I would check the number of queries and speed that your pages pull on average for each pageload. Here’s a link showing a similar method we followed. http://lastblogger.com/archives/339

Try disabling the Events plugin and then seeing if your groups are working right again.

Also, what version of BP and WP do you have?

[@paulhastings0 Participant 13 years, 12 months ago]

Kudos!

To create a new group just visit the groups page (e.g. mywebsite.com/groups) and then click the “Create a Group” button at the top.

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

Thanks for the update.

@dnmedia If it’s happening in your activity stream also then it sounds like you may not have the correct timezone selected in Dashboard >> Settings >> General.

It might be related to your theme and it’s functions.php file or incompatibilities. Try using the BuddyPress Default theme and creating some new users with that, then let us know what happens.

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

Sorry, but no plugin like that has ever been created.

We use RackSpaceCloud which can be pricy, but they’re geared towards dramatic scalability. http://www.rackspacecloud.com/

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

Cool.

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

Here’s a starter: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-mobile/

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

And I assume you’re using the BuddyPress Default theme?

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

First of all I would change it back to the “full name” field until you figure this out.

What versions of WordPress and BuddyPress are you using?

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

Not quite, but here’s how to do it: http://buddydev.com/buddypress/creating-the-sitewide-globalunified-search-page-for-your-buddypress-theme/

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

I’m sure that it can be done. This isn’t exactly what you’re looking for, but if you read the code it might prove helpful: http://wpmu.org/monitor-your-site-in-stealth-mode-as-a-buddypress-ninja/

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

Did you enable multisite in WordPress?

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

I was actually under the impression that WordPress 3.0.1 stopped working with Dreamweaver CS5. Have you verified that this is a BuddyPress-specific problem?

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

@djpaul @hnla So far so good. You mentioned that this is now in branch, but does that mean it’ll make it into 1.2.7 or do we need to do something more in the Trac?

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

This is an old thread from 6 months ago based on 1.2.3. I’d recommend creating a new thread for this.

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

To be honest I don’t remember. It might just display something like “There are no current topics” or something similar to that or perhaps it’ll just default to the only available tab which would be the “All Members” tab since logged-out users obviously don’t have the “My Friends”, “My Groups”, etc. tabs.

Of course to guarantee what logged-out guests see, someone could write an if/else clause that decides what activity to set as “selected” depending whether they’re logged in or not. For the purposes of our website though we don’t allow logged-out visitor to see our pages at all, so it really wasn’t an issue for us.

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

Wow, I think I just figured out how to do it. It’s kind of hacky but I’ll share it with yall anyway.

1. Make sure that you’re working on a child theme of the BP Default theme.
2. Copy/paste the contents of bp-default/activity/index.php into your child theme’s activity/index.php folder
3. Find the line <li class="selected" id="activity-all"> and delete class="selected"
4. Scroll down a few lines further to <li id="activity-friends"> and insert class="selected" just after id="activity-friends"

And that should be it. One thing I’ve noticed though is that the browser still seems to remember what the last tab was that you were using. But if you login into your account with a completely new browser then your default activity tab will be “Friends”.

If anyone else has a less “hacky” solution then by all means share with us.

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

Whoa, whoa, come to think of it then theoretically there should be a single value floating out there somewhere that’s making the “All Members” tab behave as the default.

[@paulhastings0 Participant 14 years, 1 month ago]

Hmm… did some more snooping. The relevant file is /bp-child-default-theme/activity/index.php

Ideally there would be a single function that should generate the current activity tabs, that way we could use the hook to remove the existing function and then drop in our own existing function via add_action();

Unfortunately I see nothing of the sort. Here are lines 18 – 56.

I did some snooping around and found some tips for changing the ordering and defaults tabs of groups, but nothing on the default activity tabs.

I found a thread that @modemlooper made a couple months back discussing the issue. I completely forgot that I had posted on the thread.
