== another theme(travel blogger 1.3.5) i dont see the post button for activities to be updated. also with this theme , bp reports only 4 registered members instead of 10 ==
@onyekat I will assume you’re using this Travel Blogger theme https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/travel-blogger
Just activated the theme in my test install and I see the “Post” button in activity stream (plus all other buttons) and the correct number of members are showing up. But there is a problem I saw so far: although one can post status update in activity stream but comments/replies on an activity stream posts lead to 404 error page.There’s JS conflict between Travel Blogger and BP.
also , i have used the template pack to move the files and completed the steps , but i still cant find the post button on any of the bp pages. my ht access file is fine
WordPress 3.2.1 Multisite
BuddyPress 1.5 (upgraded from 1.2)
Is there a file and a line that contains the number of characters that are printed out in a Status Update in the Activity Stream? I’d like to be able to see and read more of the updates without having to hit the “read more” link.
If so where is it, please?
I’m hardcoding, so the file name and location would be great!
Thanks
Quick question. I host with Web Hosting Hub (cpanel, paid shared hosting, WP compatible) and have a root-level multi-site install (its using blogs.dir for uploads). WP version 3.2.1.
Can I run BuddyPress itself on my setup?
Also, I was told that WordPress is supposed to be creating generated thumbnails in wp-content/blogs.dir/2/files/2011/xx. I see all the original featured images there, but I am not seeing any generated thumbnail versions of those same images. I was told on BuddyPress to verify this before installing.
Any advice?
I see what you mean now.
However, I installed bbPress 2.0.2 through the WordPress installer but could not find the bb-config.php required for the installation. It does not seem to be there at all.
When I went to settings, forum – as instructed by the readme in bbPress – it threw a 500 server error and I could not do anything until I re-started the server.
I think it will be easier to just stick with the 1.x version.
Thanks anyway.
This is not possible. I created a profile menu plugin. search WordPress.org for it
Ok after some more debbuging i found that the problems occurs when me or any other user visit another site different from the main site.
I have a copy of my website for development where i was unable to replicate the problem, but then i visited one of my sites (remember im running buddypress + wordpress mu) and as soon as i edit my profile i get the error and the field_1 get overwritted with the username.
My child sites are just twenty eleven sites where people can create their blogs. So not sure why if i move out of my buddypress main site i get the field_1 overwrited with the username.
Also if i check wp_user_meta nick_name first_name and last_name appears empty, so it looks like for some reason the problem also broke the field profile sync.
Once again if i edit and save the primary field, im able to edit it properly and the sync between bp and wp start working again until i move to a child site.
Im totally lost on what can be causing this problem. I tried to open a ticket on the bug tracker of buddypress but someone deleted it without even saying a reason.
i feel kinda alone on this community….
I have added buddypress to a wordpress theme and would like to add the buddpress links to the custom menu in the usual way of adding links to a menu, from the dashboard. But as the URI contains the name of the logged in user this does not seem possible – or is it?
Thanks for the links @mercime. I have question for the Buddypress team – Why force people to do things that they are not qualified for? It would be better if BuddyPress were able to cope with webhost scripts instead of forcing a manual install of WordPress.
The reason we use WordPress is because we do not want or are not capable of all that techy stuff.
I’m using Buddypress and WordPress. 3 Profile Tabs should be showing under the user profile, Base (primary), Location and Gaming Profile. Unfortunately when you visit http://beta.saw-clan.net/members/saw_admin/profile/ only the Base (primary) group is showing. You can’t even edit it in Profile Edit Mode. Any ideas?
Hi, I have a wordpress MU install with buddypress and I’m using Achievements plugin. I can create an award, but when I hit ‘change picture’ the url looks right (/achievements/table-mountain/change-picture/), but the page renders the home page content?
help?
It’s always a good idea to have a local version of an online site! – buit that’s a different issue…
The main `.htaccess` file should normally be in the same directory as `wp-config.php`
If it doesn’t change or get written when you ‘save permalinks’ it might be necessary to do it manually.
Normally WordPress tells you what needs to be written on the permalinks settings page…
https://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_Permalinks_Screen#Save_Changes
Also if i install just wordpress on its own without buddypress the links are not found either. Im uploading and installing straight to the webserver online if that makes sense, should i be doing this locally first then uploading it to the server?
I’m trying to do the same thing. Have you gotten anywhere?
This is not a typical BuddyPress install, the usebase is tied into WordPress.com and there was an update to WordPress a few months back and it broke this site so they fixed enough to get site some what usable.
It’s taking longer to fix this site because John Jacoby is adding bbpress forums. Bare with the breakage now and get better support later with refreshed and enhanced forums.
I am having the same exact problem. I have already configured my sever with mod_rewrite and I know that is not the problem.
the contents of my .htaccess files are listed below:
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /ximbia/
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /ximbia/index.php [L]
# END WordPress
Please advise.
Thanks

Howdy! I’m very interested in transitioning to buddypress from Dolphin 7 but the one thing I’ve been having trouble finding info on is if I can replicate the front page image and video galleries like they are on my current Dolphin install:
http://www.sandboxgamemaker.com/game-design-community/index.php
Also I think I saw a plugin for this, but it is possible for the community to post blogs to the front page, correct? Thanks so much for your time, as a wordpress user for my other site I’m excited about the buddypress possibilities! Take care.

Hi, I’m running BP 1.5.1 with WP 3.2.1 and experiencing something funny with a calendar plugin My Calendar (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/my-calendar/). I have posted to the WP forums and the plugin author responded a few times and has declared the issue to not be related to his plugin but rather my theme or another source. And because I’ve only just started working with BP recently, I ask the experts where I might look for a solution to this issue.
You can view the forum thread here:
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-my-calendar-my-calendar-plugin-alter-previous-and-next-arrows?replies=6
To sum up, there is a calendar widget in my sidebar and next to the Previous and Next text links that change the month selected these arrows appear. I have my own arrow background graphics I want to use instead, but we can’t figure out what is causing these characters to show up. It’s in the HTML, not CSS from what I can see with Firebug.
`« Previous`
I’d rather not post a link publicly to the site as it is not live yet. Mainly wondering what could be causing the arrows to display if the plugin isn’t doing it.
Thanks a lot in advance.
I have had the same issue today. I am using WordPress 3.2.1 and BuddyPress 1.5.1.
I am running WordPress 3.2.1 and installed BuddyPress, activated it, ran the activation wizard accepting all the defaults and changed the theme to the default BuddyPress theme. All of my pages are no longer accessible or found (menu links return 404 not found error).
I did install and activate bbPress as well to cater for site wide forums. I de-activated this but it did not help fix the issue.
I have since de-acitvated BuddyPress but the issue remains.
I have created new pages since deactivating BuddyPress but this has not fixed the issue either.
Lost patience.
This is more of a WordPress question rather than a BuddyPress one.
Here’s a post that will get you started:
http://wpmu.org/8-wordpress-plugins-that-enable-posting-and-editing-from-the-front-end/
As on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3747, we’ve fixed this in BuddyPress 1.5.2 and BuddyPress 1.6. 1.5.2 will come out same day as WordPress 3.3. If anyone needs this fix sooner, try to backport it from that ticket.
Wordpress 3.2.1 multisite
Buddypress 1.5.1
Genesis 1.7.1 and Agency
Genesis Connect
s2Member
Market Press lite
Wang Guard (just installed)
Rave Player

Thanks for your help.
