@hkcharlie: Hi! You may check your server CPU usage from your cPanel under the statistics section on the bottom left side of the page. there’s a small link under CPU usage that also shows the graph for the last 24 hours.
I am using a free version
@sidv,
The only time this has failed to work properly is when FB makes changes to its API without notifying anyone who may use it: http://www.justin-klein.com/projects/wp-fb-autoconnect
Other than that, it’s rock solid.
And you had better follow Justin’s instructions wrt requesting help, should you need it… 
It seems that it’s not generating the 35x35px avatars for all users?! Thats so strange!
@r-a-y Thanks for the tip. Will try it out.
Hi, I want to enable all users to log in through their Facebook account to make things easier for them. Is there any way to do this; I have tried many plug ins but none seem to do the job. I am new to WordPress and Buddypress so any help would be great!
If it is possible. I have a phpfoxv3 site running and will be using wordpress/ buddypress to replace but if it is not possible, then i am still happy to start fresh
Therefore their is no way to restrict users from creating limited number of groups? thanks @mercime
Running WordPress 3.4.2 with BuddyPress 1.6.1 and HostGator.
Basically when I send a friend invite the recipient receives the notification, however, when he accepts the request it says accepted and nothing happens. The request returns to pending and stays that way no matter what except when I disable friend connections.
Also when I request to join a group there is not a notification sent to the Admin of the group.
We had BuddyPress working on a previous theme, and working with the current one yesterday. I’m very confused as to what the problem is.
i have run into slight prob: vis:
using BP 1.6 and basically following code here:
http://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/group-extension-api/
all works fine, except cant find where to administer or display group widgets as defined by the overridden widget_display().
cant see any output anywhere, front or back end.
i get the impression these are not ordinary wp widgets, which might be further confusing me.
what i am doing wrong?
thanks for any assistance.
@cleaus I made no mention of a child theme anywhere. Let’s re-start this conversation with: where did you download your theme, WP theme repository (free version) or at theme author site (PRO version)?
@mercime Agreed. It took me a week to figure it out. Finally, copied the default.css to my child theme and began modifying it there. I just need to remove few extra borders here http://ourcog.org/ and style the menu effects like http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/
Definitely, a lesson learned the hard and time consuming way.
@bibliata I believe there’s a misunderstanding here. You should not be changing anything within the bp-default theme in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/
If you want to revise the bp-default theme, you should create a child theme https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/
BP Columns is already a child theme of bp-default theme. If you want to make any style changes in this child theme, the simplest thing to do there is add your new styles at the bottom of custom.css file and back it up since it will be overwritten when it’s upgraded. Or, you can create a new css file e.g. mystyles.css in BP Columns theme folder to add your new styles to, then open up style.css file and add
`@ import url( mystyles.css );`
under `@ import url( custom.css );`
(remove the space between @ and import when you do this)
If you’re using Firefox, install the Firebug add-on to help you ID what elements need to be changed.
And, as I’ve mentioned in the other post, you can use a WP theme which approximates the layout you need and install the BP Template Pack plugin. For reference, we have a list of “bp-template-packed” WP themes, free and premium @ https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#template-packed-wordpress-themes
@charlietech do provide a test-user/throw-away username and password to your site so we could check out what you’ve posted above
@tomelk31 No problem. You’re lucky you only had to add styles instead of revising 16 template files for Step 3 Marking this as resolved.
Hi, you’d need to either get a theme for BuddyPress that had bbPress / forum styling built in or create your own theme for it. It’s quite well documented though:
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/
https://codex.bbpress.org/component/theme/
Guys, this really is outside the scope of this forum as it pertains to a third party plugin. Someone may or may not answer these types of support requests. This support forum is for answering questions like “how do I set up the BuddyPress Pages”.
s2member uses WordPress Roles and Capabilities: https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities
Learn about how that works and then you can wrap any code you want hidden by s2member. Specificly user levels/roles. Google it 
Hey Guys,
Great plugin (for me its a small system not only a plugin)!
I have the same problem as @charlietech. I want to restrict acces to some of the BuddyPress features and i am using s2member for a sibscription levels.
I will give you a short example”:
Level#0 – Subscriber – can only communicate with Level#0 subscribers. Can not create groups, can not create events etc.
Level#2 – Bronze member – can access profiles to all subscribers of level#0 and Level #1. Can also create events and create albums.
Level#3 – Silver member – can access profiles to all subscribers of level#0 and Level #1 and Level #2. Can also create groups, get access to forums etc.
I am agree with @modemlooper that this question concerns s2member, but it concerns Buddypress as well.
Please, Guys, help all the customers here with an exact answer or advice!
Thank you all for your time and attention!
Kind regards,
Veselin
How can I customize the buddypress forums a bit. They look very basic at the moment here http://www.chelseatalk.co.uk/forum
I want it to look more like this: http://forum.talkchelsea.net/
@mercime Thanks for all your help. It is working great now, I think it was my PC cache rather than the site cache which I cleared to begin with.
It is working fine now though!
@mercime As i did not use a child theme, is there any way of just replacing the old missing files with the new files i download in the new theme?
There was a free plugin but it has not been updated for some time https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/import-from-ning/ There have been many changes to BP since the plugin was released though.
There’s a premium plugin http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/ning-to-buddypress-user-importer/
which states it’s compatible with latest version. There’s a link to contact them on same page for any pre-sales questions.
