Re #1 – BP 1.2.7 will fix this.

If you can’t wait until then, try the solution posted in this thread:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/am-i-going-mad-or-are-there-now-avatars-next-to-posts-in-the-activity-stream/?topic_page=2&num=15#post-76621

Re #2 – Most likely a child theme issue. Can you post a screenshot to confirm?

@zomex – You might want to try this in your theme’s functions.php:

`remove_action( ‘init’, ‘bp_core_add_admin_bar_css’ );

if ( !is_admin() )
add_action( ‘init’, ‘bp_core_add_admin_bar_css’ );`

Untested, but give it a shot.

Actually, based on your report, it’s hard to give a definitive answer. What exactly is breaking in the admin area?

That’s strange, it should be in BuddyPress > General Settings panel right under “Disable global forum directory?:” What BP/WP versions are you on?

Welcome aboard!

Absolutely, this is the default behavior. This site, for example, is running buddypress, so by joining and logging in you just experienced BP goodness. Also check out testbp.org. That is a default install of BP and represents what you get out of the box.

That solution isn’t really possible if you’ve made changes to the them since installing buddypress. At least I can’t imagine how. I have a similar situation – trying to get rid of buddy press but terrified that pulling it out is going to screw the rest of the site… Is there a more foolproof way to do this?

Would this work as a workaround for you?

I found it after doing some searching… it doesn’t inject the forum into the “home” tab itself, but it would let you rearrange everything so Forums come up first (and make “home” not even appear at all if you want from what it looks like).

@janis It seems to be the avatar of the blog so if you have multiple blogs you can have different avatars for each blog. I’ve been going nuts trying to figure out how to upload a new avatar for each blog so it doesn’t look generic but I haven’t figured it out yet. If the monitors of this thread know please let me know. Also, In regards to the latest post you just need to adjust the CSS on the style sheet of the theme you are using.

any news about an updated version which works with the current bp?
this plugin would be awesome!

There are a few possible approaches to integrating them together, and the ones you need are possible even today. That’s actually exactly how bbPress works in the WordPress plugin repository, attaching plugins to tags in essence giving them their own ‘forum’ in a sense.

The first iteration will probably closely mirror how things work today, for the sake of it being an easy transition for everyone’s existing data. The last thing we want to happen is to force anyone to make changes to their existing setups. In future iterations we’ll include some options on how you want to configure them to communicate to each other. This may be strongly theme dependent though, since all of these components would need to have the proper hooks and CSS in place to style these elements correctly in any of the places they might appear.

@modemlooper great idea… I look forward to seeing what the think tank here comes up with.

@rogercoathup what are the codes for the count of:
friends,groups and videos which are uploaded ?

mercime’s suggestion will work well if you want to keep people from commenting on certain kinds of activity items. If you want to turn off updates entirely, you may want to do it at the theme level. You’ll need a child theme (https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/). In that child theme, make sure you have a file groups/single/activity.php. You can get the content of that file from wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/groups/single/activity.php. Then, in the version of activity.php in your child theme, remove the following lines:
