BuddyPress.org

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.

Took a look at your site. It looks nice. But I do see that all the BP pages are not outputting any content. It’s all blank. Even the “By” line is empty, where I assume it would show the page author.

When you are in your buddypress.php file is it including another inner template file to display content? If so, have you tried deleting all of that and just putting in <?php the_content();?> in the loop of buddypress.php? I’m wondering if this theme has some fancy default content loop that is filtering out BP stuff.

@mercime thanks for posting the link. Good stuff. My suggestion is based on the assumption that most WP themes do not have these solutions in them as most sites are not using tables. BuddyPress is feeding its content into theoretically any WP theme and most themes are (or will be) responsive and most web traffic is (or will be) mobile. So if BP is feeding in content that is not going to work for a large percent of users it seems like something worth at least considering to change, even if there are some tradeoffs.

Anyways, I’m sorry as I didn’t mean to hijack this thread with these table discussions. We’re a bit off topic now 🙂

BuddyPress has no deactivation script so you don’t accidentally delete your content

As the header on that page says that component has been depreciated any theme should be basically compatible with buddypress “out of the box” more info can be found here:

Theme Compatibility & Template Files

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.

Use this hook: do_action( ‘bp_activity_entry_content’ );

in the template: buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\activity\entry.php

And write a function to embed the video.

Ciao! The current version of BuddyPress only has 3 tabs when you click on the group:
Visit|Edit|Delete.
No Admin.
Anywhere else I can look.

Another idea. My understanding is that this can be done through child-themes, but seems kind of taxing for what I would think should be a standard feature.

There should be a means to configure the Activity Stream in the Buddypress settings. I don’t necessarily think that all my users should see everytime someone becomes a friend with someone else. This would be a bonus IMO.

I have run into an issue where I converted a vBulletin forum over to bbpress/buddypress combination.

I really do not quite understand why, but over the course of the past week since the migration. Me and my users have been getting non-stop emails 50-100 a day with @mentions. The longer a user has been involved in the community, the worse it got. I started out by completely disabling emails from WordPress, then I found r-a-y’s no mention plug-in. I’m hoping that does the trick.

Either way, there should be a way to disable certain notifications or messages transmitted from Buddypress.

Kudos to all the devs that work on this project! Thank you.

you should be okie to reupload the buddypress directory into wp-content/plugins without reinstalling but if it will make you feel better having a flawless installation for peace of mind go right ahead.

it did sound like an .htaccess problem.

@houndlounge great to see you managed to find a solution but, just be aware with that particular solution, if you upgrade BuddyPress your changes will be lost

Now fixed in trunk for BP 2.0. Thanks for the report and the fix, @glyndavidson
