BuddyPress.org

So in my case I find the problem of why “upload avatar” doesn’t work.
It’s because of the BuddyPress Template pack plugin. When I use the bp default theme everything works perfectly.
When I use any wordpress theme that I made compatible with BuddyPress using the plugin bp Template pack I find exactly the same problem: Avatar Upload, private message, register… all of that doesn’t work… as soon as you click on the button “Submit” or “Crop” you go back to the same page and nothing happen?! It’s like the information wasn’t given at all…
There is a conflict somewhere that I can’t find!
Any Ideas???

[EDIT] Ok I solved the problem!!!
Ok so if none of the solution you have in this topic works for you it’s probably because you have a conflict between a js script in your default theme and a js script in your wordpress theme… take a minute tu disable all the js action in your wordpress theme ton test if it’s coming from there…

@hnla @r-a-y Thanks guys

i have a problem with site wide tags and BP. The problem is i have duplicate post on the recent post widget, one for the original post and other for the tags blog post.

Is there any solution to solve that?

I’ve been wrestling this issue as well. How did you work it out? The site looks great.

Looks good so far! I’ll fully test it tonight.

Please read the instructions provided in the previous post.

All you need to do is create a new folder in /wp-content/themes/.
Then you create a stylesheet with the data listed in the tutorial.

Next, you should copy over “/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/groups/groups-loop.php” to your new theme, maintaining the directory structure.

eg. /wp-content/themes/YOUR_NEW_THEME/groups/groups-loop.php

Then make your changes there.

If you make changes to the default BP theme, you should create a child theme so your changes will not be overwritten when you upgrade BP.

I’m having the same problem as brian-hatano above! I’m using WP2.9.2 / BP 1.2.3 and I have no idea what the “Site Admin” section is. Does this work with regular WP, or just WPMU?

Edit:
Just found this link: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/just-added-our-version-of-auto-group-join-as-well-as-forum-topic-mover/

I think he still wants the ability to tag people in posts, just not have to use the @username method. Basically a more semantic method… which is kind of like asking for the moon. I think it can be done, it’d just be a huge pain to code.

I like to see other plugins use this to display data. Im using cubepoints buddypress integration and if ranks and points could come up that be cool so I think maybe php support would be cool.

Go to admin side of your blog then click from left menu Settings -> Miscellaneous Settings
Set “Store uploads in this folder” to “wp-content/uploads”.
Set “Full URL path to files” to the REAL FULL PATH of your uploads. e.g “http://yoursiteblog/wp-content/uploads”

Go to wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-avatars.php
Then change bp-core-avatars.php line 389

Replace:
if ( !$path = get_option( ‘upload_path’ ) )
$path = WP_CONTENT_DIR . ‘/uploads’;

With:
if ( !$path = get_option( ‘upload_path’ ) )
$path = WP_CONTENT_DIR . ‘/uploads’;
else $path = ABSPATH . $path;

Note: Take care for quotes you must remove and again add by yourself, otherwise you will get Warning: Division by zero …
Hope it will work perfectly for image upload and crop issue.

It took a little while for all of my ranks to populate…

This is a great and useful plugin. We’re planning on using it to do a content centered around who invites the most people to the site. One problem I’m having is that rank is only showing on some profile and not others. Any idea of why this would be?
Examples:
Not showing on this profile
http://supportforspecialneeds.com/members/bedwards3447/

Showing on this profile
http://supportforspecialneeds.com/members/siobhanwolf/

(At least that’s how it was at the time I posted this — maybe it’ll spontaneously resolve? Stranger things have happened!)

Simple answer. Backup the files and the database. Then you’re all good. Every host that I’ve seen has those backup functions available to you. Most call it a home directory backup and a mysql database backup (or something similar).
