We are aware of the issue. Read on for more info https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4571
@ubernaut haven’t tried it yet. Let us know if it works out all right 
Use WordPress a page template and hard code a BuddyPress group loop in the page template. Create a WordPress page in the admin. You do the same thing when you created those pages when you install BuddyPress. BuddyPress just overrides the page that gets loaded with it’s own template which is why you don’t have to create the page template yourself.
Such an app would be very nice indeed.
are you sure that status theme is compatibale with current version of buddypress?
Hi,
you have a big chance: i spoked to iMath, and he did it !
A nightly built fresh baked plugin to alllow you to have navatar suggestions list !
From now on the WP plugin repository
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-avatar-suggestions/
Have fun !
PS: @djpaul, idea becames reality
Looked into this further — I don’t want buddypress on all sites, I just want the links on the subsites to connect with their buddypress page. Just as buddypress does under SITES tab, the links point to the owners subsites — I just need that, but in reverse.
Did you move your bb-config.php across? If the database user/password changed, did you update those details in the bb-config.php?
Did the absolute path of the bb-config.php change? If so, you’ll need to go into wp-admin > Settings > BuddyPress > Forums, and “reinstall”.
This is where searching / reading through docs first is a good idea:
In the BP codex there’s this page which may serve what you’re after:
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/bp_enable_multiblog/
to @amitsingh1984: well whichever file, your menu’s code is located in then add this code at before the menu’s script: <?php if (is_user_logged_in()) 
> and make sure at the end of the script for the navigation you would include this would take that whole chunk of script for your navigation and shows if the user is logged in or you might also use Sara Goodings plugin “if-menu” but I would suggest the code since it takes less time for your site to load.
I’m not clear quite what you want but the end of the following post is about creating different logged in and out menus ( with a child of bp-default theme ) …
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/how-do-i-make-buddypress-1-6-a-private-community/#post-136021.
Can anyone help me please????? This is getting frustrating, Everything in the profile such as activity feed, etc isn’t appearing properly in my right column. It also make my main navigation go from left to right to right to left. Why is this so complicated to create a new website using buddypress…
Im surprised the buddypress team did not come with a permanent solution about this major problem ….
What major problem and why or how could BP sort it if – no offence to BP – more mature apps can’t! If a numpty idiot is paid to post pointless irritating spam on as many sites as they can in day then what can you do other than as suggested manually approve, what would you wish to do? Or are we talking about some other issue?
Hi @mercime, I tried that code but for some reason its not moving.
Below is my child css can you give me a hint if I have made a mistake somewhere?
Thank you for your time.

Anything can be acomplished given the skills. This would require custom code.
Ok, I knew this is not a good option. 
This is not a buddypress only problem, it’s global. Even the best platforms around the world suffers from spammers!
I just forgot to say that, to enable auto activation of users, this plugin is needed: “BP Disable Activation” (just for others who might like that)
Hm, I guess I should’ve posted this in How-to and troubleshooting section. So If you think this is where it should be can i ask someone to move the topic? (there should be at least a Delete post feature)
Thanks in advance.
@themightymo I have tried that plugin with out any results. I helps for human but not for spambots that register everyday ..
@hnla thanks for your reply but Im not asking so we can solve Internets biggest problem, Im asking about a specific problem regarding buddypress.
@aminima Thanks for your suggestion, but thats not an option. Its an active community and users want to participate when they register. Approving manually it is not an option, unfortunately 
Im surprised the buddypress team did not come with a permanent solution about this major problem ….
Ok, I’ll disable caching and re-install.
I figured out the issue, in my child them i need to define `add_theme_support( ‘buddypress’ );` and voila the BP Compatibility appear
First, make sure that BuddyPress plugin is activated. Second, you cannot use it on the bp-default theme. If BP is activated, go to wp-admin dashboard menu Appearance > BP Compatibility.
