BuddyPress.org

BuddyPress does not handle payments or paywalls.
You’ll need a paid membership plugin.
There are some free ones in the WP plugin repo that you could try out.

So, your question is not really about BuddyPress.
Ultimately the decision on how / what to implement will depend on your research and the specifics of your project.

I thought it was a problem with my Events plugin but i uninstalled it and the problem persisted until i uninstalled buddypress.

Your welcome.

Ticket’s here:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8033

I’ve just looked at a test server and I’m getting the same issue. If I edit the profile I can see the extra tab and edit the profile fields it contains, but when I view the profile it only shows the Base profile group.

Would you mind rasing this as a bug on trac?

Thanks, have you overloaded any of the BP template files? located in themes/yourchildtheme/buddypress

You can chekc in Settings>>BuddyPress>>Options

Use the filter hooks to modify the output.
For example, see the filter hook for: bp_message_thread_from()

Do a search in the buddypress files for bp_is_user or bp_is_, bp has a number of functions such as bp_is_user_profile() or bp_is_user_activity, function bp_is_user_profile_edit(), bp_is_group() which confirm if the user is accessing different pages.

Hi there,

I’m not entirely certain what you are asking for. By default BuddyPress does not ask for physical addresses, have these been added to the users extended profile or are you referring to some other feature?

You should raise this as a feature request on BuddyPress Trac

Hi there,

You could do it using the additional site CSS section of Customizer.

Have you found your browser console? Right-click the page and choose inspect Element. This will allow you to inspect the CSS used on the page, modify it on the fly in order to find the best CSS element to set the background color. For example something like this might do the trick:

.buddypress-wrap {
    background: black;
}

Hi there,

You are going to have to troubleshoot this issue as it’s specific to your site and not something that’s a more general problem.

The first thing t do is to deactivate all plugins apart from BuddyPress and see if the friends lists are correct. If not then try a default theme such as 2016 to see if that corrects it.

It’s also worth turning on error logging in wp-config.php https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress

Once you have enabled debugging, any errors will be logged to your debug log, you can get error log viewer plugins to make viewing it easier. Try viewing the friends list and then reviewing the log to see if any errors are being generated.

BuddyPress does not include a feature to sell membership

The next thing to check is if there is something messing with the BP pages, so deactivate all other plugins apart from BuddyPress and install a default theme such as 2016 and see if they display.

Hi there,

Two things to check:

1. Have you linked the pages to BuddyPress in Settings/BuddyPress/Pages?

2. Have you changed your permalink settings to be anything other than the WordPress Default?

Do you want to override template files? If yes, the first step is to find out which template pack you are using(Dashboard->settings->BuddyPress->Options).

BuddyPress comes with 2 template packs
– BP Legacy
– BP Nouveau

Once you know the template pack, you can follow the following step

1. create a directory named “buddypress” in your theme
2. Now visit wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates, you will see two directories
– bp-legacy
– bp-nouveau
3. Based on your current template pack, visit that directory. You will find “buddypress” directory inside them. This is the directory of your interest. Copy files from there and maintain the path.

For example, if bp-legacy is your current template pack and you want to modify members loop,

you should copy wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/members-loop.php to yourtheme/buddypress/members/members-loop.php

Note the path after the template pack is what we need to maintain. Once you override it, BuddyPress will use it form your theme.

Please do note that themes do not allow you to specify template pack while overriding template files, so if you override it for one template pack and then activate another, It can lead to a lot of issues.

My suggestion is to remove/rename the “buddypress” directory in your theme if you change the current template pack for BuddyPress.

Hope this helps.

so the directory structure should look like this:

themes/your-child-theme/buddypress/members/file.php etc. can you confirm this is what you have got?

Would you have a plugin or theme that is redirecting the buddypress default template search?

Are you saying bp_loggedin_user_domain() did not work?
If so, buddypress may not be available when that filter hook fires.

You could try using this: http://mysiteurl/members/me/
When clicked, BuddyPress will redirect the me to the profile page of the logged-in user.

Quite a few of my users also wish to be able to crop their cover photos. Is there custom code I can add to allow users to do this? I haven’t found it on any of the forum posts so far and most are over a year old. This seems to be the most recent.

For those searching, here’s the codex of cover images (group and profile) and tells you how to customize the image size that you will accept for this area, but still not telling you how to allow cropping.

BuddyPress Cover Images

I’m on Version 4.1.0

I’d first try switching between BP Nouveau and BP Legacy in settings/BuddyPress/Options. I’d then try a default theme.
