Hi @namrons

This will most likely need a Trac ticket. Feel free to create one here:

I’m not sure which membership plugins work well with BP as I’ve not used any but I’m sure some of the guys on here will be able to recommend?

As @r-a-y points out in this thread, is_buddypress() is a good catch all for BuddyPress pages. So, you could put something like this in your theme’s functions.php file:

function my_function() {
if (…[Read more]

Hi @chiefalchemist,

Should I add a new Role and have a cap (say) ‘employee”? Or remove caps from the Contributor role?

Both are completely valid approaches but perhaps creating an ’employee’ role with custom capabilities would make more sense?

Regarding the use of a membership plugin, you could go down that route, else the current_user_can() and…[Read more]

I take it verify_email_change is definitely appended to your URL?

Hi @manag99

This can definitely be implemented with BuddyPress but you’ll need to use plugins and or custom code because what you need to happen doesn’t happen out-of-the-box. Try searching the WordPress Plugin Directory for individual plugins and then try them out on a test install.

Hi @ivanguinea

Can you provide some more details on what you are doing. What exactly isn’t working?

I think you guys have a point and agree almost fully with what you say. Where my own personal view may differ slightly is on using usernames as login credentials. I think it’s acceptable for the following reasons:

As you’re aware, as with any system that requires user access, things are a trade-off. Security has to be balanced against…[Read more]

I think the idea is to favourite the actual activity item. So if a member creates multiple activity items, you may choose to favourite none, some or all of those activity items.

Hi @jessicana

Some communities might not necessarily want ‘like’ functionality by default. The ability to favorite is already available though?

The best bet is to style the ‘like’ button yourself to match your theme’s styles.

Hi @yogeshojha11

Can you explain what you’re trying to do? Profile photos (avatars) can be changed very easily without the need for a plugin.

Hi @prometheus-fire

The core team are aware of the problem. See here for the fix:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5888

Hi @marcella1981

Any chance you could list the issues you were having in a new thread? 2.1 is very new so documenting any problems you’re having is V helpful to the core team

Hi @willandmae

Take a look at BuddyPress Like:

Hi @adjunkten

Your path seems slightly off. It should be wp-content/themes/your-theme/buddypress/members/single/

And I think the file you need to edit is member-header.php

@shanebp just like He-Man? 🙂

Hi @dinoooop

To my knowledge, this shouldn’t be happening. Can you provide some more info about your set-up? Theme? Plugins used?

Hi @vicente-vial

The link you’ve provided to 99designs seems to be broken?

@r-a-y Theme My Login provides that functionality if the security module is enabled. I’ve used it and it seems to work quite well.

Ref: https://wordpress.org/plugins/theme-my-login/

Whilst you’re completely right in what you say (WordPress actually encourages site administrators to use a different username to “admin’), this sort of thing is hard to avoid. Facebook, Twitter and the like all allow users to login with their username which is easily guessable after visiting that particular user’s profile page. Don’t forget…[Read more]
