there is no relation to wp.com or wordpress.com and buddypress other then the fact they are built on the same basic infrastructure of wordpress which is available at wordpress.org. but you cannot be using buddypress on a wordpress.com website.

I went to Commons in a Box, which is a giant plug-in for WordPress that includes BuddyPress (and many other plug-ins) and allows me to create a multi-site installation with a blog/site for each workgroup I wanted to integrate. Now that the new release of BuddyPress seems to work with most themes that weren’t designed to be specifically BuddyPress-compatible, P2 Theme just seems to work.
The only issue I have now is that the new P2 Theme seems to have broken the P2-Check-In plugin as I can no longer see the “I’m Here” button on the header. Otherwise, I’ve got most of what I needed working via Multi-Site and Commons in a Box.
Hey guys
The ‘posts’ that my members create are the most important aspect of my site. I’m successfully showing the most recent ‘posts’ by an author on their profile using even though it is out of date
What I need to do next is show one recent post by each author on our members home page, presumably within members-loop.php
Is there a way to get this most recent post here?
Many thanks,
Ian

Hey thanks for being a good sport. Sorry I felt inclined to show my sense of humor but I could not pass up the opportunity. On a serious note though, and I am sure you know that plugins are just functions with hooks that has required commented info at the top of the php file. That is really the only difference between a plugin and a function. I try to keep my custom functions in one file that I can deploy in most situations. I of course comment all the functions in case of hook changes etc., and if a hook changes then I comment out the function until I narrow down what needs to be recoded in regards to a hook. Not saying you don’t know this already or practice it, but maybe it will benefit others as we all go about harnessing the power of WordPress and BuddyPress. 🙂
Cheers!
There’s a plugin which needs to be updated for BP 1.7. Not sure when that’s going to be. https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-auto-group-join/
I cannot be the only one with this problem. I did a clean install, with only wordpress, buddypress and bbpress and everytime I click ‘yes’ the radio button will not stay checked ‘yes’. It sends an email to the people in the group saying ‘group details for the group “xxxxx” were updated:
But when changes are made to the group nothing is emailed. There is no way I am the only one, can someone verify that this thing actually works?
Thanks
I’m using WordPress 3.5.1 and Headway 3.4.11 with a child theme.
Everything was working fine until I started to create templates in Headway to reuse for my page.
Nothing from Buddypress shows up now. The rest of the site is ok, though. I used the Buddypress default theme that came with the plugin and it works okay, but when I go back to my Child theme, nothing shows up again. I turned off all plugins and sill nothing. I deleted the templates and still nothing. I recreated the pages and still nothing.
I uninstalled Buddypress and I get these warnings:
Warning: ksort() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /mysite.com/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-template-loader.php on line 167

If you’ve found a case where theme compatibility breaks stuff, please submit a bug report onto https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org
Ok, the link function doesn’t work. Here’s a try without the link function.

Hi. Suddenly my buddypress install redirects to mysite.com/members/blogs/create
I have tried disabling all other plugins to no avail.
I have no idea why it happens, but i found another thread about the same here, although it doesn’t offer any solution
Any suggestion what to do?

I followed the instructions … Buddypress now works flawlessly. All three problems I had were solved.
Music to my ears 🙂 Thank you for following instructions.
But the slider of the theme stopped working, as expected. .. To change somehow the version of the jquery that my theme uses isn’t an option?
There are alternatives to your slider which should work with current WP standards. Check out the ones updated in 2013 -> https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/slider
You need to make sure that your theme is updated to the latest WordPress version including jQuery, otherwise you’d be stuck in an old WordPress version which could be buggy and/or a security risk. In addition plugins, like BuddyPress and bbPress, use the latest jQuery version included in current WordPress, so if you use older version, things could get very bumpy.
To keep theme updated, install the Theme Check plugin and run it in Appearance > Theme Check with your theme. If you find any REQUIRED or WARNING results, you need to address that in your theme right away. RECOMMENDED results are just that, recommendations which you might want to address but not that important or necessary. Good luck.
Hey guys, I’m looking remove the sidebar on a few pages of Buddypress and I’m having a difficult time. I’m currently using the “Catch-box” wordpress theme.
For instance, say I wanted the specific member pages NOT to have a sidebar. What I’m currently doing is modifying the Catch-Box-Directory/buddypress/members/index.php and Catch-Box-Directory/buddypress/members/single/home.php files to exclude the “<?php get_sidebar( ‘buddypress’ ); ?>” code.
While that does, in fact, get rid of the sidebar, it also dramatically messes with the page formatting. My question is, what am I missing? Is there an easier way to go about fixing this?
I did a forum search and found that @mercime did a post (http://buddypress.org/support/topic/resolved-fixing-alignment-problems-on-pages-using-buddypress-catch-box-themecath/#post-140906) to make the catch-box theme compatible with BuddyPress. I believe the solution to my problem could lie within this post however I was wondering if I am reading this post right. From what it looks like I’m supposed to replace a couple of dots with another couple of dots..? Is that correct? Did the forum delete the code from the post or am I missing something?
I any case I would truly appreciate any guidance or direction. I’m feeling a little crushed at the moment as I’ve spent probably 6+ hours trying to do a seemingly easy task. I just want a few select buddypress pages (like the register page and the member’s pages) to not have a sidebar.
@joe35 download a copy of your theme to your hard drive. Then revise the copy in server: remove the call to jquery 1.4.2 in either the header.php file or enqueued in the functions.php of the theme. Know that by doing this, some behaviors expected in the old theme might be affected, or they may not. Then test your theme with BuddyPress.
If this doesn’t work, then you might have to look for another WP theme which is updated for current WP 3.5.1 at the very least https://wordpress.org/themes/

So, I just installed everything again in my host and the error continues. New database, and only wordpress + buddypress, latest version of both.
Any help?
Could have been any (or all) of the following plugins:
BP Group Documents (ancient, don’t think I can find it online again)
BP Unread Posts https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-unread-posts/ (also obsolete)
U BuddyPress Forum Attachment http://urlless.com/u-buddypress-forum-attachment/
I haven’t reactivated any of these 3 and am about to delete them.
It appears a case of too eager to upgrade without properly checking existing potential conflicts. Too much haste and not enough care in my excitement about 1.7 – my bad. Thanks for your support Paul.
Does anyone know of a simple “listings” plugin i can use as a classifieds ads system, that is combatible with buddypress?
I only want to be able to show a title, description, price. And it to be linked to the buddypress user or group? No payment methods or anything fancy. Just a list.
Im a php programmer but have no experience or never have created a wordpress plugin, never mind on that works with buddypress so not sure how much work is involved?
Just cant belive there isnt one? There was one that is still availble but unfortunatly people report it doesnt work after BP1.2 and that was buddypress-classifieds.
Any help would be appriciated.

Hi @bp-help
Thank you for answering, as I told Im not a speciallist, just a pharmacist that learned a bit of html/php/mysql alone. A beginner.
I tryed again this thing in two webserver that we have, first dedicated localweb and second hostgator shared. The dedicated stopped 5 minutes and came back. Shared one stopped for 20 minutes, and stoped 2 others sites in the same server, one wordpress and another magento based.
Yesterday and today we received from hosting messages of “high memory usage by…”
I searched on Google and I found some ways/tips to avoid this, some wordpress users seems to have same problem. It´s seems to be the script that return the page that consume memory with each request. Not a simple $get/$post.
If anyone is having the same problem and have a solution. I´d appreciate.
Sorry about the bad english, I´m not a native speaker.
Although Yoast’s WordPress SEO works perfectly with WordPress, it isn’t currently compatible with BuddyPress. I suggest you try a plugin such as SeoPress. There are some problems with that plugin (lacking 404 page support, registration page title buggy, incompatible Friends component etc) but on the whole it is about the best option on the market at the moment.
