BuddyPress.org

Is this the page you mean: http://www.enterprisenation.com/become-member/

Is something that can be easily implemented if outlined in a tutorial? Or made into a plugin? I’m sorry to hijack this thread btw, but since spam is obviously a major issue with Buddypress, if sites like the ones you create have found a way around it, you could be helping tons of people if you share, in detail, the way you did this. Or you could at least make a ton of money if you sold it in plugin form.

I, too, am curious how custom post types come into play here. Does Buddypress itself use custom post types for activity or groups at all?

You can do this but you might want to use something like gravity forms if you are not using the social features.

I do not give support for added plugins. I do not test with any added BuddyPress plugins unless explicitly stated. Your best bet is to remove the add actions from the mobile theme where the added plugins are placing code to strip your site down to bare essentials. This is generally a good idea for mobile UX.

The next version of the plugin will not allow added plugins to be used unless I make sure they work. This will be to avoid posts like this. I can’t support every iteration of site that BuddyPress wills. Having individual sites is great but that is because BuddyPress plugin developers are creating plugins for BP. No one as of yet has contacted me to say they want to add the mobilized version of their plugin to support BP mobile. That being said i’m making it so BP plugin devs can add the mobile template files themselves to their plugin. It’s a win for you and me as I won’t have to support every plugin my self.

If you are sure they are not going into the recipient’s junk or spam filter then the following page might help: https://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/frequently-asked-questions/

Hi Hans,
you have to digg in the prehistorical 1.0 version of BP
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/1.0?order=name
where you can find this old coutry field and a csv file with different countries.
You can find some interesting code in buddypress 1.0/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-classes.php

Good luck !

Ok, to set new fields for your members you should read the paragraph ‘Optional: Set Profile Fields’ of this tutorial
http://wpmu.org/the-illustrated-guide-to-installing-and-setting-up-buddypress-1-5/

if you mean login in with email, then you can try this interesting plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-email-login/

then you can add a function in the functions.php file of your active theme to change the label of the sidebar login form :

add_action('bp_after_sidebar_login_form', 'bp_login_by_email_adapt_login_form');

function bp_login_by_email_adapt_login_form() {
?>

jQuery(document).ready(function($){
usernameoremail = $("#sidebar-user-login").parent().html().replace(/Username/ig, 'Username or email' );
$("#sidebar-user-login").parent().html(usernameoremail);
});

<?php
}

or if you’re using a child theme of BP-default theme, you can add/edit the template sidebar.php and replace the label for=sidebar-user-login by Username or email.

To build this kind of feature, you need to be a PHP developer:

• You’d add new profile field groups for each type of stat (or if the stats are too complex for profile fields – a custom component to handle them).
• You’d then assign a role to each member based on whether they are a batter, pitcher or fielder – ideally implemented using the underlying WordPress user roles.
• Finally, you’d implement conditional logic in your templates to display appropriate profile field groups based on the member’s role.

Hi websitevala,

To add custom fields to your registration page, you’ll need to add xprofile fields. To do so in WP Backend, you should go / BuddyPress menu / Profile fields submenu

And for the other thing, as you noticed emails are hidden, there might be a spam risk reason to that. And as a user, i wouldn’t like to have my email shown on my profile.. So i dont think it’s a good idea.

hi @enderpal444

I think i would use BP members loop to do what you want to do as you can send meta_key to BP_Core_User::get_users. Then i would take benefit of the filters included in the 2 sql to change its behavior. This is what i’ve tried to add a filtering by geo position to the main BP Members directory. I guess you’ll need to ask Roger and Paul about efficiency…

in the functions.php of my active theme > http://pastebin.com/2HKsSZCc

i tried to have a ‘one pass’ approach

@pgideonbolger — I ran into this as well. I was going around in circles trying to override the defaults selector by selector. To override the defaults en masse, you have to address the fact that BP 1.5 uses enqueue to load the styles. You’ll want to stop it from loading the default styles and instead copy/paste the styles you want to retain from default.css into your child theme’s styles.css.

FYI, I got this info from https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/ – which is a helpful page – and am using it with success. But if you don’t want to search that page for the info, just grab the code below and add it to your child theme’s functions.php:
`
if ( !function_exists( ‘bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles’ ) ) :
function bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles() {

// You should bump this version when changes are made to bust cache
$version = ‘20120625’;

// Register stylesheet of child-theme
wp_register_style( ‘child-theme’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’, array(), $version );

// Enqueue stylesheet of child-theme
wp_enqueue_style( ‘child-theme’ );
}
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles’ );
endif;
`
