BuddyPress.org

I have just solved this problem by replacing parts of the default bp-core-functions.php archive where it says “function bp_core_time_since”
I used parts of this file: https://svn.buddypress.org/tags/1.6-RC1/bp-core/bp-core-functions.php

Please can someone help with this, or at least put me in touch with a developer I can contact to pay to fix this?

Two more points:

I am using theme rt_tachyon_wp. In its wp-content folder in rt_tachyon_wp there is a folder called buddypress_off. Inside are folders: activity, forums, groups, members. Should there be any more?

In the buddypress folder in default them is a registration folder and inside that is a register.php and activate.php

This has been updated to WP 3.6 and BP 1.8.1

Can I switch themes on my live site without breaking it to see if it is a theme and then switch back afterwards?

Please help. Thanks, Mike.

oops sure looks that way http://ourcog.org/buddypress/
How do I correct that? Remove it and make the other
pages _no parent_ ? Thanks!

Thank you!
I’ve updated consistently without missing any updates with every update since 1.6
I am currently at 1.81. Theme and plugins are compatible and working w/o problems.
.htaccess has not been changed since initial installation but I checked it again
and do not see anything that specify /buddypress/ in the URL which I see both in
groups and members ex. http://ourcog.org/buddypress/members/d-alan/ //THANKS

Where on smeak? (is this your website ? )

yes, i know, that is the problem that i’m having and of course why i can’t use it. you just keep bringing up the same issue. i’m well aware of what it does and does not do. been using it for years. it’s why i asked the question in the first place, just to see if things have changed in 1.8.1. i have already acknowledged that i know you can use buddypress on multisite but each site on my network is it’s own community and the subject of each is different, so it defeats the purpose to have all network-wide activity in one place. And it’s a fact that every site on the network is wordpress based, uses all of the same plugins and definitely could be running on a single network if Buddypress would work on each site individually. I know there is value in the way that BP works currently on multisite, some people prefer it, but i’m not the only one that would also like it to function independently on each site as well. Would be a great feature to have. Not holding my breath though, decided that 2 years ago. I currently use ManageWP to manage all sites or it would be impossible to do with my current staff.

Hello !
With the last update of Buddypress, everything is now ok according this link activity issue ! Thank you !!

@mercime
I really appreciate your quick reply.
Now I’m using buddypress default theme. I changed the theme to Twenty Twelve theme & Twenty Eleven theme and re-installed buddypress and bbpress.
I tested with these 4 themes(buddypress default theme,Twenty Twelve theme,Twenty Eleven theme, Onecommunity theme),
but unfortunately same result.
After resolving this problem, I’m expecting to use Onecommunity theme as the client requirement.

Thanks

@mercime still the same issue with bp 1.8.1 , when I made the edits directly in buddypress default theme it worked right away, but no matter what I add to style.css of my child theme no changes are refelcted, any solution?

Thanks for the reply. Sure it’s “compatible” but not fully functional as multisite plugin, since it is only able to be used on a single site in the network. I need it to work on each site in the network separately, multiple instances. I’ve tried all of the plugins and even some recommended changes to the code to get this to work properly over the last 2 or 3 and nothing works very well, nothing is consistent enough to use in a live environment without alot of headaches. I’ll just keep managing my multiple sites until BP is able to do what i need natively. Thanks!

The plugin has this setting, yes. (Screenshot at http://yn.yazzietech.com/data/Message_Attachment_Settings.jpg ) That is true, I am running on a Redhat Linux hosting account, so I figure block the scripts that could be executed on Unix and that would cover it. I suppose you could also change a file’s permission to 644 on Upload? What is annoying is this plugin prints the allowed types, resulting in nonsense like this: http://yn.yazzietech.com/data/BuddyPress_Messages.jpg
