BuddyPress.org

Yes, I am having the same issue. I have spent many hours researching this.
I have gone through extensive troubleshooting in which I disabled all plugins, scratched my database completely of all bb_ and bp_ tables, removed all bb_ and bp_ references in wp_options, reinstalled BuddyPress – and still not working.
I also reviewed and verified my bp-config and wp-config to verify database, password, db_charset, db_collate settings.
I have also looked at all of the solutions in the following links:

https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/forum-does-not-work

I am down to the option of completely starting from scratch and installing a clean install of WP, and BuddyPress. This will take some time…

I do think it is a bug.

If you find an solution, please post it. Thanks.

Take a look here https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks where the difference between the types of permalink are explained. You have the /index.php/ in your permalink settings.This is probably because your hosting provider needs them for your normal WordPress to work, I notice you have reverted to the default which wont work for Buddypress anyway.

Ask your hosting provider for a rewrite.script file so that you can have ‘pretty permalinks’

Looks like you are using ‘almopst pretty’ permalinks i.e. has /index.php/ at the beginning. BuddyPress insists on ‘pretty permalinks’ you need to get rid of the index.php. If you are using an Apache server this is easy – just take it out. If you are on Zeus for example then you will need a rewrite script.

and the file is called “ning-members-local.json”, as per the error message you’ve posted? Check it is case-sensitive.

have you tried the passing user id to the bp_get_total_group_count_for_user(), do not use bp_total_group_count_for_user(), it just echoes the count.
like
`
bp_get_total_group_count_for_user($user_id);
//or if inside member loop you may o this
global $members_template;
$total_group=bp_get_total_group_count_for_user($members_template->member->id);
`

For using @djpaul ‘s method you need to know group Id. That is best suited when you are on a group page or you know exactly which groups you want to check.

I am having the same issue.
I also deactivated all plugins, wiped and reinstalled BuddyPress, and even dropped all bp_ and bb_ tables from the database.
Still not working. My case is not even a migration of a site to live. This is a site that has only been developed locally on XAMPP.
BP 1.2.8 and WP 3.1 on XAMPP
Any one have any solutions for this yet?

If you’re using BP-Default, you’ll have to edit your theme’s header.php and take out the links, etc. In the next version of BuddyPress (1.3), you’ll be able to create the menus like this easily.

Can you clarify if you have the JSON export of your ning site?

Doesn’t work for WP with buddypress, or ?

Me too.
God I’ve spent a weekend trying to sort our a decent forum:
bbpress would not integrate with my WP database. After a day of trying I gave up!
bbphp just did look right gave that an hour.
buddypress looks functionally good but I tried before to integrate with my Magazine Premium theme but there were too many problems .
Buddypress themes seem few and far between. Most don’t support menus (in their menu bars: not their widgets!).
The ones that do offer compatibility dont run on my site: Detox for the same reason as you and Easybuddy give another PHP error.

Havnt tried it …yet (only soooo many hours in the day!) but I’ve come across Michael Kuhlmans blog http://www.michaelkuhlmann.com/blog/2010/07/08/how-to-add-custom-menus/
who walks you though adding custom menus to the main menus of a buddypress theme.Not saying that’s what you are looking for but may be a good way of pimping a basic theme??

I’ll keep looking.

Good luck

@pjnu How had you installed bbPress for this site? Via the easy click method in BuddyPress?

@imjscn Yeah! I totally agree with you. I had tried to integrate BB to Atahualpa Theme for my http://www.studyguide.com.vn/du-hoc-anh/ site but there were a lot of troubles because of their different structures.

It’s been awhile since I’ve tried out FeedWordPress, but I believe there’s a setting for you to map blog posts to already-created users. You should try that setting out.

I wouldn’t use the “create new users” options in FWP, since any WP user will have a profile in BuddyPress.

Thanks for trying out BuddyPress.

This bug was recently reported here:
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/3087

If your other blog’s theme has its own registration templates, you could try:
myblog.example.com/register

By “own registration templates”, I mean you’d have to copy /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/registration/ to your current blog theme’s folder.

There’s currently no “search_terms” parameter to use in a private message loop:
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-private-messages-loop-bp_has_message_threads/

Sounds like a good enhancement. Can you post it on Trac?

In the meantime, you’d have to write a custom plugin that does this.

Yep, I did some playing around, and figured that out, but definitely good to have my instincts confirmed. I’d been under the assumption that a multisite install actually replicated entire WP installs in different locations, so I was a little stumped – shows how new I am to multisite…thanks very much @mercime, appreciate the help!

For anyone else trying to achieve the same result, I found this article really useful: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/install-buddypress-on-a-secondary-blog/

== I thought all of that was supposed to be under /wordpress/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/members ==

That would be the folder where template files of bp-default theme is located.
If you installed WordPress in /wordpress folder and activated BP in main site then yes, the default url for members directory would look like …/wordpress/members
