Re-run Settings > Permalinks to other than default setting. BuddyPress requires pretty permalinks
Hello,
I work for a client who wants a wordpress website where it will be possible:
• to sign-up to be registred in a directory (included the signature of a charter).
• or to become a member (included the signing of the charter) charging a cotisation after validation by the admin
•or to sign the charter of the association only
I ask me : how many forms ? how to articulate them ? Which plugins (buddypress ?)
You have an idea? Tell me!
Best regards,
Moque
Re-run Settings > Permalinks to other than default setting. BuddyPress requires pretty permalinks.
== I had to include index.php in the permalink and it is working now. ==
Yeah. I don’t believe that’s going to work with BuddyPress. See how it was resolved for user with Windows server in this thread without resorting to adding index.php
You’re welcome. Marking this as resolved.
I just installed buddypress a few days ago and my User Groups, Members, Activate, Register pages are not working.
I went through the installation wizard, made new pages for Activity Streams, User Groups, Members, Activate, Register and associated them to buddypress components.
But if I view those pages, they are just newly created empty pages.
I set buddypress activity template for Activity Streams page, so Activity Streams page is working but other pages are still empty and I don’t see templates for other pages.
I’m not sure if this is related to the issue, but I had a problem with setting up permalink before.
I had to include index.php in the permalink and it is working now.
Also, what I am developing is an internal intranet site.
Anyway, I have no clue what to do at the moment.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you @modemlooper I’m sure many users will be delighted by the addition 
I just installed WordPress, plus BuddyPress on a windows werver 2008 R2 and IIS 7.5/
After creating a web.config, I was able to get permalinks working. Now I have the issue of not being able to add status values, etc. I get the error “There was a problem posting your update, please try again”. I found post related to changing MySQL to not use strict, but these were dated 2 years ago, and seemed to be a hack back then.
Any thoughts?
Hi, I’m using iMember360 & Buddypress but I’m having an issue. When I create a new user, the username is automatically created based off the user’s email account and then the members url reflects their email address.
ie. If I register with test@domain.com
the users url is http://www.mysite.com/members/testdomain-com
is their a way I can override this so the url is based off the user’s id number instead? so it would be http://www.mysite.com/members/123 or even the user’s displayname?
Thanks @mercime. I enabled permalinks and modified the web.config so am past that hurdle.
@hkcharlie,
Zippykid.com is outstanding. After you vet them, you will probably arrive at the same conclusion. Tell them your situation, your concerns and they’ll give it to you straight up.
Can anyone recommend a reasonable minimum VPS setup for Buddypress setup with less than 50 users ?
With no more than 5 logging on at a time.
My spikes of usage come with processes rather than page loads, such as the creation of a group event and the sending out of emails to all the group members.
@valuser thanks i guess i was being a bit slow and didn’t even notice the zip download
thanks again!
@djpaul my slowness again not very good at searching or contributing to those tickets ill try to get better and thanks to you as well!
and @karmatosed yes i believe thats what the old school plugin said. thanks all around!
@kissandim didn’t get the notification. Just in case you haven’t found the solution yet, just move $profilelink before the $menu, therefore the last three lines should look like this:
$menu = $profilelink . $menu;
return $menu;
}
@cpinsd if you have more than one custom menu in your theme, find out the ‘theme_location’=>’???’ of that specific wp_nav_menu. For example, the location is mamamia then the code would be
// Filter wp_nav_menu() to add profile link in a specific custom menu e.g. mamamia
function mme_nav_menu_profile_link($menu, $args) {
if( is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'mamamia' ){
$profilelink = '<li><a href="' . bp_loggedin_user_domain( '/' ) . '">' . __('My Profile', 'yourtheme') . '</a></li>';
$menu = $menu . $profilelink;
}
return $menu;
}
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'mme_nav_menu_profile_links', 10, 2 );
I wasn’t able to find any new updates regarding this. I am looking to add the post form to a pop up. Is there any documentation on how to correctly handle this?
Sorry that you feel that way.
I’ve looked through the topics, and for what it’s worth, I don’t see any hostility towards you from anyone on the BuddyPress team. Probably not what you want to hear, and probably not unexpected.
I’ll happily remove access to your account if you’d like to be prevented from using it in the future, but we don’t delete user accounts anywhere on the WordPress.org family of sites.
I’m replying to your emails to Paul now, and it would be great if we speak directly for any issues regarding your account going forward.
@karmatosed, that’s much better… 
@valuser, thanks! That works–but I would change “Admin Only” to what Tammie suggested. The “member” would have to assume that they are the “admin” which isn’t clear. I guess a tooltip would help.
Now, if only it worked for my theme using the Template Pack, too, not just BP Default, that would be awesome!!! One thing at a time…
@juanmaguerrero — the activity-loop is part of the theme, and even if possible, it wouldn’t be appropriate for a plugin to replace it en-masse.
Different themes may implement different activity-loops (different markup, etc.) — so, your code (as a plugin) couldn’t possibly replace successfully in all possible cases.
If it’s not possible to implement your plugin hooking onto pre-existing actions, then perhaps it’s not appropriate as a plugin, and better released as a code snippet, or as part of a new theme.
In fact the entire modifications (not only the preloader.gif) are made in the not-ideally-correct way, since all will be gone with any update. I’m asking for help since weeks ago on https://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/help-at-making-a-plugin-how-to-replace-bp-code/ and now on buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/how-can-i-make-a-custom-activity-loop-into-a-plugin-that-will-replace-the-default-one/ if I can manage to solve that automation I have all the code ready to pack as a plugin with a lot of improvements. @shawn38 do you know how to get this done?
@niaconcepts, it is in the plugins folder. NOT the themes folder. plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default…

I already have the custom activity loop code. Now I just need a function that will replace the entire activity-loop.php template with the one I wrote the code for. Reason I am doing this is so it wont effect updates and if it is in plugin form it could be deactivated and revert back to the original activity-loop.php. I am just not sure how buddypress handles it. Thank ya very much!
I’ve just found out this thread https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/configuring-w3-total-cache-with-buddypress/
Last update was 2 years back. It must be outdated.
anyone wants to add what to enable and what to avoid from plugin settings?
I can add that Browser Cache enabled hides from non logged users groups content.
Thanks @mercime… can you explain what alignment code to change in the template file?
This is a custom site built as a child from the default BP theme.
Hello, I have installed Achievements for BuddyPress, but when I go to create an event there are no dropdown choices. I am using the WP Framework theme (not sure if that matters or not). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
