BuddyPress.org

@r-a-y and @djpaul Scaling down the login widget avatar to 40px from 60px allowed for more space for long usernames or real names when user is logged in, instead of being wrapped around two lines. Aesthetically, it also made the avatar size uniform with all the other avatars in the other BP widgets.

@newdermeo Go to your wp-admin i.e. example.com/wp-admin and on the left side, there’s a main link named Settings. When you click on it, you’ll find the link to “Permalinks” and click on that. Then you choose other than what is set as default and click on the Save button.

@charlesmabe Testing data

BP – I use this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-default-data/

bbPress – download the Sample Data https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2516 and use WP importer

@newdermeo did you change your Settings > Permalinks to an option other than the default one and clicked on the Save button?

In addition, I only added the link to the multisite configuration just in case you had a multisite installation. Did not intend for you to create one. My apologies if adding that second link confused you.

@newdermeo After activating BuddyPress, you need to configure the components and pages
Single WP install – https://buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-components/
WP Multisite – https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-buddypress-for-multisite/

@lukemack this codex article explains it https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/register-and-activation-pages/

Marking this as resolved.

@jgwolfensberger No problem with WP 4.1 and BP 2.1.1 and bbPress. Just watch out for WP 4.1 compatibiity with custom theme or other plugins.

@janvbear Go for it. Done that on many sites myself 🙂

@michaeltransmissions As you noted above, the ticket as been closed as wontfix on the UI but lead dev enabled plugin authors to create custom levels by adding a new filter. I’m sorry that there is no plugin that I know of created for your needs. You’d either have to create one or hire someone to do it for you or wait till someone makes it.

@jwchameleoncorp BuddyPress Codex (Documentation link above) is your friend.

You will need to install bbPress forums which integrates well with BuddyPress. There is a step-by-step guide at https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/ You just have to decide on what forums setup you want for your site.

I installed BuddyPress using the install wizard

@ryanp11 What version of WP and BP are you on? What theme are you using? Can you change to the Twenty Fourteen theme and check if issue is resolved?

Thanks @danbp

@laura09 try adding the following to your theme’s stylesheet
#buddypress .comment-reply-link, #buddypress a.button, #buddypress button, #buddypress div.generic-button a, #buddypress input[type=button], #buddypress input[type=reset], #buddypress input[type=submit], #buddypress ul.button-nav li a, a.bp-title-button {
color: #000;
font-size:…[Read more]

@laura09 BP enqueues styles which are as minimal as possible so that your theme’s styles could supersede those. There are cases where they don’t. Site url? We’d need to see the issue so we can help you.
