Hi everyone
I have blog running Worpress 3.1 and a forum with BBpress 1.0.3, both are under the same domain name BUT NOT INTEGRATED AT ALL. I really want to use BuddyPress and integrate my current forum. The documentation of BBpress is old and I know I need first to integrate BBpress With WordPress to make Buddypress work as I expect. Can you please help me to confirm this and guide me in the right direction?
@mercime – Its works perfectly!
Thanks, Mikey3D
Native would be hard to do for every BP site. Configurations are to different. WP app is the same for every blog. You can also use BuddyPress mobile if you want something more optimized.
What theme are you using? Change to bp-default theme, keep all BP/WP plugins deactivated except BuddyPres. If that doesn’t solve it …
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/when-asking-for-support/
That issue is confirmed. Made an enhancement request and they “fixed” it as posted near bottom of page https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2281
Hey guys,
I recently moved my buddypress site to a new server. Downloaded files, and database, and reuploaded to new server. Done this a millions times with wordpress.
Everything worked, apart from the avatars, and group icons.
Also, new avatars can’t be uploaded either, even though the folder is set to writable.
I have a feeling it’s to do with vhosts true location. Anyone know where the true location is in the database? I’m hoping if I correct this to the correct one for the new server it will fix the problem.
Any advice?
Many thanks!
It means wordpress has run out of memory….
Ask your host to increase it. If they won’t ( for instance you host with 1and1 ) then look here and here
Can someone help? @hnla ? @r-a-y ? @mercime ?
Probably not the exact answer, but this could help you (it’s in french but php is in english)

Are you by chance making some sort of change (either manually or through a plugin) to the user_nicename or user_login fields? Or are you using spaces in your usernames?
the closest thing is problably @modemlooper http://buddiphone.com/, although it is not native cocoa code nor released yet.
I tested the regular wordpress iphone app with my buddypress installl and didnt work… its there anything like it?
Thank you
Bowe, have you looked at Cloudflare? Curious what your take would be…
@mercime – yes, we had already had to adopt the solution of writing our own version of bp_core_add_settings_nav() – similarly to your suggestion.
Unfortunately, this doesn’t answer why bp_core_new_nav_default() doesn’t work with the settings menu.
@pluggyboy: Thank you, worked for me also.
@Pisanojm: This stuff is a great motivation to keep writing tutorials for BuddyPress. Great to hear that it helped for your community 
@Gregfielding. you could use the CDN Sync Tool as well: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cdn-sync-tool/.
BUT I would advise you to till install W3 Total Cache and simply disable all the caching functionality. It’s a matter of ticking a few boxes, and only enabling the CDN option. I have not tested the CDN Sync Tool, but the huge benefit of Total Cache is the inclusion of custom files to be served through the CDN:

This is the big trick on getting avatars/group-avatars and static files served with max speeds 
@B1gft
You can add widget areas anywhere you like. See this tutorial to learn how: http://wpmu.org/how-to-widgetize-a-page-post-header-or-any-other-template-in-wordpress/
You should create a child-theme of bp-default first though to avoid having to redo all your modifications when you upgrade Buddypress: https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/
@bowe
Do you know if there is any way to use MaxCDN without W3TC?
I use multiple databases and therefore can’t use W3TC…
It was a good day when Bowe showed me I could use MAXCDN to cache avatars… It was not working with my older AMAZON S3 CDN solution and I was actively trying to find someone for over 7 months to tell me why! Today, I finally got the xcache php opcode to work on both my server and for specifically for BuddyPress (using it for database caching via w3tc). Things are moving along quite nicely now.
The key to maximizing MAXCDN is to cache all of your plugins’ css, images, and javascripts… once you do this, it flies!

With regard to wp-minify or w3tc minify and buddypress, I’ve never been happy with the results of this as usually it will stop something completely from functioning, no matter how careful I was in trying to exclude potential CSS/JS issues individually. I am using wp-minify successfully on a number of less active WordPress sites though… I may give minify a go again some time later, much later! 
Exact same problem at http://www.fishwrench.com — running WP 3.1 and buddypress 1.2.8. Also running buddypress forum extras v0.3.0 and 1.3.2 of the buddypress activity stream.
This is probably unrelated, but the following line is throwing an invalid character error in IE8: $(#signup-welcome).p(;:last-child’).css(‘display’, ‘none’);

Ok, so this has turned into a two part question.
1. In my users activity feed (modified to show both @mentions, status updates, photos from bp-gallery etc) it shows guest posts as follows “@marty hey hows it going” — My Goal is to elinimate the @username and I’ve successfully done this with css by adding “Display: none;” on my “div.activity_data p a:first-child” style selector.
As you can see this has obvious flaws, it hides any first link in the activity feed data, and its hiding my 1st photo on activity updates made by BP-Gallery.
So, what I am trying to do, is add a (id=”remove_mention”) to the link that is generated by buddypress for the @mention so I can hide it.
The closest thing I could find was in (bp-activitybp-activity-filters.php) but had no luck modifying it to include this “id=remove_mention” I could only get it to add the id to all posts.
2. I have the post-form.php working correctly on profiles that are not the logged in users and am able to leave @mentions but having to manually type in the @mention before the message then post.
I would like to include the displayed users mention id to the forms data before being posted, (e.g what I’m doing now “@marty hey hows it going?” would like to type “hey hows it going” and have the @marty attached before posting much like on this site here.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, these are the last two major things I need to overcome before finishing up this site.
