== project management tool (with a budget tracker would also be cool) that has the ability to be integrated with wordpress and BB. ==
If by BB. you mean BuddyPress (BP), then try out https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-gtm-system/
I also had this problem and went through a deep analysis.
The issue stems from the fact that Bluehost requires that the email be sent from an account that exists on the system. They do this as an anti-spam technique and they require this even if the mail is originating from within the system.
Enter WordPress. PHP uses a mail function mail(). WordPress maps this to wp_mail() and pretty much everyone uses the wp_mail for the plugins within WordPress. This makes sense as it allows customization of WordPress mail at a relatively low cost of performance.
Enter Buddypress. Buddypress places a filter upon wp_mail() such that all email originate from the user ‘noreply’ on the domain such that end users don’t reply to the notifications. Sounds cool.
But remember that Bluehost does not allow email to be sent from non-accounts and that’s the catch.
Using a foreign SMTP does not work for Bluehost blocks those ports. Using local SMTP will work but you need to provide the right setup and credentials. Finally, using mail-from plugin works since it filter’s the Buddyhost filter changing the email from address back to a valid Bluehost email account.
Hopefully, this explains what is happening and you can choose which strategy you want to use to fix the problem.
I am using buddypress and there is a shopping cart attached. I was able to change every reference to https and make the page sure except for the user avatar which displays at the top bar of every page. How can I change the path to https?
I am using the following code to get the avatar:
bp_loggedin_user_avatar( ‘type=thumb&width=23&height=23’ );
no im the server admin
got the lates wp version 3.1.2 in german and i just installed the latest buddypreass 1,2.,8from the plugin search and its a Linux Debian server Apache/2.2.16

WP/BP versions? Linux/Windows hosting? Did you backup database and server files? Have you contacted webhost tech support – if you have one – if they have back up of your site at least from the past week?
waht the everyone can post but no one can help me what the *** *** *** buddypress
@dubsel Are you using the BuddyPress sidebar plugin? Or perhaps widget logic? If using those plugins still don’t allow you place widgets where you want on the specific pages you want, you could always roll up your sleeves and do some customization with your buddypress theme and what it calls for the sidebar on specific page templates.
@djpaul Got delayed but working on it 
ill see, are you certain it displays the ads on the buddypress group and profile pages etc? thanks
I have asked this before and was told how to do it. I want to take the login and sign up off the top of my site which automatically shows up.
The way i was told to do it and it worked, up to now was
go to file manager >buddypress>wp-content>plugins>buddypress>bp themes>bp default (or what ever theme ur using) > functions php and add the following line at top (line 3)
remove_action( ‘bp_adminbar_menus’, ‘bp_adminbar_login_menu’, 2 );
This worked perfect on my test site. My main site which is the most up to date WP, it does not work, so I can only assume its the up to date script.
Any help please,
Thanks
@dubsel
Try Advertising Manager. I’ve had no problems at all with it. It works like a charm and automatically recognizes most ad networks.

Hi guys,
I know this discussion has been held before a pretty long time ago, but I took the time to write down something about how I think BuddyPress and the community in general, is doing. You can read it here:
http://bp-tricks.com/featured/the-current-state-of-buddypress-a-critical-anylyzis-of-the-project/
Hopefully it will spark a healthy (and sensible) discussion on how to improve our community and BuddyPress itself. I’m posting it here because I’d like to get as many BP minded people to read it 
Greetings,
Bowe

sorry can I have my patience back please, need it for something else that’s causing me stress.
Hi everyone – You might have noticed that buddypress.org is partly broken at the moment. (Plugin groups, including plugin forums, are not working.) We’re looking into it, and will have an update as soon as possible. Thanks for your patience!
Hi! @mercime Sorry for the delay in getting back.
Problem is ONLY with Firefox. And only with my ‘live’ site not my development site.
Here is the development site: http://kenrichman.com/harc/
Here is the live site: http://www.harc-network.org
Firefox cannot load the front page.
If you have Firefox on a mac could you try it? If you get the same problem the firewall will block you from the site’s virtual server.
I am using the latest Firefox on a mac.
I’m in the process of developing a new CG educational community site, http://www.cgstudent.co.uk. When a user visits the site and selects Community > Blogs a Error 403 Forbidden page is returned. Does anyone know why? I’ve already set the permissions for cgstudent.co.uk/httpdocs/blogs to 755. Does the permission levels of the blogs.dir folder (found in wp-content folder) and/or the bb-blogs folder (found in wp-content/plugins/buddypress folder) affect this? If so how?
I’m out of ideas on this one. Any ideas anyone?
The page is http://cgstudent.co.uk/blogs/
I am very sorry for bumping, but this is sort of a crucial problem I need to fix, as this website is somewhat time-sensitive. If anyone has an idea on how to remedy it, I would be extremely grateful.
Again, I am just looking for a way to use the plugin instead of the default registration page.
@hnla do you know of any tutorials for noobs like myself?
