Hi guys,
I have a little problem please with the Login widget, it show x2 times the text (Username and Password).
Screenshots : http://prntscr.com/piiq6f
btw, identifiant mean username, and Mot de passe mean password.
Thank you!
Sure thing. I hope you will keep me updated as well. I have tried numerous themes and it is the same on each. Are you using Nouveau buddypress theme or legacy?
support from buddypress direct sadly has not been forthcoming…except doing what i have alread tried. will check theme – I will letyou know if i have any luck! thank you for the message
On the Members Profile page I’d like to have the Profile Field URL open in a new window.
I found the following article regard this issue.
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/profile-fields-open-url-in-new-tab-_blank/
I’ve tried the mentioned function below but its not working.
function swiss_target_blank( $field_value, $field_type, $field_id ){
if( $field_id == 6 ) {
$field_value = str_replace('rel="nofollow"', 'rel="nofollow" target="_blank"', $field_value);
}
return $field_value;
}
add_filter('bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'swiss_target_blank', 11, 3);
It works when I modify the core file located at buddypress/bp-xprofile/classes/class-bp-xprofile-field-type-url.php, line 176. I’d like to find a way to do this without editing the core.
The article referenced above was written about 4 years ago. Has someone changed recently that would prevent the function from working?
Can someone please point me in the right direction? Thx
@playdiune and others,
The following MU Plugin code
works fine up to PHP version 7.1.
Any idea how to make it compatible with newer PHP versions (7.2 and above) ?
Thanks
@alysonmac I am fighting a similar issue. I install and activate rtmedia or mediapress and the whats new form all, but disappears on the members activity. It shows up on the site-wide activity page though. I have been researching this for a bit now and think it might have something to do with the Buddypress Nouveau Theme and the CSS. I am still working to find a solution.
Is it possible to remove automatic links when http://www.domainname.com is typed into a text field? So this is not about automatic links to search a word after clicking.
WordPress version 5.2.3
BuddyPress version 5.0.0
Website is offline due to security reasons by Google, that’s why I need to remove automatic links.
I have a question about the functionality.
If for example, someone quotes the post of another user, it’s possible to receive a notification in the Buddypress notifications panel?
Hi BuddyPress,
I have a problem. I’m a poor programmer and I’m just starting to learn PHP. I hope someone will help me. How can I get count all notifications, both read and unread?
I want to sum it. I can’t find the function for notifications read to count using count()
I can’t enter in my profile.. on http://www.dovadoapp.com
1. 5.2.3
2. directory
3. subdirectory
4. n/d
5. Yes. buddypress worked well 1 week ago
6. 5.0.0
7. 4.9
8. No
9. personalised
10. Flatsome
11. I’ve edited buddypress template but after that i deletet and reinstalled.
12. No
13.
14. no errors
15. siteground
16. I don’t know
17. Buddypress Legacy
18. no. just i can’t enter in my profile
19. events manager linked with buddypress
I can’t deacivate plugin or templates because our website is live and full of events. I am afraid that if i change something m website can be worsen. 1 week ago everything worked!
Thanks
Note that you will have to have “Enable BuddyPress to WordPress profile syncing” checked in order for the function I provided to work.
Also, “WP offers the ability to set the display_name to any of the other names (nickname, first name last name, username, and more)”, yes that’s true, but when your preference is saved, the value you chose is copied into the “display_name” field in the wp_user database, so don’t get distracted by that issue–it’s still the WP “display_name” that bbPress and BuddyPress care about.
Yeah. To make in even more confusing WP offers the ability to set the display_name to any of the other names (nickname, first name last name, username, and more) – I think it is username by default. Well I’ve learned something about WP’s and BP’s use of names, so maybe that will help me figure out what is going wrong with the xprofile function you sent me. It is failing to update the (apparently one single) display name. Maybe bbpress does NOT user display name for its “forum name”. Anyway, I’m missing something about the the BBPress/Buddypress integration with regard to names. Unfortunately, this is not the highest priority thing I’m working on….
Hi Tom-
It sounds like you have a lot of balls in the air. For instance:
Remember, I have removed the original xprofile_sync function.
Honestly, I can’t know enough about your setup to tell you anything for sure. What I can tell you is this:
• bbPress uses WordPress’s “Display Name” field, not a BuddyPress field.
• BuddyPress only updates the WP “Display Name” field when profile syncing is enabled.
• BP’s default sync function also updates WP’s “First Name” and “Last Name”
• The replacement function I provided updates WP’s “Display Name” but _not_ the “First Name” and “Last Name” fields.
Feel free to comment out the “nickname” update line. You won’t hurt anything. You’ll just not update the BP “nickname” field. Which won’t affect the name bbPress displays.
Hello. I’ve updated buddypress to 5 version. Is it normal that when i access my site and i go to my profile nothing appears? please help me. Is very important.

Hi @alysonmac
The first thing you need to do is to read this topic, to understand the informations we need to help you solve your issue.
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/
Then post a new topic and we’ll try to help you.
Hello, I am reading everything related to this topic and I see that it is a general problem that has not been solved correctly.
In my case, activation emails are not received after registration.
In support of WPLMS they have sent me to Buddypress saying that it is not their business.
I have checked with my hosting and the emails do not come out, they are not generated.
I have verified the sending via WP MAIL SMTP with server, port and specific user, but still not received.
Isn’t there a concrete solution? What can be done?
Thank you.
Hi @ravals
Same problem here.
I found two workarounds so far.
1. if you use mediapress or rtmedia as media component, they have a feature for uploading from activity stream.
2. replace “what’s new” by tinymce. I have chosen the second option but I am struggling with the editor resizing. See the thread
Hello BuddyPress
Is there an alternative to BP Activity Plus?
this plug-in has been closed and is no longer available for download. Is there any free or paid plug-in that develops the Activity Stream?

Hi @georgio-1
Thanks for your opinion and inputs.
1. There will be a media component in 6.0.0 🙂
2. We will ask for users input soon about their ideas of BuddyPress blocks (that’s a first step)
3. We will think about how to satisfy developers building on top of BuddyPress as well as end users.

Hi I just sent you an email to the address you’re using with your BuddyPress account. I have detailled another approach in this email, because I think we should not work on production site.
Anonymous UserInactive
Thanks, that’s exactly what I’m doing with a fresh install of WordPress, BuddyPress and having the Twenty Twenty theme active and I can’t reproduce.
The only explaination I see is there’s some custom code editing the query. Custom code can be:
1- into the functions.php of the active theme or active child theme,
2- into a /wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php file,
3- into any file located in the folder /wp-content/mu-plugins,
4- into a plugin.
That’s why we generally ask to deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress, switch the active theme to a Twenty “Something theme” and remove files of point 2 and 3.
Reading our thread so far, you already did that testing right?
Hi,
I recently replaced whats-new by tinymce. After some customizations, that’s what it looks like (groups): Screenshot
To do that, I took a copy of post-form.php from the legacy theme (/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/activity/post-form.php) and replaced the file of the nouveau theme (/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-nouveau/buddypress/activity/post.form)
Then I changed the code and now it is:
do_action( 'bp_before_activity_post_form' ); ?>
<div id="whats-new-content" >
<div id="whats-new-textarea">
<label for="whats-new" class="bp-screen-reader-text"><?php
/* translators: accessibility text */
_e( 'Post what\'s new', 'buddypress' );
?></label>
<?php
$content = '';
$editor_id = 'whats-new';
$settings = array(
'teeny' => false,
'media_buttons' => false,
// 'textarea_rows' => 5,
'editor_height' => 100,
'drag_drop_upload' => false,
'quicktags' => false );
wp_editor( $content, $editor_id, $settings );
?>
</div>
<div id="whats-new-options">
<div id="whats-new-submit">
<input type="submit" name="aw-whats-new-submit" id="aw-whats-new-submit" value="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Post', 'buddypress' ); ?>" />
</div>
In the code I added, the height of tinymce is 100px but it is always launched with 134px height.
It works with 100px height only with the “teeny” version, but this version doesn’t show the image button I added (using a snippet) and the smiley button (from the wp-monalisa plugin).
I tried to fix the problem with css and the only selector that seems to work is iframe#whats-new_ifr but I cannot use !important to override this, because it affects the autoresizing feature.
I thought that I could modify it directly on its system file, but I cannot locate it using the plugin “String Locator”
Any idea? I don’t like to leave it with this height, because it is somehow ugly.
Thanks in advance.

Hi there, I have this snippert, that figures out if the logged-in user is man or woman!
—————————————————————————-
add_filter (‘bp_ajax_querystring’, ‘modify_members_loop’, 20, 2);
function modify_members_loop ($qs=false, $object=false)
{
global $wpdb;
if ($object != ‘members’) return $qs;
// figure out if the logged-in user is man or woman
$gender = xprofile_get_field_data (3, bp_loggedin_user_id ());
if ($gender == ‘Man’)
$query = “SELECT user_id FROM {$wpdb->prefix}bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 3 AND value = ‘Woman'”;
else
$query = “SELECT user_id FROM {$wpdb->prefix}bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 3 AND value = ‘Man'”;
$custom_ids = $wpdb->get_col ($query);
$args = wp_parse_args ($qs);
$args[‘include’] = implode (‘,’, $custom_ids);
$qs = build_query ($args);
return $qs;
}
——————————————————————————–
The problem is, that it doesn’t work with the widgets, who’s online…etc.
So does anyone know, how to fix that?
Note: A loggede in man, should only be able to see women’s profiles and women should be able to see men’s, even if a woman/man, try to search for their own gender!
Best regards
This is a very interesting subject. I am using buddypress for different projects since 2014. I would like to express my point of view, not as a developer (my development skills are limited) but as business coach.
If I see buddypress as a project, I think that there is a problem with the goal. Buddypress provides a networking solution and its orientation is supposed to be user experience enhancement.
It seems that the team is oriented towards the technical side of the project. So they make technical improvements that may be important but the final user will never see and doesn’t care about. For ex. with the latest version, I saw a modification of the password verification system while at the same time members cannot block annoying users with this messaging system, they cannot upload a photo using the “whats-new” form and there is no reporting system to keep your network clean.
There is no media component which is important for a social network. No likes, no sharing, no global searchtool etc
You have to install a lot of plugins and frequently fight with conflicts. Plugins should exist for special features not for basic ones.
If I had to manage buddypress as a project I would invite buddypress users on this site to give feedback on what features they consider important to be implemented. Then I would make an agenda to implement them using code from existing plugins.
Since 2014 I saw only two things that enhance user experience: autolinks and a better theme.
I hope that my point of view helps to define a project orientation that, in my opinion, is not very clear now.

Hi @welshlamb10
I’m sorry I can’t replicate what I’m understanding of your issue. Let’s be sharp in explanations!
Here’s what I did.
1/ Added a regular user to 2 hidden groups (A, B)
2/ loggedin as this user.
3/ Posted an update from Group A then being an admin I’ve edited the date of this update so that she appears when clicking on load more only.
4/ As the regular user I’m going on Group B’s activity stream, click on load more multiple times and all I can see is activities from Group B.
Could you:
1/ Reproduce the bug on your site,
2/ Note in details the different steps you did to reproduce it,
3/ Share these details like I did above ?
Thanks in advance.
About BuddyBoss, I was speaking of this other issue: BuddyBoss Media (upload image icon) no longer displays for certain mobile devices. I can’t imagine a scenario where BuddyPress would be involved on the “upload image icon” vanishing for a Plugin output..
