BuddyPress.org

I’ve also run into this… it’s not clear from the debugging page if a resolution has been found though?

Maybe this could help:

This worries me, as I cannot do this every time there is an issue like this on my site. I still do not know what was wrong.

I empathize. Of course nobody’s expected to do that at all. Did you read the requirements before installing BuddyPress at https://codex.buddypress.org/user/before-installing/ ? Have you been installing WordPress via webhosts’ scripts?

@ronia Check out the Events Manager plugin by @netweblogic https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/events-manager/ Has BuddyPress support!

As for Media plugins compatible with BP
1. free – BuddyPress Album – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-album/
2. free – BuddyPress Media – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-media/
3. premium – BP Gallery – http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-gallery/

>>users cannot communicate with, see each other, or even know other users exist). Only the admin will have the privilege of viewing profiles or commenting on users’ blog posts.

@bg01 As I see it, you don’t even need BuddyPress especially with the configuration you posted above.
– Just create a network (go multisite)
– allow students to create own blogs or create the blogs yourself and add student/user per blog
– make all sites private (Super Admin can see anything and everything)
– post comment on each student’s blog post.
If you have any issues with your multisite installation, please post at https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite

Alternatively, you can have one single WP site. Make it private, no feeds. Set access of all posts in front end and back end to Site Admin and respective post Author in custom WP theme. Only Site Admin can post comment in all posts.
If you have any issues, please post at https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting

In order to get this working, I had to reinstall WordPress entirely. This worries me, as I cannot do this every time there is an issue like this on my site. I still do not know what was wrong. I hope this issue, what ever it was, gets fixed in the future.

@vegaskev possibly upload_max_filesize is limited by default to 2MB. How large are the original images being uploaded? Some people do not realize the images being uploaded from devices are waaay too large. You could change file upload size check out http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-increase-the-maximum-file-upload-size-in-wordpress/ or check with hosting provider.

@hnla sure, will create trac ticket for this and add link to this topic
(strange, didn’t get notification for your @ mention)

EDIT – ticket with patch https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4864

Hello Evo252,

You should try this trick https://gist.github.com/imath/5083281

The trick will first add (as soon as you go in your WordPress Backend) a user_meta “evo_user_uploaded_avatar” to all the users that have uploaded an avatar thanks to the init function init_evo_meta() (don’t forget to delete lines 50 to 73 once ran) .

Then from now on functions evo_user_uploaded_avatar and evo_user_deleted_avatar will manage your users avatar uploads.

!Important:

I suggest you to first test it on a local dev environment, I also suggest that before uncommenting lines 67 and 68 you make a db back up.

Finally Once you ran the init_evo_meta() function, i suggest that you delete lines 50 to 73

@mercime Thank you for your response. I have already tried to re-upload BuddyPress once before, but I will do so again for good measure. My worry is that every time I face a problem with this plugin, the first recommendation is to re-install it manually. This is not going to be very helpful when I actually start using it and have a lot of content associated with it.

@afjsystem & @mercime For reference, and because I may not be doing something correctly, this is how I have fully and manually uninstalled the plugin:
1. I deactivated the BuddyPress Default theme
2. I deactivated the BuddyPress Plugin
3. I deleted the BuddyPress Plugin (again, the only plugin I had installed)
4. Using mySQL (through Terminal), I deleted all tables associated with BuddyPress within my WordPress database on my server

Please let me know if I am doing something incorrectly.

I will let you know what happens when I reinstall in a bit, but I have to run to a meeting at the moment.

The following two changesets should address your issue:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/6826/trunk
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/6829/trunk

anybody got any code for WP 3.51 and BP 1.6?

When I add this to bp-custom.php the links go away but I can’t log out or in without getting these errors.

I’ve also tried 50, 2 as suggested too.

The errors are:

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /homepages/6/d454963766/htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:1) in /homepages/6/d454963766/htdocs/wordpress/wp-login.php on line 368

When I delete the bp-custom.php file the errors go away but the links come back.

HELP>>> This is frustrating as best.

@bphelp go to your first post and click on EDIT link which shows up when you hover over the box. Add [Resolved] before the title of your post and you’re good to go. For your own site, you can install this cool plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddy-bbpress-support-topic/ to select Resolved in dropdown 🙂

@espellcaste You’re welcome. Good luck 🙂

@webifiedgeek please don’t post in 2-year-old topics. Your issue was resolved at https://buddypress.org/support/topic/wordpress-sitebuddypress-issue/
Closing this topic.

Marking this issue as resolved.

Please start a new topic about adding a menu and be more specific re Add a menu to the profile page (subnav). For/about what? Or do you mean you want to add a menu link to the user’s profile page?

I am finding this issue on BuddyPress 1.7 and WordPress 3.4 to 3.6 Beta versions….

>> text above the status update box that says something like “What’s New?” so members know to click in there.

>> I would like to know how to get that back?

@39images @bphelp for that specific item

1. create a new folder named buddypress in your active WP theme

2. within that buddypress folder you created, create a folder named activity

3. download https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/activity/post-form.php and place it in your new activity folder like so:
wp-content/themes/NAME-OF-YOUR-WP-THEME/buddypress/activity/post-form.php

4. Open up post-form.php. On line 21 https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/activity/post-form.php#L21 insert http://pastebin.com/z8e7xyRZ

5. Add the following to your theme’s stylesheet:
#whats-new-form p {
margin-left: 70px;
}

@webifiedgeek change to BP Default theme, you’d find the link to create a blog in the Blogs Directory page, right beside the title, Blogs. Or, create a link in your custom menu to create a blog. Assuming you kept the slug blogs in Settings > BuddyPress > Pages, the link would be http://example.com/blogs/create as simple as that.
