BuddyPress.org

That is just dreadful, i hope you can find an old version of BuddyPress instead? Better an outdated version then no version i feel….Besides, it doesn’t seem that the authors care or know how to fix this, so you and i might have to live with the old version i am afraid….

I’m back to exploring Buddypress, and I am experimenting with an install. I’d like to have a linkable public profile for the members without all this sort of information:

But only select fields (description, publications etc). I see a lot of technical info about customizing files etc when I search for this, some of it rather old. Is there perhaps a plugin that allow me to remove all this (to me) irrelevant information for non-logged-in users? It may well be there for the users when they are logged in. Perhaps it might be easier to simply create ordinary text-files for each user presentation that they can edit themselves.

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_is_active()

That’s the error I get in my child theme functions.php …. but I haven’t a clue what to do to fix it… Hey guys, I’m a journalist, not a bit twiddler…. The BuddyPress team is world famous for passing the blame to other plugins – instead of its own bad installation procedures… I’ve noticed this scapegoating going on for years …

the comment about Buddypress was because I copied and pasted what I wrote in bbpress. I’m trying to figure out if the problem is with BuddyPress, bbpress or a compatibility issues between the two. Sorry about that.

As for root profiles, how can I tell when the farthest I can go right now is past the installation but not the activation stage? This is a brand new site and has had no previous installs of Buddypress.

Thank you.

I’m new to both bbpress and buddypress. What do you mean by root profiles? I can’t get past activating my installs.

ok, so I did a fresh install of wordpress and began to install each plugin one-by-one. Here’s an update on what’s happening:

– Buddypress released a new version Feb 5th (yesterday) with a new component or something.
– I get a blank page as soon as I activate Buddypress with bbpress (no other plugins or themes installed).
– WooCommerce works with bbpress until I install a specific theme but I will take that up with the theme.

I’m going to post this thread in BuddyPress forums to see if they are aware of what’s going on but any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

yeah , i need a real witness to show me a large computing capability for at least 100 thousands members on a WP buddypress site, but is it possible ?

Thanks modemlooper.

That solved one problem but I found another major obstacle – no ‘other’ field option on profile multi select boxes – that means I won’t be using Buddypress for the members site after all.

Thanks for taking the time to answer.

@noizeburger Just working through you tutorial and all has made perfect sense to me, except the last bit.

I have added the facility for the track uploads and these are appearing on the site. However, I don’t understand how I can get all this to display as a playlist. I have downloaded ‘HTML5 jQuery Audio Player’ but don’t understand how this can connect to the tracks uploaded by BuddyPress members.

Sorry to be a pain. I was just hoping you’d be able to point me in the right direction.

Thanks

I wonder if I can revert to an earlier version of Buddypress in order to temporarily resolve this issue??

Thankyou @ubernaut.

I am looking at Prime+SSD here to start with:

Is it ok for a BP site in the beginning?
I will change to a better one once the site gets some traffic later.

Thank you.
