Installing BuddyBoss platform plugin breaks site

[hyperdrive_boom]

Good morning,

at the very beginnings of building a site which simply has X theme and Woocommerce on it. I just tried to install the BuddyBoss platform plugin (https://www.buddyboss.com/platform/) and it threw the following errors and gave a message about the site using an old version of BuddyPress?:

gicga4/public_html/demo/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbpress.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in  **/home/magicga4/public_html/demo/wp-includes/functions.php**  on line  **5974**

Please advise, I have deactivated the plugin for now

Thank you!

Hi Jason,

Please try to update buddypress and try again.

PHP throw this error when wordpress try to read metadata from a file which is missing or isn’t readable (throwing a “failed to open stream: No such file or directory” warning).

Try again using update buddypress plugin. Please always save a backup of your site.
