I just reinstalled WordPress & Buddypress completely as I had problems with sending messages (see: http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/error-in-messaging-system/)
With a fresh install I still encounter problems: When entering the first letter of a user in the ‘Send to’ field it doesnt find the specific member in the dropdown field (although it did when I created a friendship between the members). The autocomplete doesnt seem to fuction properly.
The layout of the dropdown box seems incorrect to me to. A lot of zebra styling appears in the box. Also when I enter the first letter of the user (
the word ‘Blog’ appears?!
Please see this picture for clarification on the above: http://i542.photobucket.com/albums/gg408/bramvdveen/Messageerror.jpg
Any help is appreciated as I cant continue to work on my site without this essential feature!
@grimbog
Was there any progress on this? I was interested in the same thing, whether if it’s code or an actual plugin.
Thanks!
Dear Fellas,
I installed bbPress with Buddypress because I want to have forum for my Buddypress.
The Forum is there but when I post a new topic, it shows only this ‘Sorry, there were no forum topics found.’
Then I go to dashboard, forum settings, it says that bbpress is already installed, and this note
‘The forums directory will only work if your bbPress tables are in the same database as your WordPress tables. If you are not using an existing bbPress install you can ignore this message.’
I ask my hosting admin to move bbPress tables to same WordPress database tables, but nothing happens, still the same
Could someone please help me?
Many thanks in advance
Best Regards,
Danny
How to display activity counts update counts and most favorit users on buddypress
This problem has been solved in the newest version of buddypress 1.2.7
When I install the buddypress template pack plugin and activate it my site gets broken doesnt work, then i deleted the files from the server for the plugin and then the site started working.
To make sure i installed it twice both times it didnot work so i had to delete the plugin, is there any way where by I could get the plugin to work.
Every single timestamp related to buddypress is off. Every one. When I post a status update, at first it says 0 seconds ago: then I refresh the page and it says 7 hours. My host and wordpress are correct time because comments have correct time. Should I go back to no 1.2.5.2?
@gunju2221 thank you. No, I don’t use that. Honestly, hear about that first time
.
@crashutah I am using dedicated server with WP-Super cache. I am planning to change my host provider (maybe Hostgator?) and I would love to hear some tips if you have for a good performance and good price
.
Broke for me when upgraded to 1.2.6.
Thanks @djpaul
I just installed wordpress and buddypress today, so everything is new 
Just for a tester, I de-updated the plugin from 1.2.7, to 1.2.6, time still broken.
De-updated again to 1.2.5, and times are correct!
Well, throw me a clue here. Was your BuddyPress always like this? Did the times break when upgrading to BP 1.2.7? Or WP 3.0.4?
I have this problem also. I think it’s pretty poor of buddypress.
I tried setting the time zone in wordpress to New York, setting the time earlier so it set it to “5 hours”, realizing that, from LA, being 9 hours, maybe going further would solve it.
Setting to Moscow Russia I figured would fix the problem, but then it just says “sometime ago”
I NEED to have Times working, because everything is archived through time on my site, (cough cough, @djpaul 👿
This fix, from @r-a-y is outdated: https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset/3142, applied some, does not fix the problem
Thanks for the quick replies.
@modemlooper: When I tried your code, it gave me this…
Warning: Division by zero in C:xampplitehtdocswp-contentthemespartyhookupsindex.php on line 10
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at C:xampplitehtdocswp-contentthemespartyhookupsindex.php:4) in C:xampplitehtdocswp-includespluggable.php on line 890
@Jalien: I will give it a shot, but I’d really prefer to use my own code and keep plugins to a minimum
I tried this and it worked, but I’m wondering if it will break something else or if it’s bad programming practice. Any thoughts?
if ( !is_user_logged_in() ) :
global $bp;
$bp->signup->step = ‘request-details’;
locate_template( array( ‘registration/register.php’ ), true );
else :
index.php as usual
Im having an annoying problem with this theme, any option under community breaks the borders on the left and right sides.
I have latest wp/buddypress and basic plugins. I was installing and deleting some plugins when it broke.
see screen capture
http://www.bbenglish.com/bug.jpg
The left/right sidebars border lines break on some screens ONLY under community pages (groups, members etc). Doesnt happen on home and about pages. Any idea how do quickly fix this??

@hnla : my site is host on windows server. i was check permission for read/write for IIS user.
but i dont know whats going wrong….. 
waiting for your reply.
I am using Buddypress 1.2.7 and WordPress 3.04. Both latest versions you can get.
I am using custom theme, but that should not matter.
All of my timestamps on my site are 7 hours off. Every single one!
The problem is not being caused by timezone, because I set my wordpress time to Denver, and I live in Denver!
Please help!!!! Please! 
To make navigation easier and more colourful, I want to remove the tabs in the Buddypress “pages” like Activity, Profile, Groups, Members and any “pages” added by other Buddypress plugins like Buddypress Links for example.
Then I want to replace these tabs with widgets or hard coded sections with a short summary of the activity or options in each section with graphic as a visual hint of what each was about.
For example the Blogs section would list that user’s blogs and then have maybe the last 3 excerpts from with a thumbnail from each blog.
Of course there are widgets for “Most Recent Activity” and “Recent Users”, and “Groups”, but these only provide a listing, they don’t give a view of what is in each section.
I have no idea where to start and how to do this into a child theme or if it is possible. Thanks for any help.
BuddyPress adds extended profiles and groups to a WordPress install. What you want is doable but it wouldn’t be out of the box. You’d have to do some customization.
@jeffsayre has a privacy plugin due out soon.
I did some more digging on WordPress, and what I’m looking for is something like the “Comment Toolbar” plugin. It doesn’t work in buddypress though. 
That would be perfect if it did.
I just subscribed and I need advice. I am looking to creat a site for a photography club in which users can share and show off pictures, both in a public and a private space. I want them to be able to hold internal compititions by voting for the ones they love the best and share their thoughts on these, as well as on other subjets. I need to know if either WordPress, Buddypress or both are capable of doing this. Also, although I never did it, I know that I can connect to WordPress with Lightroom 3. Can I do the same with Buddypress? Thank you for your answers… 
@dwenaus
This plugin sounds like a great idea. I would love to beta test when it becomes available.
There are several plugins (one quick post) that allow users to post from their buddypress profile.
