ModeratorBeing able to create a group without logging in is more than ‘clever’.
There have been a few similar reports over the last couple of years – always specific to groups – suggesting that there is a ‘hole’ somewhere, maybe in BP.I don’t know what the solution is and have been unable to replicate the problem.
@leighgregg
What version of WP and BP are you using?
Are you using any additional plugins or code re BP Groups?There was an issue that was fixed for BP 2.2

ParticipantFirst of all thank you so much for taking the time to try to figure out where the problem is.
Anyone can register is acitvated and now my pages appear. It looks a bit different then in the past. But it works.
Now…when I click on my sineup button (on the right corner of my website/ http://kompanio.de) I get an Error that says this: “ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS”
Is this a wordpress/buddypress issue or is this a total different error that has other reasons?

ModeratorHey @lepittenger
There may be a plugin out there that can do all that you need but you may be able to achieve what you need without a plugin
WordPress uses Roles and Capabilities to dictate what a user can and cannot do.
Take editing a page for example. Any user with a role of Editor or above will be able to do that so all you’d need to do is change the user’s role via the admin area.
Hope this helps!

ParticipantThanks. I am have tried multiple sitemap plugins and they all give the same error when BuddyPress is active. If I disable BuddyPress the sitemap works fine. I am using WordPress SEO by Yoast at the moment, same deal. http://bphope.staging.wpengine.com/sitemap_index.xml

ParticipantBuddyPress is only a plugin you can use with almost any correctly formated theme.
See here how you have to do this:

wp-MonalisaI know that’s quite a lot of plugins, but how can I reduce them, if I need the functionality? Is it possible that the problem comes from just too many plugins?
February 8, 2015 at 3:27 pm #234129ModeratorI see what you mean about this possibly being confusing to the member. I think you should create a Trac ticket for this to see what the core developers think.

ParticipantThank you for your reply.
I figured that it would be the best place to ask prior to going down the rabbit hole with the BuddyPress documentation and website. It’s been labeled as rather archaic, cryptic, and unreadable by many people that I asked for advice. I contribute to several other open source projects and might jump in on your docs/forum if the platform seems like something that will be handy for me in the future.
As for the project being a copy, it’s really just identical in feature sets but not a literal copy of the site. Design is very different and it’s not dog sitters that are members. This site is for parents and babysitters which is highly similar to dogvacay.com in feature set. Yep, their site is built in Java. ::vomits a little::
The key features that need to be included:
– two member types (parents and babysitters)
– they should be able to message each other privately
– parents can schedule a date for the sitting to happen
– parents can browse babysitters
– custom profiles for each with different sets of information (based on a conditional of type)It appears that I was able to answer my own question over the past few days by utilizing the codex and going through all of the code. BuddyPress looks to be the best option for handling all of this unless I was to custom code a plugin (I am actually a PHP developer NOT a wordpress dev). I was looking at utilizing BuddyPress for cutting down time by using the friend associations and messaging system.
BP might be a little much for this project but I can see value in several features that they might want in the future.
I apologize for posting this in err to this forum if it’s not really a good place for asking whether it’s a good platform for such a situation. All of the documentation/about is written in a fashion that presents it as useful in only one way. It made it rather difficult to decipher how I could rip the plugin apart to do what I need instead of using it as “out-of-the-box.”
Might there be some advance blogs out there where people have written about different ways to use the plugin? Just so that I can dig into the community a little more.
Have a nice day.
February 7, 2015 at 9:51 pm #234090ModeratorHi @alexfa08
It’s great to hear you’re thinking of theme development particularly for BuddyPress.
There’s lots of things to consider, but The Theme Review article is a good place to start. It details some guidelines as well as standards and good practices.

Participant@imath okay then add notice by the side of : Associate WordPress Pages with the following BuddyPress Registration pages.
Before you use this go to /wp-admin/network/settings.php
and select “Both sites and user accounts can be registered.”WP+BP needs to have distro
WP and BP standalone
WP Network and BP
any otherDistros will have inbuilt pages and settings already available so that users are not confused. Users can straightway use the flavor they want – simple!

Moderatorhaving this settings on “Logged in users may register new sites” means registrations are off for WordPress. Deactivate BuddyPress and you will see WordPress will not allow you to register. Activate BuddyPress 2.1.1 and you’ll see that there are no regressions.
The problem is elsewhere.
February 7, 2015 at 5:37 pm #234075Participanthttps://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-labs/ says :
This plugin hasn’t been updated in over 2 years. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.
It is also buggy and does not work. Compatible up to: WordPress 3.5, BuddyPress 1.7What you say is true but certain essential features need to be there. Again there can be debate what is essential to me is not essential to you. But “Likes” ( or any other name for it) is a core feature of Elgg, Drupal, Phpfox, Oxwall – name any paid or FREE scripts. It is sad that the “Likes” code of wordpress com has not been passed to wordpress org and more sad that it has not thus been incorporated into buddypress. Apparently there are lots of efforts at re-inventing wheels.
Please also understand that majority of users who are using BP
– are small to medium users, many are hobby users
– they cannot code a plugin but looks for readymade solution
– they have to customize their site which takes time and effort, get content and usersJust as developers are gracious and we are grateful to them, so are the users – if users never adopted and tested freely BP so much where it would have been?
I think we badly need a StackExchange type Q and A forum here that comes up with actual code or solutions, which can be rated and used instantly.February 7, 2015 at 5:25 pm #234072mrjarbenne
Participant@djpaul had a Like component in his BP Labs plugin that you might want to look at:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-labs/
Between that and the BuddyPress Likes plugin that allows likes for other components, maybe you could develop something to help the broader community, or at least to fit your site’s needs.
One of the benefits of open source is the availability of code you can iterate upon to create something that fits your needs so you don’t have to continually start from scratch when developing a site. Note that many plugins are not built to appease the masses, as much as they are custom built for specific sites and specific purposes. The developers are then gracious enough to share that creation to the community, but I don’t believe that means they need to ensure that their plugin is a swiss army knife, when they had created it to merely open cans. You can’t always expect to find something that perfectly fits your needs (although it’s great when it happens, and it happens often).
There seems to be enough blocks out there for you to build/commision to have built, something that does what you need.
February 7, 2015 at 3:56 pm #234060In reply to: Activate & Register page question
ParticipantOn a network install, BP is activated on the main site (standart usage).
An you create activation and register page only on this site, for the entire network !You haven’t to create these pages for each blog, as they are all dependant, by sub-domain or sub-directories, of the same WP install.
One WP + one BP = ms network && 10 000 blogs. 😉
February 7, 2015 at 2:30 pm #234055In reply to: Buddypress Settings Won't Save?
ModeratorIn BuddyPress 2.1.1, when using this setting “Logged in users may register new sites” > registering new users is not available.
If you deactivate BuddyPress to only let WordPress, this setting doesn’t generate a registration link.
In BuddyPress 2.2 same behavior. So no bug.This means the problem is coming from the plugin invite anyone. Since BuddyPress 2.2, the way this plugin was overriding BuddyPress site options is not working anymore. I’m going to inform the developer of the plugin.
February 7, 2015 at 12:20 pm #234043In reply to: Noob recommendations
ParticipantMy 2 cents about your question is it would be difficult to answer.
The site you mention is not a WordPress install.
Visually:
The used theme is nice and if you check what exist for WP, you’d probably find a similar one.Functionnaly
as you say nothing about your project, it’s difficult to tell if BP is adapted.Generally, imitating an existing site is not a good idea. WP and BP are powerfull enough to let you get unique.
Conclusion:
this is a firstly a support forum, with not much advices around pro and contras. There are many specialized sites around design and BP usage to let you make an opinion.You can begin here by reading the about page, the blog and the whole forum.
Good luck ! 😉
February 7, 2015 at 12:01 pm #234040In reply to: Activate & Register page question
Participanthi @yosmc,
registration and activation are directly dependant of WordPress, that’s (i presume) the reason why BP doesn’t create those page for you automatically.
This is not a problem when you use a fresh install, but can be one if you’re installing BP on an existent WP install. In this case, some original settings may be slightly change i guess.
BP uses all those page for internal purpose. And this usage is somehow enforced with 2.2.0 version.(see here from trac)There is anyway no alternative when BP is on. You have to create those page manually. Point.
I don’t think there is a way to get those page automatically created.
Creating them will take 1 mn, which is a less effort in regard of developing a custom function for an operation which is only done once. 😉February 7, 2015 at 9:59 am #234031ModeratorSometimes replies are maked as spam. That may have been the reason? Either way, it would probably have been better if the notification was cleared to avoid confusion at your end.
Feel free to open a Trac ticket to report the problem to our development team.

ParticipantHello,
I am having the same problem also. It was fine until I updated Buddypress. “The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Search Page. Repair” Is the homepage notification. I choose the pages and the settings do not save.
