Blocking isn’t something that’s in core. Are you using a plugin?

You will still need to define the BP_FRIENDS_SLUG constant unfortunately.

Hey @ryuunosukemiyosaki

I believe there’s some slugs still hard coded. Take “change-cover-image” for example, here’s where it’s specified in the code base:

https://github.com/buddypress/BuddyPress/blob/2.8.2/src/bp-xprofile/classes/class-bp-xprofile-component.php#L252

You’ll notice it isn’t filterable or override-able.

It will depend on how the bb media plugin uploads the files. It’s probably worth asking the author of the plugin this same question.

The easiest way to do this is to edit the home.php file. You’ll need to comment out bp_get_displayed_user_nav() and the related markup.

Ref: your-child-theme/buddypress/members/single/home.php

So, basically just download a whole load and then open them up and have a look?

If you want to know for sure then I guess you’ll need to do this.

My guess is there is a php closing tag followed by a newline in one php file.

This is likely the cause. The next step is finding where. How do you know it’s a BuddyPress issue?

You can get the value of an xProfile field in BuddyPress quite easily but you will need to use code. Take a look at this article to get started:

Displaying Extended Profile Fields on Member Profiles

This question is forum related so try asking over at bbPress.

bp_search_form() isn’t really used these days. Try bp_directory_members_search_form() instead. The function will output a search form so no need to use echo.

Hi thejameshardy

Which file are you adding bp_search_form() to?

This isn’t possible in BuddyPress “out-of-the-box”. You’ll need to find a plugin or introduce some custom code.

You should have them in your plugin folder. Try looking here wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress

You can check if either of these two directories exist inside the theme:

buddypress
community

If either of these exist, the content inside is specific to BuddyPress and will likely be custom.

Cause using hooks is more sustainable and less likely to have conflicts in the future?

Possibly but the template hierarchy is integral to BuddyPress and use is encouraged. If you find a water-tight alternative way of doing it then by all means use that approach instead.

@cameronjonesweb

Why are you unhooking the reg form from the content? I think the BuddyPress template hierarchy can help you here.

Template Hierarchy

You can just nuke the reg form from your-child-theme/buddypress/members/register.php and then add your custom form.

I want it to show the welcome page, which I have associated with the Buddypress register page….

Can you describe what the welcome page is and how you’ve associated it with the reg page?

Could it be that you’re logged in when accessing these pages? That would explain why you’re redirected to /members/

Hi @rhj4

Autocomplete, by default, will suggest friends only. Could it be that “donna” is a friend but “nberg” isn’t?

If this is the issue, you can tell the autocomplete script to look at all members instead of just friends by adding this line to your bp-custom.php file:

define( 'BP_MESSAGES_AUTOCOMPLETE_ALL', true );

This means your site is hitting a resource limit, set by your hosting company. You should contact your host and ask if anything can be done to boost the available resources.
