Sounds like you’re using an older version of WordPress.

Deactivate BuddyPress and upgrade WordPress:

It’s already been filed as a bug here:

Echoing the sentiments for character count as well!

No need to hack BP.

Put the following in your theme’s functions.php:
function ray_bp_get_send_public_message_link() {
global $bp;

return wp_nonce_url( $bp->loggedin_user->domain . $bp->activity->slug . '/?r=' . $bp->displayed_user->userdata->user_login );
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_send_public_message_link', 'ray_bp_get_send_public_message_link'…[Read more]

I believe this is fixed in trunk.

If you want to use a WP network install, you need to install WP in the root and not a subdirectory:

Read the red notice.

Just to give a quick summary: – current standalone bbPress plugins are possible to use with BuddyPress, but they need to be ported over to WordPress/BuddyPress. Check out Rich’s BP Forum Extras plugin, which combines a few of them: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-forum-extras/ – forum editor tutorial:…[Read more]

Thanks for the fix, @herostrat.

I’ve posted a patch for issue on the BP Trac:
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2556

Thanks again!

@cronikeys – Thanks for the fix. Was just notified of this post now!

If it separates by commas, just do a str_replace.
echo str_replace( ',', '', bp_get_the_profile_field_value() );

@stoi2m1 – Did you view the link I posted above? The info on the page tells you to use the “Mail From” plugin:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/

Try that and see if emails are sent out.

You can temporarily fix private messaging by overriding the username filter. See #2583 for hints.

No problem! So does that mean you fixed your problem? 😉

Can you try activating the BuddyPress Default theme to see if these problems go away?

Re: #4 – I just signed up for your site and it did not redirect me to the control panel after logging in.

I’ve experienced a bit of success with AVH First Defense Against Spam:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/avh-first-defense-against-spam/

Checks the user’s IP against StopForumSpam and Project Honeypot (with an API key) before parsing the entire page.
This won’t stop human spammers but every little bit helps.

No need to bump the topic multiple times. If you are not sure how to patch and you feel a little adventurous, make the changes manually: https://trac.buddypress.org/attachment/ticket/2661/2661.002.patch If you have access to edit plugins, login to your WP dashboard and navigate to “Plugins > Editor” and select BuddyPress in the dropdown menu…[Read more]
