BuddyPress.org

Did upgrading to 3.6 beta work? I’m having this exact same problem. I just get a square in the top left corner which when dragged messes everything up BIG TIME! I’m using the GrandMag theme from IndustrialThemes (Premium) but they’ve removed the theme since and are in hiding. Also, this is a site for a client with alot of work gone into it and a week from going public.

I knew I shouldn’t have upgraded! Idiot! There should be a rollback option in WordPress!Or a plugin test mode before you commit.

I’m not aware you can use it twice but perhaps you don’t have to. What about having types of groups?

You can do a custom field to indicate type using maybe: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-groups-extras/

Then you can check for type and load a different template, style differently, change language and name.

I’m not sure about forums but you could do something similar using forums and topics.

Admin’s can edit under the WordPress admin panel > Activity.

Aside from that there was this plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-edit-activity-stream/ – not sure if that works on current versions though. May be worth trying out on a safe test site (not your live site) to see.

Sure @bphelp, here is the link https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-media/. They also have some pro add-ons like video, tagged. I deleted this plugin a few months ago but at this momment they are updating it frequently and have great support.

BP Bug Reports -> https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/
Please provide info about your installation when you post there -> WP/BP versions, single/multisite install, if multisite where is BP installed, theme used, plugins activated, etc.
Thanks.

hi,

mybe cubepoints-buddypress-integration plugin

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cubepoints-buddypress-integration/

can help you, you need to install cubepoints plugin before then disable points for everything and enable only ranks.

This should have dealt with quite a few versions back so something may have crept back in. If you can ensure this isn’t some odd plugin issue and that this definitely wasn’t happening in 1.6 please open a ticket on http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org using your site credentials.

I will just add though that a quick test on a local install running trunk does NOT show any issue like this, so check carefully it isn’t plugin issue also scan through trac to see if there was a recent ticket and fix put in place.

@aliceembroid
Can’t be certain about what would cause this but for starters your using a bunch of outdated plugins and an outdated theme that I believe @modemlooper removed from the repo. You are probably going to have get a theme that is isn’t outdated and uses standard wordpress template structures. With the new compatibility you really wont need the buddypress template pack. I would advise you to read the readme.txt that came with all those plugins as well and the ones that are outdated you need to deactivate each one using the process of elimination and test until you find the culprit, then ask the author for support. If that doesn’t get you any help then you may want to consider hiring a well skilled developer to sort it out for you.

@fernon,
be more specific please !
i’ve seen in other topics that this is a bug in Buddypress. URL ?

Problem can be theme related. Which theme do you use ?

There’re only few tickets about timestamp bugs.

@mercime ok so i am in my /themes folder and i have located page.php the code found in that file is below, where do i change things to make the button who up?

<?php

/**
 * The template for displaying all pages.
 *
 * This is the template that displays all pages by default.
 * Please note that this is the WordPress construct of pages
 * and that other 'pages' on your WordPress site will use a
 * different template.
 *
 * @package  WellThemes
 * @file     page.php
 * @author   Well Themes Team
 * @link 	 http://wellthemes.com
 */
 ?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<section id="primary">
	<div id="content" role="main">
	
	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
		<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>				
			<?php get_template_part( 'content', 'page' ); ?>
		<?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
	<?php endif ?>	

	</div><!-- /content -->
</section><!-- /primary -->
<?php get_sidebar('left'); ?>
<?php get_sidebar('right'); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

@hallsy @akukskuks Normally, the “Create Group” and “Create Blog” (for multisite) buttons show up beside the Group/Blog Directory Title. The buttons do not show up if the_title(); tag in your theme’s page.php was placed outside of the WordPress loop.

There are different ways to address this issue. One way is to create the link for logged in users. For example, your WP/BP is installed in domain root, http://example.com, then the link t create a group would be http://example.com/groups/create/ by default.

@kkradel https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.7.1/bp-themes/bp-default/sidebar.php

@jskehill the issue with some premium WP themes are that the theme authors create proprietary templating systems. The page.php of the theme should have the_title() and the_content() within the WordPress Loop for automatic BuddyPress Theme Compat to work. If those are not there, a Theme Compat solution would be to copy your theme’s page.php file and SAVE AS > buddypress.php then ask Theme Dev for assistance in replacing proprietary title/content tags intp WP’s the_title() and the_content() tags in that buddypress.php file. Then upload the revised buddypress.php file in your theme’s folder in server.

@nanaimomen
Why use a plugin? Just google poker and casino games with chat and place the embed code within your WordPress page you want it to display on.

@truthmedia

You can submit your bug report here. This way the developers will catch sight of it.

The improvement keeps on going further and further. I really appreciate the works you guys have out in. Long Live Buddypress and WordPress.

I help with support but I am just a volunteer like most other folks. I am not a moderator at all. I just pay it forward for all the folks that helped me in the past. There is no guarantee anyone can fix everything but there is a lot of us that is good at fixing some things. So don’t isolate your issue by requesting help from any single individual. I just checked your site and the pages are blank as you stated. Have you created a custom menu yet to associate those pages with the navigation?

@praisehim
It is not a bug at all. I use this code with BP 1.7 and WP 3.5.1 with various themes downloaded from wordpress.org and it works flawlessly. Either you have a theme, plugin, or custom code that is conflicting with the code. Please make sure you test it thoroughly as I have before stating it is a bug.
