BuddyPress.org

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

Thank you for the details. No need to change the theme.

Can you please visit the Dashboard->Settings->BuddyPress and tell me which template pack is active? I will need one more detail after that to assist you.

@sbrajesh i am using the default theme twenty-seventeen. I cant find a buddypress folder on it. what do you suggest i do? what free theme do you recommend i use at this time?

Hi,
The way the activation link and the way input is filled changed in 3.0.

If you are using a custom theme or have a copy of activate.php in yourtheme/buddypress/members/, you will need to update it.

Please open the file yourtheme/buddypress/members/activate.php in an editor and look for a line like this

<input type="text" name="key" id="key" value="" />

Change it to

<input type="text" name="key" id="key" value="<?php echo esc_attr( bp_get_current_activation_key() ); ?>" />

That will auto fill the input key.

Hope it helps.

Regards
Brajesh

Doesnt work

all the big people keep posting this link, it doenst work, everything is in order but it wont just work. Why not include the activation code to their email so that they can copy it. I activated someones email by copying it from the address bar, now i have a bunch of users piled up that cant activate i know its because they are not seeing it in the box and dont know that they can activate it via copying from browser address.

What would it be for the CSS?

This down;t work:

.all-members {
display: none;
}

(because I am not using the Buddypress theme to do it his way).

Have you tried the solution mentioned here.

Please use the code button when posting code.

BuddyPress does not show the user role on a user profile.

Can you find out if it is your theme or some plugin that is showing the role?
That would be the best place to make your change.
