Hi All,
After upgrading to wordpress 3.4 and BP 1.5.2. my forums and members pages are non-functional per the attached screencap.
http://privateenglishportal.com/buddypress-bbpress-forums.png
Any suggestions to point me in the right direction in terms of where I would find the files. Obviously the “New Topic” button in Forums is either redirecting nowhere and I need to change that and everything else I highlighted in the screencapture.
Thanks,
Steve
Good morning all
I currently have group forums working with the latest Buddypress 1.6 and BBPress 2.1, and the bbPressModeration plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpressmoderation/) to moderate any newly created forums and forum topics. This plugin set new forums and forum topics as ‘pending’, until the administrator goes into the dashboard and marks them as ‘published’.
The problem is that unmoderated ‘pending’ forums and forum topics still appear in the activity stream. Is there a way to do a filter so that only ‘published’ forums and topics appear in the activity stream?
I’m using a custom activity stream:

@matax91 are you using PHP 5.4 by any chance? Then check out if solution provided in following link works out for you https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4191
Hello Mercime,
Thanks for your input. As I stressed, I was trying to give constructive criticism. I meant no harm!
I work with DVD/BD authoring, and FCP editing – this is where I can help out others (and I do. Also very generously. And I do know all about the way forums work
). In this area I’m relying on others, and as our support guy was out of reach, I had a very critical breakdown situation on my hands yesterday.
It didn’t make sense to me, that Roger spent time writing that I shouldn’t make identical threads, without at least – in the same post? – writing a line in response to me having followed his original advice. Anyone could probably tell that this double thread was a desperate action on my behalf, for which I apologized promptly.
I’ve been very careful trying to describe what I have on my hands here – If you read my first post, you’ll see that I can’t access the admin panel (so I CAN’T change to default theme!). And if you read the posts after Rogers input, you’ll see that deleting the buddypress plugin didnt help – in other words I still cant access my admin panel. And the entire wordpress site is down.
I respect everyones time! I value (very highly!) what I get from any forum! And I give knowledge back (in my field of expertise)! In this case it seems that because I offended someone, I was excluded. Everyone makes mistakes. I was corrected. And I stated my opinion about forum behaviour.
I’m in over my head. And getting more frustrated by this forum. I thank you for your time – I do appreciate your help. But I’m gonna have to wait for my support guy to return. Thanks.
Ok it does give help on the knowledge base about a rewrite script. I don’t exactly understand what I’m rewriting as I’m a bit of a newbie to it all – is the modrewrite script important?
It tells me to create a file called rewrite.script in the web folder and enter my code and it shows this:
`#Zeus webserver version of basic WordPress mod_rewrite rules
map path into SCRATCH:path from %{URL}
look for file at %{SCRATCH:path}
if exists then goto END
look for dir at %{SCRATCH:path}
if exists then goto END
##### FIX FOR LOGIN/FORGOTTEN PASSWORD/ADMIN ETC #####
match URL into $ with ^/wp-.*$
if matched then goto END
##### FIX TO ALLOW SEARCH TO WORK #####
match URL into $ with ^/(.*)
set URL = /index.php/$1`
Do you know if I simply copy this code or am I supposed to modify it for myself?
I’m doing a test with my wordpress/buddypress website. I allowed member registering. I was doing a signup/login test but it keeps giving me an error. It gets to the part where they send an email for verification, but when clicking the link, it brings me to the homepage (not even signed in). I try signing in, but then it says “ERROR: Your account has not been activated. Check your email for the activation link.”
How do I fix this?
@chrfriis Know that all of us helping out in the forums are unpaid volunteers living in different time zones and under no obligation to follow up with or respond to a question. In other words, we have lives outside of BuddyPress and WordPress. Roger has always been generous with his time in helping out in these forums. And if the suggestions given you didn’t work, then you should take the initiative to find out other solutions yourself.
Change to default theme, then when you can access wp-admin, change back to your customized theme. Roger mentioned this above but you haven’t posted whether you’ve done it or not.
Is your server using apache?
Do you have an .htaccess file ? (look in the directory where you keep wp-config,php )
If so, it should look something like this:
`
order allow,deny
deny from all
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
`
Have you tried “Conditional Logic” (https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags)? There’s also a “Dynamic Widgets” plugin (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=Dynamic+Widgets) I’ve found that works well!
My website is phenomenalcraft.net
How do I get rid of “Community” on the menubar and add a sign in widget on the left side? I use wordpress.
Just before I read this, I changed my theme to the final one I’ll use (Arras Theme with the Classical Gamer child theme : http://arrastheme.com/ )
Your second solution worked well, but now I have an empty bar as wide as the admin bar just under the real admin bar, here is a pic :
http://puu.sh/IhLa
It’s just the top of the page, I think it’s clear enough 
In any way, thank you for your solutions and explanations. I can’t wait for BP 1.6, I may even test the 1.6 beta to see how it’s integrated, I’m very interested by this 
@sobuddy you just add the WP template tag to show the time https://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_time e.g. “
Hello,
for 1.5.x versions of BP you can add this piece of code in your wp-config.php
`define( ‘BP_USE_WP_ADMIN_BAR’, true );`
or add these function to your theme functions.php file if the above doesn’t work.
`function remove_bp_adminbar(){
remove_action( ‘wp_footer’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar’, 8 );
remove_action( ‘admin_footer’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar’);
show_admin_bar(true);
}
add_action(‘after_setup_theme’,’remove_bp_adminbar’);
?>`
or you may wait for BP 1.6 where BP’s adminbar will be integrated in WP’s one.
Hi, the standard permalink structure is:
site.com/groups/uk-chess-group
But I would like to achieve
site.com/uk-chess-group-g9
(Where 9 is the id for the group)
I can do this with a standard WordPress install using $wp_rewrite->add_rule and $wp_rewrite->add_permastruct along with hooking into the post_type_link filter.
Can anyone suggest a way achieving this with a BP install?
The default theme uses https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_the_date so that would be a good spot for starting to modify that. It uses your set date and time format in WordPress under settings so you can modify that there and it will reflect on the theme.
“Default: the date_format option (‘Date Format’ on Settings > General panel)”
I read everything but haven’t found a clue…
Any help please ?
Wordpress 3.4.1 BP 1.5.6
My BP doesn´t show anything
I´m logged with my account in my website,
when I try access to my profile or any page of BP,
the page is just empty, in blank.
I don´t know why.
Could you help me?
This is a fresh install of the latest wordpress 3.4.1 and latest buddypress 1.5.6
After hitting the “Activate” button I get this at the top of the page…
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B-eKT0Z_vxfHNWlZb0ZyeDdBcVk/edit
Never had this problem before
Running WordPress MS 3.4.1 and BuddyPress 1.5.6 with a child theme of BuddyBoss, when users access their profile pages they can edit their information and hit save. This is written to the database but doesn’t show on the edit profile page or on the public profile page (the public profile page is totally empty of profile content).
I’ve tried disabling all plugins, reinstalling BuddyPress, loading the members/single folder from the default BuddyPress theme, activating the default BuddyPress theme and am even experiencing the exact same problem on another site on another domain. The only thing that I think it could be (because I haven’t changed it) is my table prefix which is not set to wp_ or bp_ but rather a random sequence of letters and numbers. Obviously this is configured in wp-config accordingly and the rest of the site works just fine, it is simply public profile content that doesn’t display.
Googling this error makes it look like a bug in BuddyPress that has existed for some time. What causes it and how can it be fixed? Will it be fixed in future upgrades?
Hi!
I’ve installed Buddypress 1.5.6 running on a WordPress 3.4.0 (not MU).
Further installed Plugins:
-s2Member Pro
-BuddyPress Private Community
-BuddyPress Profile Privacy
-BuddyPress Album
-EventManager
This should be all plugins which have influence on BuddyPress.
My Problem now is everything works fine except the private messages. I can send them to my friends but when i try to answer them following Error-Message occurs: “Es trat ein Fehler auf beim Senden der Antwort. Bitte versuchen Sie es noch einmal.” Translated: “An error occured while sending the answer – please try again later.”
When i write a new message to the user it works perfectly but answering the private message just won’t work. I think there is a problem with the automatic recipient identification but i failed to find the error. Searching the web i found no similar problem so i hope you guys can help.
“
I’m also looking for a solution to this problem, which seems to involve a lot of different plugins and tweaking as you said. Haven’t heard anything about this being a part of BuddyPress core anytime in the near future unforunately. It should probably be a part of WordPress core in that case since BP uses WP:s user functions.
Hi,
I want to know that is there any functionality in buddy press that allows user to post on other users profile.
I know user can comment on other users activities and can send them messages(public, private) but i want to allow users to post directly to other users wall. Please help me on this…
I am using WordPress 3.4.1 and BuddyPress 1.5.6
@mercime Thank you for your answer, but by reading what you linked me, I noticed that I was totally wrong on the words I used : I wasn’t talking about the “widget sidebar”, but of the “admin bar” that is on top of the page. On buddypress’ website, I see the WP admin bar, and that’s what I want to have on my own site.
Then, the answer may be in what you linked, I’ll re-read it to see if I find an answer, but even if I mentioned the Admired theme, I think I’ll get the same “trouble” with any theme (I hope I’ll be understood
)
