It shows up in both in the Profile page and the create group page, there is the title with the link and then sometime the title without the link.
@wordbuddypress You’re correct in discerning that the Create A Group button is not supposed to show in your Profile pages or anywhere else except the Group Directory page. Change to Twenty Twelve theme and check if issue is resolved. If it is, then something in your coding of your theme’s page.php is awry. You might want to check out the page.php file of Twenty Twelve to help you find some resolution.
Thanks for the help @mercime. I’m making progress. I did as you instructed and placed the buddypress.php and bbpress.php files in the root of my theme directory. Previously, I had the customized buddypress.php file in my theme’s buddypress directory. Now, the sidebar doesn’t display on the groups or forums pages, but the main content is still not expanding to full width, the way it does on the Calendar page http://sndhome.org/calendar/ (which is associated with the All-in-One Calendar plugin).
I can tell that this theme accomplishes the full-width display by swapping CSS settings. But even after spending some time digging through the theme’s files, I haven’t been able to locate the code that controls this behavior. I can just see that it works for pages that aren’t associated with BuddyPress or bbPress. I would just change the theme’s default template, except the template author doesn’t provide a default option that enables the full-width display. 🙁
I have posed the question to the template developer as well. Still awaiting a response there. I really appreciate your help. I’m learning a lot today! 🙂
It shows up in both in the Profile page and the create group page, there is the title with the link and then sometime the title without the link. I am using my own theme, I guess thats also the reason for this problem. What could I change in my theme to remove this? Or which file do I have to edit?
@shanebp Thank you for your patience, ‘expert developer’ 😀
@wordbuddypress from what BP version did you upgrade? What theme are you using?
RE: screenshot of a title
That is the “Create a Group” button that shows up beside the page title of the Groups Directory page, not exactly about the username you mentioned earlier. Could you clarify what you need to address in your post above?
Since the BuddyPress update (1.7.2) the title of BuddyPress pages show the link of the page.
For Example the User profile doesn’t show “username” instead it shows “username.
Screenshot of a title:
Thanks for the update, mercime.
Things definitely are not yet ‘back to normal’ but hopefully will be soon.
I’m using WordPress 3.5.1 and Headway 3.4.11 with a child theme.
Everything was working fine until I started to create templates in Headway to reuse for my page.
Nothing from Buddypress shows up now. The rest of the site is ok, though. I turned off all plugins and sill nothing. I deleted the templates and still nothing. I recreated the pages and still nothing.
I uninstalled Buddypress and I get these warnings:
Warning: ksort() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /mysite.com/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-template-loader.php on line 167

@shirleyl open up your theme’s full-width page template and save as buddypress.php and upload this file to your theme folder in server wp-content/themes/yourthemename/
Do the same for bbPress, create a new file bbpress.php from full-width theme template and upload same to theme folder in server.
Know that the full-width with apply to all BP and bbPress templates. If you want different layouts for each BP component, read this https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/theme-development/a-quick-look-at-1-7-theme-compatibility/
So, I just installed everything again in my host and the error continues. New database, and only wordpress + buddypress, latest version of both.
Any help?
Hello, my name is Joe and I’d like some help from somebody experienced. I installed the Buddypress and really like it but I have two (small) unsolved problems. The “close” link at the end of the notification messages does not work. So the only way to close the message is to do page refresh. Firebug gives an error every time I’m trying to close the message by using the “close” link. But since I’m not an expert I can not figure out what’s wrong. The second problem has to do with the avatar crop tool. I can upload the image but there is no way to select the area I want to crop. There is only a “Crop Image” button. I’m getting an error that says:
TypeError: jQuery(…).Jcrop is not a function
Could you please help me to solve these problems?

I’m developing a new site using WP 3.5.1, BP 1.7.2 and the free version of the Catch Box theme: http://sndhome.org
The theme comes with several page template alternatives. My default is to have the content on the left with sidebar on the right, but I’m trying to use a Full Width Disable Sidebar Template option on some pages. It seems to work fine on some pages, for example:
http://sndhome.org/calendar/ but it doesn’t work on my BuddyPress or bbPress pages, for example: http://sndhome.org/groups/ and http://sndhome.org/forums/
It appears that whatever BuddyPress and bbPress code is controlling the page layout doesn’t recognize the non-default page template option I’ve set for specific pages. Any advice on how to tweak the code so that it would recognize this? I’m new to BuddyPress and bbPress, so any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
@caspergrimaldi go to admin dashboard menu Users > Profile Fields
Click on Edit Group Link
change “Base” name to what you want
https://codex.buddypress.org/user/buddypress-components-and-features/extended-profiles/
Could have been any (or all) of the following plugins:
BP Group Documents (ancient, don’t think I can find it online again)
BP Unread Posts https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-unread-posts/ (also obsolete)
U BuddyPress Forum Attachment http://urlless.com/u-buddypress-forum-attachment/
I haven’t reactivated any of these 3 and am about to delete them.
It appears a case of too eager to upgrade without properly checking existing potential conflicts. Too much haste and not enough care in my excitement about 1.7 – my bad. Thanks for your support Paul.
Does anyone know of a simple “listings” plugin i can use as a classifieds ads system, that is combatible with buddypress?
I only want to be able to show a title, description, price. And it to be linked to the buddypress user or group? No payment methods or anything fancy. Just a list.
Im a php programmer but have no experience or never have created a wordpress plugin, never mind on that works with buddypress so not sure how much work is involved?
Just cant belive there isnt one? There was one that is still availble but unfortunatly people report it doesnt work after BP1.2 and that was buddypress-classifieds.
Any help would be appriciated.

Hi,
So, i have set up a “file” upload as part of buddypress profile. This is for users to upload their CVs.
Everything is working fine. I’d like to make an addition though.
At the moment the file is only downloadable but I’d like the file to be displayed also.
There is this grate google viewer iframe option, which I managed to call and make work in the “edit” section of the profile.
However, in the profile loop so it is displayed on the profile section, I am struggling. The same code doesn’t work. It keeps telling me it can’t find the URL. So could anyone tell me how I could call for the dynamic URL please?
This is the code I used on edit section and works:
<iframe src=”http://docs.google.com/gview?url=<?php echo $uploads[‘baseurl’] . bp_get_the_profile_field_edit_value(); ?>&embedded=true” style=”width:600px; height:250px;” frameborder=”0″></iframe><br />
the part in italic is where I think the problem is.
Here is a profile link: http://adauk.org/members/caspergrimaldi/
[ check re ‘0 and 0’ re replies and voices ]
Anyone else notice that the ‘community groups’ have disappeared on this site?
Or that ‘mentions’ don’t appear on your profile activity ?
Perhaps groups have been moved?
Perhaps ‘mentions’ have been changed to… ?
Are these symptoms of ‘server issues’ ?
@patricksaad,
apologize if i mentionned your blog, but it was the only place i found speaking about this problem.
FYI, “throttling” is used in BP 1.7.2, but a minima. Should be extanded much more. I guess it’s preferably you open an ehancement ticket on the Trac.
And thank you for sharing your code. 😉

Although Yoast’s WordPress SEO works perfectly with WordPress, it isn’t currently compatible with BuddyPress. I suggest you try a plugin such as SeoPress. There are some problems with that plugin (lacking 404 page support, registration page title buggy, incompatible Friends component etc) but on the whole it is about the best option on the market at the moment.
There is a display:none; in the inline styling. Have you figured out how to resolve the issue? I am having the same issue.
I created a new instance on local Xampp. Systematically, I disabled plugins and tested functionality. I was able to make it work with all my plugins activated, including Wishlist, but only with the Buddypress Default Theme activated.
That’s a “nice” discovery except for the fact that weeks have gone into the development of the custom theme on the Genesis framework. I chose that framework because of the abundance of experience that I have with it. I admire all the work that has gone into creating as elegant a plugin as Buddypress but it should not be imperative to do development on the Buddypress theme base. Genesis is pretty popular…
The requests.php template looks to be is not loaded with code having only 60 lines or so. This section of code in the BP Compatibility Pack seems to be what handles the actual list of friend requests:
<div class="action">
<a class="button accept" href="<?php bp_friend_accept_request_link(); ?>"><?php _e( 'Accept', 'buddypress' ); ?></a>
<a class="button reject" href="<?php bp_friend_reject_request_link(); ?>"><?php _e( 'Reject', 'buddypress' ); ?></a>
<?php do_action( 'bp_friend_requests_item_action' ); ?>
</div>
The first two functions are links. I’m thinking it has to do with the action performed and I don’t know where to find that code. Is this something *we* should be looking at?
