Giacomo replied to the topic Changing usernames doesn't change member profile URLs in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 9 years, 11 months ago
Just an update in case someone is googling the same thing
(at least for my install) the slug of each member is not user_login but the user_nicename field.
So changing that will change the user profile URLThx again for the hint!

Hi Dan!
Thanks for the hint.If I use that plugin it works
If I do change the username programmatically ($wpdb->update) it doesn’t update the user URL… will try to investigate why 🙂Cheers

Hi!
I’m adding BP to a WP install with hundreds of users (and these users have have their email as username)
As a result member URL are “disclosing” users email and I’ve to change that.
(e.g. domain.com/members/giacomogmail-com <— (for: giacomo@gmail.com)An acceptable solution for us would be to have a “prefix + USER ID” in the slug

Hi all
I’m running the latest WP and BP version.During the group creation process after writing group title+description I don’t see any of the text of step 2
If I press next-step I get an error “Are you sure you want to do this?”The error persists after disabling all plugins but BuddyPress and switching to a default theme.

BBPress 2.5.3

The issue is that in the list of forums to pick I can see forums belonging to private groups I’m not part of

In the shared hosting category I can recommend SiteGround for the excellent support (that’s probably what you need the most in your situation by the way)

Giacomo replied to the topic Planning a BPress site with SMS Posting? in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 5 months ago
As far as I know there’s no plugin for this quite advanced feature
You would have to set-up an inbound number with Twilio.com (or similar service) and then create a plugin to fetch incoming SMS and check that the telephone number belong to an existing member.Good luck!

Giacomo replied to the topic Personalized Newsletters in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 6 months ago
I’m not aware of any plugins doing this
If you can develop it you should probably hook to “xprofile_updated_profile” so that every time a user update his profile you send him the list of other users with the same value in the inspiration field
Hope this helps at least a little! -
Giacomo replied to the topic Custom User Roles in Buddypress in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 6 months ago
Forum functionality is provided by bbPress. You should ask in the forum over there you’ll get better support: https://bbpress.org/forums/
Anyway with some custom coding it shouldn’t be a problem to meet those requirements. -

Hey Ben
Auto embeds are a WordPress feature: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/embeds/
You can disable them site-wide with a filter: http://wpengineer.com/2487/disable-oembed-wordpress/

You can edit the functions.php file of your theme to change the length of the excerpt.
Make sure to backup functions.php before doing anything. And do the changes in a test server first.This is the code I just tested on twentytwelve and it does the job (can be refined though).
Just copy paste the code below into functions.php and change 9999…[Read more]

Giacomo replied to the topic Extra pic at the bottom of a profile in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 10 years, 6 months ago
It’s probably because of the theme you’re using
If I were you I would try to activate another theme for example twentytwelve https://wordpress.org/themes/twentytwelve
With that you won’t have this kind of issues and you’ll still be able to customise the look and feel to make it looks very similar to what you have now

Hi Rich
To do this you must know some HTML and be able to edit a theme file directly via FTP.
Go to your theme folder and open functions.php and copy paste this at the bottom of it.
add_action('bp_before_register_page', 'custom_register_content');
function custom_register_content() {
?>Your custom register text here. You can add images if…[Read more]
