We want to close topic creations. as we want members to only reply back to to TOPICS ALREADY CREATED by us.

This is with Groups and not BBPress Forums

You mention you want to close topic creations, but you are not using bbPress forums. Can you post a screenshot of what you are referring to? Are you talking about the activity post form?

Thanks for the reply @danbp

I have not built the site and I also have very little technical and coding knowledge (sorry!) I will update WordPress later but wasn’t sure how to back everything up?

There is a lot of plugins installed:Admin Menu Editor, Advanced Custom Fields,Advanced Custom Fields PRO, bbPress,BuddyPress, DropBox Folder Share, Easy FancyBox, Gravity Forms, Gravity Forms + Custom Post Types, Gravity Forms CSS Ready Class Selector, Gravity Forms Remove Entries, jonradio Multiple Themes, Login Security, Members, No Page Comment, OPcache Dashboard,Page Specific Menu Items, PHP Code For Posts, Post Types Order, Social Media Feather, Styles with Shortcodes for WordPress,
TAO Schedule Update, WordPress Importer, WP Google Maps, WP Google Maps – Pro Add-on, wp_mail return-path

Are any of these know to conflict with BuddyPress?

Not sure on the custom functions as far as I know… I’m not confident enough to debug and the site it is also live so not sure what to do?

Think I will update WordPress then disable all plugins except BuddyPress and try on a twenty theme but if that doesn’t work, which seems like the case in other past posts, I’m not sure need help!

Thanks again

Add this snippet to bp-custom.php and comment/remove what you don’t need

function bpex_admin_bar_remove() {
global $wp_admin_bar;

	// Remove the whole WP logo menu
//	$wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'wp-logo' ); 

	// remove only About BuddyPress 
	$wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'bp-about' ); 

	// remove only About bbPress
//	$wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'bbp-about' );

}
add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'bpex_admin_bar_remove' );

I am having this issue with BuddyPress 2.6.1.1 & bbPress 2.5.10 plugins installed

I have used the BuddyPress repair tool but it didn’t work?

Running WordPress 4.4.4 and the Sparkling theme

Any ideas as this seems to be a common issue looking back through older topics

Irony is when I forgot my password to this forum it sent an email instantly!!!

Thanks in advance

There is nothing to do ! Private groups are even private. If user 1 is only member of group A and NOT of group B, user 1 can only act with group A forum.

Aside, question related to bbPress should be asked on bbPress forum, not on BuddyPress forum.

bbPress is a separate plugin, so it is intended to work like this untill you code something to your need.

See both links at the bottom of this codex page:

Notifications

Subscribing to bbPress topics is explained here:

Subscriptions

[MOD] Topic moved to a more appropriate forum.

The following plugins/widget are generating these error messages.

bp-edit-group-slug

BP_Toplevel_Groups_Widget

BP_Group_Navigator_Widget

bp-group-email

bp-group-hierarchy

You have to contact their authors via plugin support on WP repo.

and on your side:

The first step to getting rid of those Notices is identifying the source, so:
– switch momentarily to a WP theme like 2016 and see if any persist
– turn off plugins one at a time and see if any persist

About the bbPress notice (bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly), read here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/10709/

bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly

Add this snippet to bp-custom.php and give it a try.

function bpex_hide_profile_menu_tabs() {

	if( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) ) :

	if ( bp_is_user() && !is_super_admin() && !bp_is_my_profile() ) {
	//	BP's profile main menu items. Comment those to show.
	//	bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'activity' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'profile' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'friends' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'groups' );
	//	exist only if you use bbPress
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'forums' ); 

	//	BP's profile main menu items. Comment those to show.
	//	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'personnal' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'mentions' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'favorites' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'friends' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'groups' );
	}
	endif;
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_hide_profile_menu_tabs', 15 );

you are using bbpress right? IF yes you would need to ask this at bbpress forums

Merci @imath !

The old way

The following syntax to change the tab order is deprecated since 2.6 and will throw an error notice:

function rt_change_profile_tab_order() {
global $bp;
$bp->bp_nav['profile']['position'] = 10;
$bp->bp_nav['activity']['position'] = 20;
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'rt_change_profile_tab_order', 999 );

The new way

Now the correct syntax to use for modifying – since 2.6 – the tabs position on the buddybar when you’re on a profile.

This example list all BP related items who appear by default on a profile nav, in order of appearance and include also the forum tab (if you use bbPress for group forums).
By default, activity tab comes as 1st. The snippet will move it to 4th position.

To modify a position you simply change the numeric value.
If you want to move only one item, you remove or comment (add // at begin of the line) the ones you don’t want to move.

function bpex_primary_nav_tabs_position() {
	buddypress()->members->nav->edit_nav( array( 'position' => 4,	), 'activity' 		);
	buddypress()->members->nav->edit_nav( array( 'position' => 5, 	), 'profile' 		); 
	buddypress()->members->nav->edit_nav( array( 'position' => 7, 	), 'notifications'	); 
	buddypress()->members->nav->edit_nav( array( 'position' => 9,	), 'messages' 	  	);
	buddypress()->members->nav->edit_nav( array( 'position' => 2,	), 'friends' 	  	);
	buddypress()->members->nav->edit_nav( array( 'position' => 6,	), 'groups' 		);
	buddypress()->members->nav->edit_nav( array( 'position' => 3, 	), 'forums' 		);
	buddypress()->members->nav->edit_nav( array( 'position' => 1, 	), 'settings' 		);
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_primary_nav_tabs_position', 999 );

That’s it for the buddybar nav menu order on profile.

Check your Forum settings. For each group forum you can change the order manually.

For more in-deep settings, you’ve better chance to get an answer on bbPress support.

Hi @alessandrat,

that’s a question for bbPress. Please read here:

Post by Email & Social Media Integration

“bbpress group forums associated with the user” this is not possible. you can associate bbpress forums to a specific group only

Installing Group and Sitewide Forums

Having same problem with Danish language.
Have added both .mo and .po to wp-content/buddypress/languages/ but can’t see the translations…
However, bbpress seems to be getting the translations OK …
