@martohar could be a theme issue or conflict with another plugin. Check the following first
1. Go to wp-admin > Settings > BuddyPress – Components tab and make sure that
Extended Profiles, Account Settings, and Notifications are checked and settings are saved.
2. What theme are you using? Change theme to Twenty Twenty and check if you can see content for each of the Profile, Notification, and Setting tabs assuming components mentioned in #1 above are checked. If you can see the content for each, then it’s a theme issue. Contact your theme developer.
3. Alternatively, there are some known plugin issues. Provide the list of plugins enabled in your installation for further assistance.

@ayhanizmir Looks more like a theme issue to me. Change to default theme like Twenty Twenty and check if issue is resolved. If it is, then you should be able to get support from the theme author.

[@mercime]

@flpagan Can you clarify whether you’re referring to the theme’s header or a default group’s or member’s profile header/ cover image?
If you’re referring to the theme’s header, please contact theme author.
If you’re referring to the cover images for groups or members, try this https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-cover-photo/ – haven’t used it myself. Good luck.

@lexpaulz44 You can either deactivate the plugin via wp-admin or SFTP https://wordpress.org/support/article/managing-plugins/#uninstalling-plugins

Your theme’s grimlock-buddypress plugin set style of the BuddyPress select form with no wiggle room for the font-size they set on the select options. Following is a quick fix. You should ask your premium theme author where you should add the style fix as we have no access to the paid theme. The theme author should provide you with free support for the premium theme.

#buddypress .standard-form select {
        padding: .3rem 1.25rem;
}

[@mercime]

@chuck141 and what did the theme dev say? As @iamthewebb mentioned above, those do no show up for users who are not logged in. If you change to Twenty Twenty theme, do the buttons still show up when you’re logged out?

@angierose You need to provide more info about your installation for us to help you. https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/

> how to get the excerpt from a blog post to appear in the BuddyPress activity stream without displaying the Divi Shortcode.

@angelajean Excerpts of published blog posts do appear in the BP activity stream naturally in any theme, and any blog URL you post in the status update in the activity stream has a very nice excerpt as well, so not sure why you would need a plugin for showing blog excerpts using Divi. .
Unfortunately, Divi’s a premium theme that we don’t have access to so I would have to refer you back to that theme’s support forums where you could ask them why you need to add/buy a plugin to show a normal blog excerpt in your activity stream.

Cannot say with just your screenshot whether it’s the theme or the plugin that’s causing the issue. Here are some links which can help you identify the CSS selector to adjust line-height and/or margin of your select fields.

@robbyyy21 You will have to override your theme’s styles on the input fields via child theme or Additional CSS field (if any) in your theme

@chris98 Unfortunately, I haven’t seen a free solution for a mobile app for Buddypress The premium https://apppresser.com/ has support for BuddyPress and WooCommerce among others. Even if you find a free solution, in order to launch an app to the iOS App Store and/or Google Play store, you must pay every year for a developer license for either.

[@mercime]

@kjcarleo The easiest way without going to tinker with the database https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-switching/

@mike80222 Yes it will be posted after we close the survey.

@hairbeautytraining Check if you can create the pages and associate those pages in Settings > BuddyPress.

If that doesn’t work, I recommend that you go to the premium theme’s page in themeforest. On the page’s sidebar, click on the Comments link and search for BuddyPress in that new page for answers or ask your question. I guess that’s where they provide support for their theme.

[@mercime]

@stellamariee Go to Pages > All Pages then find your datenschutz or members page and click on the Edit link under that. Click on Page Attributes under Documents in right hand sidebar. Under Template, see if you can change it to something like Page with sidebar or something similar. Sometimes, themes have default layouts of Page with no sidebars, so if you want sidebars, you’d need to set it to that page template. Good luck.

> I’ve just asked in Slack in Formidable and they have said that Formidable works with the WordPress user tables. So should BuddyPress not just find those fields?

If that’s how they answered, then it looks to me that you would have to hire a developer to integrate your premium form plugin with BuddyPress. Have you tried searching their channel with regards to possible solutions with BP integration like another premium form plugin does? On our end, we have no access to their premium plugin and I’m reasonably sure that some of their clients have asked about support for BP.

[@mercime]

See https://github.com/buddypress/BP-REST/issues/312

[@mercime]

@kingfisher64 Not sure if that plugin has integration with BuddyPress. Since that is a paid plugin, you should be able to ask at the plugin’s forums whether it is compatible with BuddyPres. If so, how to go about the integration with BP registration. Good luck!

[@mercime]

@cmsplay Glad it worked out for you 😀

Re font size smaller, just add the following just under themargin-bottom: 24px; :
font-size: 12px; // or whatever size you want

In general, the key difference is the focused discussion and engagement found using Group Forums with the bbPress forums. Just like you see here in our support forums. The good thing is that bbPress plugin has the same lead developer and you can be assured of the seamless integration between BuddyPress and bbPress.

BuddyPress Sitewide/Group Activity streams are automatically generated content on all actions happening sitewide/group like a new member joining the group, member status updates, new forum topics (if bbPress is activated) etc. See https://codex.buddypress.org/administrator-guide/activity-streams/ So while you can , favorite, delete, or comment on each generated activity update, you can see it’s miles different from having a forum in your site.

I hope that helps you and good luck on your BuddyPress community!

@izzethan You can disable the admin toolbar for anyone who is not logged in simply by going to Settings > BuddyPress > Options tab, then make sure that “Toolbar – Show the Toolbar for logged out users” is not checked.

[@mercime]

@shonty Is this a new installation or is this an old install where you changed from another theme or imported forums from e.g. phpbb to bbPress, etc.?

Just like shanebp, I cannot replicate the issue as well.
Do provide more info about your installation – https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/

[@mercime]

@rootcr8r Could be caused by a variety of reasons. Have you tried changing your theme to the Twenty Nineteen theme to see if issue is resolved? If not, then have you tried disabling all plugins except BuddyPress while on the Twenty Nineteen theme?

[@mercime]

@n33d See WordPress 4-year old ticket re updating to jQuery 3+ will cause breaking changes https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/37110
When WP core upgrades, so will BuddyPress. In the meantime, we have to use what’s in WP core.

[@mercime]

Hi @cmsplay,

You can change the bottom margin of the paragraphs by adding the following style in your theme/child theme:

.activity-list .activity-item .activity-content p {
    margin-bottom: 24px;  /* Or whatever size you want */
}

As for the forums, bbPress is compatible with BuddyPress. See https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/

[@mercime]

@mbigler
– What have you done so far to resolve the issue? What theme are you using? Have you changed to a default theme to see if that resolves the issue? Have tried deactivating other plugins to see if there are conflicts preventing account deletion?
– Where is BuddyPress activated in your multisite, in the main site or in subsite/subdomain? Have you enabled MULTIBLOG or is it basic BP in multisite?

Help us help you by providing more info about your setup. https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/
