@r-a-y ,
Thanks for the code! It’s perfect! Just one question–
I not only moved the Settings but also other nav and sub-nav items, 2 of the sub-nav are added under a newly created nav slug. if a plugin adds a new item in any of the sub tab, can they find the right path? or I need to define some path for them?
Thanks!

“Why do you need APC without much traffic?” —
For me, this is the same qustions as “Why do you need W3TC without much traffic?”

The best solution is the one that works with the situation.

Why do you need APC without much traffic? The reason I mention pilot is it take time to learn how to fly an airplane with a lot of push buttons to scale. I’m just using philosophy example. So have you had an experience check all those features of W3TC and press Preview before Deploy it.

I don’t understand you keep harboring the beat down the dead horse about shared hosting that has no chance to show. I guess you made your mind. Good luck with that without solution for shared hosting.

And one more thing htaccess is important to optimize to cache your site.

Hi anyone!!

I tried to implement the group forum extras plugin on my BP website but I only get this error message in the plugin:! :

Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_forum_extras_blogs_component() in /homez.231/pronobet/www/la-communaute-des-parieurs-en-ligne/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-group-forum-extras/bp-forum-extras-index.php on line 296

It would be nice if you have an advice to solve it please!!

Thanks in advance !

@linkyou, add this to your theme’s css:

`
/* Inherit the default theme styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css );

/* Inherit the default theme adminbar styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css );
`

And put this in your functions.php

`// Load the AJAX functions for the theme
require_once( TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/_inc/ajax.php’ );

// Load the javascript for the theme
wp_enqueue_script( ‘dtheme-ajax-js’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/_inc/global.js’, array( ‘jquery’ ) );

// Add words that we need to use in JS to the end of the page so they can be translated and still used.
$params = array(
‘my_favs’ => __( ‘My Favorites’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘accepted’ => __( ‘Accepted’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘rejected’ => __( ‘Rejected’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘show_all_comments’ => __( ‘Show all comments for this thread’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘show_all’ => __( ‘Show all’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘comments’ => __( ‘comments’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘close’ => __( ‘Close’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘mention_explain’ => sprintf( __( “%s is a unique identifier for %s that you can type into any message on this site. %s will be sent a notification and a link to your message any time you use it.”, ‘buddypress’ ), ‘@’ . bp_get_displayed_user_username(), bp_get_user_firstname( bp_get_displayed_user_fullname() ), bp_get_user_firstname( bp_get_displayed_user_fullname() ) )
);
wp_localize_script( ‘dtheme-ajax-js’, ‘BP_DTheme’, $params );`

Should put styles of the buddypress default theme into your theme. I would go into plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css and remove all the contents of:

`/* > Global Elements

It is compatible with shared.
The missed out stuffs — for example, APC. We can’t install APC on shared hosting. Even if PHP next version include APC as default extention, it will depends on the hosting site enable it or not. Without APC or other caching software, the best of W3TC’s performence has no chance to show.
For the rest of W3TC’s functions, such as minify, loading js,css, CDN, I prefer to do it manually by myself, because I will have more control on it and it’s easier to know where’s the problem if any.
I feel a bit lost at your questions of “How to pilot”.

W3 Total Cache is developed with Dedicate hosting or VPS hosting on mind.

That is not true. W3 Total Cache said, “Compatible with shared hosting, virtual private / dedicated servers and dedicated servers / clusters.”

With a Shared hosting, most of the advantage of W3 Total Cache are missed out.

Can you elaborate what are missed out?

But since my site is under developing

You don’t have much traffic that is what shared hosting is for. Do you know how to pilot? There is a learning curve to optimizing your site.

WP/BP versions of the install that got fatal error? To get better attention of plugin dev for group email subsription, post in this forum https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-group-email-subscription/forum/

What theme are you using – bp-default child theme, custom BP theme or WP theme with BP Template Pack? If you change theme to bp-default theme, do you get a fatal error on activation?

Don’t blame your permissions right away BP Classifieds is compatible up to WPMU 2.9.2 and BP 1.2.1 only. Unless you’re on those versions, expect the plugin to break in current versions as there have been numerous major code changes since plugin was released a year ago.

W3 Total Cache is developed with Dedicate hosting or VPS hosting on mind. With a Shared hosting, most of the advantage of W3 Total Cache are missed out. For this, I left W3 Total Cache.
CloudFlare might be a solution for CDN and Cache. I’m currently on it. But since my site is under developing, I only put another domain (it’s for hosting static contents) on CloudFlare, so I can’t say how much improvement it is.

Thank you @pcwriter, I missed the line about changing core file instead of adding it in functions.php I think I need to get reading glasses.

Slugs: define( 'BP_GROUPS_SLUG', 'teams' );

@ultimateuser

You can get the entire global.js code here: http://pastebin.com/32r9bK8d

Be sure to make a backup copy of your file before replacing it with this just in case stuff breaks!

@tdmc123

Actually, the remove_action code is correct. But you should avoid modifying core Buddypress files if and when possible to prevent having to do everything over again when you upgrade. The code should be added to the functions.php file of a BP child-theme.

To learn how to make your own child-theme, see the codex here: https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

It is correct.

=== When i create activity , members , groups pages from dashboard they work …. now i have 2 of each link on the nav ===

Do not create Pages named activity, members, etc from dashboard. Delete the activity, groups, members, etc. you created as BuddyPress creates those pages on its own, that’s why you see two of each link.

I strongly feel using this documentation you can achieve what you want.
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/group-extension-api/

And this should help you with manipulating navigation items in group , renaming them or removing them. (At midway of page)

And this for custom fields (Not sure how much this will help for groups)

I don’t recommend using of W3 Total Cache.

Have you configured properly? What is your objection of Mashable is using W3 Totlal Cache?

How come Mashable can do it? They have so much HTTP files request and are able to stand out.

I don’t recommend using of W3 Total Cache. When I activate that plugin, js and ajax both stops working on my site.

Event Creators is the role which only has permission to create events. And yes, you can upgrade existing users to that role from wp’s backend.

"Does anyone have an alternative to minify?"

You could do your own minify of all yours CSS styles.

Have you try W3 Total Cache?

Deactivate BuddyPress and BP plugins, change to default twenty ten theme and run Settings > Permalinks and choose option other than default permalinks.
