Hi @zabelator

Try adding this to “style.css” in your active theme

#buddypress .acomment-meta a, #buddypress .activity-header a, #buddypress .comment-meta a {
    text-decoration: none;
    pointer-events: none;
    cursor: default;
}

Hi @canadianmusicnetwork

Try adding this to “style.css” in your active theme

#buddypress #activity-stream p {
    color: #FFFFFF;
}

No. that php tag will need to be at the bottom of the content templates eg: index.php page.php if it’s not there. Depending on the theme you might have a few different templates. There is a hierarchy of which gets loaded first: https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-hierarchy/

So are you saying that with all the plugins except BP deactivated, running the a default (twentyxx) theme, you are still seeing the issue?

Have you attempted to deactivate all of your plugins as well to see if there is a culprit there? Usually Adminbar issues crop up if the <?php wp_footer(); ?> tag is missing. Usually this is a theme thing, but on occasion a poorly coded plugin can create a similar error. Given that the issue seems to be role-based, that might indicate it’s a plugin trying to do some funky things based on user-role.

Which theme are you using?

To change the background colour, you’d use the background-color CSS property:

#element {
    background-color: #000;
}

Where #element refers to the form element used in your HTML (the way to target this particular element is theme-dependent). Check out the Getting started with CSS MDN guide for more info on how to write CSS.

You should use your theme’s style.css document to add your own custom styles.

You can set the page users are taken to when they log in quite easily with a plugin such as Theme My Login.

BuddyPress uses a Template Hierarchy, just as WordPress does. If you have a copy of activate.php in your theme, BuddyPress will look for it and load that in place of the core template file. See the article for more info.

Yes you sure can use multisite + buddypress( network activated ) to achieve this.
But merging two existing sites under one multisite will need shuffling things here and there. And as you are saying both websites use multiple themes, things might get tricky 🙂

The problem might be related to the theme you’re using. Try activating the TwentyFifteen theme to see if you can upload.

Hi Rhonda

Which theme are you using?

I ran into the same or similar issue. From my debug logs it appears to be an issue when login with ajax is also an active plugin…these are the two errors that repeat endlessly until there’s a server timeout:

Simple fix is to deactivate login with ajax, then deactivate buddypress, then activate login with ajax.

This error might also present itself with other plugins/themes that have custom signup pages.

@wecreatehype Have you done any basic troubleshooting like deactivating other plugins except BuddyPress and changing to the WP default theme? Also, do provide more information about your installation so we won’t be chasing ghosts. https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/

This sounds doable theoretically. But i am sure there will be implications 🙂

abc.com – table prefix wpabc_
xyz.com – table prefix wpxyz_

Now in xyz.com, if you want to use buddypress tables of abc.com, go to active theme of xyz.com > functions.php and add the following code: ( untested )

add_filter( 'bp_core_get_table_prefix', 'bporg_244943_change_table_prefix', 99 );
function bporg_244943_change_table_prefix( $prefix ) {
    return 'wpabc_';
}

I’d vote for boss theme too. It looks awesome and is specifically built for buddypress network sites.
http://www.buddyboss.com/product/boss-theme/. You might want to check its live demo.

This could quite easily be theme functionality rather than something that is added to core.

Hey Julia, I use the Boss theme by Buddy Boss for my community. Just launched recently and it seems to be great.

500 is a very general error. Try the following:

• Clear your browser cache
• Delete cookies
• Remove all custom code from functions.php or bp-custom.php
• Activate the TwentyFifteen theme
• Disable all plugins
• Check your .htaccess file for errors

The problem may also result from a file or folder permissions error.

In truth, 500 errors are very hard to diagnose because they could result from almost anything.

I would like to display only one tab… simply remove the code used for comments.
Have you more than 3 posts (my per_page setting is 3 by “page”), so pagination can show up ? And have you tested with a Twenty theme. I tested succesfully the code on 2012 via bp-custom, not as plugin (if it makes a difference)…
