– I would recommend you use a plugin to add PHP code to your site. It’s very easy and safe.
Search for the free “Code Snippets” plugin by Code Snippets Pro.
– However, if you prefer to add the code direct to your theme, it should be added near the end of the functions.php file.
I’m not familiar with WP Event Manager, but you can normally disable specific emails getting sent out within the WP Admin -> Emails settings.
So go to WP Admin -> Emails -> All Emails, find the specific email you want to disable, on the settings page for that email you will see “Situation” and you can simply uncheck the checkbox. Then click Update.
This issue has also been on my site for four years.
Only affects Android devices, not iPhone or pc/laptop.
When the buddypress drop-down items in the admin bar are clicked (top-right on screen) , for example Activity, Profile, Notifications, Messages, then the first sub-menu item is automatically selected and clicked without any user action. The user is unable to select the second or third sub-menu item.
I use BP 10.6.1 and the plugin linked below works fine on my site.
But it is now 8 years old, and is likely incompatible with newer versions of BP.
You should text it thoroughly before trying it on your live site.
Alternatively, you might consider using a “whitelist” only plugin, in my experience very effective in keeping out most bots plus temporary email addresses.
– I still use Buddypress 10.6.1 and can confirm the issue you describe “When they click to page two, the sorting resets to “Last Active,” is indeed present.
– also the issue with the Repair Tools (Repair member “last activity” data) has also been present for a while. Last year I used it, it unexpectedly reset all my users’ last active time to 9 months earlier (all of them). I had to restore my site from backup.
The code snippet does not work for me.
The Friends label does not change, neither in the Friends component nor in the Buddypress user account menu (top right on screen)
Snippet added with Code Snippets plugin.
Sorry I have no idea about a technical/code fix for this.
We lost about 12 hours of activity etc. by restoring backup, we decided this was better than waiting for days/weeks for a fix and possibly never getting one.
Same thing happened to me a while ago, all users had 9 months added. This seemed to be related to when I had changed hosting providers 9 months earlier. But not clear, and no solution available.
I had to restore the site from a recent server backup. It solved the issue.
We use the Better Messages plugin from WordPlus, many different options included. I’m afraid I am no longer familiar with the underlying default BP functionality.
Btw, the Better Messages plugin is excellent. Definitely recommended.
