The simplest way to disable, at the moment, is to squelch the update_user_meta() call. Untested, but something like this should work:


add_filter( 'update_user_metadata', function( $should_update, $object_id, $meta_key ) {
if ( 'last_activity' === $meta_key ) {
return false;
}

return $should_update;
}, 10, 3 );

I’m afraid I haven’t ever used any of the available group chat plugins for BuddyPress, but a web search shows that a number are available: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=buddypress+group+chat&t=ffab&ia=web

There should be nothing additional required – no registration or enqueuing.

It looks like I made a typo in my original comment – I doubled the /buddypress/ path. Here’s the proper destintation in your theme:


wp-content/themes/your-theme/buddypress/members/single/profile/profile-loop.php


Sorry about that!

Excellent! Good luck with your project 🙂

If you need to do extensive customization to the appearance of the user profile, I’d recommend overriding BP’s templates in your child theme. For example, you can copy the file wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/profile/profile-loop.php to wp-content/themes/your-theme/buddypress/buddypress/members/single/…[Read more]

508 usually means that the hosting provider has put a limit on the resources available to your account. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20040307/how-to-fix-the-508-resource-limit-is-reached-error-in-wordpress. BuddyPress does generally require more resources (RAM, MySQL I/O) than a standard WP installation. I’d suggest reaching out to your…[Read more]

Applying https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/11750 should fix the problem. Note that this change is in bp-messages/bp-messages-template.php, *not* notices-loop.php. There should be no need to reapply these changes after BuddyPress 3.0, where the fix will become part of the BP release.

Here’s some info on migrating vBulletin data to bbPress, which will get your content and users in. https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/importing-data/import-forums/vbulletin/

Hi @gregthebuzz – You might have better luck moving some of your logic into BP_Group_Extension, which does most of the template-related work for you. See https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/group-extension-api/. The display() method is where the content for your public-facing tab will go, while the edit parameter will help you configure what…[Read more]

Hi @billybelly – It’s difficult for us on the buddypress.org forums to provide concrete advice on a non-free product, because we don’t have access to test it. If you paid for the UX Builder project, then they ought to be the ones providing you with support.

That being said, it’s possible that BP templates are inherently incompatible with this…[Read more]

It’s a bit hard to tell what’s going on without being able to log in and see exactly what your users are seeing.

I suggest logging in as a non-admin, then right-clicking the space where the avatar should appear. Select ‘Inspect Element’, and then browse through the developer tools to see whether the avatar is actually in the source. If it is, but…[Read more]

Hi @demonos – Please understand that everyone who responds to things on these forums does so as a volunteer. You can help to decrease overall response time by helping a user or two yourself 🙂

The following bits should be enough to reenable wp-signup.php:

Hi @datenfresser – You can customize the template by overriding the template file in your child theme. Copy the file wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/messages/messages-loop.php to wp-content/themes/[your-theme]/buddypress/members/single/messages/messages-loop.php, and make your modifications to the new…[Read more]

Ah, interesting.

1. If you’ve got access (through the mysql command line tool, or through PHPMyAdmin, check the character set and collation https://makandracards.com/makandra/2531-show-the-character-set-and-the-collation-of-your-mysql-tables There may be something funny going on there.

2. Do you have the same problem with other content? Can you…[Read more]

It’s not possible to use a regular BP profile field to keep track of data changes over time. BP doesn’t keep records of old profile field values – it only stores the most recent one.

There are a number of ways you could accomplish it. If you had the technical know-how, you could build a tool that hooks into XProfile and syncs user-entered data to…[Read more]

Be sure you’re looking at the View All tab.

Some things to check:

1. Check the timestamps at Dashboard > Activity. Are they off as well?

2. Are in timezone UTC-5 (US Eastern)? Just so we have a better understanding of what’s going on.

3. You say the “server time” is “set correctly”. Can you say more about what this means?

4. Are timestamps for WP content (like posts and comments)…[Read more]

Pas de problème 🙂

You can pass user IDs into bp_has_members() like this:


$custom_ids = my_custom_ids( 'country', 'usa' );
$has_members_args = array(
'include' => $custom_ids,
);
if ( bp_has_members() ) {
...
}
