and i want to know where have a video teach on buddypress..
Hi @travel-junkie,
Would be nice that users could post location and associate it to a group.
Hi to all,
on my site http://www.kickbackpoker.net i installed buddypress. After instaling BuddyPress Template Pack,
i see links in header but when i click on every link in dropp down meni I cannot open anything.
Pls. help
Thank you
@rogercoathup – the solution you provided on page one works for me.
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/replace-activity-stream-blog-excerpt-with-the_excerpt?topic_page=1&num=15#post-69966
However, is there anyway of having BuddyPress refreshing its activity streams? The above fix only works for updates or new posts AFTER it was implemented. All previous activities are showing their old content.
I’m having the same problem. Just spent the last 4 hours no luck.. I think the problem may be (with me anyway is) that my “bp-template-pack” (located in the plugins folder) which contains the 6 folders that I moved to the “bp-default” directory under the “theme” folder, also needs the files within the folder “buddypress” (located in the plugins folder).
I get 404 for some, not all pages.
hello
I use WordPress 3.0 and BuddyPress
I created sub-blogs.
example: http://www.xxx.com / demo /bmember>>Bmember registered user demo site
How do I prevent a Bmember from entering other blogs?
example:www.xxx.com/demonew/bmember (not login and link showing )
only http://www.xxx.com/demonew/
best regards.
@xsimo that generic non specific upload issue? I’m sure Boone will have endless fun committing a generic fix to cover a vaguely defined issue 
If you really want help, and not being able to upload avatars is fairly critical, I suggest you start a new thread and describe the problem you are having in as much detail as possible along with WP/BP versions and any plugins running.
I have multiple test installs and production installs none have an issue with avatar upload – however your server! can present issues if not configured correctly but that isn’t a fix Boone can commit.
Regardless @crashutah post and not being sure of the meaning of the word “alludes”, I hope @boonebgorges will find time to commit if not in trunk, in a branch a fix for avatar upload problem since my bp install has the same non functional image upload issue and has no common database `key` with wp.org or wp.com
@missyjohn7 Please avoid multiple posts, once is plenty also if you had looked you might have spotted a Jobs Board group where your post(s) should have been placed (granted it’s not easy to find)

@shawnyuan ** when user log into your website, user is redirected to his/her profile. ** when user tries to move to homepage, user is redirected to his/her profile. **
Here’s the BP Profile as Homepage plug-in:
function bp_profile_homepage()
{
global $bp;
if(is_user_logged_in() && $_SERVER=='/')
{
wp_redirect( $bp->loggedin_user->domain );
}
}
function logout_redirection()
{
global $bp;
$redirect = $bp->root_domain;
wp_logout_url( $redirect );
}
add_filter('get_header','bp_profile_homepage',1);
add_action('wp_logout','logout_redirection');
The main initial need to promote a social network is the invitation system . but Buddypress lacks an inbuilt invitation system …. there are invitation plugins , but they are not up to the mark .
An invitation system (inbuilt of plugin) in todays social network market with features to invite friends from mail services like gmail, yahoo, etc. and also a feature to invite friends from facebook and orkut , would be a great addition and also this features would be a great instrument to promote a buddypress based social network.
@travel-junkie Mapology is looking stellar! Just checked out the group overlay and wow, way to go! To fill folks in, if a group has many maps/routes, the overlay shows all the relevant routes on a single map to easily see all routes in relation to each other. Brilliant!

Do the following. You will need to edit 2 numbers in the code.
1. Open the php file at /plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-settings.php
2. Go to this function:
`function bp_core_add_settings_nav()`
3. Find this line and change the “10” to “20”.
`bp_core_new_subnav_item( array( ‘name’ => __( ‘General’, ‘buddypress’ ), ‘slug’ => ‘general’, ‘parent_url’ => $settings_link, ‘parent_slug’ => $bp->settings->slug, ‘screen_function’ => ‘bp_core_screen_general_settings’, ‘position’ => 10, ‘user_has_access’ => bp_is_my_profile() ) );`
4. 3. Find this line and change the “20” to “10”.
`bp_core_new_subnav_item( array( ‘name’ => __( ‘Notifications’, ‘buddypress’ ), ‘slug’ => ‘notifications’, ‘parent_url’ => $settings_link, ‘parent_slug’ => $bp->settings->slug, ‘screen_function’ => ‘bp_core_screen_notification_settings’, ‘position’ => 20, ‘user_has_access’ => bp_is_my_profile() ) );`
i should add that instead of clicking “Dashboard”, as mentioned above, if i click on anything in the 2nd level menu (i.e. “New Post”, “Manage Posts”, “Manage Comments”), i go to the respective pages correctly. no downloaded file… strange.
ok. so i enabled fastcgi using htaccess. everything’s working great. seems a bit faster. running wp 3.0.1 and bp 2.6.1. doing my usual 4 major browser tests. get to chrome, then the strangest thing.
when logged in, clicking on the buddypress admin bar My Blogs drop down, then selected a blog, then clicking on Dashboard DOWNLOADS the page as a file (rather than taking you to /wp-admin/).
the link says wp-admin. when i type http://subblog.maindomain.com/wp-admin/ into chrome address bar, it also downloads what i think is the wp-admin index file…
i turn off fastcgi, everything’s back to normal. ha ha.
any ideas??
I don’t know if anyone is still following this thread but I discovered the users with this problem had not activated the account. So I installed this plugin so I didn’t have to keep deleting and recreating these accounts. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-activate-users/installation/
FYI the users either were not receiving the email, or so they say, or the message went to spam or didn’t activate when they clicked the link.
hope this helps.

I presume you’re running WP single; otherwise you’d have a direct link to your dashboard in the “My Blogs” dropdown of the adminbar.
So, simply enter the following in your browser’s address bar:
your-site.com/wp-admin

Have you tried the Widget Logic plugin? You can determine the placement of widgets using both WP and BP conditional tags. That means you can create custom sidebars for ANY component, category, tag, post, page, etc… Give it a whirl; it’s a lot easier than trying to code stuff from scratch 
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widget-logic/
On my multisite network, a logged in user can view and edit their own profile just fine, but when they try to view another member’s profile, everything after the avatar and display name produce an error.
Error code reads:
‘Fatal error: Class ‘BP_Button’ not found in /home/content/23/6935923/html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-templatetags.php on line 1095′
And the BP Admin bar also goes away when trying to view another member’s profile.
Any ideas how I can fix this? I tried commenting out the call to the button referenced in the error, but that only produces another error.
I see no one has answered this. I am having the same problem. Completely random and doesn’t matter what role I change the user too. The only solution is deleting and re-creating the user/member id.
If anyone knows the solution to this please let me know.
thanks.
Glad you guys are looking forward to it! I’ll submit it to Codex if there’s a need for it, sure 
thanks, i’ll check out the plugin
