Thanks for the screenshots, they do help. The page shown (General Settings) looks very similar to a page that is provided by the BuddyPress Groups Extras (BPGE) plugin, see the following screenshot:

As indicated in the screenshot, the Home or, in your case, the
Activities tab is fixed in place by the code:

if ( $nav['slug'] === 'home' ) {
	$disabled = 'ui-state-disabled';
}

The above snippet can be found here and just indicates that the Home tab is disabled from being sortable. The following is what the element (li) has as classname (default ui-state-disabled) for a non sortable tab of which the only one is the Home tab.

<li id="position_686f6d65" class="default ui-state-disabled">
     <strong>Home</strong>
</li>

While a sortable tab has default ui-sortable-handle as a classname.

<li id="position_6d656d62657273" class="default ui-sortable-handle" style="">
      <strong>Members <span>1</span></strong>
</li>

The BPGE plugin author claims this change was due to:

Group's "Activity"/"Home" navigation link is hard coded in BuddyPress to always be the first one, so disable its reordering.

However, when I rollback from v3.7.0 to v3.6.10, the Home tab is now sortable and can be moved. So the reason for the change is not entirely true.

Moving along, since the General Settings page from the BPGE plugin is similar to the page from your screenshots, we may be able to infer that there was a fork of some the code (the pages portion) from the BPGE plugin and was included in the BuddyBoss theme which AFAIK is a commercial (paid) theme, meaning I can’t verify the code within this theme due the status of free vs paid. If this is the case, then your resolve will have to come from the BuddyBoss developers. However, if the code that supports manage Page general setting resides elsewhere, e.g., custom code or 3rd party plugin, then the resolve is the responsibility of those who authored the code.

As an aside, as it relates to the BPGE plugin, there is an appearance of wonkiness with the reordering of group tabs which appears to be a factor that caused the change to make the Home tab not sortable, however, I’m not sure if BuddyPress is causing the wonkiness,

Having stated all of the above, it seems to me, the reason that you want the Pages tab to be the first tab is because you want that to be the landing page. Would this be a correct assumption? If so, there may be the possibility of changing the landing page to Pages, regardless of the tab order, which will depend on similar the code is similar enough to the BPGE plugin.

It looks like the password reset trigger is missing or misconfigured. Please check your BuddyPress or email plugin settings to ensure the reset situation is enabled and linked to the correct template.

2) … Also there, there is no way to change things here ? Add the thumbnail on the posts list for example, or separate the “comments” and “posts” tabs,…

“Things” can be changed programmatically. Additionally, BuddyPress does not come standard with “Posts” or “Comment” tabs. The only separation for these items is via the dropdown filter selection for “Posts” or “Comments” located in the Sitewide or User Activity streams which is standard for BuddyPress.

3) OK, really confusing.
And if the displyed name and real name arent the same, how can a user know the real @ he has to use to tag someone ?
BTW, i’ve made some tests and even if i use @displayname or @username, it doesnt send a notification to the user,…

Users typically figure out who is who and for @mentions, only the username is used for notifications. For example, a scenario where there are 2 users with the same displayname which happens to be Apple, however, each has a different username because usernames must be unique. Maybe a visual will help you digest this information:

If you are having issues with notifications, that is a different issue and might be related to some external factor such as a plugin or theme that is interfering with the notification process.

As for Main settings, yes, those available via a UI are limited, however, programmatically, there are plenty via constants, filter hooks and action hooks.

Unfortunately BuddyPress search doesn’t use WP_Query.

The best you can do with BuddyPress search is to use the bp_search_query_results filter.

function bp_exclude_from_search( $search_results ) {
    return array_filter( $search_results, function( $result ) {
        $excluded_post_ids = array( 1, 2, 3 );
        $excluded_post_types = array( 'custom_type', 'other_cpt' );
        if ( 
            ! in_array( get_post_type( $result->id, $excluded_post_ids ) ) 
            || ! in_array( get_post_type( $result->type, $excluded_post_types ) ) 
        ) {
            return true;
        };
    });
};
add_filter( 'bp_search_query_results', 'bp_exclude_from_search', 10 );

Hi,

I’m not sure I, totally, understand your inquiry but, I’ll provide some information that may be of some help. The BP Nouveau template pack provides for use of the wp_editor() function configured as TinyMCE and by default provides 7 buttons, e.g.:

• Bold
• Italic
• Bulleted list
• Numbered (ordered) list
• Blockquote
• Link
• Image

Compose and Reply makes use of the same wp_editor and due the use of various filter hooks, the number of buttons can be altered by a plugin or someone implementing custom code. Depending on the code that is external to BuddyPress, there is opportunity to make various buttons available to different users.

For the sake of simplicity, the following screenshot is a simple illustration:

As for settings within BuddyPress, there isn’t a UI available for this purpose. However, some plugins that provide additional TinyMCE buttons, may offer UI settings.

It is a standard

Buddypress already supports it (to some extent) and will be integrated further in the future

Hi,

Try reading through the following document to see if the information provides some insight:

Navigation menus

You could check if this plugin still works. It segregates BuddyPress social networks in a multi network WordPress install so that each WP network has a different social network. One for each Network.

You could also check if this plugin still works. It allows each site on an individual network have its own separate buddypress social network.

It would appear that you may even, at present*, be able to run separate (though members shared) buddypress social networks on every site in a WP Multi Network setup.

AFAIK they both still work in with WP 6.7.2, BP 14.3.3 PHP 8.3.11 MYSQL8.0.35 but you should check yourself if they still do. (i am not a developer or coder)

*The Buddypress Development Team has stated that consideration has been given by the Team to perhaps in the long term to deprecate the multiblog feature sometime in the future. This (AFAIK) would not effect the first scenario but would effect the second
