@foxly and others – Just wanted to drop a note about a recent commit https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/4977 where I made a minor adjustment to the new load order that should help a lot with plugin backward compatibility. In particular, plugins that are using the (old and incorrect but functional in 1.2.x) method of hooking their global and nav setup routines to ‘wp’ and ‘admin_menu’, which wasn’t working in earlier revs of BP trunk, should now be working. See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3476 for more explanation.
That said, you should do the right thing and update your plugin so that it does it correctly: set up your globals at bp_setup_globals and your nav at bp_setup_nav!
whoever does update it finally, I hope they consider adding following of other entities like blogs, groups, topics(tags), or rss.
I know i’ve been asking for an update for a few months now. Now that I’m seeing G+ circles in action, something along those lines to tag and group the people you follow would be very nice.
Thanks for the reply.
I hadnt made a functions.php file for the child theme. so I have been trying to with little success. The codex says to rename the functions.php so it doesnt clash with the default but that doesnt work either. I either get fatal errors and have to delete via ftp or in the buddypress editor it say “unable to edit”.
I have tried copying the default and placing it in the child theme and I’ve tried to create a blank function.php
I’ve also tried copying and renaming the default functions.php
I know its probably something I’m doing wrong Any suggestions, I’ll keep trying in the meantime.
Thanks in advance

@archonic bp-template-pack will be updated for 1.5, yes. What about the members/single files was particularly confusing?
@foxly Thanks for the new links. I’ve made the change.
Any word on a revised bp-template-pack plugin for 1.5? Just spent half a day trying to shoot from the hip but failed and reverted. The new files under members/single in the bp-default were particularly confusing.
Sounds like something that could be added as an enhancement to future BuddyPress
I am using powweb as hosting and installed a new WordPress. I went in and installed Buddypress. When I go in to activate Buddypress it gives me a 500 Internal Site Error. What I need to do to fix this???
You could download one of the BuddyPress 1.5 beta releases and either use that, or check to see how we’ve updated it to work with custom menus.
@alaenadunn How do you mean? I’ve copy/pasted your sample text into the “about me” field on http://testbp.org/members/djpaul/profile/public/ and it looks ok?
BuddyPress Follow needs to be updated for 1.5.
esploded; we need at the very least a link to your site, BuddyPress and WordPress version numbers, whether you’re using multisite, and whether you’re on IIS or not 
No. If you want to create your own table (and I’d suggest you carefully consider if you need one), put the creation code into your own plugin.
If your query is written correctly and your db user has permission to write it should work to your detriment. 
NP Just got propositioned by another one today: https://buddypress.org/community/members/favourlv/
Im flattered honestly but ehhh, I have enough kids lol

If i alter the sql function which creates the intial group table in the mysql database in the buddypress/bp-groups.php file (plugin folder) will it make the change in the database? For instance if i tell it to create another group table, named capo-groups, will it create anothert able in the database?
Wordpress/Buddypress Help (their forum was no help)
So the site i’m working is called CaraDaCapoeira.com. The buddypress theme provides me with a group function that I can’t do much with really but can be utilized for site groups like “Capoeira Rocks” or something like that. What I need now is to be able to have another “groups” section for Capoeira Schools across the world. I have 700 in excel files and would like to know what the best way to implement this other “groups” section on my buddypess site to be seperate from the groups that came with the general buddypress installation. It will need to show a Photo, group info, phone number, location, instructor etc. I suppose i could use the group page template and just copy it but not quite sure what to do after that. I’m certain i’d have to alter the database but i’m just not sure the best way to go about doing it and what functions to to copy and adjust in order to get this done.
Any and all help is welcome. I’m using WP v 3.2.1 and buddypress 1.2.9
Please help
I’m with the same kind of issue here. Any ideas?
I’m using WP 3.2.1 + BP 1.5 Beta.
Sure thing – thanks @karmatosed.
Cool thankyou, keep them coming.
@boonebgorges : sorry to ask but can you remove the text on those pages as it’s no longer valid and unless I’m wrong editing pages messes them up with iframe?
Thanks so much @mercime! Fix worked- pages are displaying in the correct area, but now the sidebar is displaying beneath the content ( http://www.rowvision.com/members/miguel/profile/ ). Can I get a little assistance with this too? I saw a thread earlier with the same prob and now can’t seem to find it.
You presume correct, I have gone through the wordpress to buddypress codex page.
Also can you explain explain a little more about changing the tags wrapped around page titles. Where should I look to see how my theme does the page title tags?
Thanks again- MM
Sorry I can’t edit my post. I get a page not found .. but I have another plugin that’s not working with BuddyPress 1.5 Beta. It’s a fairly simple plugin though. But not sure why it’s not working.
BuddyPress Activity Stream Bar
BuddyPress 1.5 Compatibility is now complete for CubePoints Buddypress Integration as of version 1.9.3!
Big thank you to @foxly and the team at BuddyPress-Media for helping me get this working for BuddyPress 1.5!
