I just checked your site. There’s only one navigation menu in your installation, the main navigation under the site title. Aside from that, you’re using the Suffusion theme which is a theme framework supported readily by the theme author. I suggest that you post this question at the Suffusion theme forums or at https://wordpress.org/tags/suffusion
@djpaul Posted a ticket.. Looks like a important bug… Could you maybe take look at this https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/problem-with-activity-search_terms-and-load-more/ also a bug or just a coding problem?
@richardpd please start a new topic with the forums issue. If I recall, you had group forums already working and sitewide forum was problematic.
I also cannot search or use pagination. When scrolling through plugins for example, when I click to view page 2, I just land on page 1 again. The url changes to 2, but the page that renders is the same as where I was before. Pretty odd.
I do see a search feature for the site as a whole. It seems to search blog posts and pages published to the site, but there is not a visible search feature for the forums.
Not sure, first time I’ve seen this. Upgrade via wp-admin or upload manually
-> to latest version BuddyPress 1.5.6
-> to latest version bbPress 2.0.3 (if you’ve got sitewide forums)
== However I can’t find how to open the forums, register, or activate pages at the top of my website to make a test account.==
You’re getting quite off-topic here. This is not related to Easel theme in any way. Did you go through the Installation Wizard after you activated BuddyPress?
== I’ve tried http://fifaadvocate.com/register/ but this directs me back to the home screen. ==
That usually happens when you’re logged in and then go to register page. You need to log out first. to register. Also, you could always create a test user account via wp-admin Users > Add New
That took care of the issue. I was confusing the current bbPress forum with the BP forum. Thanks for the reply.
Here’s the site: http://fifaadvocate.com/members/ However I can’t find how to open the forums, register, or activate pages at the top of my website to make a test account. “anyone can register” is enabled under Settings>General. I’ve tried http://fifaadvocate.com/register/ but this directs me back to the home screen. Anything I can do to open these pages?
Just to add what I’ve experienced today here, I can search just can’t use the pagination. It simply goes to the 1 page each time.
Sorry just to clarify you mean they can’t comment on blog posts or status updates? If that is the case what theme are you using and do you indeed see a comment button? Is it the submitting of the form that doesn’t work or do you not even see a button to comment?
If you are looking at using Disqus this thread is a good starting point: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/buddypress-disqus-integration/
Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you need to use the first option, i.e., change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your wp-clearvideo theme folder in server during the compatibility process.
If you’ve previously changed any of the BP template files in your theme folder in server, replace all of them for a clean slate by deleting the 6 BP folders – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility.
Download the 6 clean BP folders to your computer hard drive.
A. At the top of each of those 16 template files I linked to above, replace
`
with the following:
`
<?php
global $wp_query;
$postid = $wp_query->post->ID;
if ( get_post_meta( $postid, ‘post_featpages’, true ) == “Yes” ) { ?>
‘,’
‘); } ?>
Then, in each of 16 files, you’d like to change the BP Templates’ page title’s header tag from `
` or `
` to `
`, just watch out when you do this in the /activity/index.php page.
Save files.
@mercime – I am very sorry about the duplicate post. I tried to delete the other post (don’t know what I did wrong) when I wanted to create this one with more info. I am still unable to delete it but have edited it.
The forum search function is also not working for me.
The last thing I want to do is waste anyone’s time. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate any help, goviral
@subway1968 If you do not need Group Forums, you can go to dashboard menu BuddyPress > Components and deactivate (uncheck) “Discussion Forums”
I suppose this is related to your post https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/remove-subscribers-from-activity-feed/ ? If so, you are wasting the time of volunteers who respond to that post which did not indicate that you had a User Account Type plugin activated.
@ed161718 I will address your question at the link you posted above so we have one forum topic about easel woes.
You don’t say what your add action is hooked to ( or what the line number refers to ). Do you have a `’walled_garden’` hook in your template?
I would suggest trying the following (I use something similiar but allow access to groups and forums):
`
function sh_walled_garden()
{
global $bp;
if( bp_is_register_page() || bp_is_activation_page() )
return;
if( ! bp_is_blog_page() && ! is_user_logged_in() )
bp_core_redirect( bp_get_signup_page() );
}
add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘sh_walled_garden’ );
`
I also substitute `add_action( ‘wp_loaded’, ‘sh_walled_garden’ );` on a different site….
`bp_init` and `wp_loaded` are “native” to buddypress/wordpress so you don’t need to create your own template hook….
This is in a bp-custom-php file – using buddypress v1.5.5 as I haven’t upgraded to 1.5.6 yet….
Hi-thanks modernlooper for your reply
(I have now updated to latest BuddyPress & bbPress plugins-my site runs both plugins!).
Thankfully I have fixed the problem now but it was a bit tricky..
I now think the problem was an issue with x2 specific plugins-Wp Article Fetch & Tweet this.
On deactivating both of these from Network Admin (my site is running WP multisite) my blog (running WordPress & BuddyPress) is back to normal.
The Tweet this plugin is somewhat old & not updated so there could be some code issue with it. As for the WP Article fetch plugin I haven’t used it much so disabling it is no great issue!
(I will look for a new ‘Tweet this’ plugin as Twitter plugins are quite useful)
I still though need to get BuddyPress forums working properly on my site (I have posted several times for help with this on the support forum here but still BuddyPress forums are not running well on my site! If I wasn’t so stubborn to try & get BP forums working I would have deleted it ages ago & used an alternative eg Vanilla plugin or other-so if anyone can help me I would be grateful-but I don’t really expect any response as sadly I have had such limited response in the past from here to help me with this! I think BuddyPress is a misnomer; it could be better called somethingelse but I won’t type it now!..
…).
Ok. I fixed it.
I saw in the upgrade php file that you’re setting a cookie to keep track of the wizard steps. So I deleted that cookie, refreshed page, access BP menu link. The wizard started on step 4 – upgrade db, clicked save and next, then it showed finish and I clicked save and next.
Now site is working the way it used to work before the upgrade. I don’t remember clicking on ‘save and next’ after the db update. I think the checkmark was already marked and the finish checkmark was already there after wizard step 3.
deactived both
upgraded wp to 3.4
activated both
still stuck on step 4, still see same error message
still can’t access /forums
Now, I’m running 3.4, but all of the problems are just the same.
== @jamesewelch => WordPress version 3.3.2 ==
Deactivate BuddyPress and bbPress. Upgrade to WP 3.4 first. Then activate and upgrade BuddyPress and bbPress to latest versions.
No.
Odd. Is this multisite?
Just noticed it added ‘members’ to my site’s nav menu, and I specifically said not to use a members page. I have that turned off. So now the new upgrade added a ‘members’ link that goes to a blank page and removed my previously working forums.
I’m only using the default english. I have not made any changes or modifications to anything related to language.
Hi,
what languages are you using ?
what is the weigth of your translation buddypress-xx_XX.mo file ?
