Thanks @boonebgorges – that’s perfect!
Just in-case anyone else comes across this, here is the complete final function for removing the various navigation items from the group menu in BP1.5:
`function ja_remove_navigation_tabs() {
bp_core_remove_subnav_item( bp_get_current_group_slug(), ‘send-invites’ );
bp_core_remove_subnav_item( bp_get_current_group_slug(), ‘members’ );
bp_core_remove_subnav_item( bp_get_current_group_slug(), ‘admin’ );
}
add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘ja_remove_navigation_tabs’, 15 );`
I have a multi-site with 6 sites. One of those should be the social-site. And I’d like to try to get buddypress on there. But it doesn’t want to install beta3.
I first get this error:
"The plugin does not have a valid header."
But that is because I have to get the ‘1.5-beta-3’-folder out of the ‘tags’ folder.
But after I have done that and want to activate the plugin, I get this error:
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Warning: require(/domains/nul.nu/DEFAULT/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-wpabstraction.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /domains/nul.nu/DEFAULT/wp-content/plugins/1.5-beta-3/bp-loader.php on line 68
Oh well, maybe I should hang in there just a few more days to wait for the final release…
In BuddyPress 1.5, the parent slug for an individual group is not ‘groups’ or $bp->groups->slug. Instead, it is the single item slug (ie the group slug). Try this:
`bp_core_remove_subnav_item( bp_get_current_group_slug(), ‘send-invites’ );`
== could this file that causes the problem?because i didnt see anything that is weird here..==
You’re right. Your .htaccess file is fine.
== before i build that site on the server right now which is (ladykashandkrissy.com), i have built the first version on the server jaws.my first.==
You’re missing some steps required in moving your install from jaws.my to ladykashandkrissy.com as evidenced in remaining redirects to your old server.

@dosch what exactly are you trying to do? Go multisite or install BuddyPress in multisite installation?
Short of finding a way to change the default settings, I’d like to at least manually change them for my users before they have the chance to get annoyed with so many emails. http://www.linkkei.com
Something’s getting lost in translation. Avatars are the images representing the members of the BuddyPress installation. Albums are photo galleries. What exactly are you asking about? WordPress has forums in different languages, perhaps there is one in your language.
I am also having problems
I have decided to try the ad system solvemedia. which is like a captcha however it uses an ad for it and pays for each type in. I am having problems integrating it. It has a wordpress plugin but it does simply not work with the buddypress signup page. The php documentation can be found here:
http://portal.solvemedia.com/portal/help/pub/php/
any help is appreciated.
Will someone make a plugin for that if I pay for it?
@johnjamesjacoby I’ve installed BP Beta 3 with the bbpress 2.0 plugin – everything works fine (Thanks!)…
…only one thing is missing: where are the bbpress favorites in the BP profile page? Thanks for help.
I try to do this with 1.5 beta 3 but it doesn’t seem to work.
any tips?
em sorry…
i mean that is my mistake before..actually before i build that site on the server right now which is (ladykashandkrissy.com), i have built the first version on the server jaws.my first.
and only after that, i move the first version of the site which is on the “jaws.my” server into the “ladykashandkrissy.com” server.and thats why you getting this link :
http://jaws.my/demo/kashnkrissy2/members/admin/
so, basically i not trying to do/run the multisite here..
and about the .htcaccess file that you mentioned, yeah at first i also thought that it might be the problem, but then when i look back at the .htaccess file on the site, there is only this that is written :
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
could this file that causes the problem?because i didnt see anything that is weird here..
Hello,
Are buddypress have only EN language? Where i can find more translate packs?
thanks for help!
Hi, I’ve read about the changes for the BP 1.5 plugins.
I have a WP plugin that I would like to extend for BuddyPress. The only functions I would like for it is add BP notifications for some events.
1) do we need to extend the BP_Component for every plugin, or just for complex components ?
I my case, should I do it ?
2) Guess I’ll have to do it. Then my 2nd question : I did a test and wasn’t able to make it work.
Seems that the child class do not runs the function “includes”. It work if I run it manually; but then
3) my plugin’s global “notification_callback” is empty. The function exists. though. Guess this is related with the previous thing. But even if I try
`
$bp->query_subscribe = new BP_Query_Subscribe();
//TO FIX SHOULD RUN AUTOMATICALLY
$bp->query_subscribe->includes();
$bp->query_subscribe->bp_query_subscribe_format_notifications=’bp_query_subscribe_format_notifications’;`
my notifications are not displayed (but they are recorded in the sql tables).
Could someone give me some advices ? Also, it would be wonderful to update the bp-skeleton-plugin !

I’m concerned about changing server information when I’m don’t seem to be having the 404 error trouble as is noted in the references you gave.
Is it normal to not be able to use BuddyPress on a Windows server? I know it’s more difficult – but one of the potential solutions you listed even said that one of the BP developers uses a Windows Server.
I’m afraid that if I can’t do some kind of coding fix, I’ll just have to dump buddy press 
Thanks again in advance for any solutions! 
@harty I played around with if statements in my actual child theme php pages, but it’s likely that the second link you posted might be the best way to go – I think a bp developer might know best.
@sbruner, on the homepage of my site, right below the header it says : “widgetize header, This panel is active and ready for you to add some widgets via the WP Admin”. same with the footer. yeah i copied and pasted the exact codes from the article.
It’s not clear what you mean! You can already change the buddypress avatar to your photo.
For Albums etc. look in the buddypress extend section: https://buddypress.org/extend/plugins/?search=photo
Image uploads work perfectly via the media library. I’m not sure what a native WP gallery is….
I created an avatars folder earlier today in my /uploads/ directory – I’ve tried to upload avatars and the folder is still empty.
File permission for the uploads folder and subfolders is 755.
Because I also can’t create groups, or register as a new user, I’m wondering if there isn’t some weird root folder link that isn’t working correctly. I’m not getting any errors whey I try to add a group / upload avatar, etc. – it’s like it just ignores me and gives me the original blank entry form (and doesn’t put the info anywhere).

My site is hosted through Readyhosting on a Windows 2003 server (a pain – I know).
I used Buddypress on this server months ago, but took it down when I revamped my site and used Elegant Themes.
Thanks in advance for your help!! 
So, the above function works for other menus I’ve tried (under profile) – but I can’t interact with the ‘groups’ menu… I have tried the following in the function above:
`bp_core_remove_subnav_item( ‘groups’, ‘send-invites’ );`
(And with global $bp):
bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $bp->groups->slug, ‘send-invites’ );
The problem I have is that I need to retain the invites functionality in certain group situations – I’m happy with my conditional code for this – no problemo… but just can’t get the above function to interact at-all with the group menu – in-fact I can’t remove anything from this menu – but I can from others?
Any help would be MUCH appreciated – I’m tearing my hear out on this one;(
@ewebber excellent site by the way. Glad to see you’re successfully giving back to your community.
Deactivate BuddyPress,
– Can you upload image/s via media library? Or can you create native WP gallery in your install?
Check if there was an /avatars/ folder created in your server –> wp-content/uploads/avatars
– If there’s no avatars folder created, then you might be dealing with permissions
– If there is an avatars folder, open it up and dig in to look for images named like
3a912****2d2f-bpfull.jpg
3a912****2d2f-bpthumb.jpg
Btw, Linux or Windows server? Is your install localhost or online?
Ah, my mistake – this code does actually work HOWEVER , I can’t get it to hide ‘Send Invites’ or anything else under the group menu… do I have to do something different?
`function ja_remove_navigation_tabs() {
bp_core_remove_nav_item(‘friends’);
bp_core_remove_nav_item(‘settings’);
}
add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘ja_remove_navigation_tabs’, 15 );`
