I should point out this is BP 2.4 with WP 4.3. It is multisite with sub directory install.
What are your URLs linking to? In your video you mentioned something like /members/?s=whatever?
In BuddyPress 2.4.0, you have to change the s parameter to members_s. In 2.4.1, this will change to members_search due to a typo.
How are you setting up the members loop to filter students by school?
Here is the main page: http://iblog.dearbornschools.org/teachers-by-school/
Any of these school links will open a url similar to the one below.
The search filter URL is http://iblog.dearbornschools.org/members/?s=Woodworth
where woodworth is the school they pick in their user profile.
My suggestion of changing s to members_s should work.
Give it a shot. Remember to change this to members_search in v2.4.1.
Wow. Thank you. This seems to work until the very last page of the search pagination.
Instead of showing the last few people it breaks and shows all the users from the search.
http://iblog.dearbornschools.org/teachers-by-school/ click on woodworth and go to page three to see what I mean.
Still, this is much better!
Thank you kindly @r-a-y
Thanks for getting back to me.
I can confirm that the pagination handling is a bug. Looking into it and will post a reply once I’ve established a fix.
Excellent. Glad to find an issue. Hope the fix isn’t difficult.
Thank you so much for your speedy response.
Ps. I am really liking the profile cover photo. Hats off to the devs for such great work.
I’ve got a fix ready:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/6745/6745.01.patch
Apply the lines in that patch to your BuddyPress install.
To test this, you’ll need to set WP_DEBUG to true so it will load the unminified version of the javascript:
https://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG
Let me know if this fixes the problem.
I will have to check on Monday. We are closing up for the weekend.
Also, I have never done a patch, so I might not be the best candidate to test. Do I just manually edit the files?
Yes, you just manually edit the files.
If you need help with this, I can provide the patched files somewhere where you can just copy and paste.
r-a-y,
I saw in the recent BP update this issue was addressed but I am still getting the issue. Am I missing something? As soon as I go to page two the custom search breaks for members.
Teachers by School
See my note here:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/bp-2-4-breaks-on-page-2-of-custom-search-results/#post-247017
You have to rename the parameter to members_search for BP 2.4.2 in your custom page content.
Thanks. That indeed did the trick. However, if I view an individual profile and click on the profile field it shows a page with others who have the same profile term and uses the wrong format again. That is baked into the buddypress profile page. I cannot change that.
see this page and click on the school building tag in the profile: http://iblog.dearbornschools.org/members/kieselh/profile/
Then try the pagination. It’s broke because it uses ?s_= and that is generated by Buddypress for the custom profile.
Thanks for noticing this, kennibc.
I’ve attached a fix for this here:

The change you’ll be interested in is located in the /bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-filters.php file.
