Not seen that issue yet. In the meantime, some workarounds

To resolve your specific issue however, more info is needed. https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/when-asking-for-support/

@juanmaguerrero cool Marking this as resolved.

In the first instance you really should try and get support and help from the themes own support forums http://aquoid.com/forum/

Hi All,

I think I found the solution and solved this problem. It was BP bug maybe?
It actually similar what @tagtomat mention above.

The steps are quite simple:
1. Go to a group page as Admin
2. Go to group Admin’s link
3. Then “Settings” link
4. Just click “Save Changes” button while the “Enable discussion forum” should be checked.

It seems that previous checked status on “Enable discussion forum” field doesn’t reflect to database or configuration. Hence we should “commit” this setting to confirm and activate the discussion forum feature. I have tested this for about our 40++ new forum setting and it works! Hope it helps!

Thanks!

@pgrinnell different strokes for different themes. Your theme requires changing 16 BP template files for Step 3 of the compatibility process, not adding only 2 files.

If you still want to proceed, then open up your theme’s header.php, copy all, paste all at pastebin.com, click submit, and post the generated pastebin.com URI here. Do the same with your theme’s page.php, index.php, sidebar.php and footer.php

== Doest it needs Multisite feature enabled? ==

@juanmaguerrero BP Groupblog requires multisite.
If you want to simulate group blog in single WP installation, use http://buddydev.com/plugins/blog-categories-for-groups/ with http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-simple-front-end-post/ for front end posting.

== The navigation menu shows vertical and on my preview it show horizontal. ==
Navigation menu on Appearance > Menu vs. Main Menu on front end? Not sure what you mean, please clarify.

If it’s a bug, or it takes effort, you won’t get an answer for a very long time if ever.

The raw solution:
Go to bp-friends/bp-friends-template.php and comment the whole case “is_friend” between line 329 and 344.

The better solution:
rewrite the function bp_get_add_friend_button who contains the switch given in the above solution and put it in your child theme’s function file.

Untested, but try this:

`
add_action (‘xprofile_updated_profile’, ‘profile_change_notify’);
function profile_change_notify ($id, $posted_field_ids, $errors) {
$global $wpdb;

if( $errors )
return;

$names = ”;

foreach( (array)$posted_field_ids as $field_id ) {
$sql = ” SELECT name FROM wp_bp_xprofile_fields WHERE id = ‘$field_id’ “;
$name = $wpdb->get_var( $sql );
if( $name == ‘Country’ || $name == ‘City’ )
$names .= ‘ ‘ . $name;

}

if( $names != ” ) {
$user = new WP_User ($id);
wp_mail (‘myname@mydomain.com’, ‘Subject ( ‘ . $user->user_login . ‘ just updated the Profile )’, $names);
}
}
`

Blimey. I’d like to reassure that there’s no conspiracy theory (but I would say that, right?), nor is the BuddyPress.org team ignoring posts on these forums. We are all volunteers, and we only have so much time that we can contribute. This thread is not heading in a constructive direction so I am going to close it.

Mercime’s answer above was good as any. It takes a lot of effort from lots of people to try to prevent spam. This thread talks about user registration spam and activity spam. In our next version of BuddyPress, 1.6, Akismet is integrated into Activity Stream. We have this running on testbp.org and it seems to be doing a decent job at helping.

See Registration -> BuddyPress isn’t sending out emails (eg. activation emails, email notifications) https://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/frequently-asked-questions/

BuddyPress Links plugin has not been updated for BP 1.5. To gain access to your wp-admin, you have to disable BuddyPress Links in wp-content/plugins/buddypress-links by renaming the folder to e.g. wp-content/plugins/buddpress-links-xxx

99% of the time, each theme has a unique resolution for Step 3 of the BP Compatibility process. So no, the different codes we posted in https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/ for different WP themes.

Initial scan shows that for your theme, you only need to create two files to make the layout compatible.

sp12, you should be using the Sufusion BuddyPress Pack plugin with the Suffusion theme rather than the BP Template Pack https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/suffusion-buddypress-pack/
