… hope this help u:

I got the same issue. Buddypress is completely slowing down all my multisite network.

Somebody can help here?

== i have incerted the code to get the buddypress to display properly with my theme weaver 2 ==
Are you referring to this weaver theme http://wpweaver.info/themes/weaver/?
And if by “inserting code” you meant you installed BP Template Pack plugin and went through the BP compatibility process, did you use the second method for making the theme BP-compatible? like this https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/#compatibility

== the members show up fine but when i add pluging to buddy press to give more features to buddypress 1. Links 2 Albums the pages when these are clicked in the member bar puts the sidebar below the content cant seem to find where to fix this ==
If you use the second method (header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress,etc) for BP compatibility process per link I posted above, then you won’t have to make further change to templates provided by Links/Albums plugins

== When a topic is posted from a group this message is displayed in a red bar: “This group does not have a forum setup yet.” ==
Go to that specific Group’s Admin > Settings and click “Enable discussion forum”

== When a topic is posted and a group is slected from the Forums page this message is also displayed in a red bar: “Please pick the group forum where you would like to post this topic.” ==
Not quite sure what you mean. Did you post the topic from the specific Group’s > Forum page > New Topic or did you post from Forum Directory page > New Topic page where you should select the group from dropdown provided?

Several ways, but check out this plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/unconfirmed/

To disable activations (I would strongly recommend against this – it’d let spammers access your site much more easily), put this code somewhere, maybe in bp-custom.php:

`add_action( ‘bp_core_signup_send_activation_key’, ‘__return_false’ );`

Hello ppl,

I have tried and followed the instructions as given above but my forum turns blanc …
I was wondering if there is any techy around thats willing to help give it shot.

The scenario is, I am trying to import a bbPress forum into buddypress.

Thanks in advance.

Check how it’s done properly in bp- default https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.1/bp-themes/bp-default/header.php#L6 and in twentyten theme https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.2.1/wp-content/themes/twentyten/header.php#L21

I was going to make a hack for the plugin and then I realized something simple: Really simple… buddypress signup is the same as wordpress signup. Here;s the solution http://www.janvierdesigns.com/tutorials/janrain-engage-make-a-buddypress-plugin

I’ve never seen any errors regarding “you do not have sufficient permissions”. Are you trying to use site wide forums, group forums, or both?

You’re using a custom theme. Take a look at https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/1-5-developer-and-designer-information/#theme

BuddyPress.org has its own problems which are not related to the current released versions of BP and bbP at all. bbPress 1.0 will be continued to be distributed with BuddyPress for the foreseeable future, but we’re going to push and promote using bbPress 2.0 with BuddyPress much more.

I followed thoose isntructions and what happened to me was that I can not see the forums at all now. The group forums part have been closed down since day one in the BuddyPressside on the components page. The site wide forums have been isntalled through bbpress. I am using forums as slug. I had a forums page and it letted me to see the forums structures ( not the whole one though with 3 layers of subforums but I think it had to do with theme side problems that should now be fixed with the new update we just got for Salutation theme few hours ago ( still waiting for my admin to uppdate to newest theme update) ). But when I deleted the Forums page and took it away from the Trash as well the forums disapeared totally. Yess I went to Permalinks and saved there even though Permalinks page did not need to be changed or anything, but still did it for the sake of it. Did not help. I can not see the forums at all now.

Things have changed since 18 months ago so it would be better to start a new topic.

If you are interested in the walled garden privacy technique then for a much more recent discussion have a look here

You can limit access to forums by putting them behind private groups. By default, your members have the ability to post on the activity stream, but limiting access to groups, either by setting the Buddypress Admin panel to only allow Admins to create groups, or by using the Limit Group Creation plugin, you can keep your users out of certain forums.

Currently there is no out-of-the-box way to allow read-only access to a buddypress install; but given that it’s a SOCIAL network, it isn’t really a logical functionality to have: seems anti-social.

When you say “make a post on the site” are you talking about a Blog post in a WordPress Multisite install, or an Activity Stream update? A blog post from a user will create a hyperlink on the Activity Stream that will go directly to that blog, but very much like on this site, if you click directly on the avatar of the user in question, you should be taken to their profile page, on which you will see a “Friend” button, a “Private Message” button etc.

Ensure that you have activated all of these items in the Network Admin/Buddypress Panel. It is possible that you have friend connections; private messages; profiles; etc turned off. Here’s a nice tutorial on setting up Buddypress 1.5 http://wpmu.org/the-illustrated-guide-to-installing-and-setting-up-buddypress-1-5/comment-page-1/

you should implement or extend the roles of wordpress to work with, another solution is to use buddypress profile field’s and BuddyPress xProfiles ACL plugin to define roles

functions.php or bp-custom.php of your buddypress theme
