@investbuddy123 Based on your description of issues with BuddyPress on your WordPress site, you’re encountering problems with group updates and public messaging functionalities.
Here is a step-by-step guide to debug the issue:
Check for Plugin Conflicts: Deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and BP Classic. If the issue is resolved, reactivate each plugin individually to identify the conflicting plugin.
Theme Compatibility: You’ve tried switching to the Twenty-Three theme with no success, which is good. It rules out theme-specific issues.
Inspect JavaScript Errors: Use the browser’s Developer Tools (usually accessible by pressing F12) to check for JavaScript errors in the Console tab. JavaScript issues often cause features like loading updates or activating functions to fail.
Server and PHP Error Logs: Check your server and PHP error logs for any relevant errors. Your hosting provider can assist you in accessing these if you’re unsure how.
Test on a Staging Site: If possible, clone your site to a staging environment. This allows you to test without affecting your live site.
Cache and Optimization Plugins: If you use caching or optimization plugins, clear the cache and temporarily disable them to see if they are causing the issue.
Check for Custom Code: If you have any custom code (like snippets in your theme’s functions.php file or a custom plugin), comment to see if it is causing the issue.
