BuddyPress.org

The first thing you need to do is confirm it’s an issue with BP by deactivating your other plugins and see if it still happens. if it does, report it as an issue on BuddyPress Trac.

1. One way to achieve this would be to overload the BuddyPress register page and replace the current section that adds the username with code that populates this field from the username field.

2. Not sure about that one, I take it this is being added by a plugin? if it’s creating an xprofile field then by default it will show up in profile, unless set to not be shown by the user. There’s a couple of options I think, either add some code to force this to not be displayed or else overload the profile page and set it up to display the profile fields you want to display.

@grwebs Your register page seems working fine http://grhs88.glenrocknews.today/register/
If that’s still an issue, make sure you have mapped the pages correctly inside the WordPress Dashboard
Setting >> BuddyPress >> Pages

MY PREVIOUS POST IS MISSING SO I’M REPOSTING AND HOPING THIS ISN’T JUST LAG…

OK I found a more targeted way to fix this. Short answer, I added this code add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_content_body', 'stripslashes_deep' );

HOW I added it is kind of important, I think. I’m running a plugin called Code Snippets https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/

By creating a snippet with just the code above, it takes care of removing those backslashes from comments on activity before it is displayed on the front end. If you apply the fix with this plugin, you can also select “run on front end” in the snippet editor for efficiency/performance.

If you wanted to fix it in your child theme (I don’t know why you’d only want the fix to be theme dependent, but that’s up to you …) then I believe this code would go into your functions.php (untested):

add_action('plugins_loaded', 'jrevillini_buddypress_get_activty_content_body_stripslashes' );
function jrevillini_buddypress_get_activty_content_body_stripslashes () {
add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_content_body', 'stripslashes_deep' );
}

Now I know that stripslashes is already applied to bp_get_activity_content_body by buddypress itself because I found it listed in this document, line 00079: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2NrrKAXLm0JQ01GT1ZGQlVOMkE/view (so my code *seems* redundant)

The only thing I can assume at this point is that the code built into buddypress to attach the filter is running too early for all output possibilities at priority 5. By simply adding it into a code snippet which is running as a plugin at the default priority, it seems to do the job before output on the member activity endpoint.

It should be noted that even without my fix, the same activity post will appear fine at some endpoints and not others.
The ones that I found that already worked:
* within a discussion e.g. /members/NAME/activity/73/#acomment-74
* on /member/NAME *as a reply* but *not* as an activity post

What you need to do is get FTP access to your wp-content/plugins directory and manually delete the buddypress directory, for some reason the directory has not been deleted when it’s been uninstalled in the past.

@requincreative I do not think, some list like that is maintained 🙂
You can post inside https://buddypress.org/support/forum/plugin-forums/bp-jobs-board/ any interested developer will contact you.

Hi guys been hoping for tabbed content so very pleased. Have set all to tabs no columns but when click the Profile tab get a column and :

– ‘Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_nouveau_xprofile_hook() in /home/content/00/5400100/html/pomm4/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-nouveau/buddypress/members/single/profile.php on line 17’

What did I break? 🙂

Hey. https://buddypress.org/blog/ top article seems to be confused about whether it’s about b2 or b1. Titles says b2, all content and links seem to point to b1.

This is not a feature of BuddyPress, there must be something in your setup that is requiring this, in other words you must have specific code that is requiring this as far as I’m aware.

@axcelluloid You can filter inside BuddyPress Strings, it’s not inside BuddyPress codes
You can also search via Find in folder approach for BuddyPress plugin
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/buddypress/stable/en-gb/default

By Default, BuddyPress only need account activation via email to start using the site.
“Please upload your profile photo to start using this site.” must be coming from your theme or any 3rd party code.

@axcelluloid Please try to debug at your site using default WordPress theme and keeping BuddyPress plugin only at your site. Inside your site, it must be some custom code or 3rd party plugin which is adding those warnings.

@jgflores
As per my understanding

— BuddyPress does not save any data related to IP address inside cookies.
— All the profile fields which you have created for your users are kept inside your WordPress database only, not linked to any 3rd party application. If you are using Akismet plugin for spam protection for BuddyPress, they will check logged in member IP address to cross check with their spammer’s database log, again that’s not the BuddyPress thing.

Hello you all!

Since I am using BuddyPress, I have a couple of questions regarding the GDPR compliance:

– Is this plugin setting cookies with personal information from visitors (like IP-address)?
– Is this plugin collecting, storing and/or sending personal information from visitors (IP-address, etc.) locally and/or externally?

In case that you are storing/sending and/or processing visitors’ information:

– Are the IP addresses only stored anonymously, i.e. without the last octet?
– What are you doing with the stored information?
– Do you share the data with 3rd parties? If yes, have you concluded appropriate contracts with the subcontractors that commit the subcontractors equally to data protection?
– When will the user data stored by you (in particular cookies) be deleted?
– Do you offer opt-out options for users (if yes, how are they implemented)?
– Can you provide us with a Data Processing Agreement including technical and organisational protection measures as well as an overview of the subcontractual relationships for signature?

Thanks in advance for your replay!

Best regards
Jose

@cartessius it will be a combination of the plugins, using BuddyPress cusotmization to build up relation will need lots of customization, but MLM plugin like https://wordpress.org/plugins/affiliate-mlm-party-plan/

Binary MLM

will create a relation between the user and can display theme tree structure.

For BuddyPress, they will be an independent member with their social profile and you can easily display their parent or children user info at their profile easily via minor code edits.

For Assigning them rank, you can use any gamification plugin like mycred, badgeos and you can also automate these rank based on their activities.

@normancates You can make a suggestion for it as a feature request at following link https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/report

@jayell12 you can copy those files from BuddyPress template folder inside the child theme at the same path
https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/buddypress/trunk/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/

Profile header will be loaded using https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/buddypress/trunk/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/member-header.php file

@eforreal79 It will be media plugin specific customization. Almost all media plugin which is compatible with BuddyPress use activity meta to save media related info for particular activities.

@orero It will suggest using Gravity form user registration add-on, it will give you WordPress user meta and BuddyPress xprofile fields mapping option as well as gravity form fields.
https://www.gravityforms.com/add-ons/user-registration/, it will take care of all user and field validation as well.

As a free option, you can check https://wordpress.org/plugins/frontend-registration-contact-form-7/

@studial you can add a limit on group creation, like who can create a group. How many groups a member can join, or how many members can be part of a group. It can also be auto join to groups based on their member type during registration.
You can check for these plugins

https://wbcomdesigns.com/buddypress-private-community-pro-plugin/

BuddyPress Auto Group Join

@normancates, BuddyPress has an only primary field as Name, rest are user-defined.
With BuddyPress, you are also allowed to create additional First Name & Last Name fields, and it will need some custom codes like pasted by @krioteh.

You can try https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp2wp-full-sync/, hopefully, it will help.

@shieldfire that’s menu items, you can un-assign the menu from footer location, or create a different menu for it with your current pages. BuddyPress features will also be deactivated after deactivation.

That’s awesome.

Why is this not a standard part of Buddypress? (Rhetorical question)

IMO, any fields should be designated (or able to be designated) as linked to the WP profile information.

THis is a CONSTANT source of confusion for me and any users. Because some plugins use the WordPress profile info, and some the Buddypress info.

I get that they probably need to do that. But at least let us synchronise the data.

Including display name options…

Please, BP / WP developers, slam an interface on this and let us keep our data consistent.

Cheers,
Norm
