There are missing files in your installation. Deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and change to bp-default theme, and see if the issue is corrected. If so, then it could be that if you’re using a WP theme and installed BP Template Pack, but not all BP template files were transferred to your active WP theme. Go to theme folder in server and check if these 13 files in 6 different folders have been transferred

== I have 20+ blogs written that have been shared all over the internet via default permalinks. ==

WP/BP versions? Are all those 20 blogs in a multisite installation or in single WP’s?

== Is there ANY way to override this or to set the custom structure so that it is exactly the same as the default? Any help would be great!! ==

It all depends on the configuration of your blogs – MS or single, but there are ways to go about this.

On multisite installation, just create another site e.g. http://mainsite.com/newsite where you can define BuddyPress and set permalinks to other than default.

On single WP, e,g, http://example.com, I would create a physical subdomain http://buddypress.example.com/ install WP at root using the same database as the example.com site but with a different prefix and share userbase — backup DB first before attempting this.

I would probably just use wp-pagenavi, which I’ve been using on wordpress sites for years now – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-pagenavi/. Otherwise there are a host of possibilities. You’re using a

I’m wondering about the same thing. So far, I had no luck finding any workable solution.

While I’m reasonably familiar with WordPress, BuddyPress is still a mystery to me, namely, I have no clue (yet) on how to post an “activity” from within a BuddyPress plugin. The trick here, as I see it, is somehow exposing an API that allows remote sites to insert an “activity” when a button is pressed. Now this is something I know how to do using WP’s standard XML-RPC API for posts/pages/comments and so forth. BuddyPress, however, seems to have a completely different taxonomy, and none of those calls are exposed by WP’s API. Someone has a semi-abandoned project to create a XML-RPC API for BuddyPress, but it was all of a sudden abandoned a few weeks ago, the author claiming to have been victim of hackers, and deleting all documentation, examples, and warning plugin users that he wouldn’t support BP any longer.

Hi, this is really simple to build.

1. you need to have post thumbnail for each video post that you add. https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_post_thumbnail
2. you can then create a category with an name for example ” hip hop “. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=how+to+add+categories+wordpress&aq=0m&oq=add+categories+word
3. every time you add a hip hop video post, you need to select the hip hop as category for that post.

now you need to modify you’r archive.php file so that it accepts post thumbnails,here is an example ….

<div id="content">
<div class="padder">

<div class="page" id="blog-archives">
<h3 class="my-title"></h3>

<div class=&quot;post&quot; id=&quot;post-">
<div class="post-content">

<?php
if (
function_exists('the_post_thumbnail') &&
current_theme_supports("post-thumbnails") &&
has_post_thumbnail()
) :
?>
<a href=&quot;" title="">
</a>

<h2 class="posttitle"><a href=&quot;" rel="bookmark" title=" "></a></h2>

</div>

</div>

<h2 class="center"></h2>

</div>
<div id="clear"></div>
<div class="navigation">

<div class="alignright"></div>
<div class="alignleft"></div>

</div>

</div><!-- .padder -->
</div><!-- #content -->

now all you need to do is style it and create a link that links to your category,in your case it would be something like http://www.yoursite.com/category/hip-hop

I hope this helps.Sorry but I really don’t have much time at this moment to go into details,I’m working on a brand new community for lovethistune,soon as I finish it then I’ll post this theme with the theme framework that I’m also currently working on for download at http://www.uloga.net

LTT’S Current theme is for BP testing only.

This issue has been brought up in the past.

You can disable the ability to use the activity stream to reply to forum posts by doing the following:

– Login to your WordPress install.
– Navigate to “BuddyPress > General Settings”.
– Under “Disable activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts?”, select “Yes” and save.

There is currently no other solution to sync activity replies to forum topics yet.

@gcortex – Uninstalling the forums component and removing the forums tab from the header are two different things.

If you want to uninstall the forums, login to your WordPress install and navigate to “BuddyPress > Component Setup”. Under “bbPress Forums”, select “Disabled” and then save the settings. Forums should no longer be enabled.

If you want to remove the forums tab from your header, since you’re using the Fishbook theme, you should edit the header of the Fishbook theme.

any reason you’re not just using the standard wp_insert_user() function? what does buddypress do that’s different than the standard wordpress signup?

I’m curious because I’m in the process of doing the same thing as the OP (although was planning on just using the default wordpress functionality, which I have working for my system – but the next step is to migrate the code so that it uses buddypress as well)…

Hmm unfortunately, that still did not work. Thanks for all your help thus far guys. Here is how my problem originated:

I recently transferred my site from the default ”/wordpress/” sub directory to my root directory. Everything works fine in BuddyPress except for the LOGOUT and LOGIN menu options from the BuddyPress menu bar (up at the top).

Upon looking at the URL that the logout and login tries to redirect to (in the tag), it still thinks it is in the ”/wordpress” subdirectory and the thus results in a Error 404 – Page Not Found problem.

I’ve search various ways to do this but people have either not have found a solution or seem to not have posted it. I originally thought I could just use the ‘Add All Nav Links to Admin Bar’ plugin (https://buddypress.org/community/groups/add-all-nav-links-to-bp-adminbar/) and hide the Login and Sign Up options but unfortunately the “Log Out” still remains since it is under the ‘My Account’.

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

== Eveyrytime I create a new site (I’m running multisites on WordPress) Buddypress creates a tab named Community. ==

This is not default behavior. Causes for this may be
– you’re using a theme that generates a community tab – change to bp-default theme to see difference, or
– you installed WP/BP in subdirectory of site named community, or
– you have WP multisite and defined BP in subsite named community.

== “Sorry, Not Found, Error 404 ==

https://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/navigation-links-return-404-errors/

== Can anyone tell me how to fix this? ==

Change theme to bp-default and deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and see if your site is working like default installation like http://testbp.org

Plus you can look over sites at http://www.bpinspire.com/ or you can check out the fishbook theme https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/fishbook-buddypress-buddypack

You’re correct. If you turned on WordPress’ network functionality, then BP will reside in the new Network Admin section.

BP plugins need to be updated in order to account for the Network Admin section in WP 3.1.

This issue hasn’t been addressed yet. See:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3099

It’s probably best to keep backups in the meantime.

So, just a few hours ago, Boone just added a ticket with patch (https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3205) to make this very easy. If any of you could go test this, then add any feedback, that would be great. The patch is for 1.3, but you should be able to make it work on 1.2.x.

Thanks Virtuali but the Logout menu was still there and at the bottom of the site I saw this message

Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, ‘my_alter_bp_adminbar’ was given in /home/content/62/7486962/html/wordpress/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 395

Please advise!

Yes, it’s a known bbPress bug; https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1486

I also had the same problem as @dwwilkin.

I enable the Wp_debug and found that when buddypress installing the forum it’s unable to create a table name wp_bb_post. So whenever someone try to open the open the post’s under topic it returns WPDB error that $bbdb->posts table not found.

I looked at bb-adminincludesdefaults.bb-schema.php for the crate table command. I found at line 40, the post table use ‘FULLTEXT KEY’ which is only supported by ‘MYISAM’.

This is the original query:

$bb_queries = “CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `$bbdb->posts` (
`post_id` bigint(20) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`forum_id` int(10) NOT NULL default 1,
`topic_id` bigint(20) NOT NULL default 1,
`poster_id` int(10) NOT NULL default 0,
`post_text` text NOT NULL,
`post_time` datetime NOT NULL default ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00’,
`poster_ip` varchar(15) NOT NULL default ”,
`post_status` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default 0,
`post_position` bigint(20) NOT NULL default 0,
PRIMARY KEY (`post_id`),
KEY `topic_time` (`topic_id`, `post_time`),
KEY `poster_time` (`poster_id`, `post_time`),
KEY `post_time` (`post_time`),
FULLTEXT KEY `post_text` (`post_text`)
) TYPE = MYISAM;”;

This query is returning error ion MySQL 5. So, I change the last line of the query to;

‘) ENGINE = MYISAM’

And it works. Now I’m able to create post under any topic.

So in summary simplest fix for the issue is:

1. Create a table on your wordpress database using following query

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `wp_bb_posts` (
`post_id` bigint(20) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`forum_id` int(10) NOT NULL default 1,
`topic_id` bigint(20) NOT NULL default 1,
`poster_id` int(10) NOT NULL default 0,
`post_text` text NOT NULL,
`post_time` datetime NOT NULL default ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00’,
`poster_ip` varchar(15) NOT NULL default ”,
`post_status` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default 0,
`post_position` bigint(20) NOT NULL default 0,
PRIMARY KEY (`post_id`),
KEY `topic_time` (`topic_id`, `post_time`),
KEY `poster_time` (`poster_id`, `post_time`),
KEY `post_time` (`post_time`),
FULLTEXT KEY `post_text` (`post_text`)
) ENGINE = MYISAM;

2. Refresh the forum topic page in front-end.

Any solution to this? I’m having this problem now after I moved from /wordpress subdirectory to root.

For more assistance, please post your query at the WP.org forums – https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting

There are different approaches to what you want to do which includes deciding whether you will allow your users to post from the backend or to post always from the front end. My approach would be to use EventPress plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/eventpress/ along with with http://buddydev.com/plugins/eventpress-gallery/ which requires the premium BP Gallery plugin http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-gallery/ which has images, audio, video galleries. Perhaps others would like to share what their approaches would be.

You can also use the Widget Logic plugin with the conditional statements listed here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buddypress-and-widget-logic.

The easiest way to enact this is to exclude all component groups.

Quickest solution would be to join Buddydev and implement the ‘Global Forum’ plugin – http://buddydev.com/plugins/global-forums/

You can see it in use on Bravesh’s own forum – http://buddydev.com/forums/

I personally prefer forums which link to groups, since this avoids duplication of topics. The other half-way solution would be to use ‘buddypress-group-forum-extras’, https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-forum-extras/ – which would enable you to set up a group for each general forum type (i.e. support questions, introduce yourself, general chat), then pin these to remain permanently at the top of the ‘Forum Index’.
