New to the multisite & buddypress and trying to learn as we go. We have multisite & buddypress installed. I’m uploading many templates for our users to choose from. Some don’t show the buddypress bar. How do I make these templates work so that the buddypress bar is included?
Thanks so much
Hi All,
Please help.
I have just spent all day tweaking my new buddypress site, but for some reason it has an error with the user registration option… When I hover over the ‘create an account’ link it says: http://www.zizou.info/register
However, when I click on it, all I get is this link in the address bar, and nothing changes on the page: http://www.zizou.info/?bp_pc_redir_to=%2Fregister
Incidently, all of my menu links have the ?bp_pc_redir_to=%2F inserted into the address bar when the user is not logged in.
Any ideas?
Thanks Jon
Thank you for answering @r-a-y
My hope is that the new bbpress plugin is released in Q1/Q2 and then there can be better integration with the activity stream. Personally, they should go both ways – a reply in the stream should go to the forum and a reply in the forum should go to the stream (threaded)….
I have so much stuff on at the moment, but checking Template Pack and Skeleton Component is near the top of the ilst.

I’ve added you already to the support group. The paid support is basically only for our free plugins.
If you use Buddypress Template Pack and upgrate Buddypress to 1.2.6 and decide to update the template files that Template Pack copied into your WordPress Template directory with the updated 1.2.6 bp-default template files, things will break in your WordPress/Buddypress site. Add Friend and Send Private Message buttons will disappear (and maybe other things break as well.)
Anyway.. I found a way to fix Buddypress Template Pack (which has not been updated since February, by the way.)
Copy and paste over some of the items from functions.php in the bp-default theme into the bb-template-pack.php file in the Buddypress Template Pack plugin folder.
On line 35 of bb-template-pack.php I changed bp-js to dtheme-ajax-js
Then I pasted in everything from line 24 through 36 in functions.php in the bp-default theme functions.php and pasted it into bp-template-pack.php after the bracket } after line 35
I have compressed a copy of my new bp-template-pack.php if you want it. You can download it here: http://www.hotforwords.com/files/bp-template-pack.zip

Susan, I know this is old news, but I use Private BuddyPress:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/private-buddypress/
It protects BP pages that are not protected by WishList.
I just updated to the latest version of Buddypress, and ‘Lightbox 2’, which previously worked fine, has stopped functioning. Tested a ‘Thickbox’ plug-in, which has overcome JS conflicts on other websites, and that works fine. So I’m betting this is a JS conflict, but no idea how to overcome it. Any ideas?
I am having trouble with the title tags on my main page. My blog content is on the home page and whenever I post a new blog the title tag changes to the title of the new posted blog. I would like the title tag on the home page just to say “My Site”
I’ve tried changing information in SeoPress to no avail. 
Using:
WordPress 3.0.1
BuddyPress 1.2.5.2
SeoPress 1.0.2
yes now I understand a bit
A lot of thanks to you @hnla

@gpo1
Not at the moment.
@ffdltd
v2 is still a bit off. Probably middle of next year.
Yup, moving things, like the calendar or the map, around is quite easy. There’s templatetags for that.
ok…i gave this a try…
example.com – primary site – enabled edublogs theme – expected edublogs theme to work – functioned as expected
example.com/site1 – activated buddypress default theme on site – worked as expected
example.com/site2 – activated buddypress child theme on site – worked as expected
now, i wanted to customize the header on example.com/site2. i logged in with the admin for example.com/site2 but was unable to customize header, so i logged into example.com with superadmin and went to example.com/site2 backend. I updated the header to a customized image, but it doesn’t show up anywhere!
Yeah, there are not any ‘plugable’ functions in BP.
there is no action to trigger on (though that wouldn’t allow you to overwrite a function – i don’t believe any “pluggable” functions exists in bp. action is just a hook point)
there is a filter on the return of that function though bp_core_get_username but passes the determined username
thanks @nuprn1 it seems that changing that one line as above has done what I need it to – I also removed the drop down from the main status box – now just admins can post to the groups
Yes atlast … Thanks a lot @hnla and also @rogercoathup
`
function cancel_header_padding_for_no_adminbar() {
if(defined( ‘BP_DISABLE_ADMIN_BAR’ ) || $bp->doing_admin_bar == false) ?>
body {padding-top:0;}
<?php
}
if (!is_user_logged_in())
add_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘cancel_header_padding_for_no_adminbar’ );
`
but One stupid question :
what is the difference between `!is_user_logged_in()` and `is_user_logged_in()` ?
Have cleaned up the code and plugged in the code suggested by @hnla – gets rid of the need for implode/explode and also allows for the list of tags from the member profile to be live:
`
<?php //for use in the loop, list 5 post titles related to user profile interest areas
$backup = $post; // backup the current object
//Fetch profile tags from custom field ‘Areas of Interest’
$profileTagFull = xprofile_get_field_data( ’25’ , bp_loggedin_user_id() );//Fetch the text for the tags
$profileargs=array(
‘tag_slug__in’ => $profileTagFull,
‘post__not_in’ => array($post->ID),
‘showposts’=>5,
‘orderby’ => rand,
‘order’ => DESC,
‘caller_get_posts’=>1
);
?>
`
This is my CSS for the run-in list:
`
.comma-list ul, .comma-list li {
color: #ffffff;
font-size: 10px;
text-transform: uppercase;
display: inline;
line-height: 12px;
}
.comma-list li {
text-decoration: underline;
}
`
Looks a lot neater now – thanks!
@r-a-y, thanks for this as it works great! To @Robcwright and others interested, I know it’s an old thread but have found this change will make it only do this for public groups or groups where you are a member and private groups will no longer redirect but keep the default setup. I put both in bp-custom.php and that seems to work great with a variety of child themes. If you want any other modifications for other cases I haven’t tried, just mention me in the reply and I’ll take a look when I can.
`
function redirect_to_forum() {
global $bp;
$path = clean_url( $_SERVER );
$path = apply_filters( ‘bp_uri’, $path );
if ( bp_is_group_home() && strpos( $path, $bp->bp_options_nav ) === false ) {
if ($bp->groups->current_group->is_user_member || $bp->groups->current_group->status == ‘public’) {
bp_core_redirect( $path . $bp->bp_options_nav . ‘/’ );
}
}
}
add_action( ‘wp’, ‘redirect_to_forum’ );
function my_bp_groups_forum_first_tab() {
global $bp;
if ($bp->groups->current_group->is_user_member || $bp->groups->current_group->status == ‘public’) {
$bp->bp_options_nav = ’50’;
$bp->bp_options_nav = ‘Activity’;
}
}
add_action(‘wp’, ‘my_bp_groups_forum_first_tab’);
`
Thats great… I was just looking at your plugin as a possibility for our BuddyPress site yesterday. I will be trying it this week. TY!
