Not sure it’s something we need to be busy with really, in reality if this field is left out the username is used for all display purposes so again I question the use of ‘anonymous’ to describe the registration? I asked earlier whether you had any plugins in use that might alter the way WP/BP names are handled, is there some change being made to…[Read more]

Ok yes it does – but this doesn’t mean users anonymous the ‘name’ field if the WP display name if our field is empty then the user name is displayed. I would suggest that white space is necessary what we’ll need to do is check for only white space and fail the submit.

Hmm I tested this and couldn’t re-produce the issue, checked our code as well, maybe I only added two spaces not three? how would two versus three be any different though.

@mikealan as Paul says we’ll release when we’re 100% happy with the templates, at the moment there is still some work to do and mainly falls to me to complete, thorough testing is then also important, I would revise the ETA to probably be a couple of months away.

BP has checks in place for characters entered, you should not be able to register a username that just consists of white space without the form throwing an error message. Have you any additional plugins running that might be interfering with the BP registration process?

@deimz firstly please accept deepest apologies for losing track of this thread, I did initially read but hadn’t time to follow through with. @Mercime has been writing up a Codex summary for last year and it jogged my memory on contributions.

Mercime is planning – if not already done so – to add the pdf’s into the codex ( or links to ) in the…[Read more]

@kristianngve
No it isn’t missing vital info, the clarification is directly after the instruction on naming convention for the BP folders in a child theme.

N.B. Inside the subfolder ‘community’ you must preserve the path structure/folders that exist in the BP original /buddypress/ folder so /activity/ must be created to hold index.php or any of…

We’re happy for people to contribute those new UX/UI improvements then!

Like I said before please stop slatting BP and the people that provide this very complex app for FREE for your use.

I’m not being impolite @unrealpixel but attempting to get people to realise that the tone of the thread is not pleasant 🙂

As stated above:

> Your install has a plugin or custom code that generates that friendship request.

Find the offending plugin and deactivate or get a developer to find the custom code and remove.

@all Could we maybe a little less rude about BuddyPress styling we put a heck of a lot of our work time into providing BP as theme compatible app, it sounds like you’re all experiencing problems with premium WP themes affecting BP. Our registration screens are as best they can be made when we have to try and cater for unknown styling…[Read more]

@winstart I can’t replicate any issue with avatar or cover image uploads, can you ensure you have any third party plugins disabled and test again with a plain WP/BP install preferably running a Stock WP theme i.e 2017.

I’ve closed the trac ticket for the moment, that’s more suitable when there is a proven issue.

edited// although it still tests ok on my install – not really sure why – r-a-y is right the function should pass a default value, and has patched.

This has been opened as a trac ticket:

@jaeyholic can you provide the details requested there, thanks.
