BuddyPress.org

WPMU 2.8.2

Buddypress 1.0.3

bbPress 1.0.2

That is the only problem, white screen in bbpress admin.

Well we know that within the next 6 months, mu and wordpress will eventually combine. At that point, it would be safe to bet that buddypress will work with both the multi-user as well as the single user (both will be the same)

List version numbers of buddypress, wordpress mu, and bbpress.

If your database is messed up now, just drop all of the tables that go wp_bp_

The wp_ is your prefix from your bb-config.php and the bp_ is the prefix from the buddypress. just drop all tables with the wp_bp_ and you should be fine to reinstall.

It’s more a question can those plugins handle BuddyPress. Some of them will show the same BuddyPress on each Site, some you’ll be able to have a different Buddypress on each Site.

You will have to TRY IT.

“bumping” will not help you. It is only annoying. If noone replies, it is because noone reading the forums knows the answer. (I’m reading this after having been away – I would have done so even without your “bump”.) Please do not do it again – anywhere on the internet.

I have no idea why the component returns to it’s “disabled” state, try re-installing – either just it or the entire setup.

A “forum” tab will never appear on your BuddyPress site, unless you apply specific code. You can put something like this in a file called bp-custom.php in your wp-content/plugins folder:

function add_forum_to_main_menu() {

?><li><a href="http://example.org/forum/" title="Forum">Forum</a></li><?php

}

add_action( 'bp_nav_items', 'add_forum_to_main_menu' );

but when I click on any member or go to the members page, the template for members doesn’t load.

Elisheva-

Welcome to the BuddyPress forums!

When I went to your site and clicked on the “Members” button, it did bring up a members’ theme. However, it seems like you have selected the “Skeleton BuddyPress Member Theme” and not the “BuddyPress Default Member Theme”.

Please go back into the admin panle to “Buddypress > General Settings”, select “BuddyPress Default Member Theme” and then make sure to hit the “Save Settings” button at the bottom.

If the default member theme is already selected, deselect it by selecting a different theme, hit the “Save Settings” button, and then reselect the “BuddyPress Default Member Theme” once again and hit the “Save Settings” button one more time.

Does that fix the issue?

As far as number one: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/only-one-blog-for-user

As far as numbers two and three, I’d search the WPMU forums and the WP plugin repository for possible solutions.

If you are asking if can you use some other forum software instead of bbPress as a sitewide forum, then the answer is yes. If you are asking if can you use some other forum software instead of bbPress that will share user credentials or function as a group-based forum component, then the answer is no–not without doing a lot of custom coding.

However, I believe that Simple:Press does share WP user credentials, but I am not positive about this as I do not use it.

I have the same problem. I’m using BP 1.0.3. Whenever I try to deactivate, I get the same “fatal error” message. Even when I physically delete the plugin, it remains active, but without a name. Reinstalling the plugin generates an error.

I hate to ask, but will this plugin see daylight at all?

I’m not mad or anything but the first post in this thread was started about 2 months ago. I do start wondering if this plugin might never be aviable for download?

There’s not too much you can do–unless you made a backup of your MySQL DB before messing with it in the backend.

You should always make a backup of your DB before you do anything to it that may result in changes to the data or the data schema. In fact, make a backup of your DB at the end of each coding day just incase the unexpected happens.

I assume that you did zero customizations to the data schema of your MySQL DB. If so, then just delete your current DB and then create a new one with the exact same username and password. But, if you do this, you’ll need to reinstall BuddyPress so that BP’s tables get created in the DB. You will also have to reenter any test data, but it should get you back up an running.

Also, I’m not sure why this is an issue:

I’ve customized so much code on the back end that reinstalling buddypress would be a huge pain.

Do you mean that you have hacked the core or WPMU and / or BuddyPress? If so, you should stop doing that as every time BuddyPress is updated, your hacks will be lost.

Instead of hacking the core BP files, either create your own custom plugin(s) to hold your code, or use the bp-custom.php file. That way, if and when you need to delete your install and start from scratch, you can easily do so. Just make sure you have back ups of any custom theme files, a listing of all your plugins, a copy of your bp-custom.php file, and a copy of your wp-config.php file assuming that you want to use the same MySQL DB.

Korhan-

Please report this as a bug in trac by creating a new ticket. You login to trac with the same credentials you use to log into this site.

The theme used on this site will not be made available. This question is asked about once a week. Here was the first thread that posed that question. See Andy’s response.

You can design your own theme to accomplish a similar effect–use Firefox with Firebug and see how Andy styled the theme.

I read about some plug-in that would give you the ability to do this. Search for buddypress in the plug-ins repository.

Installed! Thanks!

How about stats from Events plug-in?

If you need to deactivate BuddyPress and the problem persist, delete wp-content/plugins/buddypress

but this is not the best way :S Even if BuddyPress hasn’t yet deactivation hook in use..

You go to the themes admin and turn it off from there.

Does anyone know how much (server) memory is used by a single user visiting an integrated bbPress+BuddyPress installation (assuming standard installs and themes)? This could be a big impact on the ability of the system to scale to many users and lots of traffic.

I remember _ck_ (moderator on the bbPress forum) saying that it would be about 1MB, but that was before BackPress integrated a lot of the overlapping functionality.

How would one measure something like this?
