BuddyPress.org

Did you run the ‘update wizard’ after the upgrade? https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/version-1-6/upgrading-to-1-6/

@benzine horizontal scroll is not a CSS issue alone. You need to complete step 3 of the BP compatibility process. When I click on member benz benz, there’s no horizontal scrollbar but the sidebar has dropped to below content area.

Open up your theme’s header.php file, copy all code, paste code in pastebin.com, click submit and post the generated URL here. Do the same for your theme’s index.php, page.php, sidebar.php and footer.php files. Let’s see.

== I have tried uninstalling buddypress, but it didn’t even show a registration page after that. ==

@swagcannon change to Twenty Eleven theme and deactivate all plugins. Then check your registration in basic WP install. If that doesn’t work, try to re-upload WP files manually – via FTP/cpanel/filemanager etc. and check if registration works. If that doesn’t work, please go to https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting for assistance

@formbi You add the code yourself https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/adding-dynamic-link-to-main-menu-item/

Or use https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-profile-menu/ if you’re using bp-default or child theme of the BP Default theme.

== I installed and activated BuddyPress after importing all the content from my previous CMS and none of the posts show up in the activity stream for the appropriate member. ==

Because those Posts/activities were done before BP was activated, BP was not able to “record” those posts in the activity stream. New posts from this time shall be recorded in the sitewide activity stream as well as respective members’ activity streams. As for the plugin updates, it’s up to the plugin developer.

The theme looks familiar. Looks like JS conflict. Have you tried deactivating plugins except BuddyPress to identify the culprit. If deactivating other plugins doesn’t resolve the issue, I suggest contacting theme author.

I answered in the other thread. Of course you could always start a new topic. Do provide a URI to the page with the troublesome button.

Gravity forms has this very useful feature and I can’t imagine this plugin without conditional fields, I am using it a lot in every single form, try to take a look how this plugin works, maybe you will find some solution how to implement it.

@lindayeats,

…definitely the Facebook platform should be added. Does this plugin does not allow a member to post out to the existing platforms? If there is a way to do this, I haven’t been able to find it. This is a key feature of Buddystream.

Asking @boonebgorges ?

== If a member is part of a public group, but is not a group moderator or a group admin, and starts a new forum topic (using bbPress 1, not bbPress 2)… can they sticky and edit their own topic? ==

@djpaul

a) Tested regular member – can only edit topic but cannot make it sticky.

b) Found a possible bug when I was logged in as Admin of site but not Group Admin nor Group Moderator
– Created and Posted the new topic = e.g. “Testing Paul Gibbs Issue” with url http://example.com/groups/the-godfather/forum/topic/testing-paul-gibbs-issue/
– Make the topic Sticky = click on Sticky
– The Post was reposted for some reason and made sticky, now two topics in forum and one is sticky with url http://example.com/groups/the-godfather/forum/topic/testing-paul-gibbs-issue-1/

Glad it worked out well for you. Marking this topic as resolved

@mahdiar we’ll address the comment button issue in that thread but I had assumed you fixed it per your post “I found the answer . I copy new files in bp-default theme to my own theme .”

This is far from ‘BASIC’, and also impractical from an interface perspective – for your specific requirement: 50 States each having say 50 cities, equates to 50 x 50 = 2,500 drop down controls you’d have to configure just on your 3rd layer.

It also doesn’t take into account handling this in a generic way, and other fields (apart from drop downs) that might equally well want conditional behaviour attached to them (checkboxes, value entered in number field, etc.).

Specialist form generation software might want to try and tackle this, but it’s not suitable for the base set of profile field functions offered by BuddyPress.

—

The best way to implement this for your Countries, States, Cities, etc. is to add the fields programmatically — if you search on Github, you’ll find a number of PHP arrays that have already been produced / maintained listing states and their corresponding cities.

You can iterate over these arrays in your code (a plugin, or functions.php, etc) and generate the fields programmatically using the xprofile functions provided in the BuddyPress API.

I just wanted to point out that this is the case (occasionally) with the buddypress setup here at buddypress.org as well as over at bbpress.org. Is it possible that this is a bug in the software and not only applicable to the OPs setup?
