OK finally done with the function to get what I was looking for;

/* to get total update counts by group id*/

function get_total_updates_count($group_id){

	global $wpdb;
 
	$total_updates = $wpdb->get_var( "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM wp_bp_activity 
					  WHERE component = 'groups' 
					  AND   type = 'activity_update'
					  AND   item_id = '$group_id' 
                                         ");
									  
	return $total_updates;
}

And to use in groups loop you can do as following;

<?php echo get_total_updates_count(bp_get_group_id()); ?>

Hope this would help someone in community.

Good to know that your issue is resolved.

Sure you can change that link as well as content of confirmation email by adding the following code in you function.php;

add_filter( 'bp_core_signup_send_validation_email_message', 'custom_buddypress_activation_message', 10, 3 );
 

function custom_buddypress_activation_message( $message, $user_id, $activate_url ) {
    $user = get_userdata( $user_id );
    $activate_url = 'http://www.domain.de'; // change this link to what ever you want.
    return "Hi $user->user_login,
Thanks for registering! To complete the activation of your account please click the following link:
$activate_url 
Thanks,
Jesin";
}

Try deactivating all plugins and then check if this issue still continues.

Explanation:
Mostly it happens if some plugin is interfering in registration process because the way BuddyPress registers a user is a bit different then what happens in WordPress by default for which usually plugins are designed.

This might help someone. Have made the following simple script to get online status within members loop.

$user_id = bp_get_member_user_id();
$status = 'offline' ;

$last_activity = bp_get_user_last_activity( $user_id );

$exact_time = time();

$time_ago = date("Y-m-d h:i:s",$exact_time – 3 * 60); // time 3 minutes ago

if( $last_activity > $time_ago ){ // check if user activity for last few minutes
$status = 'online' ;
} 

You can use it within while loop of members-loop.php.

Hope this would help.
Thanks!

Thanks Trinzia!

$user_id = bp_loggedin_user_id();
$bp_city = bp_get_profile_field_data('field=City&user_id='.$user_id);

This worked for me.

I think to avoid conflict you can add

add_theme_support( 'buddypress' );

in your child theme function.php file.

For more info visit the following link.

BP Theme Authors: make sure your theme registers 'buddypress' support
