Hi @minglonaire
This is a general WordPress problem, not specific to BuddyPress. You will get better help if you look at the WordPress.org support forums: for example, https://wordpress.org/support/topic/automatic-plugin-upgrade-not-working-ftp-problems?replies=47
Thanks
A superb plugin – millions of thanks.
I have a small problem in my set-up – in presence of BP-Cover activated, the Mute toggle does not work (tested in default twentyfifteen, can pm you a demo link if thats okay)
I have also posted here https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bp-cover-deactivates-mute-toggle?replies=1#post-6811281
The other similar functions (or dissimilar) like “Follow” “Block” etc do work in the same settings. Thanks for looking into this.
Hi @stefanievalentic
Thanks for the report. This will be fixed in the next version. See #6369
How can I get rid of the gap below the menu tabs? I can’t figure out where the file is that I should be editing.
Wordpress 4.1.1
BP 2.2.2
BP Column theme
This has been like this since I installed BP so I’m not sure it’s even fixable.
Wordpress version 4.1.1
Buddypress version 2.2.2
Theme is BP Columns
I suppose you know where to upload WordPress and where to upload BuddyPress.
Download BP and reload to site by FTP. No need to uninstall BP, simply deactivate, upload new copy and reactivate.
There is no mysql file !
If you have access to your DB, see what is in bp_activities table.
Are you on a MS or single WP install ?
Where is WP installed, as you linked to a sub-domain…
Is the assigned activity page empty, without any parent page or template ?
WordPress 4.0 running Catch Box theme.
BuddyPress 2.1
GothicSpider.com
I’m having button style trouble in IE9 (maybe newer versions too but I only have 9) FireFox and Chrome work great.
I’m using a gradient fade on buttons and in ie it only works on my ‘Post Update’ button. I can’t get it to take on my ‘Leave Group, Like, UnLike, ect.’ buttons.
My buddypress.min.css is….
#buddypress .comment-reply-link,#buddypress a.button,#buddypress div.generic-button a,#buddypress input, #buddypress input[type=button],#buddypress input[type=reset],#buddypress input[type=submit],#buddypress ul.button-nav li a,a.bp-title-button{
border:solid 2px #333;
background: #990000; /* Show a solid color for older browsers */
background: -moz-linear-gradient(#990000, #000000);
background: -o-linear-gradient(#990000, #000000);
background: -webkit-gradient(linear, 0% 0%, 0% 100%, from(#990000), to(#000000)); /* older webkit syntax */
background: -webkit-linear-gradient(#990000, #000000);
/* IE 8 */
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr=#990000, endColorstr=#000000)";
-webkit-border-radius:6px;
-moz-border-radius:6px;
border-radius: 6px;
-ms-filter-border-radius: 6px;
color:#E4741F;
font-size:.9rem;
cursor:pointer;
outline:0;
padding:3px 3px;
text-align:center;
text-decoration:none
Less importantly but I would still like to fix is the tiny bits of red extending above the button border on the top corners right at the blue arrow.
Thanks for any help. This one’s got me stumped.
Guys, can anyone give me working files (wordpress + mysql), so I could see difference myself?
hi @norek,
perhaps you did it wrong… No worry, download directly the patched file and add/replace it into buddypress/bp-core/
Trac reference is Branche 2.2.2 > bp-core/bp-core-filters.php r9741
Hello, everyone. I have a problem with Buddypress.
Wordpress 4.1.1 – Buddypress 2.2.2
There is no posts, pages or comments in Activity feed.
At first I encountered this problem on another site and then I decided that the problem may be associated with multiple revisions of WordPress files or there may be a conflict between installed plugins.
Then I created a special website for the test – http://test.mbarbakov.ru/members/sabi
I installed only Buddypress and no other plugins. I’ve used a standard theme “twentyfifteen” (and after that “bp-default” theme), but still there is no posts, pages or comments in Activity feed. Only “Sorry, there was no activity found. Please try a different filter.”
Issue still happens with Twenty Thirteen, Twenty Fourteen and Twenty Fifteen.
I’ve tried several solutions. Including those that have been recorded in this forum (Search Engine Visibility, “add_post_type_support( ‘page’, ‘buddypress-activity’ );” and other).
Please help.
P.S. BTW, excuse me for my english. 🙂
Thank you for the help. I’m not too good with mysql scripts, but what about using this tool:
Database Search and Replace Script in PHP
It seems like is should work at finding the old urls and replacing them with the new. I guess I could just try it out (with a database backup).
hi @julia_b,
you can try to apply patch 8. See here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6107
Will probably be solved in BP 2.2.2
Hi @fpvtv, @norek,
it’s actually an obvious issue which maybe solved in next update.
For now you could try to apply patch #8.
See ticket here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6107
Hi @alice-claire,
if the member counter shows 4.000 users and your dashboard only 2.000, wp_users table should contain around 4.000 user too.
Check this table first. Search for user status 1. In case you find some, these are probably ghost accounts.
See also wp_signup. Should normally be empty if you have no pending accounts in dashboard.
Now you can install this plugin and clean your DB.
I have had some complaints from users that when they try to post in a forum thread they get the following error message:
“You cannot reply to this topic”
I am confused by this as other users do not have the same problem and I was under the impression that when a user posts to a forum in a group they do not belong to, they are automatically added to that group.
Can someone tell me:
1. Am I right in saying that BuddyPress’s default behaviour is that when a user posts to a forum in a group they do not belong to, they are automatically added to that group?
2. If that is the case, why it isn’t working here and how it might be fixed?
I am using WordPress 4.1.0, BuddyPress 2.1.1 and BBPress 2.5.6.
I just wanted to thank you again for that plugin! Simplest solution and works perfect! Why not submit it to the WordPress plugin archive?
Why would you uninstall BP and reinstall it, you even don’t know where the issue came from ?
Take a breath and stay calm. 😉
Activate Twenty Fifteen theme.
Deactivate all plugins except BP.
check for anything is correct. If it is, you can reactivate your plugins one by one, checking after each for an issue, untill you find eventually a culprit.
If all is correct, the only thing who may bring an issue at this stage is your theme.
Activate it and see the result. If you get the same issue, you should contact the theme support.
We cannot help you for this, as it is a premium theme and we have no free access to it’s code.
Please read also here, where some basics are explained.

Hey Everyone,
I have recently moved my buddypress site to a new server and since the move both the Add Friend and Join Group buttons are failing to work anymore.
I just get the error: Are you sure you want to this? Please try again.
But, when you click to try again it does not work.
I believe the functioning of the buttons are working as members who are accepting friend requests that were sent previous to the server move are able to process.
I wondered if you could suggest a reason for these buttons not to work since moving servers, so I can pass on to the hosts in the hope it can be resolved as soon as poss.
Thank you for your time.
Wordpress version: 4.1.1
Buddypress version: 2.2.1
@rosyteddy a couple of good reads there man, i like to read through the comment sections on articles like the ones above because there is some good points raised, there are alot of varied opinions as how to effectively pull this off dependent on the complexity of your site, which i would consider mine as quite complex, the reason for the questions and advice is because of how complex i consider the website to be, i have alot of stylesheets for various different things here there and everywhere loading when not needed etc, in the past i have used plugins to successfully combine and serve them as one cached minified version etc.. but i was just wanting to go more in depth with it and configure it all myself to run at an optimum level.
I am going to be messing around with this over the next few days and will get back to you on what i feel was the best way to do it, any more advice off anyone else who has tackled doing this manually for wordpress/buddypress give us a shout.
No worries m8, as far as sleep is concerned, what is this sleep you speak of? hahahaha
Besides i just woke up at 12am so im up all night now, damn my sleeping pattern is a mess at the minute :/
Oh i always forget about the top menu as i have disabled the top bar, i hate it!
I hate the wordpress bar at the top and always have , it screams your using wordpress above anything else. I always disable it hence why i was working on my own notifications i a previous post.
