I ran across this the other day, and it’s been ticketed and will be looked into:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6167

Ah oh, slightly harder possibly, try checking through the available tags though, something is probably achievable that is simpler than your initial attempt.

🙂 did you check the BP codex before embarking on above?

The docs is first port of call, we attempt to document as much as possible there on an ongoing basis, some pages are undergoing re-freshing & updating but still provide useful reference like this page:

Template Tag Reference

Where you might try bp_is…[Read more]

Yep we thank r-a-y for his due diligence on the mater and for patching WP core, which was committed a few days back so will roll out with next WP version.

Closing this thread as resolved then.

> and it must NOT be compulsory to join the group for the public groups. Why can’t this be done?
Perhaps it can be, suggest it on a trac enhancement ticket if you feel that strongly, by default groups need members, BP list participants in a group or at least can track things if people are matched with a group.

What problem? the initial comment is along the right lines Groups require members you can’t post or partake in them unless you join the group, perhaps take up the suggestion to create a forum outside of groups?

@peter-hamilton Hmm that used always to be the process, updating or posting to a group automatically joined you to the group if it was…[Read more]

Yes you can create a single members page that exist at say the same level as standard WP pages and into that bring various elements from the user account to create a sort of single user landing page, doing this will depend on how comfortable with coding you are, as you are starting to get into the realms of custom work here.

BuddyPress certainly…[Read more]

You need to read the BP codex, documentation should always be your primary port of call first, then you’ll have a better idea of what’s possible and how things work. You can copy BP templates over to your theme and create versions that are full template files – as opposed to the normal template file which as you spotted doesn’t have the header or…[Read more]

You only need a member with the most basic knowledge of css to be workaround that; CSS is not the correct way to ‘remove’ something.

You should really overload/copy the activity index.php file to your theme or child theme and edit the include line that calls the post-form.php file, and remove it now the main activity directory won’t have the…[Read more]

As henrywright says please open a ticket and give as much detail on your theme and the issues your users are having, also please run a test beforehand in a stock WP theme and perhaps one with JS disabled.

A quick check with ‘Fangs’ didn’t show any obvious issues, the links are there, but that isn’t a particularly detailed test.

If we can gather…[Read more]

Have to admit to personally feeling as though the <!-- more --> construct being slightly redundant, do you really need to use it? Could you not use hand crafter excerpts instead to gain control on exactly what your excerpts display?

Please avoid opening duplicate posts. Closing please continue in:

Guessing this is the same as this ticket you opened?
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6238

Probably best to keep to one thread initially rather than opening the question in two separate places, and best to begin with the forum until such time as proven to be a bug and confirmed then a ticket can be raised.

How were you managing the…[Read more]

@pete-hudson No problem, just there’s always the danger of splitting responses across threads and becoming difficult to follow, as it happens the ticket has become perhaps more relevant and necessary so going to suggest we now close this thread and everyone can follow along if they want to on the ticket…[Read more]

we are aware of certain issues this has created, but is necessary. Check r-a-ys post a few comments up, he mentions hooking to template_redirect at a higher priority.

bp_is_user() returns true for the users profile or account screens so probably won’t work in this instance, you might try is_buddypress() for a more generic check to see if this is a BP page.

We can’t tell you where to add that though as we simply have no notion of how wishlist is effecting this re-direct, what file, what function etc etc.

The ‘Member Type’ provision is the beginnings of a deeper api, this initial implementation provides developers the means to register a ‘Type’ which can then be used programatically in functions to filter/sort loops etc, I’m afraid at this stage this is not an aspect of BP designed for non developers, you will need some degree of coding skill to…[Read more]

We don’t really have sufficient information to help in any great details, but read this thread and if you’re comfortable editing files follow the suggestion on patching a WP file that r-a-y suggests as this may be the reason you’re having issues.
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/profile-pages-disappeared-after-upgrade-to-2-2/

Do as r-a-y says, the fix is committed to WP core so you can – in theory – update the pertinent file with that fix and allow it to be safely overwritten when next version of WP drops, bp_is_user() was the fix I had to employ to correct sites issues before the WP ticket patch was accepted/committed.
