BuddyPress members are the same as WordPress users as far as the database is concerned. They are all saved in the wp_users table.
Possibly the best way of doing this would be to create a custom xprofile field type that encompasses your universities as a drop down list. There used to be the perfect template for you on github – a BuddyPress Xprofile Country Picker – all youd really need to do is swap out the countries for universities. However, I can’t find it, but a deeper search might find it somewhere.
One option is to let the users enter the site details themselves using https://github.com/shanebp/BP-xProfile-Location however that’s probably not ideal for you.
You could use one of the existing Xprofile field types as a template for what you want to do. There’s a number of Xprofile Custom field type plugins around, a quick search in the plugins directory and you will find them, find on that provides a drop down list and fork that. This way you let BP do most of the work for you.

BuddyPress does not come with a Shop/edit page
Hello,
I tried to implement this code but without success.
function bpex_set_member_default_nav() {
bp_core_new_nav_default (
array(
'parent_slug' => buddypress()->activity->id,
// other "activity" sub_nav slugs : personal favorites friends groups
'subnav_slug' => 'friends',
'screen_function' => 'bp_activity_screen_friends'
)
);
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_set_member_default_nav', 9 );
My BuddyPress version is 3.0
Have any change?
I activate to the debug and I don’t receive any error
I tried to signup and yes it failed. Did you reset email? tools>buddypress>reset email Otherwise it looks like a plugin conflict to me. I would deactivate one by one. Also, deactivate 15zine and try twentyseventeen

Hey, sorry for the delay. June was a crazy month. I do need this fixed though, and would still really appreciate your help.
Although I don’t think this has anything to do with the issue at hand, I followed this (https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/11766/trunk/src/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/activate.php) just in case, and changed the activate.php file, but it didn’t help.
People cannot register to the site. If you’d like to try it, you will see that it sends you the activation link via email, but then asks for a valid activation key (?!). Nothing works.

Also, users sometimes show up as only “participants” and don’t show up under “all”. I have my general settings for New User Default Role as “subscriber” but it’s not applying it.
Thank you so much!

Ok,
The weirdest thing… I’m having this same issue, but….. On only of my groups…. I’ve used the buddypress tools to reinstate/repair activity.. and I also repaired my database and renewed permalinks… What the heck.. and even more weird… Its not all gone (group activity) the older stuff is all gone and ALL the videos he had posted…
chats to be indexed in the message component of buddy press.
BP Better Messages
BP Better Messages – is a fully featured replacement for standard BuddyPress Messages. Plugin is fully backward compatible with BuddyPress Messages.
Websocket version (fast) $9.99 (licence) month, but I wonder if you only need to pay for one month
gravity forms allows mapping of buddypress fields with form builder, and was made for it.

@quigley05 which template file you are modifying, member-specific template files inside buddypress/members/single display content based on displayed user id.
If it was me I’d retrace the function that is producing that message and work back from it to find out what BP check is failing in order to understand what data BP is looking for, I’d then check the data stored in the DB to make sure it’s correct.
One thing you could try is to goto admin>>Tools>>BuddyPress and see if the DB fix tools supplied help.
Sorry, it had nothing to do with buddypress. I just need to use update_user_meta() from WordPress.
It’s worth trying deleting BuddyPress and reinstalling, but this seems more db related. Basically BuddyPress thinks your users do not have the right privileges to view their messages.
You might like to raise this as a feature request in trac?
I’m not exactly sure what you are asking. Are you looking for new video posts to create an activity update in BuddyPress?
You should raise this as big on Trac
I think you will need to raise this as a feature request on trac
I’m also getting this on my test system so it does look like a bug. do you want to raise it as an issue on Trac?
Hello,
As an admin i created a group with a few members. I notice BuddyPress has a few default pages, but what i want is a link to that one group only.
So the default is https://website.com/groups
And the link to that groups is https://website.com/groups/groupname
I will have several groups, so the second link should be based on the member.
I hope i am clear enough 🙂

Hi,
When clicked on the activation link in the mail it takes you to the site only to have it say: ‘Please provide a valid activation key.’
After that is an input field for an activation key. If you copy the key from the url and place it into the input field and press submit it works. Obviously, it should do this automatically and it doesn’t.
The issue is not theme nor plugin related as it still occurs when the default theme is activated and only the buddypress plugin is activated. All the above mentioned versions are updated to the latest.

You should raise this in the Shortcodes for BuddyPress support forum
It’s possible but not easily, this ticket talks about doing something like it:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6694
When you had the profile shortcodes plugin activated, you got the fatal error that an undefined function was being called – bp_get_messages_slug, however this function does exist in any BuddyPress install that has messages enabled, so that error is pointing to a problem with your config – either something is stopping BP from loading correctly or messaging is not enabled. This pretty much points to other issues on your system which are messing with BP. Sometimes plugins throwing errors can provide useful insights into issues elsewhere in your install.
