Bad Hammer looks better. I’ll delete the Block by Maths and use that as it gives a list of who is spammer etc and who isn’t. As you say, it’s also been tested.
@fswd
The ‘Block Spam by maths’ seems to be doing the trick in stopping the robot members. I haven’t had any since I activated it last night, I’ve had legitimate members joining which shows it still allows humans to join. But I’m still cautious about widgets that show a ‘not tested’ warning, so I would be very interested in knowing if the one you are testing works out ok.
@paul Gibbs Thanks for reassuring me that I don’t have to keep changing browsers.
I just have to solve the problem of why I can’t have 3 columns back on my site instead of the two, it looks awful. Any suggestion as to where I post a troubleshoot question for this little problem. Take a look and you’ll see what I mean. http://clandestinecakeclub.co.uk/
BuddyPress sets up component pages where it is installed. In your case, the main site. Do you have BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG in your wp-config.php ?
Hi,
I have a multisite install, whilst buddypress has setup component pages for my main site, it hasn’t setup these pages for any of my other sites, does anyone know how I can get this done please?
http://www.itstech.co.uk
P.S. I want to use a child theme of twenty eleven with little customization I made, if that will make things any different.
I was planning to have a separate subdomain blog for my buddypress in my multisite, but as there is a problem with that in 1.5:
http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3602
which I think will take time to solve, I thought to have buddypress on root blog normally, which I use twentyeleven theme for, I tried template pack plugin, but the buddypress pages look all un arranged and main profile picture is not by username and so on.
Is there a way I can have bp-default theme for buddypress pages while having twenty eleven normally for whole blog? can it work if I copied the whole template files for ( member, register, profile ) in the twenty eleven theme? I don’t really care for preserving same pages feeling between buddypress and twentyeleven, I just want each of them to look good separately 
thanks, but as indicated earlier, i switched to the default theme (bp 1.5) and received the exact same error message 
doesn’t make sense at this point to have both the main site AND the buddypress section down so i put the custom theme back.
My main website is http://www.utraz.com and the issue is when trying to crop an avatar.
I have BuddyPress installed on WordPress, in 3 locations on my website, 2 are the most up to date versions and one is about a 2 month old version. My issue is with the crop function when people upload an Avatar they can see the image but the select box on it moves around like crazy and there is no control. I have completed all the troubleshooting I can think of removing plugins, changing themes, making sure things are up to date and messing around with some code but the problem remains.
Since the issue occurs in 3 locations on the website,(they are not linked together in anyway other than by the domain), that is must be something to do at a global level? If so what should I do to find and fix it..
Read this page a code snippet for displaying profile fields in member header https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/tips-tricks/
I had a idea for a feature, kinda like facebook when you have a new notif. if your in another tab, a (1) comes up on the buddypress site
also is it possible to add history to your notif. like how fb notif. does it
Ok so I’ve been trying to add a front end posts plugin for my site but when I do it causes an error in the notifications section of the bp-admin bar. it says…
Notifications
Fatal error: Cannot access empty property in home/xxxx/public_html/xxxxxx.com/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-notifications/ on line 63
Now I tried disabling the two front end posts plugins and deleting them but the error remains. What is going wrong here?
Hi guys:
I recently upgraded my community school for BuddyPress 1.5. I have two problems:
1. The “Settings” link [http://{website}/members/{username}/settings/] from profile is not working.
2. I restrict group creation to site admins but the button “Creat a Group” still appears to not admins users.
I appreciate the help. Tks.
PLUGIN: Ban Hammer does not display a ‘not tested’ warning if using WP 3.2.1
It’s a lightweight plugin that blocks repeat bot domains by manually added to a list.
It’s loaded on our site with no issues – will see how it performs. 
@martinavive, What is the URL to your site and i will tell you css to do that.
regards
@Lynn I’m going to quickly check out this spam blocker plugin now:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/ban-hammer/
Will let you know how it goes.
@PaulGibbs – Still have problems with the Widget drop-downs. Guess you’ve not got around to this one yet, (which is cool).. No stress – just wanted you to know!
Thanks for the reply! I agree that a hack wouldn’t be a good idea. I guess you helped to clarify my question. I don’t want to have a second theme. I like the style and look of my site overall, but it seems to interfere with the way that buddypress looks and fuctions. It just isnt’ as easy to use and navigate as the basic buddypress theme. I don’t know how extensive the coding would be, so I may or may not be able to do it myself. We would definitely look into outsourcing the work if its something that would give us a good end result.
By the way, I am using wordpress template pack. Would you be able to elaborate your suggestion about copying over the styling, etc. Thanks again!
Ah, so it’s a dodgy plugin? Excellent. We should make a list somewhere.
@bakelady Any browser should be fine – I was just working through possible ideas about where the error was
@Lynn We have used Block Spam by Math plugin on several sites now for well over a year with no issue so far. Give it a spin and see!!
Cool spot. Can you report this as an enhancement on http://buddypress.trac.WordPress.org please? You can use your username and password from this site to log in with. Thanks!
Hi, If its the problem I had then your website is not loading Global.JS you need to backup your functions.php file, (use your childthemes one if you have one) then edit it and add this code below near the bottom:
if ( !function_exists( ‘bp_dtheme_enqueue_scripts’ ) ) :
/**
* Enqueue theme javascript safely
*
* @see https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script
* @since 1.5
*/
function bp_dtheme_enqueue_scripts() {
// Bump this when changes are made to bust cache
$version = ’20110921?;
// Enqueue the global JS – Ajax will not work without it
wp_enqueue_script( ‘dtheme-ajax-js’, WP_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/global.js’, array( ‘jquery’ ), $version );
// Add words that we need to use in JS to the end of the page so they can be translated and still used.
$params = array(
‘my_favs’ => __( ‘My Favorites’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘accepted’ => __( ‘Accepted’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘rejected’ => __( ‘Rejected’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘show_all_comments’ => __( ‘Show all comments for this thread’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘show_all’ => __( ‘Show all’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘comments’ => __( ‘comments’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘close’ => __( ‘Close’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘view’ => __( ‘View’, ‘buddypress’ )
);
wp_localize_script( ‘dtheme-ajax-js’, ‘BP_DTheme’, $params );
}
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘bp_dtheme_enqueue_scripts’ );
endif;
Sure, if i understand correctly you only want logged in users to see certain pages.
Private-buddypress should do the job:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/private-buddypress/
Hope that helps.
Thank you so much.
If anyone in the future gets this issue, my theme is Arras, the childtheme is called BrownBuddy and you have to edit the above code on the functions.php which is located in the BrownBuddy theme’s root.
