more]

But as you wrote your code you should be able to work out from the core class where things have broken and why:

If you do nothing but activate BP then BP uses it’s version of buddypress styles from the minified file in BP’s core template directory, however if you overload that with your own copy of buddypress.css in the correct matching directory in your theme or child theme then BP will see that and use it instead (a normal non minified file). Don’t worry…[Read more]

Well if you think it’s the theme try asking the theme authors how they are doing this, if they reply ‘we aren’t’ then you know it’s not the theme! or conversely try swapping themes and see if that dob field stops working.

What plugins that are listed as BP ones do you have running?, list them as there are ones that extend the profile field…[Read more]

EDIT: how are you displaying ages? Can you share the code?

Paul asked you a question, it’s vital that you respond to these as it’s impossible to help people on threads without detailed info; also it’s important to understand that BuddyPress does not do any birthday calculations from that birthdate profile field so you must have…[Read more]

yep think so 😉 OP take note please, not sure where you picked up on the use of die() but you don’t want to be doing that 🙂

and WP really trying to fathom how ability to render markup in a php function that effectively renders all further action null is at all useful or maybe we’re meant to render a full DOM via it? 🙂

It does though, have you tried creating profile fields? what version of BP have you got installed?

Really! Running a die function midway through rendering a document, in fact what point is there to that extension of PHP die() in rendering html if ones intending on breaking a page beyond redemption. it’s a debugging function you can’t use it in a production site where rendering a page.
