Hi @tubruk,

From what you typed, I can’t really confirm what it is you want to do.

Sounds more like a theme issue, you might want to check modemlooper’s BP Columns theme for hints on how to structure the page into 3 columns:
https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/bp-columns

@zoltok, neat little solution. This will come in handy. Tks.

require( ‘./wp-load.php’ );
require( ‘./wp-blog-header.php’ );
require($_SERVER . “/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/register.php”);

These are the dependencies for the BP registration process. Once all 3 are loaded, the form will work.

I have a custom BP installation in which I bypass the main BP index.php file and use WPMU and BP functions as I need them.

To get the slugs to work, I change my .htaccess file as such:

RewriteRule . index.php?slug=1 [L,NC,QSA]

and then my index.php as such:

if (isset($_GET)) require( ‘./wp-blog-header.php’ );

In that way, the BP header is only loaded when a slug is used, and I can bypass it otherwise.

There’s also https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/moderate-new-blogs/ and https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/limit-blogs-per-user/ which could help

Hi, I am interested in people who are NOT login in (ie people browsing) to be able to send an email to a member from the member profile page. I was looking for a way to put an email form that does not show the members mail in the code, so it can’t be seen by bots or in the source. I considered trying to use the private messaging system in buddypress. Anyone have any ideas?
Essentially, Members pay to be on the site and set up a profile. Regular people (customers) can contact them without knowing the email of the member.

@danfun I would recommend contacting the plugin author about this – http://kimili.com/plugins/kml_flashembed/wp and check out http://kimili.com/plugins/kml_flashembed/#faqs
Michael Bester has actively upgraded the plugin and has responded when I had issues way back WPMU 2.7. Also, I have used Kimili Embed Plugin in some projects and have not had any problems with the RSS feeds.

Lots of ways. Some easier than others.

One way might be to use the Group Email Subscription plugin: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-group-email-subscription/

You can have your settings at sending immediate activity and it will get emailed to you.

what params can be passed to the members loop (edit a theme file or create a child theme for members/index)
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-members-loop/

but a small bug, if no xprofile data then not all the members will be returned
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/1670

I am also looking for info on passing user_meta to the profile page. Let’s keep in touch.

like so?

just a link to the forum thread using `bp_activity_thread_permalink`

I spent some time yesterday to try to stop the constant flow of spam users and blogs being created on my site. Here is what I did…
1- deleted extra registration.php in bbpress folder
2- changed reg. slug
3- installed humanity
4- installed Si Captcha
5- added code from above to htaccess

I am still get about 20-30 per day.
Is there a way to tell if these are humans or bots creating these accounts and blogs?
I don’t know what else to do, any ideas? ( I really don’t want to disable blog creation during registration)

Feature Request: So far plugin runs good on my site but I wold like a option to turn off the share button on my posts. I only want it for the buddypress side as I already have some form of sharing incorporated on my posts and this does not mesh well with my theme. Thanks

Thanks @nit3watch

Will test it out tonight. Did you ever release a plugin where you can add more profile fields to groups such as address, website, etc?

Re: new members – did you create them in the admin system or through the BuddyPress registration pages?

To confirm: you can use custom permalinks without problem in the default wp install.. Changing them as suggested to /%category%/%postname% ?

If that’s the case, try installing BuddyPress plugin again using the automatic install, switch to the bp-default theme, and let us know the outcome

@skolbloggense: BP-Slick uses the same BuddyPress translation strings so the theme should just work fine with your Translation. The only thing that is not yet translated is the menu navigation. But that can all be found in one file, which is organized and very easy to edit. I think it will take you about 10 mins to translate it!

I will add po/mo files to the theme pretty soon (to make upgrading easier, so you won’t lose changes) but right now it’s yet added The Theme is now for sale btw.. It can be purchased with 20% discount until the end of the week: http://bp-tricks.com/purchase-bp-slick/.

Here’s the sales page with it’s features: http://bp-tricks.com/pre-order-bp-slick/. And a short video on how to get it running: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMb7tXXV6Rw&feature=player_embedded

@hnla I did start a new thread here https://buddypress.org/community/groups/installing-buddypress/forum/topic/big-problem-no-access-to-the-back-end-after-activation/ and @trooby solved it!
