@parmkals
As @ubernaut stated I would FTP BuddyPress because if you do not have access to the php.ini then you can not change it and it may hang when downloading and installing BP. If that is the case then just download BP to your hard drive extract it and FTP it to: your-site/wp-content/plugins on your server. You will need the credentials from the server to do this and that is something only you can acquire. I supplied a link that will hopefully help you get started if your not familiar with this process. Good luck!

@mercime

@faramarz thanks for posting the error, see https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/fatal-error-unable-to-create-forum-from-buddypress-group/#post-135487

EDIT – Trac Ticket at https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2374

However as this post suggests and others this issue is perhaps not bbPress specific but BP and needs a trac entry on bp rather than bbPress.

you can download the zip file extract it then upload via ftp to your plugins folder.

@zanora

https://wordpress.org/plugins/debug-bar-bbpress/ will show you what bbpress templates are used.

This works as an add-on to https://wordpress.org/plugins/debug-bar/ which is in itself useful when editing stuff…

@megainfo Those are historical groups before the changeover to bbPress, then groups were automagically created from WP repo submissions as long as something or other was in the plugin header, but since that change those groups no longer function as support avenues.

@hnla,I dont remember from where i was past this part of text, but sure from an old buddypress readme.txt plugin and i was used since long time as template file for all my plugins.
You can check the readme.txt for all my others plugins too.

I want ask you a question , why some old plugins have a forum support in the buddypress forum
i mean ?

Plugin Forums

@megainfo do correct me if I’m wrong but is this not another re-hash of an older plugin?

You have this line in the readme.txt https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-wall/forum/
Why it points nowhere, why are you saying the WP support forum for plugin is really checked and to post here with support issues? BP support does not offer support for third party plugins the correct place to offer/deal with support is on the provided WP plugin support.

All we can advise is to change to twentytwelve theme if issue corrects itself as it will then it’s a theme issue and it will be down to the author to provide some solution really. BP theme compatibility is a simple process requiring just that a regular WP conforming page.php exists.

that’s pretty much the extent of my plugins

Disable them all, all except crucial i.e BP, checking the page validation shows a un-recoverable markup error that looks to be the fault of something facebook related (doesn’t surprise me!)

I have disabled all plugins and have the latest version of Buddypress and WordPress on a multisite installation. On the registration page the username field insists on lowercase characters. The only way around this for me is to change the hint.

Which file do I edit to change hint from “Usernames can contain only letters, numbers, ., -, *, and @” to something like “Usernames can contain only lowercase letters, numbers, ., -, *, and @”

Hey guys! I’m the owner of BuddyBoss and just reading though these comments. We have a mobile version coming out August 15th. You can see the demo here: http://www.buddyboss.com/demo/

@flyveren Thanks for the compliments 🙂 We work hard to keep everything up to date. This new version is built around BuddyPress 1.7 / 1.8, the way BP now allows any WordPress theme to work with it. We rebuilt it as a standard WordPress theme with our custom features only used when BuddyPress is activated.

Curious to see that @puggy! It seems that most ESO fansites I’ve seen are using WordPress — and for great reason, though none pull it off as well as Tamriel Foundry does, if I’m being completely honest. When I created TESOF, I originally intended it to be just a forum, so it was quite a bit of hassle to create certain sections based off of the MyBB forum software itself.

Since Curse, Inc. now owns TESOF, I won’t be taking part in much of the development, but I am making a new project based off of the WordPress/BuddyPress/bbPress combo (unrelated to ESO), and it’s coming along nicely. You can see most of that development on my personal blog. Most of my posts for the last few months are about the new project.

Annnnd, that’s enough of me hijacking @aaclayton’s topic. Keep up the good work with TF, you guys are really flourishing!

Here’s to the Elder Scrolls Online. *Takes a drink*

Very cool to find that Tamriel Foundry is built on BuddyPress. I’m actually starting work on an Elder Scrolls Online site myself, and I’m encouraged to see you guys are using BuddyPress as well.

My site will be taking a different direction than yours (although there may be some overlap) and it will be interesting to see the two sites side-by-side once mine is ready.

@iconimagery pretty sure it’s not BP. Change to Twenty Twelve theme and deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress in your test platform.

Looks like a great plugin! I’ll give it a whirl over the next few days.

I also found a really nice plugin here that seems to do the job. Is that the one you’re referring to?

@nerdicus99
You must have been mistaken because that was never in the BP core. It was only offered as a plugin. The privacy settings in xprofiles has been there since 1.6 but the activity post privacy was never added to the core and it took BuddyPress Activity Privacy plugin to make that happen. I would like to see this included in the core eventually but that is up to the dev team to decide and if @megainfo supplies a workable patch. If not then hopefully the plugin will continue to be developed as BP matures.
