If you want to get to know the structure of the BP overload files, could I suggest you try installing https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-template-overloader/ this maps out all of the overload files, it’s pretty daunting the sheer number of files you can modify, but if you look for that one file you can view it’s contents.
Also the link I mentioned but forgot to include about overloading BP is here. https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/a-quick-look-at-1-7-theme-compatibility/
This page explains about template overloads, but really you are not looking to do that, just view the contents of wp-content/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/coer-image-header.
You are looking to display the cover based header info and this is the page that does that in BP. However one thing to note is that these functions will only work in a BP profile page since they are using displayed username to identify the cover info to publish. So I guess this depends on what page you are looking to publish this info on?
An alternative I looked at is to use the BuddyPress Profile Shortcodes plugin, but unfortunately this does not include a shortcode for the cover image, most of the other information you re after though, they can get.
Can you point me to a guide for noobs?
I dont know much of buddypress and its structure.
BUt would like it get to know.
Also check out the overload files, I believe buddypress/members/single/cover-image-header.php is the page that fires to create the cover image, so you could use that as a basis for some custom code I reckon.
Search the documentation for info relating to cover images. this page talks about the function that calls the cover image:
Using BuddyPress Cover Images inside the Member and Group Loops
NOTE: I posted this on March 27 then realized it was posted to the “Installing BuddyPress” forum. Please ignore this post and see the “How-to and Troubleshooting” forum.
Hello @dcavins
After several tests, the author of the theme recognizes that this comes from his code.
I do not understand the choices for updating buddypress.
It’s been several weeks since a bug was identified on the list of members of a group.
I understand that it is not a security breach but it poses a problem of navigation!

Hi Slava, thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately, it didn’t work. I did that using if current_user_can(‘subscriber’) inside the buddypress/members/index.html
BuddyPress doesn’t have built-in shortcodes at all.
You can google for “buddypress shortcodes” to find what you might need.
Found the solution in this post:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7704
Go to:
/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress-functions.php
Around line 807, Find:
// The template part can be overridden by the calling JS function.
if ( ! empty( $_POST['template'] ) && 'groups/single/members' === $_POST['template'] && 'group_members' === $object ) {
Change “group_members” to just “members”:
// The template part can be overridden by the calling JS function.
if ( ! empty( $_POST['template'] ) && 'groups/single/members' === $_POST['template'] && 'members' === $object ) {
Fixed.
There’s two plugins Mass Messaging for BuddyPress is one, they both work slightly differently so I’d recommend you look at both.
Hello,
thank you for the answer
Of course there will be plugins to perform this operation. It will be another plugin (on my community sites, I arrive at 40!, All essential to achieve features not made by buddypress).
One more plugin, it is an additional risk of having incompatibilities, slower site, an obsolete version after 2 years …
All forms are integrating rgpd. It seems logical that buddypress integrates rgpd, because of these private data.
It would be nice if there is at least one type of field that after the entry is never displayed again, especially for the check box with the link of the rules of use.

Hi
Im using KLEO child theme with buddypress.
After logged in when member clicks on logo of my website, it directs them to the members page like ‘www.mywebsite/member’
I want to change it to ‘mywebsite/home’
Many thanks for your help.
The members loop template is here:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\members-loop.php
I still think it’s the database that is dishing out the unique keys so it is what’s controlling the user id’s not WordPress itself. BuddyPress just uses the WordPress User Id.
Heres the link to the other users topic, he used the messages_message_content_before_save filter… but this doesn’t work for me.
remove_filter( 'messages_message_content_before_save', 'wp_filter_kses', 1);
send-private-message-in-html
(sry i can’t edit my own posts after a while..)
I found only one user who find his solution…he modified the core… that’s not what i want to do. And this also brings some security issues.
messages_new_messages not working with HTML content
i really have to find a solution for this.
There’s two immediate options – BP Better Registration includes avatar upload in the registration process and BuddyPress Force Profile Photo https://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-force-profile-photo/ sets the site so users cannot access it unless they have a profile photo set.
Thanks for your help. but it didn’t work, the screen prompt: ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS
I’m using the wordpress 4.9.4 and buddypress 2.9.3, don’t know what to do…o(╥﹏╥)o
@mcpeanut
Thanks, I did do a quick search at WordPress.org. But thought BuddyPress would have some already built within their own system.
Nothing inherent within BuddyPress?
Glad to see you again on here @mcpeanut. Do share your BuddyPress website and story behind it when it’s ready!
Have you tried disabling all other plugins except for BuddyPress?
There’s a few plugins that provide shortcodes, take a look at the BP Activity Shortcode and also Shortcodes for BuddyPress in wordpress.org.
I have searched for shortcode but can’t seem to find what I am looking for. Either it doesn’t exist, it is hard to find, or I am just an idiot.
I want to find a list of all the shortcode that can be used with BuddyPress.
I want to create a dashboard page that has
A list of members friends
Recent friend activity
Recent activity in groups I am in
Where is the shortcode?
(Also, I know there is a profile page that has all this in it… but humor me. I just want shortcode info. Does it exist and where).
