Have you gone through the BP upgrade wizard? There should be a “BuddyPress has been updated…” message on your Dashboard or your Network Admin panel.
Try renaming the folder wp-content/plugins/bp-template-pack to something like `bp-template-pack-backup`. Then try again. That’ll give you a sense of whether the problem is being caused by the template pack. If nothing else, you can do the same thing for the buddypress directory as well.
After upgrading to the latest BP 1.5, did you walk through the installation wizard?
@karmatosed I thought perhaps the more native solution will be easier in updating and so, plus, I don’t know exactly how to accomplish your solution, you mean like creating a child theme and editing the index.php? BTW, do you know if there is a shortcode for buddypress register like the ones in bbpress?
@djpaul I hoped the one who actually added the redirect see this topic, great you did 
will wait your update.
@ islandcastaway i tried but was unsuccessful. It seem like all the buddypress themes do the same. with the sample page. as before on the previous buddypress 1.2 i would set the sample page as static frontpage and would only see edit this entry.
@Paul Gibbs Yes, when i make the sample page as the static front page it would show add a reply.
From what I’ve read from the link islandcastaway posted it’s seems that the pages “sample page” is acting as a wordpress theme instead of a buddypress theme page.
buddypress 1.5 solved a lot of issues including this one!
Which version of BuddyPress are you using?
https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/
This page should give you some helpful info. I know this has been asked a number of times in the past.
Which version of BuddyPress are you using?
I’m getting an error on your site because you have my_bp_groups_forum_first_tab delcared in both bp-custom.php and functions.php. Go ahead and remove it from one (probably functions.php for now) because you will get a PHP error since you have the same function name trying to load twice. FYI, the bp-custom.php file is for anything BuddyPress related, where the functions.php file is just for the theme.
Once it’s working try it when you are not both logged in and on a public group. The if statements in there require that you either be a member of the group or the group be public, so it’s possible it was working but you didn’t see it if you were logged in (probably as the admin) and had not officially joined that group.
In your WordPress settings, what have you set your “show as front page” to?
Hello,
You will need to edit the “home page” and turn off comments for that page http://www.blog.web6.org/disable-comments-wordpress-3-1-tutorial/
or you will need to make a custom page in your themes template folder to not include the comments section.
I’m not aware of any polling plugin with built-in buddypress integration. Perhaps you could get adventurous and try to custom integrate an existing plugin to work with Buddypress, but that would require a fair amount of work.
I’ve not noticed any delay in any of my BuddyPress sites. Perhaps it’s just a coincidence with the particular ones you’ve been visiting?
As for Custom Community – you’ll need to do a few things. Make sure you’ve added widgets to the sidebar in the WordPress Dashboard and also make sure the sidebar is being called properly in the theme template files – such as sidebar.php, homepage.php (or frontpage.php or something similar). Also make sure the the CSS files in the theme are positioning the sidebar to the left of the content. Do you have link you can share?
@Boone – see the update above:
UPDATE: Found the culprit – A javascript was being enqueued incorrectly – essentially it was being called externally, but it didn’t actually exist!
Re-added the file and it’s working fine now.
good call, @qrahaman – what browser are you using @bigbadboy?
Thanks for your reply!
Do you know if I there is a widget out there which will allow me to display the links?
Just going to do a sanity check here as for me it is on default install blank named – so that would be a name you gave it right? Alternatively only thing I can think of at this point (others may have better ideas) would be is there any chance you have a plugin on along with BuddyPress?
I assume they would be planning an update. If they don’t you can always merge the template pack for BuddyPress with the theme – not a small task if you don’t know code / feel comfortable though.
I’m not sure Canvas is updated to BuddyPress 1.5 yet is it?
I’m not sure how updating core would affect your custom theme… unless you had made the changes to the theme inside the buddypress directory, which would have been overridden with the upgrade.
Cool thank you for updating us – hopefully we’ll see this list at 100% in the next few days now 1.5 is out in the wild.
Did you update that theme to the (if it has one) BuddyPress 1.5 version? I’m a thinking if you didn’t my theory over scripting could be the problem. Doesn’t ‘overly’ solve the how it’s working now but lets just consider that a positive
Are you using BuddyPress 1.5 – I ask as it would mean checking you are using the template pack for this latest version.
The process for the template pack is if it has file permissions it will put files in correct places – if it doesn’t you do. I assume you went through a manual one (ie; adding in yourself) however it seems perhaps you didn’t put them in the structure they were listed in the pack. / would be in this case the root or bottom folder of your theme ie; themename/
thanks @karmatosed – the other two sites are on default bp theme. while this dennis-the-menace is on a canvas child theme.
