As a free software I just can’t explain how much I love the buddypress project and I would like to give some suggestions.
1. Buddypress Community Fund (Donations)- It would be awesome if a donation fund can be set up to support the development of buddypress. This fund would be used to incentive developers who would like to support and improve the buddypress project there by increasing the speed of development and progress on buddypress.
Personally buddypress has added tremendous value to me and I would not hesitate to contribute to this fund on a monthly basis. I also feel that among thousands of site’s that are running on buddypress, there would always be thousands of people ready to support buddypress development financially.
2. I would really like the development team to have different roles so buddypress development can be improved on from multiple angles simultaneously. For example
1. Buddypress Technical Team
2. Buddypress Design Team
3. Buddypress Support Team
This are just my personal opinions and I would like to know what your feedback or opinions are on this suggestions. Thanks
forums are handled by bbPress – not BuddyPress
Hi,
I tried what you write but I have a message : please add at least one recipient
Why nobody from Buddypress wants to answer ? Its an issue !

Hello,
I have created several private buddyPress groups and each group has a private bbPress forum.
1) As the group is private do I also have to put the forum inside group as private?
2) If so, do I also have to make private the sub-forums of a main forum that is already marked as private?
Thank you

Hello,
I have several different (private) BuddyPress groups with each their specific bbPress forum (private) and I try to give each forum a different look.
Is there a way to use or wrap the pages of a BuddyPress group forum with a div # ID to write CSS styles for each forum based on the page #ID?
Thank You
bV
Hi,
I’m using woffice + buddypress.
When trying to show the members directory I get this error:
Notice: Trying to get property ‘member’ of non-object in ../wp-content/themes/woffice/inc/buddypress.php on line 1360
Any fix?
Thanks.
Hello,
I hope you can give me input on this scenario.
Diane has a image. She wants to share it with a potential user outside of Buddypress, Jack.
I need Diane to be able to send some sort of message to the Jack who is not a member. Jack would get the message, probably an email, and need to register on the BuddyPress site and join as a member to see this new image, blog post, etc. Then once inside the site. Jack can see the image and operate as a member, because then he has signed up.
Can you tell me how I can get there from here?
Very grateful. Ross
Hi
When I upload a profile picture it will upload the picture but will not allow me to crop it. The is a tiny black box in the top left corner which when hovered over gives the ‘change size’ arrows, but when clicked it gets even smaller and the arrows do not appear.
I am using the latest versions of WordPress and Buddypress.
I have tried the following:
* Used default 2017 theme
* Disabled all plugins except buddypress
* Used different browsers: Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Safari
When searching this forum I have seen that this is a known problem but have been unable to find any solution.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
WP 5.3
Buddypress 5.0.0
BP Legacy
I think since the update to bp 5.0.0 the comments (group-request-membership-comments) when requesting a group membership are disappearing. The added text cannot be found in the database tables, and there are no sql errors. It simply isn’t stored anymore (it used to be in the comments column of bp_groups_members).
Does anyone has the same problem?
You might just over load members/single/parts/item-nav.php and members/single/parts/item-subnav in your child theme and just remove all the navs or replace them with something of your own.
you could keep searching forums for topics on removing tabs there are some “solutions” to removing tabs.

I wish you had longer to edit posts here. My apologies for triple posting here, but I want to mention that what I put above actually may not stop the error logging. I thought it was working, but it is not. 🙂 Not with my hosting anyway. I’m sure the BuddyPress gods will fix this soon. May the force be with you all.
If you’re like me and you do not want these PHP warnings added to your error log every second, you could temporarily do the following until the BuddyPress developers fix this. I stress temporarily because knowing about PHP errors and warnings is a good thing. Add this to your wp-config.php file:
ini_set('error_reporting', 0 );
Again, don’t forget to remove this once you know this is fixed so you can catch the next warning/error your site has.
I know this is slightly pointless… why not just let the warnings log for now… but it’s more of a mental appeasement. 🙂
Or, to really ensure no warnings/errors show in logs or on your live site (once again only until this is fixed), remove the existing define('WP_DEBUG', false); line in wp-config.php, and replace it with all of the following:
ini_set('display_errors','Off');
ini_set('error_reporting', 0 );
define('WP_DEBUG', false);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);
Same for me. A honking great string of errors that are showing at the top of the page to visitors on the front end.
It’s still there, even when I disable BP (I don’t want to delete it and lose my settings). I’ve had to take my site offline for the past 24 hrs.
Is BuddyPress releasing an update to fix this soon? Every other major app has since the latest version of WordPress.
Please help guys!
Yes it will! I have a WordPress install on a subdomain and BuddyPress works absolutely fine.
`Warning: Declaration of BP_Walker_Nav_Menu::walk($elements, $max_depth) should be compatible with Walker::walk($elements, $max_depth, …$args) in /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/classes/class-bp-walker-nav-menu.php on line 0
I am having the same problem after updating wordpress 5.3.

Hello Team,
Thank you for providing this amazing plugin ‘Buddypress’ to create own social platform. Actually I am facing a problem related to “Register” page.
WordPress version – 5.2.4
BuddyPress version – 5.0.0
Website Link – Check Here
I am using polylang plugin to create a multilingual website. When I deactivate this plugin everything works fine but when I activate this then the issue arises.
Is there any way so that buddypress regsiter page can work. I don’t want a translation of it, i just want it works.
Thanks
Nitin
Yes, the easiest way is to activate the BP Legacy Template Pack from the BuddyPress Options screen into your WordPress Dashboard.
Using the WordPress control for generating passwords is a BP Nouveau only feature. The benefits of it is to have the same control than WordPress (eg: when your member are resetting their passwords from the site.url/wp-login.php page).
> Buddypress: version 5.0 was added to the theme as a plugin
What does it mean?
BuddyPress is not installed from the Plugins Management screen?
Please make sure to follow all suggested checks into this topic, in particular testing with only BuddyPress activated and a Twenty* WordPress bundled theme.
They can choose the password of their choice and use the checkbox to confirm the use of weak password if needed.
Having a password to log in is required. Having a strong password is important for the safety of your site.
Disabling this feature would be too bad imho. But you can always override the /members/register.php from a /buddypress/members/register.php template in your active theme (or better child theme).
Thanks for the screenshot of the error.
Just before the word ‘Intervention’, there is an arrow. Click it and you should see the whole error message. Copy and paste it in a reply here.
You may need to open a ticket.
use the same login you use here. And include all the info you posted here.
Hello!
(I use Youzer but it based on a BuddyPress and their support are useless.)
I already restrict access for all users to a WP dashboard profile (only frontend are accessible). How also restrict users with lowest auto-set on registration role “Subscriber” to access their Youzer/BuddyPress profiles and groups pages etc? (Best of all at low-level via functions.php etc to avoid any hacking.) So user will able to access all WP frontend activity functionality like posts comments, in-post voting, WooC products purchase, etc, but without access to a dashboard and to Yz/BP profiles and social network activity.
Hi buddy, have you found a solution? I’m stuck with a similar issue.
I have been using a plugin to export buddypress members and xprofile fields and it is no longer working since 7 november. i cant find another plugin to export the members data.. anyone can help?
Thanks for the reply, Nahum. The link you suggested is *kinda* close, but it removes the wrong part and results in a strange plural/non-plural progression of URLs.
Disabling the prefix, I get the following results:
Forum root URL: example.com/forums
Single forum URL: example.com/forum/movies
What I want is:
Forum root URL: example.com/forums
Single forum URL: example.com/forums/movies
What it is currently: example.com/forums/forum/movies
And after doing some searching, I think this is probably NOT an issue with BuddyPress but an issue with bbPress. See this topic from SEVEN years ago https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-to-remove-forum-from-url/
Still reading through it, but I’m guessing that I will need to fix this with some rewrite rules, because the author doesn’t see a problem with the redundant stuff in the URL.
