Yes, you can use a hook in a function bp_activity_add() called the same.

/**
* Fires at the end of the execution of adding a new activity item, before returning the new activity item ID.
*
* @since 1.1.0
*
* @param array $r Array of parsed arguments for the activity item being added.
*/
do_action( 'bp_activity_add', $r );

Currently there is no such plugin. Introducing this feature is quite heavy for the server, so it’s more like a custom solution, ideally with websockets.

We use heartbeat functionality, that gives ability to show a notification about new activity records, but there are no plans to actually update old records due to lots of technical issues and…[Read more]

You can check this plugin: https://premium.wpmudev.org/project/ning-to-buddypress-user-importer/

But before buying it’s better to contact their support and ask about compatibility.

@dkelm,

#7349 is not closed, please check that again. That quote is just my comment (yes, I do have personal opinion) to a ticket.

wontfix is regarding #7341, which is related and I’m not sure about (that’s why I linked to it in #7349).

Nobody said, that we (or I) don’t want to fix this.

#7357 duplicated an earlier created https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7349

So @tizianopitisci, I closed your ticket in favour of #7349.

One more thought aloud: I see in WordPress core code that this text also displays when nonce check (security) fails. See wp_nonce_ays() if you are interested. This function is used in check_admin_referer() which is used everywhere in BuddyPress. That’s the only hint that I can give you right now. Try investigate in this direction further. In…[Read more]

You don’t need a BuddyPress theme, any WordPress theme will work just fine.
You can create a child theme for your current theme and modify BuddyPress behaviour through it. Copy /plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/ to your theme (in root).

Remove everything that you don’t need, and leave only /your-theme/buddypress/members/single…[Read more]

while they should not.
That’s definitely a plugin compatibility. Any special code bp-custom.php or /mu-plugins/*? They are not plugins in ordinary understanding and can’t be disabled from admin area.
Also, any special rules in .htaccess file in root…[Read more]

That’s mainly a styling thing.
You should be comfortable using Firefox or Chrome and their developer consoles, where you are able to preview changes.

There is no such plugin.
And it seems the functionality you described is too specific for your site, and it will be rather hard to implement some generic things that you could use.

So in general, you will need to find a developer, that will do that for you (if you are not a developer yourself).

The best way – to allow access to specific pages for logged in users only. As GoogleBot is logged out – it will lose access and eventually remove indexed content. You can remove manually from Google Web Developer Console for this site as well.
There are quite a lot of topics like these here on the forum. Just google…[Read more]

You can’t do that in PHP. Well, actually you can – but you will break all the styling, as you will filter our header/footer.php files include. So basically it’s not a good idea.

The best idea – to use a child theme. You can than even switch to that child theme for specific pages on your site. One of the ways to do that:…[Read more]

Make sure, that you have “Anyone can register” checkbox in Settings checked,
AND
on this page /wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-page-settings “Register” component assigned to a WordPress page like this: http://take.ms/vYrhb

This is a known issue, see here:

Better to prevent spam users to register at all. There are a lot of plugins, that help with it.
I use WP-SpamShield successfully on a BuddyPress site.
