Hello, if you’re still interested I had the same problem and found a solution I described in my blog here

Glad if I could help 🙂

on the top left, under the logo. create a new topic.

under the form and the tag line, select the forum “your buddypress”

@tarkham Not for nothing, but you’re also using the Vantage theme, which is still fairly buggy as I’m sure you already know. If you need help with Vantage, let me know, as I’ve been chopping it up and cleaning up some of the code for one of my own installs of the theme. You can find me on their forum and PM me at VegasKev

@jjj John, you were completely right about my comments not being very helpful in my last post on this thread. I should have taken notes when I started seeing the bugs I saw in 1.7 back then, but I was all hopped up on redbull and was working on minimal sleep. That is my fault entirely. My apologies.

of course.

Sounds like you didn’t completely move all the files in.

Also, I deleted the full paths to your file server that you pasted; unless you want to make yourself vulnerable to attack, which I would advise against. 🙂

hi,

to know what is done and not in upcoming BP version, and so on, there is only one address:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/report

When you update WP and BP, do you also update your theme if you use a third party theme ? Troubles you describe let me think you have some JS conflict somewhere.

Yes.

did you checkek skeleton ? It’s a good starting point.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-skeleton-component/

PHP Script Memory limit is there for a very particular reason, it’s set as a limit  to ensure that no script running on the server can end up consuming all the main system memory and thus crashing your whole server, setting what you have suggests all of your machines main memory and you may well run into issues, 128M or 256M should be more than enough to run WP/BP.

I would also not trust to setting this php config from WP check what is actually set using phpinfo()

hi @somdefabrica,

have you tested with the bp-default template activated ?

Deactivate also any plugin except BP and reactivate one by one to try to find a culprit.

delete the content of htaccess and put this:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

and create a phpinfo() file at the root of your site and check the exact php version.

Google to see what is phpinfo if you don’t know

Where do you try to insert the code ? The code works if you put it in bp-custom.php (this file should be in wp-content/plugins) , i tested it before publishing here and a tab appears on the profile page.

Copy/pasting from here is odd, take care with cotes.

I don’t know about a good tutorial. View here and try also bp-skeleton
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/plugin-development/creating-a-custom-buddypress-component/

have you php 5.2 or something greater?

WP requires more as 5.2.4 https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/

What is in the htaccess file ?

hi @ngoegan,

you have problems ? Me too ! But what kind of problems ? It’s not working as you expect is not really ” a problem” i guess….

You can’t find a register page ! Huh , because User registration is currently not allowed. It’s written here: http://livingcm.org/register/

Go to BP setting and show if you created all the pages needed by BP espacially “register” and “activate”. This must be done. If pages are OK,  check “Anyone can register” from here /wp-admin/options-general.php

How to do you set up your homepage ? Did you something like a static page or so ?
Have you changed a slug somewhere ?

Have you also changed the permalinks from default to something else ? Must be done to use correctly BP : D

Hi,
who’s your host ? What type of host do you have ? What is your host mysql and php version ?
What is your WP version ? Do you want to install BP on a single or MS wordpress ?

Hi @versipellis,

Make sure that you only attempt to set up the items after BP has set up its core navigation. You can ensure this by hooking to bp_setup_nav with a priority higher than 10.

https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/plugin-development/group-extension-api/

try this in bp-custom.php

<code>function my_bp_nav_adder() {

bp_core_new_nav_item(

array(

‘name’ => __( ‘Media Privacy’,’bp-media-privacy’ ),

‘slug’ => ‘media-privacy’,

‘position’ => 75,

‘show_for_displayed_user’ => true,

‘screen_function’ => ‘bp_media_privacy_link’,

‘item_css_id’ => ‘bp-media-privacy’

)
);

}

function bp_media_privacy_link () {

add_action( ‘bp_template_title’, ‘my_media_privacy_title’ );

add_action( ‘bp_template_content’, ‘my_media_privacy_content’ );

bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( ‘bp_core_template_plugin’, ‘members/single/plugins’ ) );

}

function my_media_privacy_title() {

echo ‘My Page Title’;

}

function my_media_privacy_content() {

echo ‘Add the content loop here’;

}

add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘my_bp_nav_adder’, 100 );
