@sarah_lena
I spend a lot of time to find a fix for that. So if you still have problems do the following:
1.) Download the “avatars” folder and delete all bpfull-XXxXX.jpg pictures and reupload it
2.) Take a look here: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4092
@boonebgorges gave the comment with the workaround (Thanks for this!)…
So this is the code to replace with in bp-core-avatars.php, line 211:
`// Check for current avatar
foreach( $avatar_files as $key => $value ) {
if ( strpos ( $value, $avatar_size )!== false ) {
$avatar_url = $avatar_folder_url . ‘/’ . $avatar_files[$key];
break;
}
}
`
For me there are no more problems now… It would be great if the BuddyPress-Team could get this into the next release… 
Best!
Hello. Using WP 3.4.2 and Buddypress 1.6.1 – site: hooping.org
Upgraded to BP 1.6.1 and it said to run installation wizard. I did and then I got this message:
“The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Discussion Forums, Members, Activate, Register.” – with a Repair Button. Clicking the Repair button I have options to create a new page for these things, only I’ve been using BP for a few years with forums, members etc and they’ve never had a page associated with them, just slugs as far I know.
Tried replacing the buddypress plugin which brought me right back to the same place. Any thoughts or insights appreciated. Thanks.
Hey @djpaul we might be talking cross purposes, I’ve likely not given you the correct info – it is now sending emails for forum replies
Hi @mercime,
Thank you for the reply. I have to admit that I didn’t, I just dived in and started trying to match the file layout in my theme! I should have had a better look, so thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
The theme is wp clear and there is a link for it. The forum post is for a slightly older version, but I’m sure it can’t be that different so I will have a go at making those changes to get it working.
Thanks for your help, I will let you know how I get on.
Cheers,
Rob
@djpaul group based forums, so bbPress1?
The default theme with BuddyPress doesn’t have a log in widget. If you’re not using a different theme and you’re referring to the sidebar area, that’s hardcoded into the template. In this case, some extra text with a register link will appear as long as user registrations are enabled on your site.
To check, http://www.agentwp.com/enable-or-disable-user-registration-in-wordpress
I’ve just installed buddypress on a local setup as I’m building a website. I’m playing around with the default buddypress theme while I get the hang of it. It’s all working okay but I can’t see how a new member can join the website. The login widget does not have a ‘create new member option’.
All it has is username, password and remember me tick box? Apologies if this is a stupid question that has already been covered.
@robreg what theme are you using? Did you check at bottom of the page you looked at where we have “template-packed” a number of WP themes https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#template-packed-wordpress-themes
If your WP theme is not listed there, open up your theme’s header.php file, copy all, paste in pastebin.com, click submit and post the generated URL here. Do the same for your theme’s page.php, index.php, sidebar.php and footer.php file. I need to see the whole picture.
@charlietech you have posted about this same issue in a previous post. If I recall well, the issue is either with Suffusion or the Suffusion BP template pack. Did you not contact the theme/plugin author about this issue?
@raphadko aas r-a-y mentioned above, it would require custom development.
Simplest way to add a notice is to create a function where you can add/revise the announcement/s and hook it into `do_action( ‘bp_before_group_forum_content’ );`
OR
copy over https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.6.1/bp-themes/bp-default/groups/single/forum.php into your theme folder wp-content/themes/yourthemefolder/groups/single/forum.php and add/style announcement on line 2 or line 4 of that file. It will show up in all group forums but won’t show up in Forums Directory list of topics.
Hi @meg thanks for the code!! So i assume that this will attach the admin to every private message sent on the site. So the admin would receive a copy of the message sent between members. I’m I correct?
Cheers, Bojan
@modemlooper lol i do objective-c but no php, yet
i know how long it takes for objective-c and its long. I heard that php was easier. Apparently not LOL. I have a couple things I would like to ask you. 1. Can you make it so they can add friends because there is no button to do it from the friend area and i dont want them to be sent to another page, also create and join/search for a group, make it so all the activity streams have the option to be viewed all at once, and i removed the top bar at the top that send them to the home page and the link to view desktop version. How can i remove the margins that are left behind i cant find it. Again i am taking hits and misses here trying to figure it out. I know it will take you a while to do the above but i would greatly appreciate if you could do it and send it to me when u can, my boss isn’t very nice and i cant figure out how to work php, but i am in the middle of integrating your plugin with push notifications. If you can do this asap tht would be great feel free to send me a beta version to test out i would be more than happy to do so. Feel free to email @ brandongelfand@yahoo.com oh and btw it was the them i was using i switched to the standard buddypress theme and now the activity button is fine.
@lottiejam you have to provide more information
WP/BP versions? What theme are you using? Site URL?
On the create groups page, we are seeing a blank page on the 2nd step. The group is successfully created but the options for privacy and other things are just not appearing, even after disabling all other plugins, removing functions from bp-custom, disabling caching, etc. The 2nd step is just blank with the next step and previous step buttons below. Anybody have this problem before? If so, how can it be fixed? Or is there a way to skip steps using a function ? (I’d previously thought about this with the avatar upload as that isn’t ideally implemented either).. Please help, this is our last remaining big problem with BuddyPress.
No sorry, that was just a old test snippet that I forgot to delete from the source. Thanks for pointing it out!
@trailmix5 – I seem to be having the same issue. How did you fix the “display name” or “nice name” in BP?
I love the plugin but there are some issues that need to be fixed. #1: The activity button is cut off when viewed on an iPhone 4 you cant see the A of the Activity completely #2: you cant upload a photo from your phone using the BuddyPress Album+ plugin that it said would work, the only way you can upload a photo is if you type in upload at the end of the url, then theres no problem. but there need to be a button and i cant seem to figure out how to fix it. @modemlooper if you read this plz fix it and send me a copy. It will only take an hour or so of your time more than likely. if anyone else can figure how to fix it mail me a copy plz brandongelfand@yahoo.com
For buddypress If you are admin of site :
– you can delete or edit activities from wp-admin,
– you can remove the comments of members from pages (delete link)
For groups , you can add moderators to mange the groups.
for blog, is same with admin or authors role, you can update.
You use the same version of buddypress in local and your server hosting?
You receive notifcations in server for others notifications type or for all notifications ?
the bp_like_send_notification function is commented ? mybe if your remove the // in line 564 it work
Hi @bojan85,
add this code to your functions.php file
function bp_admin_is_my_profile( $my_profile ){
global $bp;
if( ( $bp->current_component == BP_MESSAGES_SLUG )
&& current_user_can(‘manage_options’) ) return true;
else return $my_profile;
}
add_filter(‘bp_is_my_profile’, ‘bp_admin_is_my_profile’, 1);
but i think is not good idea to read the messages of members
, try to use anti spam plugins.
@djpaul pardon my ignorance but if i still get the error even when i am in bp-default and i have JS turned off, isn’t it not an ajax thing?
i’ll have one of my team members trace how the whole thing is failing though (that part is not my forte)
Hi everyone, is there anyway to let admins have access to members private message? I would like to get notified or see when a message is Sent and received. This would help me sleep better at night so I know members don’t get any spam or inappropriate messages just because of joining my community.
Is there anyway to enable this or is it impossible with buddypress?
Cheers.
