@el_terko just added a version to work with WP3 and with BP 1.2.5.2 page templates.
http://bp-theme-converts.com/buddypress-with-malleable/
Also, just tried to disable all plugins to see if there was a conflict, but even with all plugins (except BP) deactivated, I can not make a forum post.
hnla:
From what I can see on the backend, it’s set up.
See screenshot: http://i28.tinypic.com/2nsnij4.jpg
It says: “bbPress forum integration in BuddyPress has been set up correctly. If you are having problems you can re-install
NOTE: The forums directory will only work if your bbPress tables are in the same database as your WordPress tables. If you are not using an existing bbPress install you can ignore this message.”
Any ideas? It’s really a weird thing!
Nope. Although, it’s often good to consult the WordPress codex as well since all of those functions can be used also.
I’ve also learned to love this piece of code to output what’s being stored in various vars (just replace $bp with the var you want to see):
echo ”
";
var_dump($bp);
echo "
“;
die;
(the echo should be the pre html code since this won’t display code right)
Otherwise, I look at plugins that do similar things to what I want to do to find new code or ask in the forums and sometimes people will answer with the code.
Don’t they have support forums or contact form there where you could ask theme devs or community members who are using the theme whether any have made it work with BuddyPress or if the theme required some tweaks to make it work? I remember the time when users of Hybrid theme framework made it work with BuddyPress via communication in BP and Hybrid theme forums.
same with me here. I do clean install of WordPress 3.0. Activated Buddypress in the plugins. Updated permalinks to use with simple urls. Apply some tricks that can be seen at http://ikailo.com/94/url-modrewrite-workaround-iis-60/ to url since I’m in windows server. Don’t have mod_rewrite. Tried signup, but it just redirects to the same page. site is boholtech.com
I don’t expect to get an answer to this – but I will ask anyway!
I have a WordPress 3.0. + BuddyPress 1.2.5, and sometimes the entire page loops. It takes perhaps a minute to load, and instead of the usual 30-70 SQL queries, there can be up to 1500+ queries. Plus, if I am stepping through the code, I see that WordPress can be called multiple times, because I have a break set on the first line of WordPress index.php, which is define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’, true);
Unfortunately, it doesn’t do it each time in the same place, sometimes the page loads slowly first time, then quickly a second time, other times it loads correctly, with only one call to index.php
I am a bit stuck as to where to look in the code to see what is happening, because it is so random.
Any thoughts, anyone?
Did you just make the necessary manual adjustments in addition to the automatic upgrade stuff. Read these 2 guides, but especially the 1st. Did you do all of those things (including editing the .htaccess file)?

Will start following U on twitter.
@el_terko sorry only spotted this reply now.
Yes, I’ll be updating the Malleable theme in the next few days, will post when done.
I am using WordPress 3.0 and the latest BuddyPress version. When I view the blog directory, I can’t see all of my site’s blogs. The directory page says there are only 39 blogs, when I have well over 150 blogs. Why can’t I see them all?
Hello guys i have already asked this question and related queries but have not got any problem solving answer. now i want to go step by step explain what i have done and what am expecting ..but its not happening.
I have created a community at with wordpress 3.0 and have installed buddypress 1.2.5.2
Now my problem is i have a single account of admin. I have put “Anyone can register ” on. So i have got Register page in my site.
Now when i create a new user from community account gets created as i see that under user section in my dashboard but i can not login with that user on community …whats wrong here please tell me
Please tell me if you know where i have mistaken …
Hello all,
I am currently using the flexibility theme (2) with WordPress 3.0. I recently installed the BP template manager and buddypress. I wanted buddypress functionality, but with my flexibility theme. When I try to view my own profile, my homepage for the blog loads and not my profile. There are also other features on my website that may be preventing this but I am not sure.
my url is: http://e-turnall.com
Thoughts on this anyone?
Eric
No problems here. PollDaddy works fine with BuddyPress just as it does with regular WordPress blogs based on my own experience.
Install it through the plugin manager, activate and add short-code to widget/post.
What Modemlooper said. It works just as it would with a regular WordPress blog without interacting with BuddyPress in terms of the poll results and functionality.
I’m currently looking for something to handle polls myself. For PollDaddy I simply installed it as a regular plugin, pasted the short-code into a sidebar widget and it works as expected. What it does isn’t changed by BuddPress in any way from what I can tell.
As for Intense Debate, it wouldn’t let me register with my WordPress account so not sure 
Have you definitely gone to the ‘Forums Setup’ link and activated/installed bbpress integration, not so much the component setup link/page.
Hey guys,
I’ve been looking at trying to resolve a message composition error (basically, I get “There was an error sending that message, please try again” even though all fields are set correctly – would recommend making errors more descriptive). So I decided to turn on WP_DEBUG to see what the specific issue was…
Am I right in thinking that all of those notices/depreciation messages will be resolved as Buddypress goes in to 1.3? Is it worth me going through and tackling each one?
I’m still stuck with my original problem though… why can’t I send any messages? Note that I’m on a localhost machine… does that play a part?
I am having this exact same problem on a brand new WP/BP site.

Just doing more testing and i am trying to create a group to test and when I do I am able to create group name and description, then I am brought to Avatar upload phase and it fails.
This is the screen 1:
http://i25.tinypic.com/1zogs3k.jpg
This is screen 2:
http://i25.tinypic.com/24lszsj.jpg
It’s a WordPress failure notice that says:
Are you sure you want to do this?
Please try again.
Even if I try again, it comes back to the page:
http://natfriends.com/groups/create/step/group-avatar/
But I can never complete the action.
Should some directory be CHMODed or is this something else that is causing this problem with creation of groups?
Thanks!
Hi hnla,
I am using WP3.0 (a fresh install). I will follow the guide to get multisites via the link you left… really I just want everyone to have a blog if that’s possible and get all the recent entries to show on the home page.
As for the forums… yes I have enabled them in the backend, see screenshot here >> http://i29.tinypic.com/vzebsx.png
I’m wondering if you might have time to register and test this? It’s odd.. the post just disappears into the ether. The site is at http://www.natfriends.com
The profile on the default theme is fine! It’s the other theme I had that made things completely nonsensical (it’s not a BP theme, just a regular theme with a plugin to give BP function… but it’s not good!). It just was terrible. Couldn’t make any sense of anything in user profiles.
I’ve switched to the default theme. It’s not as ‘pretty’ as my other theme that I had, but it sure makes a lot more sense. I am not yet at the stage of themeing.. this is my first run at using BuddyPress… so I’m learning all of it on the fly (like most people who come here I guess).
If I could just get the forum posts to work, I’d be set….
Thanks so much for the help!
If you’re using /installed WP 3.0 that now combines single site and mutli site (blogs) in the one package however you do have to perform some manual file adjustments to enable multisite functionality in the backend from where you then follow the instructions to complete installation.
You can follow this guide to setting up multi sites:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network
As for BP forums have you enabled them in the backend? if you look in the dashboard at the BP section menu links you will see a link to ‘Forums Setup’.
Profiles is perhaps more a question of personal taste? I personally wouldn’t say that the profile of the default theme is particularly unintuitive, but that isn’t to say there isn’t room for improvement; obviously one can re-configure it somewhat if one uses a child theme and copies the files over to work on; also thre are a few newish plugins to add things like ‘User Stats’ and or ‘Follwers/Follwing’
Hi!
Just spending a lot of time trying to get my BP powered site up and fitted with the functionality I need.
I have been going through the plugins and some screenshots of the admin I see are quite different to my installation. I was wondering, do I need to start from scratch and install WPMU to get blogs for all my members? I
I really love the way that the user profiles look here at the BP.org site. Things make sense… in my current site I’m rather confused. Not sure if this is because of the template I am using? I can’t get the bbPress forums to work at all. I am struggling a bit. Granted this is my first go at using BP, so I am thirsty to learn all I can.
So my questions are:
1.) How do I get blogs for all my members?
2.) How can I get a forum similar to the one here at BuddyPress.org
3.) How can I get more intuitive user profile pages?
Thanks!
There appears to be a missing edit_post_link() call in the post template (/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/single.php).
Thanks for the heads up! Creating a bug report for this.
