About: Angie R

I am not a dev by any means. I depend entirely on strong solid products (plugins) being developed by others. I certainly do not have knowledge on how to fix any ‘capabilities issues’ (I don’t even know what that means). I talked with the support team at my hosting service and they looked at the error log. The membership plugins (whether it be s2member or another brand) are NOT playing well with BuddyPress & bbPress. Initially, it appears to be the theme that causes the issue, but regardless of what theme is being used the same error occurs. It doesn’t matter which member plugin I select or which theme (believe me, I have tried several combinations) When I spoke with my hosting company folks, they said, “Its a database error. plugin was mixing with the database causing this.” I have come to the conclusion that I CANNOT use s2member with BuddyPress & bbPress because of this. So, I have a choice – membership site or forum – but not both. While I am disappointed, I will select the forum over the membership.

I will give you the full spectrum of plugins and themes I am using if you wish to test this for yourself (because I’d sure love to see this all work smoothly and seemlessly in the future):
