BuddyPress.org

In my WordPress Dashboard, I get a message that says:

BuddyPress is almost ready. You must update your permalink structure to something other than the default for it to work.

But if I change the permalink structure to something other than the default, when I visit the pages that I have, I get a 404 not found error. How can I fix this problem?. I am running WordPress in my own server.

I also uploaded an image of my root directory

Hi all,

I’m new here. a big hello to the community!!

I’m tring to hacking an external WP plugin in order to works with buddypress.
The Plugin is WP Mobile Menu

My idea is to add some buttons in the header to this plugin, in order to make easy for the user open some useful page, like Activity, Profile an so on.

Actually Is working just fine, with this code:

$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
// Profile
$output .= '<div id="toolbar-profile" onclick="location.reload();location.href=\'http://example.org/members/';
$output .= $current_user->user_login;
$output .=   '\'"></div>';

…but…but… if the username contain a dot character, buddypress transform the dot in ‘-‘ so pressing the button above, the user obtain a 404 page… and some users of mine, are using a email address as username.

So I’m trying to modify my code so, but it doesn’t work at all.

global $bp;
$userlink = get_bp_loggedinuser_link();
// Profile
$output .= '<div id="toolbar-profile" onclick="location.reload();location.href=\'http://example.org/members/';
$output .= $userlink->user_login;
$output .=   '\'"></div>';

Someone know ho to import the bp_loggedinuser_link() variable in a external WP plugin?
(it’s not a 3th part buddypress plugin)

I’m going to design & develop a theme for BuddyPress to help pay the bills around here.

The theme will be made open-source until I have an audience then I may put a price on the theme to maintain it and help pay my bills.

This is my research before embarking on the project. I’d really appreciate the help.

Should I make a light or dark theme?

What components are most important, I will build in this order and release for testing once each component is functional. Please order accordingly.

1. Activity Stream
2. Member Profiles
3. Member Directory
4. Group Pages
5. Group Directory
6. Network
7. BBPress Forums

Are you interested in being a beta tester? You will get access to the theme files to use in your own projects in return.

What customisations would you like built in? Things like custom logos, and colours? That type of thing.

How many custom navs are required?

Do you want full WordPress support for posts and pages? Things like post format, post thumnbails and HTML5 when and where possible.

What about templates, would you like an optional custom front-page?

Anything else you feel like discussing please do so.

After the theme gets off the ground I may decide to release it as a premium theme to help pay the bills, but for now I’m looking for an audience to get started with.

Lastly, I was going to blog about the progress in my site buddycore.com to keep anyone who is interested up to date.

Thanks for your help.

Wordpress version – 4.5.3 running suffusion theme
Buddypress version – 2.6.1.1
Web address http://www.theeuphonium.com

On the groups page the ‘groups’ button does not allow the creation of groups, even when logged in as admin. The only way I can create a group as an admin is to go to the dashboard and do this from there. I would like users to be able to create their own groups. Even when logged in as a contributor who has that role allowed, this is not possible as the add group function does not appear in their dashboard, and the add group button does not work on the groups page. Also on both the groups and member pages the search bar is cut off at the top so is not useable.
Thanks

When I enable allow customizable avatar for groups it messes up any line in the activity feed of when a ser joins a group.

It displays like this

Robin Wright joined the group Volunteer Pack</Group logo of Volunteer Packa> 6 days, 13 hours ago.

In the place above where the “logo of volunteer pack” is, it actually shows the group avatar not the words. I installed wordpress from a folder to install a Multisite network. Using a wildcard to create other subdomains. Please help, I am new to wordpress and it’s driving me insane

Hi,

I am new to wordpress and launced a buddypress site recently.

I want to customize the registration confirmation text and the text on the top of registration page “Registering for this site is easy. Just fill in the fields below, and we’ll get a new account set up for you in no time.”.

I changed and saved both text in the register.php file but no effect. Register page still shows the old Text. I tried deactivating BuddyPress and re-activating again. even that did not help.

I am using BuddyPress 2.5.3 with BuddyBoss theme version 2.1.3

Appreciate your help to solve this. Thanks in Advance.

I work for a UK organisation and we are building a new computer games marketplace for a our retail devision and they predict large volumes of traffic from the offset. We have a dedicated server ready for hosting and we are planning to use your BuddyPress plugin along with WooCommerce. On speaking with an external PHP developer we use today he noted that on heavy traffic sites WordPress and plugins will struggle with a bottle neck being caused. Whats the maximum visitors you can have on a site using your plugin and wordpress before the system becomes slow and slugish and potentially damaging our brand with a poor experience. Any advice with potential limitations would be greatly appreciated we want to provide our loyal gaming community customers with a great social hangout space for communicating. cheers Paul
