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.
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
Yes, When Icreate a topic and create a reply in bbPress it does not create an item in the BuddyPress activity stream.
Is it better to assign these two post IDs to “$args” and call new as “new WP_Query ($args)”?
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.
Mean you don’t know how 🙂
members/bps-form-home – located in: /buddypress/ Should I ask then support from OpenCart Or Magento if this is not an issue of BuddyPress
And maybe Extended Profiles (Customize your community with fully editable profile fields that allow your users to describe themselves.) is not a part of BuddyPress too? Because only the gender got wrong search results – and this is BuddyPress Profile Field
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.
I am using buddypress 4.1.0 and rtMedia. When I upload a photo from rtMedia’s media in the group page, it appears in the activity, but the link of the poster in the activity is displayed with the html string of a href = “” . I think that it is a bug, do you know how to fix it?
Hi,
in general setting, buddypress. You need to assigne a page to the groups, if this page have this name “community”, have you try it?
Hi BuddyPress community,
I’ve been struggling with this problem for a few days now, and since i can’t find an answer i come for your help.
I want to edit some files (some functions within them) from the “public_html\wp-content\plugins\buddypress\bp-templates\bp-nouveau\includes” Directory, like “functions.php”, and “template-tags.php”. The issue i have, is that i don’t know how to edit them on my child theme (i don’t want the changes go away every time i update BuddyPress).
So the question is.. How can i edit those files in my child theme?.
Thank you very much guys. Please explain me like you were teaching a kid so i can understand (im not very experienced at this, so please bear with me).

Hello Henry,
where can I find a list of HOOKs I can use with BuddyPress?
For example changing the login_name after registration.
Cheers,
denis
Redirect users to buddypress profile edit page after sign up: TOPIC:
this code: via https://buddypress.org/support/topic/redirect-users-to-buddypress-profile-edit-page-after-sign-up/
.. this doesnt seem to work either.. @shanebp
Just a guess… Try:
1. Change the title and the slug of ‘the page about membership benefits’.
2. Go to Settings > Buddypress > Pages and make sure that you have not assigned ‘the page about membership benefits’ to any BuddyPress components.
Venutius, I’m telling you 🙂 the whole arrangement (theme, plugins, etc.) was working until the recent big Buddypress update. Then my manually placed whatsnewbox stopped showing.
But I’m the nice guy 😛 I have put
define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true);
+ let’s see what we get. 🙂
With all the plugins deactivated apart from BuddyPress, did it work at all? Same goes with your theme. Do you have error logging switched on? I’m thinking there must be an error showing somewhere and you are just not seeing it.
See this page to see how to enable the error log https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress
I didn’t edit it. So you have seen the screenshots where could these strings possibly come from? I’ve edited the Theme (2017). The plugin and buddypress but I’m still seeing these words where could the have come from?
The export data information should contain the personal information held by your plugins and wordpress, it should not contain data about plugins, I’m not sure how you would remove that, it’s not specifically a BuddyPress Question.
OK… Maybe not a string. A Word then perhaps?
A word is a string.
A string is a type of variable – text – example: unfriend
An integer is a type of variable without a decimal point – number – example: 33
A float is a type of variable – number with a decimal point – example: 45.67
Again – the string ‘unfriend’ is not coming from BuddyPress – unless you have edited it.
sorry, I only stumbled over your most recent response now. Apparently, this forum does not really send notifications on replies. Either way –
No, I’m not getting any errors. It just stays blank. I’ve tried 2 plugins to circumvent in the meantime (or rather drill into what they’re doing different, in case they work/ed), alas
which has me scratching my head.
I would very much prefer to get this going without having to use a plugin for a simple display job such as this. Bit I can’t seem to figure out why the solution I had in place stopped working.
