A dev just needs to get to it when they have the time. Just got to twiddle those thumbs for now!

There are two ways to resize the width:

1) Set the “maximum embed size” in the WP Media Settings Subpanel

2) Set the $content_width variable in your theme’s functions.php

`if ( ! isset( $content_width ) ) {
// Change 640 to whatever the width of your column is
$content_width = 640;
}`

Hey folks, I’m lost here. I have Fishbook installed with BuddyPress, and the only time I can see the admin bar (whatever menu name you want to give it, the one with My Account, Dashboard & Notifications) only shows up when I scroll down.

Currently, 0 plugins installed, I reinstalled WordPress, then BuddyPress then Fishbook, and the issue remains. I did the trick of moving the header.php file from the BP Default folder into the Fishbook folder (by the way the above file names are no longer correct since BP 1.5) but with or without the header file, the issue remains. I remember testing out BP several months ago, and I didn’t have this menu problem with Fishbook then. I vaguely remember having to install a plugin to customize the menu buttons, specifically for Fishbook, but I can no longer find that plugin.

Let me know your thoughts, thanks a lot.

@Flora1234 Couldn’t you re-install your wordpress through http://yousite.com/wp-admin/update-core.php ??
If that’s what you want then you can just click on the re-install link. Also you won’t loss your plugin, but i do suggest you backup your database just in case.

To backup manually, make a backup of your DB:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database

And your entire files inside /wp-content/.

There are also plugins that help do this:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tags/backup

In BP 1.5, you need these pages.

However, you can easily exclude pages from the main nav with a plugin like:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/exclude-pages/

To customize the BuddyBar, unfortunately you’ll need to get your hands dirty with code:
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/modifying-the-buddypress-admin-bar/

The code for widgets can be found in:
/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-widgets.php

You’ll need to extrapolate some of that code when building your custom entries in the BuddyBar.

Hope this is a good enough starting point!

I may have stumbled upon the problem. It appears only to be happening on the non-root-blog. Follow https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3622#comment:3 for details.

Hi, I had blank pages after upgrading – at the time I had custom community theme. I uninstalled buddypress via ftp and dropped all the database tables. (I also uninstalled and reinstalled wordpress too at one point). I tried all of these as well https://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/blank-pages/ , thanks to mercime, but unfortunately still got the same errors.
I tried bp default theme and was then able to see the dashboard but the front end pages were all blank. I have started using Elbee Elgee and was able to see dashboard and set up forums, groups ok on the front end (the only thing which doesn’t work so far – but I haven’t tested everything is create topic in forum).

Good catch. I’ve opened a bug ticket: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3619

Image, title, and link of… what? Posts from your blog(s)? If so, that’s all standard WordPress theming and has nothing to do with BuddyPress making it any harder.

I think the first example at http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/13020/display-thumbnail-only-on-the-very-first-post-in-the-loop will get you started!

@bakelady The issue is with your custom theme (https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/bp-columns), not BuddyPress itself. @modemlooper, are you still supporintg bp-columns?

Members edit profile fields on their profile. Click the profile tab and then edit. These extra fields do not show in the WordPress user page in the admin

Cool spot. Can you report this as an enhancement on http://buddypress.trac.WordPress.org please? You can use your username and password from this site to log in with. Thanks!

Hi, If its the problem I had then your website is not loading Global.JS you need to backup your functions.php file, (use your childthemes one if you have one) then edit it and add this code below near the bottom:

if ( !function_exists( ‘bp_dtheme_enqueue_scripts’ ) ) :
/**
* Enqueue theme javascript safely
*
* @see https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script
* @since 1.5
*/
function bp_dtheme_enqueue_scripts() {
// Bump this when changes are made to bust cache
$version = ’20110921?;

// Enqueue the global JS – Ajax will not work without it
wp_enqueue_script( ‘dtheme-ajax-js’, WP_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/global.js’, array( ‘jquery’ ), $version );

// Add words that we need to use in JS to the end of the page so they can be translated and still used.
$params = array(
‘my_favs’ => __( ‘My Favorites’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘accepted’ => __( ‘Accepted’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘rejected’ => __( ‘Rejected’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘show_all_comments’ => __( ‘Show all comments for this thread’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘show_all’ => __( ‘Show all’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘comments’ => __( ‘comments’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘close’ => __( ‘Close’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘view’ => __( ‘View’, ‘buddypress’ )
);

wp_localize_script( ‘dtheme-ajax-js’, ‘BP_DTheme’, $params );
}
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘bp_dtheme_enqueue_scripts’ );
endif;

Sure, if i understand correctly you only want logged in users to see certain pages.

Private-buddypress should do the job:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/private-buddypress/

Hope that helps.
