Hi,
You can follow this thread https://premium.wpmudev.org/forums/topic/buddypress-wordpress-avatars-not-synching
You can remove the condition where it is checking if the user has uploaded avatar or not.
Thanks
I have both Buddypress and bbpress installed. bbpres is using local wordpress avatars that registered users uploaded even before bbpress was installed. I want Buddypress to do the same – use these local avatars instead of its own. I have found this code on bbpress codex and internets:
add_filter('bp_core_fetch_avatar_no_grav', '__return_true');
I added this code to bp-custom.php, but it`s seems like this code is not working anymore? I really need to make Buddypress to use local avatars just like bbpress do, please help.
I was just having this same problem with buddypress and customify and went into panic mode. However I found a fix. You need to go to plugins > buddypress settings > click options tab > find template pack and switch that to BuddyPress Legacy > save and youre done!
Hey! If you were using the Paid Membership Pro Buddypress add on, I’ve found a fix 🙂

DUH. I’m embarrassed but I figured out that it was a conflict with the Paid Memberships Pro buddypress plugin. If I find a fix I’ll post it here.
For some reason every member is showing under the ‘friendship requests’ tab on the profile page instead of just people that requested them. Some of the members are still listed as ‘never active’ but show under the request lists. Even brand new members immediately see all of the other members listed under requests w/ the option to accept or reject. Clicking ‘accept’ or ‘reject’ does nothing.
It’s a paid site but I can grant access if someone can help!

Buddypress 3.1.0 latest version
Wordpress 4.9.8
Theme WordPress Twenty Seventeen
Switched to Twenty Fifteen same results.
Using with Paid Membership Pro/Theme My Login
THANK YOU SO MUCH for this help!
It worked PERFECTLY! We were really in a bind with a new website we just launched.
I hope this is included in the next revisions of BuddyPress!
I have the same issue. I am currently using an Avada theme. My user profiles were working perfectly fine. Now they are just showing a blank page. I have tried deleting the buddypress plugin and reinstalling it but that has not helped. I have checked the pages that buddypress creates but these are blank, when viewed through the backend of wordpress. Any help on this problem?
There is no setting for that, afaik.
But there is code you can use – place the code in your theme/functions.php or in bp-custom.php
Read about the filter towards the bottom: https://codex.buddypress.org/emails/
More info: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/change-the-email-from-name-buddypress-email-templates/
I might try to just query it totally independent of the plugin functions…
Always an option, but first look at the functions provided in the buddypress\bp-xprofile\ directory.
For example: http://hookr.io/functions/xprofile_get_field_data/
@bonjarvis – thanks for the update. It is most often the case that the error is caused by code outside of BP – but determining the cause can be tricky. Momentarily deactivating plugins and/or switching themes is a solid first step.
If somebody thinks they have found an actual bug, they can create a ticket here
It won’t let me edit the post: I have fields in the WordPress profiles I’d like to be viewable and editable through the buddypress profile page, but the only way I can see is creating new profile fields which I can’t seem to link to the existing WordPress profile fields. Which means I’d have to manually copy date from the profile to the buddypress profile fields.
What am I missing?
That’s not what I mean, flashwolf.
I don’t know if you are just advertising another plugin, but I only wanted to ask how BuddyPress styles work, because I can’t seem to figure it out.
I have the same issue with my profile. This is most likely in violation in EU law. All too often, it requires a legal suit to get things fixed.
I get the suspicion this is a dying project given the major issues with it (my installation was broken upon installation on a fresh-new, non-customized wordpress). It’s either in a phase where they lost the developers that were doing the real work or they are working on consulting gigs to sell commercial services for people who offer to pay to have BuddyPress. I’m not sure which is the case.
I’m disappointed. Even for free software, I expect better. Check the logical quality of your work before you submit a release. It’s not that hard. Computers aren’t magic, they are machines that respond to prescribed conditions. There are core utilities in Linux/UN*X that are basically unchanged in 25 years because they got it right early on and stuck with what worked well. Today’s developers lost track of that.
We just introduced a cli command, wp bp notification delete, that might help you in deleting those notifications.

Hi,
You should look for any BuddyPress moderation solution. That might serve your purpose.
Thanks
yes like you
i dont understand why we can do something so horrible … no professionnal.
and i dont speak about the extension and their last update …
really i ask me a lot of question and i hesitate
ultimatemember or buddypress … i think it is compare apple and pc for the look …
Dear Prashant,
I already use this plugin and a few others from your great team, but the problem is that I have a field with a lot of checkboxes (more than 30). I wanted to change this long column to the select2 field. But I did not find that in the plugin.
In addition, I use a nice plugin “BP Profile Search” It allows you to selectively search by checkboxes.
That’s why I wanted to change checkboxes to the select2 field. So, I already have some decision. But I hope my idea will be realized in next releases of buddypress or bp-xprofile-custom-field-types.
Sincerely,
Vasily
The documentation for the Members Loop is here: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/loops-reference/the-members-loop
You will see that there are a number of hooks which you can add your additions into, particularly at line 44: do_action( 'bp_directory_members_item' ); and at line 59: do_action( 'bp_directory_members_actions' );
It works with the default members directory. It never needs an extra page to do so.
Sorry for any confusion, but I was saying that it never needs a new page to do so. Certainly if you will assign any other page in drop-down then also it will show the Buddypress members directory. To make this plugin work with any custom page you need to look if it can be customized.
@prashantvatsh the condition is ok, the problem is that even if I include buddypress.js or buddypress-nouveau.js its not working
When you change your member page from Buddypress settings it will show default buddypress content of member page… not your custom content.
Its just like you assign your Post page to Sample Page while you have custom content in Sample page but it will only display Your posts… not custom content.
What you are saying its not possible.
As you wrote in previous comment that we can change default buddypress member page from Geo My WP.
