I’ve reviewed the different topics on how to customize your BP admin bar, but honestly all I want to do is remove the “Sign Up” link so that when a member is logged out, it will still show the admin bar. I had to disable the admin bar when someone is logged out because we did not want someone to register until they became a paid member.
Can someone provide some pretty basic instructions on how to accomplish this task? I read the instructions doc, but I’m still confused. By the way, I am using a Headway theme integrated with BuddyPress and it works pretty well, except for some of the CSS styling is off. I hear there’s a Headway/BuddyPress compatible plugin in the works!
Thanks in advance for your help!
I have installed the BP-Chat plugin, and it works perfectly fine on my computer. I also use the BuddyPress Mobile plugin. When I view my BuddyPress site on my iPod touch, it displays the BP-Chat bar at the bottom of the page. When I scroll down, the chat bar stays in the same place.
Is there a code I can use to disable the BP-Chat plugin on the Mobile Theme only? Maybe something I can add to the functions.php file?
@Djpaul is probably happy if they used achievements 
Seems like mashable.com is running Buddypress now. Anyone have any info on this?
@whitneygreer thank you but I can’t seem to find a plugin that does that. Would you be kind and throw a link at me? Thank you.
thanks @cnorris23 ,
but did not work for me again, don’t know, maybe I have some other function, which does not allow this one to work correctly. probably, will have to change core file and put it in some reminder.
@sienteastu glad you resolved your cropping issue and thanks for coming back and letting us know about the plugin conflict.
Hello,
I’ve been deceived by your description that says “anywhere on this site” where there’s @user will issue an email notification to that user. I’ve tried it and it seems to only work in the activity stream (profile posts). Is there a way to add it to blog posts as well?
I am making a site where I want both registered and non-registered users to be able to visit a group and post into the activity stream for that particular group.
Ideally, it would ask them to enter their name to post, but it would still work if activity posts by non-registered users just went under the name “Anonymous”. Thus allowing new visitors to the site to see how it operates before signing up. I have been looking everywhere for a solution to this issue, but have not been able to find anyone or anything to help. A plugin would be good, but if anyone has an advanced knowledge of BP scripting I would love to know where in my code I could go to make this happen.
Please keep in mind if you respond to this topic that it is NOT regarding normal WP posts, but specifically the activity of a group within BuddyPress.
Thanks in advance!
Have you tried re-installing bbPress in the Forums Setup menu (under the buddypress menu) in the dashboard? What versions of WP/BP are you using?
Easiest way is using the BuddyPress Block Activity Stream Types plugin by Rich Fuller – https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-block-activity-stream-types/
I need this xprofile fields import for dropdown menu too, I have many fields to import with big list of options , but this solution above looks like less work by editing it in buddypress one by one –
, does someone knows better and a little bit more painless ?
My buddypress/Multisite install has a bug that forum topics and forum messages cannot be posted! Any ideas?
@momotombopuro That sounds like a bug. BP is supposed to remove those blogs from all BP listings, including the admin bar. If you’re able to reproduce this behavior, you should open a ticket at trac.buddypress.org with the steps to reproduce.
as far as I know,there is no buddypress or wordpress themes similar to this site.
but it is possible to develop something like this using buddypress.
I’ve developed similar add to fav for my project but haven’t included to show who have added it to fav yet, but the functionality is already there.I’m planing to do that in the future.
I think it’s the best to hire a experienced developer who can develop BP theme like this for you from scratch.
BTW this site is awesome !
TX, for sharing.
Hello all,
I there any buddypress/wordperss themes that have this features already?:
http://shadowness.com/
Please look around there and see the features like adding pictures to users fav
and when you click on fav you can see who have added that pic to there fav.
And olso: Followers, Following, Subscriber and so on.
Thank you
Thank you, Boone. On a related question. When blogs are deleted by the blog owner or blog administrator in my BuddyPress site, they continue to appear on the black horizontal bar menu with the label “my blogs”. In contrast, groups disappear all together when the group /administrator owner deletes them. Same happens with forums. How do we make the system delete listed blogs when their creators decided no to have them any longer? Does this have anything to do with blog settings or configuration?
Hey!
I am creating a buddypress website for a client but the homepage and other text pages doens’t work although activity, members and groups works.
http://partofpeople.dk/
Is there a way to sort it out?
Best regards

Heads up: the combined plugin in underway, and will actually be a very powerful plugin where users can vote/rate/like ANYTHING in wordpress and buddypress. I’m developing this for another client, who is paying for the core functionality to vote on images, and they don’t need all the fancy stuff that usually comes in a plugin, such as nice admin options, translation, hooks, filters, etc. They also don’t need to vote groups, forum posts, blog posts, custom post types, blog comments, activity items, etc. With donations I’m also going to write scripts to convert old plugin data to the new plugin, same with group reviews plugin.
If people in the community would like these things, then please make a donation so i can do the extra work and release it properly to the community as an excellent, flexible, extensible, strong plugin. If not donations come it, it will just be for rating images using BP Albums. Even small donations count, so don’t be shy. Paypal donations to deryk@bluemandala.com. I will include all donors in the plugin read me, so please mention any website you’d like me to link to.
To be clear, this plugin is happening 100%, it is already being built. All donations go to the things the community needs that the client does not, as mentioned above. So don’t worry about making a donation and it not being released. 
And as a perk, I’ll email early versions to anyone who makes a donation. (if any of this is getting unethical from an open source standpoint, please let me know!)
I found a solution that works on the theme and supports updates to the core. This solution will let you use the search bar with the drop down menu and search for articles, members and groups.
First, add this javascript inside the head tags in the header.php file of the theme:
`
var check_url = function() {
var value = document.getElementById(“search-which”).value;
if (value==”article”) {
document.getElementById(“search_form”).method=”get”;
document.getElementById(“search_form”).action=””;
document.getElementById(“search-terms”).name=”s”;
}
else {
document.getElementById(“search_form”).method=”post”;
document.getElementById(“search_form”).action=””;
document.getElementById(“search-terms”).name=”search-terms”;
}
}
`
And then replace the search form that comes with buddypress (inside the same header.php file) with this one:
(to avoid confusions just look at the php lines that wrap the form)
` `
`
`
` `
Is your permalink structure correct? Sometimes if the permalink structure is not a certain one buddypress returns 404 pages. If permalink structure is okay then try to look for the .htaccess file on your server as you need to have some code in this file for wordpress to function with other permalink structures. 
If you need help let me know as I set up wordpress with buddypress for my hosting customers.
Hi guys,
I don’t know if there is something I am supposed to have done or not, but on my buddypress installation of my wordpress site, whenever I click a link to register a new user, check my inbox, friend connections etc, I always get a 404 error. How am I supposed to fix this? The buddpress plugin has definately been installed, and is still located in wp-contentpluginsbuddypress. Am I supposed to move it or anything? I’ve tried but to no avail.
Is this normal or have I done something totally wrong?
Thanks for the help

Finally i find my issue !
In skeleton component (1.4) :
/* Only load the component if BuddyPress is loaded and initialized. */
function bp_example_init() {
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/includes/bp-example-core.php’ );
}
add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘bp_example_init’ );
Action bp_init isn’t good ! I change it for bp_include and all works fine !
Hi,
I’m a new user of buddypress and i try to create a plugin which add some new root slug to bp.
But i have a problem : it didn’t works (my first screen don’t appear on : http://mybpwebsite/myslug/ )
I try to log my function setup call and it appears that none of my setup function are called ( myslug_setup_globals, myslug_setup_root_component, myslug_setup_nav)
Here is a sample of my code ( i start develop by using the skeleton component ) :
if ( !defined( ‘BP_myslug_SLUG’ ) )
define ( ‘BP_myslug_SLUG’, ‘myslug’ );
function myslug_setup_globals() {
global $bp, $wpdb;
trace(‘myslug globals’);
/* For internal identification */
$bp->myslug->id = ‘myslug';
$bp->myslug->slug = BP_myslug_SLUG;
/* Register this in the active components array */
$bp->active_components[$bp->myslug->slug] = $bp->myslug->id;
$bp->myslug->forbidden_names = apply_filters( ‘myslug_forbidden_names’, array( BP_myslug_SLUG ) );
do_action( ‘myslug_setup_globals’ );
}
add_action( ‘bp_setup_globals’, ‘myslug_setup_globals’ );
function myslug_setup_root_component() {
trace(‘myslug root’);
/* Register ‘myslug’ as a root component */
bp_core_add_root_component( BP_myslug_SLUG );
}
add_action( ‘bp_setup_root_components’, ‘myslug_setup_root_component’ );
function myslug_setup_nav() {
global $bp;
trace(‘myslug nav’);
/* Add ‘Example’ to the main user profile navigation */
bp_core_new_nav_item( array(
‘name’ => __( ‘myslug’, ‘bp-myslug’ ),
‘slug’ => BP_myslug_SLUG,
‘screen_function’ => ‘myslug_screen’
) );
}
add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘myslug_setup_nav’ );
// Screen functions
function myslug_screen() {
global $bp;
trace(‘plop’);
if ( !$bp->current_component == BP_myslug_SLUG) {
return;
}
echo “Yo !!
“;
echo $bp->current_action;
}
trace(‘glob’);
So any idea what’s the problem ?
Thanks
