Does the user exist in the Dashboard>>Users>>Pending Users page?

Failing that you will need to check your database direct.

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

You can do something like this:

add_filter( 'bp_get_send_public_message_button', function( $r ) {
    if ( friends_check_friendship( bp_loggedin_user_id(), bp_displayed_user_id() ) || current_user_can('manage_options') ) {
        return $r;
    } else {
        $r['component'] = '';
        return $r;
    }
} );

Here’s the code for the friends activity with BuddyPress Activity Shortcode:

[activity-stream for=logged scope=friends]

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

I’m chatting to the developer of the Activity Shortcode, he reckons you can get the activity for the current users groups by setting it up as follows:

[activity-stream for=logged scope=groups]

He also reckons he’s got a solution for seeing friends activity.

Hi Steve,

I took a look at your other requirements, for a “my friends” and “my groups” activity shortcodes. BuddyPress Activity Shortcode does not currently support these features but I’ve submitted new code to the developer so they can support your needs, I’ve made it a doddle to use if it is accepted.

Hi Jorge,

The header functionality is now available in a new plugin I’ve created. It should make it a lot easier for you to display both group and user headers:

BP Profile Shortcodes Extra

Hi Avaiya,

just to let you know I’ve totally revamped the profile shortcodes plugin and added a load more features, you might like to take a look:

BP Profile Shortcodes Extra

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

Hi Steve,

My initial version is ready – https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-profile-shortcodes-extra/

I’d welcome any feedback about the shortcodes and how they work. There were a number of options I was not sure about, for example if they needed to display a title.

I opted to omit activity and forum shortcodes in this initial release as there are existing shortcodes for these, though in the longer term I do think it would be nice to collect everything into one plugin.

Maybe this plugin could do it, I don’t really know multisite but found this in searches:

WordPress User Sync

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

I noticed this error – Error: Array ( [curl] => [Error] => Array ( [Type] => Sender [Code] => MessageRejected [Message] => Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region US-EAST-1: me@email.com ) [RequestId] => 8bbe97df-3ae7-11e8-bf30-4faaa8409592 )

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

Which top menu options? the WordPress toolbar?

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

Seems like it’s not working. What happens if you deactivate BuddyPress and just use the wordpress registration?

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

Just to be sure I successfully registered on my test system, I got the email fine. I tried again on yours but no joy.

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

Try deactivating all but BuddyPress, see if that fixes it

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

No email received, are you running any other plugins?

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

Thanks Alex!

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

By the way, I recommend you use BP Registration Options to moderate any user signups.

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

BuddyPress basically uses the wordpress email system, it uses a sender address of wordpress@yoursite.com. Some email providers block this generic address. Mine doesn’t, if you like I could register on your site and see if it works for me?

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

My only suggestion is that you can overload the registration page, this gives you access to the css for the username,password and email input fields, have you looked into that?

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

This sounds like bbPress is not recognizing that you have an avatar set and is serving you the default avatar when you are posting in the forums. You might be better off posting this question in the bbPress forum as they are the experts. I’m relly not sure what else to suggest.

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

I’ve been playing with this and I too am struggling. What I have discovered is as follows:

Remove the & from the beginning of the string and alphabetical will work.
Start the string with another option beginning with an & and alphabetical will work.

Exclude does not seem to work in any variation.

I’ve raised this in a track ticket:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7742

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

Pretty sure this has gone over my head in that I don’t understand the issue, whenever I add an xProfile field to the registration form BP automatically adds a css class I can use for styling, are you not getting that?

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

how about if you only have BuddyPress running? does that fix it?

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

This sounds like it’s likely to be a bug, would you mind posting your code so I can check it on a test system? don’t forget to enclose yur code in backticks.

[@venutius Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

On my test site I’m not getting this error, so it’s likely to be something interfering with that BuddyPress page.
