Multilingual plugin needed yesterday!!! This is 2010 almost 2011 I can’t believe there is no metalanguage plugin for buddypress every other aspect works with wpml + wpmu
Hello all,
So Iv recently started using buddypress and am very satisfied with it. however, the new site comes with a WHOOOOOLE lot of spammers and fake users who register using email accounts such as “@tvjapanlisting.co”
And there are 100s of them!
So I was wondering what would you guys suggest me to do? Are there any plugins that may help (other than Akismet, because I have that installed)?
Thanks!

BP Codex is your friend. Disable the custom header functionality on the default BuddyPress theme … add the following to your wp-config.php file:
`define( ‘BP_DTHEME_DISABLE_CUSTOM_HEADER’, true );`
I looking around buddypress/bp-groups.php
function groups_format_notifications( $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items ) {
if ( (int)$total_items > 1 ) return apply_filters( ‘bp_groups_multiple_new_membership_requests_notification’, ……. )
else return apply_filters( ‘bp_groups_single_new_membership_request_notification’, ……)
}
but I don’t know how to loop single notification instead of using multiple notification.
Hi @r-a-y thanks for the message, but that seems to return the variable as plain text too, hmmmm?
thanks for the update @techguy. I think I’m okay with spam also, but just want the text “Check your email for activation” to stand out.
@r-a-y, I have the same problem.
I have no idea how to add a patch either
Thanks @r-a-y.
I have no idea how to add a patch…. no idea.
And I am using 1.2.5 because 1.2.6 gives me more problems than I can imagine
thanks @mercime
actually I was using this .
“
and it was creating the problem , now after I removed this line , its all ok ….
but the other problem I mentioned about unable to change the default-header.jpg image from the default.css #header , it still persist …
can you please show me some light ?
Check out the BP Media plugin and other event plugins in: https://buddypress.org/extend/ See if they meet your needs or not. I know the media plugin for example has been working on some major caching of the images, so it might be fine for you. Try it out and see.
There’s a BP job group where you can post a request for a WP/BP developer to help you with the project: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/
Thanks for noting the problems!
Added a potential fix here:
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2661
Try reading up on enabling a third-party provider for WordPress’ embedding capability:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds#How_Can_I_Add_Support_For_More_Websites.3F
If you want to use Wistia code, which I’m guessing you need to use the “ or “ tags, you’ll need to bypass the activity filters that are in place by default, so malicious content will not get the chance to be executed.
If you trust your userbase, you can disable these filters by reading this:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/make-users-able-to-use-and-in-their-posts
Or this:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/embedded-video-in-forums-and-streams/
If you’re planning on just embedding the Wistia video on a blog post, just enable some form of WordPress plugin that allows you to embed content like this:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/embed-object/
@yakster, I also have this issue with my groups.
Same with deleting users….. It’s not my plugins causing problems.
maybe @hnla, @mercime, @r-a-y @boonebgorges, or @apeatling, @crashutah, @DJPaul, could assist us.
Your best bet is to modify the css for the theme. I use Fifefox with the plugin Firebug. This allows you to highlight different sections of the site and see its styling and modify till you get things right and then apply that to your actual code.
Your problem is not buddypress related and is better suited in a html/css forum.
I have a following situation:
I’m running a BuddyPress Social Network and using the default “Full Name” field as First Name for registration. I also added a mandatory custom field called Last Name… So, the members profile page looks like it should.
My question:
How can I use the current field configuration to display members Full Names (using both fields)?
I’m trying to embedd Video that is hosted at Wistia. The video displays fine on it’s page, but only displays as code on the homepage & category pages.
From what I’ve read on other posts I guess I could use the oEmbedd plugin. But the thing is I need to take advantage of Wistia’s analytics, which require embedding the video using their code, rather than just using a link. These are corporate videos for a specific audience and ‘they’ would like to know who’s watching them and for how long, etc.
If someone could direct me to a function I could add to make it work or a work around I’d appreciate it. Also, I’m not that familiar with buddypress’s architecture; so it would help if you are specific. I greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks for responding. Yes, storage and hosting are definitely concerns.
And I’m not sure if this is the right place, but do you (or anyone else) know where I can find WP/BP developers for help with this scenario?
The home page of my website (URL: predds.info/wordpress) always displays “Not Found Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.” And a search bar, how do I get rid of it. I looked through the code and I know it has something to do with buddypress. Please help me out, I have tried everything within my ability to fix this problem!
Thanks
Jonathan
yes i do see the fields with ie they just dont work, put file and nothing happens, no thumbnails, no files, no links, while same file with chrome or firefox uploads fine to the post
You basically have to unhook how BuddyPress creates feeds and create your own files and display methods.
Here’s a thread from awhile back detailing how to do this for the group activity feed:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/group-activity-feed-1/
You should be able to duplicate this for all the other feeds as well.
This is the default behaviour, which is kind of counter-intuitive.
I would recommend using the BP Group Email subscription plugin instead (which I believe you’re thinking of):
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-email-subscription/
Haven’t tested this, but try adding your message in a variable:
`
$message = ‘
This is my message with a link
‘;
bp_core_add_message( $message );
`
As far as I know, there is no automatic matching plugin based on a user’s profile fields.
However, users can manually search for other members.
Use the BP profile search plugin for more fine-tuned searches:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-profile-search/
Hi,
I have a plug that I am using and I want to add an html link into the message in this code:
`bp_core_add_message( __( ‘Your account is now active!’,’buddypress’ ) );`
I try with PHP, but my skills are very limited, can anyone help me.
Thanks
The code for the BP login form can be found from line 40 to line 52 here. Adjust divs and format to taste.
