BuddyPress.org

First time I’ve heard about this. What theme are you using?

Edit – you should contact theme author of Dynamix theme. Looks like the author incorporated BP into the theme per demo http://dynamix-buddypress.creativeworkz.co.uk/ could be some conflict

== I get the normal wordpress user profile editable fields? ==

If you mean the first and last names in wp-admin user settings, then you have to create a script to call those as BP xprofile fields has its own settings. Otherwise, you can create First Name field and Last Name field in User > Profiles panel https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-buddypress-components/#users-profile-fields

Do you have any ‘privacy’ plugins or something like a redirect_to_forum() function in your bp-custom.php file such as in https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/too-many-redirects-in-chrome-404-in-ff-when-trying-to-accees-group-ater-update/ ?

If so try disabling it / them as they may need updating / replacing *

@djpaul – Unfortunately, that’s the only way it works. It doesn’t work in bp-custom at all.

The error tells you WordPress can’t find those files. Did you delete them from your plugins directory?

Short of making a new widget which inherits the built in widget, and overriding the method, no

Are you using multisite? If so, go to the Network Admin.

The option is in Settings > BuddyPress > “Settings” tab, and it’s under “Main Settings” at the top.
p.s. there’s no built in way of switching back to the “old” toolbar.

I followed 2 steps to successfully display usernames in the BP members directory & other pages instead of default Display names:

1st step was to install the BP Usernames only plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-usernames-only/
This replaced display names across the site by usernames however, when I used the search box on the members directory to search a member, it returned results with members display names again and not usernames. To resolve this, I additionally followed step 2 explained here: http://customwebdesignseo.com/activity/p/3002/

Never, ever, ever edit any files that come with BuddyPress. That’s terrible advice.

Yes. You can install and activate BP Template Pack plugin.

== I have done this exepct for the last part in section D. I can not see where the text has been added for the css on style.css for risen ==

@twc01 The style mods are on that page. It starts with:
`/ > BuddyPress Component Finishing Styles

== Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<' in /home/inspire/public_html/wp-content/themes/risen/members/index.php on line 10 ==

What’s on line 10?

As far as I know it works with the latest BuddyPress. Alternatively make your theme a child of BP Default and create a theme that way.

Are you using this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-template-pack/?

I would bet that he meant buddypress.org plugin page , he sees only one plugin , I had the same problem with my Custom POST TYPE page , I saw only first POST , I think that it was related to permalink problems after update , when I have changed permalinks to default and immediately after to custom it worked again.

Same problem here. No one is able to complete the registration process successfully.

Using the last versions of both, WordPress and Buddypress.
