@hughshields Thanks for letting us know what the real issue was. Good luck.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 9 months ago]

@ofloveandbeauty thanks for the screenshot. That menu is not generated by BuddyPress. It’s more like it was generated by another plugin which probably needs to be updated by the developer.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 9 months ago]

@hughshields What theme are you using? What plugins are activated?

I have created the buddypress sidebar in the themes settings.

@queertownabbey per layout of all your BuddyPress pages, the default page.php layout is full-width. Since we don’t have access to the premium theme, will refer you to examples of we’ve added sidebars to pages which are full-width by default at https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-theme-compatibility-and-the-wordpress-default-themes/ specifically with the Twenty Eleven theme

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 9 months ago]

I previously had the “BP Compatibility Pack” without knowing that I didn’t actually need it for the new BP version. Could that plugin have cause the issue at hand?

If you mean the BP Template Pack, then yes, you don’t need it. I would delete that from the plugins page. If you already ran the BP Template Pack with your theme activated, then remove the BuddyPress folders which might have been moved to your current theme in server namely: /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 9 months ago]

@abses91 the platform theme has a proprietary templating system which could have caused that issue. You’d need a simple buddypress.php file in your site’s theme folder which includes the HTML structure you want for all your BuddyPress pages along with WP loop with wp_title and wp_content. On another note, wasn’t there a plugin to bridge the platform theme with BP? Have you tried checking out or posting at the platform theme’s forums to see if others have experienced the same issue and if they have resolved it?

P.S. RE plugin bridge – that was for another theme.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 9 months ago]

BuddyPress has been deactivated in your site. Could just be a theme conflict. Next time, check BP with on of WP default themes.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 9 months ago]

@learningeveryday from what I gather from your original post, you want a way for members to publish a blog post from their profile pages, right? Check out http://buddydev.com/buddypress/introducing-buddyblog-allow-users-to-blog-from-their-buddypress-profile/

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 9 months ago]

@wkolcz You created a child theme of what parent theme? Have you checked out https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/a-quick-look-at-1-7-theme-compatibility/ ?

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 9 months ago]

@ofloveandbeauty Don’t you need Genesis Connect for BuddyPress plugin anymore for your StudioPress theme? Have you checked out StudioPress forums if others have resolved the same issue?

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

But all of a sudden nothing works.

WP/BP versions? Theme used, plugins installed? https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@frueck24 Fixed in https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5299 in upcoming BP 1.9.1.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@mdpane thanks for posting back. Marking your topic as resolved.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@wolfied deactivate the Ajax Search Pro plugin and check if you can create new topic and reply. jQuery 1.7.1 was not coming from theme but from that plugin, sorry missed that in initial scan.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@petdailypress Thank you for posting back 🙂

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@mdpane @airsid Fixed in https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5299 in upcoming BP 1.9.1.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@petdailypress Glad you resolved it on your own 🙂 For the sake of those who might find themselves in the same situation, what caused the endless loop? Plugin conflict or something else? Cheers.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

Upgraded to 1.9 and the Register page is suddenly blank.

Blank as in the whole page is blank or do you mean there’s no content under the Register title?
Have you checked Settings > BuddyPress > Pages to see if there’s still a page assigned to the Register section?

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

None at this time.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@ecoportaluk Did you install https://wordpress.org/plugins/genesis-connect-for-buddypress/ or have you checked out StudioPress forums re BP customizations?

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@emcdaniel09 Wait for BP 1.9 which will be released tomorrow. All BP-specific links can be added easily to any wp_nav_menu in Appearance > Menus.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@wolfied You need to update your theme. I just noticed you’re still using jQuery 1.7.1 in source view while the theme’s demo rightly shows jQuery 1.10.2

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@wolfied Could be theme or plugin conflict. Change to Twenty Twelve theme and check.

[@mercime Participant 12 years, 10 months ago]

@marya521 Check admin menu Settings > BuddyPress > Pages and see if the Activate has a page assigned to it. https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/register-and-activation-pages/
