@phatmass,
your link goes to a 404 error page….
1) if you narrowed down the culprit, the best is to ask for this on their support.
2) another way would be to re-check your forum settings, as explained here, as you use a general forum AND group forums.
3) use the buddypress repair tool
4) have you tested your install with one of WP’s twenty theme (just in case of…)
5) you could also activate debug in your wp-config to se if you get some information.
Miaw ! 😉
Hi @danbp, thanks for the note.
First of all I can still edit the activity page if that’s called activity. Members, groups and forums are locked to additions. I want to add some information for users – why shouldnt I be able to edit this page? It makes no sense.
Also that doesn’t not answer the question why changing the slug would have such an influence. Renaming the slugs used to be a built in buddypress option, since everybody wants to make their buddypress unique and right for their community.
@milenushka,
BuddyPress component pages like “activity”, “members”, etc are restricted to internal usage only. These page must stay empty in any case.
Please read here:
Configure BuddyPress
Give this a try – add to bp-custom.php or child-theme functions.php
This will show only blog activities on site/user activity & rss page.
function bpfr_filtering_activity( $retval ) {
$retval['object'] = 'blogs';
return $retval;
}
add_filter( 'bp_before_has_activities_parse_args', 'bpfr_filtering_activity' );
Codex reference: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/using-bp_parse_args-to-filter-buddypress-template-loops/
You could try 2 exprimental plugins published by @imath to achive your goal. Read details here:
1) http://wptavern.com/experimental-buddypress-plugin-adds-finer-controls-for-public-groups
2) http://wptavern.com/new-plugin-adds-taxonomies-to-buddypress-groups
#1 would probably be the nearest, even if the description won’t go to the group activity page 😉
As you know, too much information kill the information.
Hi @krglok the issue seems to be with your permalink structure you have to goto your wordpress dashboard>>settings>>permalinks and select the structure something like this yoursitename.com/sample-post-name now save the settings and try vising your buddypress pages the problem should be resolved,if not make sure you have set the pages for respective components in buddypress settings for this goto dashboard>>settings>>buddypress>>pages tab and set and save the respective pages as explaned in the link provided by @danbp above.
Note:You may have to create the pages if they are not already there thanks
Interesting thing.
When renaming the page name from activity to something else- the page will not display the added content- be it a shortcode or just some custom text that I write. Also the name of the page will not display and instead it says ” site wide activity”
I am using the latest version of wp and bp, theme -buddypress special.
I thought it might me theme realted but switching to a default theme doesn’t display the image added, nor the text.
I am talking about some custom wp content- “welcome to the site..” Not the activity feed that works fine.
P.s I also tried renaming the slug using “define slug” but it didn’t work.
Thanks @henrywright

Is there anyway to prevent the User Profile’s Activity page from removing “activity” from the URL?
I can see the link being generated as; http://website.com/member/username/activity/
Then, poof, it changes to; http://website.com/member/username/
This has caused a headache on multiple fronts, most solvable, but I can’t find a work around for .current_page_item > a css effect for the parent user activity page only. Every other page works fine. This damn url…
Wordpress multi, Buddypress (Current), Theme 2014
Hey there, I have looked everywhere on this forum and cannot find what I’m looking for. Apologies if this has already been answered.
For Activity Updates, at the moment there is only the ability to receive an email notification when:
a) A member mentions you in an update using “@[profile name]”
b) A member replies to an update or comment you’ve posted
Is there a way to send a notification email EVERY time there is an update, regardless of whether or not they have been tagged with “@” ?
It is for a community that does not have many updates occurring, however when they do they all want to receive a notification about it. WordPress 4.0.1 and Buddypress 2.1.1
Cheers!
When I install buddypress it creates a drop down menu in the upper right of the website with links to activity, profile, messages, friends, forums, settings, and a bunch of other sub links. But I get a page not found error when I click on the links. If I create the pages manually it will go to the pages but they are blank. I have tried setting up BP on several domains with the same results. I am familiar with the “pages” tab under BP settings but I don’t see anything associated with those pages. It only has members, activity streams, register, activate. How do I get those other pages set up?
I am using WordPress version 4.0.1 and Buddypress version 2.1.1
Thanks for replying. Where do I find the WordPress settings? Under settings in the dashboard I only have access to buddypress and general settings, along with other plugin settings.
I’m at a very amateur level with PHP, if I can avoid it that would be best. But simple adjustments are doable.
I’ve installed that plugin, but members still report that they are unable to post. If I can adjust the ‘spam’ filter that would be awesome, to allow nearly everything besides multiple links.
first of, ensure you correctly downloaded buddypress, than reinstall it.
Then follow the codex, step by step
Configure BuddyPress
I found the issue.
i must change the permalinks to “Beitragsname” localhost/wordpress/Beispielbeitrag/
with this option the create buddyPress groups will run.
Puh, almost a little bit confousing about what the the right option.
a little hint in installation or setup will be helpfull.
thanks.
I newly installed BuddyPress on my testserver (localhost) .
When i use the button new Group, always come 404 error.
wordpress/wp-admin/admin.php%3fpage=bp-groups
i looked into wordpress\wp-content\plugins\buddypress\bp-groups\admin
and there are no php files.
I made the group page and so on . they are empty, because i dont know what to write in, other then static text.
My suspicion is the missing pages are not in the zip file .
@djpaul thanks for join the thread. Here is a copy and paste from an email my host sent me:
The other day whilst we were on the phone I was able to view the potential issue in realtime and I could see that there were a growing number of PHP processes being spawned on the server and the RAM consumption of each process kept increasing.
I have attached a screenshot of my findings, although I do not recommend that you include this on any forum as it does include some sensitive information.
The top left section of the screenshot displays the TOP output of your server. As you can see most of the entires were from the Phoenix user, and each process was consuming between 95-259MB of RAM each. This kept growing.
The bottom left section was an Strace output from one of the PHP PID’s, which allows you to see exactly what a processes is doing. Each process referred to the same thing, which was something to do with buddypress.
The top right section displayed entires from the access log in realtime. As we discussed I believe the buddypress plugin loads content dynamically without having to refresh the page, which would explain the low activity in the access log.
The bottom right section was from the MySQL server. It displays the MySQL process-list, which was fine.
Ideally I would first try to find a buddypress developer and then provide them with that output, as it may help point them in the right direction to find out why your site consumes too much RAM.
Hopefully this may shed more light on my problems? Any help form anyone greatly appreciated.
We want it, too! There used to be some plugins around that did this for BP (I wrote one myself, in fact), but all the ones I know of are a few years old and probably out of date/won’t work any more.
Hopefully someone can suggest something to help you out now, but I just wanted to comment and let you know this is something I think will get added to BuddyPress in one of the future releases (sooner rather than later).
How do your team think it’s related to BuddyPress? If you have data that suggests that’s the problem, can you give us the details, so we can look into it?
It’s not wrong. If BuddyPress is enabled, then we use our own registration URL (the first one in your post).
Is there a way to add toolbars or buttons into a forums pages. I’ve tried several plugins such as tinyMCE but they seem to only effect the Blog or comments page. I’m running Buddypress version 2.1.1 and WordPress version 4.0.1. My main purpose is to increase the font size in the body of the forum. it seems quite small.
Update: I just found all the dead posts in the spam folder of ‘Activity’ how can I stop buddypress from labeling certain posts as spam?
Instead of using messages_new_message() to send a private message, you’d use bp_activity_post_update() to post an activity update. Note that the function accepts different arguments so you’ll need to amend those.
See here for more info on the function.
Thank you henry, but the photo that I selected is great and BuddyPress appears small, then, should not lose resolution.
Hi
My buddypress Activity page is not showing any of my comments how can I resolve this.
Thanks
Manoj
