Thanks @karmatosed
My problem is similar to that posted by @r-a-y but with a difference that I am not using activity page as the parent page.
I am not using activity page as the parent page to other pages but I still get a 404 for profile pages, forum threads, groups etc.
blog.com/members/username
blog.com/bb/forum-thread-title
blog.com/groups/group-title
I can open the members page, forums page and groups page but then clicking on any members profile on member’s page or on a thread title in forum or on a group title in the groups page leads to 404. Everything was working perfectly before the 1.6 update.
You didn’t confirm that you read through the first link that karmatosed provided. Please confirm of you’ve read through https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/version-1-6/upgrading-to-1-6/ and taken the steps appropriately.
Hi Paul,
yes I did read through the page and have taken the appropriate steps to check things at my own end.
I updated my theme, tried to use the default buddypress theme for testing, cleared my cache, disabled plugings, even repaired and optimised my db thru cpanel. But the 404 error persist!
Same here. Read through the upgrade steps, went through all the same troubleshooting procedures, i.e., update them, tried default theme, cleared cache, disabled all plugins, resaved permalinks, tried creating new launch pages for groups, profiles, etc.
Holy crap…because of the member access issue, blogging tools like Windows Live Writer cannot log in to post anymore!
