@allentan there’s something awry with your installation if you keep giving me the code for the Group Directory Index when I ask for your Clearphoto theme’s index.php file. Assuming you have the original zipped file of your Clearphoto theme, I suggest that you delete the clearphoto theme in your server via Appearance > Themes > Clearphoto – delete. Then reinstall Clearphoto for a clean slate.
Activate BP Template Pack plugin and go through Appearance > BP Compatibility process. Again, for a clean setup.
Then download BP Template Pack folders in your theme’s folder in server – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration
Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you’d need to use the first option, i.e., change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your Clearphoto theme folder in server during the compatibility process.
Download the 6 clean BP folders to your computer hard drive.
A. At the top of each of those 16 template files I linked to above, replace
`
`
with
`
<?php if ( function_exists('yoast_breadcrumb') ) { yoast_breadcrumb('
‘,’
‘); } ?>
Hi Hugo. That did the trick. Thanks so much for your help, much appreciated.
Just installed BuddyPress a few minutes ago. I want to use BuddyPress as a review option for a wide range of businesses. I will list business A, have the option to review, below that I’ll list business B, option to review etc. Here’s the thing, I want the reviews hidden unless someone clicks ‘read reviews’ or whatever I call it, then have the reviews drop down. Also hope to have ‘hide reviews’ and ‘write a review’ buttons. Not a clue where to start. Hope I’m not on the wrong forum page or something. Thanks for your time.
Okay, I’m trying super hard to not be all frustrated and whatnot, but I’ve been trying to figure this out for a couple of days now, and I can’t tell/find what I’m doing wrong. When I look through the forums, it seems that everyone’s problems happen…alright, let’s start from the beginning.
I just started using WordPress. I installed it this last Friday or Saturday. Very nice, lots of fun, great. I need a forum on my website. I tried bbpress, but it wasn’t working for me. I’d create separate groups but it would desplay all of the posts together. It was super aggravating. After messing with it for six hours yesterday, and not being able to find any help, I deactivated the plug-in and uninstalled it.
So, today I come across BuddyPress, and it sounds awesome. Forums, and networking, and all that? Great! Exactly what I need! I install it, it creates the pages, but they’re blank. Super blank. I’ve increased all of the memory and whatnot, and that did nothing. Plus, even tho it said it installed the forums, it didn’t. There’s no forum options. So then I redownload and install the bbpress forum plug-in, and all of the test posts I had show up, which leads me to believe it never got removed in the first place…I don’t know what to do, it’s not working, and I’d really like it to.
What’s wrong? What am I doing wrong?
Apologise for the confusion. Here is the mapping..

@hnla
The website is hosted off of 1and1.com.
Using wp 3.3.1
and the newest BP ( not sure what version it’s at now )
I used a program called netspark i believe,
( just had to reformat today to linux. Couldn’t stand Windows 7 >.< )
One I get the program installed, I will screen shot the reports of a BP site, and a some other social CMS ( elgg. )
The program pervades full details on why the passwords are being sent over https.
I will also contact other BP sites with their permission and test their site too and take a screen shot of the results.
Don’t get me wrong, Buddypress is one of the BEST plugins for WordPress.
also, I will see if it has something to do with WordPress it’s self.
The reason why im bringing this up is due to the fact that I installed Elgg on a different domain and the passwords were secure.
@ironjade not quite clear on what you mean, could you be more specific as well as give ways for us to replicate the issue. Is this happening on bp-default theme or a custom theme?
@frostdawn suggestion is to upgrade your BP Corporate Theme.
If you feel like tackling the issue yourself, install two plugins: Log Deprecated Notices plugin and the Theme Check plugin. For the first plugin, you will see if there are deprecated template tags with the replacement template tags after a minute or so.
For Theme Check, take care of the results posted with “Warnings” and “Required” items if any. No need to worry about the “Recommended” or “info” issues. if any
How were they sent then?
To be honest this question you pose is more to do with you perhaps first having an understanding of protocols and how they work and what part applications that run on servers have in that process.
I’m not trying to put you off the discussion, but this is not really an issue with buddypress unless you can come to us with some explanation of how in your tests you have arrived at the possible conclusion that bp is not secure in some fundamental way.
#1) – If the user clicks on the date of an activity item re a blog post, the user is brought to the single blog post .
– If the user clicks on the date of an activity item re a forum topic, the user is brought to the forum topic page
– If the user click clicks on the date of other activity items, the user is brought to members/single/activity/permalink.php page. You could add HTML structure just after get_header as well as just before get_footer.
#2) You can tackle that by adding something this at the bottom of your stylesheet:
`div.activity-header p a.activity-time-since {
clear: left;
float: left;
margin-left: 15px;
margin-top: -30px;
}
.activity-inner > p:first-child {
margin-top: 20px;
word-wrap: break-word;
} `
Adjust to taste
@boonebgorges since this patch was implemented by you, could you take a minute to help me out with this?
@djpaul
Sorry for saying that BP was not secure.
I’ve installed other social networks and also tested them.
(elgg, dolphin) and no passwords were sent over https..
so my question is, how would I make the passwords not be sent over https.
I am trying to add a custom link with dropdowns to the buddypress admin bar, how can I do this? Do you have a snippet of code?
This is the code I have so far, but can not make dropdowns work:
<?php
// custom functions for tweaking BuddyPress
function custom_adminbar_dashboard_button() {
// adds a "Dashboard" link to the BuddyPress admin bar if a user is logged in.
if (is_user_logged_in()) {
echo '<li><a href="/wp-admin/">Dashboard</a></li>';
}
}
add_action('bp_adminbar_menus', 'custom_adminbar_dashboard_button', 1);
?>
Can any of more advanced users point me in the right direction. need to edit some core files for a complex project I’m working on …. I need to find the Activity Filter Content files to add extra activity types and filters also implement “curl” for link sharing like on FB … there are few filters and hooks but that is not working out for the thing I’m working on.so far, I’ve developed a better oembed features to display images and extra stuff eg: title , time , thumbnails instead of videos directly… like on g+ or FB for better performance.Now I’m working on a yt / vimeo video search and post integration, so It would really help to speed up the process if someone can point me in the right direction…. Thanks in advance !
@mercime
your code has ‘locustfist’ in there a couple of times; was that intended?
Thanks for answering, but that is not what i am looking for. I would like to hide the adminuser from buddypress, not just from some lists. Isn’t it possible to take him out of the system? The admin doesn’t needs a profile etc., just access to the admin-area and the control of the system. He shouldn’t appear in any list and the name should not be public.
Has anyone an idea? Maybe i caould change something in the wp-core, but where?
@cornerstonecooking Not sure why it’s happening on your install, but please post at bbPress forums to resolve this issue as this is regarding the bbPress plugin albeit integrated with BP https://bbpress.org/forums/ log in with same username and password used here
@locustfist To remove “Members” tab on Group Pages, per @boonebgorges BP 1.5 update: add the following to your theme’s functions.php
`function locustfist_remove_group_member_tab() {
bp_core_remove_subnav_item( bp_get_current_group_slug(), ‘members’ );
}
add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘locustfist_remove_group_member_tab’, 15 );`
To get rid of the member count of the Group Directory Page
– download groups-loop.php from here
– change line #61 from ` / ` to “ thereby removing the member count
– upload groups-loop.php to your server wp-content/themes/your-theme-folder/groups/groups-loop.php
@allentan Next time, please identify which pastebin links to which theme file.
Confirm – the 1st paste is header.php, the 3rd paste looks like index.php, the 4th paste looks like sidebar.php and the 5th paste is footer.php. Your 2nd paste is BP Groups Index page which I don’t need.
Where is the paste for page.php file? If you want to use full-width, post code for the full-width page. If you want to you left or right sidebar, please post code of your preference.
Hello, I have buddypress up and running with forums and it’s working fantastic. I have just one issue.
On my main forums page, I can’t figure out how to get the topic count to update. For example, here is my page listing all my forums:
http://www.cornerstonecooking.com/forums/
The second forum (Cornerstone recipes) says it has two topics but there is really only one. I created a topic in that forum and then deleted it but the count still shows 2 topics. While this isn’t a huge deal, I can imagine it getting confusing as forums grow.
I even permanently deleted the topic in the wordpress admin section thinking that might do it. Still no luck.
Is there some reason why this count isn’t updating normally?
Thanks!
Probably you are calling the function before the javascript is loaded. .bind(‘load’) is also a non-standard method of hooking javascript into a page, and I’m not exactly sure when that event fires. I suggest you try changing to that to http://api.jquery.com/ready/, and maybe it will fix the javascript problem.
BuddyPress was originally built for WPMU. For some reason, we’ve got a bunch of username registration code inside BuddyPress itself (we should let WordPress take care of that) — which was based on WPMU — which is why this restriction exists, even one single-site BuddyPress.
Keep an eye on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4057
@mercime Thank you for the information.
Hello all,
I have a site that was running an older version of Buddypress and WordPress, using the Viewport theme that features a slider. You can see it here: http://particularlyevil.com
After upgrading to the latest WordPress and Buddypress versions, my slider is broken. You can see that here: http://dev.particularlyevil.com
I’ve seen this jquery conflict issue come up a number of times with sliders and such, and was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to fix it. Thanks!
