Have I to do anything right now? Or have I to read it only for the moment?

you have nothing to do for the moment on the ticket, except to visit it regulary to see if someone has responded.

Now, your fresh install.
What is the /usage/ folder for ?

Most hoster have a root folder like htdocs or wwww.
You install WP at the root. Eg. server root/wp-content, server root/wp-admin, etc

In the htaccess file (WP MS) you should have something like this:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^wp-admin$ wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>

rewrite module must be active, it’s very important.

Now what i suppose you did wrong.

In wp-config, put this at the end, just before the line who says: don’t touch here….

define('MULTISITE', true);
define('SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', true);
define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', '1a-spielwiese.de');
define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/');
define('SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
define('BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);

You can follow a similar install mistake here, with the solution.

A last try please. Remove www from the site url in the site settings.

See here how to change it and see if yo get the button.

I opened a ticket for this.
Please follow it, as you will probably be invited to give some more details to solve it.
Thxs.

Login credentials for the Trac are the same as on this forum.

Do you use a wordpress copy provided by your host ?
Do you use a child-theme ?
Do you use any shortcode on the register page ?

Disallow blog creation for the moment and remove all xprofile fields to get only the default name field.
Also download a fresh copy of wordpress and upload the twenty twelve theme folder to your site. Maybe your’s is corrupted somewhere.

FYI:
The original file is in buddypress/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-classes.php (BP 2.0.2)
The patched code is here.
The part you mention is for developpers unit test. You have nothing to do with that. 😉

Here you can download a copy of the patched file I use. You put it here:
wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-xprofile/
And here the code to add into bp-custom.php

function bpfr_hide_profile_field_group( $retval ) {
	// hide profile group to members when on profile edit
	if( is_user_logged_in() && bp_is_profile_edit() ) {
           // exlude groups, separated by comma
		$retval['exclude_groups'] = '6';          		
	} 
	return $retval;	
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_profile_parse_args', 'bpfr_hide_profile_field_group' );

We are on the way to determine what’s happening ! Be patient ! 😉
You said you installed your site before the wildcard was setted.
So i presume you installed your wordpress before too !

Normally during the install, a htaccess file is generated. The problem is that a MS htacces and a single htaccess file doesn’t contain the same rules. And same remark for the wp-config file.

IMHO the easiest solution is – if the wildcard exist now – to remove the wp-config file from your site via FTP and to restart the installation process.
No need to remove plugins and themes. Simply rename the plugin folder to xxx-plugins and they all will be deactivated.
Once re-install successfully finished, you rename the plugin folder and you reactivate them one by one from the admin dashboard > plugins.

Don’t forget that you’re on a MS. This means that you have 2 (zwei) dashboards. One for the main site and one for the Network. And that BuddyPress should be installed on the network.

Yes, by creating a custom function.

How to Create A Custom BuddyPress Members Directory

(2nd topic gives a technique you can use)

Both URL’s goes to error pages.
So i’m affraid that you have to check your whole installation from the begin, first on your host (by reading his documentation) and after that your sites.

To do that, you first need to ensure that your domain has a wildcard if you want to use subdomains.
Then follow WP network install instruction and re-read BP install.

Configure BuddyPress

Hi @thetinus,

first of, two advice:
http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/why-you-should-never-upload-a-video-to-wordpress/
http://support.hostgator.com/articles/specialized-help/technical/wordpress/why-videos-should-never-be-uploaded-to-wordpress

To your question a) & b)
yes you can code a custom (user) profile page. And yes you can use a player on it.
But all depends of the number of videos attributed to each user, how many user will use this, the config of your server and of course your personnal knowledge about templating BP and php coding.

Also, embeding hosted videos on profiles from official WP providers is very very easy – and powerfull. Doing the same from your own server is a bit more delicate to handle.

BuddyPress Theme Development

BuddyPress Plugin Development

If you have questions, please ask only one by topic and try to be very specific and detailed.
what you want to do
what you already did – give example or pastebin your code
and what you think should work and doesn’t.

thank you !

Should i change template to deactivate this plugin?

Yes, try this first. then activate 2013 theme.
Deactivate also all plugins except BP and reactivate them one by one to find the culprit. If everything goes well with the plugins, you reactivate your theme.

If you used bp-custom for some changes, remove the file while testing.
Also in your theme, if you tweaked functions.php, remove it and replace it with the original functions file.

Same recommendation if you use a child-theme. Remove it completely during your test.

But before deinstalling definetly BuddyPress, i would take a moment to see what happens with my install.

I’ve been using this plugin for a long, long, time to help with both development and member support:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-switching/

It’s a very cool little piece of code that might be exactly what you’re looking for.

Hope that helps.

A logged in user is logged by role. This means that a super admin (independantly of the name) is always a super admin.
On the same maner, a subscriber role is always a subscriber, independantly of his name.

Now if you need to “see” what a subscriber (or an author, or an editor) can see, you have to asign to yourself an account of a subscriber (or an author, or an editor).

So this answer is correct:
If you want to login as a user, you have to create that account first and than login as that user.

Hallo @1a-spielwiese,

when checking the source code of http://www.1a-spielwiese.de/register/ you can see that, aside the missing buttons, the footer is also missing and at least mainly of the ending tags such as body and html…

I would try to deactivate the custom css plugin and use a child-theme to do minor css modification for entry titles.

Twenty Twelve Theme

I tested the snippet and applied the patch to 2.0.2 and it works. So i guess you did something wrong. 🙁

BP 2.1 is expected in 12 days !

Agree with @shanebp!

I’m trying to isolate an apparent quirk in BuddyPress having to do with an embedded user avatar image (via shortcode) not linking properly to the user profile…

To my knowledge, BP doesn’t supply shortcodes? I suspect if you search your theme for something like add_shortcode( 'shortcode-name-here' and look in the hook’s code, therein you’ll find the problem.

BuddyPress uses the bbPress plugin for forums.
