@hnla I can always count on you to set me straight when I don’t think things through 
@frizzo What hnla said 
BUMP – same here. Going crazy trying to figure out how to find the code to do this. How come there’s no response from Buddypress on this topic?
@pcwriter
It does to the extent that a browser constructs history from page metadata that is supplied by the title tag BP uses the function bp_page_title to add metacontent in my 1.3 install all the dir component pages return ‘Directory | Site Name’ so this might be a failing of BP and needs to be looked into as these tags are important and haven’t had the attention they needed in the past (think things were addressed recently iirc?)
@frizzo if you believe this is incorrect behavior please test it out and prepare a brief outline of the issue and raise a ticket on the BP trac system (using your BP login) this way things will be looked at, asking a question here will likely not resolve anything. It helps the project the more people test and raise issues reporting then to the ticket system.
I know that, but when I’m viewing my history of pages visited, I see the titles and on my site they are all just mysite.com for every page.
@frizzo
Browser history has nothing to do with Buddypress. Check your browser settings.
I notice when browsing my buddypress site that all my pages have the title “Mysite.com” listed in the browser history. Would be nice to have it show as “Mysite.com – page I’m on” or “Mysite.com – John’s profile”
Anyway to do this or make it more customized?
Note this is for multiple BPs on multiple networks, not multiple BPs on multiple sites
Thanks @Chouf1
After doing some diggin around my server, AllowOverride was set to None. Setting this to All and restarting the server fixed the issue.
Sorry, that is not enough to create a theme which you will need to run WordPress/BuddyPress. You can choose from among the free themes in the WP repo at https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/
If you have any trouble with WP installation or themes, please post your questions at https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting
@Jcollier – creating a post here at BuddyPress.org or in your own BP installation?
I have a wordpress network site where I have:
mainsite.com <– main site (instance of buddypress)
site2.mainsite.com <– main site (another instance of buddypress)
site3.mainsite.com <– main site (another instance of buddypress)
Currently I have the themes looking different but only the mainsite.com is working were I can register users and post status updates.
I my assumption wrong that I could have many instances of buddypress with wordpress network?
I have the same problem with birth date in french.
Warum ?
According to this ticket, this would be solved in 1.3 (even if this problem was mentionned 2 years ago…)

Concerning private msg date, you can read this:

Creating a post is redirecting to the home page for me (perhaps an auto 404 redirection?).
The forum search also bounces to the home page.
Hi,
I’m running a german BuddyPress community and thus using the German language file.
It works fine except for the translation of the month names in the profile: the date of birth and the date when a private message was sent still show the English month names. Other plugins, such as GigPress, use the German names.
I can change the date format (such as j. F Y), but that “F” still shows the English month.
In the German language file of BuddyPress the month names are as well translated (e.g. “Juli” instead of “July”) as in the one of WordPress itself.
I searched the whole BuddyPress installation and found the English names in bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-templatetags.php, too, so I translated them in this file. I also translated them in wp-includes/locale.php
But still the English month names show up…?!
The functions of the message date is:
(my-buddypress-theme/members/single/messages/message-loop.php)
Does anyone know why BuddyPress won’t use the German month names and how to change that?
Thanks,
neontrauma
The first thought is cache plugin not working well in your install. The second thought is outdated theme or plugin.
1st step in troubleshooting, change to bp-default theme and deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress.
– open wp-config and add `define( ‘MULTISITE’, false ); `

Been stuck on this issue for about a day now. Ive installed a clean install of wordpress / buddypress and all sub pages (groups, forums, members) do not work. I receive page cannot be found.
I found this resouce http://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/install-buddypress-on-a-secondary-blog/ which tells this is for network mode. I am not using network mode.
Any ideas or resources I should be using to install this on a sub domain?
@drhoussem The article I linked to was quite clear. For more assistance re adding widget areas in your theme, WP.org forums is the place to go –> https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting
@boone –
I used to be able to see a list of my forum posts.
That is no longer available.
They used to show up under the activity tab.
It was very helpful to review prior forum posts
I tried Forums -> Topics Started etc.
Nothing works.
Is there a different way to accomplish this?
.
i haven’t inderstand it, could explaine steps here please?
After posting a forum topic, when I click on Edit link, it goes to 404 page.
I’ve been having issues with the search to. Doesn’t matter what you type in I always get sent to the home page.
Member activity streams, eg https://buddypress.org/community/members/boonebgorges/, only show activity updates, not forum posts, etc
