In order: yes, not yet (https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3460), no, and I expect BuddyPress 1.6 will be in a beta in within a couple of weeks.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

If I had any ideas, I’d share them. Is your site public? Can you share a link?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

If action is blank, the form submits to the current URL. We nee more details about your site; what theme and plugins are you running? Have you got a link to your site so we can try to signup?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

No, don’t make a direct SQL query. Use that function in the first example.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Can you share an example link from the emails?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

What theme? Can you share a link to your site?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Never edit core :'(

I think you need to look to implement this pay wall at a lower level, because right now (if it were working), it wouldn’t block anything if the user entered the URL directly, or perhaps wasn’t using JavaScript.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Wporg is the better place. You’re asking a multisite question, and BuddyPress is after all just a plugin.

This may be possible with a domain mapping plugin, or you may need to use a multinetwork configuration; again, not sure.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Where is it displaying this? Is it a custom theme?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

That profile field is mandatory and cannot be deleted.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

I saw a trac ticket about this (yours?) but if you have no idea how to recreate it, it makes it hard for anyone else to figure out how to recreate. I’ve never seen it before, so I don’t have any ideas… yet

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

That particular commit made it into BP 1.5.3. What versions do you run, Mikey3D?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

BuddyPress.org doesn’t support avatar uploads. We ought to really remove that option.

Use testbp.org to see an out-of-the-box BuddyPress site.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Have you enabled BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG by chance?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

The “log out function” is part of WordPress. What do you mean?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

BuddyPress is trying to be the best social platform available. We’re not about building databases of spammers.

Be assured, we feel your pain and have given/continue to give considerable thought to managing spam content in BuddyPress.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

BP has always used WP’s login system; we’ve never implemented are own.

WP Core has a difference in username requirements depending if you’re on multisite or not-multisite. As BP started out life as a WPMU plugin, for some reason, we ended up with their username validation logic copied into BP. I believe this was because it wasn’t possible to utilise WPMU’s directly (not sure).

In BP 1.6 (what we’re working on now), we removed the validation logic we have, so it will definitely fall back to whatever logic is present in WP Core.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Hmm. Interesting.

Can you create an enhancement ticket over at http://buddypress.trac.WordPress.org/? Thanks.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Please don’t create posts asking people to look at other posts. You could have bumped your original post.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Assuming you mean a white screen (rather than a 404 page) — is a PHP error. Look in your web server’s error log for clues, or ask you host to do this for you.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Because that plugin hasn’t been updated since September 2010? https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-private-community/

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

In BP 1.6, we’ve added profile field visibility (privacy); ‘anyone’, ‘logged in users’, ‘my friends’. Try it out on testbp.org when you edit your profile. Not quite what you’ve asked for, but it should open up a new range of possibilities for plugin authors to filter things further.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

If you’re referring to bbPress 1.x plugins, I’d strongly recommend against it (most of them wouldn’t work, anyway).

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Achievements wasn’t designed with being a virtual currency in mind, so maybe use Cubepoints.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 8 months ago]

Lots.
