Hello 
I have one big problem with making my own generated with Artisteer WordPress theme compatible with Buddypress. I try to do with manuals posted in this forum, but…

Please help how to correct fix alignment and so on?
Thanks in advance
The issue has been unravelling here:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/cant-request-private-group-membership-you-do-not-have-access-to-this-group/
I started from scratch on the production server here:
http://dhcworks.carleton.ca/version2/
With fresh files and a fresh DB, the issue came up again. Staging is here and hasn’t had any problems:
http://dev.archonic.com/carleton/dhc/
You can login using username and password “tester” on both sites. Note that on production, the buttons to join, leave, and request aren’t showing on the group directory or group home.
UPDATE: just noticed r-a-y’s patch here – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3687. I’ll try it and report back.
tried the plugin which lets me change my own display name,
how can i as admin change the member slug (or how can i let users change that slug themselves)?
how can i as admin change other user details?
it’s odd because i don’t know how buddypress is “remembering” these names. also, i use wishlist member, and the names there are different. the wishlist member names are the same as the wordpress names, but buddypress seems to have gotten and be using names gathered somewhere else (maybe upon initial sign up)?
best,

The only way to import generated profile fields at the moment is to do a straight database export of the xprofile field tables and then import them into your new site. (These database tables are “wp_bp_xprofile_fields” and “wp_bp_xprofile_groups” by default.)
The codex is basically a WordPress blog. I believe everyone who has an account with buddypress.org should be able to login at codex.wordpress.org/wp-admin/ and post something. Though, your post might be held as a draft until someone with higher permissions can look at it.
If you have ideas for codex articles, please feel free to post them. If you encounter problems, let us know.
There isn’t a single document to reference for documentation. I don’t believe WordPress has a document like that available on their codex. (I could be wrong though!)
I tested out what’s causing my problem. I created a brand new WordPress site with version 3.2.1, installed a brand new BuddyPress v 1.5.1 into it. Went to my site, clicked on the members page, changed my avatar, the cropping tool worked fine. Then I went to my wordpress Users page, clicked “My profile” changed my nickname into “Name Surname” went to try changing my avatar again, cropping tool had vanished. I urge you to try this yourself and see that this is a bug. Buddypress functions CRASH when you’re editing the information from admin panel instead of buddypress own profile changing page. This needs a fix.
For now, I have no idea how to get the cropping tool back again, I tried changing my name back and forth from the buddypress profile page or admin panel, but the tool just won’t come back. I have to literally delete the whole database, create the new site from scratch again to get the cropping tool back when just deleting buddypress doesn’t fix the problem, what gives? Even changing the theme back to “Twenty Eleven” then trying to use the header cropping tool, even that one disappeared. I tried looking up reasonable explanations for this problem, but everyone seems to have their own mix of this problem which is related to jquery. I made this post specifically for the developers so they can take a look at this problem, it’s easy to reproduce.
Any thoughts and tips regarding this issue are warmly welcome.
I, too, am looking for documentation. I found the BuddyPress codex [1]. However, I find it somewhat lacking. Is it a wiki like the WordPress Codex[2]? If so, I may add what I learn to help others.
Ideally, I am looking for a single-document version of the documentation. I would like to print it and have it as a reference as I work. Has that been done before? What would it take to write a script to combine the existing docs at [1] into a single document (HTML, PDF, etc.)?
@mercime, I am specifically looking for information about user profile fields: I’d like to import an existing set of user fields. I haven’t searched the plugins yet; I’m still trying to get oriented to the BuddyPress support system. As for “submitting articles,” where do the articles live? How do I submit one?
Thanks!

i would really like to know more about this…….i m very new to wordpress and buddypress…..this is my site http://theainet.net…i have added more fields on registration page but i could nt found it on dashboard.,,,
Pagination on Members Directory is working for me.
The problem that I see is that your left sidebar dropped down to below content and comments div in your BP pages. Make sure you follow the instructions in Step 3 of the BP Template Pack compatibility process.
I’m using the latest version of wordpress and budypress 1.5.1 and also suffering from request for an activation key. What can I do about this issue. Cheers, Jack
You might what to look at something like this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bowe-codes/ to help you easily post that information in multiple areas.
Hey folks:
I am trying to get my buddypress register page (http://www.howistyle.info) to show up as the home page for my site. I created a new page called signup now, and pasted the code from register.php there, and set that page up as the front page of my site. (I have a plugin that allows me to use php code in posts and pages). The only problem is none of the content will display. I am a bit perplexed because I had no problem pasting code from members/single/index.php and activity/index.php into standard wordpress page.
I even tried creating an i-frame on the hope page and pulling the content that way and I didn’t work.
Any suggestions?
Hello All,
First of all, a BIG thumbs up to the buddypress.org community for their superb and timely response.
I am using WordPress 3.2.1 (recently upgraded from 3.1)
Buddypress(recently upgraded from 1.2.10)
Linux Hosting with MySQL and PHP support.
I have noticed that since upgrading, new users are unable to activate their accounts. What happens is that they receive a link like: mydomain.com/?key=4edgjnfjn…. and they click on it. However, when they try to login, it says: Error. Your account has not been activated. Check your email for the activation link.
My site url is: http://justjankians.in
I am using the bp-default theme and I have not modified the core files or any other files in anyway.
Any ideas as to why this is happening would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
justjankians

Hi
I am having an issue with Buddy Press in that all the links work fine accept the forum button, I can a page not found error. I have tried removing WordPress/Buddy Press and reinstalling again but I get the same issue again. The strange thing is that if I install WordPress/Buddy Press in a sub directory then everything seems to work fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I’ve been doing this for 2 days now and it is driving me nuts.
Thanks in advance
Gary
Well I’ve just done it ( https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5227 ) and the issue seems to be fixed!
Unfortunately it means changing the lines in the `/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-catchuri.php` file
This edit will be overwritten when buddypress is upgraded, and buddypress may have further revisions to 1.5* before 1.6 (with the fix) hatches so take notes in case you have to re-do it!
Make sure you back everything up before trying the edit!
Hope someone could point me to what files that I could check…
The following error comes up when I select RSS feed on my Activity page.
`XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity
Location: http://www.myportfolio.com/activity/feed/
Line Number 1, Column 3:
–^`
Installed: WordPress 3.2.1, Buddypress 1.5.1, BP Template Pack 1.2
This is the first error that I’ve come across using the Template Pack.
Not sure if the template pack is the contributing factor, so I did the following: I’ve used a clean install of my WordPress theme (without either Buddypress or the template pack activated). The RSS feed works fine on my WordPress theme. I’ve also used bp-default, and the RSS feed works fine there too.
So, I’m thinking it’s one of the templates in the Template Pack? Has anyone come across this and solved it? If not, I would appreciate it if someone could point me to which files to examine.
On a similar thread I was told that there was some sort of “retrofit” going on and that I should check the buddyPress demo site.
I checked the buddyPress demo site and there was absolutely no information regarding the buddyPress forum bugs. However, the thread I started got locked so I could not respond.
Might be worthwhile putting your comments over on the wordpress plugin forum for buddyPress so people know what they’re getting.
this is the htaccess.file I have not found the error logs yet. I did go through the wizard after installing.

Logged in this morning to update blog and all of the pages on http://www.ProjectTwenty1.com seem to link to my Site Activity. Not sure what to do – didn’t upgrade/touch anything, just made a new blog post! Updated to new WordPress (3.2.1) and I’m running BuddyPress 1.5.1.
hmmm… I think I might consider a completely separate install under a sub domain or separate path so I could also experiment with a completely different set of plugins, wordpress versions (like 3.3 beta), as well as themes. I am not familiar with MU to know if you can have such independence, for example, having two versions of buddypress installed at the same time.

Hello,
I use BP1.5.1/Integrated BBPress Group Forums. The default WordPress Smileys seem to work on the Group Forums if i enable emoticons via the Admiin Gui.
Now i try to extend the list of the usable smiley’s as my users are asking for some additional ones. Unfortunatly smileys from WP-Plugins like http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-monalisa/ seem not to work in the BP-Group Forums.
How can i extend the list of available smileys without some ugly hacks to the wordpress Core Files?
