Not sure where to start with this, but the `-2-2` problem reminds me of https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2642. Note that that ticket had to do with a very specific problem which is, I think, different from yours in the details, but may have the same root issue. As an experiment, try commenting out the following line in `bp-members/bp-members-functions.php`:
`add_action( ‘pre_user_login’, ‘bp_core_strip_username_spaces’ );`
I have found two problems with “My Favorites” tabs:
#1:
The drop down list filter (everything, updates, posts, comments, etc) on “My Favorites” tab doesn’t seem to work. It always show all my favorite activities. The filter with other tabs (“All Members”, “My Friends”, “My Groups”, “Mentions”) do work.
#2:
Even when the activities have been deleted, the count with “My Favorites” remain the same. For example, there were 6 favorites but 1 was deleted by the owner. When the “My Favorites” tab is clicked, the loop shows 5 activity post, but the number on the tab is still 6.
Are those two buddypress bugs?
I checked buddypress code:
buddypress/bp-activity/bp-activity-templates.php
line # 361:
$include = implode( ‘,’, (array)$favs );
The include was set with the favorite, that’s why it’s always there no matter what filter is picked. I can put some code here to solve problem #1, but is there a better way? It’s not a good option to change the core code.
Can someone help?

In the last week I have put up my new site at http://fanart.tv previous to that buddypress wasn’t installed.
Had massive load problems, with no apparent reason, so in the end I disabled every single plugin and started slowly re-adding them, everything is ok until I enable buddypress, then the loads start creeping up, at around 70% I can no longer do anything,, kill the site, restart it login before the load goes too high and disable buddypress, the loads go down and stay aroun 1%.
Really like buddypress (was my favourite part of the new site) so hoping there is something I can do to get it re-enabled with out killing the server (and losing my hosting, lol)
Anyone have any ideas?
We have job postings and different user roles running on a couple of our BuddyPress based websites.
Essentially though, it’s a task that requires a skilled developer, rather than being a simple configuration.
You’ll need a bespoke build – in our case, we have our own custom post types for jobs, use WordPress user roles & capabilities to differentiate between user types, and ‘hook’ them in to BuddyPress as a new component. For the bells and whistles, we also integrate payments and cron jobs to monitor and tidy up when job ads expire.
or is their any plugin that could synchronize between buddypress and different installations of WP.
It should push WP posts to the buddypress.
That’s nice…but I need it now:)
Can I just take info from one database table and import into new table? I did’t have chance to study it yet. but any advice in this direction will come in handy…
OK, now I reverted all the database tables I edited, and the problems remains. There must be something wrong with the installation then.
What is the best thing for me to do? Remove buddypress completely and install it once more?
Hello all you good people,
I need to have one common buddypress network over ten separate installations of wordpress.
Is this possible ?
Ive worked with Joomla, Drupal, and tested pretty much ALL CMS, I found buddypress is easy to config. (once you learn your way around it.)
As for as the global blog, I found a plugin that allows front page posting ( you could put this in a page as Post a Job listing, and acually make a custom page to display different types of jobs. (ex, computers, part time, full time) and have that as a required option for the blog posting.
I wish you best of luck to your site! 
Sorry for the late reply.
I built a page template for the activity page (activity page as the home page) using a IF user is logged in locate template mustlogin.php
I took the login bar from the buddypress widget and placed it in the template.
Same thing with the /register page.
Also, I tested a recent buddypress site and the passwords weren’t sent over https.
the problem was I created a template.
Once I get time I’ll dig more into it and place the codes of the mistake.
I will have them posted by tomorrow if you want.
@hnla
Appreciate that @yadigit
I really like what I’ve seen so far, but I haven’t been able to configure buddypress exactly for what I want. Maybe I haven’t got a good enough handle on how it works yet.
I have spent a couple days looking for a plugin that would give me something like that, but haven’t found one. Also I haven’t found a way that I can have a global blog and allow some members to be able to post to it or a plug in that will allow members to upload documents (just work on group docs together or upload other rich media).
I’m interested in continuing to work with buddypress and find a fun project to do something with it, but for this project I’m leaning towards Joomla! with a job component (built in integration for recruitment sites w/ features like resume builder etc…)
Hopefully someone makes something like this for Buddypress soon – maybe one day I’ll be able to!
Seems like a very promising platform, but perhaps the programming community needs to catch up to it’s potential.
Thanks again for your suggestion.
Buddypress is always the right way to go.
I do suggest buddypress.
In your case I would use a plugin that allows users to pick a group to join during registering.
1) Employer
2)Job seeker
From there you can enable forums in the group that will act as posting for employers.
That’s just a quick though off the top of my head.
Buddypress if the quickest and fastest way to do something like that.
I wouldn’t suggest any other way.
ok, seriously stumped on this one. visited a bunch of sites that tell you how to change the admin bar, and looked at base BuddyPress files and have no idea how to add site-wide notifications to the BuddyBar. Anyone have any clues?
Hi i hope i am posting this in the right section. I am looking for a way to allow users from a email site to be able to sign up and login using their info from that site like as if i was using a fb connect plugin with my WordPress buddypress set up. me and the owner of the email site have been searching for a answer on the net or even looked at a few fb connect plugins seeing it it was just a quick switch of some info to make this work but nothing. i think if some one even wanted to take the time to make a universal pluggin that allowed two site to link up like this and act like the fb connect plugins it would be very useful esp for any one who even has a multitude of sites and not all of them are WordPress related and allow their user base to have just one login to access mulitpal sites.
There is something wrong with your register page as, I think, it should have Name ( at least ) as a required field under the profile details section.
If I click on ‘complete sign up’ without filling anything in then it redirects to the front page whearas I think it should stay on the same page but with error messages.
Is https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/page-links-to/ the plugin that you mentioned in the other topic?
I wonder if it is compatible with buddypress. Buddypress is quite particular about it’s permalinks….. If you disable page-links-to, do you get the profile details content on the register page then?
It could be something else to do with permalinks and the .htaccess file that should be in the same directory as the wp-config.php file.
The usual method for diagnosing issues is to disable all plugins and revert to bp-default. If it then works one can start to reactivate plugins and theme until something goes wrong – ie the last thing you reactivated would be the chief suspect!
Hi @aces
I have tried, but it doesn’t work. Is there any files which i need to change?
Regards
I have installed buddypress and am getting familiar with it, but I’m starting to wonder if it will do what I need.
Basically I’m starting a job recruitment site and want members to be able to choose between being employer of job seeker upon registration. I want employers to be able to post jobs to global blog and want job seekers to be able to set up a profile for themselves and search job postings.
any help is much appreciated!
cheers,
Coming up sometime soon https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3598 so if you have numerous postings already in your group forums, you might want to use group forums first and wait for the official way to safely move group forums (BP internal bbPress) to sitewide forums (bbPress the plugin)
The other thread is here:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/new-user-is-listed-fifteen-times-in-member-directory/
But you confirm it’s NOT a theme issue, so there is larger issue at work here
.htaccess checks out as ok, permalinks re-freshed, no plugins running that might possibly affect things even if remotely so.
This theme isn’t a BP compatible one is it? Have you run the BP template pack plugin to adapt the theme for use with BP?
Have you visited the permalink page to ensure that your permalink cache is refreshed
Maybe a little background will help… originally, I was not able to delete a group, most likely due to the same issue, since it required data submission (which BP seems to be blocking) and so I went into the database and simply deleted the few records in the following tables:
wp_18_bp_groups
wp_18_bp_groups_groupmeta
wp_18_bp_groups_members
But I was told this was fine and didn’t affect anything in BP. Doesn’t seem like this would be it though since I wasn’t able to delete the group before using the BP Delete group form.
BuddyPress is just not accepting any data input at all. It’s as if it’s being blocked and the same page just reloads every time you do anything, create a group, delete a group, register, edit profile… nothing can be submitted at all.
Ok, that is weird, well one thing at a time I suppose, in firefox can you register an account on that page? I’m afraid that if I try to re-install BuddyPress it’s just going to do the same thing.
Can you register an account in Firefox?? And what would cause all BP submission forms to reload the same page after clicking the button?
I may have been trying something, here is the link and its now on the default buddypress theme with plugins disabled:

Hi! I’ve just graduated from university and this is my first project!
So basically i’m trying to integrate buddypress on to my twenty eleven which has been modified a bit in design.
I’ve installed BP Compatibility pack as well but it doesnt really help other than fixing the layout a bit.
No u cant write any comments, no favourites, and no filters as well.
I believe it’s because the ajax and jquery is not being called in the website.
Really need help please! Thanks so much!
