This, more than likely, isn’t a BP issue, and BP just piggybacks on WP’s settings. More than likely this is an issue where WP Multisite hasn’t been set up properly, of possibly an issue with your PHP install.

@janismo Yep. I see the problem. Sorry about that. It’s a lot harder to catch your mistakes when you’re not using a dedicated code editor Try this instead.

thanks @el_terko ,

it works, but do you know how to remove reply button for certain activities and change order of meta buttons. At the moment view button stands 4 in a row?

13 BuddyPress template files were transferred to your active WordPress theme during the BP template pack process. Download said 13 BP template files to your computer and start making the following revisions starting with the activity/index.php file:

At the top of the file, replace:
`

`

Save and do the same for the remaining 12 BP template files. Upload to server.

hi @cnorris23 ,

tried to implement your changes, result is (for functions.php):

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_RETURN

Looks like you installed WP in community subfolder. Unfortunately, you haven’t uploaded all the WordPress files and folder required to make it work. Before installing BuddyPress, make sure that your WordPress install is working well
https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/

This *ought* to work fine in BP 1.2.8. If, however, you’re sure it isn’t (and it’s not an odd conflict with another plugin), please report a bug on https://trac.buddypress.org/, using your username & password from this site. Cheers!

Do you want to take your question over to WPMU? You can pay for a response over there.

my-columns will have it’s own style.css (as it is a clone of bp columns which has one) and that is where you change the font sizes and colours etc. It will overwrite the css in buddypress default theme. So you could change the font size by writing
`body {
font-size: 14px;
}`
in the my columns style.css file….

You can quite often see what needs to be changed using developer tools built into ie8 or firebug in firefox (and equivalents for other browsers). Firebug has a neat trick of being able to show changes as you make them….

As you are creating a child of bp default your changes won’t be lost when bp default is upgraded… bp columns is now a different theme and if it is upgraded you would need to compare the changes manually…

I actually used this method with bp columns to create the child of bp default I used here

You might also find https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/ useful if you haven’t already seen it!

Nope. Just make the changes @aces gave you, and you’ll be ready to edit how you please You’ll only to change the css in your new my_columns theme.

This would take some code work, because neither bbPress or BuddyPress store this information. You would need to hook into ‘groups_edit_forum_post’ and the use bb_update_postmeta() and bb_get_postmeta() to save/retrieve the information. The following will get you started:

`my_update_forum_post_last_edited( $post_id ) {
global $bp;

do_action( ‘bbpress_init’ );

$post_id = (int) $post_id;

if ( empty( $post_id ) )
return;

bb_update_postmeta( $post_meta, ‘last_edited_date’, bp_core_current_time() );
bb_update_postmeta( $post_meta, ‘last_edited_user’, $bp->loggedin_user->id );
}
add_action( ‘groups_edit_forum_post’, ‘my_update_post_lasted_edited’ );

function my_display_forum_post_last_edited() {
do_action( ‘bbpress_init’ );

$last_edited_user = bb_get_postmeta( bp_get_the_topic_post_id(), ‘last_edited_user’ );
$last_edited_date = bb_get_postmeta( bp_get_the_topic_post_id(), ‘last_edited_date’ );

if ( empty( $last_edited_user ) || empty( $last_edited_date ) )
return;

echo ‘Last edited by ‘ . bp_core_get_user_display_name( $last_edited_user ) . ‘ on ‘ . bp_format_time( $last_edited_date ) . ‘ ‘;
}
add_action( ‘bp_group_forum_post_meta’, ‘my_display_forum_post_last_edited’ );`

Could you post a bug report on Trac for this? Reference this topic. You can use the same username/password as you did to log in here. http://trac.buddypress.org

Aha just found a solution from Cindy Otty hanging around in Google cache, see below.
It’s only on line 40 instead of line 25 in bp_core_settings now.

—- solution—-

Okies, this problem is now fixed! Half of my issue was I forgot to turn on error display in php.ini so I could actually see if there were any. (Duh.)

So, when I did, voila!

Warning: require_once(wp-includes/registration.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/blahblah/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-settings.php on line 25

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘wp-includes/registration.php’ (include_path=’/home/blahblah/public_html/includes’) in /home/blahblah/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-settings.php on line 25

So, I opened up bp-core-settings.php and took a peek at line 25 to see why it wasn’t including what it was supposed to be and the line says:

require_once( WPINC . ‘/registration.php’ );

So I changed it to:

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/registration.php’ );

And now things are running perfectly. Yay!

I just found the same error! I cannot send messages to users with a dash in their username. The error I am getting is when I try to select that user as the recipient, it shows there name but then also the following errors IN the dropdown:

I get the same error for other users but message will go thru.

are you using genesis connect by any chance? I have a post in to them about it…

Add the code to your theme’s functions.php.

I’m still new to BuddyPress, so this may not be the best approach, but here’s what I’ve done:

1. Copy bp-default > groups > index.php into your own child-theme (make sure you keep the same directory structure)
2. Open the newly copied groups > index.php that is located in your child-theme
3. Find: “
4. Edit it by adding is_super_admin() to the if expression so it’s “ This is to check to see if user is logged in AND is a super_admin. If true then display the “create group button” if false then don’t.
