In reply to: BuddyPress 1.6 Problems Please Help!!
Keep only BP and bbPress activated and deactivate BP Profile Search plugin then change to bp-default them and check if you can move and save widgets.
In reply to: Members not able to accept friends in buddy press@bigbearink have you tried changing to bp-default theme to make sure it’s not a theme issue?
In reply to: [Resolved] Error when adding a new bbPress topicIt would help if you gave us more information about your installation. https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/when-asking-for-support/
@wadams92101 you can install Group Forums. While it will be merged with Sitewide Forums (bbPress plugin) come BP 1.7 or so; be assured that the merge will be handled as seamlessly as possible. John James Jacoby, the Lead Developer of BuddyPress is the same Lead Developer of bbPress
@htperkins recent install, so I will assume you’re on WP 3.4.2 and BP 1.6.1.
– Where did you install WP in domain root or elsewhere?
– Did you use a webscript to install WP? There have been issues activating BP on WP installed with webhost instant WP scripts like fantastico, softalicious and the like And does your install meet server requirements https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/#system-and-server-requirements
– After you created a network (made multisite) and before activating BuddyPress, have you checked if members able to create a blog?== . Also, still doesn’t work with wp_framework, ==
@jeffthink You’re welcome. Glad you finally resolved this issue
WP Framework theme has not been updated for some time and should not be used with current BP/WP versions.In reply to: Need Helphttps://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-user-frontend/ is for editing posts, profiles, etc.It has got nothing to do with login form.
If you want a plugin solution, there are many to choose from https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tags/login
@awclubbock when you’re logged in, clicking on the register link will bring you to home page by default
As for invitation with code, the ones I’ve seen before haven’t been updated for current BP/WP lately. Check out other possible plugins for controlled registrations:

== It does appear this is a plugin issue wordpress is working great, however the plugin is not working, please contact the script developer for further assistance we will happily assist if server intervention is required. ==
@bounomid Your WP installation should be installed manually not via webhost scripts for BuddyPress to work without issues https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/#system-and-server-requirements
== I only installed BP on the primary domain because of a bug in the BP software that would not allow the installation wizard to run on the sub-domain. ==
I have run the Installation wizard on WP/BP sites in physical subdomains, so I am not sure why it’s not running on yours. If you are on single WP now in your subdomain installation, remember to delete the bp-custom.php file from wp-content/plugins/ if you created one
Windows/Linux hosting? Have you gone to Settings > Permalinks and chosen a permalink other than the default one? If you’ve already run the installation wizard while in multisite, you might not need to do so again now that you’ve reverted back to single installation. Go to Settings > BuddyPress and check if you have the panels per this page https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-buddypress-components/
In reply to: Acount creation Problem== how can I allow user to create account through my registration page.? ==
@mechnoflux enable registration in Settings > General on single WP site
== also how to connect forum directly to buddy press page? ==
Which forum are you referring to, the Group Forums (custom bbPress in BP) or Sitewide Forums (bbPress plugin)?
In reply to: Need HelpThe code can be found in https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.6.1/bp-themes/bp-default/sidebar.php You could ask theme author how to add the login form code in the dynamix theme
In reply to: Installation Wizard not workingWindows/Linux hosting/XAMPP or something else? Single or Multisite installation?
– Deactivate BuddyPress
– Download/installation may have been corrupted. So download the zip file of the BuddyPress plugin at https://buddypress.org/download/ or https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress/ .Unzip in your computer and manually re-upload via FTP/cpanel/filemanager, etc to wp-content/plugins/
– Activate BuddyPressIn reply to: Need HelpIf you use bp-default theme, you’d find the login box in the sidebar on the front page and everywhere. You can copy the code from the sidebar and paste in on the home page of your site and add some styling.
In reply to: Installation Wizard not working== But there’s no way to move between tabs, no “continue” button or anything ==
You mean you don’t see the “Save and Next” button near the upper right hand corner of the panel? https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/setting-up-a-new-installation/installation-wizard/
== Their sizes are 6K and 2K which seem too small, and I’m having a problem downloading them via FTP, even though they have adequate permissions. ==
The sizes are just about the same as what most installations have. Why you’re having issues downloading those images, beyond me – internet connection issues maybe at the time you were downloading the images? Have you tried changing bp-default theme and check if avatar issue is corrected.
In reply to: BP Multi Network== “Multiple WP networks can be created with either: WP Multi Network or Networks+” ==
@jasonewillis WP MultiNetwork or Networks+ goes beyond multisite. It means each subsite in your multisite can become a network with subsites of its own. Both would require IMHO dedicated server and would choke a shared hosting account especially if you’re considering on adding BP on each network. If you’re going to upgrade your server, then yes, paying for Network+ is worth it. The plugin developer is active in the community.
Multisite with subdomain structure example
– example.com (main site)
– subsite1.example.com
– subsite2.example.com
– subsite3.example.com
– subsite4.example.comWP MultiNetwork and Networks+ for example
– example.com (main site of all)
subsite1.example.com (main site of this network)
– subsite1.example.com/subsite1
– subsite1.example.com/subsite2
– subsite1.example.com/subsite3
subsite2.example.com (main site of this network)
– subsite2.example.com/subsite1
– subsite2.example.com/subsite2
– subsite2.example.com/subsite3
subsite3.example.com (main site of this network)
– subsite3.example.com/subsite1
– subsite3.example.com/subsite2
– subsite3.example.com/subsite3
subsite4.example.com (main site of this network)
– subsite4.example.com/subsite1
– subsite4.example.com/subsite2
– subsite4.example.com/subsite3What do you mean by their “DB movement”? Did they move their servers to a different location? Also, do you have a backup of your DB and server files before the “DB movement”?
@obsidianmarketing First of all, you do not need to make anything multisite if it is not needed at all. I just wanted to clarify the environment of your BuddyPress installation as to why the installation wizard is not working per your topic title in this forum. BP works in either single WP or in multisite. So if you don’t want/need to allow your members to create blogs in BP site at e.g. subsite1.example.com, then you don’t need to make it multisite at all.
@obsidianmarketing 2 WP instances or 1 Multisite installation == it all depends on what kind of website you are running.
Example 1: I have 2 WP instances for an organization where the main site, http://www.example.com deals mostly with organization blog/news plus around 700 pages of general information. The subsite community.example.com is the private BP site on a second database.
Example 2: For another installation, it’s multisite and the information generated in the main site is from the user blogs.== Since I already have WP installed on my sub-domain do I need to uninstall it on the sub-domain first? If so does that just mean that I will delete the folder that was created with the name of the sub-domain in the public_html folder? ==
Before you make any major changes to your installation, backup DB and server folders. If you believe that your organization will be better served with a multisite installation, then deactivate BuddyPress and create a network (make multisite) on example.com. Then you might want to import DB of subsite into DB of main site if you already have added a lot of information. In certain cases, you only need to import the XML export from your WP install in subsite.example.com
For more assistance should you go the multisite route, please go to https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite
Where are you hosted? Have you contacted your webhost tech support re memory limits allowance and BuddyPress support? If you are on shared hosting, no matter how large the memory limit you place in wp-config.php or php.ini, the webhost can still control how much is allocated to your account.
In reply to: Where are the Plugins?…Nothing’s changed. BP bbPress and all other WP plugins have always been hosted at the WordPress.org plugin repository. BP.org with special script “gets” the plugins tagged with BuddyPress for https://buddypress.org/extend/plugins/
