BuddyPress.org

bbPress (any version) is a forum, right? Just like what we’re using to talk over now.

BuddyPress is a social network layer for your WordPress site. The pictures on the front page list its features https://buddypress.org/

1. BuddyPress and bbPress have the same Lead Developer, https://buddypress.org/community/members/johnjamesjacoby/activity/just-me/

2. Current BuddyPress version uses own version of bbPress plugin for Group Forums and at the same time, can use bbPress plugin for Sitewide Forums. https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/

3. In upcoming BuddyPress 1.6, Group Forums will be refactored to use bbPress plugin https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3598

bbPress *heart* BuddyPress

This is a little confusing….

Did you install wordpress and buddypress yourself ‘via ftp’ or did you use a webhost’s automated system and how far did you get with wordpress before these errors occured? It might be easier to re-install wordpress from scratch manually….

Renaming the folder would disable buddypress so that shouldn’t be a factor, suggesting this is not a buddypress problem. Have you installed any ‘buddypress’ plugins and what wordpress plugins have you installed? Are you sure these are all compatible with your versions of bp/wp ( https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/plugin-compatibility/ ) .

To get back into your wordpress installation you could try https://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F

Did you go through the theme compatibility process for buddypress: https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/ ?

Copy over activity-loop.php to your bp-default child theme https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.4/bp-themes/bp-default/activity/activity-loop.php

change this line
“

to
“

== I want to replace the buddypress search box from top header ==

If you have a bp-default child theme, copy over header.php from bp-default theme https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.4/bp-themes/bp-default/header.php
Then delete lines 25-44 from header.php per link I gave and move those lines over where you want it.

== Is there a buddypress 1.5 compatible plugin that manages banneradds? ==

You could create widget areas then just add the sidebar areas where you want them to show up in theme, see how to http://justintadlock.com/archives/2010/11/08/sidebars-in-wordpress

== I’d need to show the login form to all the users that get to the BP site. Only on that one. ==

Copy code from bp-default’s sidebar.php to your bp-default child theme or custom BP theme. https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.4/bp-themes/bp-default/sidebar.php

It’s a known issue and will be addressed soon. https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3908 Thank you for you patience.

Good for you! Marking this as resolved.

Not all hosts allow you to increase memory that way. Some do not allow it at all!

To get into your admin you could use ftp ( or your web-host’s control panel ) to disable some plugins by renaming the directory/folder(s) – ie:- /wp-content/plugins/theplugin/ – Some plugins use a lot of memory.

If the theme you are using has lot’s of options it could also be quite memory hungry.

I find the check memory allocation limit feature of https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-system-health/ ( screenshots ) useful to find out how much memory WP thinks it has. There are other alternatives though…

Does this help?

It explains in the error message. The BuddyPress plugin folder needs to be “buddypress”, yours seems to be called “buddypress1”

p.s. You will want to deactivate the plugin, rename the folder, then re-activate, otherwise you’ll get more WordPress errors about the plugin being missing

@jaredvd – When i attempted to create a wiki awhile ago using a modified version of wiki lite I used the voodoopress guide (http://voodoopress.com/how-to-post-from-your-front-end-with-no-plugin/) and then changed the description textarea to use the wp_editor (https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_editor to get a front-end ‘create article’ page.

Just make sure you change the ‘post_type’ to incsub_wiki to turn the articles into wikis.
You will also probably want to wrap the form with a is_loggedin conditional.

@dsg257 by Weaver theme, are you using the free version from WP Theme Repository https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/weaver or the premium version?

== I think this was deleted before – if there is a problem with my post, please do let me know. ==

Nope. Nobody deleted same topic you posted at the Jobs Board Forums https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/forum/topic/need-help-with-customizing/

You could also post at http://jobs.wordpress.net/

What have you done with it?

It is in the bp-default header.php: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.4/bp-themes/bp-default/header.php#L25

Group forums will be using bbPress 2+ the plugin pretty soon https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3598

This is not quite a BuddyPress issue. Please post at bbPress forums or WordPress forums where you’d have better feedback/responses
