BuddyPress.org

I created be the Activity page, it doesn’t show whatever content I’ve typed into the top.

Correct. BP will remove any content that you add that way and inject BP content instead.

You can find BP specific info here.

Re nav: You can control the top nav by using the WP menus.
Go to wp-admin > Appearance > Menus and explore all the options.

I took a look at BuddyPress Like and it looks like it’s far from ready for use, so I think I’d look at https://wordpress.org/plugins/favorites/ instead, you could create a Profile page for the users list of likes and add your weighting based on your criteria.

I think based on your requirement that for your ultimate requirement you will need some custom coding. This is due to you wanting to add weighting to the likes.

One option would be to enable new blog posts to appear in the BuddyPress activity stream. That would automatically allow BuddyPress users to favorite the activity and for it to appear in their list of favorites in their profile. However you won’t easily be able to add your weighting since the BP favorites system dones not have this functionality. But that’s the same for any existing plugin. The potential downside is that the BP Activity stream is not just posts (which would have to be enabled with a bit of code).

There are also a number of WordPress post specific likes plugins, however these don’t give you a profile page with a list of your likes and the same issue remains that they would not support you weighting.

If it was me, I’d probably look to use a plugin such as BuddyPress Like as a basis for my solution. I’ve not looked in detail at this plugin but I’m assuming it adds the ability to like posts and display a list of likes in the users profile. That would serve as a good basis for what I was looking to do. It would then need some modification in order to support your specific weighting mechanism. The complexity of that task would depend on exactly how you want your weighting mechanism to work and the technique you use to account for it when displaying the likes list.

Did you read the codex page re the members loop?

You cannot add custom parameters to the loop.
You can write a custom query to gather all the member ids that fit your criteria and then pass those ids into the include parameter of the members loop.

Go to your wp-admin screen. Then go to Settings > BuddyPress > Components

If you cannot go to your wp-admin screen, then you have a major WP problem and probably need to install everything from scratch.

Hi there, I can confirm I’m also seeing this behaviour, could you raise this as a bug on Trac?

Does it do this with only BuddyPress active?

afaik, BuddyPress does not add that text or links to the registration page or widget.

Find out how that text and links were added to the screen and you’ll know how to edit them.
Maybe the logy-register-widget? Whatever the f@ck that is.

Hi there,

This is happening because the Nouveau register page will not submit without an email being entered into the field. There’s a number of possible solutions to this, all of them pretty hacky. So for example you could use JavaScript to remove the required status of the email field. However you mentioned overloading the register page and I’ll give you my more hacky solution. Be warned you will probably need to do more work to get your register page looking right. My solution is to replace that section of the Nouveau registration form with the Legacy content.

So you’d replace this:

<?php bp_nouveau_signup_form(); ?>

with this:

<label for="signup_username"><?php _e( 'Username', 'buddypress' ); ?> <?php _e( '(required)', 'buddypress' ); ?></label>

<input type="text" name="signup_username" id="signup_username" value="<?php bp_signup_username_value(); ?>" <?php bp_form_field_attributes( 'username' ); ?>/>

<label for="signup_email"><?php _e( 'Email Address', 'buddypress' ); ?> <?php _e( '(required)', 'buddypress' ); ?></label>

<input type="email" name="signup_email" id="signup_email" value="<?php bp_signup_email_value(); ?>" <?php bp_form_field_attributes( 'email' ); ?>/>

<label for="signup_password"><?php _e( 'Choose a Password', 'buddypress' ); ?> <?php _e( '(required)', 'buddypress' ); ?></label>

<input type="password" name="signup_password" id="signup_password" value="" class="password-entry" <?php bp_form_field_attributes( 'password' ); ?>/>

<div id="pass-strength-result"></div>

<label for="signup_password_confirm"><?php _e( 'Confirm Password', 'buddypress' ); ?> <?php _e( '(required)', 'buddypress' ); ?></label>

<input type="password" name="signup_password_confirm" id="signup_password_confirm" value="" class="password-entry-confirm" <?php bp_form_field_attributes( 'password' ); ?>/>

Like I say it’s not the prettiest solution but it should get you moving forward.

Hi there,

BuddyPress uses the server date to work out the dates for notifications so I think the first thing to ask if is your server date is showing correctly. You can check this in Settings>>General.

I think a good enhancement would be for this hook to pass some data: bp_core_general_settings_after_save
Currently, there is no way to tell if there were errors.
The same issue is found in the other files in bp-settings/actions/

You can open an enhancement ticket here.

Sounds like you need to ask Yoast to add support for BuddyPress.

I can confirm this bug. And it is not specific to a Template Pack.
Some formatting is lost : afaik, the 3 alignment options and the numbered and bullet lists.

I believe this is due to the allowed tags array used by BP.
Those tags are not allowed and therefore are stripped when edits are saved.

The allowed tags need to be altered to allow those tags.
Or filtered to allow those tags when profile edits are saved and a Multi-Line Text Area field is present.
