Buddypress bar redirects to homepage after upgrade to PlatformPro 1.2.2

[misterfunk74 0]

Hello, I updateded from PlatformPro 1.1.3 to 1.2.2, and using Buddypress I noticed that after the update the Buddypress bar doesn't work properly, because most of the links (to messages, groups, profile, etc.) redirects to the homepage. After the update I also installed the PlatformBase. Now, I had to switch back to 1.1.3, because neither with 1.2.2 nor with PlatformBase the Buddypress bar works properly. However, I would like to use the new version: any suggestion about how to fix this? Thank you, Filippo

When using the new version are you just activating PlatformBase? Thanks, Bryan

Hi Bryan, I activated 1.2.2 and then PlatformBase. Not sure if this is what you wanted to know... Thanks, Filippo

You only need to activate PlatformBase. You may want to try activating the twenty 10 theme and then reactivate PlatformBase (NOT PlatformPro) and see if that has any effect. Thanks, Bryan

Thank you Bryan, but unfortunately it didn't work. Now I remember that I had the same problem time ago with 1.1.3 as well, and that somehow I managed to fix it (but sadly I don't remember how!). Probably when I switch to 1.2.2 or to PlatformBase the fix is lost and therefore I get the problem again. Ah, if only I could remember what was the problem! My mom always tells me: "You need to eat fish: it's good for memory!". She's definitely right...

When you managed to fix it, did you mention it at all in this forum?

Hi Catrina, unfortunately I didn't start a discussion neither here, nor in any another forum. Probably I found the solution somewhere in internet and it worked for me. But I don't remember what was the solution and where I found it... :-(

Resolved! :-) I found the solution here: http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/all-links-related-to-groups-redirect-to-home-page-upon-upgrade/ A guy suggested: "I simply re-ran the BP theme compatibility plugin and now everything works peachy keen again". That worked for me as well :-)

Same problem and re-running step 3 of bp-compatibility did not fix it... Anyone have any ideas why the top nav bar of buddypress is not working. It is mentioned in this video too (1min50) http://www.pagelines.com/docs/buddypress Thanks Elliot

Found the answer: I just installed BuddyPress today and encountered this. A did a little digging and found it was using the ???nicename??? for the url. I went in to the users db via phpmyadmin and changed the nicename to ???admin??™ and now it??™s working.

Hey Elliot, I'm getting this same issue. What do you mean nicename? I'd like to go into my db and fix it too!
