I the next release or so the BuddyPress team are planning to launch a new bp theme – nouveau –

Hi @mbv-

The data should be slashed on the way into the database. When you call the activity content using bp_get_activity_content_body(), many filters are applied, including stripslashes_deep here: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.9.3/src/bp-activity/bp-activity-filters.php#L82

If you’re displaying activity using an activity loop (like BuddyPress does in its default theme parts), then the results are as expected. If you’re accessing the data some other way, you’re going to need to apply the needed filters to it. Check out the link above to see all the filters that applied to bp_get_activity_content_body.

Hi @jungdchinese-

In the short term, you can copy the .pot file out of the 2.9.2 release and replace the bad one in the 2.9.3 file. You can download the 2.9.2. .pot here: https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/export/1817522/buddypress/tags/2.9.2/buddypress.pot

Hi @louie171,

You are correct that group permissions are mostly independent of WP roles. The exception is that WP “administrators” can basically do everything that a group admin can do, but in any group. Site admins are always allowed to do things that are protected by this permissions check: bp_current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' ). This is not limited to the groups component, though.

I’m not sure exactly how you’d accomplish what you’re wishing to do. You could filter the bp_current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' ) check to return true in the groups component for a certain role or set of users, and then remove admin tabs that you don’t want them to have access to, using code like this: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/navigation-api/#remove-subnav-tabs-from-group-settings

You’ll have to be careful to make sure you’re not allowing those users to do things you don’t want them to do.

Still not working, only when sending from BuddyPress to Hotmail, it DO works when sending from WordPress:

1) Contacted Microsoft support, IP not blocked and everything is correct.
2) Changed activation e-amil template: removed activation related words. I have sent emails with “test” subject and body and only are delivered to gmail, yahoo, etc NOT Hotmail accounts
3) Sent from another IP, same issue.
4) Changed “from” using the “bp_email” action.
5) Done all the steps above again from a clean WP installation with only BuddyPress activated.

It must be a BuddyPress issue. There are a few topics related, something is happening when sending to Outlook.com and no one seems to support.

What does the error log look like with only BuddyPress active and with the 2017 theme?

@mastershas

It might be difficult to get the follow button on the bottom of each blog post because it seems like the follow button on the profile page is only visible for logged in members

But, the second part: making it so that when someone clicks “view all posts by author”, it goes to their buddypress members page not the author page would be really crucial because now I realized that many of the members don’t have an author page because they are not registered as a author on the wordpress backend.

@richardparry do you have BuddyPress and WooCommerce active at the same primary domain or at different subsites?
Members page is not restricted to roles unless you have some custom codes. I have tested with Astra and latest WooCommerce and WooCommerce Vendor plugin, all seems working fine for both vendor admin and vendor manager role.

It might be a site-specific issue, I will suggest checking with your developer.

There’s a couple of mass messaging plugins for BuddyPress, neither have this as an option but you could see if the developers would add this as an option?

I’ve just looked at a group on one of my sites and pagination of group members works. So it’s something up with your install. Have you paired back the install to just BuddyPress and a default theme?

Hi @mastershas

Thanks so much for this and for your help with the other query I had! I was able to successfully update the member profile page. For example here

and add the profile box at the end of the post page like here

How can I add the follow button in this profile box? I tried to add this code snippet, but I got an error:

<div class="follow_button">
		<div class="follow_icon">
		 			<?php
          $args = array('leader_id' => bp_displayed_user_id(), 'follower_id' => bp_loggedin_user_id(),);
          echo bp_follow_get_add_follow_button($args);
          ?>
		</div>
	</div><div class="clear_follow"></div>

Also, how can I make it so that when someone clicks “view all posts by author”, it goes to their buddypress members page not the author page

If you want a traditional forum, you want to use bbPress not BuddyPress. See https://bbpress.org.

Keep in mind that BuddyPress is developed and supported by an all-volunteer community.

If you are in need of more specialized help or more immediate help than this forum can provide, I’d recommend that you develop a business relationship with a local WP developer. Any WP developer who understand the filters/actions approach of WordPress will be able to develop for BP.

Hi, the settings are at wp-admin > BuddyPress > Options:

See this image: https://imgur.com/ySqPNZw

If you’re not seeing it, then someone could have set a filter that prevents cover options. (Check for custom code or a plugin.) Or, you could be using a really old version of BP, I guess.

To clarify, you can visit the registration page and fill out the form, but submitting your registration results in no request being generated and you are redirected to your home page?

Can you check your BP setup at wp-admin > Settings > BuddyPress > Pages and verify that there are pages assigned to each of the BP components?

When WP_DEBUG is set to true, you’re not seeing any errors or notices in your debug.log?

yah that’s not working. Basically, I know it can be done, somehow. If I install BP on a secondary blog when it’s FIRST installed, then the feed shows up on the secondary blog. Yet when I move it over after the fact, the feed doesn’t show. This is the issue. I want to move it over to a secondary blog that I can dedicate to buddypress and leave the main site as something else. Or, alternatively, have a secondary buddypress installation on the secondary blog. Help?

Each site has separate tables in the database.

Hi @ottiya
I am sorry to hear the same. I saw the test site and just wanted to recheck a few questions.
1. In the directory path buddypress > members > single > cover cover-image-header.php, did you created cover-imgae-header.php in the cover directory or under single directory. It should be under single directory.
2. I think you have not enabled allowing user to upload cover image. Could you please check and confirm ?
If the same is not enabled you can edit member-header.php under buddypress > members > single.

It sounds more like a potential plugin conflict or PHP error. When you are setting the page in BuddyPress’ setting page and hitting save, I am assuming that your page is reloading without error but the page is not set once you hit save correct?

You could try checking WP_Debug to see if there are any errors being generated or by checking your servers error logs as well.

Actually, I believe this is in the correct space.

Currently, my understanding is in BuddyPress we are making an association between the forum that you add during the setup screen and then retrieving the topics of the associated forum.

Which means this is, in fact, a BuddyPress issue. However, I don’t know how much of an issue this is because while subforums are possible within bbPress, the implementation in BuddyPress has no way to add Subforums (or to even create a forum as a category for that matter). This simply means the use case would only be those who have an administrator level and can create those from the backend.
