3d theme: fraction from orange themes (i already contacted their support and i am waiting for their reply)

Hi

Thank you for responding.
I tried a few other themes including twentythirteen & Mesocolumn – no difference.
Then today I disabled all plugins except buddypress & bbforum.

Observation:
#1. The mentioned links worked.
#2. I then first activated a number of security plugins + Hyper cache plugin. Problem back, of page not found, until I deactivated Hyper cache.

This was solved by reading this article => http://www.buddyboss.com/buddypress-speed-and-performance/ & doing this:

By default this plugin will cache all of your site’s pages, including your BuddyPress-specific content like activity posts and forum posts. This is not good, as your BuddyPress content is constantly updated and needs to remain fresh. To fix it add the following lines into “URI to reject” in the “Filters” settings panel of Hyper Cache:

/forums/
/groups/
/members/
/activity/
/blogs/
/messages/
/register/
/activate/

… I think current plugin terminology is “Exact URIs to bypass” & “(Starting with) URIs to bypass”, which I did and clearing the cache.

#3. As I continued activating, I discovered the used https://wordpress.org/plugins/404-to-start/ also causes if I try to go to my profile page or for example /members/user-x/, etc to re-direct to site front page, with no error.

I have to look into this later. The other plugins I had tried before caused some issues, so I was happy with this re-direct plugin.

Will report back, at least if I get a response from author or get a plugin not causing issues, someone could recommend one ;).

Thank you & regards.

Yes it is related to “Messages > Starred”. There is nothing wrong with the new feature. It’s this function that I found online that’s causing a conflict.

/* ——————————Start BP Post in profile code for function——————– */
function importSomething(){
return include_once ‘bp-custom.php’;
}
add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘buddyboss_child_bp_nav_adder’ );
add_action( ‘bp_template_content’, ‘profile_buddyboss_child_loop’ );
bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( ‘bp_core_template_plugin’, ‘members/single/plugins’ ) );

function buddyboss_child_bp_nav_adder() {
global $bp;
$post_count = count_user_posts_by_type( $bp->displayed_user->id );
bp_core_new_nav_item(
array(
‘name’ => sprintf( __( ‘Posts <span>%d</span>’, ‘my-poems’ ), $post_count ),
‘slug’ => ‘Articles’,
‘position’ => 250,
‘show_for_displayed_user’ => true,
‘screen_function’ => ‘buddyboss_child_list’,
‘item_css_id’ => ‘articles’,
‘default_subnav_slug’ => ‘public’
));
}
function buddyboss_child_list() {
add_action( ‘bp_template_content’, ‘profile_buddyboss_child_loop’ );
bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( ‘bp_core_template_plugin’, ‘members/single/plugins’ ) );
}
/*——- This is end of the code for above function ———*/
function profile_buddyboss_child_loop() {
$myposts = get_posts( array(
‘posts_per_page’ => -1,
‘author’ => bp_displayed_user_id(),
‘post_type’ => ‘post’
));
if( ! empty($myposts) ) {
foreach($myposts as $post) {
setup_postdata( $post );
if (has_post_thumbnail( $post->ID ) ):
$image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( $post->ID ), ‘sidebar-smallthumbnew’ );
else :
$image[0] = “…/wp-content/themes/Starkers-Child-2/images/vidimage.jpg”;
endif;
echo ‘<li class=”sidebar mostpop post-‘ . $post->ID . ‘”><div id=”postimage”>ID) . ‘”></div><div id=”postinfo”>ID) . ‘”>’ . get_the_title($post->ID) . ‘</div>‘;
}
echo ‘‘;
wp_reset_postdata();
} else { ?>
<div class=”info” id=”message”>
<p><?php bp_displayed_user_fullname(); ?> has No posts.</p>
</div>
<?php }
}
/* This is end of the code for above function */
remove_filter(‘bp_setup_nav’,”);
function count_user_posts_by_type( $userid, $post_type = ‘post’ ) {
global $wpdb;
$where = get_posts_by_author_sql( $post_type, true, $userid, true);
$count = $wpdb->get_var( “SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->posts $where” );
return apply_filters( ‘get_usernumposts’, $count, $userid );
}
/* ——————————This is end of the code for post in profile above function——————– */

It adds a new button on the user activity page and when the Message-Starred button is clicked it takes the user the lists of post page that the above function creates. How can I stop that fro happening. I really want to keep the starred message function and I don’t want to lose the lists of WordPress post in the user Activity page.

cool he will probs read this when hes online, this is the thing with buddypress, i just didnt understand when i first came to these forums a few years ago even though i had been comming longer without registering, I myself had shared hosting and thought yippee i have found a plugin that i was looking for and installed it, then after messing around with buddypress it dawned on me that shared hosting just was not gonna cut the ice with buddypress let alone wordpress for a serious install.

I then decided to delve into the world of dedicated/vps servers. I am by no means an expert in this world yet but i believe from my own experience that it is a very daunting task moving to these kind of setups at first, once you get the basics of initial setup and general security right its then time to tweak everything for future proofing and scaling and performance tweaking if your serious about the future of your website, unless your willing to pay ALOT of cash out to people who can do his for you full time.

This is why i sort of pushed my buddypress websites design back in favour of looking into all this. I think this is one of the biggest points concerning every website build and believe that not enough info is out there to make people understand just how important all this is to succeed with their websites, alot of people see these one click easy installs and adverts off companys telling them to come build your website with us its easy then see wordpress installed and think yippe look at my new website and what it can do, until of course they then get popular crash and burn then fail and give up because they just dont understand the reality involved in pushing forward a scalable environment. This is why i believe people doing a massive project such as buddypress should really be able to share this info with each other from nivice users to experts in this field.
