BuddyPress.org

gotcha not to try and make you explain why or anything since i probably wouldn’t understand the answer anyway but a LOT of wordpress sites do use JetPack i pretty much consider it a prerequisite for any site that wants traffic.

Thanks for all your hard work in the good fight against spammers and sploggers though!

You willl find hundreds of answers to this question, because what you want to customize is the wordpress 3.3+ Toolbar.
i.e here: http://wp.smashingmagazine.com/2012/03/01/inside-the-wordpress-toolbar/

You’re using form actions incorrectly. The form `action` is intended to be a URL, not a PHP callback. You’ll need to add your server-side processor to a separate function, ideally in a separate file from the screen function. Something like:

`
function bbg_handle_department_join() {
if ( isset( $_POST[‘department-request-submit’] ) ) {
$submitted_departments = $_POST[‘select_departments’];
// do something with the items
}
add_action( ‘bp_actions’, ‘bbg_handle_department_join’ );
`

I also urge you to implement some security checks. At minimum, use a nonce as well as an appropriate `current_user_can()` check. See https://markjaquith.wordpress.com/2006/06/02/wordpress-203-nonces/ for a primer on nonces in WordPress.

I had a similar problem when I upgraded yesterday.

Does this in your functions.php or bp-custom.php help?

`add_action(‘get_header’, ‘my_filter_head’);

function my_filter_head() {
remove_action(‘wp_head’, ‘_admin_bar_bump_cb’);
}`

Why it wasn’t a problem before is another question….

I noticed the henrywright-1 – it hasn’t always been this way. I’m not 100% sure but I think the user database from wordpress.com and wordpress.org was merged with me taking the “-1” username. That is no better than a guess but I can’t think how else the -1 was appended

To help with your problem – if you log into the wordpress dashboard (wp-admin), go to Users > All users. You should see a list of every user that has signed up via BuddyPress. You can perform delete actions on the users you’d like to remove.

You do not need the template pack plugin anymore. If your getting duplicate activity post then its still not displaying properly. Contact the theme author and request they restructure the theme based on WordPress template structures. They need to adhere to the standards of how WordPress themes are created for theme compatibility to work properly. If not I suggest finding a new theme that adheres to standard WordPress template hierarchy.

Try the wordpress twentytwelve and check  if All updates are being posted twice, i think problem in your theme.

On creating a new slug which isn’t unique, WordPress appends a “-1”.

You should never get to the point where you have duplicate usernames as the registration form has validation preventing registration if the sought after username already exists.

Aside from at the point of registration, do you have anything on your site (plugins or custom code) which allows users to change their username?

@lchief this is a WordPress Multisite issue which would be better served at https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite. Please make sure that your multisite installation along with domain mapping are working before installing BuddyPress.

@ridecbrcom-1 first, back up your current database. Then read this https://codex.wordpress.org/Restoring_Your_Database_From_Backup -> Using phpMyAdmin
