If you want to disable BP’s registration and user account activation pages: In your functions.php or in a custom plugin:
`remove_action( ‘wp’, ‘bp_core_screen_signup’, 3 );`
Or, as an alternative, I want a Register page that does the following:
– Option to use Janrain Engage
– uses reCAPTCHA or an arithmetic challenge
– forces minimum password length and displays password strength/match
– Shows disclaimer text, with option to require users check box to Accept Agreement
– Shows privacy policy text, with option to require users check box to Accept Agreement
– sends customized activation email to non-Janrain registrations
– sends customized username/password email to non-Janrain registrations
I have all of this capability now, just not with BuddyPress.
If anyone knows of an existing solution for doing this with the BP login and registrations, that is fine, too.
Thanks
Thank you, I will try that. Should I expect to encounter any problems with account creation? When I was searching I found a post that indicated there might be such issues, but it was from several months ago.
I added the line to my functions.php as suggested. The login link (wp-login.php?action=register) redirects to the home page now. The WP login works fine, though.
I’ve deactivated all plugins except the BP core. Made sure I’m not logged in, and cache/cookies have been cleared out.
Anything else I should check?
Greatly appreciate the assistance…
If anyone would be so kind as to offer a possible solution, I would be very grateful.
I’m getting the same results—adding the suggested remove_action causes registration to redirect to the front page.
I am still quite stuck on this. Poking around inside the files, but not really sure what I’m looking at here…. I’m server/network guy.
Do I need to edit the functions.php file?
I’ve verified it is related to the default Buddypress theme. I switched to a different BP-compatible theme, and I’m able to load the WP register page.
what theme did you switch to?
Just curious, what is the reason to use WP registration?
@adamrice I switched to Suffusion.
@modemlooper Please see my second post. I’ll use the BP registration if it’s the easier way to get that functionality.
You can get all that working on the BP registration form.
The requiring x amount of numbers for a password can be done with JavaScript
Excellent. Thank you all. I will check those out.
All is going okay so far, except the math challenge question.
The BP Humanity plugin only shows a static question. It doesn’t change the question when the page reloads.
Does anyone know of a BP-compatible plugin or script to give me a random math question, like the one shown here?
