anyone else having a problem with the new buddypress update, public profile links are showing up as html code

Remove buddypress from plugin folder

Hey @modemlooper,

When do you think you’ll be done with the new version of buddypress mobile? which features are you adding?

Have you deactivated all other BuddyPress plugins and custom code snippets? If so, try adding this code snippet to your wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:

`remove_action( ‘bp_template_redirect’, ‘bp_redirect_canonical’, 2 );`

This will remove the canonical redirect hook that might be causing you some issues.

You guys might want to look at this plugin for inspiration:

Hi,

What happened after the activation procedure? Blank screen?

Do you have access to your server’s error log? If so, what does it state in there? If not, navigate to your /wp-content/plugins directory and rename the “buddypress” to something else. Next, try accessing wp-admin again.

I also wanted to limit my user creating groups in buddypress plugin. Is their a way to make this happen?? What should I do?

I would make a wizard, that is, splitting a long form in a few more user-friendly steps. I would create the custom fields you need and make them required in the registration, and then add some javascript to show / hide the fields as the user goes through the steps… that way you will not need to touch the backend.

There is another thread where @brajesh from buddydev have succesfully resolved this multiple registration form , but I already don’t remember where to find it, unfortunately searching on this forum have never worked so try to take a look at brajesh’s site http://www.buddydev.com , or try to search further here via google SEARCH with keywords “brajesh buddypress registration form” etc , I know that the code was very long and he posted it publicly at pastedin.com

I’m wondering about this as well,,

What about https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-mobile/ – it all depends on why you want an ‘app’ but that may be a good first stop solution?

@sudeepacharya current BP 1.6.1 is *not* compatible with WP 3.2.1. You should be upgrading your WP to 3.4.1 version. However, if you cannot do so at this time, you’d need to use BuddyPress version 1.5.1

@dalagonash cool. glad you got Step 3 on your own

I would suggest copying some style modifications for Twenty Ten theme posted at https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/ to remove the bullets in your unordered lists as well as bring in the width of the item navigation and the like. Adjust to taste.

All tagged versions in the SVN repository still exist and can always be downloaded.
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags – not sure where the zip files are.
Not sure though why there would be a difference between 1.5.7 and 1.6 you may want to pass that by the theme authors.

You need to use / choose your theme not select BP out of the box

After you activate the plugin, check under ‘Dashboard’ for a ‘BuddyPress’ setup tab. Untill I did that I was getting the ‘Insufficent permission…’ message

So per the last reply to this thread, if my template, wootheme “Delicious Magazine” is not listed on the codex template doc, then would that be the reason why when I installed buddypress to my website, it does not seem to work? Everything appears to have installed correctly, only I cannot find BP other than on my dashboard. There does not even seem to be a place where people can sign up on my website. I am so confused…

I think I may have the same problem? I installed the buddy pack, but nothing seems to work….I am actually having difficulty finding it. No idea where people can register on my website. I have the Woo Themes “Delicious Magazine” template. Wondering since I did not see it listed on your codex page, BuddyPress may not be compatible with my website? Any form of help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

All CSS changes (and others) must be done from within your child theme. That’s the reason of the child theme 😉
If you do that in bp-default, they gone at the buddypress next update

I’m not sure, but is this what you mean: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/

It sounds like you have both bbPress installed (maybe as a WP plugin?) as well as buddyPress Discussion Forums enabled (which are a watered-down version of bbPress). Any insight on your ‘custom install’ would be quite helpful.
