Well, I’M using BuddyX and members + activity page gives me “No matching template found” too. Is it possible to rollback to previous BuddyPress version?

Rolling BuddyPress back to 10.4.0 restored the messaging and dashboard. Will see if a new release will work soon.

I am using Divi and have to roll back to 10.4. I am getting No Template Found on all BuddyPress pages now with the update.

I am having the same issue with BuddyPress and the Divi theme. None of the BuddyPress pages are visible. Need to roll back to the previous version.

@imath Muchas gracias por tu trabajo, de momento he cambiado a un tema alternativo y todo marcha muy bien, espero que se pueda arreglar lo del tema Kadence pero de momento hemos salido adelante y Buddypress está funcionando con otro tema. Os agradezco encarecidamente todo el esfuerzo.

Same. All Divi sites running Buddypress have broken BP pages after the 10.5 update. “No matching template found.” Rolling back to 10.4 and hoping a patch or workaround surfaces soon.

A mí me ha pasado lo mismo con el tema Kadence, no funciona ni la página de miembros, ni la página de grupos, me muestra el mensaje tema no encontrado. Supongo que lo desarrolladores de Buddypress están trabajando en ello, es algo que puede suceder cuando se actualiza a una nueva versión.

– Tema: KadenceVersió: 1.1.30 url: https://www.kadencewp.com/
– It is not multisite.
– I don’t have BuddyPress related specific constants configured in your wp-config.php

Hi I believe it’s a theme issue and advise you to contact the support team of your theme to understand the issue.

If you want to be sure it’s a theme issue, activate any other WordPress default theme like Twenty Twenty-Two, you should see the registration form is displayed into this theme.

If not, then it’s probably another plugin conflicting with BuddyPress, deactivate each plugin one by one and when the registration form is back, you’ll have found the problematic plugin.

All this was written into this sticky topic…

Hi.

After this release it appears to break the Buddypress User Registration Form.

Heyo everybody!

I think the issue with buddypress is the same it always had, you had 2 choices, make a rock solid basic social framework (like wordpress is for blogs) and then expand with plugins, or make a solid all in one product that can be extended with plugins, the problem is that buddypress was never one or the other, it was always a mix of the basic, with lots of holes in the feature set with some extended stuff that no one needs.

Besides that the basic social network features NEVER realized to this day, ive tried buddypress several times and its always lacking the most basic features that social networks all have as well as most competing social network software always has, but in buddypress its, oh no use this broken plugin and of course that breaks or its also janky, like the whole image posting on buddypress, its ridiculous and a broken system, im sure it has improved a lot over the years, but my impression comparing with something like wordpress, is that buddypress is always launching optimizations and improvements and never new features and never good social features… like im not a super fan of wordpress blocks, to this day its pretty broken to me but at least they are trying new things and making improvements, buddypress is stuck on myspace era social networks but doesnt even deliver on those…

You should install buddypress and get old school facebook, thats it, member pages, a feed you can tweak, make connections, post stuff… can buddypress do this? kinda? maybe? if you install some plugins… almost…

And to that point and i know some people on this tread went about lots of features they want, but look at your competition, tiktok, discord, reddit, they are not facebook with 1 billion features, they are way more streamlined and sometimes very simplistic social networks, personal page feed, main page feed thats pretty much it, you dont need a million features to have a great social network, but you need solid basics with as many points of interaction possible (share, text, images, videos, like, subscribe, swipe left, star, heart, join, chat, message) and even today buddypress lacks… lacks so much on the very basic social stuff.

Today, a basic vanila forum soft is more social and expandable than buddypress, its not that buddypress hasnt moved with the times, its that it never moved in the first place and im your market, i run a lot of sites, a lot of communities, small and large, lots of it on wordpress, if buddypress was good, not even great i would use it and i would extend it…

Now regarding the original news about the low usage of buddypress, im impressed you had that many, and im kinda on the side of hummm after this many years of meh, the only way i would try and care again about buddypress is if you completely revamped the whole thing, doesnt need to be what im talking about here, but you need to start from scratch, because what you build clearly is not working, optimizing this or improving that feature wont change my mind, just look at the 10.0 release changelog, its like… the same as a good maintenance release… but i dont think you can, because there are still 100k using it… so you are stuck… i would say drop those people, give it a year or two of life support and just start over…

And i dont think social networks are going away anytime soon, sure a lot of it moved for mobile, but that doesnt mean you cant run your mobile social app on wordpress/buddypress, i do, most of my sites are if not available on mobile, they do have some mobile integration, so buddypress could have lots of value, and it could be much more, but as of today im pretty sure it wont amount to anything, im your target audience, buddypress has pretty much burned all its bridges with me, like a lot of users, I posted here and on wordpress.org the issues, the recommendations, or views of whats wrong, and there were no replies or replies like this plugin solves it, or that’s how it works, i remember one of those comments got me mad enough that on that day i restarted one of my sites from buddypress to elgg, freaking elgg its an atrocious social network software, but it was still better than buddypress, at least it had the most basic social features, like posting a picture, i really don’t see anything coming from this, i hope im wrong but, well… look where i am writing this… this is the main buddypress site, it should be a showcase of a social network on wordpress, but no, we are all writing on bbpress, the only really social part of your entire site.
