BuddyPress.org

Thats bizarre ill have another look after breakfast… Its just the default theme with some colours changed yes?

Same problem here. Groups installed. Forum for groups installed and activated when i create a new group. But when I try to make a new theme is answering that the forum is not configured.

I get this error too, but have not edited the themes. I am now unable to view any pages including admin. How can I resolve this?

@oddzuki it might just be an issue with your custom theme. Change to bp-default theme.

How weird, I’ll test, sounds like a bug. Can you give more info on your install. What plugins and theme and versions of wp & bp

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/unconfirmed/ – use this to view and activate unactivated accounts.

I have not encountered that activation issue before. To troubleshoot, I would:
– Deactivate all plugins including BuddyPress and change to Twenty Eleven theme. Check registration on regular WordPress install. If activation doesn’t work, resolve this first in WP forums and with webhost. If registration/activation works proceed to next step.
– Activate BuddyPress plugin only and change to bp-default theme. Check registration/activation here. If it doesn;t work, file ticket at https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket (log in with same username and password). It activation works, proceed to activate your theme and other plugins then test again.

Looks like you fixed it, adminbar is performing as expected in FF, IE, and Chrome.

I do see some style changes you may want to make starting with width of adminbar which is wider than the menu and you might want to add the following to your style.css file:
`#wp-admin-bar .padder { width: 940px !important; }`

yeah, I’m thinking of this theme too (or a complete custom design). I’d like users to note their location in the profile & then be presented with relevant information (posts)…

Also thinking of this: http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/classifieds & getting someone to modify it for me (I’m not a developer!). These guys also have a “directory” plugin however it is not “buddypress compatible” but a few people have requested it (might be worth your while inquiring too!)

That sounds like a WordPress Multisite (sub-domain setup) with Buddypress running as front-end. The Buddypress main domain would be where you host your General content, then host the more specific content on the subdomain blogs. @Bowromir over at http://bp-tricks.com/ has always been a proponent of the subdomain blog having a similar look to the main blog, and as such has created a Multisite WordPress default theme: http://bp-tricks.com/featured/new-theme-bp-default-member-blog-multisite-communties/

You could then use a functionality like http://wpebooks.com/replicator/ to create the basic layout of one specific site you need (with the look and feel you want), then replicate that site multiple times, adding the specifics for each city.

== Any idea how to fix it? ==
Which theme were you using? Have you tried to contact theme author?

== i have incerted the code to get the buddypress to display properly with my theme weaver 2 ==
Are you referring to this weaver theme http://wpweaver.info/themes/weaver/?
And if by “inserting code” you meant you installed BP Template Pack plugin and went through the BP compatibility process, did you use the second method for making the theme BP-compatible? like this https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/#compatibility

== the members show up fine but when i add pluging to buddy press to give more features to buddypress 1. Links 2 Albums the pages when these are clicked in the member bar puts the sidebar below the content cant seem to find where to fix this ==
If you use the second method (header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress,etc) for BP compatibility process per link I posted above, then you won’t have to make further change to templates provided by Links/Albums plugins

Change to bp-default theme and see if same behavior applies.

Check how it’s done properly in bp- default https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.1/bp-themes/bp-default/header.php#L6 and in twentyten theme https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.2.1/wp-content/themes/twentyten/header.php#L21

You’re using a custom theme. Take a look at https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/1-5-developer-and-designer-information/#theme

It’s possible that the Custom Community theme is written in such a way that the JavaScript from bp-default will not work properly. If I get a chance sometime this week I may take a look myself, but I urge you in the meantime to contact the theme’s author. By changing some CSS selectors, the author may have broken this particular function.

I followed thoose isntructions and what happened to me was that I can not see the forums at all now. The group forums part have been closed down since day one in the BuddyPressside on the components page. The site wide forums have been isntalled through bbpress. I am using forums as slug. I had a forums page and it letted me to see the forums structures ( not the whole one though with 3 layers of subforums but I think it had to do with theme side problems that should now be fixed with the new update we just got for Salutation theme few hours ago ( still waiting for my admin to uppdate to newest theme update) ). But when I deleted the Forums page and took it away from the Trash as well the forums disapeared totally. Yess I went to Permalinks and saved there even though Permalinks page did not need to be changed or anything, but still did it for the sake of it. Did not help. I can not see the forums at all now.
