BuddyPress.org

I’m new to buddypress but believed a login and register link would be placed in the header by default?

Not by default. It depends on the the design by theme author.

However, instead do I need to insert my own links or buttons within the header.php to make this work?

Yes. You would need to create those. See lines 8 through 59 of https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.7/bp-themes/bp-default/sidebar.php for code. Then adjust style to taste.

Thanks. Is there a link where I can still download 1.6.5?

@curt-ri as hnla mentioned above, you should be on BP 1.7 now. But if you still want BP 1.6.5 click on this link, download to your computer and unzip the file. Upload /buddypress/ folder within

Think this has been covered in this trac ticket:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4869

this is probably what you are looking for not 100% sure myself if it’s totally compatible with 1.7 but i would assume so:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddydrive/ ?

You need to stop them now, as best you can and delete all members you have in there. A new BP site I have has had over 29,000 spam stopped in the last month. Do not forget WordPress is under a bot attack at the moment.

Firstly, Switch off that any one can register on your site.

Clean out all the spam members. Delete them.
Install Stop Spammer Registrations Plugin from WordPress.Org (Saved my life)
Install Limit Login Attempts
Install capachi plugin and set it up for it to be on when people are registering.
Change your admin name, if it is admin.

Switch back on that people can register on your site.

These posts might help you as the same thing happened to me.

You should never edit the core bp files!

Have you checked that, if necessary, all your plugins are updated to be compatible with bp 1.7

According to buddypress.org/support/topic/buddypress-1-7-is-now-available-2/page/2/#post-161513 a similar error message was caused by an un-updated plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-followers/ ?

Adding link to ticket for convenience:

Also the temp fix is probably better placed in bp-custom.php rather than functions.php so it is applicable to BP generically rather than by theme activated.

BuddyPress 1.7 does work with most themes providing they have standard wordpress template structures. There really is no way I see for BP to be compatible with every template scheme out there. There is plenty of free themes on wordpress.org that work fine with BP.

Depends on if it requires a little wordpress and bp customization but you can try here:

BP Jobs Board

Just remember BP is a wordpress plugin and it requires wordpress to work. Good luck!

Be specific in what your requirements are. List your budget, and as much info you can.

Have you tried:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddyplug/

Here goes another plugin that does exactly what you want.

@sarathbabu_k You can find the answer for your question here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/compatibility-with-wp-document-revisions-plugin?replies=5

@cabstar
Have you tried this:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/commons-in-a-box/
It may be perfect for what you are doing and hopefully will be updated for BP 1.7 soon!
Find out more about it on the link to the site on the plugins download page.

I was looking for a simple solution for this function and couldn’t find one so I wrote it.

You can download a bundled plugin by clicking here.

I had the same issue and when I tried to install the plugin you mentioned it didn’t work.

After waiting to hear back from the developer for awhile with out hearing back I just wrote my own. You can download a bundled plugin by clicking here.

Sorry there was an error in the above code, that results in a no results dialog error for users who have no posts. You can download a bundled plugin by clicking here.

if ( !function_exists( 'add_action' ) ) {
	echo 'Hi there!  I\'m just a plugin, not much I can do when called directly.';
	exit;
}
define('TCH_PostsOnProfilesVersion', '0.1');
define('TCH_PostsOnProfilesVersion_PLUGIN_URL', plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ ));

add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'add_profileposts_tab', 100 );
function add_profileposts_tab() {
global $bp;
bp_core_new_nav_item( array(
'name' => 'My Posts',
'slug' => 'posts',
'screen_function' => 'bp_postsonprofile',
'default_subnav_slug' => 'My Posts', 
'position' => 25
)
);
// show feedback when 'Posts' tab is clicked
function bp_postsonprofile() {
add_action( 'bp_template_content', 'profile_screen_posts_show' );
bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( 'bp_core_template_plugin', 'members/single/plugins' ) );
}

function profile_screen_posts_show() {
$theuser = bp_displayed_user_id(); 
query_posts("author=$theuser" );
if ( have_posts() ) :
get_template_part( 'loop', 'archive' );
else: ?>
