I’m using the plugins BP-Album+ and the Advanced Plugins for Buddypress, but when I upload a picture the photos are supposed to appear as a thumbnail on the side of the profile, but it’s just a white box with a small red X. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Here’s a link to my profile page so you can see what I’m talking about.

You need to look at the other section in dashboard ‘Network Admin’
? Are you sure you have MultiSite enabled ?
Hello everyone!
1) Is it possible to have one blog per each BuddyPress user?
2) If it is, then how do I create/enable one?
I searched through the Dashboard and could not find any settings to create a new blog, nor is it available via BuddyPress bar.
Also this link (http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/cant-create-new-blogs/) suggests that it can be done by: Site Admin -> Options -> Allow New Registrations > set to: “Only Logged In Users Can Create New Blogs”. Well, the current version does not have this in site admin menu. There is a similar menu which states that users can be registered (but nothing about creating new blogs).
My installation details:
I have an installation of WordPress 3.1 (multisite enabled) and BuddyPress 1.2.8 – basically, this is a fresh install.
WordPress is installed in root directory of the website.
I have the following plugins:
1) BP-Album+ (Version 0.1.8.9)
2) BP Group Documents (ersion 0.3.5)
3) BuddyPress Like (Version 0.0.
4) BuddyPress Links (Version 0.5)
5) BuddyPress Wiki Component (Version 1.0.2)
Please help to enable the feature where every BuddyPress user can have his/her personal blog.
Thank you all!
PS: I apologize if I posted this in a wrong section. I am new here…
I know that the premium Gravity Forms plugin can be integrated with BuddyPress in general, but to attach that form specifically to certain group/s would require extra coding to achieve this on your part.
By walkthrough, you mean this one? https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/bp-template-pack-walkthrough-level-easy-2/
The last time I checked out an On Demand theme was almost a year ago, but I remember it has a page.php file where you can see the HTML structure you should impose over the BP template files transferred when you went through the compatibility process with BP Template Pack.
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-docs/
If you create a hidden group, only group admin and invited members of the group can access these pages.
== I prefer keep local forums with the global fourm running along. ==
Actually, @sbrajesh‘s Global Forums plugin can either integrate the groups forums or run separate from the group forums.
I’m having a lot of trouble with editing posts in the forums in buddypress – I’ve got WP, buddypress and bbpress installed. I’ve customised the default buddypress theme, but haven’t modified the edit.php file (wp-content/themes/ThemeName/groups/single/forum/edit.php). The edit page loads fine, but clicking ‘submit’ doesn’t do anything. I haven’t touched the core file obviously.
I can’t figure out which function is being called or which action triggered when I edit a post so that I can dig into it to figure out what might be going on. Any advice would be useful. Of note, the post editing functions on bbPress work fine – but I realize that bbPress and buddypress are totally different even though the forum can be accessed from both…
Thanks!
I have a site where we want to have some pages with content/forms that ONLY members of a certain buddypress group can access, is that possible?
I am currently using wordpress On Demand video theme. In order to get what I want out of my website integrating buddypress would be perfect. I was wondering if anyone knows how to go about all of this. I have been looking at some walkthroughs, but I have not been able to complete process. Any help would be awesome.
Thanks!

I read this blog: http://blogcastor.com/extend/codex/how-to-limit-activity-items-in-buddypress/
So I want to limit my activities to a specific number, but load the rest on another category archive page. I’m currently reading through the code in ‘activity-loop.php’ and I noticed a “Load More” on my page and I’m sure that it has to keep a count of where I am in the `bp_has_activities($args)` or in this line “, somehow the iteration is held once it reaches the max num of activities and resumes from that interator.
Any idea on how to get this done?
Hello,
I am brand new with buddypress but so far I think it is great. I have run into my first problem and I am hoping to get some help.
when I try to send a message to another member I get a red bar with an error “There was an error sending that message, please try again”
When I fill out the form for the message it auto fills in the name of the person after I start typing the name (very cool) and I put in a subject and some text into the message body.
I am not a “computer guy” so I have no idea where to even begin to try to figure it out and I did not find any other answers looking around.
Thanks in advance
== i’ve done so many posts and image uploads, its going to be a nightmare to re do it, ==
If you don’t need to install BuddyPress and make sure it works for all WP and BP upgrades including BP plugins, then you can stay in that setup.
If you do want BP in your setup, backup database and server files and save to hard drive then reverse the process you went through “giving WP it’s own directory”, you can then reinstall WP at domain root.
And the code is giving me an error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’ in xxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php on line 9
Make sure it has been wrapped around “ at the beginning and the end.
But I want it to display their usernames instead of their RealNames.
Use this plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-usernames-only/
If you are going to use an external forum software, then you can just go to dashboard > BuddyPress > Component Set up > Groups – Disabled. Note that if you go this route, you would have to create a plugin to integrate your forum software with BuddyPress.
If you want to use the internal bbPress forum which you install via BuddyPress > Forums Setup , then you have to keep the groups enabled because the default forums are connected to groups. https://codex.buddypress.org/buddypress-site-administration/buddypress-forum/ In this scenario, you could rename and use Groups as the Main Forum sections like https://wordpress.org/support/ and adjust navigation in BP Admin Bar, Main Navigation and Item Navigation accordingly.
“That is what Buddypress does currently. It displays their “RealName” rather than their Username across the site.”
But I want it to display their usernames instead of their RealNames. And the code is giving me an error:

Note that I just created the bp-custom.php file. Oh, and, how can I add a search bar in the adminbar? but not the BP searchbar, i want to add the wordpress default searchbar. Thanks!
<i> How can I make it so it displays the users by nicknames, not by their names?</i>

<i> how can I add Activity and Members links in the adminbar?</i>
Add this to your bp-custom.php:
function pages(){
?>
<li class="no-arrow"><a href="yoursite.com/activity">Activity</a>
<li class="no-arrow"><a href="yoursite.com/groups/">Groups</a>
<?php
}
add_action( 'bp_adminbar_menus', 'pages', 15 );

thanks for reply,
even if I would find necessary octals for my language, it still would not solve my issue, since biggest problem is updates and, of course, I can not ask my users to use octals in their updates.
at the moment they will have to refresh page after every update, maybe some other solutions?
can plugin “RS activity refresh…” solve this issue?
maybe I should completely switch off javascripts for updates?
In that article, they recommended DB cache to be off, yet you have it on. Why?
I want to have a global forum where members can post without joining any group. I searched out this:
`Change the parent forum to use for all BuddyPress group forums:
define ( ‘BP_FORUMS_PARENT_FORUM_ID’, $forum_id );`
Deos this mean to create such a global forum?
