In your experience how compatible is buddyboss?
I’ve used a good number of BuddyBoss plugins and themes with BuddyPress without problems. If you do find an issue be sure to report it to them, their support is very good.
Hi, thanks. That seemed to do it!
Is there any membership plugin you recommend to use with BuddyPress? In your experience how compatible is buddyboss?
I am building a site at http://globalwe.wpengine.com
I have created a user account for myself using a completely different name and email address. I have started up a new separate browser (Safari; my work on the site is in Chrome) and tried to load the directory page. It says it is for personal members only. I enter my login information and successfully login. Then I click on my profile link, and I am asked to log in again. I can’t get to my profile page as a user with a consistent logged-in user profile so I can do a blog post or create other activity.
We are also using BuddyBoss plugins: BuddyBoss Media, Wall and Paid Memberships Pro for the membership management.
Hi –
I’m using a Buddyboss theme with BuddyPress. Im trying to share a link to my member base from Medium.com (https://medium.com/super-powers-are-real/the-world-needs-superheroes-ff810d0f7ffa)
The link preview does not display properly, and shows “Attention Required | Cloudflare”
Feedback from Buddyboss was it was an issue with Medium.com’s setting in Cloudflare
Feedback from Medium.com is that it’s an issue with Buddyboss and or Buddypress.
Posting the link to Facebook works just fine, so I know the link can be shared.
Can you please provide guidance on how to fix this issue – thank you!
Hello,
I am using the BuddyBoss Theme OneSocial Marketplace. I required a ‘monthly’ paid membership option so I decided to use Paid Memberships Pro (I have chosen the Plus level of PMPro).
OneSocial uses BuddyPress for the community portion of the site.
So how I would like the site to work is… Users choose a “membership level” via PMPro which manages their monthly subscriptions but they use BuddyPress Profile and Tools for their “community interactions”…
How do I push the User’s account to their BuddyPress Profile and NOT their PMPro profile??
thank you!
I can’t understand why NONE of the media plugins or Buddypress seem to come with the functionality allowing images that are uploaded to a group wall… to show up in the users “media” tab? They are the users images being posted so why can’t those be included?
I’ve checked mediapress, buddypress activity plus, rtmedia, buddyboss wall and media uploads, you name it. None of them do this.
Is there a simple profile template hack or something that could get these images included in the users profile media tab? Thanks
I would check out https://themeforest.net/search?term=buddypress
This will show all the premium themes that are made for buddypress.
I’ve had some good experience with buddyboss.
Hello everyone!
I’ve been searching for hours on every site I can possibly think of, and I’ve looked at tons of articles in regards to the admin bar, but haven’t found any similar issues.
The website I am currently building I am using BuddyPress version 2.8.2, BuddyBoss theme version 2.3.3, and WordPress version 4.7.4.
I want to hide the WordPress admin bar from all users except the administrator. That’s simple, as I have found many different ways to do it (coding, plugins, etc).
The issue I am running into is when I hide the WordPress admin toolbar (regardless of method, ie. coding or plugin), it also removes all of the dropdown options for the BuddyPress admin toolbar (activity, profile, friends, messages, etc) that shows up with the BuddyBoss theme. I originally thought it was a coding issue in the BuddyBoss theme, but from the information I found, the admin bar that shows up with the theme comes from the BuddyPress plugin.
I imagine that the BuddyPress plugin uses the same call function (I don’t code much so I don’t know the proper term) to get it’s drop down menu as WordPress does for it’s admin toolbar. My issue is I can’t figure out where/what that is so that I can change it to something custom.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

The “select your file” button that lets you upload cover/profile pictures doesnt line up with the link on mobile. On the destop it works. But on mobile you have to touch just below the bottom right of the button to activate the link. I went into the web dev inspector and the smaller the screen the further away the link moves from the button. Does this have anything to do with the button being absolute position and the link relative? Ive spent a good 15 hours troubleshooting…
Any help would be much appreciated thank you.
I’m having an issue with my site, only the site administrator can add friends.. when I’m logged into a vendor,participant account I cant… I’m using buddyboss one social theme.. any thoughts?
Sorry, but this forum is for BuddyPress support.
We can’t assist you for premium theme. Please, ask on your theme support.
im using a theme called social marketplace by buddyboss, it comes bundled with buddypress.. they have these hideous login and register overlays that are cool in theory but i dont know how to style them in CSS… (im a noobie) so i went into the theme settings and shut them off.. now my login page goes to /wp-login and my register page goes to /my-account
my account page still looks like the buddypress registration form.. when it should infact look like this

i use a plugin called wc vendors.. that say they hook into the my-account page ( whatever that means)
i just want to get my login and register pages looking similar i cant seem to figure it out.. thanks
There is nothing like this. Would make a great plugin. BuddyPress allows people to request group membership for private groups. Change a group to private and the “join” group button becomes “request membership”
auto join plugin based on role https://www.buddyboss.com/purchase/buddypress-auto-group-join/
Okay – discovered that the overload file needs to be in wp-content/themes/buddyboss-child/buddypress/members/single/profile and verified it by making a random change to the file, but I’m still not seeing fields without values.
PS For some reason, the system won’t allow me to paste the code.
Thanks for the quick response, but doesn’t seem to be working for me. I created the template overload of profile-loop.php and stored it in wp-content/themes/buddyboss-child/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/profile. I’ve pasted the entire file below after modification.
I can’t find it now, but there was a thread somewhere that indicated that the following line needed to be changed in bp-xprofile-template.php so was wondering what you thought of that.
$hide_empty_fields_default = ( ! is_network_admin() && ! is_admin() && ! bp_is_user_profile_edit() && ! bp_is_register_page() );
Anyway, here’s my profile-loop.php:
`
danbp,
I seem to hit a limit around 250 items, however, the quantity does vary as I try to add more. I need to increase this to 375. I switched to a radio button and I was up to around 300. I also read that tables do not like capitals so converted to lower case with little impact. I have tried explorer, firefox and safari on a PC and MAC with no impact.
I did look at the class-bp-xprofile-field-type-selectbox.php file and did not see a limiting parameter. The posts you referenced said they had over 1,000 items so I am not sure if it may be something with my host. Anyway, below is my theme and plug-ins, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill

Same problem on my site. Running theme Boss 2.3 from BuddyBoss.
Please write PM if you need access to a broken site.
Best regards,
Michael
afaik, the Dashboard link is added by your theme.
You should ask BuddyBoss about it.
It probably is only visible to site admins.
Hi,
BP has only a few templates who fit with almost any (good) wordpress themes, like BuddyBoss.
Firt you have to read your theme child-theme doc and eventually about BP template hierarchy.
I’ll try to make this my last question. I think I’m going to purchase and use the BoddyBoss theme. Now that I have already added WordPress to my Bluehost account, I also have to add the BuddyBoss theme and BuddyPress to my Bluehost account as well, is that correct? And does it matter which order I add them in?
The trouble with the pay for themes is that you need to pay for them to try them out fully so it’s difficult to recommend them as I’ve not played with most of them.
Here’s a few links, Kleo from BuddyBoss works well, there also Community Buider from BuddyDev that just been released:

So sorry @danbp.
Since installing BP 2.7.2, all the ajax response I receive starts with a php tag <?php.
I already tried deactivating all other plugins, setting my theme to twentysixteen, but whenever I activate only BP, the issue is generated.
1. WordPress version: 4.6.1
2. Installed wordpress as a directory
3. Root
4. Did not upgrade from a previous version of wordpress.
5. WordPress was functioning properly before I installed BP.
6. BP version 2.7.2
7. Did not upgrade from a previous version of BP
8. I have plugins other than BP. I already tried deactivating all plugins. Only BP causes the issue.
9. Customized theme
10. Social Portfolio
11. No
12. No
13. not running bbpress
14. Please provide a list of any errors in your server’s log files.

I’m not sure if this is still of interest – but BuddyBoss has developed a premium theme Social Marketplace that could probably do what you’re looking for:
Social MarketPlace
Yes, you would also need WordPress (free) and BuddyPress (free) and WooCommerce (free) to get it running. I haven’t tried it myself yet, but I’m currently working on a site using Social Portfolio by BuddyBoss and I must say they did a great job. It can be quite demanding to get everything working, but so far I have no complaints. Cheers!
i think i found the problem … “it was with the buddyboss wall plugin”..
Thank you once again
