BuddyPress.org

Like @mercime alluded to, it’s safe to assume the integration issues are in your theme.

contact me asap

That isn’t how this works; no one is going to email you to help you. I suggest you check the codex or these forums for people having a similar issue.

As a general hint, create a WordPress page and then set it in your BuddyPress settings.

BuddyPress Codex

@djpaul I too tried following the same steps you outlined above (i.e. changing the slugs) and site wide forums are still not working for me. Its important for me to have the Component Box enabled as I need it enabled so the forum functions show up for the Achievements plugin. Any suggestions or detailed steps you can provide?

If your problem is specific to the Sitewide Forums not working, your best place for support is the bbPress forums at http://www.bbpress.org. They work with BuddyPress’ activity stream.

On the BuddyPress side of things, we’re deprecating the BuddyBar, so there was no point building bbPress 2.0 support into it. In BP 1.6, we’re switching over the the WP Toolbar. And in conjunction with bbPress 2.1, it’ll integrate forums into BuddyPress groups.

No date for BP 1.6 yet, but will hopefully be in beta soon.

== I remember when installing forums in BuddyPress was a breeze… ==
The internal bbPress installation, Forums for Groups, is still a breeze. Group Forums are fully integrated with BP 1.5.2. While Sitewide Forums, bbPress 2.0.2, is compatible with BP 1.5.2, full integration will come in BP 1.6 possibly with script to migrate Group Forums to the Sitewide Foruns.

As to the errors you are encountering, are these on a relatively new installation? If you change to bp-default theme and deactivate all plugins except BP and bbPress, are the errors still showing up? If so, you might want to report it in Trac. https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/

@isbul do you mean that you want to hide the date when the group was created? Are you using the bp-default theme or child theme of bp-default?

this code used to work in older versions of BP – http://teleogistic.net/2011/03/redirect-buddypress-activity-reply-links-to-forums-leave-a-reply/

I haven’t tried it in 1.5.2 yet.

let me know how you get on.

+1 on this – it is very frustrating part of the system.

@socialnetworklearner

You’ll need to delete lines 1143 to 1618 from style.css.

It starts with “@media only screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 991px)”

BuddyPress doesn’t ship with a mobile theme?

Hi Modemlooper, sorry to hear you’ve had a hard time. Your Widget theme is brilliant. I found a bug practically the same day you wrote your announcement. I love your theme and I really want to use it. Can you let me know if you are going to fix that last bug, because I need to know what to do, whether to go ahead with that or find a new one. I’m really hoping to be able to use your Widget Theme, which I love.

Linda

@petergriffyn

As per the roadmap – https://buddypress.org/about/roadmap/
“Full integration and migration for bbPress 2.0” will be in BP 1.6

@Memfis – I notice your using a custom theme (rather than a childtheme of bp-default)

Have you registered the buttons in your functions.php file?
Have a peek through the bp-default functions.php file for the code and copy it into yours.

It’ll be something like
`add_action( ‘bp_member_header_actions’, ‘bp_add_friend_button’ );`
