BuddyPress.org

You mention forums specifically.

If that is the case, you should use bbPress conditional functions.

See this page for more details:

bbPress Conditional Tags

If you have more questions, post on the bbPress forums as BuddyPress is not bbPress:

– BuddyPress = community
– bbPress = forums

add_theme_support( 'buddypress' ) is for custom BuddyPress themes not relying on theme compatiblity.

I would remove that line from your theme’s functions.php and then load a BuddyPress page to see if the default BP styles show up as expected.

Your developer would need to write an import script to parse your old database tables to match the BuddyPress DB schema.

No way around it, unless you manually create each user and fill in each user’s data one-at-a-time. This would be painful if your existing site is quite large.

You shouldn’t rely on PHP conditionals for CSS targeting.

Use your browser’s developer console and check the various body CSS classes and then target the ones you want to use in your CSS stylesheet.

Why not use something like?

body.forums .YOUR-SELECTOR {color:red !important;}

If you must use PHP conditionals, use the ones that BuddyPress provides:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.9.1/src/bp-core/bp-core-template.php#L2034

View the list of functions in that file for all the ones you can use.

How are you trying to delete the buddypress folder?

You can find all of the templates in a buddypress folder here: bp-templates/bp-legacy.

Step 1. Copy the buddypress folder to your theme. You should then have something that looks like this: wp-content/themes/your-theme/buddypress
Step 2. Edit the files inside the buddypress folder.

Which template are you referring to in 1.?

Check out the Template Hierarchy article. The file you’d need to copy and then modify is buddypress/members/members-loop.php.

can both code snippets be placed either in functions.php or bp-custom.php?

2 can but 1 isn’t a code snippet (you’re copying and then modifying a file).

Hello,

I have the same problem as you. Here is my message:

Yes, fortunately BP does provide a one-line solution!

add_filter( 'bp_core_enable_root_profiles', '__return_true' );

You can edit the layout of the registration page. buddypress/members/index-register.php is the template you’ll need to edit. See the Template Hierarchy article for more information.

I have the same problem with the registration page. It’s unusable … an absolutely embarrassment if you look at screen capture of the desktop layout:

and the tablet layout:

I am running on Divi theme, and there is no way that I can use Divi theme to edit the layout of the registration page because it’s done at the backend of the BuddyPress plugin.

Is there a plugin out there that can resolve this ?

Regards.

Hi. I made a minor change in the code @danbp suggests (basically the $args[‘subnav_slug’] and now I believe it works as expected.
So I guess it’s not a BuddyPress bug.

Please, try the following

function bpex_change_profile_settings_default_tab() {

	if( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) ) :

	$access        = bp_core_can_edit_settings();
	$slug          = bp_get_settings_slug();

	$args = array(
		'parent_slug'     => $slug,
		'subnav_slug'	  => 'notifications',
		'screen_function' => 'bp_settings_screen_notification',
		'user_has_access' => $access
		);
 
	bp_core_new_nav_default( $args );

	endif;

}
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'bpex_change_profile_settings_default_tab' );

function bpex_remove_general_item_on_usermenu() {
global $wp_admin_bar;

	if ( bp_use_wp_admin_bar() ) {
		$wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'my-account-settings-general' );
	}

}
add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'bpex_remove_general_item_on_usermenu' );

function bpex_remove_profile_settings_general_tab() {

	if( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) ) :	

		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'settings', 'general' );

	endif;

}
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'bpex_remove_profile_settings_general_tab' );

I am still facing this issue, even after giving all the permission & uploading an image with a small name.
Using
Buddypress 2.8.2
wordpress 4.7.5
Please provide a resolution to this, I want to have an upload avatar option in the register page.
I am using “Buddypress avatar upload ajax” plugin for this.

bbPress is the only real option for forums.

Depending on what features you need, this may suffice: BuddyPress Simple Events

You can also get it here: PhiloPress – BuddyPress Simple Events

The following code won’t cause the parse error:

<p><?php printf(
    __( 'Your account was activated successfully! You can now log in on the sidebar with the username and password you provided when you signed up.', 'your-theme-domain' ),
    wp_login_url( bp_get_root_domain() )
); ?></p>

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘else’ (T_ELSE) in /home/admin/public_html/wp-content/themes/Divi-Child/buddypress/members/activate.php on line 47

This is referring to an else statement on line 47 of activate.php. What do you have on line 47?
