I don’t know if it’s just certain themes, but

Not that clear what this issue is but you establish whether it’s a true BP issue by switching to a theme BP is expected to work with, by that we tend to mean any of the default themes WP ships with. If issue not present running, say, twentyfourteen then it’s a theme related problem.

~41MB

So maybe wpengine is running default 32MB that php.ini is usually set to and which is very often too low for WP/BP and can cause issues when too many processes are trying to run.

I have to say though that given the other hosts/setups are fine this places issue firmly back with wpengine, although something else may be occurring.

Have you any caching plugins running?

@rickdickinson that first codex page clearly states it’s in regard of the older bp-default setup, this doesn’t mean don’t follow it but you would only do so if you were already working with that themeing approach.

the second link is the one to follow for new install/themes, yes you do need to create a child theme IF you’re working with an…[Read more]

Yes you can!

A better question would have been to explain what you are ‘hacking’ and why and how best to achieve this.

buddypress-functions.php is not necessarily a straightforward functions file, if you overload it you then have to be responsible for ensuring any core changes are copied over, or perhaps you just need to extend the theme compat…[Read more]

Good point – doesn’t exist, MS is a law unto it’s self.

You may need to write a function hooked to the registration process that changes the user role then.

Using FTP or your hosting panel access start renaming any BP plugins you have running until you regain access to your install, renaming effectively deactivates the plugin, this will also tell you what plugin is causing the issue.

>But a problem remains: How can I make ‘Subscriber’ not being the standard user role anymore?

That is a wp setting – settings>general ‘New User Default Role’ You should be able to select any new role created from the dropdown.

You can test for various screens such as bp_is_user() for user account screens, or bp components or directories, groups etc, the Codex is your friend initially for these sorts of things then we can help further in refining that if need be.

Try explaining what exactly your are trying to do here as the title can be read a few ways.

You need to have a javascript file enqueued for this to work so depending on how custom community theme approaches things that may not have been either updated in buddypress-functions.php if that is overloaded or simply not exist if CC theme uses BP templates in the older bp-default manner, might be worth checking if CC is planning an update?

@chester99 the solution to this distinct & particular issue for the OP is mentioned.

Please start a new thread detailing your particular circumstances, setup, issues etc.

closing this thread as it was resolved.

As the error message says – have you installed the parent theme?

Your import path looks wrong for that stylesheet.

More importantly are you sure you want to use the older bp-default theme or did you just land on that particular guide?

If you want the bp-default theme to show up you may need to add this line to bp-custom.php or…[Read more]

First thing you should do, if you haven’t already, is read through the getting started section of the codex, ensure you are as familiar with BP’s components and pages as possible.

Secondly you’ll need to know how your theme handles it’s home page as nothing technically should have changed, so you may not have a BP compatible theme? Helping with…[Read more]

not really help but nudges in the right direction 🙂
wpautop($data) was all you needed.

However there something niggling away about these bp functions and point at which the xprofile functions gets passed through the WP ‘wpautop’, not sure that the get function shouldn’t be parsing breaks to paragraph tags regardless but hey ho.

@whiteeagle1985
Actually it’s more yourself not understanding @bphelp post, I read the response to explain about backing up prior to installing a plugin not to mean that you were ‘installing’ but general advise that would ensure a safe restore point, regardless of whether it was the right advice please be clear that when people do attempt to offer…[Read more]

🙂 Sounds like you tried to tackle a heap of things far more complex than the actual solution you need!

> What I think I need to do is edit echo $data; to somehow include wpautop but I am not finding a way to do that…

You did read that page didn’t you? 🙂

Sorry not being mean 🙂 but your solution is there to be r…[Read more]

Then you will need to extend the functionality. There are filters on these types of functions and a recent ticket where I pushed through additional attributes to be allowed and discussed adding the style attribute for adding css properties inline, that was agreed a step too far, the status updates coyuld start to look ghastly and issues might…[Read more]

>But it is nice to see how you divert the topic away from the issue which is that your plug in doesn’t plug in well with wordpress themes

No I / We are not diverting the issue, I asked you to provide some level of detail I also made the comment that BP is not from experience born over a few years a destroyer of sites, if we could p…[Read more]
