So, I can´t remember exactly how, also an IT workmate helped me solved it. Basically, we compared the database with a backup to find the missing tables. Then he created these manually. There is a database diagram here in case you are not sure about how to create these https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/buddypress-database-diagram/.

The thing is you need some mysql knowledge for that. I hope this helps.

Thanks, I haven’t found an easier solution. This is a very annoying missing function in Buddypress. To delete all messages by a user should be available due to increasing spam bots these days.

I am also using plugins like reCaptcha, WPBruiser, and Aksimet, which stops spammers, but we still get one every now and then.

@pixieblitz I am having the same problem. I marked a user as spam and deleted it, but messages sent byt the user are still visible on users activity. Very annoying.

Did you find a workaround?

Hi @warezit thank you for sharing this. I happen to have the same exact problem. I used WPOptimize plugin to delete unused tables in my database. I may have deleted the tables dedicated to store Buddypress messages. Users can’t send private messages and admins can’t send site-wise notices.

I wanted to confirm the steps to did to solve this. First you deleted the plugin, then backup database, then search and delete bp_ in wp_options table.

Last, you re-installed plugin.

Did you lose any data in the process. I have working site with many users.

I am having the same problem. I can’t add notifications to my site. I have access to the setting, I write the message and when I click Publish nothing happens.

I found the problem… I was disabling access to the dashboard to users

function disable_dashboard() {
    if (current_user_can('subscriber') && is_admin()) {
        wp_redirect(home_url());
        exit;
    }
}
add_action('admin_init', 'disable_dashboard');

I removed that and it is working now. Not sure about the reason but I was debugging commenting stuff and that did the trick.

In the members page I am getting this console error

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'contents' of undefined
    at HTMLDivElement.<anonymous> (buddypress-nouveau.min.js?ver=4.3.0:1)
    at HTMLDivElement.d.complete (jquery.js?ver=1.12.4-wp:4)

I think this might be it, but not sure how to solve it. Can it be the jquery version of my theme?

I am having the same issue

[@marbaque Participant 5 years, 6 months ago]

I am having the same issue. Have you found a solution. Members are visible to admins or editor roles but not to subscribers.
