We have updated Auto Group Join plugin to version 2.0.2 to work with WordPress 3.0!
I have updated the BuddyPress Auto Group Join plugin to work with WordPress 3.0. I haven’t looked at r-a-y’s Welcome Pack, but I’m sure it does a wonderful job too!
Just to give a quick summary:
– current standalone bbPress plugins are possible to use with BuddyPress, but they need to be ported over to WordPress/BuddyPress. Check out Rich’s BP Forum Extras plugin, which combines a few of them:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-forum-extras/
– forum editor tutorial:
http://etivite.com/groups/buddypress/forum/topic/quick-tip-adding-markitup-to-group-forum-textareas/
or:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-tinymce/
– lastly, like Paul mentioned, bbPress is getting a major rewrite from an external script to a WordPress plugin. This will directly impact BuddyPress in version 1.3/1.4. Don’t worry too much about it now. Just use the BuddyPress’ forum setup as-is. Everything will sort itself out!
@ninamorena Wow, I’m not sure. That’s not a good thing to change. I assume you have a good reason for not installing WordPress at http://example.net/?
@mercime I think so, I’ve not come across this before.
Just checking in; haven’t had time to look, but haven’t forgotten.
I’ve not seen any. Is this reproducible, and does it only apply to certain user accounts? If so, anything special about those accounts — how they were created, etc
First of all, it’s not a database version. CSS in WordPress and BuddyPress has those “get” parameters in the URL as a means of forcing browsers to refetch the file rather than use its cached version. For example, when BuddyPress is upgraded in v1.3, you don’t want people to be loading the browser cache version of the CSS for v1.2. This is exactly what hnla told you above four weeks ago.
Secondly, if your theme is trying to load two versions of that file, it’s because in your child theme (or customised version thereof) is calling it twice. I can’t comment where or how this could be happening as we can’t see any custom script you’ve put into your theme.
Finally, you should be safe to copy and paste the php snippet r-a-y gave you two weeks ago into your functions.php; just be sure to paste it before the “?>” line at the bottom of the file.
@mercime. I’m having that problem again. I’m using Linux server, Buddypress 1.2.6, WordPress MU 3.01, Apache version 2..2.9 and PHP version 5.2.6. My sql 5.0.51a-community. I’m using a VPS. My traffic isn’t that high at this time so it shouldn’t be an issue with traffic spikes.
I’ve increased the memory limit in the wp-config.php file by adding define (‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’);
I’ve increased it in .htaccess by adding php_value memory_limit 256M
I’ve also increased it in my Php.ini file.
Any other ideas?
1. Go to Google.com
2. Search for “tinychat wordpress”
3. Click on link “WordPress > Tinychat < WordPress plugins"
WordPress 3.0.3
BuddyPress 1.2.6
BP Group Documents 0.3.5
Plus a custom functions.php file which makes the autocomplete pick up all members not just friends, but this bug was happening before I created this file.
Hey guys,
Im having a common issue but the threads so far havent helped me so i started this one, hope you dont mind.
Was hoping someone with a bit more understanding could walk me through what ive done wrong.
Ive setup my website with wordpress via fantastico and then installed buddypress and a theme for it.
Made a test account and waited a while, checked the junk mail folder and no luck.
What do i need to do to set this up so that emails will send? Is it a bug, a server issue or what? Im happy to provide as much information and try what is needed.
Regards,
Ben.
I am newbie, 2 weeks using WP …
I’m thinking that the problem is the installation of bbpress …
I tried to install another WordPress, in another directory, with BP, and bbpress (and created one more problem) and does not work … I have to change table_prefix….???
Umm..
It seems that the following phenomenon revives:
Version 1.2.4.1 – May 23, 2010
Fixed bug with WPMU installs where the blog directory would show no blogs. No change for standard WordPress installs.
I don’t believe Giving WordPress its own directory works with BuddyPress showing up in the root when your WP is actually in the directory. Much like WP Multisite won’t work when you give WP its own directory. Calling on devs @DJPaul @boonebgorges @johnjamesjacoby. Is this a warning we should also add in Codex?
for some reason my website (http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~jgreine/wordpress/) shows the buddypress bar at the bottom, not even as a bar but just as a list of items. im using the platform theme. can anyone give me some assistance please?
I am having this problem with bp, I am hosted by bluehost
We (me and someone else BP experienced) are working on something that will do this, and a lot more.. We’re doing our best to get it finished early next year or so 
I’m not sure the current BP-Default theme is suited to front-end blog posting; it doesn’t make sense for all themes. We’re quite close already, as we could re-use the post box on the activity stream page as a starting point. Maybe we could template it out a bit.
Hi @bengali
As the original post is a month old, can you confirm the exact error message? Is it on the same line? Also, what versions of WordPress and BuddyPress are you using? Thank you,
I get the feeling that’s half of what you meant to post — do you need help importing users into WordPress, or were you sharing a tip?

I think that’s unlikely to happen, but I’d be interested to know what you want from the WordPress dashboard that you want in the BuddyPress front end?
Am just thinking how nice it will be if wordpress dashboard be moved to buddypress page, so that wp dashboard can be hiden
@stoi2m1 – Did you view the link I posted above? The info on the page tells you to use the “Mail From” plugin:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/
Try that and see if emails are sent out.
Hello,
I just launched my first buddypress website,
Wordpress 3.0.3
Buddypress 1.2.6
I found some kind of bug when some registered users comment on a blog post, The comment is posted without having the user’s avatar and without a link to the user’s profile, It’s like the comment was written by a vistor not a registered user ..
The thing is, That comment is posted to the user’s activity! ..
I found it happening to 3 users so far, One of them has uploaded a custom avatar and all of them don’t have Gravatars..
And all their comments shows this problem..
I did check their user data in the database, nothing seems to be odd or different from the user’s who’s comments get posted correctly..
And I’m using the plugin Login With Ajax for user login ..
Is anyone facing any similar problem?
