@rossagrant I’ve seen that in trunk, we have a ticket somewhere.
I’m experiencing what @Marcus is describing. My background color, image, and website width are coming through to the page edit screen. There is no where else I’ve found that this is carrying over to. Everything else so far is great. Running 3.3 and 1.5.2.
Hi Ross, have you tried deleting BP_USE_WP_ADMIN_BAR from your WP 3.3 install?
Something like this https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-sliding-login-panel/
Not sure if it works with latest version WordPress 3.3
This issue is driving us bonkers – has anyone come up with a solution please?
It all started when we moved our site (www.eradar.eu) to its own server (accessed thru cPanel). We have lost all forums and when another group is created it creates multiple groups rather than just 1 (even though the unique ID numbers are the same) – everything was working fine with our previous shared server.
I’m beginning to think it is a server side issue……
Some observations
1. Not a plugin issue – all have been tried and tested
2. Not a theme issue – was all working fine under the theme (Custom Community)
3. We are using all latest editions of WordPress, BuddyPress and BBPress…
4. We’ve followed discussion threads and deleted unique forum ids in MyPhp.
Absolutely no idea what to do next……
Please help
Hey Boone,
I use (BP_USE_WP_ADMIN_BAR) and am getting MASSIVE avatars in the toolbar when a person hasn’t uploaded an image and the avatar defaults to mystery man. (doesn’t seem to resize properly)
This happens in a not so big way with gravatars too.
Do I put a bug i, or are you guys aware of this?
Another thing worth noting, the default BP theme creates problems when viewing add new posts/pages/etc. pages.
This is probably because theme CSS is being loaded admin-side – submitted a bug – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3849
Hmmm… just did a clean install of WP 3.3 and Buddypress 1.5.1 and am getting blank pages in the Admin area. Anyone else?
Great, thanks for the heads up!
Great job guys!!!!!, I noticed the toolbar too 
, but one thing: if we don’t have sufficient permissions to access to the New Post Page and the Comments Moderation Page, would be better if we don’t see those links in the toolbar? 
Thank you for the update @boonebgorges. I just got the upgrade email from wordpress and wanted to check before applying it. Thank you all for the quick announcement of it’s compatibility and expected turn around for the maintenance build. Truly a group of professionals! Thanks to everyone at Buddypress!
Yeah, noticed our new buddybar/adminbar now called Toolbar
We’re running WordPress 3.3 here at BuddyPress.org, and also running the 1.5.2 pre-release. Will be working out kinks to get it packaged up asap.
Thanks for letting us know.
UPD: BTW, WP3.3 is already available for autoupdating from admin area.
Just to clarify, when you say regular WordPress navigation menu, do you mean your theme’s main navigation menu which should have custom navigation menus or the WordPress Admin Bar? Or do you want something like tutorial at http://www.michaelkuhlmann.com/tutorials/customizing-admin-bar/
You can make your WordPress theme compatible with BuddyPress by installing and activating the BP Template Pack plugin. After which, you’ll need to go through the BP Compatibility Process – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
I’m glad you guys share my sense of humor and a taste of serious web programming.
but wait, I would like to point another thing on this webpage itself. Why every topic_post_time_since carries “ago” twice.
I know buddypress is a great open source software and people like me can contribute towards its development. I have myself reported problems from time to time – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3758
I just wanted to get my point across and I am glad people are listening. Also Buddypress.org is probably the largest or one of largest sites running buddypress. Performance and usability issues at this website sends a negative signal.
This is a buddypress/wordpress issue. If you don’t believe me just see the source code for this page – Towards the end of the source code you’ll find something like this –
Generated in 3.178 seconds. (473 q)
That simply means this webpage needed 473 database queries to show you a few members and posts. If this is the situation with the official buddypress website running on latest hitech servers, fully optimized and cached, probably also using somekind of a CDN what else do you expect from the software itself?
1. To make your WordPress theme compatible with BuddyPress, install and activate the BuddyPress Template Pack plugin and go through the BP Compatibility process – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
2. As for Wishlist or S2Member, there’s been positive and negative feedback on both [EDIT – S2Member specifically notes support for BuddyPress which you should take into consideration]. You should contact vendors of both plugins about planned/scheduled plugins’ update for compatibility with upcoming WP 3.3 (prob this coming week – there are major changes) as well as upcoming BuddyPress version. Then check out respective plugins’ forums and see which has more issues reported and which provides more support.
