BuddyPress.org

BuddyPress.org doesn’t support avatar uploads. We ought to really remove that option.

Use testbp.org to see an out-of-the-box BuddyPress site.

What theme are you using? Have you done basic troubleshooting by changing to bp-default theme and deactivating all plugins except BuddyPress?

No need to insert block/folder inside the duotive3 theme. That’s what the BP Template Pack is for.

What I see in your second screenshot is that the UL list styles are showing and the layout is not being contained within the div. The style modifications I linked to should be placed at the bottom of other styles in your stylesheet.

For example, the UL list styles should be preceded by UL no list styles because of the following BP Twenty Ten style modifications I linked to above:
`div#item-header ul {
list-style-type: none;
}

ul.item-list {
list-style-type: none;
margin-left: 0;
}

ul#members-list,
ul#groups-list {
list-style-type: none;
margin-left: 0;
}`

Since your site is not live, I can’t troubleshoot what’s going on directly. Use Firebug, a Firefox add-on, to see what’s overriding the modifications you’ve made or us Google Chrome and right click to Inspect Element.

dont look lke a buddypress driven site! specialy he profile fields!

To elaborate on what @DJPaul said – BP uses WP’s logout, which is handled by wp-login.php. In particular, a request is sent to wp-login.php?action=logout, with a redirect_to argument of the current BP page.

If you want to remove all HTML, this should work:

`function bbg_remove_activity_html( $content ) {
return strip_tags( $content );
}
add_filter( ‘bp_get_activity_content_body’, ‘bbg_remove_activity_html’, 1 );
add_filter( ‘bp_get_activity_content’, ‘bbg_remove_activity_html’, 1 );
add_filter( ‘bp_activity_content_before_save’, ‘bbg_remove_activity_html’, 1 );`

If you want to remove HTML tags more selectively, check out the filter at the end of this function, which will allow you to modify which tags are allowed: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.4/bp-activity/bp-activity-filters.php#L90

I’m anxious to hear a response on this as well. I used bbpress for forums initially, but using that with BuddyPress it’s ugly as sin and there isn’t a forums directory page to display all the active forums (otherwise it did work). The interface for the forums inside BuddyPress looks very nice, but from sitewide forums, I couldn’t actually create any forums.

Options currently are:
a forum that works but is awful looking (bbpress)
a forum that looks nice but isn’t really working; at least ‘out of the box’ (BuddyPress)

Finally, this code probably won’t work all by itself, because `messages_get_unread_count()` assumes a logged-in user – but on an AJAX request, you’re not guaranteed to have that. So you may want to amend your ajax call and callback like so, to manually provide a user_id:

` jQuery.ajax({
….
user_id: ”,
….`

Check out the way that bp-default does AJAX (buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc – the files ajax.php (for the PHP callbacks) and global.js (for the scripts). Good luck!

The problem is that when you load message.php via AJAX, you’re not loading all of WordPress and BuddyPress, which means that the messages_get_unread_count() function is not defined.

Instead of using ‘message.php’ as your AJAX url, use the one that BP provides for you, and be sure to provide an ‘action’ parameter:
` jQuery.ajax({
url: ajaxurl,
action: ‘get_message_count’,
dataType….`

That’ll ensure that WP/BP is loaded on your AJAX call.

Then, you’ll need to make sure that you have a listener function in your functions.php, using the `wp_ajax_` syntax. (Read more here: http://w4dev.com/wp/wp_ajax/) Use `wp_ajax_` plus your chosen action name to define the hook:

`function bbg_messages_ajax_callback() {
echo messages_get_unread_count();
die();
}
add_action( ‘wp_ajax_get_message_count’, ‘bbg_messages_ajax_callback’ );`

Hi @takuya and @cyrille13 – Sorry for some of the miscommunications above. It was only after seeing the linked bug report that I was able recognize that what you were reporting was actually an instance of https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3725, which we’ve known about for a while, but which was very difficult to track down. (See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3725#comment:7 for all the gory details.) It has been fixed for the next version of BP. In the meantime, you can fix your installation either by manually applying https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5778, or by doing what @cyrille13 suggests: changing the name of your Full Name profile field at Dashboard > BuddyPress > Profile Fields.

Thanks for your patience.

Usually, those who use genesis or genesis child themes, also use the genesis connect plugin for BuddyPress compatibility. Having said that, looks like you’ve been successful using the BP Template Pack plugin.

You can use some or all of the style modifications used for BP Twenty Ten as posted in middle of this page https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/

WP/BP versions?

Have you:
1. re-run Settings > Permalinks and Set to something other than default permalink?
2. done basic troubleshooting like changing to bp-default theme and deactivating all plugins except BuddyPress?
3. deactivated bp-custom.php (if you have one) by renaming the file?

You’re welcome.

== group forums, where can I set it up? ==

Installing Group and Sitewide Forums

Man is select firt page Register > register.php
And after register or login redirect to member page how to fix?

@markyeoj
1. I am getting blank pages in login and other pages of your site.
2. The code you posted for the page.php is that of bp-default theme’s, I need your theme’s page.php

The “log out function” is part of WordPress. What do you mean?

@shaver Site URI would help us see what’s wrong. What method did you use to make your theme compatible with BP aka Step 3? First method (change 16 template files) or second method (create xxx-buddypress.php) ?.

@markyeoj know that we are volunteers here living in different time zones and could have work similar or totally different from web development.

I checked the HTML structure of your BP pages has duplicate #content aside from extra closing div/s. I changed to bp-default theme and group creation worked including group avatar upload.

This leads me to conclude that something went awry with the BP Compatibility process. Backup then Delete the 6 BP folders transferred to your WP theme folder and re-run the BP Compatibility process.

Post the source code of your header.php, sidebar.php, index.php, page.php, and footer.php in pastebin.com and I’ll let you know which files to add/change.

There are duplicate closing divs and what not. What method did you use to fix alignment of your theme with BP? The first method (revising 16 BP template files) or the second method (creating xx-buddypress.php files)?

@juanmaguerrero, i am not a coder, but i can place code in my function.php. you can please paste the complete code with a bit of explanation because of many nobe like me.

i know many will be so grateful if this function did work. auto load more function rocks

regards

@theTechnaddict, I tried to play with ostatus last year but then it broke and wasn’t updated in over 12 months so i abandoned it… hope your experience is better
