I recently upgraded a client’s site from WordPress MU 2.7 to WordPress 3.3.1 and have been struggling to get everything functional again. The last step involved was upgrading BuddyPress. I had almost everything except for the last feature of the forums in groups. I upgraded the BuddyPress from 1.2.1 to 1.5.4. When I go to a Group Admin page, I click on Admin, Settings, Enable Discussion Forum. I click “Save Changes” at the bottom and receive a message of “Team settings were successfully updated.” (I’ve used the POEdit program to rename Groups to Teams).

When looking though nothing has changed. No forum tab is added to the group, no way to post topics, nothing. How can I debug this and track down what’s happening here?

Thanks!

To start with, have you changed to bp-default theme to check out whether it’s your custom theme that’s not working with BP 1.5.4?

Thanks @mercime – looks like it is in the plugin – off to their forum to see what needs to be done.
