No — BuddyPress is just a WordPress plugin, so if you disable user registration, it’s off, everywhere. User accounts are shared across all plugins.

@alanchrishughes – the plugin (Buddypress template pack) is simply a utility tool, it’s not required.

What does it do? From what i gather from your comment above, you tried to copy the template folders from Tpack, but if you look inside your theme, the folders are actually empty, which is why it’s not working The plugin copies the folders from the bp-default theme (inside the buddypress plugin)

So – you either need to turn on (activate) template pack and go through the configure stuff (once done you can deactivate the template pack) or, copy over the files manually from within plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/dp-default

If you choose to not keep the template pack active, you may also need to copy over the functions into your themes functions.php (https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/bp-template-pack/trunk/bpt-functions.php) as it has some almost required stuff (like registering the “add friends” buttons)

BP Multi Network Plugin developer/s usually check https://wordpress.org/tags/bp-multi-network so do post there as well.

i am about to try this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stop-spammer-registrations-plugin/
– it looks very good. anyone tried it with BP yet?

The above error message normally means that wordpress only has 32 mb of memory available and it needs more.

There are various technques for increasing memory available but some hosts don’t allow those methods to be used and require a different hosting plan.

If that isn’t practical it is possible to run wordpress with less memory if you cut back on plugins, use a theme that doesn’t eat up memory, and only upload very small pictures etc…. There are various plugins around that can help you work out what is eating ram

I used to find it hard to run wordpress with 32 meg of memory, let alone buddypress…

1024 bytes in a KB,
1024KB in a MB
Thus: 1024*1024*32 = 33554432 bytes in 32MB

Based on the HTML structure of your theme, you’d need to use the first option, i.e., change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your Wikiasi theme folder in server during the compatibility process.

If you’ve previously changed any of the BP template files in your theme folder, replace all of them for a clean slate by deleting the 6 BP folders in server – /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

@marciavincent Please post this question in WP forums and tag it elbee-elgee https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates

I’ll leave the Ajax question to someone else who actually understands ajax stuff.

2. Would it be possible to make a app that notifies you when someone mentions you, comments on your status, ect kinda like facebooks app i have a andromo app going

Native mobile apps are entirely possible to do — but will require some heavy development work. BuddyPress wasn’t built with mobile apps in mind as it started before the “mobile craze” went off. So, it really depends on your definition of possible.

If your happy with a Web App though, their are afew plugins, such as @modemloopers BP Mobile https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-mobile/

Have you tried editing the .htaccess file? Make a copy of the current .htaccess then add the below code between the lines and save it to the .htaccess :

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

Options -Indexes

How can i get Apache rewrite module enable? or check if it is already enabled, because i am getting the same problem, i can activate the plugin but when i get to the end of the instsllation wizard of buddy press , crashes my wordpress and i canot access it anymore , but when i delete the buddypress of /plugins ot get back to normal … Im sorry but i am portuguese

@lairbear spam is an issue that is almost impossible to control, even the big proprietary social networks have a huge issue with spam – and they have alot of money to spend on controlling it. (I’m very popular with all of the really, really hot ladies on Facebook… lol)

In BuddyPress 1.6 their will be some anti-spam tools for the activity feed built-in that will hook into Akismet (http://akismet.com) to help control it, and while it has cut it down by alot on my test sites using it, nothing can beat manual HUMAN moderation. (Related ticket: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3660)

Theirs also afew plugins that add captchas to the registration page, to kick them out before their even in… oh, and this article is pretty comprehensive – http://wp.tutsplus.com/tutorials/security/best-practices-for-preventing-buddypress-spam-user-registrations/

You don’t need to put the shortcode in the page template. Read https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/2/ again, and look at the screenshot with showing the “bbPress Settings” page.

You’ll need to change the “Archive Slugs – Forums base” from “forums” to something else. The WordPress page called “forums” (which BuddyPress uses for the Forums Directory) is stomping over bbPress’ attempt to claim the “forums” URL).

You can indeed only pass one ‘scope’ parameter to bp_has_activities. We have a ticket on trac for this enhancement to be added: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3201

On a very very quick look, I can’t see a way of achieving this manually in the interim, short of filtering/writing your own SQL for BP_Activity_Activity::get().

You could wrap it in “is_user_logged_in” tags: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_user_logged_in

It’s most probably caused by the hack which should be taken seriously. If you prefer, get a second opinion by posting at the WP forums and ask if you’ve been hacked https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting Know that I prefer to be wrong about the hack, but it’s there.

if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘activity’ ) . ‘&scope=friends&scope=just-me’ ) ) :

*note: Just woke up. Still tired. Probably put something in the wrong spot… please add the code to your site carefully incase everything blows up.

EDIT: Here is a direct link to the list of scopes in trunk if your interested in doing some extra reading.

Video embed is the least of your worries. Just looked at the source code of your webpage, looks like you’ve been hacked,

There are two iFeature themes – one free (WP Theme Repo) and the other premium (Other WP Themes) – I’ve helped out in this area. Look at the bottom of this page https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/ for the link to the theme you’re making compatible with BP
