Thanks for that link. I can tell I’m not alone in what is an extremely complicated problem to resolve, apparently.
So, I took the changes to bp_core_filters.php and applied them up to the most recent patch, which according to some other comments suggested that may fix the issue. Unfortunately, no change at all. I’m not using any SEO plugin on this particular site so I know that isn’t the issue, and I’m just at a total loss on how to proceed.
I wouldn’t even mind necessarily if it was hard-coded somewhere else to just make the proper title appear, I just need a fix. I appreciate your help!
Not sure that Customizr is now working 100% with BP (1 year back it wasn’t compatible with BP).
Anyway, issue is related to the theme. FYI, 2015 also doesn’t show up page titles…
To solve this temporarely (until next update), you can apply this patch
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6107
I tested v.6107.06 with Customizr and it works !
Hi danbp, thank you for the help!
I saw that ticket and I applied the changes in v.09 to my bp-core-filters.php file and still didn’t have any luck with it fixing anything. Maybe it was the way I applied the patch. Applying this patches is something I’m not really familiar with. Could you provide any tips on how to best apply the .patch file? I’ll try the .06 version since you’re saying it works, too.
Thank you!
Version 9 and 6 are slightly different and Customizr doesn’t show a complete BP title when you use the latest patch (9). For example, you’ll see just the site name on single activities.
Applying the first one made by imath will probably be the best solution in your situation. I won’t critizise Customizr, but personnally i won’t use it with BuddyPress. Because of this issue, and some others, handled on that theme support. 951,457 downloads maybe say it’s a popular theme, but 245 support pages in one year is something that get me a bit suspicious in term of usage.
There is no miraculous method to apply a patch, and no special tips for that except if you don’t know how to copy/paste code, which i can’t belive is the case 😉
So Codex is your friend to discover some other academic methods like using Tortoise.
Copy/paste it is! That’s how it went the first time, so I’ll give it a second shot. Thanks for the feedback on the theme, though. I may evaluate my other theme options first before I go through another round of editing a page of code.
Thank you for your help again!
I just wanted to confirm to anyone who finds this post later with the same issue (before 2.2.2) that this process worked 100%. Just apply the changes in this link and it should fix your problem, if you happen to use Customizr as your theme of choice:
