BuddyPress is send WAY to many emails to my users, I want to disable all the email notifications but keep email activation open, How would I go about doing this. This is urgent, my host is very upset with the number of emails.
As a work-around, I wonder if I could use this plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-xprofiles-acl/ to assign roles based on the profile field answer.
Then I could more easily show different sidebars depending on roles.
Not the cleanest way to do it. Has anyone else had trouble with checkboxes?
I’d like to add a blog to my site and I’m confused on how to. I’d like to add a Blog tab in the navigation with a blogroll that I could add daily posts.
Here is my site: http://www.sharemickey.com
Wordpress Version 3.2
Buddypress Version 1.2.9
BuddyBoss Version 1.1.2
Thanks,
Joe
It’s a cookie problem that was not fixed in v1.2.
However, it is fixed in v1.3:

Howdy all,
I am trying to create a website where there are TWO Profile TYPES.
1. Normal User (let’s say soccer players)
2. Client User (coaches and/or teams)
At registration the person chooses the TYPE of USER they are; once they choose Player or Coach, the registration form changes to incorporate the fields for that TYPE of PROFILE. Thus the PROFILE TEMPLATE is different for the PLAYER and COACH.
I am having the hardest time doing this. I can’t even find an example of an outside company who has already done this work in wordpress/buddypress. So even if I want to hire an outside company who has done this; I can’t.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
we have relaunched the homepage and a lot more.
you can also vote for us at the wordpress showcase https://wordpress.org/showcase/plazaa/ 
My question is, how I can edit the Navigation in Buddypress (I’d like to make a dropdown menu, is there eventually any plugin)? I tried the search field here in the forums, didnt’ work though. Hopefully anyone can help me with this. Thanks a lot!
Yes, i upgrade WP first using auto update when I saw there was an update available in the dashboard. With the WP site, all went well. My BuddyPress site seemed fine until i clicked on the members link and I got the page not found message. i then saw in the dashboard that 1.29 was available for BP (it was not offered before this point). Thinking this would sort the problem with the members page i ran the auto update for 1.29. After that all the main links gave the same message. The message does not say 404 on it, it just has two lines:
‘Page Not Found’ and ‘The page you are looking for cannot be found’. thats all.
The permalink structure is set to ‘Numeric’.
@LPH2005 Good point, I dont know if it gets overwritten, I’ll have to look into that..
@mercime It looks the same. I deactivated all plugins both on the network and in each individual site (I have 3 sites in my network). Made sure the default Buddypress theme was activated (only on one site) and Buddypress on network activate.
I believe you had told me to follow these steps before in the WordPress forums before, but it didn’t work that time either. What could be causing this issue?
So I have the latest version of wordpress 3.2 and Buddypress 1.2.9 but I’m still getting this error when I check the error console in firefox. I also notice two things, drop down menus in navigation don’t work and the homepage headline slider does not function. I’m using buddypress daily as a theme. Thanks.
@lockamiz23 have you tried the troubleshooting basics like changing theme to bp-default and deactivating all plugins except BuddyPress?
Hey there. I’m using s2Member in conjunction with BuddyPress, and I’ve been having trouble figuring out my registration page.
Mainly, I’m not sure how to make some fields private, and others public. I might just be missing something, but I’ve been looking at so many plugins and features lately, it’s gotten confusing.
Say I want to collect the user’s phone number and street address for billing, but I don’t want it showing up on their profile. How would I go about this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hi Folks, please can you help me set up a Register page on my WP site; http://www.eastendersspoilers.co.uk.
I know that people are registering ok but I want to make a page so they can navigate easier. I have already made my site ‘buddypress ready’ and everything else (groups, activities etc) work ok as I have created pages for these by pasting the link on the relevant page. It wont let me do this for a register page tho : (
Please can you look at my site and you’ll see what I mean.
Many Thanks,
Chris
I don’t remember ever having set them other than in the beginning when i had to select a new format for them. i’ve just been to the permalinks tab in the dashboard and re saved the setting and it says permalink structure updated, but theres no change. Is there somewhere else I should check? I have also looked in the error log and from the the day i did the upgrade (automatic) there is this line:
‘[05-Jul-2011 10:34:43] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method wpdb::WPDB() in /home/sannyasn/public_html/now/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bp-forums-bbpress.php on line 144’, repeated 7 times. I looked at line 144 but it does mean much to me.
As has been mentioned and blog posted about there are site maintenance things going on this week.
bp-album uses the activity stream to add comments.
Blog post != activity stream.
What I’d recommend is to disable activity replies for blog posts and comments.
To do this, login to your WP dashboard and navigate to “BuddyPress > General Settings”.
Under “Disable activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts?”, select “Yes” and save.
sorry to but in, but has there been a change in here, I can’t start new topics, and my previous topics are unable to be found?
Check out the activity stream loop:
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-activity-stream-loop/
You’ll need to pass the “object” param as “groups” and the “primary_id” param as the group ID.
eg.
if ( bp_has_activities( ‘object=groups&primary_id=’ . YOUR_GROUP_ID ) ) :
… the rest of the code as written in the codex article
Testing is hugely important, the more people doing that the better, spotting bugs and feeding back will help ensure bug fix point releases are reduced.
Just want to say thanks to everyone working on BP 1.3.
I wish I could get involved coding somehow but I have no experience whatsoever unfortunately. I know how to use BP inside out though and could test EVERY aspect thoroughly if that’s any use to anyone?

Is buddypress.org using latest WP+BP+ latest Buddypress Follow.
I cannot seem to get them work though they worked in the previous versions. Its a fresh install of atest WP+BP+ latest Buddypress Follow but Follow button or sidebar widget does not show up.
I am badly stuck up – any idea to get this working?
Deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress, keep on the bp-default theme and clear cache and cookies. How’s the BP Admin Bar now?
