I have it set in gen admin options to allow for registration and all pages necessary for BP with their corresponding links which you can see on the top of my site???
@ghyatt I don’t see any links to the BuddyPress pages at the top of your site using Chrome, Firefox and Safari. Looking at source code however, I see that it’s there and covered via stylesheet of “This is a demo store for testing purposes — no orders shall be fulfilled.” purple band at the top of your site.
1) Not the issue, but recommend fixing -> Some of your BP pages have -2 in the URL like /register-2, /members-2, /activate-2, and /groups-2 which means that you probably moved the original register, members, activate, and groups page to Trash bin but did not delete the pages permanently. So when you created a new Register page for example, -2 was appended to the page slug.
2) Re layout of your BuddyPress pages – looks like your theme has a custom-coded page which does not follow the regular WordPress templating system. That’s why the BP theme compatibility is off, including the missing submit button. Change to Twenty Twelve theme and you’ll see the Submit button in the Register page. You’d need to create a buddypress.php file https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/theme-development/a-quick-look-at-1-7-theme-compatibility/
hello,
The userrpofiles works great!
Can you make this also for the groups, so you can post directly to groups?
That would be great!
Hi
I appreciate your response. Actually as mentioned in my post on that page, there seems to be something missing in my installation for doing just that, although I already have the recommended buddypress 1.7. I do not have that mentioned interface which has the option to add new members, but might be mistaken & need some little more guidance.
Kind regards

Hope these common problems getting solved in buddypress 2.0 and later 🙂
Upgrading to Buddypress 1.7 causes Courseware to fail.
I have a feeling that it is how Buddypress reads permalinks, or processes tabs’ contents in Buddypress.
I will do more testings and update later.
The main reason is I am using the Twit Connect plugin which seems to be the only plugin which let’s a member register via Twitter that is compatible with BuddyPress. When a user signs up their email isn’t captured as Twitter doesn’t make it available via their API. They also don’t have a password given to them but I assume BuddyPress creates one automatically for them. So if the user wants to log in in future they always have to use their Twitter to connect. There is no fall back on a username and password. My idea is to get them to add their email and password via general settings. But there is the problem of the current password requirement.
Any ideas how I could best approach the problem?
Can you implement this
https://github.com/johnkil/SideNavigation
instead of dropdown box for choosing filters ?
When I activate buddypress plugin as per instructions I have already set register and activate pages in my buddypress setting , But when I go to register page Profile Detail fields are not displaying even if I already have added profile fields(Users->Profile Fields)
mercime thanks,
the problem solve, thanks for helping. and now I am looking the new themes for my buddy press.
@darrylnuyda
I am not certain but it sounds like a php 5.4+ error.
Try adding this code to your themes functions.php between the opening and closing php tags:
`
error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_PARSE);
`
I am not saying this is a fix but it seemed to help me on several installations. Please still supply the info @mercime requested in case there is a better solution.
I’m new to buddypress but believed a login and register link would be placed in the header by default?
Not by default. It depends on the the design by theme author.
However, instead do I need to insert my own links or buttons within the header.php to make this work?
Yes. You would need to create those. See lines 8 through 59 of https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.7/bp-themes/bp-default/sidebar.php for code. Then adjust style to taste.
Hi @mrcime,
I don’t have any plugins use in the wordpress. version 3.5 latest.
when I decided to use the buddy press I’m shock when the error pop up in header part.
so, how can I fix this? can you help me?
Thank you, worked great! Keep up the devlopment.
That plugin has been updated for BP 1.6 per site’s plugin page. The best place to report on issues with the plugin is at plugin dev’s site http://buddydev.com/buddypress/buddypress-sitewide-activity-widget-for-buddypress-1-2-and-above/
I recall this same issue was caused by plugin/s related to Activity streams. @vaas have you tried deactivating other plugins one by one or batch by batch except BuddyPress to check which one is causing the issue?
@ramirocastro have you tried re-uploading BuddyPress manually via s/FTP for example? Looks like some files have not been uploaded completely. If that doesn’t work, WP/BP versions, single WP or multisite? If MS, BP in domain root or in subdirectory/subdomain?
@number_6 you can change “Your Friends” widget title in sidebar.php and sidebar-buddypress.php files in your theme. Please clarify, not quite sure what the issue is per image you attached which is not related to widgets at all.
@kosuke70
Your welcome. Thank you for telling us.
Thank you all for your comments.
I checked up the post @aces and @megainfo suggested, and found this plugin: WordPress Access Control, which seems to be working quite well, to my needs.
Will also check out other solutions.
Thank you again!
The docs for BP 1.7 say:
Introduced theme compatibility; BuddyPress works with any WP theme. You don’t have to do anything.
On of the users of my theme, Weaver II, says they are using 1.7, yet get this message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_blogs_subdomain_base() in /home/ams031/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/register.php on line 211
What might this issue be?
A quick search would have found these threads, scroll down there’s one that will help towards bottom of page.

@darrylnuyda WP/BP versions? What theme are you using? What other plugins are installed?
