BuddyPress.org

No response….I ran into the same error. The link just isn’t working right

Don’t click on the Howdy part, just hover, in the pull down menu go to the dark grey, profile, edit and it works (taking you to https://buddypress.org/members/timothylegg/profile/edit/group/1/ )

BuddyPress reactions are a bit slow on this one….

I have experience with both plugins: Peepso and BuddyPress.

BuddyPress is a free plugin and offers integration with BBPress forum. It has its own look and feel, very different from Facebook. For visitors it can be difficult to understand where to do what. It does have tons of option to extend it with other plugins. To be honest you will need other plugins to get some functionality. You can customise a lot if you want to. Development is not too fast as it is run by volunteers….also means less headaches with constant updates ;-). To be honest I find the BuddyPress website a bit confusing, like the plugin it doesn’t follow standard website look and feel.

Peepso is a paid plugin. The free plugin is pretty useless if you ask me, so if you decide to go with Peepso you will probably need the Ultimate Bundle. This bundle offers a lot of options and follows Facebooks look and feel. Users will understand right away how it works. Updates are on a regular basis, like every 2 weeks with bugfixes and extra functionality.

Pros BuddyPress
Free
Extendable with other plugins

Cons BuddyPress
Missing some basic options (can be added with 3rd party plugins)
Bit confusing for new users
More plugins needed – compatibility – problems? – multiple developers -> frustration?

Pros Peepso
Complete package if you go for Ultimate bundle
Users understand Facebook…and Peepso
1 stop shop – 1 plugin – 1 developer

Cons Peepso
Expensive
NOT multilingual! (bit weird for a social network!)
Use as is – fast developing means fast updates breaking customisations.

If you want to build a social network in 1 language, got the money and want an easy solution go for Peepso. I choose BuddyPress as I use WPML and 2 languages.

Not true.
In fact others have the same issue.

Thanks

Hi,

Please try this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/shortcodes-for-buddypress/ and use members listing shortcode to get the content of the members directory page.

Thanks

You don’t say which BP Template Pack you are using.
Or if you are using cover images on profiles.

If you are using the BuddyPress Legacy pack – open the appropriate file from these choices:

buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\cover-image-header.php
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\member-header.php

And find: do_action( 'template_notices' );

If you are using the BuddyPress Nouveau pack – then the direct call is not in a template.
Look this function bp_nouveau_template_notices() in
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-nouveau\includes\template-tags.php

Make sure that you are not running any code that filters notices.

Did you ask the creators of BuddyPress Activity Plus about your issue?

Have you tried switching momentarily to a WP theme like 2016?
If you do and the problems are resolved, then you know the issue is in your theme and you should speak to the theme creators.

BuddyPress does not add a random description or social icons.
You may also want to try deactivating plugins one at a time until you identify the source of the issue.
Then you can contact the developers for that plugin.

BuddyPress does not have membership levels.

If you are using another plugin for membership levels – ask them for the code to retrieve a membership level for the current user.

Then ask bbPress support ( bbpress.org/forums/ ) about the best hook to use to maybe restrict access.

check the counter under users. If you can resend one via the admin function, it is not a hosting issue it is a bp bug.

Also if all the notices about new message and other notifications are being received by user it is not a hosting issue, it is a bp bug.

I have a full bbpress working environment which is grate and managed under secure and wp user accounts.

The new site I saw bp aka buddypress and it seem to meet the needs for what I am doing.
Profile are exclusive to each group for editing. this is option in profiles.

More later.

@haleyscorner yes I can resend from wp-admin>users>manage sign up

@sbrajesh thanks so much for your support

I’m simply going to insert a notice that will ask uses to copy code from their browser address and paste into box to activate. I have been trying that in the buddypress plugin but kept seeing nothing. Now u know its from the youzer plugin I’m going to do that while I work on a solution or wait for an update. Thanks so much.

setting buddypress disable profiles

After 30 minutes I finally found it. Here is a screen shot to help others find it.

Hi, make sure you are using latest Buddypress version and that your emails are being sent from your site

Thank you.

My first suggestion will be to try disabling the LH Private BuddyPress, if that does not solve it you should try deactivating Youzer and BP Force Profile photo(assuming bp-custom.php) and child theme’s functions.php does not have any redirection.

Please give it a try and let me know if any of the above resolves the issue?

is there anything special about the site? Like any redirection setup or content restriction?

LH Private BuddyPress? Restricts non logged in users from accessing other users profile, activity etc

…are you using any content restriction/redirection plugin?

wp super cache
youzer
title remover
short codes for buddypress
super pwa
lh private buddypress
gutenberg
font awesome 4 menus
child theme configurator
buddypress global search
buddypress activity autoloader
buddypress
bp force profile photo

Hi,
is there anything special about the site? Like any redirection setup or content restriction?
When you open the link, does it remain the same or do you get redirected to some other url?

I have tested with BuddyPress 3.2 and can see that the link of format

http://example.com/activate/qwLW319TDBVVJs7DkSZ4NK6OjWhrUNLt/

auto fills the key entry on activation page correctly.

Hi,
Thank you for the details. No need for the site link.

Can you please post the code from your wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/activate.php and post the code on pastebin.php and link me.

Regards
Brajesh

BuddyPress Legacy is the pack that is activated
