bp_activity_add() will add an item to the activity stream. It sounds like you want to add a notification. Try bp_notifications_add_notification():

bp_notifications_add_notification

I’ve created a bug report: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7148

I got a new from WordPress and I finally got in

Great 🙂

Can you post your code?

Can you log in to wordpress.org?

That’s strange! The credentials to use are the same as those you use here in the forum so if you can log in here then you should be able to log in there. Can you try clearing your cookies?

@henrywright but apparently I need to use bp_setup_nav to add a navigation tab

Yes, that’s right, you do.

This is one of those situations where you seem to be doing everything right but a bit of digging is needed to see what’s actually wrong.

The Change Default Members Profile Landing Tab article will help you do that.

I just tried (with the same details I use here in the forum) and was able to log in successfully. Are you still having trouble?

In that case, this could be a bug. It seems the apostrophe isn’t being handled properly upstream. Can you open a ticket for this on Trac?

So, how can I solve this and have “keast’s tube-nosed fruit bat” show?

You can use double quotes instead of single quotes to wrap the string of text. So for example:

'value' => "keast's tube-nosed fruit bat",

The only difference is the hooks you’re using:

bp_setup_nav
bp_before_member_header_meta

I expect the problem might be related to when bp_setup_nav is executed?

Hi @virre131

This feature is called root profiles and it can be enabled by adding the following to your wp-config.php file:

define( 'BP_ENABLE_ROOT_PROFILES', true );

Hi @dainismichel

What set-up do you use?

Thanks for the update @antdevine, glad you fixed the issue.

This sounds like a problem with the edit profile screen rather than your registration hook.

I don’t have a Windows phone to test this but feel free to open a Trac ticket to report the issue:

buddypress.org is open source so feel free to check out the theme’s code.

For a recruitment site, can buddy press have different account types for employers and employees?

Yes. Check out Member Types:

You could be using the thumb sized avatar. Check your theme to make sure the full sized image is being used. bp_core_fetch_avatar() is the function used by BuddyPress to display avatars but there’s also get_avatar() so check for that too (it’s a WordPress function).
