Front page set to Activity stream: total mess! (BP Template Pack)

    I got WP with the BP Template Pack installed.

    In Settings > Reading I see that I can choose Activity stream.

    If I do so, the homepage gets content from other static “Pages”.

    At some point it was showing content from an unpublished page with lots of feeds from other sites.

    I deleted that page, and it seems to get the real BP activity stream, except in Firebug.

    Now, as I said, it gets other pages stuff.

    AND: I got some conditional statement going on in “functions.php” and “header.php” in order to change the sprite image for the active menu, such as:

    <?php if ( is_front_page() || bp_is_page( BP_ACTIVITY_SLUG ) ) { echo ‘class=”active”‘; } ?>`

    It doesn’t print anything.

    Any solutions?

    The site is still http://curephoria.com

    (Since I am testing and debugging, If you ever visit the site, I don’t know what kind of homepage you may end to see at that particular moment).

    I need to sort this out as soon as possible. The homepage is just a mess. Can’t get it right.

    How is it possible that at some point I got the Activity stream to display on the homepge, and now setting Front page to Activity stream again displays this nonsense?

    It actually displays ALL the pages on the homepage. Where’s the catch?

    I did switch to the old homepage while I get the fix.

    Anybody to help me with this?

    Ok, nobody on this one?

    Why setting Activity stream in Settings > Reading gets all the WP pages instead of, well, activity streams?

    Anyone?

    What do you mean by “all the WP pages”?

    If you set the “Front Page” to be Activity Stream, it’s going to load the activity/index.php template when you are on the front page of your site.

    @jivany By all WP pages I mean that when I set Activity stream as front page, the front page displays a loop with all the content from all the WP pages, published and draft.

    I am telling you, that is a very bad bug I am having there. So, forced to put the old homepage up instead of the Activity stream.

    If you (or anybody else) need to see the result, just drop me a private message (or post here) and I’ll be putting the Activity stream up as front page, to show the result. I can’t keep it that way the whole day because would make me sick to know what it looks like.

    ;-)

    Thanks for the help.

    I tried to activate the default theme: same result. Activity stream as frontpage shows all the static WP Pages content.

    I need to get it fix!

    Found the solution!

    I deactivated all the plugins, and re-activated one at the time, the usual debug check.

    It turned out to be the “Different Posts Per Pages” plugin.

    Uuuf!

    Hehe, always suspect the plugins first. Anytime you have problems you should always strip down to just BP and the bp-default theme. Glad to hear you resolved this though.

    Thanks, jivany!

    Do you happen to know about this other problem I am having?
