BuddyPress.org

We modded D’Arcy Norman’s solution above so it would work on BuddyPress. At least it did a while back. Someone wanna give this a whirl again?

madyogi-

Have you ever heard of the Open Stack? It is on the BP roadmap for version 1.4. This will address your concerns.

Kevin-

I just noticed that there’s an error in the way each function call is coded. Try this instead:

<?php __( next_posts_link( '« Previous Entries' ), 'buddypress' ) ?>

<?php __( previous_posts_link( 'Next Entries »' ), 'buddypress' ) ?>

Let me know if that works.

You can read more about this here:

https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/787

Try the custom filters for BP plugin – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-profile-filters-for-buddypress/

Allows you / your users to be more prescriptive about what BP ‘auto-links’. Don’t think it will completely stop BP auto-linking some things – though you could, if you wished, tell the plugin to exclude ALL fields from being auto-linked.

You / users can also use the square brackets ‘[ ]’ in profile fields to specify words or phrases they do want linking.

The plugin’s pretty handy for specifying fields like web site / twitter that shouldn’t be auto-linked.

It means more code in buddypress-core. It might not be a lot, but even small things add up after a while. All I’m saying is that it should be a theme option and not bp-core.

For anyone concerned, I encountered the same problem reported by outolumo and can’t happen to use the workaround. I submitted to TRAC…https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/1356. Will see what happens!

you are most welcome

I am glad your site is working now.

I am not sure about facebuddy theme though.

well,follow these steps

1.Get a backup of bp-themes(I hope you already did it) and delete it from wp-content,there should be no folder named bp-themes

2.Now copy the bp-sn-parent and bp-default from the buddypress/bp-themes(the new buddypress plugin you have downloaded) to wp-content/themes

3.Go to wp-dashboard->Site Admin->Themes and enable bp-default

4.Go to appearance and activate bp-default ,hopefully ,you site should return back to normal.

You may need to do some extra styling on the child theme to get them to look right with the buddypress elements. But the buddymatic framwork has most of the work done for you.

Not sure about the php errors – depends on what they are. Ron’s been testing the Early Morning child theme as well.

have you removed bp-themes folder from the wp-content

The original poster has since deleted ther account, and as there are several solutions in this thread, I’m marking it as resolved.

Figured it out.

To anyone wondering, just change “Template: thematic” to “Template: buddymatic” in the style.css

I haven’t gotten any of the child themes from here http://themeshaper.com/thematic/ to work properly with buddypress. They all seem to have formatting errors, and sometimes php errors.

Should they all work fine? Am I doing something wrong?

Sorry for the triple post.

Does the Kubrick / K2 theme allow users to add a logo to it’s big blue header?

Also, how does letting an admin upload a logo (as a custom config option) mean more coding? The idea is that it would mean zero coding. You would go into the theme settings, click a button, upload a graphic, done.

And trust me… CSS is easy for me and you… but as a developer… I’m happy when a client can just figure out how to log in and write a post! Most people can’t handle anything more complicated than email and facebook.

hi Olive

have you checked this thread.Hopefully this should help you as your buddypress is not on the root domain but on sub blog.

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/can-i-run-non-bp-theme-on-tld-and-bp-theme-on-subdomain-all-on-same-wpmu-install

as It seems from your error description it is bp-genealogies theme.

try deactivating this theme ,and activating the default buddypress theme.Is the error still showing ?

Well,Just to let you people know,I had written this plugin for buddypress 1.0.X version and It works upto buddypress 1.0.3.I last tested it(on request of one of user) for buddypress 1.0.3+wpmu 2.8.4a and It was working.

So hopefully,It will solve your issue if you are using buddypress 1.0.3

But again,because of security reasons It is strongly recommended to upgrade to most recent version of wpmu+buddypress.
