Did you ask buddyboss support about your issue?

Are you using a caching plugin like
https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/

You cannot cache everything or you will get stale pages or sections of pages.

Using a plugin like w3 total cache, you can control what is cached.

HI,

I am attempting this as well.

I went into custom.css in my buddyboss theme (it is reflective mobile ready theme)

I thought I was adding this in the right place by putting it in global area, but it did not work…

have never been near css before so clueless…

here is what the page looks like with my addition… it did not hide the active (how long ago) item…

can someone please advise?? I saw to add it to the bottom, but that seems not right given how this is set up… did I do something wrong with brackets, or spaces or something?

I tried it with, and without, the dot in front of the word span…

I replied to your other post as well.

The BuddyBoss theme includes Photo uploading to profiles and groups out of the box (mobile uploading as well):

Photo Uploading

Self promotion here, our BuddyBoss theme includes Photo uploading to profiles and groups out of the box (mobile too):
http://www.buddyboss.com/demo/members/guest/pictures/

Photo Uploading

You would need to set up some other system for voting up the photos though. BuddyBoss also comes with a system to “Like” content, and shows who liked it. You could change “Like” to “Up Vote” or whatever and then create a custom built section showing the most liked activity posts, limiting it to the ones with photos uploaded. You’d need to edit some code for that.

@buddyboss my bad, when I installed 3.1.3 I did not remove the /members/single/home.php override from the BB theme. Just deleted that file and all is good.

@cuisire_ceo It depends but found the following most useful after googling so much to only come up with garbage past dated scraped/syndicated content.

The most important question is what the Purpose for Your BuddyPress Use/Community. The only way I have wrapped my head around it is to work backwards but with that said…

Heres What I consider some of the Best Round Ups and Buddy Pep to Follow:

Tammie Lister @mercime http://wordpress.tv/?s=tammie have some great talks and also have just googled for any slides from the various presentations. If not able to see video.

Also check out her book that only seems most current: https://buddypress.org/2013/11/buddypress-theme-development-by-tammie-lister/

Boone Gorges @boonebgorges http://wordpress.tv/speakers/boone-gorges/ and most notable this presentation: http://wordpress.tv/2013/12/10/boone-gorges-herding-cats-with-the-buddypress-activity-component/
or anything Boone from Youtube via WordPressNYC great example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPpU3ySo5q0 in understanding of GROUPS.

Of course John James Jacoby jjj @johnjamesjacoby (sorry jjj: he rambles often:) but found this useful in just using a simple profile I believe this is the session maybe others can reference it “WordPress Profiles” http://wordpress.tv/2013/10/04/john-james-jacoby-everything-you-want-to-know-about-bbpress-and-buddypress/

So you probably thinking Wow but you have not answered anything on installing 🙂 Believe me it helps so much to think big picture of your whole community than start working backwards as single page/components to map similarities to constructed it.

This is one of the most useful tutorial of theme I had purchased which the developer went MIA but it was an AHA moment for me. Because Buddypress are Custom Post Types thats Relational Data/Fields
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cc3Er4S4EeQ & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7b9TFw6ZAQ
. I know what you thinking this is not my intent or not relevant. Start watching #2 at 2:16 to think in context of Simalirty.

Finally, The only other best other video tutorial that just a setup instruction. I have found online was BuddyBoss (don’t even own the Theme) http://www.youtube.com/playlistlist=PL5kBYJSuuvEj3KqG_lnAa9MxpZumjtTdY

and Mathis on VIMEO. The biggest problem is finding the resources in a central location so I have to track down.

I hope that helps as resources. It really would depend on how you see your community of your people and how its relational in context

I installed BuddyBoss 3.1.3 and now I get the blank Notifications page again. I had it working in 3.1.1.
I’m on WP 3.8.1 and BP 1.9.2.

Hi @BuddyBoss,

Try and play with this plugin if you really want to import user data to custom CRM applications (it’s a little old and was developed for another WP plugin):
https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-crm-buddypress-xprofile/

Feel free to download that plugin, study its source, implement whatever customisations you want as per Woopra and test to see if it solves your issue.

P.S. If you end up modifying that plugin to accommodate other important user data fields, don’t forget to rename it to something else and block off ALL its internal call for updates (whenever the parent plugin is pushed for updates, otherwise ALL your changes will disappear should you mistakingly push through with the update).

@buddyboss I updated to 3.1.1 BuddyBoss theme and I now see the notifications page. Thank you.

Same here, my user clicks “Request Membership” button on a private group and gets page that says “This is somewhat embarrassing, isn’t it?”

I’m using BuddyPress 1.9.1, BuddyBoss theme 3.04

@betson Are you also using the BuddyBoss theme like JeffE, or another theme? If so, please update to a recent version of the theme and it’ll fix it immediately. If not, contact your theme author. We had this issue by previously making edits to /members/single/home.php. BP 1.9 added a call in there for the Notifications page, and since we had previously edited that template (overrode it within our theme) it caused the Notifications page to go blank. If you’re using another theme they possibly had the same issue, so possibly it’s the same solution.

This is the line that fixed it:

elseif ( function_exists('bp_is_user_notifications') 
&& bp_is_user_notifications() ) :
bp_get_template_part( 'members/single/notifications' );

That goes with all of the other template calls in the “item-body” div.

Hey there, I’m the author of BuddyBoss. This is not the default behavior in the theme. Have you updated to the latest version? 3.0.6 put out a patch for notifications before BuddyPress 1.9 came out, and I have a feeling you’re using a version prior to that as that could cause a blank page without the patch. If you still have issues after updating head over to our support forums and TJ will happily help you out.

@buddyboss no inevitability there. Check out many responsive table solutions http://css-tricks.com/responsive-data-table-roundup/

Same problem here, when any of my users go to their Notifications page it is blank. I’m on latest BuddyPress release with BuddyBoss theme with no customizations.

@buddyboss if you’re not happy with the notification tables then you can remove the default and add your own. e.g:

remove_action( 'bp_notification_settings', 'messages_screen_notification_settings', 2 );
// remove the rest too... 

function custom_notification_settings() {
   // your own custom stuff
}
add_action( 'bp_notification_settings', 'custom_notification_settings' );

@buddyboss
A relatively simple suggestion for 2.0 – Get rid of tables in all templates so developers can style everything for mobile without having to override templates to convert tables to lists. Notifications and Messages use tables right now and they don’t have to.

This is fundamentally a really bad notion, you do not change markup to suit devices – ever! Markup exists to accurately describe data in a semantic manner if that means that a table is the correct element then a table is what is used; if a devise can’t handle that then it’s the devices problem, if you have to try and change the markup in that instance then so be it and good luck.

‘Notifications’ correctly uses a table to display a columner/row relationship of data it’s not a case that it needn’t, this is correct; if you tried to put that into a list you would break the header relationship and would need to lump all of a notifications meta into one list and then have to use something like a dl list to associate date received to the metadata.

Of course though if you wish to modify the templates for your theme then you’re quite at liberty to do so that is why they are overloadable!

BTW BuddyBoss looks great, really has come along way.

Would be awesome to at least have a nice iPhone ready theme available.

BuddyBoss is an iPhone / Android compatible theme for BuddyPress.
