I get nothing and total chaos

    I installed an additional wp installation and then I installed BuddyPress. And what did I get? Nothing and total chaos. What on earth is this so-called automatic setup they are bragging about? No pages were created and what pages there should be! doesn’t appear like it does with a number of other social plugins, for example. This BuddyPress is something that can only be considered “Do it yourself plugin”! Well, I just had to give up again. But now I’ve at least tested it on a clean new wp installation and it didn’t go any better than previous attempts. Waste of time, nothing more or less.

    Hi,

    You may try disable all non BuddyPress plugin and change your WP theme to default theme for temporary.

    Check site to see if issue still exists. If issue goes away after deactivating other plugins and switching theme then this means that either the theme or one of the plugins was conflicting with BuddyPress. If it turns out to be a plugin/theme conflict, then you need to activate the plugins/theme one by one until you find the plugin/theme that causes the issue to come back.

    If the issue still exists then it is not a plugin or theme conflict. And do these things

    1. If you have a custom code in bp-custom.php, please remove it for temporary
    2. Make sure to use the latest version of BuddyPress
    3. Check your PHP version, and upgrade it to minimum 7.4 version.

    PS: Backup your website first before do those steps!

    No, I can’t, because I depend on both my current theme and the plugins I have installed. Buddypress now works as it should, apart from the fact that it is not possible to set any level of visibility for profile pages! But Youzify is all just chaos and disaster.

    I understand your frustration with BuddyPress not working as expected after installation. It can be tricky to set up sometimes. Have you tried the troubleshooting steps suggested, like disabling other plugins and switching to a default theme? This can help identify if there’s a conflict.

    Also, ensure that you’re using the latest version of BuddyPress and that your PHP version is at least 7.4, as this can impact performance. If you’re still facing issues, consider checking the BuddyPress forums for specific setup guides or common issues. Have you had a chance to reach out to their support or community for more tailored assistance?
