You’re referring to BuddyPress Followers plugin, right? What theme are you using? Follow button shows up/works when you’re using bp-default theme or WP theme with BP Template Pack. If you’re using custom BP theme, check if it has “ in custom theme’s /members/single/member-header.php

This is what I see when I am logged out of trac, which is what I suspect you’re seeing.

What do you see after clicking the “Login” link in the upper right corner? You should get an alert that pops up and prompts you to login. If so, use your WordPress.org/BuddyPress.org/bbPress.org username and password. You should be good to go from there.

whoo hoo, thank you @Lindsayannb, this was exactly what I was looking for : )

B. At the bottom of the same 16 files, replace:
`

`

with the following (except for registration/register.php):
`

`

with the following for registration/register.php:
`

jQuery(document).ready( function() {
if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();
jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
});
});

`

C. Save files. Upload 6 BP folders to your server wp-content/themes/insignio/

D. You might also want to check out the style modifications made in BP Twenty Ten for reference. https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/

@mosaicrob You will change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your insignio theme folder in server during the compatibility process.

If you’ve previously changed any of the BP template files in your theme folder, replace all of them for a clean slate by deleting the 6 BP folders in server – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility.

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
`

@jamesmcbennett Sorry, missed the header-wrapper div. Open up your header-buddypress.php file and above
`

Do you mean something like this https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-profile-menu/screenshots/

Could just be that the widget plugin is interfering with the function calls. Not sure about that. The scope of forums assistance covers getting HTML structure of theme onto the BP Template files. I used the info you have posted in pastebin. If there’s still some misalignment, let me know by posting url’s of BP pages in your site.

I am not saying to jump the gun and make every single Profile field either view-able or not depending on friendship. Just a simple choice to display or not to display your profile to people you are not friends with.

Have you checked out the trunk for BP 1.6 lately? https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk

You’ll be pleasantly surprised. See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5789 for example.

all members should have to be logged first before even given the option to view another members profile, maybe a landing page integration built into BuddyPress core that redirects any visitor the the landing page when attempting to view any post or page on the site.

That’s different and already possible with a couple lines of code.

See https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/tasty-kitchen-member-privacy/

YES YES YES! PLEASE buddypress we need privacyy i think expecialy for activity +10000!

Are you talking about a landing page? Check out my social network http://www.snaplist.net23.net if what I have done with my site is what your trying to achieve let me know and I will assist you.

@mercine, i have buddypress default theme and have de-activated all plugins except Suffusion BuddyPress Pack. i have the same problem as the guys above. (same wp and bp versions as above.) if i have understood correctly, in the email i received, the string

http://www.mywebsitename.org/activate/?key=9f664b72a0b703fe63a4f61fc2066175

contains the activation key at:

9f664b72a0b703fe63a4f61fc2066175

but when i paste this in the Activation Code box, i stay on the same page and nothing happens.

thanks, regards
SP

Could have sworn that Peter Anselmo’s documents plugin had a version compatible with BP 1.5 but the github one is compatible with lower BP version. As for working version of this that plugin, you could try and contact the developer at his website and offer payment for updated version at http://www.code-zen.net/contact/

If that doesn’t work for you, you could hire a developer or Boone to build upon or create a plugin which add anselmo’s or new functions to @boonebgorges excellent BuddyPress Docs plugin

Okay, this is what I did to get a register page I needed. It wasn’t a two step set up, but it got me all the information I needed in one menu.

I don’t use the Buddy Press register page, but rather a plugin called Login Logout. This always directs to the Wordpres login page or register page if they hit join on my site. I have also hidden the admin bar to logged out users.

I then place the Login Logout widget in a sidebar space so anyone can use it from the front page.

I used CIMY Extra Fields plugin to add the fields to the register page. I used Custom Login to design my login page.

You don’t want BuddyPress to handle things like age, location, unless you want to publicize that information to any other buddypress user.
