`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/
Have you registered the buttons in your theme?
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/bp-themes/bp-default/functions.php#L125
`add_action( ‘bp_group_header_actions’, ‘bp_group_join_button’, 5 );`
nothing yet asked him almost 3 days ago but didn’t get a reply here: http://buddydev.com/forums/topic/coupld-of-bugs-with-bp-mag-classic. so i had nothing better to do then looking into it myself, and I found this problem. read some tutorials about php codes. (else if) tried some different ways to implement it all failed.
just wondering if the code looks okay like that. so i can search for the issue somewhere else. i will take a look in the bp default templates didn’t do that yet thanks.
I was also afraid since it works on his bp mag classic demo its got nothing to do with the theme. and its once again an issue with my wordpress installation or host.
guys i already posted the job to find a freelancer… honestly this is way above my level and I don’t have time to work on this 
i am not a programmer by the way, i am an accountant! having learned to create wordpress sites and install plugins, I have come far.
dear supporter
could you give me the idea for this above question?
thanks/Kunthea
Set which blog ID BuddyPress will run on if not on main site – add following to your bp-custom.php file:
`define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, $blog_id );`
where you replace $blog_id with the blog ID number of subdomain/subdirectory site of your multisite installation – https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/changing-internal-configuration-settings/
As for themes – you can use a WordPress theme then install the BP Template Pack plugin and go through the BP Compatiblity process. Check if your WP theme has been “template-packed” in the list near bottom of this page https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
Thanks for the reply sniper kitten (I like your avatar). I ended up installing a fresh copy of wordpress, getting multi-user going and then adding buddy press just to play around with everything. It seems have a lot of really great functionality. I am excited about the possibilities but I have run into one or two issues that give me pause. Perhaps you could offer a bit more sage advice?
I noticed that the buddy press install seems to effect only my root site with the other sub domain sites being unaffected. Do you know of a way for buddy press to take effect on one of the sub domain sites instead of the root?
The reason I ask is that I’d like for people to not land on the buddy press site upon trying to access my domain url. Instead I want visitors to my domain to land on a different wordpress site running a different theme.
This might be possible in different ways. I considered just doing two totally different installs and using the first as my landing page and the second (with a different domain) as the buddy press site. This won’t work however, because I need to share users between the two sites and I think if they were in the same network that would be a lot easier.
The second idea I had was if I could somehow fool the user’s browser into going to a subdomain site when the domain was entered into the browser URL field. That, of course, brings up the issue of how people would access the buddy press site at all.
Any thoughts on how this might be done?

You will need something like BP Group Management for easier management.
If you want to limit group creation to admin, go to BuddyPress > Setting in your dashboard and check “Restrict group creation to Site Admins?”. You may also try BuddyPress Restrict Group Creation & add some rules so members can’t create a group until they reach the requirements
If you have a child theme of bp-default theme, the simple way would be to copy over:
a) https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.4/bp-themes/bp-default/groups/create.php
to wp-content/themes/YourChildThemeFolder/groups/create.php
– above line 90 per linked file add “
– below line 106 per linked file add “
b) https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.4/bp-themes/bp-default/groups/single/admin.php
to wp-content/themes/YourChildThemeFolder/groups/single/admin.php
– above line 69 per linked file add “
– below line 87 per linked file add “
Note that if you as Site/Super Admin don’t even want to create a hidden or private group yourself, then delete lines 90-106 from create.php and delete lines 69-87 from admin.php
