There is no precedent in which Brajesh does not deliver above and beyond the call of duty. Given the complexity and volume of plugins he builds and maintains along with the many one-off coding requests, a healthy dose of latitude is advisable, imho. I guess at the right price you may find someone who will build what you want and may even maintain it as WordPress/BuddyPress constantly gets updated.
OK nevermind you can’t login directly from the toolbar. I am wrong. It does redirect you to your profile immediately without ever seeing the wordpress dashboard. If I can fix this I can finally get my site up and running. If you have any idea how to help please advise.
Does anyone have a wild idea I haven’t thought of? I’ve been back in forth between this forum and DAP support but I’m totally stumped. The only difference that I can see in the users I created in Dap synched to WP vs. the users I created in WP alone is that…
The WP only users: BP displays their full name in the forums, but the profile page links to their user name. This is the working users config!
The DAP users: BP displays their username in the forums and the profile is also their username. These users cannot access their profiles.
When I campare the two in WordPress/Users, I cannot see any difference, so there must be something happening during registration, right? Is there any way to alter the way BP registers users or does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks for all of your help!
I’m totally new to WordPress and BuddyPress. I have WordPress 3.4.2 and BuddyPress 1.6.1.
I’m using Custom Community (free.) I don’t know what I did, but the profile menu (ie: Activity, Profile, Messages, Forums, Send Invites, Setting) is only showing up on the Settings, Forums and Send Invites pages. It is missing on the Profile, Activity and Messages pages.
I deactivated all of my plugins and re-loaded Buddypress, didn’t work.
I switched to BuddyPress default theme and it did show up.
I removed my child theme functions.php and anything I added to the bp custom php file, didn’t make any difference.
Any idea as to what I may have done to mess that up?
@voarsh either you’d have to learn to code this yourself
or ask WebPurify if they’d create a plugin to integrate with BuddyPress
or hire a developer to do so at https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/ or http://jobs.wordpress.net

Re permissions error:
– Please post issue.when BuddyPress is installed in a network created by Networks for WP plugin at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/networks-for-wordpress
Re: what the “use excisting installation” & “install group forums” differences are.
– If you have never installed Group Forums before, i.e., no bb-config.php at the root of your WP install, then you would click on “Install Group Forums” button
– Click “Use existing installation” means using the Group Forums (BP’s internal custom bbPress) which was created in BP version prior to upgrade to latest version.
Re: And just in case I need to have more added to wp-config.php, this is the BP related define I have in there: define(‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true);
– https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/bp_enable_multiblog/
At this stage, I suggest removing that from your wp-config.php until you resolve permissions issues
@mercime I have been trying to put a sidebar on members “profile” page. For instance a side bar on a page like this http://www.guitaragora.com/members/marcel/ … Does that make sense?
With the “Oh and it’s a subsite of a second network in that installation and I did add the multisite define to wp-config.php.” I mean the following:
I have famire.nl as the main site (main network). I am using the ‘Networks for WordPress’ plugin by David Dean to be able to add multiple networks in my installation. My site onexa.nl is one of the networks.
Inside that network I have a subsite called clients.onexa.nl (which I want to use as an extranet) and inside that site I have BuddyPress enabled.
I understand differences between sitewide & group forums are btw (can’t remember mentioning the sitewide forums though). What I’m not sure of is what the “use excisting installation” & “install group forums” differences are.
And just in case I need to have more added to wp-config.php, this is the BP related define I have in there: `define(‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true);`
A. Installing Forums for Groups only
Step 1. Go to admin dashboard > Settings > BuddyPress > Forums. Click on “Install Group Forums”
Step 2. New bbPress Installation. You’ve decided to set a new bbPress for forum management in BuddyPress. This is very simple and is usually just a one click process. When you’re ready, hit the link below. Click on “Complete Installation”
Here is the problem in step number three sugar you add this in the last config file bb-config.php
Did not work
Step 3. All done! Configuration settings have been saved to the file bb-config.php in the root of your WordPress install.
Is someone to help me Fei way this step

Trying to create a function that will parse the Register link in the admin bar to change the text. I’ve got it deployed on multisite and I’m using the WordPress Admin Bar (not the buddybar)
I want it to say something like “Register a new [insert network name] account”.
Any ideas on how to do this? I’ve already been through some functions in the WP core code and tried to modify them with a new function but it didn’t work. Inspecting the element shows me that the Register link is called wp-admin-bar-bp-register by id – that leads me to believe that I need to modify some function from BP. I’ve been through the code, but can’t seem to figure it out. Can someone help me out with this?
I intend to deploy the function as part of a mu-plugin that I use to brand and modify my admin bar

What do you mean?
I installed WP, then go to plugins, add buddypress, then I get this message when I click activate:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7680 bytes) in /home//public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/deprecated/1.6.php(258) : runtime-created function on line 1
<— not really what it said, it had my username on there for the login for my account, I censored it just for this post. the actual error message had the username properly.
So what am I doing wrong? should I delete everything and re-install wordpress/wp database/buddypress?
@wizza Based on the structure of your theme, you need to change 16 template files within the 6 BP folders transferred to your sportsmag theme folder in server during the compatibility process.
If you’ve previously changed any of the BP template files in your theme folder in server, replace all of them for a clean slate by deleting the 6 BP folders – /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility.
Download the 6 clean BP folders to your computer hard drive.
A. At the top of each of those 16 template files I linked to above, replace
`
`
with
`
`
Then, in each of 16 files, you’d like to make sure that the BP Templates’ page title’s header which have`
.// title
` are changed to `
// Titles Of Respective BP Page Templates //
` and move to just above `
` Watch out when you do this in the /activity/index.php page.
Save files.
Once a comment is posted to my site’s BP forum topic, the following error message appears:
Forbidden
You don’t have permission to access /groups/vegetarian-helpdesk/forum/topic/TEST/ on this server.
Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
According to this thread > http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-bulletproof-security-commenting-error-on-buddpress-forum?replies=27#post-3212123 , it’s suspected that my BP upgrade was unsuccessful. Thus, I backed-up my BP folder, downloaded BP1.6.1, unzipped, uploaded and replaced my site’s BP folder. However, the old files seem to be unreplaced as the problem isn’t solved.
Kindly guide on this matter.
* BP version: 1.6.1
I have changed our site location from http://location.example.com/sub-folder/ to http://new-location.example.com/ and used Apache VirtualHost to steer that header value to the proper sub-directory. However, BuddyPress does not seem to like that change, and I have lost all my BuddyPress pages – “Activity”, “Members”, etc.
I have gone through and changed the location in the WordPress dashboard and also verified my .htaccess and bb-config.php files. The pages still show up on the header menu, however, I receive a “404 Page not Found/Does not Exist” error”.
Note: Simply put, I have changed this site from a sub-directory site a sub-domain site.
Hi Karma/ Paul,
Thanks for the explanation guys.
How would I verify if this was firing?
The cron job is definitely being updated in terms of the times it shows for running. It seems to run once per day.
The thing is, I have just set up a brand new vanilla BP install of the latest version of BP 1.6.1 and after using the WP Cron Dashboard plugin to check on cron jobs, it too shows that NO action exists.
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-cron-dashboard/
That is now 3 separate installs it’s showing no action for.
Perhaps there has been an issue on a BP update, but i’ve checked crons regularly from the dashboard to make sure they are all still there, and I’ve never noticed an issue with this job in the past.
All other crons show just fine WITH actions existing.
Perhaps someone else could install the plugin and see if they get the same result.
To set up the cron, you should only need to post to the activity stream once after installing BP on a fresh install.
The job will then show up under the Tools —> Wp Cron menu in the dashboard.
Hopefully we’ll work it out.
Let me know how I can help out.

This problem was caused by a change made by Gravatar. We have a bug ticket tracking the issue at https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4571
Hi,
I’ve just performed a full backup of all my wordpress / buddypress files (used backupbuddy plugin) and then successfully restored the files to a subdomain.
All looks fine, except that none of the images for our group avatars, or members how up. Can you advise? I have both site live right now – as I’m looking to eventually point away from the first (which is http://www.localjobs.com/blog/ ) and point it to http://news.localjobs.com
Any help on what I need to do to get our images to re-appear on the subdomain site would be much appreciated.
Best,
Brian
