ParticipantHi @chouf1, just wondering if you could help me a little more with the above code. I don’t mean to bump this but with people not getting there @mentions notifications here I am afraid it will be overlooked. Thank you kindly!

ModeratorYou can’t just install and not take action to limit server requests. You need to cache as much as possible and use a CDN. Also check logs you can have bots hitting site and you can block those.
Find out what is hitting ajax file and block it.

@mercime
Participant@amrvignesh based on the response and resolved status of this topic, the instructions worked out well for the OP for the theme version as of Nov. 16, 2012. If the theme has been updated/revised since then, that could be the reason why it’s not working for you. Site URI?

ParticipantHave either of you actually directed these questions/issues to the appropriate places?
https://github.com/Courseware/buddypress-courseware/issues
or the WP forum for the plugin.
I would also be seeking to get an understanding of whether this plugin is to be supported going forward as there seems to be some differings views I’ve seen and knowing one of the authors they are extremely busy with other projects.
Be very careful about building sites based on third party plugins, you have to have a fair idea they will be supported or learn the necessary skills to keep them running.

ParticipantI am glad that someone else has the same problem as I do. Again, I will ask what is the correct combination of Buddypress and courseware that will work. Obviously with so many downloads of both people are using it.
Also, since it is obvious that the issues I presented are not just on my box, what is the course of action of for getting the bugs fixed that are creating these issues?
I REALLY need to get these things resolved in some manner. I don’t care if that is installing a previous version of Buddypress and Courseware.

ParticipantSolved, thanks for you help, this was the issue…
One of the options to change the site URL is to add:
update_option(‘siteurl’,’http://www.example.com’);
update_option(‘home’,’http://www.example.com’);
to functions.php fileI did this, but added to the core theme functions file.
I now have added this to functions.php in the Buddypress theme under plugins > bp-themes > bp-default and it works
Thanks

ParticipantThanks,
issue: links to pages changed sitename to ‘named’ URL and, but links for buddypress data, eg users remains as numbers, 192.xxx.x.xxx URL, so not changed.
I changed the sitename in the wp-config.php file with:
define(‘WP_HOME’,’http://www.example.me/wordpress’);
define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’http://www.example.me/wordpress’);checked the database, bb_meta and wp_options has the changed URL’http://www.example.me/wordpress
Looking further, on the settings > general page the fields have been greyed out, but only the Site Address (URL) has registered the change, the WordPress Address (URL) remains as the numbered IP and is not changed.
It looks like the issue is that the ‘define’ code in wp-config needs to change the WordPress Address (URL), but has not.
Thanks

ParticipantLet me re-create the scenario for the third time and provide you more details… here are the list of plugins and their versions…
BuddyPress 1.6.4 Activated
Collabpress 1.2.3. Activated
BuddyPress Default Theme 1.6.4 ActivatedThis time I tried something new… I simply deactivated the plugin… and opened the front-end. Got the white screen again. Without even deleting the plugin.
But when I re-Activated the plugin and refresed the page… the website came back again….
Now a 3 out of 3 times success rrate.
Hope this helps..

It’s been a while with this topic. Any updates? or any new idea how to populate buddypress profiles with facebook data?

Participant“In my experience the notion of a perfect host is a canard….but WPE aside from any deal killing kind of quirks is the best platform you could be hosted on”
O_o
So there is no perfect host… and WPE is that host.
Got it.
And anyone who has a host that provides better servers, better tech support and cheaper rates is what? lying?
oookeeee
I suppose we’ll have to agree to disagree then
🙂

ParticipantUnfortunately as that says nothing about the types of requests going to the Ajax file, it’s not very helpful.
Is your site using an object cache?
I’m not quite sure what an object cache is. If it helps, I am using CloudFare with my website.
How do I find out what requests are going to the Ajax file?
As for Ajax it is being used far too much, people don’t seem to get why it oughtn’t to be or when it’s even suitable to be used – people love gimmicks and that’s all Ajax is – even if I do like using it myself.
I have disabled WordPress’ autosave in posts too, which I think uses ajax. As far as I’m aware, I haven’t put any ajax on my website, so I’m assuming the ajax calls must be from the plugins.
My plugins, if this helps:
– Advanced Custom Fields
– Akismet
– bbPress
– bbPress Topics for Posts
– BP Template Pack
– BuddyPress
– BuddyPress Custom Profile Menu
– Custom Post Template
– GD bbPress tools
– Google Analyticator
– Google XML Sitemaps
– Restrict Content Pro
– Use Google Libraries
– WordPress Backup to Dropbox
– WP MinifyI’m going to try and move it to the Virtual Server on MT.

ParticipantHi. I’m the guy.
I would note the fact that he states that the CEO issued personal apology and reimbursement for the migration issue, thats seems like at least they took the issue seriously at some point.
Only after it reached the front page of Hacker News (they didn’t really seem too fussed otherwise). My favourite part is where Jason Cohen — not having read my rant at all — called me “bitter and hateful” and a “hater” on Twitter.
WP Engine is the only company that provides both phone support and specialized wp hosting as far i know.
The phone support was as useless as the email support. I know, because I stayed up late for several nights. My favourite part is that my sites would go down most of the damn time, I would ring and I’d press the number to get urgent after-hours-on-call-right-away-sir support … and nobody would answer. You know what my favourite sound is? Two minutes of ringtone on an international call.
This happened several times.
It is also the only hosting company i know that Automattic is financially involved in, to me that means something
Argumentum ad verecundiam is no guarantee of good service, as I discovered.
aside from any deal killing kind of quirks is the best platform
My “deal-killing quirk” was believing their marketing copy: that they could migrate and host mainline code, including multisite. They couldn’t.

ParticipantThis tutorial is decent but if your using different versions of WP, BP, and a different theme then expect to have to make some adjustments. It is a good starting point though!

Participant@ebraxton30 Deactivate BP Template Pack plugin. Salutation theme, as I remember it, has BuddyPress template files already in theme’s folder.

Participant@chouf1 with your help and hnla’s I have this working but even with the above examples in how to get the counts in a drop down I am not certain how to do this. Where do I place:
echo bp_friend_get_total_requests_count( $user_id );
echo bp_get_total_unread_messages_count($name );
echo count($notifications);
In the code because it either fires off an error or it actually echo’s the code. What am I doing wrong? Thanks again for all your help! 🙂
`
function custom_toolbar($wp_toolbar) {
global $wp_admin_bar;if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
$wp_toolbar->add_node(array(
‘id’ => ‘bp-notifications’,
‘title’ => __(‘

‘href’ => bp_loggedin_user_domain() . bp_get_messages_slug() . ‘/notices/’,

@mercime
Participant@talkgridadmin initial scan of your theme reveals that you would have to revise 17 template files from the 6 BuddyPress folders transferred to your sportsedge theme folder in server during the BP compatibility process.
You could opt to wait for BuddyPress 1.7 which will automagically transfer required BP template files and you’d just need to delete the 6 BP template folders from your theme folder and deactivate the BP Template Pack plugin — unless the theme has added its own templating system
To check which is the recommended course, open up your theme’s page.php file, copy all and paste into pastebin.com, click submit and post the generated URI here

Participant@nahin This happens when you have a multisite installation and you activate BuddyPress in subsite’s admin and not network-wide in Network Admin > Plugins. Is this the case with your installation?
