I’m confused, the users activity page is the default home page in BuddyPress. It goes to the personal activity page. I’m sorry if I or anyone else here gave you that impression. I recently wrote a thread which explained how to create a new combined activity page for the user and set that as the new default landing page. It’s slightly complex but very doable:
how to combine activity tabs to one
The original english in those files it sent to a file called buddypress.pot, from this the WordPress translators create country specific .mo files. I’m wondering if the language file for your country is missing this translation. It could very well be the case as this was only recently introduced.
If you go to Appearance/Menus in WP Admin, you should be able to edit the menu and delete those links. While you are there, click on Page Options on the top right of the page and make sure BuddyPress is checked.
Note: it looks like you have multiple menus so you will have to select the correct menu to edit.
Then you should see the BuddyPress menu links meta-box and you will see there’s a login link you can add to the menu. That should sort out your BuddyPress login, same with Register.
I’ve got a site buddyuser dot com, I’ve created a beginners introduction to BuddyPress, you might want to take a look at that.
It’s possible to hide menu links that you don’t want the general public to know about. There’s a few plugins that do this but one I use is https://wordpress.org/plugins/nav-menu-roles/ this adds a handy checkbox to allow you to stipulate who can see that menu item.
There’s two locations for that text Anders depending on which BuddyPress theme you are using. there’s:
wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/data.php on line 49.
and there’s wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-nouveau/buddypress/members/single/data.php also on line 49.
Do you think it’s missing from your countries translation file?
Oh you want to display something actually in the field loop, here’s the hook for that – bp_profile_field_item
That’s all the hooks on that page. If you want to do something different to that then you would probably need to overload the profile-loop.php template file. it’s in plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/your-bp-theme/members/single/profile/profile-loop.php. You’d edit a copy of that then put it in themes/your-child-theme/buddypress/members/single/profile
Thanks for that @shanebp
I’ve been trying to use something like the “Builds an Activity Meta Query to retrieve the favorited activities” part of that document combined with the feed merging solution offered in this thread:
how to combine activity tabs to one
But I can’t seem to wrap my head around it.
I’ve been trying to add the meta_query to my $retval like this:
array(
'meta_query' => array(
array('meta_key' => 'bpcat',
'meta_key' => $industry))
),
Where $industry is a variable associated with the viewers account like:
$industry = xprofile_get_field_data( 2, $user_id, false );
But I’ve also run it with a fixed value for testing ( 'meta_key' => $industry ), no joy either
Hi,
I’ve just had another look at your register link, for BuddyPress it’s incorrect, it’s showing as sitename.com/register/member, if this is default BuddyPress it should be sitename.com/register
Hi there,
The login link is not buddypress, it’s got the option [PM_Login] so would assume it’s by a plugin with PM in the title. You should be able to delete this in the Appearance>>Menus page though. Same with the registration link, it’s PM_Registeration so the same plugin caused that.
Whats the slug of your BuddyPress register page?
Is there a way I can send you my login because I don’t think relaying fixes is the best way to solve this. It seems there was a similar problem 3 years ago that went unresolved as well:
Registration page does not work
I’d still deactivate all of your plgins and see if vanilla BuddyPress works
So it’s looking like this is not BuddyPress but rather something else that is rejecting the passwords that are too simple.
I wonder if this is a BuddyPress question.
In WP admin > user there is a possibility to add your own fields.
When I add an address to a URL field, it will not be clickable.
Is this you can help me with?

I’ve just tried it using your signup details and a different email. It failed, basically it seems to not like your choice of password. As I understand it BuddyPress does not do anything to check passwords but relies on the existing WordPress functions. I’m wondering if you’ve added anything to reject easy passwords?
How Well Do Buddypress Work in Divi Theme
Hi there,
First thing to try is to deactivate all other plugins apart from BuddyPress and see if that works.
Have you performed any customisations relating to the register form?
Hi,
I’m building a website using buddypress and bbpress.
When users register for an account the default roles they are assigned are “Contributor” and “Participant”.
These users at the moment cannot view members in the members list and send private messages.
For the members list I believe the js / ajax is not working for the “Contributor” role for some reason (it loads fine for all other users and for non logged in users).
When viewing the members list as a contributor the members do not load and I receive a js error in the developer console reading “Cannot read property ‘contents’ of undefined”.
There must be an issue specifically for that user role, could there be a permissions issue?
For private messaging the messages simply won’t send. I’ve checked the ajax in the console and it return 200 so i’m not sure what the issue is. I’m also using user role editor and I’ve checked and “Contributors” can send messages so I’m a bit stuck with this one.
I’ve also tried changing the bbpress role which as expected had no effect.
Thanks in advance for any help.
I’m happy to go into more detail if needed but not willing to give out the sites URL.
Have you tried Dashboard -> Tools -> BuddyPress then run the Repair total members count?
I’m using bp-default which is a bundled theme.(I copied bp-default from wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/ to wp-content/themes)
Actually I changed theme Twenty Seventeen, number fields are displayed, so should not I use bp-default?
I think in the first instance you’d probably need to ask the developers of ACEide to build in a mechanism to allow other roles to have access to the editor, there’s usually some way built in to change that.
You’d then thinking about how to integrate it into BuddyPress, such as enabling that post type to make a new activity entry on publication. You’d probably need to write a plugin for that as there’s quite a few features you might want to activate, such as notifications.
I am tinkering with some tricks shown here: https://usersinsights.com/buddypress-custom-profile/.
It has been mostly successful and straight forward more or less. The examples in the link adds customized content to the user’s HEADER section however (where Avatar & last-active time is shown) using:
add_action( ‘bp_profile_header_meta’, ‘my_function’ );
How might I add actions to the main body of a profile page (i.e. in the Base profile section [before and after])? I’ve tried substituting ‘bp_profile_header_meta’ with the other hooks shown in the tutorial i.e.:
add_action( ‘bp_before_profile_content’, ‘my_function’ );
add_action( ‘bp_before_member_activity_content’, ‘my_function’ );
but none of them displays the content within the main body of the profile. Please help.
Thanks in advance.
I added a Number type field and a Phone Number type field on profile fields.
The number type fields are not displayed on a profile edit page, but I can input values on admin pages and see it on a profile view page.
How do i fix this problem? Thank You.
I tried 2 environments.

Hi all,
I’m a newbie for wordpress and this awesome plugin, BuddyPress, so please forgive me if that was already done, i didn’t see anything.
I want to setup a community, wit BuddyPress, where people (mostly for developers) should be able to cut&past part of code easily keeping format.
In a previous experience, not using any CMS, the folks i worked for were using Ace Editor:
https://ace.c9.io/
Which is quite good and i would like to know if i can setup it to let embed the code even for user on my new community.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
NOTE: i see AceIDE is a plugin for WordPress, but it only permit admins to setup the WP itself, not to turn it on the community.
Thank you.
Regards,
Michele
I’m using the latest version of BuddyPress, version 4.2. What plugin are you referring to when you say it’s version 1.3.3?
Hi there,
I can confirm this is an issue, could you raise a bug report on Trac?
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/
Thanks
