@namrons – If you are using the older bp-default theme or a deriviative of the bp-default theme on your other sites, you’ll need to patch bp-default as well.

I’ve added the fix for the bp-default theme here:
https://github.com/buddypress/BP-Default/commit/4a06b494195c681252d27ded0c23ba8296322ec0

Are you already in a reflection stage or already confronted to “a problem” ?

If you have a template you can display content, with conditionnals.
Read here to see what it is on hand for template files:

Template Tag Reference

The patch has not much to do with wp.
Depending of the BP version you use on the old sites, you can use the fix !
Compare the buddypress-functions.php and if you find a line similar to the one alreadyfixed, you can try to use the patch.

Aside it could not work, there is nothing to loose to try!

Hi @lunaya,

activate debug mode in wp-config to get some internal information

And read here:

Have you setup a page for groups ?
Have you changed the permalinks ?

Configure BuddyPress

A 404 error ? If you copy/paste a wrong url this can happen !

When you create a new page in wordpress, a permalink is automatically created under the title box.
You copy that whole permalink, including http, into the snippet
'link' => 'your permlink', do not remove the coma ! And be carefull when editing code. Use a text editor, not Word !

The snippet give you the possibility to add a page to a profile, and this page use his own template file, as also described.

Don’t copy/paste when you don’t know how to use it and how things are working.
For that you have the codex, where you can learn a bit on how BP is working.
Here about theming.

hi @aghajoon,
don’t jump into old post please !

Much more convenient, would be to use the buddypress notification manager plugin !

Works with 4.0 and bp 2.02

@cartographer,
nobody forces the admin to read private messages, except, depending the country, some laws or other regulations. Any other reason to read is a personnal option.

And it is anyway possible by reading the message table in the db.

To disambiguate any further question around this, read the answer of @johnjamesjacoby

@admindirektor,

how do you expect some help if you don’t give the theme name or a site url ?
This is not a buddypres issue, but a wordpress setting affair.

Make the member package page as start page and set buddypress as private or members only.

More about “private” here:
https://buddypress.org/support/tag/private/

@robertne,

installing an extra site just for sharing posts is somehow a big task for… nothing and requires a multisite install. Made it simple ! Share your RSS feed…
http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-social-buttons-to-wordpress-rss-feed/

Sorry If i misunderstand you. If the goal is to ADD an external link to your posts, you can create a custom post type for that or simply paste the link into a post.

If this is also not what you want, explain what kind of post, from where and how your members should use a sharing button. Even if BuddyPress doesn’t handle posts, he only shows them.

Also you can read some related forum topics here:
https://buddypress.org/support/tag/share/

@marriagebroker, @bitpath

Here 2 snippets you can use (one or both depending your needs).
Add them to your child-theme functions.php or to bp-custom.php

/* remove "not recently active" */
function bpfr_core_get_last_activity( $last_activity_date, $string ) {
		if ( empty( $last_activity_date ) )
				// we do nothing
				$last_active = '';
			else
				$last_active = sprintf( $string, bp_core_time_since( $last_activity_date ) );
		}
add_filter( 'bp_core_get_last_activity', 'bpfr_core_get_last_activity' );

/* remove whole recently active filter */
function bpfr_remove_last_activity_filter() {
    remove_filter( 'bp_core_get_last_activity', $last_active, $last_activity_date, $string );
}
add_filter( 'bp_core_get_last_activity', 'bpfr_remove_last_activity_filter' );

change the tables prefix !
Check also some index.php firstly, for some encrypted datas, like base64_decode on the first line…

If this matches, you have also to scan your computer.

You can use the wordfence plugin (and de-install if nothing is found)

This one is really efficient against fake registering.

But in any case, this is like carrying water in a sieve or perforated device !

And please don’t jump in old topics, this one relates to gravity form. Open your’s and give details about the issue, used theme, bp version and login plugin if used.

@giggio,

verify that your translation files are in the correct directory.

For bbPress:
wp-content/languages/bbpress/bbp-xx_XX.mo (required)
wp-content/languages/bbpress/bbp-xx_XX.po (option)
where xx is your language

For BuddyPress:
wp-content/languages/plugins/buddypress-xx_XX.mo (required)
wp-content/languages/plugins/buddypress-xx_XX.po (option)

FYI: both plugins are shipped with a pot file containing the strings you can translate.
/plugin_name/languages/plugin_name.pot

Don’t put a translation in this folder, as it will be overwritten at each update.

I’m getting it too and have been for a long time now.
This is such an important part of the whole nature of Buddypress, I don’t understand why it appears to be ignored.
