Hi All,
I think I found the solution and solved this problem. It was BP bug maybe?
It actually similar what @tagtomat mention above.
The steps are quite simple:
1. Go to a group page as Admin
2. Go to group Admin’s link
3. Then “Settings” link
4. Just click “Save Changes” button while the “Enable discussion forum” should be checked.
It seems that previous checked status on “Enable discussion forum” field doesn’t reflect to database or configuration. Hence we should “commit” this setting to confirm and activate the discussion forum feature. I have tested this for about our 40++ new forum setting and it works! Hope it helps!
Thanks!

Thank you very much @mercime. Surprising, as the theme-pack plugin did not copy any of the files to the theme root. Things look ‘almost’ ok for the BP pages. As requested, here are the files:

Really appreciate your time and assistance. Thank you.
What is the best solution currently for a themed login page, BP support and a good captcha on registration?
I’m currently using Theme My Login and si-captcha-for-wordpress.
@pgrinnell different strokes for different themes. Your theme requires changing 16 BP template files for Step 3 of the compatibility process, not adding only 2 files.
If you still want to proceed, then open up your theme’s header.php, copy all, paste all at pastebin.com, click submit, and post the generated pastebin.com URI here. Do the same with your theme’s page.php, index.php, sidebar.php and footer.php
@djpaul here are 2 links, the first is the home site, the second is a test site:


Thank you so much . I deleted the line of code between 329 and 344. Its working fine now and the button is not showing. Only concern is will it effect the rest of the programming eg. add freind, etc.

Good day … I am trying to get things working with BuddyPress using the eNews theme. I’ve tried to adapt some of the solutions offered up for other Elegant Themes themes in this forum but have not resolved the alignment issues. I have copied and created the 3 files header-, sidebar-, and footer-buddypress.php and would truly appreciate some help in incorporating the proper modifications. Thank you.
== Doest it needs Multisite feature enabled? ==
@juanmaguerrero BP Groupblog requires multisite.
If you want to simulate group blog in single WP installation, use http://buddydev.com/plugins/blog-categories-for-groups/ with http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-simple-front-end-post/ for front end posting.
== The navigation menu shows vertical and on my preview it show horizontal. ==
Navigation menu on Appearance > Menu vs. Main Menu on front end? Not sure what you mean, please clarify.
If it’s a bug, or it takes effort, you won’t get an answer for a very long time if ever.
I am currently using a theme from WPExplorer named Quik Gallery 1.0 by AJ Clarke.
I am sorry for my n00bish question but I don’t understand how I can change the layout of the buddypress system. The member and group pages for example are completely out of alignment.
Does anyone have any experience with this theme and are willing to help me work out how to get the layout working.
The header in the default display is not showing the same for me when I activate the theme. The navigation menu shows vertical and on my preview it show horizontal. When I upload my custom header it it showing in duplicate. What can I do to correct this?
The raw solution:
Go to bp-friends/bp-friends-template.php and comment the whole case “is_friend” between line 329 and 344.
The better solution:
rewrite the function bp_get_add_friend_button who contains the switch given in the above solution and put it in your child theme’s function file.
Hi, I just installed and activated the BuddyPress Groupblog plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-groupblog/ but I could not activate. I’m currently running the latest versions of WP/BP but I can’t see any admin options for the plugin. Doest it needs Multisite feature enabled? I searched at the support forums and others are having that issue but no one answers… any help will be welcomed!
Untested, but try this:
`
add_action (‘xprofile_updated_profile’, ‘profile_change_notify’);
function profile_change_notify ($id, $posted_field_ids, $errors) {
$global $wpdb;
if( $errors )
return;
$names = ”;
foreach( (array)$posted_field_ids as $field_id ) {
$sql = ” SELECT name FROM wp_bp_xprofile_fields WHERE id = ‘$field_id’ “;
$name = $wpdb->get_var( $sql );
if( $name == ‘Country’ || $name == ‘City’ )
$names .= ‘ ‘ . $name;
}
if( $names != ” ) {
$user = new WP_User ($id);
wp_mail (‘myname@mydomain.com’, ‘Subject ( ‘ . $user->user_login . ‘ just updated the Profile )’, $names);
}
}
`
When a user updates their profile field “Country” or “City” with a new value, I want to be notified with only the field that has new value. Currently I’m using this but doesn’t tell which fields have been modified:
`add_action (‘xprofile_updated_profile’, ‘profile_change_notify’);
function profile_change_notify ($vars = array ())
{
$user = new WP_User ($vars);
wp_mail (‘myname@mydomain.com’, ‘Subject ( ‘ . $user->user_login . ‘ just updated the Profile )’, ‘Message Body goes here.’);
}`
I appreciate any help..
Hi !
Creating a buddpress multisite for a closed group. They don’t want an option of Cancel Friendship in the site.How can we remove it from the code.
Please help !

Blimey. I’d like to reassure that there’s no conspiracy theory (but I would say that, right?), nor is the BuddyPress.org team ignoring posts on these forums. We are all volunteers, and we only have so much time that we can contribute. This thread is not heading in a constructive direction so I am going to close it.
Mercime’s answer above was good as any. It takes a lot of effort from lots of people to try to prevent spam. This thread talks about user registration spam and activity spam. In our next version of BuddyPress, 1.6, Akismet is integrated into Activity Stream. We have this running on testbp.org and it seems to be doing a decent job at helping.
Hi Paul, sorry missed this and really looking for an answer… no they should be connected, so if someone registers on any of the sites they share the same user database and can move between them all… possible? either that or does buddypress have news themes?
See Registration -> BuddyPress isn’t sending out emails (eg. activation emails, email notifications) https://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/frequently-asked-questions/
BuddyPress Links plugin has not been updated for BP 1.5. To gain access to your wp-admin, you have to disable BuddyPress Links in wp-content/plugins/buddypress-links by renaming the folder to e.g. wp-content/plugins/buddpress-links-xxx
99% of the time, each theme has a unique resolution for Step 3 of the BP Compatibility process. So no, the different codes we posted in https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/ for different WP themes.
Initial scan shows that for your theme, you only need to create two files to make the layout compatible.
sp12, you should be using the Sufusion BuddyPress Pack plugin with the Suffusion theme rather than the BP Template Pack https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/suffusion-buddypress-pack/
Hello,
I am using Buddypress 1.5.5 and was wondering why new users do not get confirmation links in their email when signing up. Is there something I need to setup for this?
