Just to check have you updated to the latest version if one is out for 1.6 compatibility? Are you able to switch to the default theme for BuddyPress to test if you still get the error – that way we can determine […]

Hi queenieb, would you happen to have a link to see your site in action? Also do you have any other plugins active on your site? If you do, if they are removed does the issue still happen? I’m trying to see […]

I’m not sure if the Invite anyone plugin (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/invite-anyone/) has been updated yet to work with BuddyPress 1.6. If it’s not then until it has it wouldn’t be recommended to use with 1.6.

Ooo there you go – thank you that’s one I’ll be adding to my snippet pile myself 🙂

I understand it may be an issue but lets try and get to the root of what is the issue if possible. I know it can be frustrating and stressful though.

@buddygalaxy: If possible do you see anything in your error […]

Not that I am aware no, it’s part of the new merging with the WordPress admin bar.

No problem, there are a number of great getting started guides https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/ – also a great day to get BuddyPress as it’s just had a new version released today 🙂

Hi Shemada, just as a check have you updated the Mingle theme to it’s 1.6 version? I see that they have released a version for BuddyPress 1.6 so wanted to check you are using it?

If you are – can you also […]

@sobuddy, have you updated your themes and plugin / plugins you are using to make sure they are compatible with BuddyPress 1.6?

The only cases where themes for BuddyPress wouldn’t need to have BuddyPress would be if they have a check in them and say they work without BuddyPress. If you want the ‘BuddyPress functionality’ then yes you […]

Just as a ‘sanity check’ have you resaved your pages / relinked them up under settings BuddyPress?

I’d also suggest you check that you’ve updated your plugins and themes to versions for BuddyPress 1.6 – […]

It’s hard to say what has gone on exactly but lets take a look at some common things that can go wrong in upgrades.

When you say ‘not showing’ do you mean you see a white screen?

The first would be have […]

The BuddyBar has been merged with the WordPress bar in this version of BuddyPress. It actually has a lot more functionality. There is some discussion on this topic […]

Just as a first step, have you tried updating your theme to the latest version that works with 1.6? When an update happens it’s time to also update any theme or plugins you use.

Just to check, have you updated your theme to BuddyPress 1.6? Or have you made changes to your theme to reflect those in BuddyPress 1.6?
