@robproce BuddyPress is compatible with the bbPress plugin for Sitewide and/or Group forums
Installing Group and Sitewide Forums
I found this article that showed how to remove the “” quotation marks that surrounded the text.
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/does-bp_member_latest_update-take-arguments/
I wanted to remove both the quotation marks “” and the dash -.
members-loop.php
I replaced
<?php bp_member_latest_update(); ?>
with the following.
<?php
$latestupd = html_entity_decode(bp_get_member_latest_update('length=24'));
$latestud = str_replace(str_split('-"'), ' ', $latestupd);
echo $latestud;
?>
This limits the text output printed to 24 characters and removes the starting dash and the surrounding quotation marks.
On my Members page instead of users activity showing:
– “This is my last post.”
It now shows.
This is my last post.
>>does BuddyPress or 3rd parties design additional plugins as such that can be successfully attached to this theme
Hi @balanz,
The best place to ask is at the premium theme’s forums as we do not have access to the paid theme. Based on what you need, looks more like you need to code a custom plugin that is compatible with both BuddyPress and your premium theme, or hire a developer to do so.
I think BuddyPress just uses the standard WP login page so https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Login_Form has info on customising or even replacing the page.
On one of my sites I created a completely new page following this guide, https://themetrust.com/build-custom-wordpress-login-page/
It should be simple enough to create a custom page that disables the login button unless the checkbox is selected.
Hello
Wordpress 5.4 & Buddypress 5.1.2 installed on a subdomain.
I am setting up a community site with Buddypress.
It looks nice but I am not yet able to set it the way I would like it ๐
I don’t know if it’s possible, but how can I set up a new group so that:
1) Members can respond directly to it
2) That response is therefore visible under that particular group
3) Other drawers can also respond to this
4) If a member other than that group opens or joins it, sees all those reactions and can possibly participate in the discussion?
5) That the whole discussion stays under that group and becomes visible as soon as someone opens that group?
Now when I open a group I don’t see an opportunity to post a comment anywhere as a member.
Hi Lars,
Thank you for confirming.
Please visit Dashboard->settings->BuddyPress and click on “Options”. Under options, you will see activity section.
There is an option to disable akismet there as shown below(Please uncheck it to disable).

Please give it a try and let me know if that works for you or not?

Hi, I’m looking for a plugin that allows me to insert a share button in my posts on BuddyPress.
From this button, I would be interested in getting an html code to embed my posts on an external site.
Do you know one for free?
Thanks a lot for all the help!
We are running into an issue with our BuddyPress activation.
After the registration, the user gets the activation link. When clicking on the link, the user sees the Activate button showing up correctly.
Then the user clicks on the Activation button. Admin gets a notification the user is activated, but the user will see page not found error.
Then the user will try log in with the password just set. It is not working.
When the admin checks the user list, the user is added correct. We are using WordPress 5.3, and the latest BuddyPress.
The site was working well before. We recently added Sucuri Firewall which Sucuri team helped us set up. Does this sound like a page redirect issue?
Please help! We have been working for years to make this site work. Everything was working perfectly when we ran into this issue.

They said me that they already had this kind of problem with your plugin and that the problem was at BuddyPress level.
Is there an actively maintained plugin or core feature simply to share a buddypress posts locally?
Hi guys I actually got a question that needs answering me to get to my next step.
I am planning to buy the premium Cinematix theme from themeforest to built a social media platform but would like to know if I would be able to link one or more radio stations to it and a by admin controllable sound list that can be listened to (while chatting) if the chatters chose to.
and a by admin controllable video screen. first I want to know if this is possible with this theme. and if yes and these options are not already included in this package does BuddyPress or 3rd parties design additional plugins as such that can be successfully attached to this theme?
Please, somebody, help me with these answers and thank you all in advance.

I want to features like a facebook post in BuddyPress. I want options ( friends only, public, only me etc) before a publish post like facebook.
I have used following plugin but it could not provided functionality that i want.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-post-status/
Does buddyPress provided such kind of plugins?
Hi @vapvarun first thanks for your reply.
Plugin you suggest is able to add terms and conditions checkbox to the registration page (SIGNUP), but is not able to add terms and conditions checkbox neither to http://www.mysite.com/wp-login.php? (SIGNIN) nor to BUDDYPRESS LOGIN WIDGET.
Has you know signup is different than signin… I am sure you have read my post fastly and you dont detected this “litlle / big” difference…
Waiting reply of @imath if you have something more to add you are welcome ๐
Thanks for your support.
Another lock-down option is: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-simple-private/
However, if you just need some private pages & categories, then you don’t need BuddyPress at all unless there is some interface aspect that requires profiles.
If you aren’t using profiles, then there are probably some WP plugins that do what you want.
Or, the custom WP code to accomplish is quite simple – if you are a WP dev.
@giuseppecuttone for signup page you will have to use
bp_signup_validate
bp_before_registration_submit_buttons
You can try this, seems still working
BuddyPress Simple Terms And Conditions
Hello, Buddypress has video/audio calling options for Members registering in? Also advice me good Buddypress themes for just groups, private messaging, paid membership.
@honoluluman not sure any existing plugin is used that approach to send default WP email using BuddyPress Email options.
It can be customized you will have to display default wp emails for signup and forgot password and register them again, for reference, you can check https://github.com/robertstaddon/buddypress-welcome-email.
Hi @imath is always beautifull know a major release of buddypress ๐
So first, thanks for very big work done by developers ๐
In the last version of buddypress I have detected the follow “error” in BUDDYPRESS LOGIN WIDGET:
If I add in http://www.mysite.com/wp-login.php? some checkboxes about TERMS OF USE, PRIVACY, I AGREE SENT COMERCIAL INFORMATION, and any other checkbox need to acomplish with DATA PROTECTION LEGISLATION, the checkboxes I add will be showed in http://www.mysite.com/wp-login.php? but they will not be showed in the BUDDYPRESS LOGIN WIDGET.
I think buddypress should to add some hook to make it. I am righy? Or I am wrong?
Can you resolve this problem in new release?
Follow I also add a thread I have opened right now. Maybe you can help me to resolve now this stupid error instead to wait next release (considerate that maybe in next release it will not be resolved…).
How to show TERMS AND CONTIDIONS checkboxes in BuddyPress LogIn widget
Please, let me know how can I resolve it. Please provide some solution about that.
Thanks very very very much for your support.
Hi,
if I add in http://www.mysite.com/wp-login.php? some checkboxes about TERMS OF USE, PRIVACY, I AGREE SENT COMERCIAL INFORMATION, and any other checkbox needed to acomplish with DATA PROTECTION LEGISLATION, the checkboxes I add will be showed well in http://www.mysite.com/wp-login.php? but they will not be showed in the BUDDYPRESS LOGIN WIDGET.
Code I am using is the follow:
<?php
// As part of WP authentication process, call our function
add_filter('wp_authenticate_user', 'wp_authenticate_user_acc', 99999, 2);
function wp_authenticate_user_acc($user, $password) {
// See if the checkbox #login_accept was checked
if ( isset( $_REQUEST['login_accept'] ) && $_REQUEST['login_accept'] == 'on' ) {
// Checkbox on, allow login
return $user;
} else {
// Did NOT check the box, do not allow login
$error = new WP_Error();
$error->add('did_not_accept', 'You must accept the terms and conditions' );
return $error;
}
}
// As part of WP login form construction, call our function
add_filter ( 'login_form', 'login_form_acc' );
function login_form_acc(){
// Add an element to the login form, which must be checked
echo '<label><input type="checkbox" name="login_accept" id="login_accept" /> I agree</label>';
}
?>
Can someone make the correspondent modification to this code to have this feature running also into BuddyPress LogIn widget?
Thanks very very very very very very for your support.
Hi there!!
What would be the best way to create a private (no-index), area not for customers but for our team.
We need to create a no-index series of pages or categories in order to have some resources as pictures, videos an pdf files.
Would be BuddyPress enough to give permissions create different WP roles/users in this matter?
I would appreciate any lead in to this requirement
Thanks to all!!
Hello,
I have been searching for a way to migrate the default plain wordpress emails (registration, forgot password,…) into the the default buddypress html templates.
I would prefer not to use plugin for that, but just grab the body text from wp emails and wrap it with the default bp email styling. (I don’t care so much about details like the unsubscribe button).
Is there an away that this could be done?
Found similar topic here
In case you know some plugin doing exactly this please share it with me.
Thank you

Same problem here. And I note that the buddyboss “auto join” plugin has also been dropped by devs due to knew buddypress version (although you can still download it…)
Thank you for the amazing and unique BuddyPress v5.1.2.
My WP v5.4 site has several admins. I would like for them to be able to email the members of separate BuddyPress Groups, and for their email to show the correct ‘From’ info.
How can I do this in BuddyPress? Failed solutions I tried are shown below.
Thank you!

(Looking for a solution, I found ‘WP Email Users’ plugin, but that only allows sending from one generic admin account, and it’s ‘Groups’ selector is greyed-out when BuddyPress and its Groups are running.
There is the ‘BuddyPress Group Email Subscription’ plugin, but that forwards topics and activity rather than enabling email comm’s within Buddypress.)
