thanks aces
I tried modifying it with the method on the first link but couldn’t work out as I couldn’t find out how to replace every instance of the word I wanted to change with poedit. It appears as if you can only edit one line at a time?
Any way I decided to edit the file buddypress.pot file (inside the bp-languages folder) with a text editor and replace the word “groups” and “group” inside the quotation marks but left the instances where it was associated with .php files. But the word “group” still kept appearing on the website despite it being changed in the .pot file.
Is there something I am missing? or is there a better way of replacing it?
no… But buddypress doesn’t work properly with default permalinks…
Also if i install just wordpress on its own without buddypress the links are not found either. Im uploading and installing straight to the webserver online if that makes sense, should i be doing this locally first then uploading it to the server?
@philie go to admin dashboard menu Settings > Permalinks and set to other than the default permalink.
Before answering the full-width question, how did you approach Step 3 of the BP compatibility process, i.e. HTML structure? Two different methods (change 16 files OR the header-buddypress.php, etc methods) in the compatibility process == different methods to resolve issue and get full-width HTML structure afterwards.
This is not a typical BuddyPress install, the usebase is tied into WordPress.com and there was an update to WordPress a few months back and it broke this site so they fixed enough to get site some what usable.
It’s taking longer to fix this site because John Jacoby is adding bbpress forums. Bare with the breakage now and get better support later with refreshed and enhanced forums.
It’s really difficult to diagnose what could be the problem without knowing the theme, or having a website link, or knowing what plugins, or edits to functions.php, etc, you might be using.
I would recommend using Internet explorer developer tools (press f12), Google Chrome (press f12) or firefox’s firebug add-on (press f12 after installing), or similar for other browsers, to try to identify which css rule(s) etc is/are responsible and to experiment with fixes….
@modemlooper it’s unfair to say that visitors shouldn’t use the very BuddyPress.org website as an example of BuddyPress’ quality. It’s reasonable to expect the core developers of the very software you’re using to lead by example with the site they’ve built to support their community.
@bluesalman got the message from Salman. Checked it and the issue on the buttons I remember was caused by the “`display: block`” in your WP theme’s style for `button` and `a.bp-primary-action span, #reply-title small a span`. Just checked your site a few minutes ago and the URL you gave is now a blank page.
Here is an image of what the forums page looks like… it’s ugly.

the colors are off too, but i’m going at this one step at a time.
Thanks again!

Cai you help me with your plugin please? I can’ t post in other groups (I don’ t know why)
I have buddypress mobile 1.5.2.3 and bp 1.5. in iphone the activity is very “slow motion”.
In the past I had bp 1.2 and bpmobile 1.x and I had same problem… you reply me to copy a file from my desktop theme to bp mobile folder and the problem was resolved…. but I don’ t remember which file!!!
Please help me! thanx
I have buddypress 1.5 and buddypress mobile 1.5.2.3
It’ s a great plugin but when I go into activity page it’ s very slowly in iphones. It’ s all ok in desktop version
You could try this instead:
Code:
global $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();
$user_id = $current_user->ID;
$field = xprofile_get_field_data(1, $user_id); //where 1 is the field_id or use quotes for a field name and the user_id is the currently logged in user
echo ‘<a href="hxxp://somedomain.com/something.jsp?’ . $field . ‘">Your Text</a>’;
@mercime and @capt_blackwood I have turned off the group forums feature, but still have problems.
Guys, do not us this site as an example of BuddyPress quality. It’s being updated to something completely different and better. It’s a custom BuddyPress site.
The example site for BuddyPress is http://testbp.org
Howdy! I’m very interested in transitioning to buddypress from Dolphin 7 but the one thing I’ve been having trouble finding info on is if I can replicate the front page image and video galleries like they are on my current Dolphin install:

Also I think I saw a plugin for this, but it is possible for the community to post blogs to the front page, correct? Thanks so much for your time, as a wordpress user for my other site I’m excited about the buddypress possibilities! Take care.

I installed BuddyPress 1.5.1. If I could login to my site admin I’d tell you which version of bbPress was installed. However, as they seem to have screwed up my site I can’t.
How do I follow-up on my forum posts, the ones I create and respond to? I get a Page Not Found error on http://buddypress.org/support/topics/mine/
On My Profile / Forums is empty (and I posted on and started a few topics)
Posting on http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/ gets me an error: “There was a problem posting your update, please try again.”
Hello,
Is there a plugin for auto join group, who works with BuddyPress 1.5?
