BuddyPress.org

@payra123 I moved your post by creating a new topic. Please do not post in old threads which are months or years old.

downloaded buddypress 2.0.1 for using forum on my site

If you only need a forum, please download bbPress instead https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/
You’ll find installation and usage information at https://codex.bbpress.org/

after uploading i cant able to open my site and wordpress login php also showing blank

Please delete the BuddyPress folder from wp-content/plugins/ in your server.

I had this problem. Solved it by disabling plugins one by one.

I found out that the culprit was the Google Analytics Dashboard for WordPress… aaaarrrgghhhhh!

Hi @kypto

Are you using a contact form plugin? You’ll need one because contact form functionality doesn’t come in WordPress or BuddyPress core.

To add a member’s name and email to the form data is easy (ish) but you’ll need a contact form in place first.

@leonyipa http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2013/11/13/the-future-of-the-bp-default-theme/
At this stage, only security fixes are being done on the BP Default theme so you’d be missing out on the enhancements/improvements added onto the new BP templates which are rendered inside regular WP theme pages as you found out using Twenty Fourteen theme. Check out https://github.com/modemlooper/Buddy-Default where modemlooper has ported the BP Default theme as a regular WP theme, i.e., you could use it with or without BP activated.

@philmeyer basically some issues still remain on @mentions https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5565

@denislafont,

just published something about this yesterday on BuddyPress Snippet Barn. The blog is french, but the code is in english.

Is some question about videos, see here.

Novice here… this should be fun. (July 2014)

I got someone to import users in to my sweetdate (2.6.1)/buddypress (2.5.4) site. The users are there in the WordPress users, but not in the Buddypress site. They don’t even show up in the Pending Activation. I can see them in the SQL Database.

How can I migrate them in to the Buddypress members, searchable, database.

Thanks in advance.

Enable debugging:

And see if any error messages are logged or outputted.

I’m guessing you have an older plugin that you want to support with the newer theme compatibility standard.

Since you’re referencing bp_core_load_template( 'activity/index' ) in your example, I’m guessing you are trying to add theme compat for a new slug in the activity directory (eg. example.com/activity/new-slug/)? If so, you’ll want to copy the following code, rename the class and change a few things, so it is applicable to your plugin:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.0.1/bp-activity/bp-activity-screens.php#L301

Then you would load up your new class with the bp_core_load_template() call.

if ( class_exists( 'BP_Theme_Compat' ) ) {
     new BP_Activity_WHATEVER_YOUR_CLASS_IS_CALLED_Theme_Compat;
}
bp_core_load_template( 'activity/index' );

@jovicar something like https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-registration-groups-1/ ?

that I’m using the BuddyPress default theme

@lorns Change to the Twenty Fourteen theme.
Strange that you could see and activate to the BP Default theme in a new installation http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2013/11/13/the-future-of-the-bp-default-theme/

But if I act as a new user, I cannot register using the BuddyPress register page.

Please make sure that you’re logged out first before going to the register page. If you were logged out, do give steps or more information to replicate the issue.

@giorgosnl Next time, please start a new topic as moderators could miss your post.

But when I click on upload image it redirects to my profile and will change admins image??

When I checked the issue you posted, the avatar was correctly changed in user’s profile but the update did redirect after completion to the Site Admin’s profile page. The issue was also posted at https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5580 and fix is slated for BP 2.1.

If your issue is not resolved with the patch after changing to one of WP Default themes and deactivating all plugins except BP to exclude conflicts, please feel free to create a new trac ticket using your WP username and password to log in.

You’ll probably get a better answer using the support forum for that plugin.

My guess would be that you are hooking too early and the remove_action calls fire before those add_actions exist.
Maybe try a hook other than ‘plugins_loaded’.
Have you tried ‘bp_include’.

Filters have to return something.
You’re only returning if a condition is met.
So no buttons will appear.

And you aren’t passing the $arg, so you can’t return it.

Try:

function hideAddFriend($button){
	$caps = get_user_meta(bp_get_member_user_id(), 'wp_capabilities', true);
	$roles = array_keys((array)$caps);
	// Hide friendship buttons
	if(in_array("inactive", $roles)){
		return '';
	}
        return $button;	
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_add_friend_button', 'hideAddFriend');

also – are you sure that your get_user_meta approach to retrieving ‘inactive’ is working?

The way I achieve this is by using wordpress blank avatar and css.
In wordpress dashboard Settings -> Discussion, change default avatar to Blank.
In your css file add this (after uploading the image you want to use ->

.avatar {background:url(image/custom_avatar.png) 0 0px no-repeat!important;background-size:100%, 100%!important;}

i think this setting is on the options-reading.php page in WordPress 2.0.1 and is now called:

Search Engine Visibility 	
Search Engine Visibility Discourage search engines from indexing this site
It is up to search engines to honor this request.

…not 100% sure though…

Should the child theme be under themes or templates?

@jeremiahward I assumed that you created a child theme of your theme so that whatever modifications you make won’t be overridden when you upgrade your theme. As noted in WP codex, the child theme should be in the same folder as your parent theme is, i.e., wp-content/themes/your-child-theme-folder. Thus, if you go the child theme route, that index.php file mentioned above would go into wp-content/themes/your-child-theme-folder/buddypress/activity/index.php – so should the other BP files you modified

i am still having this problem and have updated to the latest versions of buddypress and wordpress…
