Any updates or suggestions? Anybody?
Your PHP script memory limit may be too low, if you have access to php.ini see what value is set for memory limit and if around 32mb try upping it to around 96mb or even 128mb, or check the bp codex for other means of changing the value through wp-config.
I’m looking in the buddypress directory and in the theme’s members/single folder, there is a blogs.php.
What is this for? Also, how do you set up blogs for each user?
Thanks for the reply, @djpaul. The only thing I’ve seen recently was for something called BP Group-O-Matic but that seems only to assign groups to join for people that search for a topic.
Ok, I think I may have found it: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-groups-extras/
That seems like it would be my next choice to use if I can’t find something exactly like Extended Profiles. While that allows the creation of more custom fields, it leaves the types of fields up to the user. I’m looking to be able to, as the admin, create the custom fields that are available to all groups, in the same fashion as the Extended Profiles custom fields.
I’ll look into this one a bit more.
Created bp-custom.php added “define ( ‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true );”
Activity page, Forum page and Register page redirects to homepage ( http://www.example.com/site1).
Using a wordpress multisite install with main site http://www.example.com… buddypress is network activated. Completed the buddypress install on http://www.example.com/site1. Using a BP compatible theme.
Other BP pages, Site Tracking, Groups, Members and Activate work fine. In addition Members page shows all network users 
Tried another theme also tried to deactivate/activate BP. Cruising the forums
Thanks in advance..
I have a problem where I cannot add any new plugins to my WordPress / BuddyPress website. Through a process of illimination, I’ve determined that its the BuddyPress plugin causing this. With all other plugins disabled (besides BuddyPress), and the default theme active, as soon as I try and activate a new plugin I get a blank screen. I need to then delete the new plugin files via FTP before I get access to the site again. This happens with all plugins I try and install. As soon as I disable BuddyPress, I can hapily install and activate new plugins but then when I activate BuddyPress again, I get a blank screen. I really hope someone could help with this. Any help will be massively appreciated.
Thanks,
Justin.
Thanks @mercime
Where do I get that permalink file? I took a look in the BuddyPress folder and the default theme, but couldn’t see it there.
@djpaul , i can confirm that this bug is still there and am using the latest bp. not 1.6
Hello all, is this plugin compatible with buddypress? If no is there another way to stream the data from other sites to profile area.
Thanks a lot.
1. I’m fine with losing that top header/title thing at the top. It’s one of the things I’m thinking about taking out entirely anyway.
2. Yes. I’d like to keep the sidebar.
Related notes:
I’ll be making some tweaks to the layout to make more room for the main content column that the Buddypress stuff will be in to have more room, and so it fits on a 1028 width screen. But yes, I need the Buddypress area to fit into the main content column, and since it sounds like this creation of two files (header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php) option would be less buggy with BP upgrades, that seems like the safer bet for someone of my poor coding skills. Once it all just works, I should be able to do any CSS mods necessary to make it all look cohesive enough.
Much thanks for the help.
@horroruk and @abac1000, you’re missing the permalink.php file or have not made it compatible with BuddyPress by changing the HTML structure per compatibility process. After revision, permalink.php should be uploaded to your theme’s folder in your server and following directory structure like so, wp-content/themes/yourthemename/members/single/activity/permalink.php
The http://dethuletræ.dk/forums/forum/forum-2/ goes to 404 page. Did you previously create the additional category and topic from the backend or frontend?
Before anything else, to prevent the blank pages and 404’s on BP pages, you need to make your WordPress theme compatible with BuddyPress by installing and activating the BP Template Pack plugin then go through Appearance > BP Compatibility https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
@udotorg two things before we begin with transformation, based on layout in Pages like the About page here http://templatesden.com/TF/WPCMS/denizen/about-us/
:
1. The BP pages title won’t have the same look as the title “About Us” in link above
2. Do you still want the right sidebar included in the layout?
Let me know.
@tcbroonsie I have had no problems upgrading from single WP to WP multisite with BP already installed. That said, always back up database and server files before making major changes to your installation like so. That way, you can revert to single WP with your htaccess, wp-config.php, and DB backups if something goes awry. As the saying goes, if anything can go wrong, it will.
Also, if you want to be “extra” careful, deactivate all plugins and change to Twenty Eleven before upgrading to multisite.
i made a page for blog but hmm i cant seen to make it activate, so whats next how am i to make the blog section show am i missing something -sighs- or do i need to have it sectioned off from the bpress. i can still make post but there’s no blog section even for the user sidebar menu, and its got blog in it http://imveeu.com/imveeusocialmedia/ I think I did a heck of a job with it really, I had to mod one of the plugins to send users to reg page but hey its working. it was the private community plugin Version 1.0.4 By Dennis Morhardt plugin name Private BuddyPress, i had modified it to set up for the system had to it refused to let me go reg kept redirecting me back to login but its all good i fixed it. but any way just need help on the blog section please -ahm-
All mine are correct and identical but no dice. Anything else?
Missed the status thingy
. Thank you @travel-junkie
Cheers.
== as soon as I mad the site MultiSite, it still has the BuddyPress registration form, but the users aren’t being added to the main site as members, just the network membership. ==
That’s the default WP way when you go multisite even if BuddyPress is deactivated. To get assistance regarding this matter, you should post at Multisite forums https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite
@allentan Open up your clearphoto theme’s header.php file, copy all, and paste at pastebin.com, click submit and post the generated URL here. Do the same for your clearphoto’s index.php, page.php, sidebar.php and footer.php
You’d have to tweak your theme’s single.php, archive.php, index.php and/or loop.php and change regular WP author template tags to that of BP user template tags as seen in bp-default’s index.php, single.php and archive.php for example.
I really love the extended profiles for members, but the same exact thing would be unbelievably beneficial for sites that focus on groups just as much as their members. Having such a useful profile extender would only help build up goups more.
So that’s what I’m looking for. I’m looking to be able to use the same style interface as XProfiles as well as the ability to create and modify group profile info on the backend as well as be able to add tabs with more and more suggested group info. Also being able to move the order from location to location, tab to tab would be awesome.
BuddyPress is an amazing tool. It’s for individuals that want to be a part of a group. It’s a shame that there isn’t as much emphasis placed on group creation as their is with user profile creation. Sure, you can add plugin after plugin, from sources that may give up on updates weeks to months down the line, but having this built in would show us that we don’t need to rely on anyone other than the developers to keep our communities growing.
Thanks and hope that this will be a future addition to BuddyPress!
I can’t get bbPress to work with Buddypress. On one of my sites, I only want 1 main forum. On my other site I want forums for both groups and the main site. I just can’t get it to work. I have tried deleting both BuddyPress and bbPress. And yet it does not work. I would really appreciate any help.

Bah. Never mind. I’m having one of those days. The bbcode2 plugin works just fine with the latest version of BuddyPress. I thought it wasn’t working because I was doing test posts on my live site instead of the test site where I actually had the plugin installed.
