BuddyPress.org

@bottleinfrontomy start at the beginning.
– Hopefully, you did not install WP with webhost’s one-click install as that is not kosher with BuddyPress installs where you need to have full control of your site
– Deactivate all plugins, change to Twenty Twelve theme and then activate BuddyPress.
– Go to Settings > BuddyPress and configure Components,…[Read more]

@hellen83 The problem is in your installation. BuddyPress does not append /forum to a newly created group’s home page. Basic troubleshooting: deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and change to Twenty Twelve theme or BP Default theme. Then create a group.

I have tried creating a menu item that points to the actual “forum” itself, but it returns with “page not found”

What is the title/slug of your main forum page. This main forum page should be created via Pages > Add New. At the very least, if you forgot to add the forums index or other available bbPress shortcodes to the main forum page before…[Read more]

@famous check out or download plugin in github which has been updated for BP 1.7 https://github.com/boonebgorges/buddypress-group-email-subscription

@dswd tested on install with WP 3.6 beta 3, with plugins – BuddyPress trunk and bbPress trunk – and Twenty Twelve theme. Steps #1 through #6 are the same for me. For step 7, when I go back to groups, I am not a member of that group yet. Done this with 7 other regular users and I get the same results – not a member of that group unless I click on…[Read more]

Basic troubleshooting: deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and change to Twenty Twelve theme. Was registration process working before you activated BuddyPress?

No. There’s no notification for group status updates in default installation.

@bottleinfrontomy at least 3 users have posted in this forum re pagelines framework. Deactivate pagelines theme and the pagelines-buddypress plugin then change to Twenty Twelve theme. Check if issues are resolved. if not, deactivate plugins batch by batch to check which one is causing conflict – including those in mu-plugins folder.

Members page is not visible in the top menu bar

@waterfiend check out http://wpmu.org/how-to-build-a-facebook-style-members-only-wordpress-buddypress-site/ or have a look at different solutions posted for a private BP site at https://buddypress.org/support/topic/protecting-buddypress-pages-from-non-logged-in-users/

@discdemo thank you for posting back with the plugin causing the conflict

@tudmak This is the file you should be adding the HTML/CSS to https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.7.2/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/member-header.php
or you can use bp_before_member_header() or bp_after_member_header() to add the HTML and position the item where you want it in your stylesheet

@brew62 thanks for posting the issue and resolution.
BP Gallery 1.0.16 is compatible with BP 1.7.2 There have been a lot of changes since BP Gallery 1.0.9

@junithorn I placed the link to that page because I had modified member/single/index.php and other files in a Responsive child theme and had no issues with sidebar nor footer widgets.

– Did you create a /community or /buddypress folder within your child theme folder?
– Did you follow the directory structure where you copied the file you wanted to…[Read more]

@stephenbuck415 you can still use the styles posted above. You add that to your theme’s style.css file or to stylesheet enqueued by your theme

Before the change I had the grey around the navigation of friends forums etc but that disappeared with the templates being disabled.

Not quite sure what you mean. You lost all BP styles? What do you mean by “templates disabled”? BP components are rendered automagically via theme’s page.php file.

@thecrow72 basically, BuddyPress uses the WP email functions for its registration process. Deactivate BuddyPress, bbPress and other plugins then check your WP registration/activation emails, etc. If it’s not working, then please resolve your issue at https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting

Before activating BuddyPress, read…[Read more]

@sarathbabu_k can’t even guess what’s up with your installation. Need more information like WP/BP versions? Theme used? Plugins installed? New installation or upgraded from previous BP/WP version? Did you check if links in posts (blog posts or status updates or forum posts?) were working before BuddyPress was installed or not?

@njore simplest way is to add the following to your theme’s stylesheet
ul.item-list li div.item-desc {
max-height: 50px;
overflow: hidden;
}
