    Thanks for the quick response.

    I have a default install.

    My site is http://kingstonnexus.ca

    Wordpress is installed in the root directory (httpdocs on my server) (v 4.1.1)
    Buddypress is installed in wp-content/plugins/buddypress (v 2.2.1)

    Happy to provide more information I’m just not sure what you need.

    PHP 5.4, I think it’s Apache but I will have to find out.

    Can you detail your installation please ?

    Where is WordPress installed ?
    Where is BuddyPress installed ?

    Quick follow-up since I’m still struggling with this problem with registration, but done some more testing in the meantime.
    I’ve installed clean WP with BuddyPress (same versions as above) on my other machine – LAMP server this time (php 5.5.9 & apache 2.4.7 running on Ubuntu 14.04). This time registration process is working properly! However on Windows machine still nothing…
    Can this problem be somehow connected with the non-default port (8080) used on Windows machine? Or maybe BuddyPress requires some specific php modules enabled I’m not aware of? As I mentioned all other pages of my WordPress install are working properly on WAMP server and that’s not the first WordPress install I’m doing on that server and never had any WordPress problems before.
    Anybody has any ideas how to fix this registration issue? Or how to test it additionally to figure out what’s going wrong here?

    @hnla Sorry, my apologies. Please also read “But then, things may change also – who can say –”
    I think @mariatrier can get helped by your positive suggestions on her actual problem 🙂 Thanks.

    There’s private messages built in, but this is rather old school. You can’t leave the conversation as you can on FB, you can’t upload files to the conversation etc. I am after something like Facebook chat/messaging system.

    Personally I would like PM and chat to be separate. But then, things may change also – who can say – please submit issues with lots of real world example at https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/report

    Some chat solutions worth looking may be https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=buddypress+chat

    Changing these titles isn’t the easiest thing, but BuddyPress does provide 2 ways you can do it. However, hacking core files like bp-activity-loader.php is definitely not one of them. [Never hack core files — have a Google if it’s not obvious to you why you shouldn’t]

    Ok the 2 solutions are:

    1. Use a language / translation file
    2. Use the template hierarchy

    The string “Site-Wide Activity” is translatable — all the strings are. You can implement a language file that translates ‘Site-Wide Activity’ into whatever string you’d like. Have a search for translating BuddyPress strings / POT files / poedit. There’s also a documentation (they call it the Codex) page on it: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/customizing/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

    The second solution is to use the template hierarchy. If you don’t provide a specific template for your activity directory, BuddyPress will use the page.php file from your theme and ‘inject’ the title “Site-Wide Activity” where page.php makes a call to the_title().

    You can override this by implementing your own template — create a file called index-directory.php inside /buddypress/activity in your site’s theme. Copy the basics of page.php into that file, and replace the_title() with your hardcoded title for the page.

    You can read more about the template hierarchy here: https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/template-hierarchy/

    Neither solution is simple, you’ll either have to get your head around using poedit, or need some basic PHP coding skills and an understanding of the principles of templates and themes in WordPress. In the future, it would be nice to see a settings panel in wp-admin to configure these basic strings.

    [p.s. if you don’t want to use poedit, you could take a look at plugin solutions for string translation, e.g. codestyling localisation]

    Ok managed to do it, it’s a dirty way but it works…

    1) Compile all of the above scripts into a single file “mynewjsfile.js” then minify it to keep it even more compact if you want (forget the buddypress.js thing as what I’ve done stops the script from looking for it completely).

    2) Upload mynewjsfile.js wherever you want to put it (for the sake of this I’ve put it into my theme root /js/mynewjsfile.js

    3) Make a copy of buddypress-functions.php (inside bp-legacy/)

    4) In your new buddypress-functions.php around line 89 comment out the following :

    add_action( 'bp_enqueue_scripts', array( $this, 'enqueue_scripts' ) );

    Like this :

    /* add_action( 'bp_enqueue_scripts', array( $this, 'enqueue_scripts' ) ); */

    5) Create a new folder called “buddypress” in your theme’s root and upload buddypress-functions.php into it. Now buddypress will use this file instead of the original.

    6) In your wordpress functions.php add the following :

    function mynewjsfile() {
    	wp_enqueue_script( 'mynewjsfile', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/mynewjsfile.js', 'jquery', false );
    }
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'mynewjsfile' );

    The ‘jquery’ is there because our new script requires it to function properly. This ensures that Jquery loads before it. False is telling wordpress to load it in the header.

    7) Enjoy your new single minified JS file 😉

    If anyone knows of a BuddyPress plugin that requires setting role capabilities

    Buddypress itself does not require setting role capabilities – so a Buddypress plugin usually should not need this. Most of the commonly used buddypress plugins like photo/album (rtmedia), location plugins, imath’s Rendzevous ( sort of an Event plugin with a difference) do NOT require setting role capabilities and works well in the above scenario.

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/multisite-user-management/

    I actually tried this extensively even before I saw this post – its purpose is something different. It will not add users to the main site.

    If anyone knows of a BuddyPress plugin that requires setting role capabilities and works without members belonging to the main site

    Event Manager does this. It requires setting role capabilities and yet no one has to manually set the members belonging to the main site. It has a very wide range of configuration options that makes it rather “heavy” – still I could have used it but it has no Attendee options. It lacks “Attending : Yes | NO | Maybe ” and an Attendee list that others can see. Apart from this, from frontend it offers same functions and users can add Events from the profile too with Location Map etc.

    A huge amount of thanks and gratitude to @shanebp, who is actually doing tremendous amount of help and work for the buddypress events plugin. Kudos!

    Adding members automatically to sites in a multisite installation can be quite complicated.
    This is the solution recommended by many people.
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/multisite-user-management/

    If a plugin requires you to add / remove role capabilites specific to that plugin, then each member must at least belong to the main site.
    Otherwise current_user_can() will return false because the member does not belong to the main site.

    If a member belongs to the main site, but none of the sub-sites, then the only issue is that while viewing a subsite custom tab(s) may not appear in the BP dropdown in the upper right corner. But the tab(s) will appear on the actual profile page.

    If anyone knows of a BuddyPress plugin that requires setting role capabilities and works without members belonging to the main site, please post a link here.

    What I mean is this: Right now, it seems users can only send “standard” messages through the wordpress/buddypress messages system, or chat through for example arrow chat or Cometchat.

    To be able to view all messages (chat messages and “standard” messages between users) in the same place (like in FB or any other modern platform) would be a good improvement. Or perhaps simply throw out the regular messaging system and be able to add the chat to the profile?

    Thanks bro, had a look at that plug in but it hasn’t been updated since 2013 and isn’t compatible with my version of WordPress.

    Sounds like a great plug-in though, if it works (haha).

    Hope you get it fixed.

    Still gonna try to do with without a plug-in though as i’ve done all the legwork manually already, just need to stop buddypress from enqueuing the original files (or at very least dequeue them in my functions.php). Just can’t find the functions in BP that are loading them originally.

    It can be a real pain when combining js scripts so i feel you, i have not yet tried to combine the js files used within buddypress, although i have done this many times with other js files with mixed results, its a case of trial and error manually combining js files, i will probably be trying to do all this myself within my latest buddypress install when the time comes, i would recommend trying a plugin called minqueue to help you combine files as i have used this myself on previous built sites with great results but i have found an issue recently that i posted in the support forum for the plugin which you can read here https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-at-first-then-logging-out-and-back-in-stops-it-working?replies=1

    maybe you could try it and see if it works for you without the problems i described then i know it wasn’t just my install and config causing it.

    The beauty of this plugin is that it lets you see exactly what scripts are loaded on a per page basis via the front end of your site and if you hover over the said scripts it will let you also know the dependencies of each script, then you can add different scripts to be combined in a queue on the backend, the dev has not responded to my support yet there so im still unsure if its my install that is causing the problem, try it and follow the steps i raised in the support and see if it does the same for you.

    I have posted in the new favorites plugin support asking if the dev could possibly consider adding native support for buddypress here, i suggest others add to it and the dev may respond positively and look into it, who knows… maybe worth a shot https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buddypress-92?replies=1#post-6781081

    Just to let you know there is a new plugin (since 2015-3-29) which comes with an API who let you handle any post type. See Favorites.
    Maybe you can built something with it.

    There is: let the user add his location himself !
    Imagine you ask them their prefered dishes ? Would you give them a pre-buid list of dishes ? Probably not…

    For countries, you have already the list built-in WordPress. Question is, are you cibling the world or only UK and his over 1050 towns&villages ?

    Here is my issue once again

    I am using wordpress 4.1.1 and buddypress Version 2.2.1

    When I try to create a new Group it allows me to Put in the name of the Group, and when I hit next, it shows in the browser like it goes to the settings page, but it does not bring up any of the settings.

    Whem I click next nothing comes up. I can type in the browser this link ../groups/create/step/group-avatar/
    and it will act like it’s on the Avator page, but nothing on the page like the settings page.

    When I maually type in the browser groups/create/step/group-invite/ it acts as it going to the invite page but again nothing comes up. When I click Finish it goes back to the Details Page.

    When I type in the Group Name in the Browser it appears there, but it will not all me to create any new ones. That group still shows like it needs to be finished, although it appears in my groups.

    I have tried to, switch to twenty fourteen and still getting the same error so I tried to uninstall buddypress, deleting it and reinstalled it, and I am still getting that error. My Tested one of my other WP Sites the same version of BP & WP and it creates new groups just fine amy suggestions.

    hi @sjaakkuil,

    is WordPress correctly installed and running ?
    As you use a windows server, you may have some extra config operation. 5see godaddy’s doc for that)
    Also it is not recommanded to use a preinstalled WP or BP (if exist). Prefer manual upload by FTP.

    Once you’re sure WP is correctly setup and running, deactivate any third party elements first. Then activate 2015 theme and BP and setup BP pages if they aren’t created automatically.

    Also, don’t forget to set your permalinks to something other than default.

    MyCred is very well documented. See their support.

    How it works:
    add_action ( 'hook_name', 'your_function_name', [priority], [accepted_args] );

    you’ll find the hook_name in the plugin file.

    BP use action hooks like WordPress.

    See your theme or 3th party plugin documentation, BP has no star button for favorites.

    Thank you for the report.

    What happens if you activate it per site instead of networked ?

    Did you note that is

    Compatible up to: WP 4.1.1 / BP 2.2.1

    ?
    So wordpress-4.2-beta3 is out of range.

    Please continue this discussion on the support forum for this free plugin.
