Sometimes the email gets stuck in spam or junk filters.
To get email working, some web hosts require an extra wordpress plugin, such as:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/configure-smtp/
wp-mail-smtp and configure-smtp can send a test email which often provides useful debug information!
This is a frequently discussed issue here and people have found all three different plugins useful – there may be others.
Please check your host’s knowledge base or faq for further information….
@boonebgorges I’ve tried and it worked but I didn’t have in mind that mentions also use html to link to users, so using strip_tags is also removing that ``.
I’d like to allow @mentions and links but not the explicit use of ``. Would that be possible ?
Thanks again !
Okay Sorry Guys Just Solved LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
Thanks for all of the help, mercime. I got it pretty much all sorted out thanks to your awesome assistance! 
One more thing… I added those tweaks to the end of my style.css for the boulevard theme, but did not see any difference take effect. 
All I’m supposed to do is copy and paste the code onto the very end of my style.css, right?
Thanks again,

BuddyPress: 1.5.4
WordPress: 3.3.1
@tiagobeloto – this seems to be getting fixed in 1.6 (see link below) You’d be better off waiting for that release to hit before implementing this.
However, if you need a quick fix until then @r-a-y provided some code near the beginning of the discussion that might help…

@mercime Yes we enabled forums for each group in the original setup and have re-checked these are correct now. Still no joy!
@mercime – I did look at the changeset/5628 of 3 files bp-core-adminbar.php, admin-bar.php and admin-bar.dev.css but I do have the same codes as 3 files. There is nothing I could change. I have the version 1.5.4. Is there a fix?
You shouldn’t have to create any subpage at all.
If you’re using a WordPress theme which doesn’t include BuddyPress templates, you need to install and activate BP Template Pack plugin and go through the BP Compatibility process which will transfer all the required templates, CSS and JS needed to your active WP theme folder.
Not quite, but thanks Marking this as resolved then.
Missed it previously.,I see it now. BP components must be parent page levels in “Page Attributes” at this time. If you want to “show” that Members and Group Pages are under Forums, the use custom menu and position the Members and Group Pages under Forums
This is a known issue and is fixed in trunk, ready for BP 1.6. If you’d like to fix this in your current installation, check this out https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5628
@modemlooper, will it be saving it and posting as a ‘activity type’ and not simply fetching the feed? Could you please explain how you plan on doing it as I have a similar idea for members?
Whilst I have you attention – can I use your share it plugin and incoperate it into a upcoming social plugin I will be releasing?
I checked my permalinks, and they were set on Post Name, rather than default. So I don’t know why none of the buddypress pages are working…
== A bunch of the buddypress pages are “Page Not Found”… ==
Re-run Settings > Permalinks and choose permalink other than default.
You add the style modifications at the bottom of your boulevard theme’s stylesheet
Thanks. It works fine now.
A bunch of the buddypress pages are “Page Not Found”… I don’t know how that would have happened. I’ve tried uninstalling the buddypress plugin and reinstalling it, but it does the same thing. How do I completely uninstall buddypress and its files so that I can start over and have all of the buddypress-associated pages work?
Thanks!

@boonebgorges thank you very much ! I’ll try this 
@boonebgorges thanks for replying
Activity update’s comment boxes.
I’m using Huddle (http://themeforest.net/item/huddle-wordpress-buddypress-community-theme/835549) but I’ve asked on the forums and the answer was:
“This was the default functionality from BuddyPress original theme, and we kept this.
We don’t plan to do this soon, but if this functionality will be added we will announce this on forum”
Note- if you run into the above issue, you have to systematically deactivate the different components, then just reactivate the core BuddyPress. You will then have access to the components view where you can toggle these settings back, and then reactivate the components.
WP/BP versions? What theme are you using and what plugins have you installed?
Have you tried basic troubleshooting by changing to bp-default theme and deactivating all plugins except BuddyPress?
