but as soon as i turn it into a multi-site, new registrations via buddypress don’t work.
@alimjivraj
– Did you activate BuddyPress via Network Admin > Plugins activate BuddyPress?
– Did you configure BuddyPress in a subsite instead of the main site?
– What other plugins do you have activated? Did you check whether anyone of those plugins have conflict with BP registration?
– What are your WP/BP versions?
@mdg706 please do not offer to give admin account information in these forums. We won’t be responsible if someone hacks your site.
– Did you go through this information before activating BP in your site? https://codex.buddypress.org/user/before-installing/
– Have you asked tech support at your hosting provider if your current hosting plan can handle BuddyPress? Some would ask you to upgrade your hosting plan before you can activate BuddyPress.
@julianwagner if you want all your BuddyPress pages to be full-width, the simplest and only thing you have to do (save probably some minor CSS tweaks) is to create a new file named buddypress.php
Then open up your theme full-width template then copy all code within. Paste the code into your buddypress.php file (remove Template: xxxxx) then upload buddypress.php to your theme’s folder in server.
@doqel1 like I said, I see the WP toolbar. Just so we’re on the same page, that WP toolbar is the bar at the top with Login, Register links and the search form.
@rairai-ni have you tried reuploading BuddyPress manually i.e. via FTP? Have you double-checked your Settings > BuddyPress panels and resaved settings?
@rairai-ni What other plugins do you have activated in your site? Check if those are compatible with latest BP version. If not, deactivate those plugins and check if members of private group can see group’s contents.
@barronlau “Blog Details: I’d like to add new site” shows up for multisite installations if you did not remove that option for a user to create a blog in your site.
Go to My Sites > Network Admin > Dashboard. Then go to Settings > Network Settings –> Registration Settings, then only choose User accounts may be registered.
@wyldesites I just set up a new installation WP 3.6 and BP 1.8.1 and registration with activation email is working.
– Check server email configuration – if you deactivate BuddyPress, does the registration process work for you? Where are you hosted?
– Deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and change to Twenty Twelve theme. If all’s well, then activate theme. If user can register, then could be one of the plugins. Activate plugins batch by batch while testing to check which is interfering with registration/activation.
