@donsony first deactivate bbPress from Plugins > Installed. Next, check if your bb-config.php is still at the root of your WP installation and if the DB/user information is still correct.

@johnbarrett you need to install/activate BP Template Pack plugin to make your theme compatible with BuddyPress. Following is a list of “template-packed” WP themes including some from elegant themes. https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#template-packed-wordpress-themes

Note however that what works in their theme might not work for you, it all depends on the HTML structure of your theme. Initial scan of your theme’s source looks like you need to revise 16 template files for BP compatibility.

@farandhigh you should be posting this at this in forums of buddyvents plugin author. I’ve added Buddyvents to the title of this post just in case someone who uses the plugin could help you.

@raminjan open up your theme’s header.php and post in pastebin.com then post the generated URL here.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

If you deactivate s2member plugin and change to bp-default theme, does regular registration work?

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

@raminjan Multisite installation? Open up your theme’s header.php file and check if the site homepage URL was hardcoded on the logo

== It was installed with Fantastico. Is that a problem for BuddyPress? ==

@clamoreaux There have been issues using a webhost script with BuddyPress https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/#system-and-server-requirements

== Do I have to use WPMU to use BuddyPress? ==

No. You can install BuddyPress on single WP installation since BP 1.2

== Is there any good documentation that walks one through setting up and using BuddyPress? ==

@myhero I suggest that you get myarcadeplugin to work perfectly first in a plain WP install before you activate BuddyPress and use the BP Arcade theme. Best places to ask for support are at theme author’s or arcade plugin’s forums.

Thanks shawn, not a spammer but someone making a request for a game ala Facebook. I think something got lost in translation.

Deactivate the other plugins esp Events Manager where I recall seeing an issue with BuddyPress in WP forums. Check if you can create groups now.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

@godleuf Using BuddyPress can be a good solution for property managers. And yes numbers 1-7 are all checks. Site Admin can be someone from the Corporate office. Each group can renamed and represent each property and the Group Admin/s can be renamed and show respective property manager/s. And “members” of each group are the respective tenants for the property. If the properties involved are more sophisticated than the one-level management set-up, you can even go multisite and choose one from two BP MultiNetwork plugins.

An experienced BuddyPress developer can set up, recommend free or premium BP/WP plugins to invest in for the rest of the site or even create the plugin from scratch.

@ansidious My condolences to the family and friends of the man who passed away. On BP 1.2,8 — bp-default theme, Lines 51 through 77 show the generated menu items in header.php file https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.2.8/bp-themes/bp-default/header.php where the dev could have changed the slugs and other URL

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

== Call to undefined function get_header() in /htdocs/myfolder/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/blogs/create.php ==

@dasteralo2 try re-uploading the BuddyPress plugin folder manually, via FTP/cpanel/filemananager etc. Also, I assume you’re using bp-default theme just to check out the functionality of BuddyPress. If you want to make any revisions, you should be create a child theme of bp-default theme and make the revisions in the child theme

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

@giannisff you can create a special template file named => home.php and upload it to your child/WP theme folder in server. You can create everything from `<!DOCTYPE ….. down to closing ` in that file. For example, no need to add get_header as long as you have the doctype, head, body tag and the code in that file. And same goes for get_footer as long as you have the closing body and html tags there

== The plugin buddypress/bp-loader.php has been deactivated due to an error: Plugin file does not exist. ==

@prolet What Paul said. Activating BP Template Pack plugin wouldn’t in any way cause that error. We have successfully “template-packed” more than 80 WP themes in this forum alone https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#template-packed-wordpress-themes

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

== BP version. 1.2.8 / WP version 3.4.1 ==

@ansidious I have to say it, BP version 1.2.8 is compatible with WP 3.1 and you should be using at least BP 1.5.7 with WP 3.4.1. Cool to know that you could still push BP 1.2.8 to WP 3.4.2

== My issue is that I can create and edit menu items in the admin of wordpress, but I can not find for the life of me the menu items created with BuddyPress ==

Since you[re still on BP 1.2.8, the menu is hardcoded in the header.php file used by a bp-default child theme or a WP theme with BP template pack.
bp-default supports custom menus since BP 1.5

For individual members pages -> http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-custom-background-for-user-profile/

For individual group pages -> http://buddydev.com/buddypress/introducing-buddypress-group-customizer-lite-allow-group-admins-to-change-buddypress-group-background/

For other pages, CSS hook on body classes automatically generated for each page is easiest way to go

No problem. Closing this topic.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

I am answering what you’ve stated in “I would like for a login to not use the admin bar and it all be a front end deal.”

As for registration, Paul asked you what you needed that was not already in BuddyPress, where by default, you can create xprofile fields in base (primary group) which users can fill up during registration. Then you could create a new profile group and fill it up with fields which users can fill up after they have registered.

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

@denysz more info is needed to help troubleshoot. WP/BP versions? Did you go through the Installation Wizard after you activated BuddyPress? What theme are you using?

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

@artxx please post at Cubepoints forum https://buddypress.org/community/groups/cubepoints-buddypress-integration/forum/

[@mercime Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

First time I’ve heard about this. What theme are you using?

Edit – you should contact theme author of Dynamix theme. Looks like the author incorporated BP into the theme per demo http://dynamix-buddypress.creativeworkz.co.uk/ could be some conflict
