BuddyPress.org

@palmdoc, @benny390

You can try @imath solution and edit it accordingly to include bbpress.

/* beginning of the code to paste in the functions.php of your active theme */

‘function imath_activivity_dont_save( $activity_object ) {
// friendship_created is fired when a member accepts a friend request
// joined_group is fired when a member joins a group.
$exclude = array( ‘friendship_created’, ‘joined_group’);

// if the activity type is empty, it stops BuddyPress BP_Activity_Activity::save() function
if( in_array( $activity_object->type, $exclude ) )
$activity_object->type = false;

}

‘add_action(‘bp_activity_before_save’, ‘imath_activivity_dont_save’, 10, 1 );’

I also tried the plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-block-activity-stream-types/
but it seems it’s an orphaned one not updated for a couple of years
What I really hope to do is to prevent bbPress new topics and replies from appearing in the Activity stream – it’s really quite redundant I feel

Help anyone?

@simple-man this issue has been fixed by the 2.1alpha patch here: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5563#comment:24

Thank goodness. It was an issue with a missing field in my wp_signups table, which was there either because I downgraded from a Multisite install or because I have Gravity Forms installed. All seems well now.

Hey,

I’m had the same problem and resolved the issue;

Cause of the problem

Wordpress database error Unknown column ‘signup_id’
column: signup_id missing from database table wp_signups

Solution

create primary key column titled ‘signup_id’ by entering the following sql statement at the mysql prompt:

ALTER TABLE 'database_name'.'wp_signups' ADD COLUMN 'signup_id' INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;

Problem History

Error: Invalid Activation key
Also, manage signups view is empty, but I have attempted to register multiple users

system

• LAMPP
• WordPress Version 3.6.1

Unsuccessful Resolutions:

• activate 2012 theme
• deactivated all plugins
• deleted + reinstalled buddypress

Known Database Issues:

• the field user_activation_key is empty in table wp_users
• the field activation_key is NOT empty in table wp_signups
• column signup_id is missing from table wp_signups
• there is no PK or FK column for table wp_signups

apache error log

Found some useful output from apache log file, which is what led my solution:

[Wed Apr 23 20:58:19 2014] [error] [client xx.xx.xxx.xxx] WordPress database error Unknown column 'signup_id' in 'order clause' for query SELECT * FROM wp_signups WHERE active = 0 AND activation_key = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' ORDER BY signup_id DESC LIMIT 0, 1 made by require('wp-blog-header.php'), require_once('wp-includes/template-loader.php'), do_action('template_redirect'), call_user_func_array, bp_template_redirect, do_action('bp_template_redirect'), call_user_func_array, bp_screens, do_action('bp_screens'), call_user_func_array, bp_core_screen_activation, bp_core_activate_signup, BP_Signup::get

To the BP devs, I hope that’s enough to solve the problem at the application code level, instead of the database hack I used. I have a feeling the error might be due to using an old WP version, as the error appears to stem from the core WP files and not the BuddyPress files…

Wow… that’s a lot of work (changing every mention of the word “group” in the po file one by one)! Even with that poedit program, it was a tedious and time consuming task because there was no “find and replace” functionality and with a text editor (I use TextPad), you have to be sure not to rename any file names. There needs to be s a simpler way.

Wait till you realize that all your .po file changes will be lost the moment you update Buddypress.

ola !
I have no idea, but some paths…

First, if you altered the user.php, it’s the wrong way, because it’s a core file. Translation modification should only be done in the po/mo file

Secondly, you have a special character (tilde) in the word contraseña. Would probably be more secure that you use the HTML entity for this.

Don’t know what you did before the errors screen, but you have to go back to a previous stage, without errors. Deactivate all plugins, except BP. Remove the WP translations files from the languages folder, and try to enter your install in english…

Please read more about BuddyPress language here.

@dionnewilliams

1. Do you use BuddyPress on a non multisite config ?
2. Do you have a lot of members ?
3. Do you allow registration ?
4. If so and if you have an access to a MySql admin tool such as PhpMyAdmin, can you run this query :

SELECT count(u.ID) FROM wp_users as u 
LEFT JOIN wp_usermeta as um ON u.ID = um.user_id
where u.user_status = 0 and um.meta_key = 'activation_key';

‘wp_’ might be to replace with the table prefix you may have customized in wp-config.php

Once done can you share the result of the query in this forum ?

@natleg22
The correct approach to this is to use a language file. Please review:

Customizing Labels, Messages, and URLs

@mr-bronze

You could try putting the following in you child theme functions.php file

function bbg_enqueue_styles() {
remove_theme_support( 'bp-default-responsive' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'bbg_enqueue_styles', 5 );

EDIT: I’ve just noticed that you have been told this answer before: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/upgraded-and-now-nav-and-sidebar-is-responsive/#post-150007

Please start your own Topic, rather than jump in on others, which can get confusing for those trying to fix a different problem.

In your New Topic please describe more thoroughly the actual problem you personally are having and what you have already tried, including links to the theme, plugin, snippet or tutorial etc., ( if possible, practical or appropriate )?

please i need one that can remove buddypress responsive feature from my themes. how do i download it

please anyone can help me buddypress is not working with my directory theme?

This plugin is also interesting BuddyPress Activity Stream Ajax Notifier

use this plugin does an auto update of activity RS Buddypress Activity Refresh works fine on BP 1.9 and 2.0 as well.

I am not sure its an install issue. I had the exact same problem. I got rid of my issue by turning off a couple of the buddypress ‘components’ under settings. this made everything work again…. s

@pro120 – This should be partially addressed in BuddyPress 2.0 as we’ve moved the last activity entries directly into the activity component to speed up queries.

If you haven’t upgraded yet, please backup your database before upgrading then give it a shot.

Thanks for noticing, stripedsquirrel. All of the pages should work now.

The plugin repository on buddypress.org needs some love that hopefully can be tackled in the future. For now, it is what it is.

Thanks for the report, @rewindcaz.

A ticket was created and addressed here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5571

This will be added for v2.0.1 in the upcoming days.

@sarahs91 there have been changes to both BuddyPress and WordPress. Have you done some basic troubleshooting like changing theme to Twenty Fourteen/Thirteen? If it’s still an issue, have you deactivated plugins other than BuddyPress to check which is causing conflict in your registration?

here some ideas / projects :

hello @megainfo,

You’re right. I think the problem you described in #5569 is a side effect of #5553.
