BuddyPress.org

Have you checked the BP documentation yet?

https://codex.buddypress.org/legacy/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#step-three

Have you a basic degree of HTML/PHP knowledge, you will need a basic level to be bale to copy/paste the markup structure of BP template files to match the themes structure which is what step three is about and I’m afraid is a manual process.

If you can’t manage the adjustment of the files it may be better to wait for BP 1.7 to drop as that will work with any theme.

Initial scan shows that you only need to create two/three files for alignment and compatibility.

@dazunj Thanks for posting your solution. There are themes which do not require the BP template pack plugin at all 🙂

If the page mapping is correct, and you’ve tried disabling all other plugins to see if the problem goes away, please report a bug on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org so that someone can investigate. You can use your username and password from this site. Thanks!

Happy New Year! Here’s to another exciting year with BuddyPress.
Cheers! Kampai! Salud!

I’d first up suggest the following codex page for WordPress: https://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress_Locally_on_Your_Mac_With_MAMP. Get that sorted BuddyPress is the easy bit.

It’s a little old but perhaps this can help you: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-could-i-display-photo-thumbnails-in-the-profile-header/

@dazunj It looks like the theme has not been upgraded to latest WP/BP versions. Please contact theme vendor about necessary theme upgrade. It is also possible that your theme upload was not complete, try re-uploading theme via FTP and check if issue is resolved.

I have the same issue. Im hosting on justhost with a linux server and wordpress 3.5.
Everything was just fine before the last update but now some users can’t register because it just refreshes the page. Do someone knows more specific what is the issue? I think is an issue with buddypress and some browsers.

Does everything else in BuddyPress seem to work?

hi,

@karmatosed give’s you the right answer.

Actually your header CSS looks like:
`#header { background-image: url(http://www.bragyou.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/bragyou_header.png); }`

You have to change this to:`#header { background: url(http://www.bragyou.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/bragyou_header.png) no-repeat; }`

Where ? Into your child theme style.css file

But couldn’t seem to get it to work

The tutorial by @pcwriter was pretty much spot-on. Could be a theme or plugin conflict or might be that you missed a step or two in the tutorial. Have you posted in said article by being specific as to precisely where you hit the roadblock/s in the tutorial?

Is there a plugin that can I do this?

@tandyman You could use the Members plugin by Justin Tadlock https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/members/ though you might have to configure the other customizations from pcwriter’s article.

For my part point 2 is not working at all. I mean as an admin I can do point 2 but as a moderator I can’t. ==> Edit, close, and delete any forum topic or post in the group

You should be able to do this as Group Mod. WP/BP versions? Have you done basic troubleshooting like changing to BP Default theme and deactivating other plugins except BuddyPress?

– I can’t access admin tab I am redirect to home group.

@laminedj – that’s where this all started and what the trac ticket (link above) is all about.

– Delete post is not present in group activity stream

Change to BP Default theme, the delete button/link is there for Group Mod in Activity Stream.

– I can’t ban users because I can’t access admin area

Group Mods cannot ban users, only Group Admins can do that. You can mark forum posts of such as Spam.

@johnjf based on your topic, I assume this is in reference to bbPress plugin aka Sitewide Forums. If so, only the Super Admin or the Administrator can create Forums or Sub-Forums. If other users are doing so in your installation, you could have been hacked or could have set “Administrator” as default role of new users in your installation.

Hello,

My issue is not about edit or delete roup bit about moderation role :

In BP Codex it said : https://codex.buddypress.org/user/setting-up-a-new-installation/group-settings-and-roles/

Moderators: When a group member is promoted to be a moderatorof the group, it means that the member receives the following additional abilities:

1. Edit group details, including the group name and group description
2. Edit, close, and delete any forum topic or post in the group
3. Edit and delete other kinds of content, as produced by certain plugins (eg Group Documents)

For my part point 2 is not working at all. I mean as an admin I can do point 2 but as a moderator I can’t.

– I can’t access admin tab I am redirect to home group.

– Delete post is not present in group activity stream

– I can’t ban users because I can’t access admin area

Any advise ?

Let me add some more in detailed, hope someone could help for people from 2013 and forth too. ^^

The 1st time to install the BuddyPress, after activating the plugin, it will show one button, called “installation wizard” (http://domain.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=bp-wizard), from where, we can start the installation process.

However, once if you failed and even you unistall everything, it would jump to this page: http://domain.com/wp-admin/plugins.php?activate=true&plugin_status=all&paged=1&s=, in which the programe would ask you to repair things.. like memebers, groups, which I deleted when I uninstalled the BuddyPress.

But for the very 1st time, when you install the buddypress, it won’t ask you to repair, because, it shouldn’t be there from the beginning.

I hope this could help somebody to see what the issue is her more clear.

Thank you. and .. wish, well, everyone. Happy New Year!

I am having problem in installing the buddypress, hence, tried to uninstall it and try from the beginning.. I have the same problem in uninstalling the buddypress.

I have tried to delete everything totally, including buddypress and related plugins, pages (deleted from trash too), and the generated folders in the child theme’s folder, by FTP.
I dont see any bp-config.php file in my domain. (I checked entire folder)

However, when I tried to re-install the BuddyPress, I found that some previous settings, like I unselected the discussion, was still there, and the program just won’t create those related folders “again”. It asked me repair them..

Please someone help to solve this issue, either by deleting the buddypress completely, or by some other method?..

Thanks.
