Mhm, your install may be broken.
Delete the entire plugin, and re-install buddypress, it should fix it.
I just upgraded to wordpress 3.1, and installed BuddyPress 1.2.8. However, the plugin doesn’t get activated because of this error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_multisite() in /*****/****/****/****/****/****/html/xtremz/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core.php on line 287
I don’t have a multisite WP installation, so I’m wondering how this error came to be. Help!
@larrysmith1000 If you’re created a child theme of bp-default theme, did you surround the code in functions.php file with opening “ at bottom?
Deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and change to bp-default theme, clear cache and see if you can now create a group. I assume you did not disable Groups in BuddyPress > Components. https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-buddypress-components/
Btw, what do you mean by “There is no such thing like “Create a group” in the backend.”? You create a group in front end of site.
If I recall, fishbook theme is a child theme of bp-default theme. So if there’s no header.php there, download a copy here https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/tags/1.2.8/bp-themes/bp-default/header.php – download link at the bottom of the page. Delete lines 61-64, then upload to server wp-content/themes/fishbook folder

Ok. Thanks for your efforts though.
While BuddyPress can be activated network-wide in a multisite installation to aggregate data from subsites, there can only be one instance of BuddyPress in either the main site or a secondary blog out of the box at this time.
Bearing that in mind, again out of the box, you could rename “Groups” as “Cities” and move forward with that. https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/ – esp. test drive BuddyPress at http:/testbp.org

and in general, https://codex.buddypress.org/home/
I am looking to set up a ‘Birthday’ profile field in Buddypress that displays a month and date, but not a year. I have not been able to figure out how to remove the year drop-down box from the options on the “Edit Profile” page. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Not a buddypress problem or issue.
Go to the wordpress.org forums. https://wordpress.org/support/
I’m bowing out. @hnla‘s the man to do the job 
== Not quite, I removed the code from the config.php and the above from .htaccess ==
@harounkola so you changed it back to single WP install with BuddyPress. I still see the BP components – groups, members, etc.
Deactivate all plugins including BuddyPress and change to default twentyten theme before creating a network. There are also other reasons why your pages go blank and/or you can’t access wp-admin. One of them is that you need to increase memory limit in your server. Example of where to change it in your php.ini file e.g. to 32MB first, and if that doesn’t work, increase to 64MBis here.

It took a while.. but this should be pretty much all you need to know about setting up a CDN with MaxCDN/W3 Total Cache in combination with BuddyPress. The good parts for the people who already have a CDN running can be found at the end.. Hope it’s useful!

Hey I have WordPress MU installed with BuddyPress, and I was wondering if I could have a login/register page BEFORE anyone is able to view anything? Currently, when you go to the site it displays a blog, I would like a full page with the “login” forms and if the person doesnt have an account he can “signup”
Thanks so much!
Hi,
I am trying to change the URL where non-loggedin users are being redirected. To do this i did:
1. Add the next code to function.php:
function redirect_nonloggedin_users($current_uri, $redirect_to) {
// Redirect users to the homepage
// Caution! Exclude the homepage from ‘Private BuddyPress’ options
// to avoid redirection loops!
return get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/?from=’ . $redirect_to;
}
add_filter(‘pbp_redirect_login_page’, ‘redirect_nonloggedin_users’, 10, 2).
2. Create the file:”C:xampphtdocspruebawp-contentpluginsbuddypress-private-community-configmm-buddypress-private-community-config.php”
with the next content:
MM_BUDDYPRESS_PRIVATE_COMMUNITY::$WP_SUB_FOLDER = ‘prueba’;
MM_BUDDYPRESS_PRIVATE_COMMUNITY::$ALLOWED_URIS = Array(‘/contacts’, ‘/about’, ‘/welcome’, ‘/pagina-ejemplo’);
MM_BUDDYPRESS_PRIVATE_COMMUNITY::$REDIRECT_TO_URL = site_url(‘pagina-ejemplo’);
However, it seems not consider de config file altought i think i have saved it in the correct directory.
Any clues?
thanks!
@hnla
Thanks. You or anyone else willing to handle it can email me at trcapromo@gmail.com so we can work out details.
Just used those details to have a quick look, and you have a few layout issues but nothing that looks too problematical.
The account is simply a subscriber one so we won’t be able to get to see any files such as the requested page.php one, for that a higher level of access would be required.
As for Access I tend to ask of clients that they change all access details immediately that I have completed any work and no longer require access and to confirm that fact.
I haven’t the time to look in any great detail right at this minute as it’s getting late in the UK , but I’ll keep an eye on the thread and if no resolution I’ll try and have a look in the morning for you.
I am wondering how do I change the pages my Fishbook buddypress theme displays. In the upper right it says Members, Activity, groups and I would like to hide or not display the Groups button/ page.
All I would need would be a signed contract (which I could generate) saying that once the job is done, you will no longer access the site through the admin account.
If anybody can handle the corrections necessary for me, I’d be willing to compensate you.
Somebody else designed the site for me so I’m not sure how they took care of that stuff.
I just game permission for the demo account to bypass paypal. While this doesn’t change the bizarre facts that only the “Site Admin” link gets you to this point now. However, it will allow access for this account at this point.

Now it allows this user to do to some other “Dashboard” section that looks like it is only about profile info.
