BuddyPress.org

I thought we fixed this in a previous release, but maybe not fully. Please submit a bug report on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org, and you can use your name/password from this site. Thanks

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4629 might be of interest, too!

I’ve happened to done some work on this for BuddyPress 1.7. See the commits and discussion on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4661

You’ll have to wait for 1.7 for this to work. I can’t guarantee that making those changes on a 1.6 install will work or be safe: YMMV.

You’re going to have to write some code: something like this should point you in the right direction http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-change-the-howdy-text-in-wordpress-3-3-admin-bar/

It’s still broken

What exactly do you mean “get a page in my menu”? Do you mean links in your menu instead? If you mean the latter, then check out https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-custom-profile-menu/

Hi @modemlooper thanks for the reply, bp-bookmarklet does not meet my need, how can we share my friend activity inside my buddypress as similiar to facebook share inside facebook activity.I dont want to share from external or i dont want share activity outside my buddypress. Please let me know how it can be done, any pointer for this will be helpful.Thanks in advance.

Then easiest way to show a message on the registration page is to edit the template in your theme and replace the default message. https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/register.

If you want an alternative way, there is numerous action hooks within the file, so you can add the message via a plugin.


function cc_registration_notice() {
echo 'You will get a link in email to activate your account after registration';
}
add_action( 'bp_before_registration_submit_buttons', 'cc_registration_notice');


(shared hosting)

I’m thinking of moving to a good VPS (4 cores, 1.5GB RAM).

i think that’s a really good idea. buddypress has a lot of stuff going on under the hood compared to an ordinary wordpress site (which in turn also has a lot of stuff going on under the hood compared to an old school static site). i would certainly defer to anything modemlooper says because you could make a similar analogy in comparing our respective knowledge level regarding WP/BP. But suffice to say a BP site with as many plugins (and # of elements on the linked pages) you have running on shared hosting, to me, is a recipe for slow site and under 5 seconds is actually not too shabby.

you have to remember these shared hosting servers tend to run hundred or thousands of sites per machine and with a WP/BP probably does as much compute as about a hundred or thousand static sites would normally do to serve content to a visitor. when your site gets to certain level of popularity even a “decent vps” will probably not be enough. we have just infact moved from a “decent vps” to a specialty wordpress host having done that i would recommend considering that option.

We ran into, what I assume here, is the exact same problem that you’re having, but with the BP-Default theme running WordPress 3.5 and BuddyPress 1.6.2, so we tracked down the problem and just implemented the changes from this BuddyPress trac ticket (https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4510) that is set to fixed/closed and will drop soon here with the release of BuddyPress 1.7, and all is well again with threaded comments and replies, as well as fixing a few other quirky problems that we were having.

I’m actually a bit surprised that more folks aren’t posting on the support forums here about these same issues directly related to this. I would have to imagine that it’s happening within a lot of other installs, especially considering that it’s definitely occurring within the BP-Default framework.

I hope that this lead helps you out…

Haven’t seen Labzip’s video guide but this is the first time I’ve read that activating bbPress with BP has caused those issues. More likely cause of issues would be theme or plugin conflict. If you change to bp-default theme, can you see your friends and/or invite someone to the group?

I am also having this exact same issue since upgrading. I have also tried a fresh install, deactivating plugins, used BP default theme and still have the same problem as the original poster. I am using WordPress 3.5 and BuddyPress 1.6.2 as well.
