BuddyPress.org

fix? It’s like that by design, it allows a user to search for other .users with similar interests..

However, if you want more control – Their’s a plugin for that. (we should seriously steal apples “theirs an app for that” marketing.)

“The most important plugin (imho) which is not available is new user moderation…”

In 1.6 the core devs have been doing some work on user capability stuff to make user moderation easier and mentioned that some of the changes will “give us more control over a users status and capabilities for later.” So, something like that ‘could’ end up in core *later*
See: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4038

But, their are wordpress’ plugins that might help keep non-authorised users out – eg. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-secure-invites/ & https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-invites/

Hmm, I highly suggest you make a backup of the file I want you to alter. I’m not sure if your using wordpress or not but in any case what I did was..enter buddypress–>buddypress themes–>bp default—>activity–>index.php. (so yea make a back up of your index.php file) Then edit the index.php file by deleting the following <li class="selected" id="activity-all"><a href=&quot;" title=""><?php printf( __( 'All Members <span>%s</span>', 'buddypress' ), bp_get_total_site_member_count() ); ?></a></li>

Same as mrguythornton, I still don’t know how @ktrusak resolved the issue.

Thats great Chris!

I also experienced my first registered spammer today, while I already took some precautions.
I’ve installed https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stop-spammer-registrations-plugin/ to stop spammers from getting in. The most important plugin (imho) which is not available is new user moderation…

A lot of small communities also use buddypress, and for those communities I think it would be fantastic to have an option to hold new users for moderation.
This plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-registration-options/ was able to do that but hasn’t been updated in ages…
And that option will probably stop bad users from getting in, forever

No — BuddyPress is just a WordPress plugin, so if you disable user registration, it’s off, everywhere. User accounts are shared across all plugins.

@alanchrishughes – the plugin (Buddypress template pack) is simply a utility tool, it’s not required.

What does it do? From what i gather from your comment above, you tried to copy the template folders from Tpack, but if you look inside your theme, the folders are actually empty, which is why it’s not working The plugin copies the folders from the bp-default theme (inside the buddypress plugin)

So – you either need to turn on (activate) template pack and go through the configure stuff (once done you can deactivate the template pack) or, copy over the files manually from within plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/dp-default

If you choose to not keep the template pack active, you may also need to copy over the functions into your themes functions.php (https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/bp-template-pack/trunk/bpt-functions.php) as it has some almost required stuff (like registering the “add friends” buttons)

Could this plugin be the solution for this problem? https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-conditional-profile-field/

Anybody got this plugin to work? Seems non-functional to me…

== Is this a setting that needs to be changed? ==

@margysdr Basically, if you left Groups enabled in BuddyPress > Components panel, then the links to respective groups in the Group Directory page should open to each individual Group’s page.

WP/BP versions? What theme are you using? Have you changed to bp-default theme to see if issue is corrected? If not, then have you disabled other plugins except BuddyPress to see if issue is resolved?

@words2us I only see the facebook connect widget in your sidebar. So assume you want to move login below that:
– Copy over sidebar.php from bp-default theme into your bp-default child theme folder.
– Open up sidebar.php with a text editor and move up “ to just under “
– Save file and upload to server

@lyricsandlines good luck.

@hnla thank you for updating the BP codex page re deleting BP

Are you still using the same webhost you used in this post from 9 months ago? https://buddypress.org/community/groups/requests-feedback/forum/topic/problems-with-buddypress/?topic_page=2&num=15

Have you contacted your webhosting tech support if they support BuddyPress with your hosting plan? Can they increase memory to 96MB or more if needed?

i am about to try this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stop-spammer-registrations-plugin/
– it looks very good. anyone tried it with BP yet?

B. Create a blank sidebar-buddypress.php and in it add:

C. Upload header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php to your theme folder in server wp-content/themes/atahualpa/ in the same directory where your regular header.php and sidebar.php are.

Final note: Check out the style modifications to contain some BP elements. Copy these and paste into your theme’s stylesheet and adjust as needed. https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/

UPDATED INFORMATION BELOW

@indieconnect This is to confirm that to make your theme compatible with BuddyPress, you only need to create two new files. Those files are header-buddypress.php and sidebar-buddypress.php. You do not need a footer-buddypress.php file

If you’ve revised any of the BP template files transferred to your Atahualpa theme folder during the BP Compatibility process, please delete the 6 BP folders transferred to your Atahualpa theme folder in server – activity, blogs, forums, members, groups, register – then re-run Appearance > BP Compatibility again to make sure that you have clean template files.

A. Copy theme’s header.php and Save As > header-buddypress.php
