Also, just to get some clarity, would inactive users be causing BuddyPress to slow down all functions on my website, such as loading a member profile, or the activity page? Because the entire site loads incredibly slow on every page, until I disable buddypress. Then it seems to function well.
Thank you both for your responses. My website is quite popular, and like most popular online communities there are definitely quite a few accounts that have not been activated for one reason or another. I would have cleaned these up already but I don’t see an easy way to do that with BuddyPress, and honestly wouldn’t really expect that do break the site altogether. How exactly do I go about batch processing the deletion of inactive users? If BuddyPress doesn’t function well with a large number of inactive accounts, I would think there would be an efficient way to manage them in order to prevent the entire site slowing down to a crawl because of them. Simply deleting them manually would take an insane amount of time. I have to believe there’s a better way. Thanks again!
@shanebp, thanks so much for the response, I really appreciate your guidance on this. I went ahead and made the changes you suggested in all three instances, and while this may have been a part of my issue it doesn’t seem to have resolved it.
The problem I am experiencing is the same as before. The main tab works as it should. but clicking on the first sub nav tab takes me back to the base user profile url and clicking on the second sub nav tab gives me a 404 error. It appears to be an issue with the slug or parent slug, but I’m still very new to all of this so it’s not extremely easy for me to define the exact root cause of the issue.
Again, thanks so much for the help, but my issue still remains. If you see anything else that stands out to you, please do let me know. Thanks again!
