This is something that I’m looking for as well. Any take on this folks?

@imath

In a woocommere environment where users get registered from there, is there a way to have BuddyPress to sync with WP registration info (i.e. first name, last name, change password)?
Can this e bidirectional too?

Thank you!

I came across this discussion here which may help to get answers to this question: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/editing-buddypress-core-files-within-the-childtheme/

Hi @mcuk,

Brilliant! It works well. However, I seem to have had some issues with CSS file which once I reverted to the original, the “Add Friend” button showed up. I was trying to redesign the out-of-the-box BuddyPress, but failed. I need to find a better looking CSS to replace the original. Is there a boxed-up CSS designs out there for BuddyPress that you know of?

Again, thanks for all help!

Since I could not find bp-custom.php and I found out that it not a default file, so the directions here: https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-custom-php/ says to create it manually – which I did and added the above code as you directed. Then I located member-header.php in following directory tree shown below and added your code:
/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/member-header.php

But, I don’t see it working! Did I get the files mixed up?
Thanks for all help.

I guess so….since I don’t see that button on mine! …am I missing something? (of course the “Connect button”)…dahh

Thanks for reply @shanebp . What I mean is, just like Facebook that you can “Add” somebody to you network of friends which they get to accept or deny connection. I don’t know what terms of search should have inputted which as of now I have zero results for my search. Thanks again.

any help or tips here!!?? ….pleeeeezzzz

Thanks @danup,
I looked up that link and in that PO file noticed a whole bunch of “group” word which some are referring to like: #: bp-activity/bp-activity-actions.php:556 bp-groups/bp-groups-actions.php
Now, if I go ahead and change bp-groups.actions.php to #: bp-activity/bp-activity-actions.php:556 bp-groups/bp-campaigns-actions.php it will create a problem…wont it?

Do I need to go line-by-line in that file and change the word(s) where it’s needed without changing the file name as mentioned above?

If so, this is going to be a long process as I can’t use “find and replace” feature to update my change quickly.

Cheers,

Dave

Ohh my…! Thanks very much for quick response @shanebp

Cheers!

My bad! I did not read the entire page 🙁
Thanks again for all help.

Cheers.

[dave8528]

Thanks for the tip. It worked perfectly. Now, should I remove the old folder as you suggested in “template orverload” ?

Regards!

Hi @shanebp,
I’m sorry for the duplication as I thought I had placed in a wrong section the first time and I could not remove it myself.

As for your suggestion, this will still rout users to wp-login page vs where I need it to go to which is “my-account”. How do I change this: <a href="%s"> to be directed to the location I need?
It seems ” %s ” is some sort of shortcode that takes the user to that location. Can I just do <a href="http://mydomain.com/my-account/"> instead?

Thanks again!

Hi Henry,
As suggested, I disabled the plugins that I had installed when started experiencing this issue. It sure thing went away. I started activating them one at the time and testing to see which was the one that created the problem, and next thing I know I have activated them all and system is working fine now!
This is beyond me. I have no idea what just happened. Anyway, I’m good for now and thanks for your suggestions.

Cheers,

Dave
