So i get this “The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Activate, Register. Repair”
I click on repair and create a new page however the page is just blank. How do I actually allow guests to register an account. I do have anyone can register enabled in wordpress settings
yes, I’ve done troubleshooting and searched the support forums with no luck.
@airfieldnotes RE BP Default theme http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2013/11/13/the-future-of-the-bp-default-theme/ so at this point that theme is not the standard you should be looking at.
I’ve created some extended profiles
Sanity check: you created those via Users > Profiles, right?
@sillery4ever the simplest solution would be to create a new file named buddypress.php, add code, then upload it to the root of your theme’s folder in server.
Re code you will place in buddypress.php:
Normally it is only a matter of copying over a theme’s page.php file and pasting it in buddypress.php, then configuring HTML etc. to render all your BP pages with the same layout using BP theme compatibility. See how it was done with the WP Default themes https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-theme-compatibility-and-the-wordpress-default-themes/
If that doesn’t work for you, please contact premium theme author for assistance.
Sorry, WordPress 3.9.1, Buddypress 2.0.1, using BP default and Magazine Basic Themes. And yes, I’ve done troubleshooting and searched the support forums with no luck.
Thanks for the tips.
@foresme
1) Activity Privacy: https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-activity-privacy/
2) Profile Privacy: copy over this file https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.0.1/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/profile/profile-loop.php into your active theme folder following this structure wp-content/themes/yourthemename/buddypress/members/single/profile/profile-loop.php
– at the very top of that file, insert:
<?php if ( is_user_logged_in()) : ?>
– at the very end of that file, insert:
<?php else : ?>
<?php echo "<div style='width: 100%; padding: 20px; border: 1px solid #eee; text-align: center; font-style:bold; font-size: 1.3em;'>You have to log in to view this member's profile.</div>"; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

@mayan2014 download older WP versions at https://wordpress.org/about/roadmap/
I hope you backed up your DB and files before upgrading WP/BP. To make sure that your BP and WP versions are synced, check out https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/releases/
Mercine,
Thank you for the quick response!
I already did at which point I realized that it was the update of wordpress that is giving me the error….How do I revert back to the older version of wordpress?
Thanks
Joel
@mayan2014 What BP version did you upgrade from? Have you checked whether the theme and/or the plugins you have activated in your site are compatible with the latest BP version?
You can rename/delete the BuddyPress plugin folder via cpanel or s/FTP. You can download older versions of BP at https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/developers/
Hi Roquefort.
After I posted this I investigated the source code and came to the same conclusion as you. BuddyPress does take over WordPress search and causes any other WordPress search (including the inbuilt one) to stop working.
I did however find a work around! What happens is buddypress defines a search slug that is the same as WordPress. What you have to do is redefine the buddypress search slug to something else and your search will start working again.
Basically you want to put the following in your wp-config.php
`define( ‘BP_SEARCH_SLUG’, ‘bpsearch’ );
I tried to load this further up the stack to try and override this but wp-config seemed to be the only place this worked.
You can find out more about how I worked this out over at this post:
BuddyPress and WordPress Search
I am experiencing the similar issues. BuddyPress by default “hijacks” the WordPress search, and searches seem to only be applied against my BP pages – which are few. I need my WordPress search back.
If there isn’t a way to include both (and given my Google searches, there doesn’t seem to be,) is there a way to disable BuddyPress search completely?
Hi,
I recently moved my site to a new host. I’m running the latest versions of WordPress and BuddyPress.
After the move, my avatars and images are incorrect sizes on the activity stream:
http://www.aftergiving.com/activity/
I was using Jetpack’s Photon. I’ve disabled Photon hoping that would solve the problem but no luck. I’m wondering if anyone has any ideas of what could be wrong?
Thanks much for any help.
Best,
Denise
you must select a page to view the list of members above. but the page I chose it is impossible to define a background or insert the css code in the page.
So I would create a wordpress pages. define my css. AND make an “includephp” of “member list” page in div or other.
We’re now in the 2.0 aera.
To apply changes to your BP 2.x site.
– Upload any theme you want and check first if it works with WordPress, specially by creating new users and sending messages.
– Upload and activate BuddyPress. Check conscientiously his settings. Changecalso the permalinks settings to your need (except by default).
– If everything is fine, after testing of course, you create then a child theme.
– if you need to alter some BP templates, you get copies of them from bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/ and put them in your child-theme/community/ or child-theme/buddypress/ directory. All other files, which are not (BP files) filed in bp-legacy, should be copies of your original theme added to your child theme.

Hi,
I am facing the same issue on buddypress 2.0.1 with WPLMS theme. I am new to wordpress, php so any help would be great..
Thanks,
Chandana.
Ok I’m lost I’ve read lot’s of threads concerning how to to apply a buddypress child theme and now I’ve just read: http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2013/11/13/the-future-of-the-bp-default-theme/
which seems to say that buddypress no longer supports child themes….
I’m really lost how do i go about apply changes to buddypress’s default pages in a manner that will hold up for future updates and not screw with my parent theme…
I currently have /wp-content/themes/child-theme/buddypress/COPY FROM buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/ in my child theme but it fails to recognize the theme files unless i move them up to the child theme folder… and when i do it then rips out the css and js for the buddypress pages….
How do i go about setting up buddypress’s theme files in my child theme.
Kind reagrds
Chris.
P.S I’ve also read :
Template Hierarchy
Theme Compatibility & Template Files
which just confused me further…
Do i copy over the bp-legacy folder if i do won’t this be discontinued…
I have installed the wordpress plugin and the Android APP with version 3.1.
But when I connect to my server, the error message is:
org.xmlrpc.android.XMPRPCException:
org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException:

Hi! I’m using BuddyPress Docs plugin and works great!! However, I’m wondering if it’s possible to add custom fields to it (I would need more fields than just title, content and attachement), like a form and have a PDF generator somewhere.
I’m use custom field plugin. Backend it’s working fine. Custom field working. But how to integrate frontend?

@intristin you can either
a) copy over member-header.php from second link following this to server wp-content/themes/your-theme-name/buddypress/members/single/ folder and create the button after this line or
b) ask chat devs re what to hook into bp_member_header_actions
@jarith Marking this topic as resolved.
As to removing the “Private” and “Protected” prefices, you could try adding bbPress forum conditional to your function or to the one Konstantin (first comment in that post) posted
e.g.
if ( class_exists('bbPress') ) {
if ( is_bbpress() ) {
// do this
}
}
Undoubtedly, you’ll get additional support at the bbPress forums 🙂
Greetings,
I am running the following;
Wordpress: 3.9.1
BuddyPress: 2.01
Website: http://www.vandiemengaming.com/
Installed fresh via subdomain and downloaded from WordPress and installed
Theme: Frontier (though issue happens with multiple themes)
I am trying to filter out posts and comments from my activity feed for all users. I have my posts and activity separate. Everything else I would like to show.
I have visited http://codex.buddypress.org/developer/loops-reference/the-activity-stream-loop/ and have put the following into the activity-loop.php
<?php if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘activity’ ). ‘&action=activity_update, friendship_created, profile_updates, new_member’ ) ) : ?>
This does remove the posts and comments from the Sitewide Activity, but the problems are;
-It removes profile updates
-It removes the ability to use the drop down menu
-The load newest button appears, and when clicking on that, it brings back all of the posts and comments (which I would not like)
I am requesting help to see if the above is obtainable and fixable.
I do have a suggestion to the devs, would it be possible to have an inbuilt filter in the next update?
Thanks & Regards
@payra123 I moved your post by creating a new topic. Please do not post in old threads which are months or years old.
downloaded buddypress 2.0.1 for using forum on my site
If you only need a forum, please download bbPress instead https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/
You’ll find installation and usage information at https://codex.bbpress.org/
after uploading i cant able to open my site and wordpress login php also showing blank
Please delete the BuddyPress folder from wp-content/plugins/ in your server.
I had this problem. Solved it by disabling plugins one by one.
I found out that the culprit was the Google Analytics Dashboard for WordPress… aaaarrrgghhhhh!
Hi,
I’ve got the issue, that new user after the registration got no role.
In wordpress I define event contributor as the default role.
I can change it, but there is no effect.
What can be the issue?
