Hi guys,
Thanks for the great job!
I want to create a marketplace where members will be able to upload products (photos, info made with BP Forms I assume) but the sale WILL NOT go through the website, meaning the buyers (members as well) will contact the sellers through message and arrange privately all the aspects of the sale.
I have Dokan Pro and BuddyPress that came with the theme I bought, but at the moment it seems like this combination doesn’t work for what I want and need.
My question is: Can I achieve having a social marketplace, where people WILL be able to upload products, but WON’T do the sales through the website (something like a Catalogue), with BuddyPress only? Can I just turn Dokan off, coz their dashboard is totally complicated and unnecessary for my idea (even when put on Catalogue mode)?
Thanks in advance, looking forward to your answer!
I.

Hello,
I am in charge of a site that uses wordpress, and buddypress. When someone receives a message, the old ones appear at the top and the recent at the bottom. When the page contains several messages, you lose time scrolling down the page each time before reading the most recent message. Is there a way to change the order of messages please? Thank you in advance.
cordially
Howdy

Hello Everyone!
I am building my own WordPress theme from scratch and im having an issue with Buddypress AJAX functions working on the “Buddypress Groups Widget”. When you click the “Newest | Active | Popular | Alphabetical” it just redirects the groups page instead of reloading dynamically on the page you are on, I thought this must be that the JS for Buddypress wasn’t getting injected properly, but it seems to be as other parts of buddypress JS are working, like the click to load more button.
When I use twenty seventeen the widget works fine.
I have disabled all other plugins to make sure there isn’t a conflict, no difference.
I have removed all Bootstrap 4 JS files to see if its a conflict, no difference.
I have the <?php wp_head(); ?> <?php wp_footer(); ?> in the right places for all the muck to be loaded
What else can I try to fix this? websites not live, im developing locally.
Thank you!
I think this a bigger issue. I just removed my tabs, and went with the default groups, my groups and create. the my groups options displays all the groups too. This seems to be an bug with buddypress.
@danbp Thank you for the tutorial. My group tabs worked perfectly until the last update of BuddyPress. Now the first time the page is loaded the tab displayed is correct. But If I switch tabs then all my tabs show all the groups. I am at a loss. Any ideas?

Tell me how to set your logo (picture) in BuddyPress letters?

Hi there,
So I help my mom out with her blog (embracing spirituality.com). We’ve just re-installed BuddyPress and I’ve tested it out, but activation emails never get sent. Why is this? I have researched this before deciding to post and I noticed two things:
1) This is an extremely common issue. It’s almost apart of the BuddyPress package.
2) To fix it requires coding knowledge
I know absolutely nothing about coding. I tried to hire someone at codeable to help me fix this issue, but he charged me $500 which is too expensive for me.
Can anyone help me fix this issue please? I’m willing to pay someone!
Thank you for your time,
Kay
The limitations of BuddyPress are really the limitations of WordPRess and your host. If you think WordPress.com is run on WordPress you can see that scaling is possible, but that you’d probably need to do extensive customisations. File upload size is a server setting.
Dear Sir/Madam, i wanted to know how many users can be accomodated and is there any limitations to upload size of a video file? My total user estimation is 50 million, wont that be a problem in future? If there would be an storage problem, which plugins could we use?
First of all, I got the filename wrong, it’s home.php you need to edit.
This should be about the easiest bit of php you can get. But you will need to get ftp access to your site then create a buddypress/members/single directory in your themes/childtheme directory. Then take a copy of the source home.php file.
Home.php creates the basic content for the profile page and if you open it up you will see a section as follows:
<?php if ( ! bp_nouveau_is_object_nav_in_sidebar() ) : ?>
<?php bp_get_template_part( 'members/single/parts/item-nav' ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
This is what calls the navigation, at the moment it’s the second item being loaded, you want it to be the first, so you just need to move it as follows:
?>
<?php if ( ! bp_nouveau_is_object_nav_in_sidebar() ) : ?>
<?php bp_get_template_part( 'members/single/parts/item-nav' ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php bp_nouveau_member_hook( 'before', 'home_content' ); ?>
<div id="item-header" role="complementary" data-bp-item-id="<?php echo esc_attr( bp_displayed_user_id() ); ?>" data-bp-item-component="members" class="users-header single-headers">
<?php bp_nouveau_member_header_template_part(); ?>
</div><!-- #item-header -->
<div class="bp-wrap">
<div id="item-body" class="item-body">
<?php bp_nouveau_member_template_part(); ?>
</div><!-- #item-body -->
</div><!-- // .bp-wrap -->
<?php bp_nouveau_member_hook( 'after', 'home_content' ); ?>
Once you’ve done that use ftp to copy your updated file to themes/child-theme/buddypress/members/single/home.php and test. that should do it.
I had the same problem. I disabled WP User Avatar which solved the problem.
This plugin is apparently not compatiple with BuddyPress. The FAQ for the plugin says:
Will WP User Avatar work with BuddyPress?
No, BuddyPress has its own custom avatar functions and WP User Avatar will override only some of them. It’s best to use BuddyPress without WP User Avatar.
You should be able to do that by overloading plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-nouveau/buddypress/members/single/profile.php, you can place your modified copy in themes/child-theme/buddypress/members/single/profile.php.
I’m using 5.1.1 in WordPress and latest Buddypress version (Nouveau template). It is currently in a subdomain (sandbox) for now. I’m also using a child theme to make adjustments. I would like to move the navigation on all pages to ABOVE the the cover image/avatar. Or just move the coverimage/avatar to below the navigation. Is this an easy adjustment?

Side note – Buddypress is impressive.
Hi there, WordPress and BuddyPress are predominately PHP applications. PHP requires a page load in order to view new content and this is what you are seeing – you click a menu item a new page loads and it starts from the top of the page again. There are tricks to bring the page focus back to where you were and BP uses these where appropriate, another trick is to use Javescript to fetch now content and again BP uses this, in the activity page for example. But when you are clicking a main link, an entire now page is going to be loaded to there’s not a reference of where you were in order to set the new page focus. So in short, it’s the way WordPress and BuddyPress have been written, yu’d need to do a significant rewrite to change it.
Hello @Venutius,
I’ve checked Buddypress options it shows Buddypress Legacy template.
Please find below the snap shot.

Hello! In the theme that I have installed I can only use Legacy Buddypress, is there any code where I can modify it? or css?
Thank you very much for the response!
Deactivate all other plugins apart from BuddyPress and see if it works.
You can see which BP Theme you are using by going to Settings>>BuddyPress>>Options
Have you looked at the BP Nouveau theme (Settings>>BuddyPress>>Options ) this allows you to set up vertical menus in Customizer.
Found a solution:
