Not sure, but it is probably done in the Buddypress menu.
Buddypress – General Settings – Disable activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts? YES
and/or
Buddypress – Component Setup – Activity Streams: Allow users to post activity updates and track all activity across the entire site. NO
Hi everyone!
I’ve been using WP/BP for a little while on the blog http://www.ZesterandPeeler.com without any glitches.
Then, all of a sudden, my gallery upload started acting up. When I try to upload an image to include in a post, I receive the error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_post_thumbnail_id() in /homepages/26/d354374997/htdocs/wp-admin/includes/media.php on line 1292
I tried with different images, including images I’ve uploaded before.
I am using WP 3.0.4 and BP 1.2.7
The theme I am using is the BuddyPress Default 1.2.7
Can someone shed some light on why this is happening?
Thank you.
Hi,
My aim is to have a normal site and a buddypress community on one domain.
This is what I did:
1) http://www.Mydomain.com – I installed WordPress and created a MySQL database. ( did not activate multi user)
– Standard single user WordPress
2) http://www.Mydomain.com/buddypress – Created a subdirectory on my server called “Buddypress”
– Installed a complete WordPress installation in this directory
– Activated WordPress Multi User
– Created a MysQL database
– Installed and activated Buddypress
My understanding is that you can only install Budypress on all your sites (and not have a single WP and Budypress together – so that’s why I did the above.
Doing things this way might take longer because some plugins are used by “both”. But I feel that this is easier manageable and will help me keep things seperate.
This totally works – so the question is : is this right ?
Well you could replace
`
case “Who’s Online Avatars”:
return $translations->translate( “Who’s Online…” );
break;
`
for
`
case “Join Group”:
return $translations->translate( “Follow” );
break;
`
in the example in the link
but as join appears quite a lot of times in buddypress, in different combinations, it might be better just to add your own language file….
I dunno, there should be a chunk of code that is telling buddypress to display the sidebar for the profile page. Or, there should be a chunk of code that would get rid of the side bar for the profile page. I’ll have to skim over that article. You should just be able to use that “full page” template but I’m not even sure where to modify this section. I think it’s under members-profile-profile.php but I could be wrong.
hi @henry0,
i am also new to buddypress and trying to do some reading. have you tried using author page template (author.php)? like the one mentioned here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Author_Templates
i was not able to test it right now due to some access restrictions. but if anyone could confirm this it will greatly appreacited (i need it also) 
Hello, I am new in the site. It took me a while but I found a solution for the autocomplete feature, but the problem is that it can only be fixed changing a Buddypress core file, and that’s not the way. Anyway here is how I did it (found the code in this forum, don’t remember where exactly, so I am not the author of the code I am sharing, sorry about that). In the file “wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-messages/bp-messages-cssjs.php”:
Line 37, the original code: ( Comment it )
`var acfb =
jQuery(“ul.first”).autoCompletefb({urlLookup:’root_domain . str_replace( ‘index.php’, ‘wp-load.php’, $_SERVER ) ?>’});`
Paste this code right after the previous line:
`var acfb = jQuery(“ul.first”).autoCompletefb(
{urlLookup:’root_domain . ‘/wp-load.php’; ?>’}
);`
It works for me with the latest version of Buddypress (1.2.7) and with the Friends feature enabled. My question is if it would be possible to include this in the latest Buddypress version so the autocomplete feature works out-of-the-box. I thought it didn’t work for me because I was using a custom buddy theme, but I tested it on a clean install with the default theme and it is broken when you first install it. I think that this way it would work from scratch. Probably you have been already told about this, sorry If I am being repetitive, and thank you for reading !

I hope you’ve also read up on creating and using a child-theme rather than editing bp-default. Makes updating BP a lot easier!

We are using ‘amember’ , from which BuddyPress is pulling “members”. Some of these members are Premium – paying members. Others are not. We wanted to provide the BuddyPress Community for the Premium Members only.
Does anyone know how we can accomplish this? Thanks so much! Here is our site – we don´t have BuddyPress public quite yet. We wanted to resolve this issue first. http://www.lacasarojas.com
This seems like its some sort of rewrite issue – does anyone have an example of what my .htaccess file should look like? I noticed in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bbpress/bb-admin/includes/defaults.bb-htaccess.php there are a bunch of rewrite rules, none of which are in my .htaccess currently.
Then I ask why does everything else work if they don’t have the rewrite rules either, so I don’t think this is the problem. I’m trying to pinpoint the issue but always end up back at square 1…
Also I’ve used the default theme and to edit the (required) to something more like (required, but fake is fine) is in the `/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/register.php` file.
Again thanks Sofian and pcwriter! Made my day!
my details:
WP 3.0.4
Buddypress 1.2.7
BuddyPress Wiki Component Version 1.0.7
I have new buddypress site up and running. A hidden group’s activity is shown in the activity stream to everyone in the world. Fortunately you can’t view the details, but it seems like this activity should truly be hidden.
See: http://lab.greenmap.org/activity/
Anything under Lab Admin should not be visible
After some searching I found the Private Buddypress plugin.
That did the trick.
Something like that is done by the admin bar:
/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-adminbar.php
around line 171
Is that what you mean?
Have you logged out?
If you click on that link (your no. 2) it will send you to homepage if logged in….
Ok, changed it to:
/* Inherit the default theme adminbar styles */
@import url(adminbar.css );
Not much has changed. This time the Admin Bar is now not showing right on the WP Dashboard as well as the site.
I hope that’s right now
Hi, I’m trying to make my Buddypress members directory only viewable by logged-in users, but I’m not having much luck. I’d still like the rest of the site content (regular WordPress posts and pages) to still be visible to logged out users. I’ve been messing around with the information from this post, but I haven’t been able to get anything to work.
I’m running WP 3.0.5 and BP 1.2.7.
I’d really appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks!
And you have installed the Suffusion BP template pack plugin and gone through that process, checked permalink settings, or at least revisted the permalink page to force a refresh; any other issues with links?
/* Inherit the default theme adminbar styles */
@import url( ../../themes/los_angeles/adminbar.css );
That’s more like it!
Thanks for getting back to me.
Ok, so just to clarify:
I have moved adminbar.css into my theme. Then added this line to my style.css in my theme.
`/* Inherit the default theme adminbar styles */
@import url( ../../themes/los_angeles/adminbar.css );`
Is that right?
If it is, then it hasn’t affected anything. Does this tell you something?
