You can use the BuddyPress Anonymous Plugin to allow users to select different avatars and nicknames for public groups, ensuring anonymity. This plugin lets users upload new avatars or choose from a provided list, and set a unique nickname for group participation.

@aboutm2 please paste this code snippet and check it as per your requirement.

// Hide user name from BuddyPress profile
function hide_user_name_from_profile() {
    if ( bp_is_active('xprofile') ) {
       ?>
		<style>
			.user-nicename{
				display:none;
			}
		</style>
	<?php
    }
}
add_action( 'wp', 'hide_user_name_from_profile');

Only if you want to. But it all depends where you have BuddyPress hosted. If you can get notifications when resetting a password, you can get send/recieve emails from BuddyPress too.

@hoopkonsulting As the error suggests, you are not sending a required field as part of the signup payload.

See the documentation.

Hello @imath, I have reviewed everything once again and concluded that the problem was with the BuddyPress Default Data plugin that I use to add demo content. As you mentioned earlier, if you create a group manually, the join and leave buttons in that group work correctly. Meanwhile, groups created using the BuddyPress Default Data plugin give an error – “Error joining this group.” Also, I reverted to version 12.5.1, where all groups can be joined and left without problems. Therefore, I conclude that the BuddyPress Default Data plugin is not compatible with the latest version.

Hello, thank you for your work. I just started testing BuddyPress 14.0.0-RC1 To immediately clarify and rule out any issues related to my theme, I checked everything again using the Twenty Twenty-Four theme with all third-party plugins disabled. In fact, in version 14.0.0-RC1, it is impossible to join groups from the group listing page; an error occurs – “Error joining this group.” From the group page, pressing the join button elicits no response.

This used to work but not anymore. Now it throws errors/warnings.

Suppressing rich text on xprofile text area

Use wp bio field instead, its coming without the editor.

This is an app on buddypress you can try : https://wpappointify.com/tutorly/playground/app/

@shubhuofficial The settings tab is also not visible if the user is viewing another user’s profile. This is the default functionality in BuddyPress.

@Kokiri
Please change this function name “custom_bp_avatar_activity” and keep it unique and please remember this also that this will create a new activity So, you will get two activity for single profile uploads.

// Add action to show new avatar in activity stream
function bp_generate_custom_avatar_activity($user_id, $args) {
// Get the user data
$user = get_userdata($user_id);
$user_link = bp_core_get_userlink($user_id);

// Create the activity entry
bp_activity_add(array(
‘user_id’ => $user_id,
‘action’ => sprintf(__(‘ % s has updated their avatar newly.’, ‘buddypress’), $user_link),
‘component’ => ‘profile’,
‘type’ => ‘new_avatar’,
‘item_id’ => $user_id,
));
}
add_action(‘bp_members_avatar_uploaded’, ‘bp_generate_custom_avatar_activity’, 10, 2);

Hi @lanceelliott72
Try this plugin
https://wbcomdesigns.com/downloads/shortcodes-for-buddypress/

First, ensure that BuddyPress is loaded and initialized before your plugin tries to call its functions. Since BuddyPress hooks its initialization to WordPress bp_init action, which typically fires on wp or init at a priority of 10, you should ensure your hook runs after this or directly on bp_init with a lower priority (higher number).

You can try to debug like this.

function my_custom_buddypress_function() {
    if ( ! function_exists('xprofile_get_field_data') ) {
        error_log('BuddyPress xprofile component has not been loaded yet.');
    } else {
        // Your code here
    }
}

add_action('bp_init', 'my_custom_buddypress_function', 20);

Ensure the BuddyPress plugin is active and add custom code in child theme functions.php or a custom plugin or using the code snippet plugin. xprofile_get_field_data is a valid function https://hooks.wbcomdesigns.com/reference/functions/xprofile_get_field_data/
