It’s hard to answer this one, but if you remember to a word or a sentence from the thread you found earlier, you can try to use google operators to find it.
example google search: site:Buddypress.org “crop image”

Hi there,

Yes emails can be difficult to diagnose because sometimes they are sent but not accepted by the destination email host.

The first thing to do is to deactivate all plugins and see if that corrected it.

IF that fails, try switching to a default theme such as 2017.

Next thing to try is reinstall your BP Emails in Admin>>Tools>>BuddyPress.

If they are still not being sent then you need to turn on WP-DEBUG and see if there are any errors being produced.

If they are still not being sent, then deactivate BuddyPress and see if the standard WordPress emails are being sent.

Some people have got to this point and fixed it by installing an alternative WP Email engine, as it was down to their hosting provider not allowing the WordPress emails through.

I guess the next step would be to raise an issue on Trac, since this sounds like you are wanting a change to the way the code works. include the link to the Yoast discussion.

It sounds like something is messing with the user database lookups, have you tried deactivating all plugins except BuddyPress and trying?

Hey @werny,

I’ve just added this to the repository. It doesn’t do anything advanced, but is free!

Toolkit for BuddyPress

I guess the first thing to check is that you have a page configured to be the activation page. If you look in Settings>>BuddyPress>>Pages you can check there. You won’t be able to access the activation page while logged in, so log out and see if you can access the activate page manually, without the activation key. does that work?

Which BP Theme are you using ( Settings>>BuddyPress>>Options ) then I can be more accurate in my testing.

That’s great! It took me a while to figure it out and it would have definitely been a downer if it didn’t work.

I also worked out how to combine all of the activity types onto one page here https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-combine-activity-tabs-to-one/ it may also be of interest.

I think what you are asking for is that group activity should not be posted to the activity page.

group activities for public groups are automatically shown site-wide by default and I can’t see anyway to change this. The only option I could come up with, which is far from ideal is to delete the activity that is set sitewide and add it again with the setting change to hide sitewide:

add_action( 'bp_activity_add', 'bpex_hide_group_activity' );

function bpex_hide_group_activity( $r, $activity_id ) {
	
	if ( $r['component'] == buddypress()->groups->id ) {
		$group = groups_get_group( $r['item_id'] );
       		if ( isset( $group->status ) && 'public' == $group->status ) {
                     bp_activity_delete( 'id' => $activity_id );
		     $r['hide_sitewide' => true;
		     $new_id = bp_activity_add( $r );
                }
	}
}

It’s not really ideal as any notifications that get sent based on the first activity will result in a not found error when clicked so you will probably want to improve the logic used to filter our specific activities and not all group activities as I’ve done here.

I’ve recently wrote a pluugin that allows you to devolve authority for each of the BuddyPress components to other roles. So a non admin could manage the extended profile information for all users. It’s called BP Devolved Authority. However if I understand you correctly then this may not be what you are looking for. I’m not aware of any other plugins that allow finer granularity of managing BP Users.

Hi there,

My suggestion is that you add a new menu item “All” and create a new set of queries for the page then make that page the default landing page for the profile activity page. Here’s my code to do this:

function bpex_set_member_default_nav() {
 
		if ( ! bp_is_user_profile() && ! bp_is_user_activity() && ! bp_is_user() ) {
		    return;
	         }

                bp_core_new_nav_default(
		array(
			'parent_slug'       => buddypress()->activity->id,
		// other "activity" sub_nav slugs : personal favorites friends groups mentons
			'subnav_slug'       => 'all-activity',
			'screen_function'   => 'bp_activity_screen_all_activity'
		)
	);
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_set_member_default_nav', 20 );

add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_just_me_tab', 50 );
add_action( 'bp_setup_admin_bar', 'bpex_admin_bar_add', 50 );

function bpex_just_me_tab() {
	
	if ( ! bp_is_user_profile() && ! bp_is_user_activity() && ! bp_is_user() ) {
		return;
	}
	
	global $bp;
	$user_id = bp_displayed_user_id();
	
		bp_core_new_subnav_item( array(
			'name'            => _x( 'All', 'Profile activity screen sub nav', 'buddypress' ),
			'slug'            => 'all-activity',
			'parent_url'      => bp_core_get_user_domain( $user_id ) . 'activity/',
			'parent_slug'     => 'activity',
			'screen_function' => 'bp_activity_screen_all_activity',
			'position'        => 10
		) );

}

function bpex_admin_bar_add() {
	
	global $wp_admin_bar, $bp;

	if ( ! bp_use_wp_admin_bar() || defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) ) {
		return false;
	}

	$user_id = get_current_user_id();
	
	if ( ! $user_id || $user_id == 0 || ! is_numeric( $user_id ) ) {
		return;
	}
	
	// Personal.
	//$wp_admin_bar->remove_menu( 'my-account-activity-personal', 'my-account-activity' );

	$wp_admin_bar->add_menu( array(
		'parent'   => 'my-account-activity',
		'id'       => 'my-account-activity-all-activity',
		'title'    => 'All',
		'href'     => bp_core_get_user_domain( $user_id ) . 'activity/all-activity/',
		'position' => 10
	) );
}
function bp_activity_screen_all_activity() {

	do_action( 'bp_activity_screen_all_activity' );

	bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( 'bp_activity_template_all_activity', 'members/single/home' ) );
}

function bp_activity_filter_all_activity_scope( $retval = array(), $filter = array() ) {

	// Determine the user_id.
	if ( ! empty( $filter['user_id'] ) ) {
		$user_id = $filter['user_id'];
	} else {
		$user_id = bp_displayed_user_id()
			? bp_displayed_user_id()
			: bp_loggedin_user_id();
	}

	// Should we show all items regardless of sitewide visibility?
	$show_hidden = array();
	if ( ! empty( $user_id ) && $user_id !== bp_loggedin_user_id() ) {
		$show_hidden = array(
			'column' => 'hide_sitewide',
			'value'  => 0
		);
	}

	// Determine groups of user.
	$groups = groups_get_user_groups( $user_id );
	if ( empty( $groups['groups'] ) ) {
		$groups = array( 'groups' => 0 );
	}

	// Determine the favorites.
	$favs = bp_activity_get_user_favorites( $user_id );
	if ( empty( $favs ) ) {
		$favs = array( 0 );
	}

	// Determine friends of user.
	$friends = friends_get_friend_user_ids( $user_id );
	if ( empty( $friends ) ) {
		$friends = array( 0 );
	}

	$retval = array(
		'relation' => 'OR',
		array(
			'relation' => 'AND',
			array(
				'column'  => 'user_id',
				'compare' => 'IN',
				'value'   => (array) $friends
			)
		),
		array(
			'relation' => 'AND',
			array(
				'column' => 'component',
				'value'  => buddypress()->groups->id
			),
			array(
				'column'  => 'item_id',
				'compare' => 'IN',
				'value'   => (array) $groups['groups']
			)
		),
		array(
			'relation' => 'AND',
			array(
				'column' => 'user_id',
				'value'  => $user_id
			)
		),
		array(
			'relation' => 'AND',
			array(
				'column'  => 'id',
				'compare' => 'IN',
				'value'   => (array) $favs
			)
		),
		array(
			'relation' => 'AND',
			array(
				'column'  => 'content',
				'compare' => 'LIKE',

				// Start search at @ symbol and stop search at closing tag delimiter.
				'value'   => '@' . bp_activity_get_user_mentionname( $user_id ) . '<'
			)
		),
		// We should only be able to view sitewide activity content for friends.
		array(
			'column' => 'hide_sitewide',
			'value'  => 0
		),

		// Overrides.
		'override' => array(
			'filter'      => array( 'user_id' => 0 ),
			'show_hidden' => true
		),
	);
	

	return $retval;
}
add_filter( 'bp_activity_set_all-activity_scope_args', 'bp_activity_filter_all_activity_scope', 10, 2 );

Once you have done that you would also want to overload the buddypress/bp-templates/your-template/members/single/activity.php to make sure this new page contains the post update form:

Change:

if ( is_user_logged_in() && bp_is_my_profile() && ( !bp_current_action() || bp_is_current_action( 'just-me' ) ) )
	bp_get_template_part( 'activity/post-form' );

To:

if ( is_user_logged_in() && bp_is_my_profile() && ( !bp_current_action() || bp_is_current_action( 'all-activity' ) ) )
	bp_get_template_part( 'activity/post-form' );

Note: with this method there is a danger of duplicating activity since a friend posting to a group would show up in the groups search as well as the friends search etc. so you may want to adjust the $retval criteria.

Also you might want to add a post form for visiting users so they can leave a comment for the user, you could ad this:

function bpex_load_mention_me() {
	
	if ( get_current_user_id() != bp_displayed_user_id() ) {
		$_GET['r'] = bp_activity_get_user_mentionname( bp_displayed_user_id() );
		bp_get_template_part( 'activity/post-form' );
	}

}

add_action( 'bp_before_member_body', 'bpex_load_mention_me' );

Is this not regarding WordPress post comments on a WordPress custom post type? If so it’s nothing to do with BuddyPress.

Hey, it looks like I gave up just a tad early. I think I’ve got it working now:

function bpex_set_member_default_nav() {
 
    	if ( ! bp_is_user_profile() && ! bp_is_user_activity() && ! bp_is_user() ) {
		return;
	}
        
        if ( bp_displayed_user_id() == get_current_user_id() ) {
        
        bp_core_new_nav_default(
            array(
                'parent_slug'       => buddypress()->activity->id,
	        // other "activity" sub_nav slugs : personal favorites friends groups mentons
                'subnav_slug'       => 'friends',
                'screen_function'   => 'bp_activity_screen_friends'
            )
        );
    }
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_set_member_default_nav', 20 );

add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_just_me_tab', 50 );
add_action( 'bp_setup_admin_bar', 'bpex_admin_bar_add', 50 );

function bpex_just_me_tab() {
	
	if ( ! bp_is_user_profile() && ! bp_is_user_activity() && ! bp_is_user() ) {
		return;
	}
	
	global $bp;
	$is_own_view = false;
	$user_id = bp_displayed_user_id();
	
	if ( get_current_user_id() == $user_id ) $is_own_view = true;
	

	if ( $is_own_view ) {

		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'just_me');

		bp_core_new_subnav_item( array(
			'name'            => _x( 'Personal', 'Profile activity screen sub nav', 'buddypress' ),
			'slug'            => 'just-me',
			'parent_url'      => bp_core_get_user_domain( $user_id ) . 'activity/',
			'parent_slug'     => 'activity',
			'screen_function' => 'bp_activity_screen_my_activity',
			'position'        => 10
		) );
	}

}

function bpex_admin_bar_add() {
	
	global $wp_admin_bar, $bp;

	if ( ! bp_use_wp_admin_bar() || defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) ) {
		return false;
	}

	$user_id = get_current_user_id();
	
	if ( ! $user_id || $user_id == 0 || ! is_numeric( $user_id ) ) {
		return;
	}
	
	// Personal.
	$wp_admin_bar->remove_menu( 'my-account-activity-personal', 'my-account-activity' );

	$wp_admin_bar->add_menu( array(
		'parent'   => 'my-account-activity',
		'id'       => 'my-account-activity-personal',
		'title'    => 'Personal',
		'href'     => bp_core_get_user_domain( $user_id ) . 'activity/180/',
		'position' => 10
	) );
}

Give it a try
