Your theme’s grimlock-buddypress plugin set style of the BuddyPress select form with no wiggle room for the font-size they set on the select options. Following is a quick fix. You should ask your premium theme author where you should add the style fix as we have no access to the paid theme. The theme author should provide you with free support for the premium theme.
#buddypress .standard-form select {
padding: .3rem 1.25rem;
}
Hi,
I am using this code to pull social links from xprofile fields into the users profile header:
function bpfr_socialize_profile () {
echo '<br>'; // don't remove !
if ( $data = bp_get_profile_field_data( 'field=Twitter ' ) ) :
?>
/" target="_blank" title="Twitter"><i class="icon-twitter"> </i>Test Twitter
<?php endif;
I am looking to do the same but with custom urls. So for instance if they type in Buddypress.org, that text will appear in the header and link to the website. I am no coder and with a few tweaks of above code, I can get it to show the url, but only with the text that I choose myself displayed in </i>Test Twitter. I want the text which the user types in to appear. I have searched some tutorials and tried a few different options but nothing works, I wish I could code! 😀 Hopefully this is easy enough. Can anyone help?
EDIT: If its easy enough, I would prefer the text to show in a form of a button, but text will do for now.
Thanks in advance.
Chuck.

> how to get the excerpt from a blog post to appear in the BuddyPress activity stream without displaying the Divi Shortcode.
@angelajean Excerpts of published blog posts do appear in the BP activity stream naturally in any theme, and any blog URL you post in the status update in the activity stream has a very nice excerpt as well, so not sure why you would need a plugin for showing blog excerpts using Divi. .
Unfortunately, Divi’s a premium theme that we don’t have access to so I would have to refer you back to that theme’s support forums where you could ask them why you need to add/buy a plugin to show a normal blog excerpt in your activity stream.
I am trying to figure out how to get the excerpt from a blog post to appear in the BuddyPress activity stream without displaying the Divi Shortcode. I wrote to Elegant Themes and they want me to add yet another plugin. My website is already plug-in heavy and I am trying to avoid future conflicts. I am sure there must be a simpler fix.
You can see an example of what I am talking about here: https://www.notyouraverageamerican.com/activity/

Hi,
Is there a way to stop users being able to tick the checkbox and use weak passwords while updating their password through BuddyPress? I have googled and found various answers of how to enforce strong passwords, and also code to remove the option to allow it, but for WordPress, not specifically BuddyPress. However, none of the things I have tried have worked.
I’m even struggling to hide it uses CSS and using !important as it is overridden.
I am using the latest WordPress/BuddyPress and the Woostify theme. My website is https://segauniverse.com, however you need to be registered to access BuddyPress (under Community/SEGA Chat).
I don’t want users to be able to select a weak password, as they can select a 1 letter password or basic word, and i think this is a security risk.
Thanks
I have systematically disabled all plugins except WP and re-enabled 1 by 1. It turns out the root cause of the problem was the ‘Paid Memberships Pro – BuddyPress Add On’ plugin. When i enable this, users cannot create or join groups.
Do you know how i resolve this going forward, as i may wish to use this plugin in the future?
Regards
That was the First, what we did yesterday.
In some parts of buddypress IT’s the correct time like the overwie page from the notifications. Also the time in the database from messages ist correct.
I am using WordPress 5.4.1 and BuddyPress v 6.0
This approach does not archive, but it can reduce the number of items retrieved in the activity stream:
Activity Stream and date_query
Thanks for your answer.
You mean I need BuddyPress, WP User Frontend and Paid Membership pro? Do you know a cheaper alternative to Paid Membership pro?
Thanks!!
@swalky it might be some 3rd party js specific conflict or theme js itself. You can follow the following steps to isolate the issue
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/
WordPress 5.4.1
BuddyPress 6.0.0
Site: http://84.107.187.34/upfrog
I managed to make the activity stream multi column with third party software “Masonry” (https://masonry.desandro.com).
The problem I’m facing is calling the masonry-script after the activity stream is completely loaded. For now I used a timeout function to get it working:
setTimeout(function(){
$('.activity-list').masonry({
// options
itemSelector: '.activity-item',
columnWidth: 300
});
}, 3000);
Can anyone tell me how to call the script the right way?
Thanks so much in advance and with kind regards,
Peter
hello , thanks for the reply.
I followed your suggestion and reverted my actions and added the code you provided in bp-custom.php file.
the weird thing is my previous actions were not reverted even though I restrored the default settings of buddypress. as an admin I see the groups in alphabetical order but as a subscriber it is sorted by last activity.
Hello everyone,
I want my users to see the groups alphabetically sorted.
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/sort-groups-alphabetically-by-default-bp-1-2/
I found a topic about it from 10 years ago and followed the solutions in here.
I basically reordered the options in the php file. and It worked to some extent.
When I type the link in my browser : https://example.com/members/me/groups , I can see the alphabetical ordering. But when I try to explore another user’s groups, I still see the previous ordering.
Does anyone know how I can fix it?
Cheers.
Hi there,
Just needed to do this too and managed to hide it with the following CSS
/* remove latest activity update from beneath buddypress profile pic */
div#latest-update {
display:none !important;
}
Yes you were right iamthewebb
Here was the answer if anyone needs it. Just have to apply the change after each update though
Line 784 and 786 of
/wp-content/plugins/geodir_buddypress/public/class-geodir-buddypress-public.php
has the string
“left a review on”
Review doesn’t sound like wording from BuddyPress and looking at that plugin surely that would be the place to ask for support relating to it’s features?
But it should work, if I learn Appdeveloping and I connect the App to the database of buddypress?
@chris98 Unfortunately, I haven’t seen a free solution for a mobile app for Buddypress The premium https://apppresser.com/ has support for BuddyPress and WooCommerce among others. Even if you find a free solution, in order to launch an app to the iOS App Store and/or Google Play store, you must pay every year for a developer license for either.
Hi, I am new to BP. We want to make it possible to upload a file (pdf, doc, jpg, video, anything) right when you post a message so that the file is associated with the message.
I need to know how to attach a file with the message using the buddypress rest api and have it uploaded with the message.
What I found so far is using the private messaging, however, I did not see how to attach a file to the message in the examples viewing the following url: https://developer.buddypress.org/bp-rest-api/reference/private-messaging/
Please help.
Thank you.
