@plugonline just so that we’re on the same page, do you have a new installation?
– If so, did you follow the updated instructions at https://codex.buddypress.org/user/setting-up-a-new-installation/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/
– Did you change to the BP default theme just to check if you can create a post and select the group forum?

You likely haven’t followed the manual steps to adjust the BP templates to match your theme.

As 1.7 is pretty much ready and in final phases of testing you might be better to wait or upload the beta to test with as 1.7 removes the need for template pack and will work with any theme.

BuddyPress 1.7 Beta 1

I just updated the newest version of BuddyPress.

@plussizebirth
– Do you mean the stable BP 1.6.4 or BP 1.7 beta 1?
– Where
– How did you update BP, via FTP or dashboard plugin update link?
– Is that the complete error or did you miss some lines before or after that
– Rename the BuddyPress plugin folder in server to e.g.wp-content/plugins-buddypressproblem in order to access your dashboard

@homeschoolmommy For your new installation, please follow instructions for installing forums at https://codex.buddypress.org/user/setting-up-a-new-installation/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/

You can either put it in bp-custom.php or the functions.php of your theme.

The advantage of using bp-custom.php is the functions will be always available(even on multisite) and since this file is loaded before anything else in BuddyPress, you don’t have to worry about the availability of your functions.

If you put your code in any of these two files, you don’t need to reference/include these files. They are included automatically.

Hope that helps.

“But if the project I am building requires social and the only solution is Buddypress and it does not support even basic SEO…”

You have it reversed. It is Yoast’s plugin that doesn’t support BP. It is the plugin developer’s responsibility to make their code compatible. The best idea is to contact Yoast (Joost). He’s a very hands on guy and would respond to an inquiry like this either via email or on the WP SEO support forum.

@manojhl123 could you be more specific about what topic info? Group Forums or Sitewide Forums? bbPress has topics widget you can add to sidebar. WordPress/BuddyPress/bbPress versions?

Look up “Removing the links automatically created in a member’s profile” https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/customizing/bp-custom-php/

See Removing the links automatically created in a member’s profile ?

Yes you need to make your wordpress a multisite install buddypress has additional features which are multisite dependent.

@kizzywizzy – The function get_user_meta() just returns the data; it does not display it. So if that is the only line of code you’ve added, you won’t see any output. You’ll want to assign the output of the function to a variable and echo that, or just echo the output directly.

Here is the example from the Codex:

<?php 
  $user_id = 9;
  $key = 'last_name';
  $single = true;
  $user_last = get_user_meta( $user_id, $key, $single ); 
  echo '<p>The '. $key . ' value for user id ' . $user_id . ' is: ' . $user_last . '</p>'; 
?>

I just double checked, it has the same formatting as the others that I changed. I can’t figure this out.

Are you sure you uploaded the changes to server? I had to ask. I see no other plugin in source which could affect rendering of /groups/single/home.php

ok glad to help fyi there are some aspects that function across the network. For instance there is one unified user list (meaning if you are logged in on one site you are logged in as the same user in all sites as well) and some of the buddypress related widgets can be placed on any sub site also activity for the various sub sites will be listed on the primary sites activity feed (provided the sub site is public and you have the site tracking component enabled).

‘Just Work’! well there you go then I would stick with Joomla , however as a long time Standards developer I can tell you I wouldn’t touch Joomla with a barge pole, I publicly gave up helping any devs using the joomla platform due to the most terrible coding errors I  had seen of any application, and the sort of errors that hurt SEO.

When you have thought this through and realised that WP as a platform is a thousand times better regarded by search engines than say Joomla, we might be able to help, I’ve dealt with this issue in the past but would have to hunt out the code from one of my dev sites and test.
