BuddyPress.org

No matter the theme or the marketplace, first thing to take in mind is how to respect the standart.

Getting started

One crucial question to all: which theme do you use ?
Have you similar issue by using one of WP’s twenty theme ?
Have you searched in your theme documentation ? Remeber that we do not support commercial products here as we have no access to the code.

Also:
The Toolbar is related to WordPress, BuddyPress use it only to add a sub-nav block under Howdy on the top right corner.

Here a complete WP tutorial, in case of. (read also the comments)

There may well be a solution for this in the WordPress or BuddyPress community, but what I’m saying is it’s far more likely that you’ll find the solution in a phpMyAdmin or MySQL community. So don’t give up here, but be aware you have options if you don’t get a response.

Hi @marvc

Whilst I can’t offer any help myself in this instance, the actual table you’re importing is irrelevant so both the WordPress and BuddyPress support forums might not be the best place to look to get help. Instead, perhaps try a phpMyAdmin or MySQL support forum. Hopefully they’ll be more help.

I have also noticed, even on this website if I shrink my browser to below the width of maybe 400-500px the menu doesn’t show the WordPress logo. Shouldn’t this happen at a much smaller width as to allow it to show on most smartphones?

You’d just submit it as you would a normal WordPress theme, but specify that it provides support for BuddyPress. See some examples:

Hi @minglonaire

Features can be requested on Trac. Try searching existing tickets first to make sure the request isn’t already open.

That’s indeed what comes to mind with the newly introduced member types.

I just came across that old plugin that used to provide a solution for having different profile types: https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-xprofiles-acl/

One may need to look into it to see how it could possibly give a headstart.

Probably a javascript conflict. Check your browser console.

In general, it’s best to use wp_editor instead of ckeditor.

a:3:{i:0;s:7:”English”;i:1;s:4:”Math”;i:2;s:10:”Substitute”;}
is a serialized array.

BuddyPress will unserialize profile data via
xprofile_get_field_data( $field, $user_id = 0, $multi_format = 'array' )
and return an array.

But if you want to do this in the context of a search query, you probably want to use wildcards in the mysql statement, for example: %math%.
This can be tricky to implement if you haven’t done it before.

There is already a good plugin that does member searches based on profile field values:

Hi @albydigei

This functionality is currently in development. See this ticket for progress:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6057

I’m unable to tell what happens. I tried to register, received the mail, clicked on activation link and error message.
Tried to login, and didn’t found the wp-login page.

Some url’s are weird or wrong… and i suspect you haven’t correctly setup BuddyPress.

Deactivate all plugins but BP
Deactivate kleo theme and activate 2012 or 2014.

Go to BP settings and check all pages. You need a page for each component. This page must only have a title and should be absolutely blank, without any template or page model assigned.

Go to permalinks and select an option. Whatever except default. Save.

Via FTP, delete wp-config.php and htaccess. This will not affect the DB content
Run WP install again (yoursite.com/install). The goal is to generate a brand new htaccess and wp-config file.
When you’re asked for, use salt key generator and copy/paste the result to wp-config

If all went correctly, you have a fresh install.

Return to BP settings and check that anything is still in place. Register and activation page maybe completed or not assigned. In this case, assign a page to each.

Return to permalinks and simply save the page.

Now you can test registering again. If it is ok, you activate kleo and re-test registering.

Subsidiary question: have you installed WP manually or did you used a hosted automated package ?

Check also kleo’s support about BP configuration.

Annoying issue, was initially reported for BP 1.7

Hey @hmglv

Diagnosing that problem is going to be rather difficult on the little info we have to go on. My advice is to search the WordPress code base to see if anything shows up for the exact error string you’re seeing. Then try to trace back to see what may be causing the error.
