    Adding a forum to a group when BuddyPress and bbPress are installed is part of the group creation process,so you – or anyone with Admin level capabilities – would make the choice either when the group is set up or later as part of a review process.

    bbPress works without buddypress so it is possible to add forums without installing BuddyPress.You would have to evaluate the features of each plugin that are essential or optional and then make a judgement about the combination.

    The easiest way to evaluate the features is to set up a test site and play with different combinations.

    Ok I just read modernloopers list of questions so I want to make this as clear as possible. First this problem is not a plugin problem. I disabled and deleted all and it didn’t fix the problem. I also tried a different theme and it didn’t fix the problem so it is not a theme problem. TJ at Buddyboss tried valiantly to figure out the problem to no avail.

    Here are the questions that modernlooper wanted answered.

    Please try to supply answers to the following questions.

    1. Which version of WordPress are you running? 3.81

    2. Did you install WordPress as a directory or subdomain install? directory

    3. If a directory install, is it in root or in a subdirectory? root

    4. Did you upgrade from a previous version of WordPress? If so, from which version? every one for the last year

    5. Was WordPress functioning properly before installing/upgrading BuddyPress (BP)? e.g. permalinks, creating a new post, commenting. Yes

    6. Which version of BP are you running? 1.92

    7. Did you upgraded from a previous version of BP? If so, from which version? Every one for the last year until 1.9 and then it broke. I just went back to my backup and waited. Upgraded to 1.92 and it is still broken. Went through all the normal troubleshooting processes until figuring out it was the notifications that is causing the error.

    8. Do you have any plugins other than BuddyPress installed and activated? If so, which ones?
    Ads Manager WP/BB
    Akismet
    BBpress
    BB Force Profile
    BuddyPress Tiny group chat
    BuddyPress Links
    Easy Album
    Facebook Friends Inviter
    IFlyChat
    Invite Anyone
    Social Login
    Wanguard

    9. Are you using the standard BuddyPress themes or customized themes? BuddyBoss

    10. Have you modified the core files in any way? No

    11. Do you have any custom functions in bp-custom.php? No, or at least none I am aware of that was put in there personally

    12. If running bbPress, which version? Or did your BuddyPress install come with a copy of bbPress built-in? 2.5.3

    13. Please provide a list of any errors in your server’s log files.

    [Fri Feb 28 14:41:05 2014] [warn] [client xxx] mod_fcgid: stderr: PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_notifications_toolbar_menu() in /var/www/vhosts/xxx/httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-members/bp-members-adminbar.php on line 148, referer: xxx/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bp-components

    14. Which company provides your hosting? Media Temple

    15. Is your server running Windows, or if Linux; Apache, nginx or something else? Linux and Apache

    On all of the Buddypress pages that display the RSS text (such as the Activity pages), is there a way to replace the RSS text with the RSS Icon?

    From other Buddypress sites I’ve viewed, it seems that everyone just has the text instead of the icon. So I’m wondering what file I have to edit to make the icon visible instead of the text.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    I use the latest versions of WP and BP.
    When user logs in on the tabs age shows as correct (born year 1990 it shows as 24) but when user logs out (also non-members) can view the same page same age data differently as 44 (the default age data of buddypress) instead of 24. Why do you think that happens? Any solutions?
    Thanx

    @Christine:

    From the description, that plugin creates a gallery per BuddyPress member. What I was looking for was a single gallery accessible to all members (i.e., a centralized gallery).

    Thanks for the help, much appreciated.

    I saw this one a while back and it seemed to work well whwn I tested it last. It might need some tweaking regarding the css though as I remember. BuddyPress Portfolio

    But it would mean each user had their own gallery.
    A page can be created I think showing all pictures.

    I saw this plugin on Code Canyon and think it might be useful: a content scheduling plugin for BuddyPress. Any one else seen this? BuddyPress Auto Posting

    Sorry about the confusing title. Our nonprofit veterans support organization need a tool on our website, jumpwings.org, to assist veterans looking for work to find suitable employers and conversely for employers to find vets to hire.

    My question is that before I get too vested in BuddyPress, does anyone out there think it is realistic for me to configure BuddyPress for this purpose?

    If so, then any hints on how to proceed would be appreciated. I am a software developer by trade and not daunted by complicated configuration or customization.

    On my BuddyPress site I have been successfully able to let my users send me queries about other users. I have accomplished this by using Contact Form 7 + Dynamic Text Extension. When I receive an email sent by contact form 7; I know which user (current_user) has sent me query about which user (displayed_user).

    The problems are –

    1 – I receive multiple emails when a user enquires about multiple users.
    2 – The users have no chance to change their mind and cancel their query / selection.

    What I want –

    Somehow gather the data collected by contact form 7 from all the selections done by the user, show it in one place and give the user a chance to cancel or add more selections before sending email.

    I will appreciate any help/directions on this. Kindly guide.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi, I am very impressed at BuddyPress. This is the best plugin to make/manage social web site.
    However, it also makes my site slow. I checked performance with P3 Plugin Profiler and BuddyPress is no.1 (or 2 sometimes) loading time plugin. Here is the result.

    My web site is already optimized with cache plugin and the other optimization plugins. WP Super Cache (This one is the faster one than Hyper Cache or W3 Total Cache for my site), jQuery lazy load plugin, WP-DBManager, WP-Optimize, WP Clean Up, WP Minify, WP Smush.it, and WordPress Twitter Bootstrap CSS. I do not want to add more plugin for performance as I think these are good enough.

    What I am curious is whether there are other way to decrease BuddyPress loading time. I researched about this issue a lot, but most of them are similar answers and was not so helpful. Only thing what I did not try is changing hosting provider. But it is big deal to move to the other one.

    Sorry, got sidetracked… Go me! LoL

    Anyway, the second part of my question was / is in reference too exactly what you just said… You’ve stated that ‘When a post of the types I have specified in my array is created’… My question is in reference to this statement. How are your users, on the Activity Feed, selecting to POST in the specified types? Dropdown? Radio button?

    I’m curious because PHP happens on the Server Side prior to the page being sent to the user, as far as I know, so I’m not sure how your Activity Feed is, after the fact, telling BuddyPress’s Activity Feed that the user has SELECTED to Post an Event or a Business or whatever.

    Would like to see an option to remove all calls to gravatar.com… Experimented with some gravatar caching plugins, but they do not play well with buddypress. Certainly there could be an option to use default, self-hosted images instead of auto-creating gravatar or other third party dependencies when user accounts are created, groups are created, etc.

    I see there has been some talk about media attachments with buddypress
    http://buddypress.org/support/topic/member-photo-galleries/ )

    We really need to have a solid option for media uploads / albums, the old bp-album is outdated and RtMedia although powerful, has too many conflicts. Is this something that is going to be figured out with the buddypress.org group, or are we going to be left at the mercy of third parties who have no interest in compatibility with others?

    info from my recent experiences…

    the RtMedia plugin is the best for allowing users to upload pictures and media, given that the other option (bp-media or bp-album or something like that) ceased updates long long ago.

    I give major applause to the team who develops this plugin, as they are constantly working on updates for it, and have found ways to monetize premium addon features, so hopefully they will continue to update and improve this important piece of the buddypress puzzle.

    The main problem with this plugin is that it completely fails with many themes. Currently the amount of themes that are well suited to use with buddypress is very small, and most of the recent buddypress compatible themes are bootstrap based or similar. Rtmedia will not display images on gallery pages with most of these modern themes.

    This may change one day, but currently I am assuming that the rtmedia plugin uses some of the same naming conventions and or files that bootsrap based themes also use – and conflicts arise.

    There are a few theme options that work with rtmedia, however those are very limited.

    Sadly the choice as of today for buddypress users is to have a small theme selection and no good way for users to upload photos, or use rtmedia as the best option for uploading media, but only have a few theme options that will work with buddypress and rtmedia.

    This is an issue for buddypress in general, and not particularly rtmedia’s fault that buddypress after years of being released still lacks the basic functionality that other social media scripts have offered for years right out of the box without all the problems.

    I use the latest versions of WP and BP.
    1-On profile page there are About me and Looking for tabs. And I see the same data in both tabs. Looking for has the same info as About me. Basically the name, age, height, weight etc all base info appears in looking for tab too.
    1st tab and 2nd tab both shows the same rows same data in normal regular view. basically 1st tab supposed to display only its group field values but it shows its and 2nd tab’s values too in total. And 2nd tab does the same it shows both tab values:

    http://site.com/members/username => NOT OK

    But when user logs in in edit mode they work ok, but in normal user view tabs messed up again:

    http://site.com/members/username/profile/edit/group/1 => OK

    2- Also when user logs in on the same tabs data shows age as correct (born year 1990 it shows as 24) but when user logs out (also non-members) can view the same page same age data differently as 44 (the default age data of buddypress) instead of 24. Why do you think? I think its the same reason as my above tabs data problem. Any ideas?
    TAB_2_URL_VIEW_MODE_page_NO_good
    TAB_1_URL_VIEW_MODE_page_NO_good
    TAB_2_URL_EDIT_MODE_page_Good
    TAB_1_URL_EDIT_MODE_page_Good
    THANX

    simple-man,
    I prefer to run the bbPress forum plugin as it integrates well with Buddypress.Using a forum plugin is a way to get your site members and visitors to engage in the discussion and encourage them to return to the site regularly.

    It really depends on the specific community,some prefer to comment on a blog or podcast,others prefer forums.All you can do is set up one forum and invite people to take part and then make a judgement about whether the level of interaction justifies a forum per group or just a forum for certain groups.

    @cyndimarie

    Did you determine how to do this? I’m trying to do something similar. I’ve figured out that I needed to create a bp-custom.php file, and I’ve used that to rearrange and rename the menu items in the buddypress profile page. But similar to you, I want to move the page title and avatar.

    If I figure this out before you respond, I’ll come back and let you know.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Is it a good idea to add forums to buddypress community (social network site)?
    I understand that BP has activity/gropus etc.

    Q1: What benefits or advantages do I have if I also add forums to buddypress?

    Q2: What is the best forum plugin that I should add?

    Thank you very much.

    I’m looking to make Buddypress content private. I’ve tired a range of plugins, but they seem to make the entire WordPress site private, or only offer options to exclude certain pages. I’m looking for a way to make everything on the site public, except for Buddypress community content. Can someone advise? Apologies if this is a duplicate – I’ve been searching through plenty of discussions but nothing has worked – all have made everything private like I mentioned.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I’m not sure if it’s useful to you but upgrading to the latest version of buddypress might help as there has been some attention to issues with usernames….

    See the following tickets: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5185 and https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4622

    in the above is an example of user name validation that, if adapted, might help stop the problem in future (without upgrading)

    I should have added,
    WP Version 3.8.1
    Buddypress version 1.8.1

    and … I cannot upgrade versions because my (stupid) developers added customizations by changing the core files. Argh. Another problem I have to sort out.

    Hi, I have a membership site running s2members (free version) and buddypress. I have 130 members and only one user has this problem where he gets “page not found” on all his buddypress pages.

    He can login and navigate around the site and see the forum, but cannot get to his activity/profile/messages etc.

    The only thing I can see that is different between this user and everyone else is he has a . in his username. I can see from searching this forum that has been a problem for other people. But the system lets you register with a .

    If that is indeed the problem, how do I prevent people from registering with a dot in the username?

    More importantly, how do I solve the problem for this particular user? He has already done a bunch of stuff and uploaded photos and things, plus he’s paid, so I don’t think he will be happy with starting over with a different username.

    Thanks for your help!

    Anne.
