Did you check with BuddyBoos maybe they would know better. I did go to search since I don’t know Dutch I searched “Jupiter”. & got sent to activity page than try to show Posts but nothing for the results.
Maybe look at your widgets for search posts. Also it could be something with you making your home page something other than a static page and/or recent blog posts.
BuddyBoss are suppose to be great so I would probably ask them.
Hi all,
I’m using BuddyPress for my website http://www.starry-night.nl.
Starry-Night.nl is a customised buddyboss theme site with the activity page set as home page. This is also the problem with the wordpress search. WordPress Search only searches the activity page (only that context) and not the entire site/db. Searching from let’s say a wordpress page redirects to the activity wall.
Prob. a small fix but beyond me.
Best regards from the Netherlands,
Marc
ps: the search is only possible when logged in by default (wp-adminbar).
@bphelp
But this has nothing to do with the bp-default theme? This is a theme that is based on twitter bootstrap customized to match with a buddypress site. It also works with WordPress that has no BP enabled…
I feel that there are just a few really good themes for BuddyPress out there like BuddyBoss and recently InspireBook by rtCamp. Im looking to contribute to that list 😉
Cheers,
Aron
Once again for the lookout for an album script that will work seamlessly and logically with WP 3.9 and BP 2.1 (currently testing with 2.1 alpha)
Latest version of Buddypics by moderlooper not working
Rt media has no buddypress favoriting, no tagging by default ( tagging comes at $49! but not full tagging it seems)
http://plugins.bpdemos.com/bp-gallery gives no demo of what it does, no test-download-version either.
I am looking for the very very basic album features
– users can create albums
– multiple thumbnails in stream in a row or asynchronous grid (display number limit-able by admin)
– if one photo in stream, comment goes to that photo and shows also in stream
– if multiple photos in stream comment made in stream goes to album and shows in stream
– integrated favorite/likes with BP
– users can tag/mark directly on photo friends/any other tag name
– drag-sort photos
– slideshow from stream so that user do not have to leave stream
So in summary :
* Buddypics by moderlooper – Upload is not working (BP 2.1)
* RT media – favoriting is in jeopardy as well as no photo tagging by default
* http://plugins.bpdemos.com/bp-gallery – cannot make out as no demo
* Buddyboss themes inbuilt photo capacity is not clear how much it does, it has no albums
I will like to know from other users how are other users tackling their site members use and expectancy regarding photo sharing as this is one of the MOST important core component of majority of actual real life social nets as well as other social script based sites. Any solution that is working with WP 3.9 and BP 2.1.
Not happening for me too. On Buddyboss 3.1.7 – will report to the developers
View profile is working for me…checked with bp default and buddyboss theme
The pleasure is all mine..indeed an honor to be interacting with you.
Just did a fresh install of Buddypress and stil the same issue remains…
http://domain.com/username/settings/profile/ is blank with the BP default theme…
strangely the above page works with buddyboss theme..anyway to debug this?
Also i dont see “delete account” in the settings menu in the wp-admin bar in BP 2.0
thanks once again
Hi,
I’m very new to buddypress and I just made my first site using WordPress 3.8.1, Buddypress 1.9.2 and the Buddyboss theme.
No I would like to block posts on the activity stream when a new member signs up and when someone starts a topic on the forum (bbpress). The problem with the last is that users just comment on the topic in the activity stream but don’t answer on the forum topic itself.
I tried a plugin called BuddyPress Block Activity Stream Types but it always shows the error message:
Warning: Missing argument 2 for wpdb::prepare(), called in /home/user/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-block-activity-stream-types/admin/bp-activity-block-admin.php on line 6 and defined in /home/user/public_html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 992
What can I do to solve this or to block different activity types?
Thank you.
I’m trying the coding from BuddyBoss I’ll let you know if it helps
Dear Mr. Buddyboss…
Once again, thank you so much for the informative and specific reply. Two gigs of ram it shall be!
I wish I could attend your lecture…I really do. I’ve not been to a WordPress/Buddypress anything yet, and I am dying to go. Absolutely dying. I want to get far more involved with the WordPress/Buddypress company/community. We are both students (married, older etc) and are living on student loans…so for now, travel for us is limited to the bus 🙁
I have another question unrelated to capacity-should I start another thread, or may I ask it here?
cheers!

@buddyboss no inevitability there. Check out many responsive table solutions http://css-tricks.com/responsive-data-table-roundup/
@mercime C’mon! Even Chris Coyier (the first ever to try making a table responsive and author of the article you have linked) himself admits that there is no good solution to make tables responsive. The article essentially lists a bunch of hacks that people have tried in order to somehow make the table layout somewhat work on small screens. Nobody cares that much for tablets (yet) but mobile screens are becoming more important every day. And tables are not suitable for mobile devices (there might be task-specific hacks, but there is no general-purpose solution). We can’t stay in denial about this for very long.
thank you buddyboss! How much ram do you feel would be adequate.
I guess the other thing is, a CDN is going to be acting like a cache, and so, since a buddypress site can’t use cache any way (or it serves stale content) things like W3 etc should not be part of the install?
cheers
If you want a profile wall, take a look at
Profile Walls
I’d like to check my site is behaving correctly with notifications. In the WP admin bar the notification may change from a zero to 1 upon browser refresh. This is not consistent, sometimes it updates, other times it doesn’t. And that number will never climb above 1, no matter how many notifications are pending – you can see the actual number pending but only by hovering over it. And if you refresh the browser window enough times, the number will change back to zero, regardless of whether the notifications have been read or not.
Is this really the intended behaviour?
I’m using Buddyboss 3.1.5 and the notifications count on a user profile page does at least climb until all pending have been counted. Refresh the browser once more, and as above the number resets to zero, regardless of the read/unread status.
I see the same behaviour with Twenty Twelve so I’m guessing it’s not a theme issue, but the functionality seems odd to me? If that is how it works, I’ll turn it off since it would appear broken to standard users.

BP 1.9
Thanks,
Paul.
@buddyboss,
I’m having the same problem so I tried using your fix but something is wrong. I don’t have:
elseif ( bp_is_user_forums() ) : bp_get_template_part( 'members/single/forums' );
I have:
elseif ( bp_is_user_forums() ) : locate_template( array( 'members/single/forums.php' ), true );
Using WP 3.8.1 and Buddypress 1.9.2
@buddyboss indeed is the buddyboss. Thank you for the fix, my theme does not break down now.
Hi Buddyboss
Apologises for the delay in responding, everything is working fine now, removed the image file and used traditional links.
Many thanks for your help

OKAY! @buddyboss @mcpeanut @ So here is what I need. I now have a linux server! YAY ME! I’m in the process of redoing everything as I did not back it up.
I have buddypress installed the pages work. The issue I’m having now is:
BuddyPress is not showing in Appearance / Menus (as it did before) where I could select which pages I want only logged in folks to see.
I appreciate everyone’s else help.
Matthew
@backpackersunion, @buddyboss: I did as mentioned above, correct pages are assigned. Here is what happens now:
When at my site and I click on “register” it goes to the register page but nothing is there, only comments. If I were to add the other pages (Activity, Groups, Members, etc…) to the “main menu” where logged out users can view, I get the pages, but they are blank.
If I log in to the website, with a login i created for testing and click on the pages / links view-able to logged in folks, I get the same error I mentioned before the 404 error.
I also noticed after I login that user has access to WP and I think can edit the site.
grrr
Matthew
Hi @matthew.hout, Did you try Buddybosses Second idea? That’s what it sounds like the problem is. After you install BuddyPress you need to assign certain BuddyPress Pages to WordPress Pages (Activity Streams, Site Tracking, Members, Register and Active, are the pages depending on your Component Settings). To set these pages go to; Settings -> BuddyPress -> Pages. I don’t remember if BuddyPress creates the WordPress pages for you. You may have the create a blank page for each yourself. After you connect the WordPress pages to BuddyPress, I’d imagine it will start working.
Hi, @buddyboss I did as you mentioned. When I switched the Permalinks to default, tested the site – received the same error. I switched back to what was there and still nothing. 🙁 I want this site to work so bad! 🙂 🙁
@buddyboss – You’re a genius…

We were getting a double menu when engaging the Notifications tab. It was driving me nuts. By the way, if you are part of BuddyBoss reach out to me at brettbuchanandesign-at-gmail.com.
We really wanted to use your theme with rtMedia. I wanted to see if BuddyBoss was compatible yet. Or if rtMedia was compatible with you…
Hi Buddyboss
It was my original web designer who made the header image for me as an image map. Ok, if I remove the image map and just have a .jpg image for my logo on the left how do I get the Login and Register links on the right, and for them to work ok on desktop or tablet. The theme that I am using is Colorway responsive pro which resizes okay for everything else.
Many thanks
I am very new to BuddyPress, so I apologize if this is a naïve question…
I am having a hard time figuring out how I can show groups that are created by me without allowing the “User Groups” option. If I uncheck that box in Settings->->BuddyPress, then all the groups I have created disappear and are not visible. Without having “User Groups” selected, I can’t figure out how to create a group.
Is there a way for the administrator to create groups and have them show on the site without letting the public create their own groups?
Thanks,
Amy

Hi there-
Apparently if you are using the Sitewide Notices widget, you no longer get a notice at the top of the page. I tested this with multiple themes and the same issue occurred, so it appears to be a BuddyPress bug (or “feature” perhaps). If you remove the sitewide notifications widget from any sidebars, the notice will immediately appear at the top after you refresh the page. If I activate the notifications widget in the sidebar they disappear.
Please advise.
