BuddyPress.org

I’ll bet it’s something in your theme.
Try switching to the default BP theme.

Couple of things to look at:

Have you got anything unusual in your wp-config.php or bp-custom.php file, perhaps redefining the site URL or ‘root slug’.

Have you de-activated the components (groups, activity, etc.) in your BuddyPress settings?

The line that’s falling over is: if ( empty( $bp->{$id}->root_slug ) || $bp->{$id}->root_slug != $bp->current_component )

These are not theme issues, they are php errors in the page you need to look at your syntax and ensure it’s correct.

@rowefx, yes its one of my site am still working on it but i can give you the plugin free of charge.

@frank13 — unfortunately those standard forum features aren’t available on this site, so it’s very difficult to track anything, and questions often get re-asked, and re-answered.

Not sure why the site hasn’t been updated to use e.g. the bbPress plugin @johnjamesjacoby

It’s sounds you need a developer to work on your general site build, rather than having specific BuddyPress questions.

You can hire a developer by posting here: http://jobs.wordpress.net
You can also try posting on the jobs board on this site: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/

turn off AJAX based submission on your gravity form — does that fix the problem?

Technically, it’s the other way around: bbPress 2.1 supports BuddyPress for Group Forums (but **only** if you deactivate the Group Forums component).

You can use the bbPress 1.1 convertor that comes with bbPress 2 (it’s under the Tools menu) to move your content from old bbPress to new bbPress.

If the forum doesn’t appear in the BuddyPress group, it’s probably best to feed this back to the bbPress team on the bbpress.org forums.

I tried Buddypress User Account Type Lite plug in. But it doesnt work either. Nothing is capable of overwriting Buddypress default user capabilities. First I left Elgg because of a stupid “Privacy Access Option” built into it, now I think history is taking a fresh turn. Both scripts are useless for content driven social networks or “should be well moderated sites”

No. But reality one should give way to another.

Hi @Hugo, you can check the plugin please, i hav’nt time to add it to wordpress repo.

and you Mr @newpress, don’t throw accusations around like that .

@newpress Please don’t throw accusations around like that. If there is a problem with the plugin please just state so and request in the thread that the link be removed which is what I’ll do for the moment.

And also a lesson learnt perhaps? Do not just download php scripts or any scripts from unknown and untrusted sources and let them lose on your machine or worse you hosting account where they may also compromise far more than just your site – there’s a level of responsibility that has to be taken on the net.

Your solution: copying the whole BuddyPress function and changing one line is not the best way to do this.

As I suggested earlier — that BuddyPress function has a filter for the post types it works with: bp_blogs_record_post_post_types

All you need to do is register a filter that adds your custom post types to the array of post types.

I resolved it long ago

Alternatively you can go to bbpress->setting-> change forum slug from forums to anything else. I think it works though didnt try it myself

I’m also having this same issue.

On a fresh install, (http://dsjprojects.com/buddypress) post comments are indeed logged into the activity stream.

But on my main sites, (http://anawimcc.org, http://signsofsafetyusa.com/activity/) post comments aren’t logged in the activity stream. Not even after reverting to Default theme and disabling all plugins, and even updating to the most recent BuddyPress. Not sure what it could be…

I don’t know what @r-a-y means by “setting my activity stream filter”. I’ve looked around a bit and not found a whole lot on this specific issue; This Thread seems to have a bit of good material but I think I’m in over my head a bit.

Any help? Or, anyone having the same problem?

Thanks much,

Yes, you have the BuddyPress function to use to get the URL, and the rest (image links) is basic PHP / HTML and / or CSS.

If you are looking to modify your theme, and don’t have a grounding in PHP / HTML / CSS, it would make sense to do a primer in these first.
