Users can’t create groups or forums in Buddypress

Hi,

I logged into your site and went to http://communitykennel.com/groups/ and was able to create a group on the front end. You can create a group by visiting the groups page and clicking the blue link (see screenshot).

I also logged into the back-end as an admin and renamed your groups page slug from groups-2 to groups, this appears to have happened due to multiple imports of demo content.

If you would like to add a menu item to create a group you will need to go to WP Admin > Menus > Desired Menu and then select ‘Custom Links’ the URL would be /groups/create/ and the link text is your choice.

Let me know if this works for you,

Thanks,

Kieran

Hi,

Please can give me more information about what you mean by

Is there anyway to edit the Buddypress menu in the theme to link to the same groups page?

If you can please supply a screenshot of the functionality you would like to achieve.

If you can use the bbPress shortcodes to allow users to create topics or forums

To create a forum (note: a forum is what holds topics)
[bbp-forum-form]

To create a topic (note: a topic is inside a forum and contain the topic and it’s replies)
[bbp-topic-form]

Thanks,

Kieran.

Hi,

You need to install kleo child theme, before that delete what you had done, then after you install and activate child theme, then you are ok to do that.

Child theme can be found under main files pack that you have downloaded from themeforest.

Install and activate it from wp-admin -> appearance -> install plugins.

Cheers

Added it 🙂 The link should be at Profile > Groups now, you can adjust the position by adding this to style.css of child theme

.bp-user a.group-create.no-ajax {
    margin-top: -0.16% !important;
    position: absolute !important;
}

Hello, sadly that is a bit more complicated and i was not able to add it successfully

Let me know if you need anything else 🙂
