BuddyPress.org

@davidtcarson thanks but I’m now rereading my post and it looks like a screwed the terminology all up in trying to refer to the Custom Header link under Appearance -> Header as the wp-admin “menu item”. hehe. Not the frontend navigation menu.

Just how there is a Appearance -> Background, I thought that there was also a Appearance-> Header to customize the bp-default header’s color/image background. I’m not seeing it.

@pjnu To use the theme prior the official BuddyPress 1.5 release, you must consistently update both BuddyPress (https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk) and Frisco (https://github.com/davidtcarson/frisco).

The BuddyPress team is making updates everyday to BuddyPress 1.5. And I am making updates almost every day to the theme. If your BuddyPress version has not been updated or the theme has not been updated, you should expect to see strange results.

This will all settle down once BuddyPress 1.5 is released and Frisco theme is in the WordPress theme repository.

@pjnu What version of BuddyPress and WordPress are you using?

“Frisco requires BuddyPress 1.5 and WordPress 3.2.1 or 3.3 (nightly build).”

Ah, got it sported. it was just the permalinks needed setting to ‘/%post_id%/%postname%’

Thanks to Steve bruner for help!

Sorry to post so much, but I found what the problem was. It’s a plugin called “Permalink Fix & Disable Canonical Redirects Pack”. It was really useful because I can use MAMP + wordpress on firefox, but it went rogue.

So now here’s the new problem: How do I work on my wordpress/buddypress on firefox? Because now I get this like before:

“The page isn’t redirecting properly.
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.”

@djpaul @Stigmartyr all right, I think this isn’t a permalinks issue. I deleted ALL of my posts, making my homepage naked except for the slideshow (now empty), menu bar and widgets. Now when I click on a page (say about), I get

Any ideas on what the problem is?
Or should I create a new topic?

I couldn’t get it work. These edits will move my content div, but sidebar isn’t showing at all. Any other tips?

@djpaul What specifically would you like to see?

Under my htaccess file, I have

bp-maintenance.php
bps-maintenance-values.php
default.htaccess
deny-all.htaccess
maintenance.htaccess
secure.htaccess
wpadmin-secure.htaccess

default.htaccess looks like this:

`# BULLETPROOF .46.D >>>>>>> DEFAULT .HTACCESS

# If you edit the line of code above you will see error messages on the BPS status page
# WARNING!!! THE default.htaccess FILE DOES NOT PROTECT YOUR WEBSITE AGAINST HACKERS
# This is a standard generic htaccess file that does NOT provide any website security
# The DEFAULT .HTACCESS file should be used for testing and troubleshooting purposes only

# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

# END WordPress
`

@4ella

What did you do to the original code to make the entry save ?

@Stigmartyr

I’m using MAMP which is a local hosting application for Mac.
It runs Apache and MySQL.

Meant @djpaul
sigh.
delete and edit on buddypress.org is not functioning

Here are more specifics about the problems.

-All pages redirect to home
-When clicking on a specific group, it redirects to home
-When clicking on a specific forum topic, it redirects to home
-Friends, general groups, general forums and activity stream work fine
