@alienjackhammer, look no further than https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-easy-albums-photos-video-and-music/

You can achieve right what you are looking for. Here is an Image of Easy Albums https://s.w.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-easy-albums-photos-video-and-music/screenshot-5.jpg?r=316117. Trust Me, It is what you are looking for

Oh, @alienjackhammer, my dear, there are 2 great plugins that would end your search!

https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-easy-albums-photos-video-and-music/

That plugin allows you to insert your album’s pictures right into your status updates!

Another great plugin: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-album/

@robert, If this happened just recently, there is a high chance that there is a conflicting plugin. It is usually not the php file that is incorrect. First, try deactivating all plugins that relate to buddypress, and see if the problem persists. (deactivating will not delete settings)

If you have done that, and it is still not working, try installing the BP template pack again. This will recreate the template files, such a groups, into your custom theme again.

You can get all the styling for you custom theme in /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/inc/css/default.css

In order for it to take affect in your theme you need to add “/* Inherit the default theme styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css );” into your custom css page.

Oops.. I was confused between two installations. The plugin that resolved this issue for me is WP-Mail-SMTP

Install plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/ resolved this issue for me. Thanks Ishimwe.

@gunju2221 Don’t bump your posts more than once every 24 hours, please.

@matiaspunx, Usually it will list the username, unless it is a private message.

It would surely be possible if you took the code of the (function ‘show user avatar’) ‘buddypress’)), and placed it in the adminpar php file, it would show up.

I would highly recommended seeking a professional web builder, because it requires going to to the Buddypress Core Elements, and would take some expert styling on avatar size, due to dropdown menu.

@liesl1698 Are you talking about a Facebook Notification Functionality?

If yes, sorry, unless you are an expert at html code functions, that is not an option at the moment. The Notifications feature is for private messaging, and community functions. There may be a plugin in the near future.

@superfifi, are you talking about an activity comment in buddypress, or a blog post comment? Blog comments you should automatically get an email. For activity comments, If might be possible for that to be possible via plugin, but I do not know if it exists off the top of my head. You might want to go searching.

i’d just want to see if everything is clean (no picture forbidden);

I am not quite understanding what you are saying by that.

@robert,

To help solve your problem, you need to list some more information.

Are you using the Buddypress default theme, or a custom theme?
What version of Buddypress are you using?
Has this problem always been there, or just recently?

@kkeller22,From viewing your site, it may look like you have not enabled some features in the WP-Admin.

Is the “Extended Profiles” enabled in your “Component Setup” In Wp-Admin? Do you have Buddypress Template Pack Plugin Installed? (if not using default theme)

If it is, always check for plugins that may be causing the problem. If that is not it, tell me, and we can work on going inside the html structure of your website

@michael,The 404 errors tell you that the buddypress contents have not been correctly transfered. Did you complete the Buddypress Template Pack Steps? (e.g templates)

If you have, try manually bringing the files over to your new server via FTP, or any other hosts you use.

@progressiveimpact,Try the plugin “Buddypress Announce Group” https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-announce-group/

It is a group where anybody can see, but only admins can post content.

gunju2221,

Well at least it looks like you’re really, maybe, starting to get somewhere with the problem now. After you figure all of that out, and if still needed, locating the file within GoDaddy hosting still holds true, it will just likely be located in the “html” folder (or your “doc_root” in layman’s terms, as mercime so sarcastically points out). I didn’t catch the meat of the first page of the post before I replied so my baddie. The big file that you were referring to where the config file may reside just looks to be your absolute hosting path, which I would assume is on GoDaddy’s shared-hosting.

and…

Try not to take things so personally guys and gals. I was in direct contact with Andy Peatling well over a year ago discussing the possibilities of BuddyPress, and I’ve been using WordPress for many, many years now. I’m certainly not an expert on it all, and I don’t claim to be. I just happened by and saw a situation that I thought I could be of help with as I’ve had experience with GoDaddy’s hosting, and I’ve been on the BuddyPress boards many times before, just not to post, so “just everyone cool out” (as Will Ferrell’s version of Neil Diamond would say). I look like the new guy on the block. I get it, don’t worry. My original post still stands though, and I must always remember to heed it’s advice myself as well.

By the way, I did notice that too… The need to probably want to replace the MySQL database info, Auth keys and so forth. I wondered why that was showing there in such a public forum. I’d personally now consider my install compromised and change that info asap.

Thanks @Travel-Junkie
I have signed up on your ShabuShabu.eu site under the email sharpmarketing @gmail.com

Please reply to the question when you get a minute.

1. What format does the Business Location have to be entered to display properly? Is there a way to show a map for this step so the user can select their location on a map. I have the register page with a location field and have selected that page in Mapology settings: http://businessmaps.ca/register/

2. How do I display a map on the homepage with all the users “pins”

Thanks,

Tyler & Craig

@gunju2221 what I wrote is the same thing that @hnla said, at doc_root in layman’s terms
Paste content of your bb-config.php at http://buddypress.pastebin.com/ and post the generated pastebin URL back here.
P.S. Why are you using @hotforwords‘ avatar? A fan?

@inkblottest said: `Then click on the “plugins” folder. Then click on the “buddypress” folder (this is where all files and folders related to BuddyPress reside as it is truly just really a robust, and wonderfully awesome, plugin). Then click on the “bp-forums” folder. You will then see the bb-config.php file.`

Actually, the bb-config.php file generated via internal forum installation by BuddyPress is located by default at the root of domain/subdomain/subdirectory where you installed WordPress. In other words, bb-config.php is at the very same level where you normally find wp-config.php file and the wp-content, wp-admin, and wp-includes folders. But thank you for trying to help out.

Edit- hnla, you type fast

@inkblottest firstly thank you for attempting to help out on this thread – the config file needs to reside in the doc_root though.

Secondly I can see why you felt the last paragraph was justified but I draw issue with many of it’s points and I’ll address them later but not on this thread as it will take it off topic – oh and I’m also a tech veteran and with considerable experience working on technical forums catering to both experienced and inexperienced

gunju2221,

After logging into your account directly from the GoDaddy.com website, or the GoDaddy hosting control panel (https://hostingmanager.secureserver.net/Login.aspx), go to the Hosting Control Center and choose the File Manager that brings up all of the files in your hosting account. The “html” folder should be first to come up already opened and will house all of your site’s content. Next click on the “wp-content” folder. Then click on the “plugins” folder. Then click on the “buddypress” folder (this is where all files and folders related to BuddyPress reside as it is truly just really a robust, and wonderfully awesome, plugin). Then click on the “bp-forums” folder. You will then see the bb-config.php file. I believe that is the one you are in search of, no? You can’t access this through the wp-admin on your website. It must be done through an FTP client, cpanel, or as I have described above.

I know it’s irritating when a problem arises and holds you hostage while you pull out your hair looking for the solution, but instead of continuing the “bump” business, and further irritating the folks here, you can always try searching out your questions about WordPress/BuddyPress in Google, Bing, blogs, and other forums and so forth. I’ve literally found the answers to a majority of my past questions elsewhere than on here, though BuddyPress.org and it’s community is the obvious authority on all things BuddyPress. That’s certainly no slight on the terrific community of developers and volunteers here on BuddyPress, it’s just a fact. It is getting better though as time goes on.

The rest of the BuddyPress community,

A polite suggestion to the folks on here trying to answer questions that people have who aren’t quite as familiar with the product as you; Treat it like a car. Generally speaking, people don’t really need to know how it works, they just want to know how to drive it. Keep it simple, and forget about all of the tech jargon and mumbo-jumbo. For the location of the “bb-config.php” file, spell it out in the most direct and simplest of terms that you can muster, like I did above with a direct path to the file (think picture book). That’s it. It shouldn’t matter where your installation is hosted at as the basic files should all reside in the same place, unless you’ve moved them yourself after the install. This suggestion comes from a tech veteran who’s worked in IT over the past 20 years – mainframes, networking, hardware, software, web, etc.

@gunju2221 When I’ve had this problem in the past, it’s been because either the forum corresponding to a group didn’t get created, or the forum_id for the group didn’t get saved in the groupmeta table at the time of group creation (or whenever you enabled forums in that group). It looks like you are using a couple of plugins that tap into group creation (Group Control, Documents, Reviews, Email Subscription, etc.). Try temporarily deactivating them, and then *creating a new group with forums enabled*, and then posting in that forum. If it works, then you’ll have to pick through those plugins to see which one is causing the problem.
