Hi Tammie,

Looks like I had a few plugins previously installed that needed to be turned on. I turned on the BuddyPress Template Pack and it all dropped into place. Thanks again. You got me to using my head. Thanks!

Thanks Tammie,

How do I confirm that I’m including the BuddyPress admin bar styling? Its been a long time since I’ve looked at a BuddyPress installation. I tried to include a link to the site but apparently we aren’t allowed […]

I recently had to transfer my BuddyPress site to a new server. I had to cobble together from a couple of versions of BuddyPress to a new remote server.

Updated to WordPress 1.3.2, BuddyPress 1.2.9, PlatformPro 1.5.2 w/ Platformbase […]

I always search a forum before posting but this forum’s search capability is broken or something. It doesn’t work well. I often get messages that are unbelievable with nothing found. I’m not using obscure terms. Often times, anything past the first page in the search results is non-existent or page is blank. Here is my […]

After reading that thread and assuming there is nothing new in the works, for anyone with similar needs the actual answer is you cannot do it with any currently available free plugin. IOW, you can’t get there from here.

@eborg9 Did you ever find a solution to making BuddyPress display real names? Or at least hiding the stupid username? I just read your thread on the topic and cannot BELIEVE how you were treated and forced to work so hard all for mostly nothing.

Anyway I’m considering contacting a WordPress developer I know to make such a plugin. Wondered if you…[Read more]

I came to this thread and read all the way through hoping I would see the answer at the end of the rainbow. eborg9 totally has a point and boy he sure had to work to make it. eborg9, I feel your pain. Case in point, I am using BuddyPress for an alumni group. They […]

I would like to hide my members usernames and only use their first name and last name. Their names already show in my site so I’m hoping that maybe it would be simple to hide the username sitewide. How can this be accomplished? Thanks.
pcgs51 started the forum topic Need to display real names in the group Creating & Extending: 14 years ago

I need to display real names in my BP community. Actually I need to display “maiden names” because my site is an alumni site. There is a link in the extend section of this site but it is sort of a dead link. Something is wrong with it. https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-real-names/ Any recommendations how to accomplish this? […]

Thanks again Jeff. I have a feeling that my audience won’t use this forum because it is a bit of a thinker for the uninitiated but at least its in place and I know its working. I had hoped to put the link to the forum in my nav bar and offer text links throughout […]

THANKS so much! Yes, the directory does exist. I did the DB backup, removed the bb_ tables, ran the forum installer. Returning to the forum setup I see this: bbPress forum integration in BuddyPress has been set up correctly. If you are having problems you can re-install NOTE: The forums directory will only work if […]

Hi Jeff, I didn’t see your post before I made my last reply. OMG! I was over thinking this one. I didn’t realize that Buddypress had a copy of bbPress included in it. There is sort of a good reason for that but I won’t go into that part of my situation. Yes, I was […]

I do see a possible problem here but don’t know enough about databases. I could get myself in way more trouble. I see in the bb-config.php file that my Table prefix is ‘bb_’ but in the bbPress installer log I see that the table prefix is ‘lh_’ (my wordpress table prefixes are set to ‘lh_’). […]

Hmmm, I see that bb-config.php is currently set to: 666 What should it be? I tried 644 didn’t work. I see the directory is set to 705. I tried 755 as per most WordPress logic. Tried it with the document inside being both 666 and 644. When you say absolute path do you mean literally […]

I installed bbPress into WordPress/BuddyPress site. Following the bbPress installation instructions, I uploaded bbPress into a folder and renamed it “forum.” I pointed my browser to the install page and filled out the three step form and all seemed to go well. I got an email from the bbPress installer stating that my installation was […]

Most my community are used to this because we are migrating to a new CMS. We have to shut down a paid CMS solution and I will ask them to re-register at the new BuddyPress one. But yes, I will try to remember to make things very clear. I hope to only let people who […]

I feel your pain. Did you ever figure it out, Droogs? I see you’ve gotten no reply and I have the same situation. Installed BuddyPress v1.2.6 into WordPress v3.0.1. It used to 404 when logging out and logging in. But now my log out seems fine. But when I attempt to login I get a […]
