BuddyPress.org

hi @mercime,

i am using the same theme as misterbdon (instyle theme) and followed your instructions. almost there, but buddypress is extending past the theme’s sidebar on the right side of the page still. why? can u explain more “The Sample Page made it all clear. I have revised all codes added to the bottom of header-buddypress.php and at the top and bottom of sidebar-buddypress.php in this post. ” u posted? really appreciate you help!

ditto… there are heaps of issues on this site still…. I thought it was just me.

sounds like you want to have 2 different types of memberships… Which is what I’d like to implement as well!

Just as a sanity check you’ve set to use forums and you’ve gone through their set up process?

Perhaps resaving your permlinks ‘could’ also help? I’m thinking maybe you have a plugin or something that is also interfering but take it you’ve tried using the default BuddyPress theme and / or removing plugins to see?

Assuming you are using the latest 1.5 BuddyPress I think you can just assign the page you’ve linked to registration as the home page by using reading settings. That’s a lot simpler method doesn’t require any copy and pasting.

@boonebgorges: Thanks: this all helps. My very related question: can I have “activity” and “members” and “groups” pages on multiple blogs? For example, can I have groups pages here:

example.com/groups
my.example.com/groups
another.example.com/groups

I want the same groups showing on all the pages (the ones in my core BuddyPress install). It’s just a matter of allowing my users to access the BuddyPress features within each site.

Thanks again.

Out of interest are you using any other plugins? It could be a plugin clash. I’d also suggest you reset your htacess / permlinks (just incase).

And what would this S3 integration do, exactly?

HI,

I’m newbie to wp & bp….

I want to facilitate an options for my users to import the contacts from their Emails…

I try Openinviter-for-wordpress for this…

It works fine with GMail but gives error messages with all other networks…

I googled for this issue and didn’t find the workin solution….

Could anyone using this plugin successfully pls let me know…&….help me regarding ths…..

Thanks in advance…..

If you’re running BuddyPress 1.5+, go to Appearance > Custom Header in wp-admin, and I’m pretty sure there’s a “remove” button

I”m so sad that this plugin isn’t being updated any more, I really like the activity stream comments in the forum posts, it is AWESOME, but since BP 1.5 upgrade, the ‘READ MORE’ link to expand activity stream comments doesn’t work when trying to expand them inside the group forum

Well I’ve just done it ( https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5227 ) and the issue seems to be fixed!

Unfortunately it means changing the lines in the `/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-catchuri.php` file

This edit will be overwritten when buddypress is upgraded, and buddypress may have further revisions to 1.5* before 1.6 (with the fix) hatches so take notes in case you have to re-do it!

Make sure you back everything up before trying the edit!

Click extend above

edit – missing slash was only obscured in code. htaccess looks fine. deactivate s2member plugin and change to default theme, then run settings > Permalinks.

@richardpd
– What version of BP were you trying to activate in your installation? If you installed/upgraded to BP 1.5.1, did you go through the “Installation Wizard”
– How did you make your WP theme BP-compatible – via BP Template Pack plugin or other method?
– Are you on single WP or WP Multisite?
– I see that you have your Group Forums on as well http://richard-dickinson.com/forums/
– For the Sitewide Forums, did you add new forum in wp-admin > Forums > New Forum at least once?

The fix in that ticket is going to be included in BuddyPress 1.6. You’d need to edit the file(s) and make the changes manually

500s are internal server errors. Check your web server’s error logs (or ask your web host to do that for you).

And I’m closing this thread, too. This sort of discussion does not benefit anyone.

To recap: There are known issues with BuddyPress.org. John Jacoby is working to address them. BuddyPress.org is never, and has never, been representative of a “demo” of BuddyPress; after all, it’s the project’s main website.

http://testbp.org is a demo site, however, and is frequently updated to the latest, cutting-edge version of BuddyPress.

On a similar thread I was told that there was some sort of “retrofit” going on and that I should check the buddyPress demo site.
I checked the buddyPress demo site and there was absolutely no information regarding the buddyPress forum bugs. However, the thread I started got locked so I could not respond.
Might be worthwhile putting your comments over on the wordpress plugin forum for buddyPress so people know what they’re getting.

@apeatling this is really bad that buddypress forums doesn’t even work …. its scary i think as it should be working better not worse than our own buddypress sites ….. the forum and profiles on this site are pretty much unusable ..have brought up multiple issues but nobody ever responds ….. just now i tried to go to page 2 of a forum buddypress mobile forum and instead of page 2 of posts i get a totally blank white screen

I have the same bug in BP 1.5.1. To fix it I had to go to bp-members-template.php line 309 to replace the code with what @pcwriter posted. Should a ticket be made?
