Check two areas:
– server: see if there’s a bb-config.php file at root of your WP install, same level where you find the wp-config.php
– database: check if 7 tables were generated in your database or not. See examples of bbPress tables in either single WP and WP multisite at https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/3/#bp-forums-db
@mercime , still not working…..any other ideas??
Change to bp-default theme. If issue is corrected, then its the premium theme that in all probability needs to be updated. Also, looks like the theme dev does provide support at TF.
Where did you download the language files from?
There is no Portugal Portugese in https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/translations/ and the Brazilian Portugese link goes to non relevant advertising in Japanese….
If it doesn’t already exist you need to create a languages folder under wp-content – http://www.example.com/wp-content/languages/
@hiresphereadmin please contact theme devs or check out their forums if someone has resolved same issue.
@rahul247rocks just to clarify, are you using the WP default theme, Twenty Eleven, or BP default theme, bp-default ? Site URL?
@hiresphereadmin this is something you should ask theme devs. If you already did, what did they say is causing the issue?
I downloaded the files “po” and “mo” to translate BuddyPress and now I do not know how to proceed with the translation process
If anyone can help me be very grateful, thank you.
Hey Guys I recently Installed BuddyPress 1.5.2 and I am using the default theme. I found that the blog post page…that actually shows the blog article shows the widgets moved completely to the right hand side and the widgets are all messed up. Could you please help me solve the problem. Its happening only to the individual blog posts. On all other pages the widgets are in the perfect( right side) area. Please Help.
Hi there,
I use a plugin called “Reveal Template” to tell me which WP template is being used. Unfortunately it does not show me which buddypress template is being used. Is there a way to find out which files/templates are loaded exactly when buddypress serves a page? Is that filename somewhere available in a variable or so?
When I click on the ‘settings’ option, all of the links are broken. No general or any of the submenus appear and google appears:
Oops! This link appears to be broken.
Suggestions:
Go to http://www.atlantagardeningforum.com
Search http://www.atlantagardeningforum.com for members admin settings
I’ve worked through my other issues and now I have this last one. There were posts on my website before I added buddypress. Somehow a fb db plugin link has gotten attached to my profile so it displays my avatar my name and then this code beneath:

Since I am the administrator of the site, I can’t very well delete my profile. Can this be edited in the mysql database or something?
Hi guys!
Having alot of fun with WordPress and learning Buddypress.
I am having some issues installing BBpress, I have followed the following:
http://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/2/#bp-sitewide-forums
but, when I goto http://www.magalufconnect.net/forums/forum/announcements, on Crome it comes up blank, but IE it shows: <a href="
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_get_forum() in /home/elliogle/magalufconnect.net/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bp-forums-functions.php on line 32
Have I done something wrong?
just want to add one thing. when i look into the forum tab on buddypress setting. the “install sitewide forum” still exists. Should it be “uninstall sitewide forum” or something?
I’ve had this problem for a while now, for some reason, I don’t know why a name, date of birth, and interest information appear in their fields. Take a look: http://www.ivotepolls.com/register
For example: in Name, it says: Colin Heinink
Where is this problem originating?
I am using: BuddyPress 1.2.9
Odd. Create a ticket at http://buddypresss.trac.wordpress.org with the details and a patch.
I’m not seeing from what’s on that page how I would go about that…. part of the problem to is I’m not seeing what file buddypress members search function is actually defined in, seeing that would probably help. But I’m digging around and not finding the file.
Right now the search is going to :http://mydomain.com/?s=username&members_search_submit=Search
It seems that it should instead be http://mydomain.com/members/?s=username
I imagine I could change this in whatever file defines that search function.
Am I at least on the right track as far as that goes? Or way off?
For the “Settings” 404 issue, since you’re running a custom theme, did you upgrade from BP 1.2.x?
If so, you’ll probably want to read this:
https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/1-5-developer-and-designer-information/#theme
You’ll probably want to pass your search term from your form into your own members loop with the “search_terms” parameter:
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-members-loop/
It’s important to know what you want to accomplish.
Do you want to install both group forums and sitewide forums or just one of the choices?
Try reading this tutorial:

If you have any questions after reading it, please post them.
hello i just installed the latest buddypress on the latest wordpress.
when i have installed the widesite forum, the page for forums didnt exist.
in the bbpress setting there was conflict between forums base with the forums page, i have changed it to any names but still the forums page wont show up.
i also have tried it by going to the page manually http://mywebsite.com/forums but theres an error saying “The forums component has not been set up yet.”
how to fix this?
ps: its working fine with groups forums.
The buddypress.org theme was created by John.
It will probably not be publicly released, though if you have experience designing and developing WordPress themes, it shouldn’t be that hard to replicate the look and feel.
Wordpress stores language in wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-languages/buddypress.pot
Friend, and variations (including plurals), appear many, many times…..
PoEdit is free software designed to make editing language files easier….
