BuddyPress.org

@ubernaut Where I would I find this button? Is it a widget? I do not see any button anywhere on my page.

well there should be a button on your blogs page (or whatever you have named your network directory page).

@unwoundmag you can add the following to your theme’s style.css file

`div.item-list-tabs {
background: #000 !important;
}
div.item-list-tabs#subnav {
background: #222 !important;
}`

Adjust color to taste

@masonjames I am having this same problem, but my link contains /blogs/

http://domain.com/blogs/create/

This link still does not work and takes me to a “page not found”

Any more info on this?

@Alexander Did you ever find the create blog link? I am running into the same situation as you. I need users to be able to create a blog after registration.

I did find a link in the dashboard under ” my sites” that says “create a new site” but the link is dead. It brings me to a “page not found”.

The issue was fixed in BP 1.6 https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4362 Could you check your wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-classes.php to check if your BP was upgraded properly?

Missing Buddypress menu in WP Dashboard

BuddyPress menu no longer has a main menu but is now located in wp-admin Settings > BuddyPress

@scoobydoobydoo I’ve seen this issue before with old BP version and another one with a theme which has not been updated for some time. What are your WP/BP versions? Are you using BP Default theme?

@ciumbargi know that those who help out in these forums are all volunteers who generously do their best to assist others even though they are not paid to do so. It is indeed unfortunate that you see an advice about how to find the correct selectors in different browsers as a negative even after some assistance was already given for what was not quite clear in the request.

As I see it, the issue is resolved in your site viewing it using Firefox. If it is not, then I advise you to post at the Pagelines forums and include info about what browser you’re using so that they can fix it … thereby benefiting the rest of the Pagelines customers.

Have a nice day.

@hrvach007 see https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/6717

@ebraxton30 thanks for posting back as to what caused the issue in your installation

@raminkhan Please bring this to the attention of the theme author by posting at theme’s support forums at https://wordpress.org/support/theme/frisco-for-buddypress It would be good if you can attach a screenshot of the issue or barring that, be more specific about your description of the issue.

and decided that it’s probably best to get rid of the site wide forums

@rayela if you want to have the forums in your site, keep the site wide forums as the BP internel group forums are being merged into the sitewide forums.

If I uninstall the bppress plug-in and reinstall it, will I lose all of the groups that I created?

No, you will not lose the groups you have created. But then again, per previous paragraph, if you plan to have forums in your site, you should keep bbPress forums activated in your site.

http://www.tafaforum.com/forums/ …. I think that is the biggest problem that is keeping the sitewide forums from working properly.

I believe you’ve figured out by now that that link does lead to the sitewide forums

@ciumbargi I don’t see why you should be blaming BuddyPress for any flaws 🙂 when you’re using a premium pagelines theme which requires afaik a premium pagelines plugin for BP compatibility. The style issues are either with your theme or your plugin and since you’ve paid for both, you should get support from author by posting in pagelines forums.

@ciumbargi no one could solve as there wasn’t an issue to solve what you have is your design, and how it thinks things should look, if you think otherwise then you are free to modify it this is the beauty of WP child themes but you do need to learn a little coding and get familiar with basic CSS.

Mercime has provided a snippet of code if that’s not exactly what you need then you must try and modify it.

Hi there,

3. Got to Group -> Forums and what I get? I have got error!

Error like this:

Info: WP3.5 , BP 1.6.3 , http://www.cyklodenik.cz

Could you please take a look on it? It will happen to you?

Thanks a lot.

@mercime This helped me and got my test buddypress1.7 site correct…I changed the bbpress slug to discussions and using the domain.com/discussions i see the forum. I am using group forums and all topics are displaying in that page properly…now do i need to redirect that page to my actual forum page or is there any short code for it?

I had the same issue and I want to share here what I did to make activation emails reach the inbox (especially in Gmail):
– added SPF and DKIM DNS records in order to certify that the e-mails are legitimate, especially if your host uses a third party service to send them, or they get sent from a different domain
– changed the default “from” e-mail address and “from name” fields using a plugin. I used WP-Mail-SMTP plugin that also allows me to use my own e-mail address (like a google apps one), but there are plenty others that you could use

After these steps the e-mails were still being marked as spam by Gmail and the only thing left was to edit the activation e-mail content itslef. Thank you Paul for adding the option in Welcome Pack plugin. I enabled “Customise the emails sent by BuddyPress, either in plain text or rich HTML versions.” I then edited the content and subject by adding more text and there it was, activation e-mail wasn’t marked as spam anymore.

I hope this helps someone else as I spent quite some time making it work 🙂
