interested in this as well. The only thing I was able to find was this..
BuddyPress Simple Events Pro
Try running with just BuddyPress active and with a default theme such as 2017, the chaces are it’s another plugin messing with BuddyPress that is causing this.
Yes I’m afraid Jetpack is a bit notorious in not fixing bugs caused in BuddyPress, for BP sites it’s best avoided in my experience.
I wanted to know How to make “Follow” system, not “friends” system in Buddypress?. Please help me..
Dear all,
I just built my entire subdomain around Buddypress and launched last week. However, it gives endless redirect loops. The problem stops as soon as I deactivate the BuddyPress (core) plugin, and returns immediately I reactivate.
Kindly assist.
Thank you.
I want to show buddypress message component to my own account page.
At first I thought it will be as easy as calling messages_screen_inbox();
But it didnt work. How to display only the message tab from buddypress?
Wow, that is annoying. Never noticed it before.
imo – the simplest approach is to add some js to submit the form as soon as it appears.
Add this to your theme > functions.php or bp-custom.php
function pp_submit_request_form() {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
$('#group-request-send').click();
});
</script>
<?php
}
add_action( 'bp_after_group_request_membership_content', 'pp_submit_request_form' );
And you could remove or replace the comment field that is briefly visible by editing the template.
If you’re using the BP Legacy template pack, overload and then edit this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\groups\single\request-membership.php
Hi Shane
This is actually standard Buddypress functionality that I’m trying to change. See this Codex page:
How To Join a Private Group
Under the heading “Single group page”, Step 2 is the step I am trying to eliminate.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Greg.
Hi
Everytime I click on a link on my (buddypress integrated) site the page reloads from the top. E.g. when I’m going from the “activity” link to the profile edit and the profile photo link the pages reloads from the top.
It is annoying – does anybody know how to make the loading of the different pages under the buddypress plugin more smooth?
Hi, I would like to set a css class/style (in this case “font-weight: 400;”) to a $field_data in a buddypress function and I’m not really sure how can I do that. This is the code:
function yzc_add_xprofile_field_data_after_username( $name ) {
if ( bp_is_members_directory() ) {
$field_data = xprofile_get_field_data( 'Age', bp_get_member_user_id() );
return $name . ', ' . $field_data;
}
return $name;
}
add_filter( 'bp_member_name', 'yzc_add_xprofile_field_data_after_username', 10 );

Thanks a lot!
I have a site set up with WordPress and have BuddyPress installed on it. I am running the Reign Theme currently on my site. When I log in as a user to test the site I have an issue when uploading a new profile picture. I can select a photo and click upload but it will not show my profile picture when the crop option pops up. I can hit crop but not see anything and it will upload my profile picture. I need to change it where the user can see their photo when the crop option pops up. I have already deactivated all my plugins and used a basic theme and it did not fix my issue. If anyone can help me that would be great.
I’m wondering if it is possible to add a textarea and subject line to a post that would send a private message to the poster using buddypress.
I know its possible with Front End PM, but i hate their UX.
I think you would need to raise a new feature request on Trac for this – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/
Yes thanks.. did that still no go.
I set up WP Mail SMTP but it still isn’t sending the activation email.
What is the specific code I need to add to tell Buddypress to use the WP Mail SMTP program to send emails? And where do I place this code?
Thanks
Try rebuild E-Mails. Go to: Tools > BuddyPress
Mind that this will overwrite your E-Mail customization.
hey guys..
my standard (most recent updated WP/BP install) doesnt have a link to the @username when @mention on the profile field of a user.
you guys have any ideas how to enable @mention inside buddypress profile fields
@vapvarun Is there a way to password protect the registration page so that only those with a password can register? Our BuddyPress instance is invite only. Please advise
I’d try deactivating all plugins apart from BuddyPress and switching to a default theme, just for a few minutes and see if that fixes it.
Switching to the default aarvark theme did indead remove the error messages. I’ve switched back to the child theme, and removed mycode from bp-custom. No results. My BP templates do not contain bp_nav, but I didn’t took the time to change the file versions in the top comments. I have those custom files:
- aarvark-child/buddypress/members/single/myorganization/edit.php
/**
* BuddyPress - Members Single Profile Edit
*
* @package BuddyPress
* @subpackage bp-legacy
* @version 3.0.0

aarvark-child/buddypress/members/single/myorganization/profile-loop.php

In my functions.php file:
// New buddypress nav items
function add_bp_menu_items() {
global $bp;
//Remove unwanted nav items
bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'activity' );
bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'forums' );
bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'user-media' );

unset($bp->bp_options_nav['profile']['public']);
unset($bp->bp_options_nav['profile']['change-avatar']);
unset($bp->bp_options_nav['profile']['change-cover-image']);
unset($bp->bp_options_nav['settings']['profile']);
unset($bp->bp_options_nav['settings']['data']);
$bp->bp_options_nav['profile']['name'] = 'My Profile';
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'add_bp_menu_items', 15 );
// Change Profile menu/tab order
function rt_change_profile_tab_order() {
global $bp;
$bp->members->nav->edit_nav( array(
'name' => 'My Profile',
), 'profile' );
$bp->members->nav->edit_nav( array(
'position' => 1,

$bp->members->nav->edit_nav( array(

}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'rt_change_profile_tab_order', 999 );
What are you looking to upload? The only plugin that includes an upload feature that I’ aware of is https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-xprofile-image-field/
Hi,
I would like to add some users to groups according to their profile fields selection. For example, in the users profile there’s a “city” field and the user select “london”, so that user should be added to the group called “london”. How can I do that?
I checked a couple of plugins but are old or they don’t do what I need:
BuddyPress Group-O-Matic
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-auto-group-join/
Thanks!
Hi @venutius thanks for the reply, it looks like the issue was with my theme. It’s templates for buddypress seem to be riddled with issues!
Is the second file is overloaded? & Overloading & copying it over from:
/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/
It may be?
I am new in buddypress.
Wandering that can I replace the post comment system to what’s new form?
Searching this function for many hours.
