BuddyPress.org

i found a solution below for anyone else that needs it, but it didn’t work 100%. i can now search for all my members, and they all show up when you click on a letter in the member directory but the total count and list of initial members doesn’t show up when you click on the main “Members” link from the front page. ideas as to why?

here is the solution I found if you are migrating an existing site to buddypress. run these 3 separately against your database in this order:

(#1) insert into wp_bp_xprofile_data (user_id,value) select ID,user_login from wp_users;

(#2) update wp_bp_xprofile_data set field_id = “1” where field_id “0”;

(#3) update wp_bp_xprofile_data set last_updated = “2008-12-24 11:39:36” where last_updated = “0000-00-00 00:00:00”;

this will allow your existing wordpress users to have some initial buddypress profile data in order for the member directory to work properly.
