So I have been pretty hard on the admins here but they are all pretty great. The response time could be a little better but still good.

For a client I created a mens nudist site http://www.MyDanglyParts.com I kept pretty true to the layout/design but added serveral BP plugins to flesh (no pun intended) it out. We went live on July 1, 2014 and an am just shy of 300 members already. Due to the slow speeds of the site (first complaint from members) so I went to a dedicated hosting company and upgraded to 8gig of ram. They also helped me with a few of the suggestions from the different page speed rating sites.

Currently we are at a 93 (A) from Gtmetrix. We do have an Amazon s3 but apparently with the child themes, its not able to serve those so I guess our speed is maxed out for now. The host said that the basic server processing speed is fine but the code for the site has some redundancies and would only benefit with more ram.

Two best plugins I am using are Wang Guard (zero spam signups) and W3 Total Cache. Along with some custom code found in the forums, the site is getting great reviews and the client is happy. The minimal sign up fee (there are free accounts available) more than covers the cost of the dedicated server and for now all is well and happy.

I dont know why the admin here didn’t just check with buddypress and come up with an answer for the questions instead of just running us around in circles. I went to buddypress.org and apparently its a buddy press issue that has been ongoing yet there is no fix for it (unless i missed it). Its not sweetdate but a lot of wasted time could have been saved if we had been told this. The post is from May 2013 so I would have thought that this would be in the FAQ’s or something here for those of us new to buddypress.

Not sure that this will work for everyone but I did some looking around and it turns out that the Buddypress plugin Friends Online is incompatible withe the search function. When I ran a search, it showed number of results but no filtering. I disabled FOL and both BP Profile search and the sweet date search work as intended. The author of BP Profile search has a fix if you want to add it so you can continue using it. The plugin author for FOL was contacted over a year ago about the issue but has yet to update plough in. Hopes this helps someone else! http://Www.mydanglyparts.com (nudist site) working great with over 250 members in first 2 weeks. Thanks Sweetdate!

Hi,

Just as a note I wanted to mention that I am having same issue. On the front end of a user profile, there are duplicate fields under the Turn Ons and Turn Offs sections.

Thanks

hi, I tried and it did not work.

Thanks

Hi, Thanks for the quick response. For whatever reason, they are all working now. I did read a previous comment you posted a while back about resetting the permalinks and tried that and im not sure if that fixed it or if there was something server-side that resolved itself. Thanks again!

Arrrggghhh…. Sorry to bring this back up. I was reading this post and copied the code (already had one working add_action). Obviously I screwed it up and now the home page wont show. Can someone take a look at this and tell me what I did? I have looked at it so many times I cant see straight even though I know there is an obvious error.

Thanks for Any help 🙂

<?php

add_action(‘user_register’, ‘kleo_pmpro_default_level’);
function kleo_pmpro_default_level($user_id) {
pmpro_changeMembershipLevel(6,$user_id);
}

add_action(‘kleo_register_form_extra’, ‘kleo_home_register_tos’);
function kleo_home_register_tos() {
if( sq_option(‘terms_page’, ‘#’) != “#”) { ?>
<div class=”row”>
<div class=”five mobile-four columns”>
<label class=”right inline”>
<input type=”checkbox” class=”tos_register”>
</label>
</div>
<div class=”seven mobile-four columns”>
<small><?php _e(“I agree with the”, ‘kleo_framework’);?> “><?php _e(“terms and conditions”, ‘kleo_framework’);?></small>
</div>
</div>;

}
}
?>

Hi,
can you tell me where to place this bit of code? Correct me if im wrong, but this will basically combine the current two step process of “Create an Account” and take them directly to selecting a membership. If this does not solve that, is there away to do that?
