How are members designated ?
Per BP Group ?
Per course ?

So if a student is enrolled in Course A, they are automatically a member of Group A?

It’s not hard to only use a subset of all site members.
You just need to know the parameter that controls which group/course a logged-in member is part of. Then you can adapt this…[Read more]

Plugin name? Link?

First you said:
>I disabled registrations using “Registration is disabled” from the network admin settings/network settings and the spam registrations continue.

Now you say:
>– disable registrations (network admin) and the automatic reg stops

Not sure why things have changed, but it’s a clue.

btw – did you change the salts in your wp-co…[Read more]

As the name suggests, bp_loggedin_user_domain() gets the profile url for a member who is logged in.

It won’t work until the person logs in.

We hope your next question is not:
How can I get the Profile link for a person who is not logged in?

>Forums are enabled (it’s a primary purpose for the site)

Understood, but try deactivating bbPress.
If the spam regs stop, you know it’s a bbPress issue and you can post a bug report on their site.

If they don’t stop, at least you know it’s not bbPress.

>Wow, so basically in order for members to have access to edit all of the fields that they entered while signing up, we have to pay for a custom plugin to get access to those fields?

Let me repeat:
They are accessed on the front-end on a member’s profile page.

Yes.

>do you have a free/cut down/trial version of the plugin

No.

If you have more questions, please contact us directly at PhiloPress.

We have a premium plugin that shows xprofile fields on the User > Edit screen in the Dashboard:

http://www.philopress.com/products/bp-dashboard-user-profile-edit/

It’s the BP-Default theme that won’t exist.

re over-riding templates in your theme:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/child-theme-structure-for-editing-plugin-files/

In your child theme, create a folder called ‘buddypress’.
In that folder, use the same dir structure as bp-legacy and put only the files you want to over-ride the files in bp-legacy.

In your case, the structure would be:
your-theme/buddypress/members/single/profile/edit.php
your-theme/buddypress/members/single/profile/profile-loop.php

>I’m familiar with this text but where does the following text originate from?

Look in members-loop.php for class=”pagination”

Remove it in template over-ride.

The OP is mixing 2 ideas.

1. He complains that filters on saving data aren’t retro-active.
2. He wants the activity strings to be built dynamically instead of hardcoded into the database.

Re 1 – I don’t know of any filter on save that will handle prior existing data. The very idea is unworkable. Instead use a filter on the…[Read more]

Try using ‘alphabetical’ in the basic members loop.
iow. without 2 while ( bp_members() ) : bp_the_member() loops and all the xprofile calls.

That will determine if the problem is in BP or your code.

>I have tried adding the “type=”alphabetical”

It should be
if ( bp_has_members( 'type=alphabetical' ) )

When doing that, you should enable BuddyPress to WordPress profile syncing
via Dashboard > Settings > BuddyPress > Settings

It’s not an error.
There is some debug info being called, probably near the top of members-loop.php.
Look for a var_dump and/or echo statement.

A developer put it there. Ask everyone who worked on your install about it.

Write a filter.

buddypressbp-membersbp-members-functions.php Line 1396

$message = apply_filters( ‘bp_core_signup_send_validation_email_message’, $message, $user_id, $activate_url );

Use something like phpmyadmin to look at the database tables.

There are 4 tables, for example wp_bp_xprofile_fields
The info you need is in one or more of those tables.
