Sorry to sort of bump into a somewhat old topic, but I would like to add that I am also in the need to control user roles in BP. I am using BP for a client who only wants to allow advanced profiles for users with paid memberships. If there’s currently any way I can achieve this, I would really appreciate if anyone gave me a hint towards said solution.
@sbrajesh Thanks, I’ve left a comment. Let’s talk code on the ticket 
@all, great going, nice to see the movement
@mercime, thanks
@djpaul,
just updated the xprofile template tags to cutdown the query for select/multiselect fields. Please have a look here https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/3233
@karmatosed @mercime @bowromir @hnla and anyone else interested in contributing to BP-Default 1.3:
Mercime has generously done a wp.org-style theme review of BP-Default. I’ve created tickets on trac. The master ticket is https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3241
I may add a few more tickets once Mercime has clarified a few details. If you are interested and will commit to resolving one of these, please go into trac and “accept” a ticket so that everyone can see that you have assign it to yourself. If it’s a big visual change, I suggest making a mockup picture and attach it to the ticket so that everyone can give feedback.
If I can be of any help or guidance, I’m on skype as “djpaulgibbs”, on IRC and frequently check my email. Don’t hesitate to get in contact
@gunju2221 jjj has built the new version of bbPress, and obviously integration of that into BuddyPress is planned. Have you checked out the bbPress test installation on http://testbp.org/discussion ?
RE: a BuddyPress UI team. People who are interested in contributing in this way need to have shown their interest by contributing to theme and UI tickets and issues as they crop up. I know some of the people in this thread already have, and do; keep on the good work
Thanks for replying, @mercime ; I already had the default theme, but I deactivated all plugins but BuddyPress, and I still have the exact same issue…
FYI I run BuddyPress 1.2.8 and WP 3.1.2. Perhaps this bug has been fixed in BP 1.3, what do you think?
It seems like users who have commented on my blog posts before they registered still are shown as guests, and not with their Buddypress profile links + avatars. I know that these users were logged in when commenting because their comments showed up correctly in the activity stream. How do I fix this?
@MrMaz, @Bowromir: I’m up for linking up about UI / design on the default theme, buddypress.org and also back end admin interface. As I come from a UI and design / front end more should fit in hopefully with those already volunteering. I would love to get involved in both parts and have done a small amount with some sketches for the dashboard previously for @djPaul.
As previously discussed I would like to suggest the formation of the BuddyPress UI/design team. I think in BuddyPress’s case it should include the default theme as that is the main along with admin UI experience most get.
I am also happy to get involved in CSS documentation which I think is a key issue. I actually think it should all stay in one file but be documented and commented so that it’s easy to navigate and find content. I have done some clean up on the CSS before but suggest this goes deeper with commenting and better organisation. I would like to take that task on even with the default theme as think will benefit others – assuming it’s not being done already.
@Qwindoo that is definitely not the default behavior as you have surmised. Change theme to bp-default and deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress. Then activate your plugins and theme one after another to check which one is triggering the errant behavior.
@carlla sorry for not being clearer. You should not manually transfer the BP template files from the template pack yourself. The template pack process will transfer the BP template files in the backend.

sorry don’t look at the above.Please put the following code in your functions.php

and then you can use something like this in your members/single/profile/edit.php

Hey @Ryan Cronin
.. let me look it up.
@hnla I guess I’m not sure what you mean? I have an ftp server that serves http://network.theunsignedsounds.com and I’ve installed wordpress under that domain. I wondered if I added you to the site, would you be able to pinpoint what the problem is? I’m at a complete loss here and have tried uninstalling/reinstalling a few times to no avail.
@mercime thanks for your help!
When I said “move” I mean “copy db-template-pack/template/Activity folder from plugin to Tweentyten folder”
I think it isn’t a css/html error because no theme loads.
Any other advice?
I’m taking a look on database wp_options, to see if there is something anormal.
Hi, I’m facing a rather weird issue with my BuddyPress install:
When I (logged as an admin) try to view my profile, my messages, my groups… basically anything listed under the “My Account” tab, actually, well I’m systematically redirected to the website’s home page. This does not happen when I’m logged in as any other member: everyone else seems to have access to their profiles.
I have installed a bunch of plugins, the more important ones being ScholarPress and Members… do you think this could actually be a permissions-related issue?
Regards,
I am trying to use the s2member plugin for my registration page, but the BuddyPress registration page keeps overriding it. How can I fix this?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
@Andrea_r – BP MultiNetwork is awesome news indeed. Thank you and wpmuguru
== move the Activity, Registration and Members folders to TwentyTen theme ==
You don’t “move” the BP folders to your theme, you need to
1. have Twenty Ten theme activated
2. install the BP Template Pack plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-template-pack/
3. follow the instructions of the BP Compatibility Process https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
If you need some pointers for the whole process, read this – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/bp-template-pack-walkthrough-level-easy-2/
@djpaul
Yeah, it’s definitely not something I see happening before CTPs are mapped out. It’s a little too late in the game to try something that big for 1.3, and it would be a much easier transition to wait for CPTs. Just figured I would throw it into the mix.
@nuprn1 what code can I use to hide the div new-topic-post in html??? And where would I make this change??? I am a noob!!! Thanks!

I’m trying to use the TwentyTen theme as a BuddyPress theme.
That is what I already did:
– add the tag “buddypress” to style.css
– intall the Buddypress Template Pack Plugin.
– move the Activity, Registration and Members folders to TwentyTen theme
But when I active the Buddypress nothing appear on homepage.
What am I forgetting to do?

Since Ron is the one behind getting this to work, keeping tabs on our WPmu tutes blog would be the place to ask first.
@ecomonkey – those directives are put in there when you enable the network to start. you remove them to help with multiple network. (that’s the “site” value. each site in the code is, in fact, a network)
