BuddyPress.org

@testamann first time I’ve seen that bug. Change to Twenty Twelve or BP Default theme and check if same issue shows up.

That works to add a tab, but I think the idea here is to show posts within the author’s BuddyPress profile.

Yes, this is actually in core now…I believe it was 1.8. It had been using date_i18n() and now it is using get_date_from_gmt().

If your times are still off make sure your BuddyPress is up to date and that should fix the problem.

Firstly there are no staff members this is an open source project.

Secondly never ever edit core files unless you are an experienced developer and even then you shouldn’t be needing to ever edit core application files.

If you are trying to attempt something explain the requirements here and people may be able to suggest the correct way you can achieve this.

Now I am missing plugin menu items on users profiles
Explain exactly what page/screen you are referring to here.

best place for that kind of thing is:

buddypress.trac.wordpress.org

pretty sure @trishasalas patched that in either 1.8 or 1.8.1

a simple google search finds you the plugin:

One Click Mark Spammer for BuddyPress

I know this thread is old, but I want to help those that are in the same boat as I am in while searching for this issue on Google, I hope it is also pertinent to this thread fully as I believe these issues are linked together.

I was having an issue with this too, where the activity streams on the home page were showing times that are 7 hours off because of GMT time being 7 hours off from me.

This problem can easily be fixed by setting your WordPress’s main timezone settings to something like -8 instead of the city name ie; Los Angeles.

But I could not go this route because I’m currently using Ajax Event Calendar plugin, which requires the timezone to be a city name for some weird reason. Thus I had two plugins that wanted two conflicting things.

This is the fix I came up with that seems to work just fine for me : )
In buddypress: \bp-core\bp-core-functions.php
Find: function bp_core_time_since
Change: $newer_date = ( !$newer_date ) ? strtotime( bp_core_current_time() ) : $newer_date;
so that bp_core_current_time() becomes bp_core_current_time(false)

This passes over to the bp_core_current_time() which defaults as true which sets it to automatically handle the activity time differences as GMT instead of your time zone.

I’m not a WordPress pro but it looked like you could just hook into this function if you wanted to or override it, but this was the route I knew how to take.

As a result of that group forum tab was vanished.

@chathuranga Not seeing this issue. Is this a new WP/BP installation or are your group forums created in BP version earlier than 1.6? What other plugins do you have installed?

I’m using buddypress.1.8.1, bbPress 2.3.2, wordpress-3.5.2 and buddypress default theme.

have you upgraded to WP 3.6 yet?

@hughshields thanks for updating us e Suffusion theme.

but as soon as i turn it into a multi-site, new registrations via buddypress don’t work.

@alimjivraj
– Did you activate BuddyPress via Network Admin > Plugins activate BuddyPress?
– Did you configure BuddyPress in a subsite instead of the main site?
– What other plugins do you have activated? Did you check whether anyone of those plugins have conflict with BP registration?
– What are your WP/BP versions?
