#1 and #2 I suggest you contact Headway theme devs/support as they know their complicated theme inside and out. Although I’m sure they know it by now, you can refer them to the BP Template Pack compatibility process – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
#3 – https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/ Though again, something you should bring over to Headway theme devs/support.
I’m having exactly the same problem: users are not getting any mail.
I don’t have “login with ajax” plugin install but only “bp user profile map”.
I’m gonna try with a fresh installation on a different domain name…
If only this forum were more active… I’m surprised, it seems not that many people are interested in BuddyPress, too bad for us who LIKE it.
Hi, i’ve installed buddypress on my website, but everytime i click on connect to wordpress it send me back to my website’s register page. so i went to wp-admin/options-general.php on my dashboard and changed the wordpress adress url to wordpress.org. now me and my members can’t log into their accounts, even when i go to the admin address for my buddypress installation on my website, i get redirected to wordpress.org. how can i solve this problem and change the wordpress address url on wp-admin/options-general.php back to the original address like it was. thanks
I have just updated BP 1.2.8 to BP1.5.1 running on WP 3.2.1. I have the Friends component disabled.
I was wondering if automcomplete in private messaging in BP 1.5.1 should be working when the friends component is disabled. (When I enable the Friends component it DOES work).
I did have this working in BP 1.2.8. by following this advise http://bit.ly/uOJ1Pt from @r-a-y
The following didnt work:
– De-activitating all Plugins
– Changing theme to default
When inspecting the Send To field it states that autocomplete is OFF. Shouldnt autocomplete be ON?
Could it also have to do with me moving WordPress from subdomain to root after update?
Any support is appreciated!!!
@mercime
For #1 above, that works, however that just resizes a 35 x 35 image via CSS to 100×100 making it look very pixelated and blurry.
Here is an example for the BP Members Widget on how to change the sizing without the image being blurry:

well, that did it, thanks a lot @pcwriter

I am using WordPress with WP Super Cache (preload enabled)..which is critical for me as I am on shared hosting.
I was horrified to hear that BP wipes out the entire cache whenever a user logs in.

Any chance there is work going on or at least plans to fix this?

Brilliant! Thanks!
I am leaning more and more towards BuddyPress…even though it doesn’t have all I need, it does seem to tick many of the big boxes.
I’m having the same issue with the current version of BuddyPress/WP/W3TC. Anybody found a fix for this?
Hi,
when a new user signs up to my Buddypress site, on success they get taken to a page where it displays the message
“Sign Up Complete!
You have successfully created your account! To begin using this site you will need to activate your account via the email we have just sent to your address.”
However, users are not getting any mail. My server has a running SMTP and POP mail server and I am able to send and receive mails through my domain.
Where do I find the settings to check this?
Also note – I have ‘Login with Ajax’ plugin installed.
@recruitbk
Just reread the 2nd part of your last post.
Use your original html. That worked… the only things missing are the new wrapper divs that need to be added for each section, then the simpler css.
@recruitbk
Sorry for not replying sooner, didn’t see this thread was updated 
You’ve set the width too big. You’re trying to fit 3 elements side-by-side, but each has a width set at 50% with a margin of 2%. That makes a total width of 52%. No matter what you do, only 1 will fit on any given line (trying to add another element with 52% width will simply bump it to the next line). The grand total of all elements, including padding and margins, should not exceed 100%. Setting the width to 30% and margin at 2% for the 3 will total 96%. Try adjusting as per the following:
`#profile-wrap #edit-profile-right-column-firstname, #profile-wrap #edit-profile-right-column-middlename, #profile-wrap #edit-profile-right-column-lastname{
display:inline-block;
width:.30%;
margin-right:2%;
}`
Looks like you’ve put BuddyPress into the root of /plugins/. It needs to be /plugins/buddypress/
@peterbujok
Try this. Add the following to your current theme style.css file (it will override the plugin css):
`/*Custom BP Profile Search*/
#bps_Form .editfield {width:110px;display:inline-block;}
#bps_Form h5 {display:none;}`
New wp and buddypress install:
Warning: require(/home/content/63/7572563/html/SWITCHGIFTSjosh/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-wpabstraction.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/63/7572563/html/SWITCHGIFTSjosh/wp-content/plugins/bp-loader.php on line 68

Any Ideas how to fix this?
Thank you.
Re: Theme
Try Trending by Justin Tadlock multiple nav menus https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/trending
Recommend building and activating a child theme of Trending then with the child theme activated, install and activate the BP Template Pack and go through the compatibility process.
Re: Can’t get to Support page
Go to admin dashboard menu BuddyPress > Pages > Directories – Discussion Forums and select -None- and click on Save button. Then run Settings > Permalinks to the year/month setting I set up earlier.
So I had a few custom profile fields (set in buddypress), and whenever I tried to test out updating the info in those fields, I’d get the error in big red at the top:
“There was a problem updating some of your profile information, please try again.”
Tried:
– removing ‘required’ on all fields (except First Name)
– removing ALL fields except First Name
Same result. No matter what, it triggers the $errors flag in “bp-xprofile-screens.php” here (around line 101):
if ( !xprofile_set_field_data( $field_id, $bp->displayed_user->id, $value, $is_required[$field_id] ) )
The weird thing is, that even though the error flag is being triggered, the information I enter on the profile screen is still saved.
Any ideas?
I’m using BP 1.5.1 and Buddypress Template Pack 1.2
Forgive me @mercime but I did exactly what you told me not to do and now can’t get to the support page. I’m sorry. I have tried installing a different theme and then going back to the Buddypress default, but that doesn’t work – please save me!
BuddyPress has no api so it would have to be web pages and if the app is only web pages it will get rejected. You will need to build in some feature that uses the device hardware.
@deschle: Did you actually get this to work somehow? I’d like to do the same for our site.
Cheers,
Normen
@mercime The problem with the Buddypress theme is that the menu headings disappear. I had two rows of menus, which have now vanished. Can you recommend any other Buddypress compatible themes which accomodate this and / or that look more appealing.
Please do not post test username and password with admin privileges in this forum. I’ve deleted the information. Delete the user you created.
Graphene is a nice theme but spout out too many errors – from creating the sitewide forums index page where it required post thumbnails etc. to adding the page to main navigation where it included the shortcode used to generate the forum index page.
The sitewide forums is functioning http://www.meetinbradford.org/support/ using the bp-default theme.
Reminder: Do not click on Repair button in – “The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Discussion Forums”.
I have also tried to make an own directory in wp-content/languages that is called /buddypress, but that didn’t work either.
