` to `
// Titles Of Respective BP Page Templates //

Hi Jason
Goodluck with your quest. BTW I like green!
I setup my WP site with BuddyPress around 12 months ago & I still do not have BuddyPress working as I want it!! This is very frustrating for me. I have not had great help on this site here except from Mercime who is helpful.
I am though determined to get BuddyPress going as I want with my WordPress site because I am stubborn! It is very tempting to use alternative php forum software. There are a few good ones around which you can add to your site & say bye bye to BuddyPress hassles & problems etc.
Anyway keep me posted on how you get along & maybe we can help each other on this?
Best wishes 
In effect, you changed the site url/moved WP, I hope you backed up DB and server files before moving
– https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL specifically https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL#Changing_the_URL_directly_in_the_database
– https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress
In some cases, the issue would be resolved by adding this to your wp-config.php file
`define( ‘WP_HOME’,’http: //mysite.com’ );
define( ‘WP_SITEURL’,’http: //mysite.com’ );`
change http://mysite.com to your actual domain name
Thanks for the reply. I hope 1.6 is released soon. I do appreciate the work that so many put in. WordPress is my favorite so far. The dedication and participation you all have is rare and admirable.
@mercime: Thanks… change set 3654 https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3654 looks interesting.
This is a major and awesome step in the right direction. Especially adopting the buddypress extension APIs. Excellent work !!! Now I need to figure what is needed to check it out.
3654 looks like it supports multiple forums per group. It looks like it also supports shared forums across groups.
I didn’t see anything to define a ‘preset’ list of forums on enable or group create.
Being able to define forums private to groups so they can’t be shared would be very useful, at least to remove clutter when you have many groups with 3-4 forums each.
It looks like forums can be part of categories (as a parent).
@neodjandre – The way the feature works is somewhat deceptive, what it does is posts a message on the screen (rather than their inbox) similar to what facebook does here – https://tctechcrunch2011.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/facebook-groups-news-feed-error-message.png and it requires the template tag:
`
`
As seen in the default theme sidebar – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/bp-themes/bp-default/sidebar.php#L26
@o4tuna the way buddypress works in regards to roles and capabilities is being worked on by the core devs, half of it will be implemented in 1.6. Trac: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3740
There’s only one Group Forum per Group with no hierarchy. As for Sitewide Forums (the bbPress plugin), these forums are not associated to groups at all at this time. It’s in the roadmap to refactor/migrate Group Forums to Sitewide Forums @ BP 1.6. https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3598
1. https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/ go to page links on the right sidebar and read them
2. Albums/Galleries
a. BP Album/BP Media – free
b. BP Gallery – premium
Pinterist https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tags/pinterest – but none that I know specifically for the Albums/Galleries listed above.though you could make a request with plugin developer
3. User Blogs – you need to “Create a Network” i.e., make it Multisite
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! got damn we found a plugin that made the trick.
URL REWRITE 2.0
Found it on this link : http://www.amixa.com/blog/2011/01/07/wordpress-windows-2008-web-server-r2-iis-7-5-setup/
But ofcourse i run into a new problem
, Now i have to make the email function work 
Thanksfor the help so far!

So, i have to enable cookies on the server side? I’m using IIS7, so in IIS7 somewhere i have to enable cookes for wordpress?
`I wish there was more written about what buddypress can do and what the end result will look like. I don’t like the examples in the showcase because they don’t even remotely look like the buddypress that I have. I would love to see a very plain skeleton example of what buddypress does and how to set up a basic forum.`
BuddyPress has a test demo site [http://testbp.org] which will show you what it can do out of the box without doing any extra coding. The only way i can think of to put the end result into words is “It gives you a social network out of the box” (which is already on the BuddyPress.org homepage)
I’d highly recommend reading the Getting started pages on the codex https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/ go to page links on the right sidebar and read them
`For instance what is the difference between a forum and a post. They look exactly alike in the dashboard.`
As BuddyPress is an extension of WordPress, and is designed for WP users, is defining Blog Post and Forum Post necessary? I think your concern may be better at WordPress.org/forums as BuddyPress doesn’t define the word themselves, WordPress does.
`You can’t start a group because there are no topics.`
Are you using a plugin that makes topics a prequisite for starting a group? That’s not the way it works out of the box from my experience.
`Wouldn’t it be nice to have a little welcome page saying, “Here’s how to set up your buddypress forums. First you create a few groups. Then add topics to each group. You can’t add this until you add that so start with this.
I just want an overview so that I can know if I’m doing something wrong or if there is a problem with the software when I can’t add a forum or don’t see my topic.`
Seems you’ve already figured it out. As an open source project, You can contribute back what you learn by creating a codex article. https://codex.buddypress.org/ 
“MySQL server has gone away” is a pretty important error which must be affecting several things, even if it’s not the root cause of this issue. The connection to your database is being dropped, or lost, for some reason.
I do not know too much about configuring MySQL servers. The relevant documentation is http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/gone-away.html — I’d hope that your host would have sufficient technical knowledge to better understand approaches to fix the problem (it’s likely to be a configuration change done on the server setup, rather than your WordPress install).
digging into the error log scared me 
I replicated the bug, and these are the last few lines from the error log:

@tina have you ever wondered why they can’t get Akismet to block the spammers like it does on WordPress? And even more thought provoking is how does this site block spammers so well but none of us regular users can manage a normal BP install without being overtaken by spam? After all the hard work to get BP looking nice, it’s a waste due to issues like this. 
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 canvas child 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
`
Then, in each of 16 files, you’d like to change the BP Templates’ page title’s header tag from `
` or `
` to `
`, just watch out when you do this in the /activity/index.php page.
Save files.
Nope, didn’t help. Still being bombarded by spam. About ready to ditch Buddypress altogether and go back to regular WordPress site. *sigh*
The plugin has not been updated for almost a year, so not compatible with BP 1.5.5.
Best bet is to post at plugin’s forums at https://buddypress.org/community/groups/rs-buddypress-activity-refresh/forum/ or https://wordpress.org/tags/rs-buddypress-activity-refresh?forum_id=10 but it doesn’t look like the developer is responding at all.
Activation key is generate key by wordpress and sended to the email of registred member. The new member must activate his account by clicking in the activation link ( the link contain the activation key)
Activation is used to detect if the email exist and blocking multiple registration by the same email ( spammer), and many others advantage ….
rename the folder of your current theme, if not work ,
try to reset the theme from database : http://docs.appthemes.com/tutorials/how-to-change-wordpress-themes-directly-from-the-database/
Or
try rest all plugins from databse
UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = ” WHERE option_name = ‘active_plugins’;

Thank you very much. I’m in my first year at The Art Institute so getting into the depths of PHP in wordpress is new to me, PHP is new to me. Thank you for your help.
Any suggestions on how to get more acquainted with the back end of WordPress?

That is a theme issue, so you should contact theme authors.
An alternative would be to use a WP theme and install the BP Template Pack plugin then go through Appearance > BP compatibility process. We’ve “template-packed” a number of WP themes, check out if that WP theme is listed near end of https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
Following link shows you the steps of the BP template pack – compatibility process. Near the bottom of the link, you’ll find the list of WP theme’s we’ve “template-packed” so far. Check if your WP theme is listed there. https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
