Making WordPress SEO plugin compatible with BuddyPress

@omgayush recently posted template for sahifa

You just need to tweak CSS a little afterwards.

Buddypress 1.7 introduced Theme Compatibility, this process allows BP to seamlessly work with the vast majority of themes simply by activating BP. When it doesn’t work is due to the theme not following the standard WP process for looping content in page.php, however this is in the hands of the theme author , BP can have a custom top level template used in place of page.php and that can be modified to work with BP and the theme but the theme author would need to help you with that.

Well i think you have some competition already but there’s certainly nothing wrong with a new outfit trying to help promote what can be done with wordpress/buddypress so i think you would be welcomed in that endeavor. Not sure i have a good answer for that last one maybe sites like yours? If your site becomes popular and effective enough perhaps even more mainstream sites? i hear there is a new wordpress focused media outfit at torquemag.io maybe they have some interest?

This is a problem with your theme not BuddyPress I’m afraid. Your theme is choosing to load it’s own copy of jQuery for whatever reason instead of using the version bundled with WP, your theme is using 1.6 which is a little outdated now , WP is currently using 1.8; the ‘on’ method requires 1.7 iirc.

Are you using the default theme provided by WordPress? Have you installed bbpress?
To go to BuddyPress settings, go to
Settings > Buddypress..

still looking for a solution!

You shouldn’t be using Genesis Connect with current versions of BuddyPress.

From the Genesis Connect developer:

As of BP 1.7 you do not need to have GenesisConnect. We are currently maintaining it for customers who had BP installs prior to BP 1.7.

Having a same issue. @modemlooper for my case I did click the link on activation email. it only gives error when you try to sign in with bbpress login widget after you get account activated success message.

Anyone have solution for this issue?

@leonardlapena per your first post ….

but ultimately my registration page is still blank. If anyone has any suggestion I’d greatly appreciate it

hence my response to check if your WP registration works if BP is deactivated 🙂

Re BuddyPress hosted on yahoo, isn’t that shared hosting or do they have VPS already? Sorry, but not all shared hosting plans can handle BuddyPress. Many have to upgrade to VPS when traffic is highter and then later upgrade to dedicated servers for really high traffic sites. Doesn’t yahoo hosting tech support have other ways for users to contact them, like support tickets, or live chat, etc.? Better than being on hold for 4 hours 🙂

@leonardlapena Have you asked yahoo hosting tech support if you can install BuddyPress there with your current plan? In your BP in godaddy, did you check if registration works if you deactivate BuddyPress?

Hi there,

Did you ever get your code cleaned up enough to post? I’m having a similar issue, but not able to follow the hints enough to find my own solution.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

@wlk-1
BuddyPress xProfiles ACL hasn’t been updated in almost 2 years so I doubt it is compatible with the current version of BP. You can always request support from the plugin authors support forum but from what I can see the author has not been active on that forum in over a year.

Also do a search on google and youtube for buddypress.

Hi,
At the heart of BuddyPress it’s simply a plugin that has a range of components making community features capable on a WordPress site. However, it’s much more than that. Think of it as a toolkit, you can bring in whatever works for the site you are going to create. However, like a toolkit you would rarely use everything on every project. You may use activity streams, maybe profiles on a site – not every site is the same.

The start of every BuddyPress site really comes the thinking about what your community will need. Then you pick the components that fit the community.

Hopefully that helps?

I would try the woothemes community support, it’s a premium theme so they ought to be able to help.

No copying page.php to a new file named buddypress.php is only when you need to change how bp call say sidebars or if the original file is not suitable for displaying BP content. Normally you should have to do nothing BP simply injects it’s screens/content into the area where page.php would render page content and by the look of that page.php file the right structure is present for BP to be able to work.

You have some other problem going on but screen shots aren’t going to help diagnose what that is, looks as though you aren’t picking up BP basic styles though and also possibly some mal-formed markup causing layout to break.

Have you asked about this with the theme authors?

wait so you saying that when you take the menu item out in appearance > menus it effects your wp adimn bar?

if the theme is showing all pages you might be able to just delete the page but i’m not sure if that would break buddypress or not.

You’ll need to explain just what you mean by we purchased the Buddypress Theme BuddyPress is an open source project it is free to download, use and modify, there is no ‘the buddypress theme’ there is a bundled bp-default theme that is packaged in with the main files and free.

As far as I’m aware BP does not make use of the jQuery accordion library for anything, also BuddyPress has no ‘custom.js’ file.

You appear to be referring to some custom third party theme here and you need to take these issues to that themes authors for help & support.
