BuddyPress.org

@Marcella You are way ahead of me in code but I am having the same trouble commenting on any posts using the defalut bp theme. just the form submission to the url domain.com/activity/reply/404 error.

@kalengi Whats the best way to start?

I am too after the fresh install

@mercime…after the fresh install i tried what you said…still 404’s everywhere in buddypress theme too.

@mercime…done that multiple times, I am now in the process of removing buddypress and doing a fresh install

Go to dashboard menu Plugins > Installed panel. Deactivate, then delete, then re-install BuddyPress and Activate. Before doing that, go to menu Settings > Permalinks and set to other than default/ugly permalink.

@palmdoc it’s usually the issue with needing to add /index.php/ to your permalink. Check out if the following link will help you https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/iis7-web-config/

@FuriousCigars after changing to bp-default theme, clear cache and run Settings > Permalinks.

I too am having the same issue, getting 404’s on anything member account related, can’t even view the profile page. The only difference is, my site is live and not a fresh install, I have already disabled plugins, and tried the default buddypress theme, and still get the same errors. I have searched online all over and not found a solution. I will gladly provide a login to someone who fixes buddypress.

Help!

..I wait as well

styles and scripts are enqueued in a function run from the bp-default functions.php file

Mid way down this page explins the workings:
https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/1-5-developer-and-designer-information/

You can either call the function yourself in your child themes function.php file – which will override the running of the bp version – and then simply declare the files you want omitting the ones you don’t or you can go another route and de-register the responsive stylesheet.

The example I linked to above doesn’t actually show the responsive sheet as being declared so was probably written before that stylesheet was included so you may get away with copy pasting the function to your functions.php file.

However I would think rather than remove ‘responsive’ a better course of action is to id where the issue is happening first, as collapsing the sidebar doesn’t sound right and I wouldn’t have thought the responsive sheet would have done this.

Hi there,
I’m not quite sure what you’re looking for, but if you want to make your complete Community private you can use the plugin “BuddyPress Private Community” or search for another bp privacy plugin.

Hey @Marcella, are you still stuck on this? If so, what’s the structure of your code/pages so far? I may be able to help…

Open up your theme’s header.php, copy the code and paste onto pastebin.com, click submit and post the generated URL here. Do the same for footer.php, sidebar.php, index.php and page.php

As for the buttons, you can use Firebug, a Firefox add-on, or use Chrome and right-click to inspect element and check button style conflict.

I have no idea just looking at the images. Site url? If not, you could ask the theme developer to look over the information above and give the correct template structure.

You don’t need to do the whole translation – just the word(s) etc, that you want. It is also used in a slug so that would need to be dealt with….

Another way is linked to in the above note but ‘friend’, and variations of it, appear in lots of places so translation might be better ….

Poedit does make the task easier and you don’t lose the language ‘edits’ when buddypress is upgraded….

Couldn’t you use something like travel-junkie’s walled garden technique:
`
function sh_walled_garden()
{
global $bp;
if( bp_is_register_page() || bp_is_activation_page() || bp_is_page( BP_FORUMS_SLUG ) || bp_is_page( BP_GROUPS_SLUG ) )
return;

if( ! bp_is_blog_page() && ! is_user_logged_in() )
bp_core_redirect( bp_get_signup_page() );
}
add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘sh_walled_garden’ );
`
This goes in bp-custom.php and hides members and activity from those not logged in but enables forums and groups for everyone. It can also be customised…..

Closing this, you posted the same in the other thread which I’ve renamed to reflect your issue. https://buddypress.org/community/groups/installing-buddypress/forum/topic/nothing-on-pages/

Pagelines has video about this http://www.pagelines.com/docs/buddypress or get a free forum account there at http://www.pagelines.com/launchpad/signup.php?price_group=-128&product_id=128&hide_paysys=free or do a search in theme’s forums

There’s also a year-old solution which you might want to check out https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-buddypress#post-1796598

Open up you 13thfloor theme’s header.php and Save As > header-buddypress.php in the same theme folder. Open up header-buddypress.php and at the very bottom of the file, below other code, add:
`

`
Save and upload to theme folder in server in same level as sidebar.php file

You have to add the following to your 13thfloor’s stylesheet:
`#content div.padder {
float: left;
width: 560px;
}`
the above will take the place of #content-area which is not available in BP template files.

Furthermore, you might want to modify the styles included in BP Template Pack, check out the mods used in this page https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/
