Brilliant. That worked like a charm! The links are now gone. @danbp and @ckchaudhary – I thank you again for your help.

Regarding the links, I took a closer look and was able to see what you were talking about. While it was simply linking back to my own profile, I could see the syntax seemed to be trying to do a search, which went back to…[Read more]

@danbp and @ckchaudhary — thank you so very much for both the assistance, and for actually providing code to fix this! That was incredibly generous.

Regarding the suppression of URL fields, I’ll need to do a bit more digging on that. It may be my theme sanitizing it.

Regarding the linking: sometimes it is picking the first 5 words in a field,…[Read more]

Hi, Henry. Thanks a bunch for your response. I’ve been trying to work through this for several months, and the lead developer on my ISP’s DreamPress installation has said straight up that BuddyPress does NOT work on DreamPress for the reasons I mentioned in my initial post. The Varnish caching is not meant to support a membership site.

I am self-hosting a Commons-in-a-Box setup on the most current version of WordPress, using the CBOX default theme. I am in start-up mode, and need to get my hands off of the technical steering wheel in order…[Read more]
