I discovered the problem was caused by a misconfiguration of the bb-config.php file that wasn’t updated when the website was transferred to a new server. Thanks to everyone who weighed in on the issue.
Thanks Chouf1. I’ve been overwhelmed with work and only had a chance to do more trouble shooting today. I followed your method for deactivating the forums but when I reactivated them the problem remained. I tried using the Default Buddy Press theme with no improvement. I also have a duplicate of the website running for development purposes that isn’t experiencing the issue. I don’t know too much about this sort of thing but could the database be corrupted? If so is there a safe way to remove the database information for the forums and get BuddyPress to treat it as a fresh installation?
Thanks for the reply Mercime. It’s not a new installation. It was working before. However, there are no significant forums existing. If there’s a way to uninstall and then install as a new installation that would work fine. Any suggestions on how I should proceed would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
