BuddyPress.org

I had similar issues with a plugin I developed – all fixed now. Your best contacting plugin developers as there do seem to be a few significant changes to core in 1.6.

Blank pages are often due to a plugin/theme throwing an error. The plugin maybe using stuff that’s changed (especially if accessing data structures like the $bp object directly) and is simply throwing an error. Use WordPress in debug mode and check the log file.

If you are referring too the activity bubble on the Members Directory page, then do this:

add the following line of code to the `style.css` document in your themes directory:

`ul#members-list span.activity {
display:none !important;
}`

if you are referring too a different activity bubble, then let us know which one exactly.

You could create an empty text file called /wp-content/plugins/walled-garden.php, paste the following into it, then activate the plugin:
`
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Buddypress Walled Garden
Plugin URI: http://www.example.com/
Description: A brief description of the Plugin.
Version: 0.1
Author: http://www.example.com/
Author URI: http://www.example.com/
License: A “Slug” license name e.g. GPL2
*/

function sh_walled_garden()
{
global $bp;

// if( bp_is_register_page() || bp_is_activation_page() || bp_is_page( BP_FORUMS_SLUG ) || bp_is_page( BP_GROUPS_SLUG ) )

if( bp_is_register_page() || bp_is_activation_page() || bp_is_page( BP_FORUMS_SLUG ) )
return;

if( ! bp_is_blog_page() && ! is_user_logged_in() )

bp_core_redirect( bp_get_signup_page() );
}

add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘sh_walled_garden’ );

function bp_remove_feeds() {
remove_action( ‘bp_actions’, ‘bp_activity_action_sitewide_feed’, 3 );
remove_action( ‘bp_actions’, ‘bp_activity_action_personal_feed’, 3 );
remove_action( ‘bp_actions’, ‘bp_activity_action_friends_feed’, 3 );
remove_action( ‘bp_actions’, ‘bp_activity_action_my_groups_feed’, 3 );
remove_action( ‘bp_actions’, ‘bp_activity_action_mentions_feed’, 3 );
remove_action( ‘bp_actions’, ‘bp_activity_action_favorites_feed’, 3 );
remove_action( ‘groups_action_group_feed’, ‘groups_action_group_feed’, 3 );
}
add_action(‘init’, ‘bp_remove_feeds’);

?>`
Tested in bp 1.6.1

The plugin should not have spaces, blank lines, or anything else before “ and use a simple text editor ( like this ) rather than a wordprocessor….

To have a different menu for logged in users is slightly more complicated.

You need to find the template bit that shows the menu.

In the current bp-default theme header.php file is the following
`
false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘bp_dtheme_main_nav’ ) ); ?>
`
which can be replaced by
`
<?php
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ” ) );
} else {
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘secondary-menu’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ” ) );
}
?>
`
Then create the secondary menu in the wordpress menu admin…..

Please backup files and database before trying this out in case there are complications. It would be better to try out on a test/dev site first …..

I found that global.js was loading twice for me.
once at buddypress>_inc>global.js and once at theme>includes>js>global.js
I dont recall putting my global.js file in my theme but I can be flighty sometimes

It’s just an out-of-memory error. Check out https://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP

BTW, the 3 column theme can be found here, https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/bp-columns it produce the error mentioned below when clicking the member’s profile.

Fatal error: Cannot access empty property in …/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-template.php on line 823

@kooba Confirmed that based on the HTML structure of your theme, you will be only need to create two new files, header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to make the BP templates compatible with your theme.

If you’ve revised any of the BP template files transferred to your basic theme folder in server during the BP Compatibility process, please delete the 6 BP folders transferred to your basic theme folder in server – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /members, /groups, /register – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility again to make sure that you have clean template files.

Hi mastermind12, the advice for this does change depending on what theme you are using. What theme are you using?

It looks like some styles are missing. How are you styling the BP content? Are you pulling in bp-default’s stylesheet? Check to make sure that your version isn’t somehow mangled; it should be 2423 lines long https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.6.1/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css

What version of BuddyPress did you upgrade from?
Are you using the latest available version of the Custom Community theme?

ok, i found the solution in this post

hopefully it can help someone

@mairaj know that if user disables styles in browser, they will see the search form. But should you still want to proceed with your method, these two lines should do it via CSS

`/* Hide search form in ALL pages */
#search-form { display: none; }

/* Then show search form on this page only (change page ID to your installation’s page ID) */
body.page-id-25 #search-form { display: block; }`
You might have to add some width or float after display block depending on how you’ve styled the child theme.
