Hi,
It seems someone has put some mischievous code on your site. There is nothing like “GoogleBuddydev” from us at BuddyDev.

From your screenshot, it seems you are using Youzer plugin and the text might be status update or activity. Please check.

Please Login to your Dashboard and visit Appearance->Customize-> BuddyPress Nouveau -> Member Front Page.

Uncheck the option “Enable default front page for member profiles.” and publish. The home tab will be removed.

Hi @coolhunt
Thank you.

It seems that pages having item tabs is showing this behaviour(slight extra space on mobile)

I checked registration page on your site which is not showing this behaviour. We haven’t updated the Community Builder with recent changes from Pro. I will release an update next week with the fixes for this.

Thank you
Brajesh

Hi Lars,
Akismet was one of the suspect. Since it did not resolve it, I will suggest disabling/plugin code which might be affecting activity posting(anything that filters/restricts etc).

If that does not help you to find the bottleneck, using xdebug to profile may help(it is a bit complex, so If you are not comfortable with it, disabling some plugins to test will be a better option).

Hi Lars,
Thank you for confirming.

Please visit Dashboard->settings->BuddyPress and click on “Options”. Under options, you will see activity section.

There is an option to disable akismet there as shown below(Please uncheck it to disable).

Please give it a try and let me know if that works for you or not?

Hi Lars,
Is there any chance you have Akismet enabled on site?

[Brajesh Singh]

Hi,
Yes, you can do that.

In terms of BuddyPress, this configuration is called “Root profile”.

You can enable it by putting this line in wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php

define( 'BP_ENABLE_ROOT_PROFILES', true );

I am glad you liked it.

Hi @coolhunt,
Hope you are doing well.

we released the first theme a week ago(I did not post here as our demo was not setup properly. We have a basic demo for now).

Please give it a try. It is a framework with all the essential features to let you design your theme(using cusotmizer).

Community Builder

I Hope it will be useful.

hi @coolhunt
Thank you for checking. The theme is a bit delayed. Will be available on 27th now.

We are still working on certain pain points which are normal for site admins(like how to make it easy to reorder buttons/tabs, setting default directory tabs/filters and a lot more on that line) and a few things.

We are taking a little longer and hoping that our efforts will save site admins a lot of time.

I will post back after settings up a demo/release page.

Thank you
Brajesh

Hello again,
Just wanted to let you an anyone else looking for the same that the plugin is available on wordpress.org now.

Activity Plus Reloaded for BuddyPress

Hi,
No. It won’t have any impact on any impact on the functionality.

The slugs are meant for customizations and you can change it as you please without worrying.

[Brajesh Singh]

Hi,
You are most probably using a premium theme. The above is added by it or its addon.

My guess is, it has some plugin for adding custoimize panel and somehow that is getting activated twice.

Please look at the list of your active theme/plugin and see if you can find something like that.

Hi,
Are you using BP Nouveau? If yes, It is easily doable with CSS

.bp-user .bp-wrap{
	display:flex;
	flex-flow: row wrap;
}
.bp-user .item-body{
	width: 100%;
}
.bp-user .bp-wrap .main-navs{
	width: 100%;
	order:2;
}

Please put that into Appearance->Customize->Additional CSS and it will move the main nav after the content(The above css does it for all contents including activity etc., if you only want it for profile, Please do let me know ).

Brajesh

Hi @coolhunt,
Thank you.

I am sorry but I won’t be able to provide a preview currently. For the 2nd theme onwards, we can do an early preview.

Thank you
Brajesh

[Brajesh Singh]

You are welcome 🙂

[Brajesh Singh]

Hi,
Thank you for the patience. Please upgrade now.

The issue was the plugin included/used an older version of simple html dom library. I upgraded to a compatible one and it works.

Hi,
Thank you.
I did not test it on 7.3 as my primary goal was fixing layout.
Will check today and push a fix for the 7.3 too.

Regards
Brajesh

[Brajesh Singh]

Hi,
What is the issue you are facing? Can you please post the error?
I have fixed compatibility with BP Nouveau for it and will be glad to add a fix for the 7.3 too.

You can find the update version here

Hi,
I am not aware of any free theme currently but it is going to change in 2020.

We are looking forward to change this completely from 15th January onward. We will provide you with multiple free themes(1st releasing on 15th January). I am looking forward to help make BuddyPress experience pleasant and smooth.

Regards
Brajesh

[Brajesh Singh]

Hi
We are in the process of releasing a free theme for BuddyPress which should compete with any available premium theme on design/quality.

Since the holidays are here, we are scheduling for 15th January. I am hoping to encourage BuddyPress adoption with our free theme.

Hi Michael,
Thank you for sharing the insight and the goals. It helped.

I agree with your business objectives and the fork makes sense for your customer.

I am sure looking forward to see how your team speeds up BuddyPress. It should be easy for the community to port that to BuddyPress core.

I have been an admirer of your designs. Wish you and your team all the best!

@coolhunt,
I agree with you on the issues with BuddyPress. I hope that things will change in future.
Please do note that number of plugins is not an issue(even if it is 50 or 100). It is a misconception propagated by few. It is the quality of the plugins. Number of plugins don’t have much effect on speed. Keeping it to the minimum helps you remain secure( low number means lower chance of having an insecure plugin) and easy management of the plugins.

Regards
Brajesh

@coolhunt
Thank you for the kind words. I am honoured 🙂

Hi Michael,
Thank you for sharing your views here.

Since the forking of BuddyPress, can you please provide what kind of new feature other than merging your own/others plugin into the bundle have your team added. Also, is there any future plan available for the platform?

It is nice to know that you plan to open the platform for contribution in future. I have tried your releases and I am still wondering what prevented you/your team from contributing to BuddyPress? Did you try to contribute or was there some other reason for fork?

It will help understand the decision better.

Thank you
Brajesh
