i have been working in localhost URL is like: http://abcdev.arn/dcomm (i installed wordpress under this folder, and i installed BP, BB press plugins only. Theme is buddypress default theme).
I created 1 menu, 4 cusom categories (for my specific purpose). After installing BP, i got a message like—->: “BuddyPress is almost ready. You must update your permalink structure to something other than the default for it to work.”
If i change the permalink to other structure, my custom categories are redirects to error page. But the BuddyPress links are redirecting to error pages in either case!!
On top of the home page i can see “login”, “sign up” links. login is working fine but sign up is giving error like —> “The requested URL /dcomm/register/ was not found on this server.”
Please ask me for any other details you require..
Thanks,
Chenna
Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you need to use the first option, i.e., change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your wp-clearvideo theme folder in server during the compatibility process.
If you’ve previously changed any of the BP template files in your theme folder in server, replace all of them for a clean slate by deleting the 6 BP folders – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility.
Download the 6 clean BP folders to your computer hard drive.
A. At the top of each of those 16 template files I linked to above, replace
`
`
with the following:
`
<?php
global $wp_query;
$postid = $wp_query->post->ID;
if ( get_post_meta( $postid, ‘post_featpages’, true ) == “Yes” ) { ?>
<?php if ( function_exists('yoast_breadcrumb') ) { yoast_breadcrumb('
‘,’
‘); } ?>
<div class="post clearfix" id="post-main-“>
`
Then, in each of 16 files, you’d like to change the BP Templates’ page title’s header tag from `
…
` or `
..
` to `
// Titles Of Respective BP Page Templates //
`, just watch out when you do this in the /activity/index.php page.
Save files.
WordPress comes with a up to date version of jQuery. BuddyPress works with it. Maybe track down where your site is loading an old version of jQuery, and kill it.
@subway1968 If you do not need Group Forums, you can go to dashboard menu BuddyPress > Components and deactivate (uncheck) “Discussion Forums”
@ed161718 I will address your question at the link you posted above so we have one forum topic about easel woes.
You don’t say what your add action is hooked to ( or what the line number refers to ). Do you have a `’walled_garden’` hook in your template?
I would suggest trying the following (I use something similiar but allow access to groups and forums):
`
function sh_walled_garden()
{
global $bp;
if( bp_is_register_page() || bp_is_activation_page() )
return;
if( ! bp_is_blog_page() && ! is_user_logged_in() )
bp_core_redirect( bp_get_signup_page() );
}
add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘sh_walled_garden’ );
`
I also substitute `add_action( ‘wp_loaded’, ‘sh_walled_garden’ );` on a different site….
`bp_init` and `wp_loaded` are “native” to buddypress/wordpress so you don’t need to create your own template hook….
This is in a bp-custom-php file – using buddypress v1.5.5 as I haven’t upgraded to 1.5.6 yet….
Have you looked at this?

>2. Right now we only have the following tables set to use MyISAM, the rest being InnoDB:
Yup, it’s a compromise – but for us the benefit of row-locking in InnoDB outweighed the fulltext issue.
We don’t generally allow text searches.
And thanks for sharing your setup info.
Now that BP is being used for sites with larger and more active memberships, more devs are having these problems.
I think collecting info re tuning, caching, etc. approaches on a page somewhere in buddypress.org would be very useful and would generate some helpful ( and confusing ) discussion by us non-DBAs.
hello,
this is a WP question. That said you can tag more into your post.
Read here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Read_More
Also you can use some plugins, this one for example: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/more-fields/
Hi-thanks modernlooper for your reply
(I have now updated to latest BuddyPress & bbPress plugins-my site runs both plugins!).
Thankfully I have fixed the problem now but it was a bit tricky..
I now think the problem was an issue with x2 specific plugins-Wp Article Fetch & Tweet this.
On deactivating both of these from Network Admin (my site is running WP multisite) my blog (running WordPress & BuddyPress) is back to normal.
The Tweet this plugin is somewhat old & not updated so there could be some code issue with it. As for the WP Article fetch plugin I haven’t used it much so disabling it is no great issue!
(I will look for a new ‘Tweet this’ plugin as Twitter plugins are quite useful)
I still though need to get BuddyPress forums working properly on my site (I have posted several times for help with this on the support forum here but still BuddyPress forums are not running well on my site! If I wasn’t so stubborn to try & get BP forums working I would have deleted it ages ago & used an alternative eg Vanilla plugin or other-so if anyone can help me I would be grateful-but I don’t really expect any response as sadly I have had such limited response in the past from here to help me with this! I think BuddyPress is a misnomer; it could be better called somethingelse but I won’t type it now!..
…).
== @jamesewelch => WordPress version 3.3.2 ==
Deactivate BuddyPress and bbPress. Upgrade to WP 3.4 first. Then activate and upgrade BuddyPress and bbPress to latest versions.
Thanks for the reply shanebp.
1. I’m using Batcache, https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/batcache/ and Memcached Object Cache https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/memcached/ both of these use memcached for caching. We’ve used W3TC in the past on our WP-only sites, but it got be a little to unstable for our tastes… So far these seem to be working good, though we have to remember to bounce memcached in addition to PHP-FPM when we make a code change.
2. Right now we only have the following tables set to use MyISAM, the rest being InnoDB:
bp_groups
bp_groups_groupmeta
bp_groups_members
usermeta
users
We tried having them all to InnoDB, but due to its poor text searching performance compared to MyISAM, we switch back those 5.
3. TMPFS is worth its weight in gold. 
Wow, 30K, very impressive! I’m hoping that there is a lot of performance that can be squeeze out of our DB server, which will be looked at soon by actual DBAs (I do not in anyway claim to be one…). If not, I’m looking forward to BP 1.6 for some of those performance enhancements found from bug #4045!
Hello, there is a simply solution, few Extension as Buddypress shows messages errors with PHP 5.4, we could hide them.
Bonjour, la solution ci dessous en attendant que Budypress et d’autres extensions ( a vérifier au cas par cas) ne provoque pas d’erreur avec le php 5.4.
We must hide the messages errors / Nous devons cacher les erreurs PHP :
In /wp-includes/class-wp-error.php
/***************************Add after the first < php *************************************/
> after php to close it, don’t appear in this message, don’t lost it to close php
> after php n’apparaît pas dans ce message, ne pas l’oublier pour refermer la balise.
/***************************Ajouter après la première balise< php *************************************/
error_reporting(0);
@ini_set(‘display_errors’, 0);
Or simply directly to wp-config in the root.
Ou simplement dans le fichier wp-config à la racine.
PLus d’info dans / Most info in : http://www.wordimpressed.com/wordpress/php-turn-on-or-off-error-reporting/
With each update of WordPress, we must using this solution
A chaque mise à jour de WordPress, il faut refaire la manipulation si besoin.
Cordially / A bientôt.

Bonjour, je suis aussi hébergé chez Legtux, je confirme le problème vient bien de la version de PHPmyAdmin, j’ai installer WordPress en local avec:
Wamp + PHPMyAdmin 5.4.3= buddypress ne fonctionnait pas
Wamp + PHPMyAdmin 5.3.3=buddypress fonctionne
Avez vous reussit à faire fonctionner Buddypress ? Sinon je propose de faire un message à l’administrateur Legtux pour voir si il ne peut pas downgrader phpmyadmin vers la version 5.3
@vienem to do what your trying to do (essentially cloning the groups functionality and giving it a different usage) is quite complex (I’ve done it for another site of mine, and it wasn’t quick. Can’t share the code at this time though as It needs to be polished with some personal stuff removed).
If you want to do it – I suggest doing it properly (I’ve seen sites trying to take shortcuts and to be honest, it never works) Look through the code in the bp-groups folder to see how the core developers have built the groups component, and using the Skeleton plugin (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-skeleton-component/) to build it.
Just my suggestions.
Please make sure that your WP installation has been set up properly – pretty-permalinks included – before installing BuddyPress. In this vein, please post your mod_rewrite issue at the proper forum https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs
Yeah I tried it and was almost perfect for what I needed but I needed to limit the hierarchy so that only core groups could make sub groups instead of it being infinite.
I did post on there forums but no replies with no luck I’m still learning WordPress and Buddypress and browsed the code but couldnt see how I would limit them.
Hi Chouf1
Sorry, I’m not being clear enough. I’m already using style.css, but I’m finding that overriding the #nav rules in default.css more complicated than its worth.
What I’d like to do is override default.css in the theme with a local copy so I can comment out the section which is causing me problems and replace it with fresh rules in style.css.
This is more a WordPress question than a Buddypress one, but is it possible to get WordPress to load a theme css file by placing a copy in your child theme, or do I need to mess with the PHP to change the location? In the interests of BC and upgradablility I’d rather not trash all the CSS.
No, you’d need to create a totally different plugin to add signature to the Group Forums as it’s using the bbPress 1.0 custom BuddyPress version while that plugin is for the totally revamped bbPress 2.+ .
There was a plugin for the old BP1.2/bbPress1.+ but it was not updated for BP 1.5 https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-forum-extras/ you could try to update yourself or hire a developer to do so.
Other than the above, you could wait for BP 1.6 where Group Forums will be migrated over to bbPress 2.+ Sitewide Forums where you could use the signature plugin.
No signature plugin for BuddyPress Group Forums, but there is one for bbPress Sitewide Forums https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbp-signature/
@evolvedesign, please start a new topic next time. There’s a plugin for those using the bp-default or child theme thereof https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-profile-menu/
