This looks nice but wasn’t what I was looking for since I have a frontpage already and don’t want to change it!
But the link within the code was pretty helpfull! I couldn’t find out where to find the bp-custom.php. Now I know that it has to be created 😀 Thanks anyway!

And also thanks to @struth !
Cause of you i found out how to switch the result of is_user_logged_in() . It’s a simple “!” that needs to be in front of the function!

But I still can’t imagine why the snippet was named to direct visitors to the registration page! It doesn’t do that.

Now the code is modded and it DOES redirect not logged in users to the registration page!

Feel free to use it 🙂

 function redirect2profile(){
	include_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/plugin.php' );
	if($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] == '/profile/' && is_plugin_active('buddypress/bp-loader.php') && is_user_logged_in()){ 
		global $current_user;
		wp_redirect( get_bloginfo('url') . '/member/'. $current_user->user_login . '/profile/'); 
		exit();
	} else {
		if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] == '/profile/' && is_plugin_active('buddypress/bp-loader.php') && !is_user_logged_in()) {
		wp_redirect( get_bloginfo('url') . '/register/'); 
		exit();
		}}
			
 }
add_action('init', 'redirect2profile');

Cheers, Lars

@henrywright-1,

This is what i did to remove it from activation email, you can play with it to remove it from all

function fix_bp_activation_subject($subject) {
return __( "Activate Your Account",'buddypress ' );
}
add_filter( 'bp_core_activation_signup_user_notification_subject ','fix_bp_activation_subject');

I just hijacked Mr Jacoby code:

add_action('after_setup_theme', 'remove_admin_bar');     // remove admin bar for users

function remove_admin_bar() {
if (!current_user_can('administrator') && !is_admin()) {
  show_admin_bar(false);
}
}

 function redirect2profile(){
	include_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/plugin.php' );
	if($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] == '/profile/' && is_plugin_active('buddypress/bp-loader.php') && is_user_logged_in()){     //show buddypress user profile page
		global $current_user;
		wp_redirect( get_bloginfo('url') . '/members/'. $current_user->user_login . '/profile/'); 
		exit();
	}
 }
add_action('init', 'redirect2profile');

?>

Into a plugin for those who don’t know how, or just don’t want to add this code to the functions.php file. you can download it HERE

Removes the admin bar for all users except Administrators and gets “global $current_user;” profile to a page you create called Profile as described by jackreichert

I’ve said it before but I’m going to say it again – you’re a genius Mr Jacoby

Were you creating a theme?

Hi there!

This worked quite fine for me, but i have the problem that this code doesnt bring me to a signup page when you aren’t logged in.

I tried to add the redirect with “else” but it didn’t work for me either.
The code has now changed, since I tried to figure out why it doesn’t redirect me to my register page.

I’m not very skilled with PHP so maybe someone can help me out.
I want the code to redirect the not logged in user to a register page

  function redirect2profile(){
	include_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/plugin.php' );
		if ( is_user_logged_in()){
		if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] == '/profile/' && is_plugin_active('buddypress/bp-loader.php')) {
			global $current_user;
			wp_redirect( get_bloginfo('url') . '/member/'. $current_user->user_login . '/profile/'); 
			exit();
			}
	} else {
		if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] == '/profile/' && is_plugin_active('buddypress/bp-loader.php')) {
		wp_redirect( get_bloginfo('url') . '/register/');
		exit();
		}
		}
		 }
add_action('init', 'redirect2profile');

@shanebp,

Thanks for your snippet which works great with standard buddypress message system but did not work if using BP Profile Message UX plugin, is there anyway to make it work please

posts will only get recorded as activity if buddypress is active the behavior you are seeing is normal. there maybe a plugin out there that can re-construct activity entries from post dates or something but i’m not personally aware of anything that does that.

You could do it like that but each time you update BuddyPress you’ll lose the changes you’ve made to bp-messages-template.php. I’d try to avoid making changes to the plugin core.

I guess if I am on a windows server then I need to rewrite these htaccess rules in IIS URL Rewriter, as per…

http://www.iis.net/learn/application-frameworks/install-and-configure-php-applications-on-iis/translate-htaccess-content-to-iis-webconfig

Alternatively, change to an apache server? Is BuddyPress windows compatible?

This will help you. It shows you how to change most of the text labels and messages outputted by BuddyPress:

Hi

I can find the above function under the legacy branch of code base, but what is the BuddyPress 1.8 equivalent?

Thanks.
