@danbp thanks for adding to make a full solution 🙂

For just BuddyPress (not the WordPress side of things), see comment 4 here:

Great 🙂

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Just copy and paste it into your theme’s functions.php file.

It’s always a disappointment when a thread you’ve opened gets closed, especially when your intentions are genuine. That said, the mod offers some great advice which I think will help you find people with similar interests as yourself.

Twitter is another great way to interact with the BuddyPress community. Be sure to hashtag your Tweets with #buddypress related words so people will find you 🙂

Hi @hammed4real101

You should be able to do this:

remove_action( 'bp_core_activated_user', 'bp_core_new_user_activity' );

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Hi @paixaofileto

I’d suggest you contact the theme author asking if they can release an update; making things compatible with BuddyPress.

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Hi @hoseke

Assuming you’re talking about WordPress roles and not BuddyPress member types, then you can do this:

$user = wp_get_current_user();
$user->set_role( 'student' );

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Hi @arzuman26

Try:

echo bp_core_get_user_displayname( bp_displayed_user_id() );

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Hey @marcella1981

Great to see you’re interested in developing BuddyPress themes. It might be worth also asking your question over at wordpress.org; I’m hoping there’ll be some WordPress theme authors who’ll want to turn their hand to themes for BuddyPress.

Hi @arturamirov

See the Languages and Translations article to start with. There’s also the Translator Handbook.

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

@mcuk there must be something conflicting. Try raising the priority from 11 to 999 temporarily just in case you have anything else hooked to login_redirect

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

The code should work now. I can’t see anything wrong with it. Are you sure the user account you’re logging in with has admin capabilities?

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Just to note, is_admin() checks if the dashboard is being viewed, not the user’s capabilities.

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_admin

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Try putting return $redirect_to; after your condition. It’s currently wrapped inside it.

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

This won’t check for ‘normal’ admins unless network mode is disabled.

Try if ( ! current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) ) {

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Hey @danbp,

WordPress provides a function for that. Check out wp_filter_nohtml_kses(). It strips all HTML from the string you provide so there’s no need to use preg_replace().

function hellowed_remove_html_private_messages( $message ) {

    $message = wp_filter_nohtml_kses( $message );
    return $message;
}
add_filter( 'messages_message_content_before_save', 'hellowed_remove_html_private_messages' );

Hi @evilnut

You shouldn’t modify core files because when you upgrade the plugin, your changes will be lost.

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Hi @gsupriya

Can you add some background to your question? It’s not entirely clear what you’re trying to do.

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Hi @rajolalaina

Try this:

BuddyPress Ajax Registration

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

@leanneoleary Try contacting the author @sbrajesh letting him know. I’m sure he’ll be grateful for the bug report and may release a fix.

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Hi @leanneoleary

Try this:

Auto Login the user after account Activation On BuddyPress Based Social Networks

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

Hi @winnergirl

Does BuddyPress require its own independent WP site?

No. BuddyPress works just like any other plugin you might install on your WordPress website. You should just be able to click ‘activate’.

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

@leanneoleary great to hear you found a solution 😀

[@henrywright Moderator 11 years, 6 months ago]

On the registration page, the password shows a strength meter from weak to strong. However, I have had a few testers mention that no matter what password they use the meter always says ‘Weak’

This is definitely a problem. As your testers provide more obscure passwords, the meter should start to increase from weak to strong
