In reply to: Upon login/registration redirect to Activity Stream?Read this:

Use bp_core_redirect();
From the commented code:
– Performs a status safe wp_redirect() that is compatible with bp_catch_uri();
eg. redirect to logged in user’s profile:
global $bp;
bp_core_redirect( $bp->loggedin_user->domain );In reply to: Removing “Showing 1 to 5….”Easiest way is to remove it with CSS:
body.home-page div.pagination {display:none;}In reply to: Problem with forum installationDeactivate the bpGroups plugin. The plugin was relevant in the BP 1.0 series; it’s no longer needed in BP 1.2.
Did you actually call the function after creating it?
eg. somewhere in your theme add:
<?php if( function_exists('my_bp_adminbar_notifications_menu') ) my_bp_adminbar_notifications_menu(); ?>Or make a duplicate of the bp_adminbar_notifications_menu() function, rename it and use it.

In reply to: bp-events plugin ported to 1.2.x ?There’s a link to the code in the blog post.. give it a shot

There’s also a demo link to their implementation of BP Events:
Try this in your style.css:
/* Inherit the default theme styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css );
/* Inherit the default theme adminbar styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css );
#header {background:#121212 !important;}Make sure you refresh your page so you can view the new changes.
A link would help.
You need to add !important declarations in your CSS rules since you’re trying to override the BP default’s CSS.
eg.
#header {
background: #121212 no repeat scroll 0 0 !important;
height: 88px;
min-width: 960px;
padding-top: 25px;
}This will override your #header’s background.
In reply to: Activity Entry PermalinksCheck out your theme’s /members/single/activity/permalink.php file.
If you are hosting BP on Bluehost, there have been issues sending out email.

In reply to: Adding a Sign Up buttonIf you’re going to be modifying a template file, make sure you’ve created a child theme. Then, copy over sidebar.php to your theme’s directory and make your changes there.
This will ensure your changes will not break when you upgrade BP.
The “button” is simply a CSS class, so if you use the following in sidebar.php:
<a href="<?php echo bp_get_signup_page(); ?>" class="button">Signup</a>This will give you the same look as the register button.

For friend requests… haven’t encountered the other issues above yet.
In reply to: Can’t Browse to Setting PageFollow what jivany wrote.
Try the snippet in wp-config.php above the following line:
/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */In reply to: Registering MembersSounds like you’re using WPMU.
You should try and redirect wp-signup.php to the BP Register page, which by default, is /register/
Add this to your .htaccess file:
Redirect 301 /wp-signup.php http://yourdomain.com/registerIn reply to: Admin Bar at the bottom of the screenIn reply to: Forum not working (can’t add a post)Copy over header.php from /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/ to your theme’s folder.
Remove the forums link through there.
