good point !
can’t afford any more site breaks on a flourishing community
I take it my initial plan A is not worth pursuing then?
It does address both menus specifically speaking..
It would help if you had a test site to try it out on, ie: localhost or a subdomain…
customized bp-columns? sounds interesting !
does the fact that I have the secondary navigation as the mobile version of the site make any difference? just got this gut feeling that this may just fail unless I call the secondary the logged-out-menu as my theme at present only supports 2 menus.
I apologize on any inconvenience this may cause and I’ve done some searching without any proper answers. Anyway, I’ve recently came into possession of a domain name. However, this domain name isn’t classified as real and can only be used for domain parking. Well, I’ve set that up and all pages currently work fine. Members, Activity, etc all show up fine. However, when you click “create a new account” or try to login with one that you’ve already own, it will redirect you to the home page. Odd thing is, upon hovering over these links, it displays my subdomain. If I happen to visit my subdomain’s site, it will let me register and login fine, so I assume that the reason for redirection is the fact that they link to the subdomain and not the current domain. If i manually type in, say, .com/register, it will take me to the registration page under my current domain. So, I’m wondering what exactly do I need to edit to change the links for the registration and login pages? i’ve already tried creating new pages for activate and register but that don’t do any good. If I view the pages through the admin panel, they show the actual domain of my site and not the subdomain unlike the home page.
I’m running WordPress 3.2.1. and BuddyPress 1.5.1.
I’m using a customised bp-columns, which is mostly the same as bp-default.
I would just replace
`wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘bp_dtheme_main_nav’ ) );`
which begins and ends with php tags with the above also wrapped in php tags….
the mobile angle is something else…
ok gonna give it a try (fingers crossed)
I’ll pop it in my child themes header.php (bp default 1.5.1)
any particular nesting point..?
Actually I think it should, but I didn’t try it as I was already experimenting with the above for a non bp site and tried it out on a bp test site and it worked.
I quite like this approach because you could also use the data (see link) to do other things as well…..
How nice would it be if someone could start a topic that looked just like a status update from facebook whether it be about a video/picture/topics and then people could just comment on it the same way people comment in a group on buddypress. Then you could show a list of the trending (last commented) topics in a widget and it’s perfect.
hi @aces !
thanks for the alternative option
does your post imply that the example I’m trying to use will NOT work then.?
by the way I have 3 menus in place:
primary navigation – logged-in-menu
mobile menu – mobile (buddypress mobile)
logged-out-menu
How about the following (in the header?) instead of what’s there (bp 1.5.1)
`// https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_get_current_user
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
if ( 0 == $current_user->ID ) {
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘secondary-menu’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ” ) );
// Not logged in.
} else {
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ” ) );
// Logged in.
}
`
? (wrapped in “ tags)
okay so I’ve done some digging and found – nav-menu.php
copied it to my child themes folder and created two seperate menus in my admin dashboard.
I found this code for the menu config: here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu
`<?php
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘theme_location’ => ‘logged-in-menu’ ) );
} else {
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘theme_location’ => ‘logged-out-menu’ ) );
}
?>`
Am I getting warm..?
If so, just two questions remain..
a) where in: nav-menu.php do I add the above code..?
b) Does the above code need to be wrapped at all..?
Kind regards in advance 
its not the memory thats the issue i had it working before so something is wrong with bbpress or buddypress :l
`’menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘bp_dtheme_main_nav’ ` pertains to the adoption of the wp_nav_menu function which allows users to create their own menu. This falls back to wp_page_menu and bp_nav_menu.

Goodbye, headaches. Hello, menus!
Im working in new framework for wordpress+buddyperss for for building web services, the plugin expose functionality of wp and any other plugins installed in wp to other web sites and desktop applications. i will share a beta version soon.
Yep, I’ve also noticed this. I expect there is a very easy way to fix this.
Gonna talk to my developer now and will report back.
If anyone has an idea in the meantime, let me know!
Does anyone have a solution for this?

Did you run wp-admin dashboard > Settings > Permalinks and set it to other than the default “ugly” permalink? Pretty Permalinks are required for BuddyPress. Do you have mod_rewrite enabled in your server?
I have downloaded buddypress to my website and my members cannot cannot start a group and they are not able to post status on their activity pages.
Hi
Ive installed buddypress but I keep getting the error :
The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Activity Streams, Discussion Forums, User Groups, Members, Activate, Register.
When I click fix I am take to the ‘pages’ section in Buddypress settings area but there are no page dropdowns to select pages for activity streams, user grouds etc.
I have created the pages but they are still not showing up. Driving me nuts!
Any ideas?

The forum directory seems a little difficult to browse rapidly, so I’ll try posting this here.
Basically I am a WordPress developer but no BuddyPress expert, and am working on a BuddyPress site for which we need the help of an expert. It’s a startup online community, the concept and team are both inspiring and the work that needs to be done is well defined.
If you are interested, private message me with your hourly, link to portfolio and availability. Referrals are welcome too.
Thanks!
Any update on this? I’m also interested in trying to integrate Open Social into a BP install
== Public pages are now asking for a log-in. ==
A default BuddyPress installation does not “ask for log-in”
I have a multisite Buddypress install.
Here’s the problem: Public pages are now asking for a log-in. I don’t want everything behind the buddypress wall. I want some posts to be public, others behind the BuddyPress login on all sites. These pages need to be generally available, without the login redirect.
