Hi, @venutius.
Thank you for your response.
My problem is that the emails are delayed most of the times and sometimes I don’t receive them.
I tried everything you said above. I deactivated plugins, reinstalled BP Emails. But still, they are the same. Either delayed or not sent.
I am using SiteGround as a server. How can I get it fixed?
I figured this is the issue in BuddyPress from another user also. The activation email not being sent! Is it BuddyPress’s major issue?
Thanks!

Hello,
I have some trouble while configuring the login page with buddypress and wordpress latest version.
I added register and login page in my menu. Register works well, but once the user is registered he cannot connect to the website since the login button in my menu once clicked redirect the user to the wordpress login page. (forcing users to create a wordpress account).
Thanks for your help !
I think it would be possible yes. If you look at plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/your bp theme/buddypress/members/members-loop.php for example, you can see the link for the members avatar being created for the members directory page.
Most lightboxes use a data tag to identify that the link is to open in a light box, so you could overload this file and replace the href with the link to the full size avatar and add the data tag as required.
You’d then need to add the Javascript for the lightbox, probably in a plugin and together that should work.
There’s nothing off the shelf that does this though.
However that would stop the current default of clicking on the avatar taking you to the members profile. That might be a problem for you but I guess you could simple add another button to visit the members profile.
what is the face slap emoji ?
I have torn my site apart — reinstalling, deleting, researching, database row by row, 20 different SQL searches… completely and utterly defeated… I finally come to the conclusion that despite the site crashing during some settings changes, that maybe this isn’t really a conflict/data corruption buddypress issue… its a wordpress issue… so simple… it is hard to admit
Admin > Settings > Discussion > Show Avatars
(who knew ‘show avatars’ unchecked would remove the profile photo editor completely)
really…
We only do BuddyPress support here, for other plugins you should raise a request on their wordpress forum.
This uses the activity loop as an example, but the approach could be modified for the members loop.
Add custom filters to loops and enjoy them within your plugin
Have you got a link to your groups page?
Also, there should be a create groups option in the BuddyPress admin bar dropdown menu. – on your site, hover your mouse over your avatar on the top right side of the screen, a drop down menu should appear, in this list there should be a Groups option, this should open to include a Create Group option.
Since I had a computer crash I can no longer find where I create new groups.
I now created a menu from BuddyPress named Groups, but there is no option in front end to create groups.

Helloooo there BuddyPress! 🙂 🙂
I am new to BuddyPress and I am so excited to learn and use it.
Website: http://ceefworld.org/ – In development, it is not live yet.
Theme: Charity Is Hope: (https://themeforest.net/item/hope-nonprofit-charity-donations/18634753?s_rank=3)
WordPress version: 5.1.1
BuddyPress version: 4.2.0
I have installed BuddyPress and I cannot see any of the default fields on the Registration page or when a person is logged in I don’t see the defaults fields there either, where the can edit their profile or anything.
So, I guess what am I doing wrong? I set-up all settings I wanted but still don’t see them on the front end. What do I need to do?
Thank you for your support. I truly appreciate it,
Christine 🙂
this one will challenge the most experienced gurus
WP Multisite
Buddypress Network Activated
Working fine… until…
I somehow caused a perfect storm of conflicts
I’ll spare you details of all the missteps that went into this mess, but
the Profile Photo does not display on primary main site frontend or user extended edit page in both mainsite user admin or Network user admin – the edit box simply isn’t there in extended profile edit
what is crazy is Profile Photo displays fine on subsites including admin
I’ve done all the standard stuff from deactivating, deleting, clearing, repairing… everything I can think of to find where there might be a
setting that turns off the admin user profile photo
I’ve had a ton of plugins activated/deleted, so I’m thinking there is some legacy code lingering like a festering splinter in the database somewhere, but I can’t imagine where or what to look for
any ideas?
thanks for any help
I am running WordPress 5.1.1 with BuddyPress 4.2.0. On Site-Wide Activity users are able to post update just fine. However when attempting to comment on a post in site-wide activity the “post” button does nothing and will not allow someone to actually post a comment from site-wide activity. If they go to the users profile they can make a comment just fine there.
No I was responding to what wp.com said about it being the theme that could be causing the issue.
Anyway, no we know you can see the BuddyPress Pages Setting and know how to assign your groups page buddypress, you can check to see if you get the groups directory to show.
It’s s bit odd for sure, it’s not even asking you for your login details. the URL is the web address that the link will take you to, if you hover above it, the link will usually be displayed in the bottom left of your screen.
What I notice about it when I view your site is that it’s got a redirect attached, to your register page. This isn’t usual.
Ah, I’ve just clicked it, this is not the usual WordPress login screen, which is what BuddyPress uses. This is something specific to WordPress.com, they seem to be overloading the login page. I think you will have to raise this with WordPress.com support. I think it’s something more generic about their version of login. Like they’ve set it to remember who you are and automatically enter your details for you. So maybe this is standard for wordpress.com sites? Makes testing difficult though.
Why do I get this answer in my thread?
Theme’s don’t interfere with settings pages I’m afraid, You could try switching to the 2017 theme to test. Could you share a screenshot of the BuddyPress Settings page?, you should have four tabs, Components, Options, Pages and Credits. Do you have those?
‘Our sentries tell us that you should not be here’ That’s not a BuddyPress message, or one from WordPress either, could it me some security plugin you’ve added is doing this?
I’d deactivate all other plugins apart from BuddyPress and see if that fixes it. If it does, activate each plugin one by one until you find the one that’s doing it
Hi Anders,
No problem.
About 2 members and 3 members issue:- BuddyPress only lists users who have an active account and have logged in to your site atleast once after you activated BuddyPress.
Please login to your site with that user for 1 time and they will appear in the list.
Regards
Brajesh
Hi Anders,
It won’t appear there. It is a directory page and BuddyPress does not add the directory page inside the link box you have specified.
Question:- Why do you need that page to appear in the above link box?
Your directory is working now. Please see
Medlemmar
If your goal is to add to the main menu, you already did it. Please help me understand more and I will assist further.
Regards
Brajesh
To Answer your last question:- No, There won’t be any page “Members” in that link Block. BuddyPress does not add Members there.
Even though “Members” is a special page(directory), the BuddyPress link section only lists pages relevant to logged in user(profile tabs).
regards
Brajesh
Thank you for sharing. It is in the right step. We need to follow 1 more step and you will see the members list here.
Please see this image
View post on imgur.com
1. Open Settings->BuddyPress
2. Click on “Pages” tab under BuddyPress setting screen
3. From the “Members” dropdown selecth this page
4. save.
Now, Please visit the page again and let me know if it is showing you the members or not?
Regards
Brajesh
I have now removed all old pages called “members” and created a new page called “Medlemmar”. But shall there be a page “Medlemmar” here for it to work in BuddyPress:

And how do I make it appear there?
Hi @brajesh, it was just a quick fix for the issue where assigning a [page to BuddyPress removes it from the pages list in the the Menus screen, basically you need to create the menu before you assign the page to BP, either way works.
Hi Anders,
Your members directory is working fine.
here is the link
Registrerade medlemmar
It seems to me that you have created 2 members page. Please visit Dashboard->Pages abd search for “Members”. Delete one of the pages.
Then please visit Dashboard->Settings->BuddyPress->Pages and associate the remaining “Members Page” with BuddyPress.
Once you are done with it, Please visit Dashboard->Appearance->Menu and click on “Pages” tab(it is the first one above BuddyPress). Click All pages and select members.
That should do it.
If you are finding any issue, please reply back and I will create an account and assist.

Hi,
what are the issues you are facing?
Did you make any changes to BuddyPress php files? If not, then uninstalling and installing won’t make much difference.
If you can list the issues you are facing, May be I or other community members here can assist.
Best Regards
Brajesh
Hi Anders,
Please try the suggestion in my previous reply and see if that works or not?
@venutius,
Can you please tell me what will be affected by deactivating and activating BuddyPress? I don’t see nay reason(if the page has been associated in BuddyPress page settings).
Regards
Brajesh
