BuddyPress.org

Craig, as Paul mentioned there really isnt one right now. But there is something we can do. The best bet is for every buddypress user to contact Joost (Yoast.com) the guy behind the best WP SEO plugin and ask him to integrate buddypress into his amazing plugin.

I’m sure if he sees enough interest expressed he’ll respond.

I had the same problem and I ended up with your question here hoping I get an answer. But after trying it out on my own, I figured it out. So, I hope this is still helpful to you and others:
Once you install BuddyPress, on top of your admin panel, it asks you to run installation wizard. Clicking on it takes you to Buddypress setting. Just go over each tap and click on save and continue until it finishes. Then you can use Buddypress.

I also figured out I need to instal bbpress plugin as well. I am not sure you can do without it or not (hope someone else advise us on that) but It runs good with Buddypress. It also gives you 3 option tabs on the left side-bar in your admin panel which are “Forums”, “Topics”, “Replies”.

I am still experimenting these plugins, so that is all I know so far.
Hope this helped

I don’t think is possible because when a user signs up they are added as a subscriber and given a profile.

If you’re using Firefox, get the Firebug add-on and right-click on the elements you want to change. Place the revisions in your theme’s style.css file, or better yet, the style.css file of the theme’s child theme so those revisions won’t be overwritten when the theme is updated.

@travel-junkie , I have been using (and loving) your BP Xtra Signup plugin for a while on a single site installation. I just installed it on a multisite web, and I am just not being able to see it in the control pannel, it simply doesn´t show. I was wondering if there is any workaround to this since this is one plugin I donñt want to give up.

If this is possible,I would appreciate a detailed explanation, considering my coding skills are near to ZERO.

Thanks in advance for your kind reply.

Best,

Erik.

Go to your profile page and change “Name (required)” to something other than your username.

You shouldn’t need a plugin to have emails sent or to have profile fields. Are you using the BuddyPress default theme? I ask because something could be wrong there – not sure there is though.

Now, when I say you don’t need plugins to send emails or have profile fields it all depends on ‘what’ and ‘how much’ you want.

https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-buddypress-components/#users-profile-fields should be a starting point for you on profile fields though.

Usually if this happens it would be due to a scripting clash or error. I would myself when diagnosing this compare to the default BuddyPress theme just to see if it happens there. Have you tried that?

p.s. most of Welcome Pack won’t work if you disable activation emails.

What versions of WordPress and BuddyPress are you using? Is this a clean database, or did you port it from the staging site? If so, was it upgraded from a previous BP build.

Are all other timestamps (e.g. on blog posts) correct? Is your timezone set in wp-admin Settings > General?
Do scheduled blog posts work as expected?

If you put (any) plugin in mu-plugins, then it’s activated ALL THE TIME and you cannot disable the plugin.

I suggest you put BuddyPress into /plugins/, just in case you need to disable it in future

Not aware of any good SEO plugins for BuddyPress.

You could install the welcome pack plugin and customize the email to just a thanks for signing up note.

Or:

`function disable_activation_email() {
return false;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_core_signup_send_activation_key’, ‘disable_activation_email’ );`

@sgr33n, the code did not work. it just return empty.

@ds123,

I’ve posted from Firefox, Chrome, Safari (desktop and iOS) and never had an issue with either creating a topic or with the speed. Maybe others have? I assume you’ve had the same outcome from multiple operating systems and devices…

@toccia I cannot replicate this in my test installation. Are you using any membership or invitation plugin? Is WP/BP installed in domain root or in subdirectory/subdomain? Is this single/multisite installation?

B. COPY your theme’s sidebar.php file and Save As > sidebar-buddypress.php

Open up sidebar-buddypress.php file and at the very TOP of the file above other code, add this:
`

`

Save file.

C. Upload header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to your theme folder in server wp-content/themes/dailypost/ in the same directory where your regular header.php and sidebar.php files are

D. Final note: Copy the style modifications for some BP elements https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/ and paste those at the bottom of your theme’s stylesheet, then adjust to taste.
