tried deleting cache didn’t help.
@funmi —…. and do you have an idea as of how to achieve that !??!
Thanks!
Use multisite instead.
Don’t add another wp install in a subdirectory. Enable the network on the main site. you can hav sub dir sites with it and they share a userbase.

@Boone Gorges Thanks so much, that worked again 
I hope someone will update the codex page later cause many links refer to it in forums, that’s how I found it in first place
LAST TRY
Why doesn’t buddypress work with wordpress as it should and as it is told by the experts.
pages are not found so who CAN help me?
StudioPress has a paid plugin to make their Genesis child theme buddypress compatible. you can do the work manually as mercime has suggested, or you can get the plugin. ask them over there. 
Or, go back to using just bbpress and install a private messaging plugin if that’s all the extra you need?

that’s just one i found.
What theme are you using? What is the link to your site?
@christophg Awesome! Can’t wait to have the time to look into it. Unfortunately my community is already over 200 strong, and counting! So unless I can make this idea work retro active it won’t work for my project. I plan to dig into my idea next week. (hopefully it happens this time!)
@imjscn For my communities needs a 5 star system is best. I’m sure it wouldn’t be hard to mold my idea into a thumbs up/down system. Keep watching this thread, as I make progress I’ll post it here. You may also want to look in christophg’s idea if you have a young or new community.
Have you cleared browser cache?
And is the site doing any database caching?
the code didn’t show properly and I can’t edit the post, so that is the link for codex page that have the code:

When deleting friends my count doesn’t go down?
@pisanojm The BP_Activity_Template::__construct() problem has been fixed in the trunk; see https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3421 Thanks for the report.
@imjscn You should be prompted to run the wizard in a yellow message across the top of the Dashboard (or Network Admin, on Multisite). Or, underneath the Dashboard > BuddyPress menu, you should see a Setup button.
@candy2012 — i think you are right. !! good point.
I thought for sure there would be a small filter we could use to remove links in ONLY ACTIVITY… but I guess not.
Ah you were right. Thank you! What good news this was to wake up to!
So I have been completely unable to install BuddyPress – it cripples my site every time I try. Any ideas of how I can do it successfully?
@djpaul , I deactive and deleted the whole buddypres folder, then, ftp up the bp 1.5. I thought this is an install? but the wizard steps are not presented.
How to do a new install?
@enderandrew, of course. are 755 for each folder. I’ve tried to switch to 777, no way.
I think it’s not a problem about dir premission: uploading avatars through profile->change avatar (instead last step on registration process) it works like a charm.
Interesting discussion here. @embergermedia , did you consider a vote up and vote down system ? It can be more powerful when we want to use the total votes to do something else.
Question doesn’t seem to really cover BuddyPress. I’d suggest you try searching on the WordPress.org forums
Buddypress v. 1.2.9
WP v. 3.2.1
Hi,
I’m trying to figure out a way to allow users to add new Posts to existing blog categories but with control over the categories they are allowed to post to… but I’m having no luck finding a way to do that.
Users are registered as Contributors.
This is a single site (not allowing them to create their own blogs)
When you click on the Dashboard > New Post link, you can see the actual dashboard in the site. It looks a bit tacky and confusing because you can see everyone’s posts in there as well as your own. There are hundreds…
1. I would like to disallow users from posting to the main category, and force them to choose a subcategory.
2. I would like to allow them to post on the frontend if possible, it’s not a major necessity (functionality is more important right now).
I have already tried the 2 plugins I found listed here in the forums, but they are both broken.
Perhaps I’m missing something in the settings for Buddypress? or maybe there’s a hack for this?
thanks!
It’s probably a good idea if you contact the author of this plugin to tell them their plugin shouldn’t be crashing the site if someone disables groups
Toggling them back on in the component settings (where you turned them off) should restore everything without any data loss.
We added two new parameters to the BP_Activity_Template class. The error is because they are missing. Please report this on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/, those new values should have defaults for back pat.
Have you guys checked the file permissions of the avatar folder to make sure Buddypress can write files there?
