BuddyPress.org

Or:

<?php 
    if ( $string = xprofile_get_field_data( 'BIO', get_the_author_meta('ID') ) ) { ?>
       <a href="https://twitter.com/USERNAME" target="_blank">Twitter:&nbsp<?php echo $string; ?></a> <?php
    }
?>

@3rdaxis
Untested but maybe something like this would work, in this example you would need to change “USERNAME” at the end of the URL to the persons twitter name. To get other URL’s to work you should just change the URL etc.

<?php 
    if ( $string = xprofile_get_field_data( 'BIO', get_the_author_meta('ID') ) ) { ?>
       <a href="https://twitter.com/USERNAME" target="_blank" alt="twitter"><?php echo $string; ?></a> <?php
    }
?>

As @henrywright-1 already stated “Replace BIO with your field name.”

This was all that showed on the Theme Check run:

I don’t know which one would cause the problem in BuddyPress Users/Friends page.

@sooskriszta https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/submitting-a-patch/
instead of downloading https://core.svn.wordpress.org/trunk/ via SVN, you’d need to download via SVN client https://buddypress.svn.wordpress.org/trunk/

Then after you’ve tested the changes you’ve made in your test installation, log in and create a new ticket in https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ and upload that patch.

What @danbp said. Select “sitewide forums”

@politiclear Since we don’t have access to this premium theme, pending the response of someone who has used Headway theme with BuddyPress, I recommend that have you check Headway theme forums if the theme is compatible with BuddyPress and/or if you need any modifications in the theme to make it compatible with BuddyPress. I have changed the title of this post to include Headway.

Actually you can use BP 1.8.1 with bbPress 2.4 to get what you want.

Since BuddyPress 1.6, bbPress is no more attached to BP groups and can be installed as a standalone full, complete, forum
3 types of install are possible: goup-forums only, single forum only or both.

Read here please.

Installing Group and Sitewide Forums

bbPress

I’m having the same problem on a fresh install today onto WP 3.6.1.
bbPress 2.4 has been running successfully for a long while.

http://xyz/blog/members/ This is the url that is returned whenever you click > or a page number under the search box. It is blank.

Clicking the Members menu tab gives you the 1st page of Users with Add Friend buttons to the right. I chose one and it now says in that spot, Cancel Friendship Request button. The person never received a Friend request, but they are now listed in the Member count display.

I cursored over other pages we should be able to search and got the proper URL that it should go to: http://xyz/blog/members/?upage=2 (When I use the exact URL manually, they work correctly it appears.)

But direct clicking it only goes back the http://xyz/blog/members/ and displays blank below the Order by: box.

Pressing on All Members (with count to the right) returns a completely blank page below that All Members link.

Can’t use BuddyPress without this on a mature site.

No one knows where this string is located ( in which file ? ) ?

Not sure exactly what issue you are facing with bbpress.

@jamesdonegan

You can check out and download older versions at https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/developers/

1.8 is at https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/buddypress.1.8.zip

@pelaso
It is really only so much we can do with the info provided, and as @hnla stated it is a guess as to what could be wrong. Maybe you should consider hiring a developer. If you decide too then you can leave your job and contact info here:

BP Jobs Board

As well as here:

Good luck!

You have to give the field a title when you add new profile fields via WP Admin > Users > Profile Fields. Whatever you’ve chosen as your field title is what you should use

you’re right, I just tested myself and it doesn’t do the job. This will work – I just tested it out on my dev install:

<?php 
    if ( $string = xprofile_get_field_data( 'BIO', get_the_author_meta('ID') ) ) {
        echo $string;
    }
?>

Note: Replace BIO with your field name.

@3rdaxis did you change the field name to the name of your bio field?

Found where to create a Trac and have done that.

I am having this exact problem, too, @hnla. The same thing was happening awhile back, and somehow it was resolved… but now it’s back.

I am using WordPress 3.6.1 and BuddyPress 1.8.1
I have created a custom child theme to the bp-default. I have tried disabling my child theme, and the same issue persists.

I am unable to find a download for 1.8 to revert the registration.php page. (Found lots of information about 1.8, but not an actual download.)

THank you for your help.

(I am also happy to create a Trac ticket, but I’m not sure where/how to do that.)
