I note you have asked the exact same question on WP support, it is considered bad form to post across different forums with the same copied question however I do also note that you didn’t post the WP one til ~ 2 hours ago.
looking at that theme on WP tells me it hasn’t been updated since June of last year, BP has gone through some major updates since then, personally I wouldn’t bother with a theme that hasn’t been updated to keep abreast of new versions.
This exact same problem has been asked before of this theme on this forum in fact mercime you responded on it.
I find it incredulous sometimes that people can call a simple reworking of a few colours and a few rulesets here and there a theme, given that the theme looks like BP why not just use the current bp and modify it ourself to suit at least that way you would know it worked 
Well with WordPress though you have one file, for one page, one the_content, one category or post type query. The way Buddypress works though, to me it is as if it is magically generating pages out of thin air haha.
Or enable the network:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network
http://wpebooks.com/2010/09/how-to-enable-multisite-in-wordpress/
Then click the “add site” button to make /community/. Activate buddypress there. put your buddypress theme on that blog. Problem solved.
I had similar issues due to a lack of memory on my 1and1 shared hosting.
Buddypress, in single site mode, currently uses about 6.61 mb ( https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-system-health/ ).
I had to remove the suffusion theme, which if i remember correctly used about 4 or 5 mb, replacing it with a customised version of the default theme.
I also removed nextgen (about 2mb?) and other smaller non-essential plugins – am still looking for a replacement for wassup and all in one SEO which both use a lot of memory…
This enabled it to run without error. I still have problems importing images and upgrading plugins which easily use up memory.
Most BuddyPress plugins are available at WordPress plugin repository

Thank you for reading.
I tried to install BuddyPress as Plugin in my existing WordPress and its working. My problem is the theme is not compatible for BuddyPress. Even though there’s a BuddyPress Template Pack plugin, the theme is useless for BuddyPress. What I need right now is a Premium WordPress Theme compatible with BuddyPress.
I will remove the BuddyPress in my the other folder (community) and will look for the theme instead.
Thanks for the help!
I am pretty sick of people using this as a wordpress help forum.
Wordpress support is here please!
Google it. Look for a WP plugin. There are a ton of slider plugins. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=slider&sort=
Looks like cubepoints is the cause but not 100% sure. I do not see anything new after disable.
Can’t really compare the two ‘cuz they have completely different products. For instance, WPMUdev is geared mainly toward WordPress with BP as an afterthought, while BuddyDev caters pretty much exclusively to users of BP.
I can’t even locate the file that tells each page what activity it is calling. Would it really make it more clunky? WordPress itself is really straight forward and doesn’t seem clunky.
Solved my issue. It turned out to be related to directory permissions, and pilot error in not noticing my user avatar directory chmod changed to 755 when overwritten from a local > remote upload. Avatar directories have to be write-enabled for avatars to display… Hope this helps someone.
Scrap that. The fix is only superficial. It fixed user avatars, but destroyed every other type.
@berseck, glad you solved this on your own. “The problem was on the SQL statement I added invisible users and had one comma extra at the end of this info.” — Wouldn’t have thought of that just reading through your post
Hi thanks. I discovered that themes with the Nav bar along the top with the link to groups gets you to the Create Group site. However, there is still no link to create groups in the Bar along the very top of the page which has all the links and access to your Dashboard etc. You can check http://ordinaryjoe.ca/endthemadness/
Also when using the BP Compatibility Plugin on a standard wordpress site, it says you have to change the html structure of some template files such as blogs/index.php and groups/index.php etc. It is supposed to have this structure..
By default BuddyPress templates use this HTML structure:
[HEADER]
[FOOTER]
If BuddyPress pages are not aligned correctly then you will need to modify some of the templates to match your theme’s HTML structure. The best way to do this is to FTP to your theme’s files at:
/home/ordinar5/public_html/endthemadness/wp-content/themes/citizen-kane/
Can you advise on how to do this?
Thanks,
Don
Ok I got it working… its showing all my users
Only need to fix the search now that is going to a error page when should return to the main page
The problem was on the SQL statement I added invisible users and had one comma extra at the end of this info.
Thanks for those who at least readed this

I’ve been having vanishing avatar issues over the past couple of days, and a little research points to a possibility that in some instances BP is generating bad avatar paths, not relative to the root of the site. I found this, it provided a fix, and might help some of you: http://theandystratton.com/2010/buddypress-avatars-not-displaying-with-wordpress-3-0/
ehh.. still no fix for this??
WP3.0.4
BP 1.2.7
BP-default-child theme
And I have the same issue// seems more erratic though… some users display correctly
I’m having the same problem. I thought BuddyPress was working, but just found out that any time anyone else clicks Log In it just brings them back to the front page and does nothing.
I’m using the Platform Theme
I have GoDaddy Hosting
Plugins Installed:
Akismet
BuddyPress
BuddyPress Group Email Subscription
BuddyPress Links
Buddypress Sitewide activity widget
BuddyPress Template Pack
CubePoints
CubePoints Buddypress Integration
Google XML Sitemaps

Wow. Epic reply. Thanks TJ.
BP Gallery is one I’ve just looked at. Looks the ‘biz.
EventPress didn’t play ball with my version of WordPress. ‘Events Manager’ did and looks good.
I’m moving from Ning to BP and just wanted to check it could do most things Ning could
Thanks again for your help here.
I’ve just realized I have a couple of warnings from WordPress, don’t know if this can be helpful to help me out:
Warning: mysql_real_escape_string(): 11 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /path/to/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 785
Warning: mysql_error(): 11 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /path/to/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1119
These happens only when calling the above stated functions of BuddyPress.
Thanks!
@pcwriter
Muchas muchas gracias.
Hi all, so I added BP profile search to my adminbar using the instructions here.
Initially all was well, but since the plugin was updated, the search bar is suddenly using the Blog URL rather than the Site URL. Very strange. I’ve been tearing hair out trying to fix this and can’t find where the problem is occurring anywhere.
I’d greatly appreciate some help if anyone knows what might be causing this.
Here’s the site: http://www.unistudybuddy.com/
You can see most links seem to be fine and the $bp->root_domain is correctly using the Site URL. But if you try searching (top-right), it’ll throw in the “/wordpress/” subdirectory and cause an error.
Thanks in advance.
Jack
