BuddyPress.org

@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

---

*/
/* > Admin Bar

---

*/
/* > Header

---

*/
/* > Navigation

---

*/
/* > Container

---

*/
/* > Sidebar

---

*/
/* > Content

---

*/`

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.

@gunju2221 OK, didn’t see indentation at all in FF and Chrome but finally saw what you meant when I opened Safari.
Checked what could have caused that – like open UL or what. Adding backticks around `

I have a VERY similar issue. Got excited on finding this topic but then disappointed to find that it’s not answered…c’est la vie!

@mercime, it’s because the @mention was after the excerpt on the profile activity stream. It’s weird.

Notice how our posts are somewhat indented?
