@lockamiz23 have you tried the troubleshooting basics like changing theme to bp-default and deactivating all plugins except BuddyPress?
I really need some help with this, does any one have a clue as to what might be happening. I’m using the BP columns theme, I thought that might be the problem, so i tried using the BP default theme 1.29 but it makes no difference, all the main menu heading still give page not found. I logged into my database everything appears to be in order there. What to do?
Deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress, keep on the bp-default theme and clear cache and cookies. How’s the BP Admin Bar now?
I have downgraded my buddypress Install to see if thats where the problem lies, however it still persists. I am not running Buddypress 1.2.8 however the reply doesnt work.
So i presume this has to do with the WordPress aspect.
Everything works fine in the default theme however.
You’ll need to upgrade your theme @gossyomega1
I am having same issues. I did not deactivate my plugins. I only switched to BuddyPress Default and everything works fine. So it is definitely an issue with the Themes not plugin conflict.
This started since the last upgrade
Perhaps. My theme (made compatible with BP using the Template Pack) broke with BP 1.2.9 and WP 3.2.
Change to bp-default theme and deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress. You might also want to check out and post at theme’s support forums http://themekraft.com/support/
Troubleshooting at this time. The more information you can give about your WP installation, the better – server. PHP version, etc. If you have any other plugins aside from BuddyPress activated, deactivate them and change to bp-default theme. If you still see the error, download a fresh copy of BP and re-upload to server via FTP/cpanel.
Update: I tried switching themes and the issue persists, so I gather that the problem lies within the dashboard files themselves, but I don’t know how they got edited since I’ve never touched my core installation (and even if I had, the core files get rewritten with each new WP update, right?)
@Paul No, I haven’t customized my dashboard theme. I’m actually using a child theme based off from the default that comes with Buddypress. The screenshot below shows what’s going on, except now I’m using WP 3.2:

@hnla I was able to reach my Network Admin dashboard by going to the dropdown menu as you mentioned, however I had to go “Inspect Element” in Safari and then remove “padding:0;” temporarily from the wp-admin-bar div.
bp-default theme is updated along with the plugin. Nested comments will be available in BP 1.3
Theme updates along with plugin. 1.3 theme has nested comment styles fixed.
does the theme update along with the plugin?
I’m runnin a few sites that use BuddyPress (with template pack) and a child of twentyten as the theme. When I attempt a WP 3.2 upgrade it says downloading zip but then just stops. It is only sites that are running BP that are affected this way. Has anyone else encountered this issue?
No, you don’t. There won’t be one. 
The issues everyone are having are not with BP. They are with plugins or themes that had the same issue BP did (outdated jQuery) or are issues with browser cache. I personally confirmed this on 5 user sites in the past 2 days, and BP has been woking perfectly.
I’ve not seen this on 1.2 before. Have you customised your dashboard theme at all?
Hmm… Even does it with no plugins and in the default theme.
I have one piece of custom JQuery which is an accordion menu. It’s not JQuery Tools or anything. it’s just standard JQuery and only 5 lines of code. Could it be a clash? Not quite sure how the stream works!

In my case (activity filter and reply not working, and some other profile issue), i fixed copying the ajax.php and global.js files from the bp-default theme into my custom theme in _inc/ and it’s done.
I’ve fixed the theme, just copy the ajax.php and global.js from the bp-default theme into your custom theme in _inc/ and it’s done. YAY
edit: it seems it’s partially fixed (i’ve just copy pasted without comparing, i will check better tomorrow:) )
I don’t know if you’ve resolved this on your own, but I think the problem is that if you are using the BP template pack, or another non-BP theme, Buddypress’s functions.php file is not loading, so those functions are not getting defined. I don’t know where the function is that loads BP’s functions.php but I just went and added an include in bp-custom.php to load it before any of the other scripts.
Like this:
$bp_functions_file = ABSPATH . ‘wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/functions.php’;
include $bp_functions_file;
There’s probably a better way but that was a quick fix I used to fix that error. I didn’t get any “cannot redeclare…” errors so I’m assuming the file is not loading anywhere else.
PS. I am using the freshnews theme by woothemes.

PS. adding “Template: bp-default” to my style.css didn’t work for me either.

That will actually be in the core files – plugins/buddypress/bp-core.php, buddypress/bp-groups/bp-groups-templatetags.php, and the same for forums. This is a great example of why you shouldn’t mess with core files (and why I’m a fool for doing so), but it’s probably not your problem at all. I think most people’s problems are stemming from other plugin’s or the theme loading another version of jquery. I’d check the source code from the offending pages and see if any other jquery libraries are being loaded.
I’m running a different theme to bp-default and platformpro and I am getting the same problems with primary/secondary menu drop-downs. What is the fix likely to be?
