Hi,
I have BuddyPress running on my site, and have set up this registration form: http://www.iqmindware.com/register
I have created 2 public groups here: http://www.iqmindware.com/groups/
My problems are:
a) after filling in the registration form, the user is told that a confirmation e-mail will be sent. But it is not.
b) members are not showing under ‘members’ (http://www.iqmindware.com/members/) even though I have had about 40 people register as users to WordPress (under ‘Users’ / ‘All Users’ of my Admin page). Why are they not showing up as members?
Thanks,
Mark
There seems to be some serious oversight in the latest version (1.5).
I’m not entirely clear from the above post, but I may have the reverse issue….
After the update my top level site works fine with the Community header features (Activity, Members, Blogs) working after the required plugin repair of the top level site, but the activity stream for each sub-blog on my multi-user installation links to a (non-existent) activity stream for that site, instead of the network.
So, the top level site http://retrofitdiaries.org/activity/ works fine, but for the member site http://member.retrofitdiaries.org the activity header links to http://penwithhousingpenzance.retrofitdiaries.org/activity/ whereas it should also link to http://retrofitdiaries.org/activity/ because that IS the Community. Calling community where it is one blog is meaningless!
Please let me know how this can be fixed.
Each community function can link to a WordPress page BUT this is what Buddypress is supposed to manage!
Thanks
I have the same issue I think. Just installed bp with wp yesterday through Godaddy hosting and I received this error today and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 98304 bytes) in
Hosting8544710htmlwordpresswp-adminincludestemplate.php on line 1839
OK, I have everything working EXCEPT on the events-manager pages in my buddypress admin profile it shows the correct sidebar on the right but it also has the sidebar shown again under the body/content of the page in the unstyled format.
Any one have an idea where I find that get_sidebar php tag? I’m also afraid if I do find it that the WordPress admin will break if I remove the tag. Can I just turn events-manager off in buddypress and access it through the wordpress admin instead? How do I do that?
I’m wanting to build a network of sites where each of the sites has the features of Buddypress. In otherwords the root site would run Buddypress and the WordPress MU sites (blogs) would also have the Buddypress features for themselves (forums, groups, members, etc.). Is this possible?
I have installed both BuddyPress and SimplePress to my WordPress site: http://www.iqmindware.com
I have not enabled a ‘Forum’ page for SimplePress nor have I set up any groups or forums in SimplePress. I am trying to simply use BuddyPress, where I have created different user groups, and a profile field setup.
However, when people register (and about 40 have registered), using the Profile form I set up in BuddyPress (I have screenshots), I can only locate them in SimplePress under ‘Users – Member Information’. The fields that I set up in BuddyPress do not appear here, but their e-mails and names do.
Also, the registration profile form tells you after filling in the details that a confirmation e-mail will be sent to your e-mail, but no e-mail arrives.
Any idea what is going on?
@ewebber What type of hosting environment are you in?
If in a shared hosting environment, it could be that your web hosting provider is simply limiting the amount of memory that can be used by a single script. If this is the case, increasing the memory that WordPress can use won’t have too much effect as you’ll still be limited by your providers software configuration.
From my experience, most shared hosting providers limit memory to 32MB (some less…). With WordPress really working best with 64MB+, if this is the case, you’ll run into these errors quite often.
Hi,
I installed buddypress 1.5.1 on wordpress 3.2.1
when I click edit on user profile, it redirect me to “profile/edit/group/1”
and the page say it’s not available.
if i change the the URL manually to “profile/edit/group/2”
I can see the edit page with the fields I created.
is any one know why is that and how to fix it?
thanks
@loudrake first, what theme are you using? If you have a WP theme and used the BP Template Pack plugin, which method did you use to make your WP theme compatible with BP – 1st method which changes more than a dozen BP template files or the 2nd method using header-/sidebar-buddypress.php?
All probability is that you’re used the first method and missed replacing the divs in all the required BP template files as listed here https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#tplfiles
@suziwilson congratulations on your pastebin post 
To make sure that your code shows up in this forum, place backtick (`) the symbol within the parentheses at the beginning and at the end of your code. For long/big blocks of code, pastebin is better.
` `
We’ll be using the first method to make your WP theme compatible with BuddyPress – changing HTML structure in 16 BP template files transferred to your Listings theme folder in server during the BP Compatibility Process. Download the 6 BP folders transferred to your Listings theme during the process.
Starting with activity/index.php At the top of the file, replace
`
`
with
`
`
At the bottom of the file replace
`
`
with
`
`
Save file. Then do this with the remaining 15 files except for registration/register.php where at the very bottom, you replace
`
jQuery(document).ready( function() {
if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();
jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
});
});
`
with
`
jQuery(document).ready( function() {
if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();
jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
});
});
`
Save. Upload to server.
` `
You would still have some minor tweaks to the styles within the template. I’ve posted the tweaks used in some themes near middle of this page https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/
Single WordPress Version 3.2.1. Buddypress 1.5.1. I’m using my own theme which is a child theme of the default Buddypress theme.
Hi Buddypress Team,
I’m seeking technical advice for only ONE item… the rest is ‘in the bag’
I’m using Buddypress with the Fishbook theme & WordPress MultiSite. I’m trying to display one custom header for each blogs/sites (located in subfolders). After tweaking around for 2 day with style.css & header.php (with horrific results – like 2 headers showing at once, or none at all), now I think it’s time to seek advice!
My attempts were made using the plugin “Dynamic Headers by Nicasio Design”), but Murphy’s Law doesn’t seem to be on my side for this one. OR, am I using the wrong plugin?
Regards,
Peter
This snippet looks good to go
Yes, these are the directions I followed:
https://codex.buddypress.org/buddypress-site-administration/deleting-buddypress/
The installation wizard does not show up. WordPress acts like the buddypress was already installed, and then gives the message:
The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Activity Streams, Discussion Forums, User Groups, Members, Activate, Register.
Where can I find Buddypress Forum Documentation?
I’d like to know more about what functionality the Buddypress Forum has so we can make a decision if it’s the right choice for a forum within WordPress.
Also, is there documentation on how to configure all the forum settings?
== I did a complete uninstall per the directions, ==
Directions from what source?
== How do you trigger buddypress to recreate the tables and pages within wordpress? ==
https://codex.buddypress.org/buddypress-site-administration/deleting-buddypress/
Then install BuddyPress 1.5.1 and go through Installation Wizard
for sure – but the bug is open for 15 months ( https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2576 ) and wasn’t fixed – and therefore i thought if you tidy the code up you could add it to core as a patch.
I did a complete uninstall per the directions, including deleting all of the buddypress tables in mysql.
I went to do a new install with 1.5, and now I am getting the message:
The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Activity Streams, Discussion Forums, User Groups, Members, Activate, Register.
Is there something else that needs to be deleted, in order to allow a fresh install? How do you trigger buddypress to recreate the tables and pages within wordpress?
You’re best to ask for this on the bbPress forums, as that’s where you’re having the problem. I would generally suggest that “pretty permalinks” work in regular WordPress (e.g a post) first.
Hi
I installed bbpress and wordpress and buddypress and when ever i go to the forums tab in the menu it gives me an error 403, when i create a forum in my admin panel it lets me but when i press view forum or topic it says that the header information in line 10 is wrong,
Please help me.

bb-config.php can be found at the root of your WP installation. For example:
if WP is at domain root == http://yoursite.com/bb-config.php
if WP is at physical subdomain root == http://wordpress.yoursite.com/bb-config.php

I am experiencing a weird problem on http://cureuphoria.com/activity.
When you try to “Comment” on any activity, you get this page: “http://cureuphoria.com/activity/reply/” and it displays the “Page not found. We’re sorry, but we can’t find the page that you’re looking for. Perhaps searching will help”, with the search form.
I tried to deactivate all the plugins and the problem is still there.
I use a sngle WordPress Version 3.2.1. – Buddypress 1.5.1.with a child theme, with only a few templates changed (header, footer, sidebar), and got a “functions.php” file in the child theme.
The problem is really annoying as nobody can comment on anyone activity.
Any help?
