    The usual test please switch to a theme such as twentytwelve and see if issue persists also ensure some activity has taken place, add an update just to be certain the member is picked up on.

    WordPress.org-approved BuddyPress themes

    Is that a theme name then! helps to perhaps state an actual theme you’re using when this happens.

    @praveshraheja Just to let you know that I have removed that link, they’re is only one place to safely download the core BP files and that’s the official repo, please don’t post links like that again.

    And that link chouf1 provided is the tag list, that is the full release history from day one.

    exactly if you place members in the top root of your theme BP 1.7 will look for that and assume you are wanting to disable theme compatibility, it’s a means of ensuring backwards compatibility with themes already customised or template packed. BP theme compatibility only allows you to overload files by placing them in my-theme/buddypress/members/ (or community), soon, in hopefully 1.8, there will be further means of managing and using custom template parts under theme compatibility which should mean we can move forward from old methods and use theme compatibility exclusively.

    You can pick this gist example set of nav styles apart if it helps:

    Search trac for tickets on the subject I reported on one issue ages back with select options.

    As far as I’m aware the ‘default’ in select terms simply means that which appears first or would be selection if simply returned, possibly this needs looking at for checkboxes, but as for behaviour I would expect the intial value to be false or 0 these are profile fields for users to set not you if that makes sense, and on that note really and truly you shouldn’t opt people in nothing more annoying than being auto opted in and somewhat frowned upon correct way is let people choose to opt in to emails / newsletters

    You don’t mention what theme your using and information like that is important.

    But in the meantime why are you trying to use BP in the older bp-default manner, i.e with template pack and folders copied over, is there a particular reason or did you try simply running your theme and letting BP use it’s new theme compatibility mechanism to find it didn’t work with this theme? If no to the last question try removing those folders copied over, deactivate template pack and see how theme compatibility handles things with your theme.

    @megainfo was this not perhaps something you could have contributed / returned a patch to core to bolster the work Boone put in for the profile aspect.

    It be lovely to see a larger section of the BP coding community helping on trac tickets and the core developers.

    Regardless though it’s a useful addition to BP, well done.

    Based on that it’s hard to know what’s wrong, did you read / follow that link I gave you. Show us what paths your copied files are in:

    /my-theme/
    page.php
    index.php etc
    /my-theme/buddypress/members/index.php

    These files need to be copied over from the /bp-template/bp-legeacy/buddypress/ directory not simply copies of the files you had before with mods in but I’ve mentioned that earlier.

    Adding a link to your site might help if you have it online.

    (once I heard about every theme compatibility, which is awesome).

    However by the look of things you aren’t actually running under the new Theme Compatibility layer.
    Your layout under BP pages and lack of theme compat stylesheet suggests you’ve activated the older bp-default theme? If so you don’t want to be if using a custom third party theme or have you run the BP template pack plugin to make this theme work with BP?

    If you have any BP folders in your theme root try removing them and letting BP theme compatibility take over.

    Not that I know of.

    This is a Camara issue or WP file upload size limitation issue, not a BP one really. First thing is try to avoid uploading images in a raw format from a camara. On the web only deal with what is generally refereed to as ‘Web Ready’ images jpg, gif, png and of a suitable size, then you might need to check what file upload limitations are in effect in WP settings and/or in your PHP settings, these factors though are generally set high enough to allow pretty large image file sizes to be uploaded.

    Well sorry ‘Dude’ I wrote it took me a half day almost so think 1 minute spent looking for it and posting the link wasn’t too much to ask or expect πŸ˜‰

    In reply to: Why not blogs?

    @hnla

    Participant

    If not MS then how have you let every user post, by simply allowing them to post on the main blog or have you used a plugin to allow user blogs? There is no built in means to show blog posts on a users account screens, that would need to coded, the ‘blogs’ tab in user accounts shows a users MS sites.

    In reply to: Why not blogs?

    @hnla

    Participant

    Because you haven’t enabled WP MS?

    That check for has groups can and perhaps ought to be wrapped in :

    if( bp_is_active(‘groups’) ) {

    }

    @hnla

    Participant

    That theme is twentytweleve and is rendering quite normally so not sure what the issue is.

    It’s much more powerful than the BuddyPress profile system.

    I seriously doubt that – the user account / profile is one of BP’s big strengths

    Don’t really see any virtue in ‘?viewuser=2’

    Regardless you request is going to be next to impossible BP has very specific and complex methods for constructing and managing url structures, even if this were possible you would need to have quite advanced skills and knowledge of WP & BP api.

    Cannot login or takes a while before the login is resolved, you appear to be contradicting yourself, saying ‘Cant login’ then later that you did after a wait.

    You need to detail the process as clearly as possible, any errors that you might see etc, what type of usernames have they spaces in them which buddypress has converted into a hyphen?

    Please wait a while for responses before you bump posts 1 hour is far too quick, 24 hours is generally the rule here and it’s the weekend so things are going to be slower.

    Why won’t the theme work with BP’s theme compatibility, most themes do not support BP by default which was why theme compatibility was introduced. How does your theme look when you don’t run template pack i.e not bp folders in theme directory so BP knows to fall back to theme compatibility?

    @hnla

    @famous the function works fine. Ensure you do have a selection of messages checked and that you have then selected the type of message to delete i.e ‘read’, ‘unread’ click delete selected and the will be removed.

    @hnla

    Participant

    Glad it worked.
    One thing to bear in mind, if these changes are in the parent theme you may lose the changes if the theme gets updated so it might be wise to try creating a simple child theme with basic required files plus the two new BP ones to ensure your changes are preserved.

    Marking as resolved.

    Afraid this section is not really standard WP:

    $meta = meta::get_meta( $post -> ID, 'settings' );
     $meta_enb = options::logic( 'blog_post' , 'meta' );

    This is a repeat of the earlier suggestion just in case it wasn’t followed quite fully?

    To test things try copying that file, rename it buddypress.php, locate in your theme root

    remove those two lines above and replace with:
    <?php get_template_part( 'content', 'page' ); ?>

    Then from the twentytwelve theme copy content-page.php to your theme root and see if that renders.

    More than that it’s going to be hard to help with.

    @hnla

    Not quite correct the page-content contents ended up outside the loop, I’ve revised that but it’s hard to edit clearly.

    I see no obvious issues so not really sure what’s not working correctly.

    @hnla

    Participant

    And that is exactly what it should be ‘Without function’ or put another way empty with only a title set. You then go to the BP settings and select that page to associate.

    ‘We’ the forum regulars and contributors core or otherwise do acknowledge the need for better docs but everyone does need to bear in mind it’s a time factor issue, few of us have the time to go and edit docs, update them where necessary, what time is available tends to be prioritised towards code where time and resources are limited.

    On that note I’ll close this thread now as it’s run it’s course.
