if I am the installer and the base admin of a wordpress installation that has full control over everything – from how the site functions to even if it exists – which has buddypress how do I administrate and watch over groups? private, public – the content and everything?
if I cant please make this a feature request
@jonobradley
Looks like you’ll have to contact the theme developer then to find out where the nav is, sorry can’t help more 
@jonobradley
Open your theme’s header.php (or equivalent) and find the code for your main navigation. In your theme, you’ll find it in div id="nav_row". There’s probably a call to wp_nav_menus there. Add the following before the closing ul tag (should work 😉 )
<li></li>
See the codex for more: https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/modifying-the-buddypress-admin-bar/
Hope this helps 🙂
hey
my template was created with artisteer, thats why its written this way..
i’ll try to get further with this walkthrough, thanks !
If you are on a $5/month hosting account, pretty much anything you do will eventually be slow.
Your language files are currently suffixed with “WyoDLC”. Try using “en_US” or whatever your WordPress locale is.
If you want to keep your language files with the suffix “WyoDLC”, use this snippet in /wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:
`define( ‘BPLANG’, ‘WyoDLC’ );
if ( file_exists( WP_LANG_DIR . ‘/buddypress-‘ . BPLANG . ‘.mo’ ) ) {
load_textdomain( ‘buddypress’, WP_LANG_DIR . ‘/buddypress-‘ . BPLANG . ‘.mo’ );
}
`
Also make sure to rename your languages directory back to /wp-content/languages/.
If this still doesn’t work, try regenerating your .po and .mo or post about the “weirdness” you’re experiencing.
its biofuelsdigest.com/digestgroup/members – so there’s some crossover but its not the same.
Even the bbPress plugin comes with a small set of fallback template files (as a child theme of twentyten) to display forums.
I didn’t say we’d get rid of bp-default! bp-default can continue to be a parent theme. Even if we backport the simplest changes from bbPress for now like get_template_part() to BP (instead of locate_template() like Bowe mentions above), this will make things very easy to build a plugin to serve BP template files without copying them over to the WP theme (as BP Template Pack does now).
In my unreleased plugin, I created a function similar to bbp_get_template_part(), copied bp-default BP-only template files to my plugin directory and swapped out locate_template() for this new function. The plugin served BP template files. Then, combined with this, all you’d need to is create a header-buddypress.php (or footer-buddypress.php, etc.) in your WP theme to make it gel with BuddyPress.
== Everything in the forums, activity and groups folders is working fine. Anything functionality that points to the members folder redirects to the Members Directory. ==
Your http://sitename.com/BPfolder/ doesn’t happen to be actually http://sitename.com/members/ ? There’s a BP bug when you install BP in a directory with same name as one of its components, in this case members.
I am developing a custom component with the help of the BP Custom Posts API, and I’ve figured many things so far. But now I’m stuck in trying to make the AJAX search for my custom posts work as with the other components. Every time I type in said component’s search box and hit the submit button, I’m sent to the site’s home page instead. I have been looking at both the BuddyPress and BPCP plugins’ sources, but have yet to find a clear explanation of how the search is implemented. While I could simply do with a typical WordPress search, I would rather keep it consistent with the rest of BuddyPress.
All I know is that bp_ajax_querystring is somehow involved in passing the query that is to be executed; but how this interacts with the rest of the system, I am not quite sure.
If someone could shed some light on this for me, I would be really grateful.
Thanks.
Hello,
I’m currently developing this WP site: http://www.doghousegamer.com – we’re currently using a free theme just to get the site on its legs etc, however I am developing a new site for DHG. You can see it here: http://www.doghousegamer.com/testsite
I would like to get rid of the admin-bar at the top. I can do that, but then I loose the login option and all of the links to the profile/activity/messages/friends etc..
I would love to add the “MY ACCOUNT” link (as an example) with the drop down menu to my main Navigation (under the DHG logo)
I am using BuddyPress with the BuddyPress Template Pack to make BP work with the PlatformPro theme.
Thanks for your helpful responses! 🙂

Hi Mercime,
WP was working fine (and is), running 3.1.2.
BP, running Version 1.2.8.
It appears that the problem is restricted to the members folder. Everything in the forums, activity and groups folders is working fine. Anything functionality that points to the members folder redirects to the Members Directory.
@cnorris23 Thank you. Cool. Saw it in dashboard running BP trunk – WP 3.2 beta 1 
Hi Mercime,
WP/BP are installed in normal subdirectories.
Thanks, Jim
@jml1618 just to clarify, is your WP installed like this https://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory (because this set up won’t work with BP) or is your WP/BP installed in a normal subdirectory?
Hi dear buddies,
I don’t know if it’s the right place to post this message ? I apologize if it’s not the case.
I am looking for a freelance developper to work on a project already started : http://www.avygeo.fr/
I need someone who has a good knowledge of WordPress and BuddyPress.
Currently, WordPress and a few plugins are installed. This website is a shared travel blog. It is planned to be more than that 
=> First, the current code will have to be cleaned from some bugs.
=> Then, more services will have to be added, especially social functionalities like buddy list management, buddy news notifications, private messages, forum…
If the core code is made, I can help to do the PHP/XHTML integration.
Last but not least : French speaking would be highly appreciated !
Thank you for your questions / replies
I am having the same problem. I am using BP-default and deactivated all plug-ins except BuddyPress, and am getting re-directed back to the Members page when clicking on any My Account features such as accessing profile, friend requests – anything that has the format `http://sitename.com/BPfolder/members/administrator/anythingels` – also happens when I log in on a test account as an ordinary Member, not just as Administrator.
I’m still having real trouble with this, can anybody please help me?

– Note that the plugin will not be updated for future versions of BuddyPress (like 1.3+) by current plugin author. Hopefully, someone will take over the plugin.
Or, check this out http://bp-tricks.com/coding/manage-group-creation-by-creating-a-group-request-form/
@carlla good to know you’ve got it working now.
Cheers.
Hi All. I require a “Donate” button which should appear only in the Groups as like in this website. On clicking it, it should connect to Paypal as it works great here in this website! Could anyone guide me whether any plugin available?
@mercine Thanks again. I tested the memory options and it seems not be the problem 
After I have done that test I remember another test I haven’t done yet. I deactivated all plugin ( buddypress too ) and actived only buddypress ( first ) and bp-template-pack. I get twentyten working again.
I can’t believe I haven’t done a silly test like that before #fail
The other plugins are still working and it seems not be interfering on buddypress anymore.
So, thanks very much for your help
