What do I need to change to make this go away ?
Thanks
Nick
I think this is a serious bug in the plugin that should be immediately addressed.
Jesus!, glad you did reply here. Thought this would get lost in the rest.
I tried 2, it didnt work
I tried 3, it didnt work
I tried 5, it didnt work
and also 10, didnt work
I tried group forums proudly powered by bbpress, it didnt work.
I tried site wide forums but it also didnt work
“And what code did you use to set the number?”
No, I didnt apply any code (mom wish I knew). There is an option to do that in the bbpress’s settings page
hello
i have deactivated all plugins except BP
i have changed to BP
even deleted all themes except bp default themes
even removed all plugins except BP
no such luck…
am I missing something ?
thank you for your kind reply
@johnyonutz
== By plugin remove you mean.. ==
You can just do this first -> a) just deactivate all plug-ins except BP
and change to bp-default theme
== Also: “bp-custom.php” file is located in … ? ==
You create the file bp-custom.php -> https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/bp-custom-php/
== I set the number of topics and replies that should be shown in a single page as 2, 5, 6 and 10. ==
Not quite clear. Which is the number that you set – 2, 5, 6, or 10? You mention both group forums and sitewide forums in the last paragraph, so which forum did you set the number of topics to be shown on the page? And what code did you use to set the number.

Great to read about your success with BuddyPress and Enterprise Nation.
Customizing registration appears to be a must when creating a high load community. There is a lot of heavy lifting that needs to be done during signup which requires a custom process.
Interesting that you do not use and activation email.
The site appears to be locked down from a BuddyPress standpoint. No Activity Stream?
@neononcon you might want to check out WangGuard (free in WordPress plugins) for help in limiting spam registration.

Oh, the functions code has nothing to do with actually creating a sidebar in your theme. You would have to add HTML and CSS. The function code is for WordPress to know where to place widgets.
Did you upgrade on your live site? Never do this. Always have a testing setup so you avoid these situations.
Revert back to 1.5.6 https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress/developers
I set the number of topics and replies that should be shown in a single page as 2, 5, 6 and 10. But It doesnt work that way. The rest is paginated and indicated in the page, but not navigatable. I am disappointed. Is there any work around?
(since buddypress has some options that let users erase there content, bbpress for buddypress groups is my only hope. Yes I started a thread at bbpress.org too)
I would like to use BuddyPress as a private community/forum- not published on the internet, for registered users on a website I am setting up. That is why I logged in and went on this forum.
I made the mistake of making my WordPress/BuddyPress username the same as the WordPress website I am setting up. Now, when the website name is put in a Google search I get two buddypress,org search results:
buddypress.org/community/member/jerrypages/
buddypress.org/community/member/jerrypages/groups/
Is there anything that can be done to have the results dropped from Google search.
Thank you for your help
BuddyPress does not come with an “Add New User” admin page. You are probably referring to WordPress’ User admin page.
I just took a look at your StackExchange thread and it appears you’re using WordPress Multisite:
This is very important to know because you’ll need to run your script on the site that has BuddyPress installed.
Because of using WP Multisite, you’ll also have to change your hook to ‘wpmu_signup_user_notification‘.
The BuddyPress signup hooks I mention above only take effect on frontend registration (eg. testbp.org/register). Since you’re not using frontend registration, those hooks won’t work for you.
Is there any reason why you need multisite?
That will probably give you enough to go on.
Like Juan mentioned, XProfile already autolinks various profile fields.
eg. http://testbp.org/members/johnjamesjacoby/profile/
Check out the links in the profile page. They will automatically redirect to the members directory with the search term.
It might not fit your spec exactly, but maybe it can give you some pointers.
The BP Profile Search plugin also enhances the xprofile search a bit as well.
I have some screen shots over here –> http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/59649/how-to-hook-into-add-new-member-in-buddypress/59937#59937
They might help trigger something you have done or seen in your BP implementation process…
Thanks !!!
I am building a fresh BuddyPress site and am still at the testing phase. I have the luxury of blowing it out and starting all over. I have tried probably 20+ combinations of BuddyPress 1.5.6, BuddyPress 1.6 RC-1, “BuddyPress Ready” themes, standard themes + template pack, bbPress lite set up via BP install as group forums, bbPress 2.1 set up as sitewide forums during the BuddyPress install, and bbPress 2.1 set up as BP group forums but not through the BP setup.. Whew… This makes my head hurt 
My current, and I hope final combination:
WordPress 3.4.1
BuddyPress 1.6 RC-1
Genesis Framework + BuddyPress Theme Pack *
bbPress 2.1 Installed after the BuddyPress Install and set up to support BP group forums
*(I tried their GenesisConnect plugin, but get closer to right by using the BuddyPress Theme Pack
All is well except I need the group forums to go full width (no sidebar). If I could tweak some code and make the sidebar for group forums go away I would be a happy camper.
Thanks in advance for any help on this!

Mainly to help anyone that looks here and tries to take away that `bp_core_signup_user` is the solution…well, it isn’t.
In my plugin I simply replaced:
`add_action(‘user_register’, ‘rebuildAuthUsers’); // rebuild the authorized user list anytime a new user is created through WordPress`
with:
`add_action(‘bp_core_signup_user’, ‘rebuildAuthUsers’); // rebuild the authorized user list anytime a new user is created through BuddyPress`
It did not intercept the registration process and launch my function.
Still digging…
Can’t be done (http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/59656/how-to-make-a-discussion-group-sticky-in-buddypress).
Have posted this as a Trac entrancement request. Hopefully it will get attention there…
Awesome @aces…I think we are getting closer…Do you know where I insert <img src="http://my.BuddyPress_site.com/wp-content/themes/my-theme/images/mystery-man.jpg" /> ?
Do I place it all by itself in my functions.php file? If I do (being a PHP coder) I know a stray html tag will show that image on every page. I need to somehow wrap it around a do_action() or and add-action() or an add-filter() or an add_filters() — I believe, as I learn more about hooking in WordPress/BuddyPress.
Thanks for guiding me on what to most out there is such a simple replacement to the out-of-the-box Mystery Man image graphic.
