Not even one response?? :/
Come on guys… There must be something… 🙂
@splendidangst an alternative to complete theme change per profile, you might also consider allowing users to change their profile page background. Then go further and allow groups to change group’s background as well 🙂
@tosen haven’t used woo-tumblog plugin. There’s a free plugin http://buddydev.com/plugins/buddyblog/ which will allow BP members to post from front-end in their profile areas. So instead of hiring a dev, you might like to donate to the plugin author instead 🙂
Hi
I’m new to buddypress and have been unable to find a way to add a file upload feature to a user profile.
I’m creating a client and candidate management system for a recruitment agency, all users managed by admin. They require the ability to add a cv document to a candidate profile.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I’m testing BuddyPress with 1.7-rc1 bbPress 2.3-rc1 on WP3.5.1.
I’m building a BuddyPress Default child theme and may have encountered an issue with bbp_get_topic_id().
Can bbp_get_topic_id() be used to get the main topic id from a Buddypress group>forum>topic+replies page?
If yes, then how? (a quick code line example please)
If not then how else should this be done?
Thank you.
Goodday everyone,

All is well. BuddyPress shows up in the sites. Not being experienced with BP, I did not know what to look for. Thanks for the prompt response
Hey all!
Hopefully a quick one for you.
I have 3 different Member Directories on my site created using BuddyPress User Account Type Lite plugin. I am hoping to add a filter/search at the top of the lists to filter by one of the Profile Fields. I am using BP Profile Search plugin which is working to some degree.
At the moment, it is at the top of all the Member Directory lists, however it is not displaying the correct results on two of the directories. The results which display are for the original directory. I have tried changing the Filtered Members List value in Users -> Profile Search, Advanced Options tab as per the documentation but this has not helped.
You can see the issue here at the following locations:
http://adoptapet.ie/rescues
http://adoptapet.ie/pounds
http://adoptapet.ie/vets
The resuces page was the original directory on the site, the pounds and vets pages are the second and third ones created. If a search is carried out on pounds or vets, it displays the results for rescues.
I am using WP 3.5.1, BP 1.6.4 and BP Profile Search 3.2
I hope someone can help!
Cheers
Damien
Thank you for taking the time to respond. I will begin the process of seeing if a plugin is interfering with the buddypress function.
Just FYI, I tried it with the default BP theme and it gave me the same message.
When I installed BuddyPress I never got the “install wizard” the codex is talking about. I installed Buddypress about a year ago for a few days and now am trying again, could this be an additional clue to why it’s not working?
If so, how do I get the installation wizard to pop back up? (I’ve deactivated, deleted buddypress, and reinstalled with no installation wizard coming up).
Thanks
hi @talitaco,
BP 1.7 introduce a new template era.
So for child theme, you don’t have to add the import comments to styles.css
You also need to read and read and read, untill you get it, the Codex:
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-compatibility/add-buddypress-styles-to-a-theme/
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-and-designer-information/
latest version of wordpress
buddypress 1.7
so i’ve opened a folder in themes named it “silver” added new file style.css and copied the following
/*
Theme Name: silver
template: bp-default
Author: tali
Description:lets start
Version: 1.0
Tags: buddypress, two-column, grey, dark
*/
/* Inherit the default theme styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css );
/* Inherit the default theme adminbar styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css );
body{
background-color:red;
}
the silver theme was activated but the body color did’nt change:(
after reading all the similar threads on this subject i added a file functions.php
and the code is:
if ( !function_exists( 'bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles' ) ) :
function bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles() {
// Bump this when changes are made to bust cache
$version = '1.0';
// Register our main stylesheet
wp_register_style( 'silver', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css', array(), $version );
// Enqueue our main stylesheet
wp_enqueue_style( 'silver' );
}
add_action( 'wp_print_styles', 'bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles' );
endif;
still nothing:(
what am i doing wrong?
how to change styles?
@wesmantooth,
you have to test first the default install. WP and BuddyPress with bp-default template.
Don’t forget to activate all BP components and to SAVE after each step.
Read also (again ?) here before: https://codex.buddypress.org/legacy/configuring-components-v1-6/
If you have some plugins, you activate them one by one, and test again your install between each step.
If this config works, you can install your theme and test again.
So you will rapidly be fixed.
@bobsgt,
if you use a network install, no matter as subdomain or sub directory, it’s preferably to install BP on the main blog.
On a standard MS, this means that WP is at the server root (ie. /xxx/xxx/htdocs/www/wp-content/)and BP installed as plugin in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/ and network activated.
Don’t install BP on each blog nore on the main blog and a network blog…. Installing BP on one of the sub blog, not the main blog, will be complex and very complicated in some case to manage with permalinks and redirections, except if you know what you’re doing, and specially if you use sub domain blogs.
I’m creating a buddypress social network for A/L student. When user tries to register using name@example.com email, He will not receive emails from buddypress. If user is entered such email as name@gmail.com there is no problem at all. I can’t identify what is going on. Please help me to proceed.
Thanks
(wp and bp are latest versions)
@mercime thanks, makes everything a lot more simple by disabling the discussion component on buddypress. I also had a bug when activating ONLY the group forums with buddypress, for some reason it broke the group avatar uploader however this was fixed when I installed the site wide forums as well.
one issue resolved, one still open.
Now seems to be working on the parent site. Had to add Search page and another page..seems to have cleared the issue.
Still no evidence of a buddypress plug in on the subsite
Tried to install BB 1.7 rev. 6885 trunk
This is a multisite installtion where wordpress is installed in a subdirectory named editions.
Was able to network install, network activate and configure. Once completed, I went to the admin panel and tried to list all of my pages. The following warnings appeared at the top of the panel. The same error occurs when I try to list all posts. This occurs in the parent site.
I have plugin activation allowed by sites but there is no evidence of buddy press in the subsite plugin list. The warnings are:
Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Compilation failed: unrecognized character after (? or (?- at offset 3 in /home/surfingh/public_html/editions/wp-includes/class-wp.php on line 204

When a user is logged in, the sub links in the Admin bar for Activity, Sites, Settings, Profile, etc. do not work on iOS mobile devices.
I tested the sub links on buddypress.org on my iOS device, they also do not work.
WordPress Version: 3.5.1
BuddyPress Version: 1.6.5

Hello,
I am just getting into BuddyPress, seems really neato, but ran into a few problems.
I am using WordPress 3.5.1
BuddyPress 1.6.5
and the Prestige Dark theme (themeforest)
I know this is not a buddypress theme, I followed the instructions contained int he compatibility plugin, and it ‘looks’ really nice.
The Problem:
I have two test accounts, I tried to add one as a ‘friend’ to the other and I get a message that says “Friendship could not be requested”. When I try to message it says there is an error, and when I click edit profile I get redirected to a page that doesn’t exist.
It seems like there could be (I hope) and easy explanation, like it being a communication issue between my WordPress and buddypress, but I really cannot find the keywords that would allow me to find a solution to this problem in this forum or on google.
I did find someone who said they had a similar problem, and it turned out there were database tables missing from his SQL, However, it looks like I should have all the database tables created that he was missing.
Thanks for taking the time to read this, and helping.

@ethane,
can be done in buddypress/themes/bp-default/sidebar.php
Make a copy of this file into your child theme.
Add between line 17 & 18
<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ): ?>
<div>your stuff here</div>
<?php endif; ?>
