Lazy load will really speeds up a site, so it’s important to us. LiteSpeed Cache has image lazy loading which is compatible with the BuddyPress avatar uploading feature:

Thought that might help anyone who runs into this issue!

One solution I’ve found which works for BuddyPress and

Whether you use BuddyPress or not, you would need to write custom code to handle the access restrictions that you described.

I’ve not played with Toolset so have limited knowledge of that. I take it that it’s expecting a comma delimited list of usernames. my first question is – is it looking for the WP Username and is your list returning them correctly (as opposed to the BuddyPress fullname).

I think what I’d do first is to take the shortcode output and paste this into the Toolset shortcode manually to see if that works. If it does then it would appear the Toolset shortcode and your shortcode are not interacting properly.

Try something like this in your shortcode:

$args = array( 
    'group_id' => 666,  // set the ID somehow
    'exclude_admins_mods' => false
);

$group_members_result = groups_get_group_members( $args );
$group_members = array();

foreach(  $group_members_result['members'] as $member ) {
	$group_members[] = $member->ID;
}
 
return implode(", ", $group_members);

Check the $args by reviewing groups_get_group_members() in buddypress\bp-groups\bp-groups-functions.php

Imgur allows you to upload images and provide a link to view them.

By the sounds of things you probably have a conflict. Things I would try:

1. Set BuddyPress theme to BP Legacy
2. Deactivate all other plugins apart from BuddyPress
3. Try with a default theme such as 2016.

So does buddypress usually use the regular wordpress login user name? If a site just uses bbpress and buddypress – people set up an acccount just through wordpress and bbpress/buddypress use that?

Yes and yes.

Yikes, afaik, that is not done by BuddyPress.
It looks like you have a plugin or other code that allows emails as user names.
My guess re the ‘2-2-‘ bits is that more than one user was created with that email.
( Try a test registration using a unique email )
WP dictates that login names have to be unique.

BuddyPress uses the login names for @ mentions.
So does bbPress – for example, this forum where your @ mention name is: badusername

So, again, afaik, it will not be reasonably possible to simplify the @ mention names.
With considerable and complicated customization, it might be possible.

You could try WPUlike and maybe BuddyPress Activity Share

One thing about this is that since group creation is open to all users, creating a group would be a simple way to get post creation rights. You may want to look at BuddyPress Restrict Group Creation to limit who can create a group in the first place.

That’s probably one for the bbPress forums then – https://bbpress.org/forums/ within each group with a forum there should be a forum menu item that links to the group forum. I’d first check there are no plugin conflicts by deactivating all other plugins except for BuddyPress and bbPress, if you still don’t get the menu item within the group then try a default theme such as 2016. BuddyPress forums are provided by bbPress, so that’s the best place to go for support.

https://bbpress.org/forums/

The Groups page does not include any forums, just the group avatar, name and description. You can choose whether to include the groups forums in the forums page, and other options by following these instructions:

Installing Group and Sitewide Forums

I am trying to create forums for groups in buddypress using bbpress.

I am really struggling to understand how they integrate. I have read lots of documentation and been through numerous support.

My users can create a group and a a forum for that group.
That forum then goes onto the forum page under a parent forum of group forums.

Bit on the group’s page I can’t get the forums to show which is frustrating as when the user completes the group the forum isn’t viaible.

Can someone talk me through the set up or point me in the way of comprehensive instructions?

Thanks

Sounds like they have given you the brush off, clearly if it’s WooCommerce that is stopping another plugin from working then the onus is on them to fix it. If it was the other way round, BuddyPress was stopping a WooCommerce feature to stop working, then we’d need to look at it.

If I post “bbp_create_topic”

Do you mean, create a topic or create a reply in bbPress?
And it does not create an item in the BuddyPress activity stream?

btw- these are the BuddyPress forums.
The bbPress forums are here and are probably a better place to ask your question.

Mean you don’t know how

No, I mean your issue is not due to BuddyPress.
It is due to the plugin that you are using for member searches.
Again, you should ask the creators of that plugin.

members/bps-form-home – located in: /buddypress/

No, it is located in the additional code that you have added to buddypress.
Are you using the BP Profile Search plugin?
Go to the wp-admin area for your site.
On the left side, you should see a link to Plugins.
Click on that link and then you should see a list of the plugins on your site.
Look for the BP Profile Search plugin.
If you find it, then you know who to contact with your question.

BuddyPress does not include the code for those kinds of searches.
Please ask the support staff for your theme or for the plugin that handles your searches.
