NextGen messing with BuddyPress/bbPress urls

    WordPress 3.8.1
    bbPress 1.0.4
    BuddyPress 1.9.2

    Don’t have time to test, but if it’s helpful to anyone I’ve discovered that when I deactivate NextGen my BuddyPress Group is going to it’s home page like it’s supposed to instead of being redirected to it’s forum url. No idea how something like this could happen, and again apologies, but I simply don’t have the time. All I know is after deactivating every plugin and doing one at a time, this one was causing it.

    Wow, I must have been fried when I wrote that above, because it doesn’t make any sense O.o Basically, when I activate NextGEN my bbPress forums that are assigned to a BuddyPress group are not accessible. Instead, the user is taken to the bbPress forum root. When you rest on the url, it SAYS it will take you to the group forum, but it redirects to the root forum anyway. This only happens when NextGEN is activated.

    You can try adding this to your functions.php template file:

    add_filter( 'bp_do_redirect_canonical', '__return_false' );

    See if that helps with the redirect issue you seem to be describing.

    Thanks!

    PS: This will be in future releases of NextGEN Gallery but may not be in the version you are using. C.

    I’ve also encountered this problem – I’m going to test the suggestion above to see if it works!

    I added

    add_filter( 'bp_do_redirect_canonical', '__return_false' );

    To my theme’s functions.php file but NextGen still force redirected various urls. I’m on the latest wordpress and buddypress and have NextGen 2.0.66.29 installed…

    Would you suggest anything else?

    @bruce-s – It would probably be best to start your own topic, especially if the suggestion for the OP did not help.

    Thanks!

    Thanks Cais…
