It’s a difficult one to help with, would need to see how this plugin links page selected widgets to page sidebar/page id. You’re going to have to trace back and try and find where this plugin stumbles, which I know isn’t much help really.

There’s probably an alternative one could take coding things from scratch, but again to be able to suggest…[Read more]

When what is deactivated or how deactivated?

BP theme compatibility will use page.php by default unless you overide that behaviour and as such will show it’s content within that page structure so your get_sidebars() calls should be unaffected.

You don’t really go into much detail about the theme your using and it’s setup which does help to…[Read more]

Before asking questions of this nature it’s important to understand how theme compatibility in BP functions, reading the docs first would clarify this, it’s why we write them 🙂

Theme Compatibility & Template Files

If you don’t know how you’re loading BP assets that suggests you are running under bp default theme as a child theme or overloaded all the template files to your theme root e.g themes/my-theme-name/members/index.php that would mean you’re not running under bp theme compatibility (have to admit didn’t look for the other tell tale signs for approach…[Read more]

Good job doesn’t look half bad. One thing though spotted you load the BP JS from the bp-default folder , old bp-dtheme I would change that either copy the file to your theme or grab it from bp-legacy as it will be safer in the long run, when eventually bp default theme is retired and removed.

This is an old thread!

Using CSS to remove objects in this sense is an incorrect, and unsafe use of CSS.

The filter does work as described in the original solution run from either bp-custom or functions files or disable messaging for a complete solution.

And your appreciation is appreciated 🙂 On behalf of the core team of developers and the extend family that help shore things up, thanks and especially the kind words for the codex, we still have a ways to go with the codex but it’s getting there.

you’re more than likely slamming into mail server spam filtering and that’s not the user spam filtering but the actual email server with strict RDNS & SPF checks in place. Generally it’s not understood that you can’t just relay emails from a server from any old domain name, that’s a possible open relay and email servers will block emails that are…[Read more]

‘Almost Pretty Permalinks’ ? == index.php in url paths, windows server?

BP as such doesn’t have real role/caps abilities, bp_current_user_can() is a sort of faux work around so trying to add bp_moderate as a cap won’t work because BP doesn’t set true caps; ‘bp_mederate’ is just a check on something like the WP cap ‘manage_options’.

Recently I needed to add a custom user role for group creation so we could disable…[Read more]

Oh I see, hmm looks like it will be trickier than one would like, seems the extract $atts is causing issue running too late for bp to work with and ob_buffering doesn’t seem to help, works without user atts ok just not when they’re added to shortcode, there’s probably another solution but personally haven’t time to investigate it, maybe someone…[Read more]

BP provides all the buttons you need, if you are not seeing them then you have larger issues likely in the use of a custom theme, but you haven’t mentioned the theme you’re using (see the forum stickies for detail to provide in posts) Have you changed theme to a known working one – any of the default WP ones – this will tell you if this is a…[Read more]

Please also search the forum as this topic arises often so there are quite a few posts that already offer suggestions.

BP 1.9 introduced menu link selection on the WP ‘Menu’ screens, used to add links in just the same way you add pages, cats etc, is that not visible in your menu screen?

It’s not a bug this was by design, we added the widget to both provide users with flexibility as to where they could show notices and as a means of using it as a switch to turn off the notices overlay which was actually provided that way when theme compatibility was introduced and we no longer necessarily had control on a site layout as with the…[Read more]

And all fixed up now – thanks djpaul. Closing.

That’s a recent glitch, we’ll get it rectified.

BuddyPress Codex

? Not really sufficient information to provide much help with, normally you should see that menu at all times the wpadminbar is visible and unless you have custom code in effect then you should see the menus on any page view.
