Hi,
I am getting 500 internal server error after activating buddypress, I have checked it many times and wordpress works fine if I deactivate the plugin. I was able to make it work by altering the content of .htaccess file but somehow my .htaccess got changed automatically I did not have any back up for the modified htaccess file.
The error I am receiving is –
[Fri Nov 11 01:52:39 2011] [warn] [client 209.85.224.86] mod_fcgid: read data timeout in 40 seconds
[Fri Nov 11 01:52:39 2011] [error] [client 209.85.224.86] Premature end of script headers: index.php
Can anyone help me solve this error ?
P.S. – hosted on linux.
I am getting the following error when I select “Friendship Request” button on the members directory page. I am running WordPress 3.2.1, Theme: Headway 2.0.13, Buddypress 15.1: Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_get_settings_slug() in /home/jmccaffr/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-friends/bp-friends-notifications.php on line 17. The request seems to go to the members and the error goes away when I refresh the page. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you,
Joe
Following up on a reader complaint, I found that when someone subscribes to my Buddypress enabled site with Google Reader using the main ULR (socraticmama.com), the reader automatically subscibres them to the sitewide activity feed. So instead of just seeing out latests posts, the reader is getting all the sitewide activity and it floods their reader.
Is there any way to have our RSS feed, not our sitewide activity, be the default for Google Reader and others?
***I cut and pasted the explanation of my issue from a previous user’s post because he explained it better that I could. The problem is that I am a newbie and I can’t find the right code section to follow the advice he was given on the forum. Can someone point me to the right spot and dumb this way down for me?
Thank you
Using the WordPress 3.2.1 and Buddypress 1.5.1 with default BuddyPress theme
I am also using the multiple groups forums
I’m not sure if this has already been posted on – but I just installed Buddy Press and after activating found the following error message at the top – Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of do_action(). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file in /home/content/05/8404005/html/community/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-classes.php on line 751.
I also found a fix on this page – http://wordpress.org/support/topic/deprecated-message-when-buddypress-is-installed?replies=5#post-2437774 but it didn’t work for me. Any advice please?
Prior to installing Buddypress, I was using the graphene theme, since, I have installed randy candy! However, I can no longer see two menus, it’s not even merged into one properly. Many (all) of my sub-pages are no longer beneath the parent category pages, hence there are no drop down menus. I also only have one menu/primary.
I am quite new to wordpress, but have managed a couple of php deletions and uploads today, but masses of code scares me quite a lot!!!!!!!!
I hope you can help
Apologies in advance for the wall of text.
I’m working on a heavily customized site that’s being reworked to include BuddyPress. I was brought on to this project several months after it started, and I don’t have access to the original developer. I’ve been able to integrate BP fine, fixing bugs as they came up, with one exception: the activity stream isn’t working quite right when using AJAX.
Here’s an outline of what’s happening:
User Profile > Activity > Personal: On first page load, displays only that user’s activity and obeys whichever drop-down filter was last chosen. Using the drop-down to change/remove the filter sends the request through AJAX and displays a response, but the response is no longer unique to that user. The drop-down filter is obeyed, but it displays applicable activity from every registered user.
User Profile > Activity > Mentions: Correct on page load, then it’s no longer user-specific after choosing a different filter. It also ignores the “Mentions” scope and loads all activity from all users that fits the filter.
User Profile > Activity > Friends: Same as Personal tab. On page load it is correctly displaying activity from that user’s friends, after choosing a filter it includes all users.
This website has passed through so many different hands for over a year, and as such the code is very complex and custom. BP Template Pack v1.1.3 was originally used as the basis for any BuddyPress templates in the theme. I’m not looking for someone to fix my problem for me, I’m just looking for any input anyone has on AJAX activity stream requests and exactly how the query works. I get lost after tracing it back through the 6th or 7th theme/plugin file. I’m also confused as to why the “bp-activity-scope” cookie is always set to null on a fresh BP install using the default BP theme, and somehow the Mentions/Friends/etc. scopes still work.
Side note that may or may not be part of the problem: I’m using `wp-admin/admin-ajax.php` for the `ajaxurl` variable instead of `wp-load.php` (the BP default). I couldn’t get AJAX to work at all using `wp-load.php`.
Does anyone have any insight?
Website information is below.
1. WordPress version: 3.2.1
2. WordPress is installed on a subdomain, and is not multisite
3. WordPress is installed in root
4. This issue happened long after upgrading to 3.2.1 (i.e. upgrade to 3.2.1 isn’t relevant to issue)
5. WordPress was functioning properly before adding BuddyPress
6. BuddyPress version: 1.5
7. Since I started on this project, I’ve upgraded BP to 1.5. The issue wasn’t discovered until long after the upgrade, but it wasn’t being tested for right away, so it’s possible the upgrade caused the problem.
8. Active plugins:
Advertising Manager v3.4.19
Akismet v2.5.3
BuddyPress v1.5
BuddyPress Activity Plus v1.2.1.9
BuddyPress Album v0.1.8.11
BuddyPress Template Pack v1.1.3
Disqus Comment System v2.66
Front-end Editor v2.1.3
Google Analyticator v6.1.3
Gravity Forms v1.5.2.8
Gravity Forms + Custom Post Types v2.1
Image Widget v3.2.8
Members v0.2
Quick Flickr Widget v1.2.10
Regenerate Thumbnails v2.2.0
W3 Total Cache v0.9.2.4
WordPress Importer v0.5
9. The site’s theme is heavily customized, with template files from bp-template-pack version 1.1.3
10. No WordPress core files have been modified, but one modification has been made to BP core files
11. There are a lot of custom functions in bp-custom.php
12. The site is not running bbPress
13. This error appears in the log when I trigger the issue (I need to obscure domain & IP address):
2011/11/09 17:19:20 [crit] 20565#0: *6552 connect() to unix:/tmp/php-cgi.socket failed (2: No such file or directory) while connecting to upstream, client: 67.***.**.2, server: domain.com, request: “POST /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php HTTP/1.1”, upstream: “fastcgi://unix:/tmp/php-cgi.socket:”, host: “prod.domain.com”, referrer: “http://prod.domain.com/members/abarrett/”
14. Amazon EC2 hosts the server
15. Server is running nginx
So, I posted this on the WordPress forum a couple of days ago without a response. I am confident they’re really busy but maybe someone on the Buddypress site knows the answer given the continual testing and improvements? Below is what I posted:
I would test the latest Beta with my iPad if I had greater access to my host’s server. 
Anyway, it is my understanding from the company, TinyMCE, that the latest version of TinyMCE includes all of the necessary modifications that will allow it to work on iOS 5. Does anyone know if the latest WordPress Beta include the iOS 5 compatible version of TinyMCE? Thanks!
Sorry if this is a really dumb question but I can’t really find the answer I have looked for.
I already have a wp-multisite installation live. It has several hundred members with blogs, a directory (directorypress) and a download store (estore).
I want to add a contributable gallery to my network, where members can add galleries and rate other members photos etc. I cannot find a way to do this using standard wordpress plugins, but I have been told there is functionality to do this may exist using buddypress.
My question is – can I just add buddypress and its plugins to my existing multisite? Will all the existing blogs still be as they are now etc? Or would adding buddypress now be incompatible?
Hello
I have new install BP 1.5.1 WP 3.2.1 using subdomains and David Dean’s Networks for WordPress.
All is fine except the activity page – have gone through BP setup routine and using child theme and this is on the main domain – just goes back to the subdomain’s blog main page.
The activity pages on the other domains’ main sites is all OK.
Have used “Activity” page and deleted this and used other page names with the same result.
Is there an internal config change needed?
Hope this makes sense.
Many thanks.
……………..
Now resolved.
Found other blogs on other sites were working when created and deleted and recreated problem blog and all OK now.
