You’re connected to BuddyPress support forum, where you can get some help. There is no other way for that.

Nobody here can debug your site at your place. If you’re unable to do that, you can use BP Job Board to hire somebody.

No One Seems to be able to assist me here.

🙄 You apparently use a premium theme (sixteen plus), which make things more difficult anyway, as we have no free access to it’s code. And you use a lot of plugins… And perhaps some custom function in your theme functions.php or bp-custom.php.

No idea what happens and i’m unable to reproduce what you describe.

See here if you can apply what is described by @r-a-y.

hi @5high,

users default email settings concern

• activity
• messages
• friends
• groups

Each has is own screen template.

ie. activity is in /bp-activity/bp-activity-screen.php

In each xxx-screen.php there is a function containing the variables and the html for the checkboxes.

Respective functions are:

• bp_activity_screen_notification_settings()
• messages_screen_notification_settings
• friends_screen_notification_settings()
• groups_screen_notification_settings()

You copy those 4 functions into your child-theme functions.php
and rename each to my_something.

ie. my_bp_activity_screen_notification_settings()

At the end of each function you’ll see the action hook, which you rename accordingly
ie.
add_action( 'bp_notification_settings', 'bp_activity_screen_notification_settings', 1 );
wil be changed to
add_action( 'bp_notification_settings', 'my_bp_activity_screen_notification_settings', 1 );

Before this line, you add the remove_action action. ie.

// removing the original action
remove_action( 'bp_notification_settings', 'bp_activity_screen_notification_settings', 1 );

// add our custom action
add_action( 'bp_notification_settings', 'my_bp_activity_screen_notification_settings', 1 );

Now we have to modify in each function the default Yes to No.

At the begin of each, you’ll see some conditionnals begining by if(someting….)

ie. activity-screen you have:

• $mention = 'yes';
• $reply = 'yes';

Simply change that to no, save, and you’re done.

Hope this helps ! 😉

hi @sjaakkuil,

is WordPress correctly installed and running ?
As you use a windows server, you may have some extra config operation. 5see godaddy’s doc for that)
Also it is not recommanded to use a preinstalled WP or BP (if exist). Prefer manual upload by FTP.

Once you’re sure WP is correctly setup and running, deactivate any third party elements first. Then activate 2015 theme and BP and setup BP pages if they aren’t created automatically.

Also, don’t forget to set your permalinks to something other than default.

https://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress

Installation

See your theme or 3th party plugin documentation, BP has no star button for favorites.

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/favorite-button-in-the-post/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-favorite-posts/

wordpress-4.2-beta3 – Multisite subfolder install,
Default Twentyfifteen theme
Buddypress 2.2.1
Latest version of this plugin
Network Activated this plugin

A buddypress member can see the Events tab in profile and can fill up the Events form, but on submission the Event is not saved – empty form is returned. Thus the members cannot use Events at all.

I have assigned all Roles the permission to create Event. See this http://s18.postimg.org/5wmavsiop/event.png
The site super admin can create Event but NO map is seen.

If you have any Multisite subfolder demo with latest WP 4.2beta3 can you kindly set up a demo link?
Thank you.

Try adding it to your functions.php file in your theme or child theme, if that doesn’t work or still not 100% sure check with the themes support who’ll be best placed to advise.

@mentions doesn’t work (actually) in bbPress.

To add it, so you can mention a user in a topic, add this snippet to bp-custom.php or child-theme’s functions.php

function custom_bbpress_maybe_load_mentions_scripts( $retval = false ) {
	if ( function_exists( 'bbpress' ) && is_bbpress() ) {
		$retval = true;
	}
 
	return $retval;
}
add_filter( 'bp_activity_maybe_load_mentions_scripts', 'custom_bbpress_maybe_load_mentions_scripts' );

Group page doesn’t exist. (page not found: http://www.earndailypay.com/groups/) Have you activated a page for groups ? (see BP settings > pages)
If you have several old group pagesin trash, you have to empty it, so that WP will find only ONE page when you call a the group page.

Resave also permalinks. Sometimes things go better after.

You use also some exotic plugins which may create conflicts. So you will have to deactivate anything except BP to test it, and by using 2015 or 2013 theme to get a basic working install.

Once done and correctly showing you reactivate plugins one by one, until you stumble again on the issue.

This is the path to all BP templates /bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/ and it would better that it stays untouched.

You can update manually from Trac or download the latest BP from plugin repo.

Your custom theme should be in WP’s theme folder and containing a /buddypress/ folder with all files you have modified. In brief, a copy from what you find in bp-legacy. You use only the files you want to modify, not the whole bp-legacy content.

That way, you can update BP without loosing anything and adapt, or not, your own templates.

See template hierarchy, if it’s unclear.

BuddyPress doesn’t handle post comments.
As you’re certainly using a premium theme (your picture is stored by that theme support), they have to tell you how you can deactivate those comments on BP pages.
You paid a licence with included support. And we have no free access to the theme, so it’s quite impossible to tell you exactly what to do.

If they don’t give you support, change your theme or find by yourself. Sorry for that.

Technically, you have to create a child-theme first. Add a copy of the original page.php of your theme and remove the part related to comments.

Which part precisely, or even a specifif function of your theme is impossible to say, as we have no information. And you didn’t tell which theme you’re using.

Search for similar question on the forum, you’ll probably find some.

Did you find the problem?

I have the same problem except that it is on all buddypress pages. That comments are enabled or not.
Example photo.

This comes from an incompatibility with my theme Foodrecipes.

It can be necessary to remove the buddypress code comments?

I am looking for … Let me know!

Thank you!

FYI, to stay independant of any theme, custom code lives better in /plugins/bp-custom.php

OK, I fixed, a bit embarrassing, but I created a buddypress.php in my theme folder to add custom code, which was working. But then we decided we do not need that anymore and therefore removed the custom code, but I kept in file just in case. But this was causing in the end the blank. When I removed this file I could access everything again.

I would rather use it from within bp-custom.php, so you stay independant of the theme and can change theme without loosing these 2 functions.

Don’t know What is line 330 ? What are you doing at line 330 ?
What should i hide ?
If i have other snippets ? Huh… 🙄 why this question ?

Add this snippet to your child-theme functions.php or bp-custom.php

Nedds also a template overload of
/your-theme/content.php
as you should add an action or the function call near the (blog) post.

function bpfr_pm_to_author() {	

	$author = get_the_author();

	echo '<a href="'.wp_nonce_url( bp_loggedin_user_domain() . bp_get_messages_slug() . '/compose/?r=' . get_the_author() ) .' title="Private Message"">Private Message</a>';
} 

The light goes on when you click on ↑↑↑ Documentation ↑↑↑
The sun comes up when you enter activity loop in the search box
and you get

Activity Loop

BP use only dynamic pages and some templates, depending of the context and shows them on the appropriate page (here: activity)

BP templates are all in wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/
Fr your question, see
/activity/single/
/activity/

And about theme

BuddyPress Theme Development

This field is fully part of WP registration process. And WP doesn’t use “email confirmation”.
But you can try Theme My Login if you absolutely want such feature.

Create a template overload of this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\member-header.php

Then in that file put one of these snippets wherever you like:

-show all roles for a user

$user = new WP_User( bp_displayed_user_id() );

if ( !empty( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) ) {
	foreach ( $user->roles as $role )
		echo $role;
}

– show just the first role

$user = new WP_User( bp_displayed_user_id() );
echo $user->roles[0];

Maybe you have a such setting in your theme ?
Or a function to search in /your-theme/functions.php

It’s a common task you can achieve from a child-theme/style.css

https://codex.wordpress.org/CSS

I asked a question in the support of his subjects.

What question on which support ? To have an idea, we need some details !
Theme name ?
Used plugins ?

@andrew55 That “Wall” sounds more like a custom theme issue. Have you contacted the theme author?
