@keram- You need to enable registration in your Network Admin > Settings, creaate the pages, then associate those pages with BP https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/register-and-activation-pages/

>> The”membership” option in the image on the link you posted.

@functionmunchkin The option to “allow users to register” in Network Admin > Settings is the same as the one in a single WP site’s option in Settings > General in that link.

>> Register goes the the login page and clocking the register link on there goes to page not found.
You mentioned that “I’ve setup the bp register and activate pg”
– did you set up BP network-wide or in one subsite? Reference: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installation-in-wordpress-multisite/
– have you double-checked that you created the Register and Activate pages in the main site (if network-wide) or in the subsite, then associated the pages in Settings > BuddyPress > Pages?

Did this solution really work for you?
I’m surprised because in my case it did not.
As in this thread other users say, on one hand the browser remember the last selected tab, and on the other, the loop displayed in the stream is still the activity-all.

I found another solution based on cookies.

There is a cookie named ‘bp-activity-scope’ that is used to query the activity stream posts and that must be set to ‘groups’ in order to display only the posts that belongs to groups.

This is the script that worked for me, in which ‘My Groups’ is the default tab:

var jq = jQuery;
jq(document).ready( function() {

	filter = jq('#activity-filter-select select').val();
		jq.removeCookie('bp-activity-scope', {
		path: '/'
		});
//change 'groups' with the cookie for the tab you want to be the default one
// favorites , friends, etc
	jq.cookie( 'bp-activity-scope', 'groups');
	scope = jq.cookie('bp-activity-scope');
	bp_activity_request(scope, filter);

} );

I wrote a post in which I explain step by step how to implement it, and also how to avoid that the activity-all tab is switched to selected when the user focus on the wwhat’s new textarea:

See the Members Loop article for details on how to output a member list.

This will take you years to achieve adequate app like privacy. There’s other ways these days besides buddy press. A few years ago, no one really cared to provide real privacy options with buddypress because to them it defeated the purpose and was suspicious. One volunteer took it on and eventually gave up.

Moved on.

Are you using the WOffice theme and their Birthday extension?

If so, see:

>> I know that Base group are shown in the Registration Form

@shmk thanks for confirming, just had to make sure you did. There’s a trac ticket which needs some more work done to get the feature you want at https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6347

@engine44 Have you read https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/ ? What shortcode did you use for your forums index page? Have you created an additional new Forum from wp-admin menu Forums > New Forums?

@darkdog
This post may help you with this: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/swap-out-the-buddypress-page-title-with-the-wordpress-page-tile/

I have no idea if BP is going to make this easier in the future to change these things dashboard backend or not – I have made some posts about this a time or two around here – but bp pages, their displayed on screen titled, and the meta titles have been a mess for a long time. Unless you know php and are willing to dig deep through documentation that is disorganized and possible outdated, there is no easy way of handling these issues.

What RemonStormborn is having a problem with is exactly what is happening for me. This changed after one update. Which one, I do not know. I have waited several months to reinstall Buddypress hoping things would be different but it is not.

I am new to using W3 Total Cache. Are there any guides out there to setting that up for BuddyPress?

Not that I know of. Is there anything in the W3 Total Cache documentation?

Is there a table in the DB that deals specifically with notifications?

Yes. That’d be bp_notifications

If so, I guess I could just empty it before I emptied the stream and stream meta tables.

Shout up if anyone thinks that could be a problem.

Instead of deleting directly from the database, you should use these functions:

• bp_notifications_delete_notifications_by_type()
• bp_notifications_delete_notifications_by_item_id()
• bp_notifications_delete_all_notifications_by_type()
• bp_notifications_delete_notifications_from_user()

Alternatively, if none of these quite suit your need, go straight for the class method:

• BP_Notifications_Notification::delete()

Add these additions to your style.css for a fix.

#buddypress div#item-header #item-header-cover-image #item-actions {
    margin-top: 0px !important;
    margin-left: 0px;
    clear: all !important;
    max-width: 80% !important;
}

This may be considered as bug in current behavior. Currently, BuddyPress only looks for published pages when looking for component associated pages in bp_core_get_directory_pages().

You may want to report it on the BuddyPress trac and the core developers and weigh their opinions on this.

I have the exact same problem.

Newest wordpress Newest Buddypress using 2014 theme.

When you click inside the textarea box, the textarea should expand and show the submit button.

Does that work?

If not, it might be related to the Sahira theme. Since Sahira is a premium theme, we do not have access to it. What happens when you switch to one of the WordPress Twenty themes?

Do you have the BuddyPress Activity Privacy plugin activated? If so, read this:
