BuddyPress.org

@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.

@silvre
Anything is possible if you have the skill to accomplish it. What your trying to do shouldn’t be too hard if you know WP and BP. The person that could perhaps shed more light is @sbrajesh from http://buddydev.com since it is his plugin and he is one of the best BuddyPress developers out there period. Don’t discount however the other members that volunteer here because your in good company on this forum and there are lots of members with vast knowledge of BP.

@3×7
Not a plugin but a tutorial. You may need to make adjustments depending on your theme but it is pretty straightforward if you know what parts need to be modified. I advise to only use this on a child theme as does the tutorial.

“BuddyPress does not work on installations where you give WordPress its own directory.”

@lwist That is true. Read the link about that specific WP install “in its own directory” https://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory, it involves moving htaccess file and index.php from the subdirectory where WP is installed to domain root, among others. That scenario is totally different from installing WP in subdirectory e.g. example.com/buddypress and keeping every WP file in that subdirectory. There’s no conflict at all.

formatting on that section of the page is kind of messed up

Looks fine to me in FF. What browser are you using?

@samuelboland
In dashboard/settings/buddypress/components make sure you click the box beside account settings and save. Otherwise it won’t show up!

there’s probably a term you can swap for is_site_admin() but i don’t know what it is, sorry.
