@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.

@buddyboss any idea how to make the crop preview image fluid?

With BuddyBoss you can upload photos to your BP profile on a phone. Avatar uploads work too, but the native avatar cropper in BP could still use some work on mobile as it’s too big for some screens.

@_dorsvenabili when adding custom functions to functions.php it might be a good idea to add a prefix to all of your function names. As you can see buddyboss has done it with buddyboss_childtheme_.

You could have used dorsvenabili_core_get_notifications_for_user or my_core_get_notifications_for_user

Saves conflicts from happening 🙂

Same here, although I don’t get a 404 but a “no pending friendship” message – disabling Extended Profiles shows me the list. Am I doing something wrong? I’m using BuddyBoss + a child theme, FWIW.

I’m building a site in BuddyBoss 3.0, their new responsive layout, and it’s great, however, I’ve got a couple of pesky glitches, and I landed here looking for the page talking about approve WPML themes.
Good luck!

@buddhatunes not familiar with how Buddyboss is wired. But it should follow template hierarchy supported of BP https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/template-hierarchy/

The BuddyBoss theme is made specifically to be super super mobile, with a stylesheet just for BuddyPress and one just for bbPress, making all of that content responsive.

Hey guys! I’m the owner of BuddyBoss and just reading though these comments. We have a mobile version coming out August 15th. You can see the demo here: http://www.buddyboss.com/demo/

@flyveren Thanks for the compliments 🙂 We work hard to keep everything up to date. This new version is built around BuddyPress 1.7 / 1.8, the way BP now allows any WordPress theme to work with it. We rebuilt it as a standard WordPress theme with our custom features only used when BuddyPress is activated.
