BuddyPress.org

No Luck, buddypress said that it was a wordpress to server issue. but my server company is saying that the gd library is installed and working fine. So i dunno

Ya we are trying to get our website launched and this is out last big bug on the list to knock out! no worries though I submitted a ticket telling BP tech team to check it out. If i hear anything back i will let you know!

I am having the exact same issue!

To start with, have you changed to bp-default theme to check out whether it’s your custom theme that’s not working with BP 1.5.4?

I would suggest that you stick with the bbPress2.+ plugin as it works well with BuddyPress 1.5.4 – we’re lucky that JJJ is the Lead Developer for both plugins.

The current BuddyPress Group Forums (with own custom bbPress 1.0) will be migrated to bbPress plugin sometime BP 1.6

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.4/license.txt ?

– Check if you’ve enable threaded (nested) comments in your Settings > Discussions and if level is set to more than “1”

– If the set up of your threaded comments is correct, WP 3.3.1 and BP 1.5.4 install – check your custom theme if issue is corrected. If not, contact theme developer. Change to bp-default theme and you’ll see that threaded comments are rendering as wanted.

I think I solved it for the most part. Take a look at my solutions and see if it might help you: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/activation-email-key-doesnt-work-i-may-have-the-fix/

I’m really sorry for dragging up an old thread but I just cannot get this to work! I also want to hide the home tab and make the forum tab default in the group pages.

I’m running WP 3.3.1 and BuddyPress 1.5.4 and have tried every code on here to no avail! Any help would be huuuugely appreciated!!

Thank you very much!

Cool. The issue was is that BuddyPress 1.5.4 requires WordPress 3.3 or newer, and you were trying to run it on WordPress 3.0.5

I want to bump this because I think I’m very close to finally solving this for many of us, but it’s going to need someone who is better at reading PHP or understanding the BP Codex.

My activation links work if I register from BuddyPress, but not if I register from WordPress. Is everyone else doing the same?

Here is a link to the new thread in hopes to solve our problem.
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/registering-and-email-activation-links-not-working/

1. You should be using BuddyPress 1.5.4 with WP 3.3.1
2. You need to have “pretty permalinks” ==> dashboard menu Settings > Permalinks – and set permalinks to other than default.

i found something interesting – my new member appeared in the member list, after several attempts to copy paste the activation key, which always kept me on the Activation page as though nothing had happened. so apparently it works, but you get strange behaviour when you do it – making you think it hasn’t worked. anyone else see this behaviour?

@mercine, i have buddypress default theme and have de-activated all plugins except Suffusion BuddyPress Pack. i have the same problem as the guys above. (same wp and bp versions as above.) if i have understood correctly, in the email i received, the string

http://www.mywebsitename.org/activate/?key=9f664b72a0b703fe63a4f61fc2066175

contains the activation key at:

9f664b72a0b703fe63a4f61fc2066175

but when i paste this in the Activation Code box, i stay on the same page and nothing happens.

thanks, regards

Mark, I just downgraded to 1.5.0 and my activation links are still not copying the code into the activation bar.

I’m back at 1.5.4 now.

I would like this solved as well. It seems to be a problem I’m seeing pop up frequently.

Is anyone else also running these plugins:
CIMY
Membership from WPMUDev
Email Login
Ultimate Facebook from WPMUDev
Event Espresso

In short yes, this is my first buddypress setup so first thing I did was to test out registration
This was both in the custom-community theme and the default theme. No other plugins, except bbpress which I disabled to test, still no go.

I am on a timeline so I have reverted to 1.5.0 and the activation step worked in one go. Unfortunately I am having problems as site-wide forums arent available in that version but that would be another topic. If none of the other posters sites are still available for testing, Id be glad to set up a vanilla wp, and buddypress install and provide you with the login and password…

Something in the code has definitely changed. I guess I could do a diff between 1.5.0 and 1.5.4… If someone finds the answer before I get the chance to do that, even better, let us know.

You have not indicated whether you perform basic troubleshooting procedures like:
– First way to address this is to check whether the same behavior applies when you change to bp-default theme.
– To further isolate the issue, if changing to bp-default doesn’t work, is to deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and see if issue is corrected.

So are you guys going to address this issue? I have the same problem on a clean install of wordpress and buddypress with no additional plugins active and have tried several themes. My site is http://www.websitesthatkickass,com/patrick/
