BuddyPress.org

sorry i read the title of you post too quickly htaccess shouldn’t need anything special for buddypress the standard wordpress compatible htaccess is fine. group based forums are depreciated so i wouldn’t expect that work anymore anyway.

@jamrizzi

Could be a theme issue. For ex. a custom file in “community” or “buddypress” folder of a child theme.
Groups directory and Create a Group are used in bp-themes/bp-default/groups/create.php and index.php
Create a group is also in 4 other files

May also be a group related plugin dependancy.

Please give your BP version, theme name and plugin list.

@rudik123 What do you mean by using with BuddyPress? The Ads Manager plugin work with WordPress. To include the file in some BP pages, I think you’d have to alter some templates files.

I have no idea how to do that, but just to clarify, I think what you are trying to do is exactly what @modemlooper suggested, it appears you’re trying to “change the location” from the groups activity to the user activity, maintaining the proper date, user and etc. Correct?!

If that’s the case, maybe there is a way of automatically copying, with PHP, from the group to the user activity. The user is already set, because it is not gonna change, just the location is gonna change (it’s not gonna continue in the Groups, it’s gonna to the user activity). After copying, you could delete the groups activity and deactivate the Groups Component.

I’m not aware how BuddyPress works with urls, but you would probably need to update to reflect the new location.

@cdb3212 As far as I understood your problem, there are two articles that would save your life if you had a chance of looking in the Codex. These are:

https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/guides/displaying-extended-profile-fields-on-member-profiles/

bp_profile_field_data()

Take a look at those and try it out. =)

Hi @theatereleven,

I’d say that what you aim for is perfectly possible with BuddyPress. You could the following, just suggestions:

• Your users could register themselves;
• Just active the Extended Profile component;
• Use Extended Profiles Fields so that your users can add information when signing up or later;
• And you could customize the appearance customizing the template the way you want.

Maybe there is a better solution, but with BuddyPress you would get already built-in, profiles, profile fields, register process/page, user roles and etc.

He means you can over-ride a BP template by following the directions here

Theme Compatibility & Template Files

English Answer – @stuffgrid As I myself told you in the BuddyPress Brasil Facebook group, it is not a BP problem. The problem lies in the ajax, js conflicts that your theme is using. Besides, when I looked at it, it seems it lacked some customizations in some BP files.

Resposta em Português – @stuffgrid Como eu mesmo te falei no grupo do Facebook do BuddyPress Brasil. O problema não é no BP, e sim está em um conflito do AJAX e do JS que seu tema está injetando. Eu também vi que algumas páginas faltava configurações/alterações, assim estava falhando quando você carregava mais atividades, por exemplo.

As your first question, this is not a BuddyPress problem, you should check out the WP Doc for more information on how to do this. https://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Over_SSL

For your second question, I believe it is redirecting from the WP login into the BP login page.

I don’t think this is related to BuddyPress. Check out some possible plugins here: https://wordpress.org/search/favourite+posts

Interesting question. As far as I understand, WordPress and BuddyPress, when at the same installation, they share the same user base/database. So at first, I’d say this is not possible.

But, I could think of a few areas where it’d be possible.

• In a multisite installation;
• Installing another version of WordPress in the same server, something like, (var/yourwebsite/www/) , (var/yourwebsite/www/buddypress)

.

Maybe there is a way, I can’t think of one right now. But let’s see if anybody else have some ideas share. =)

Check out this thread: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/username-vs-display-name/ Maybe it can help.

@wesleysoccer – was that the css for buddypress theme or WP theme?

As indicated the problem (on my installation) WAS a plugin.

items 1 and 2 of my observations above have been eliminated by deactivating this plugin

Buddypress Friends On-line

Item 3 still persists (at least on my installation) even with trunk 8229

A Server error can be a lot of problems..

Maybe your hosting company doesn’t let you to run powerful websites. BuddyPress & bbPress are not small scripts. It’s not like you install a simple Twitter plugin for WordPress. BuddyPress & bbPress are advanced scripts that require some power of your server.

My advise, check your server logs and maybe that will give you some idea of what is happening.

Hey, @agundabbo, I’m new to BuddyPress but have been doing WordPress for a couple of years, and was happy to find two plugins that work with BuddyPress that have been stopping the fake registrations on my site. They are WangGuard and Pie Register. Good luck!

I just installed WangGuard today on a new site I’m setting up that’s been getting slammed with several an hour, and it stopped the new faker registrations immediately. Also, I’ve been using Pie Register for a couple years on another site, and that alone has done a great job of keeping most spammer registrations out, so I put it on the new site, too. I didn’t have Akismet or anything on my other site, just Pie Registration and I was pasting a bunch of IP’s and certain words in the Settings > Discussion > Comment Blacklist, and no spam.

Pie Register has the best Captcha I’ve seen in the plugins, but what I really like is you can program random questions that the user has to put the right answer in, and that’s fun. I choose stuff that is relevant to my sites, and amusing. I was really glad it works with BuddyPress!

And I’m not affiliated with either of the above plugins, either, just another site owner who knows what it’s like trying to track down help.

Ah the theme needs to be BuddyPress compliant, which greatly reduces the options.

Actually, BP is compatible with nearly all WordPress themes (and all WP default themes) since BP 1.7. Issues arise with some frameworks which do not follow basic WP templating with the_title and the_contant within the WP loop. Even so, there are solutions put forth in the BP Codex https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/

BP 1.9+

function custom_notification_menu_tabs(){
	global $bp;
	if ( bp_is_user() && bp_user_has_access() ) {
		$count    = bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( bp_displayed_user_id() );
		$class    = ( 0 === $count ) ? 'no-count' : 'count';
		$bp->bp_nav['notifications']['name'] = sprintf( __( 'Alerts <span class="%s">%s</span>', 'buddypress' ), esc_attr( $class ), number_format_i18n( $count ) );
	} 

}
add_action('bp_setup_nav', 'custom_notification_menu_tabs', 201);
