Have looked but can’t find it anywhere, not even in the readme.txt in the buddypress directory.

It seems to be a CBOX theme issue, though.

It’s like WP grad school. You are now Doctor of WordPressology with a dissertation called “BuddyPress: The Hermeneutics of Enabling Community Through Code.”

But it seems to be constructing the query wrong or something.

I’ve created a custom Profile Field where users can enter their interests, and if they enter them surrounded by brackets, that should create a link to the search results for other member profiles who have listed that…[Read more]

I looked in the source HTML code and it’s not there either, so it’s not just a CSS or display issue. See the live  http://vadhconsortium.org/register for…[Read more]

I figured the page was a special one created in the background.

I deactivated it in Commons in a Box –> Plugins, and I don’t seem to be able to reactivate it. When I click the box next to the Wiki plugin and click “Update,” I can apparently reactivate the Wiki plugin, but I can’t find the wiki landing page anywhere.…[Read more]

But I agree, it’s a pain.
