BuddyPress.org

It might be because you’ve got a username with a space in it, on that site. Also, make sure you change the permalink setting from the default that WP installs with.

I’m just trying it out on a test site but have the same problem. The groups button works, but the blogs, members and forum just reload the home page.

I have the same issue as moshthepitt. I am using WP 2.9.2 in a standard way. I have changed the permalinks to custom: /%postname% my site (dev site) is located at http://www.irreia.org/dev/

I have read as much as I can find about redirection errors to the home page. I see it happening to a LOT of people, but I haven’t seen one single fix suggested.

When I see things like that, it appears that there is some obscure setting that is not mentioned in the documentation anywhere, as it seems unlikely that so many people would be a having the same issue because they were all NOT following directions.

Also, it would be really helpful it there were a ‘subscribe to thread’ on this forum so that one could be notified of additions or answers to the conversation.

Another issue here, when somebody clicks on this: http://www.p3blog.net/members/gm-luke/

They get redirected to the home page.

Is the – in the username an issue? My permalinks structure is not default either.

1. Which version of WP/MU are you running? 2.9.1 Single WP

2. Did you install WP/MU as a directory or subdomain install? http://www.mysite.com

3. If a directory install, is it in root or in a subdirectory? root

4. Did you upgraded from a previous version of WP/MU? If so, from which version? No

5. Was WP/MU functioning properly before installing/upgrading BuddyPress (BP)? e.g. permalinks, creating a new post, commenting. Yes

6. Which version of BP are you running? Version 1.2.1

7. Did you upgraded from a previous version of BP? If so, from which version? No

8. Do you have any plugins other than BuddyPress installed and activated? Yes

9. Are you using the standard BuddyPress themes or customized themes? Using BuddyPress Template Pack

10. Have you modified the core files in any way? Yes, to fix the avatar upload issue:

bp-core-avatars.php line 389

Replace:

if ( !$path = get_option( ‘upload_path’ ) )

$path = WP_CONTENT_DIR . ‘/uploads’;

With:

if ( !$path = get_option( ‘upload_path’ ) )

$path = WP_CONTENT_DIR . ‘/uploads’;

else

$path = ABSPATH . $path;

…and report back?

11. Do you have any custom functions in bp-custom.php? No

12. If running bbPress, which version? Or did your BuddyPress install come with a copy of bbPress built-in? Not using bbPress.

13. Please provide a list of any errors in your server’s log files. – Nope, shared server.

14. Which company provides your hosting? Hostgator

I would like to know this is as well? Is there an easy way to get BP to use the “user nicename” (which doesn’t have spaces)… or even the “login name” would be acceptable (although not preferred).

Wow, that sucks, lol

My BuddyPress site has all links that redirect to home. Tried everything to no avail. My site is http//:www.linkedbees.com try any link and you´ll see. How can I solve this? Thx!

PS: none of the solutions above worked!
