Ah yeah, I got rid of buddypress from my ftp. Deadline is too close for me to keep trying to mess with it.
The members loop has a type called ‘random’
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-members-loop/
So you will want to change bp_has_members() within members/index.php to
“
Sorry, missed your replies…
“Since we are speaking of tabs, how do I change places, for example: the subnav Edit from Profile tab to the Settings tab?”
bp_core_sort_subnav_items() should help.
You can change how many posts show up from the user with `’posts_per_page’ => 10,` (i would tell you how to do pagination, but WordPress makes those things a pain in the butt when your not on a ‘wordpress’ page).
@jetgirlart looks like you’ve resolved your server error issue. The wp-admin/index.php correctly redirects to wp-login.php when I checked.
== why the report bug page is not working in site ==
You need to log-in again in trac with same username and password
== our forums problem still not fix. please help ==
@abbas667 start your own topic.
When asking for support, include WP/BP versions, theme used, plugins installed, single WP or multisite, Linux/Windows hosting, WP installed in domain root or subdirectory,
Did you go through the Installation Wizard after activating BuddyPress?
Did you change to bp-default and deactivate other plugins?
If you deleted bbPress forum tables in database, did you also delete bb-config.php file in root so you can re-start installation of the Group Forums?
You can either filter the actions directly, for activity_updates theirs the ‘bp_activity_new_update_action’ filter.
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.5/bp-activity/bp-activity-functions.php#L879
New_Member = bp_core_activity_registered_member_action
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.5/bp-members/bp-members-signup.php#L534
New_blog_post = bp_blogs_activity_new_post_action
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.5/bp-blogs/bp-blogs-functions.php#L195
etc.
Or; you can filter the templates – with ‘bp_get_activity_action’ (best if you don’t need to edit the output directly but want to add a line break after every action. etc)

@ChrisClayton Could you help me with these two post up??
== when a reader (not logged in) goes to the groups page, there is a button that says “Create a member group” ==
@b1gft No. That button should not be there if user is not logged and if Site Admin disables creation of groups by members.
@1337h4nd WP/BP versions? What theme are you using? Linux/Windows hosting? Single WP or Multisitie? If changing to bp-default theme didn’t work, have you tried deactivating plugins except BuddyPress and resetting permalinks? I’ve seen two instances where that happened and both were due to themes which have not been updated to latest BP versions.
I am in the process of creating a free cancer awareness group for all types of cancer and this group would include people who have lost someone to cancer and anyone who is a cancer survivor. I am still in the early stages of developing it and this what I would like the discussion group to include:
Each member would have their own page to talk about themselves and/or the person that have lost
Many different cancer discussion groups
A cancer survival groups or one for each specific cancer
A place to share information
meet other members on line
As the moderator I would like to be able to track the members and the dates that they lost the love one – send them a card or kind message.
I would like to do that same thing with the members that have survived cancer
I am looking for an easy theme to use for this purpose and who love any other suggestions.
Thank you very much for reading this.

@capnmarrrrk This is now about microglobalscope.org, right?
== So the structure is Microglobalscope.org with there being another network site at /sydney ==
Sanity check. You mean you installed WP at domain root Microglobalscope.org and made it multisite (network). Then you created a physical subdirectory and installed WP there as well and created another network?
And what do you mean by “microglobalscope.org/sydney which does the same thing as the test site. with the redirect.”? What redirect and why?
Can’t be said often enough, backup DB before upgrading and watch out for WP and add-on BP plugin compatibility as well.
@djpaul great news, so Buddypress 1.6 must be awesome. Yes, I tried to install Super Cache now on BB 1.5 and get some bugs.
BP Profile Search and BP Automatic Friends not showing up in BP Admin Menu.
I have BP 1.5.5 and WP 3.2.2 with Network setup. I have BP setup on subdirectory using a compatible theme. ( I have same setup on test site not network configured and plugins work.)
1. The BP plugin is Network Activated. (This plugin is only available through network admin.)
2. To get BP Admin on the subdirectory I had to create a bp-custom.php file and included the code “define ( ‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true );”
3. wp config php.
define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false);
define(‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true);
define( ‘MULTISITE’, true );
define( ‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, false );
$base = ‘/’;
define( ‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘neosoulcafe.com’ );
define( ‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’ );
define( ‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );
define( ‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );
4. bp-custom.php
<?php
// hacks and mods will go here
define( ‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true );
define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 22 );
define( ‘BP_SILENCE_THEME_NOTICE’, true );
define ( ‘BP_ENABLE_ROOT_PROFILES’, true );
?>
5. Network Activated Plugins
Buddypress
Buddypress Album (did not show up on subdirectory plugins)
6. Sub Directory Activated Plugins
Buddypress Activity Plus
Invite Anyone
RS Buddypress Activity Referesh
Deactivating these plugins did not resolve issue.Tired to network activate plugins BP Profile Search and BP Automatic Friends and that did not work also. It appears that plugins requiring access to the BP Admin menu do not work in a network config.
In the interim is there a file that I can edit to add a default friend for all members.
Thanks
@djpaul, @mercime Hi, Thanks again for your help. This issue is still unresolved. Could one of you (or anyone) please swing back by and assist? This is a fairly major issue for me. Thanks.
Hi,
I haven’t been able to find anything on this issue. I’m guessing it will require getting into the programming.
If you look at the screenshot of my forum page below, you can see the ‘follow this topic’ button at the bottom is cut in half. So, I either want to fix it so the entire button shows or, as there is the same button at the top of the post as well, remove it. No idea how to do either. Any help would be appreciated.
I’m using the latest versions of wordpress and buddypress and the theme is Frisco.
Thanks in advance.

Whenever I try to place a story or something in my post and it’s longer then 7000 words It won’t post or i get an error. This issues happens with buddypress docs, bb group forums and simple press. Is there a way to resolve this. I assume it’s a wordpress issue, so does anyone know how to extent the 7000 words limit
Thanks for the help
1. WordPress (without BP) only has three required fields for members – username, email and password. On the BuddyPress registration form these are required fields. it also requires a name and any other required fields you choose to add to the base group.
2. The best place to find documentation is within the code. Not exactly what you wanted to hear, but theirs not really anything as in-depth as you can find within the comments scattered throughout it.
Afew months ago Diaspora (the ruby-based social networking opensource project) released what they call ‘intelligent post page templates’ but did you know, it’s 10 times easier to implement in BuddyPress?
This is a snippet that i’ve had in my snippets folder for a while and i only recently remembered it when i saw a post about diaspora’s update.
Within members/single/permalink.php just replace “ with
“
and then if you want a different template for single permalink views for BP Album photos, just create a new /activity/entry.php template called /entry-bp-album-picture.php and modify to your hearts content… All BP album photos will now use that template and others will just use /entry.php.
Credits where credits due: This is based on Twenty Eleven’s Post-type Loop template_part. Thanks WordPress!
EDIT: Note that str_replace just replaces the underscores inside the activity types to hyphens (works without the str_replace, but i like the consistent look with other templates that use hyphens to separate words)
Thanks for the suggestion @shanebp but it didn’t seem to work. I think its because its missing the globe call for `global $pictures_template;`
Any ideas how to tie this in?
Cheers
When a major release (such as 3.4) of WordPress is released you should be wary of updating WordPress if BuddyPress has not been updated yet as their are usually major changes.
When WordPress releases Minor releases (such as 3.3.2) it’s very rare that their will be any breakages as they are primarily used to repair bugs and fix security issues.
I personally wait an hour or two after a minor release for the core devs to do some last minute testing before i upgrade my sites (the BP devs are pretty quick to get a release out if something does break.)
How do I remove all members count from my main page of Buddypress?
If I can ask the opposite. I see WP have an update at the moment. Should we update WP when we see there is an update available. I would be worried the BP installed (I have the latest one) will not work with the newest WP.
Are you still at ixwebhosting? I just set up a new BP install there. Edit – Deactivate plugins via FTP by renaming plugin folder and change automatically to Twenty Eleven by renaming the folder of the theme you were using when you activated BuddyPress.
