Does the same also work with the bp-sn-parent theme? Or does this one have to be in the templates folder (it looks like that to me from the style.css)?
Ok, I found the reason and am not sure if it could possibly be a bug in bp 1.2, maybe someone more knowledgable could have a look?
Basically it was caused by the groups_add_forum_fields_sql, groups_add_forum_tables_sql and groups_add_forum_where_sql filters being applied to other components as well – which I think is not correct or at least I don’t see what sense it would make.
The code which looks wrong is on line 60 of bp-groups-filters.php:
When removing the “!$bp->groups->current_group” (which looks wrong to me) part it works for my component. I first tried to remove the filters but somehow that did not work.
Thanks for the reply, Windhamdavid. The thing is, I already got forums working fine with my custom component in BP 1.1.3. I just can’t figure out how to convert it to be compatible to the new bp 1.2 even after hours of searching around.
