It took me awhile to think about what might be causing the issue and I just remembered the problem.
It’s a theme conflict with BuddyPress.
BuddyPress adds the CSS class hidden to a group in the group loop. Some themes might already have a .hidden class declared, so hidden groups are not shown because of this.
Can you add the following CSS snippet to your CSS?
#buddypress .bp-single-group.hidden {display:block;}
I believe this should fix your problem.

I’ve submitted an enhancement Trac here: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7489#ticket.
In the meantime, I’ve implemented the following hack to allow non-members to post on a group’s activity stream:
In /plugins/buddypress/bp-groups/bp-groups-functions.php, comment out lines 1215 and 1216.
Original:
if ( !bp_current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' ) && !groups_is_user_member( $user_id, $group_id ) )
return false;
Hacked:
//if ( !bp_current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' ) && !groups_is_user_member( $user_id, $group_id ) )
//return false;
This removes the check for “Is this an admin or a group member?”, allowing anyone to post.
Do you have the friends component active?
It could be caused by the at-mentions suggestions code.
Try disabling it by adding the following to your theme’s functions.php or bp-custom.php file:
remove_action( 'bp_activity_mentions_prime_results', 'bp_friends_prime_mentions_results' );
How did you install bbPress?
It sounds like you activated the “Group Forums (Legacy)” component in BuddyPress. You should try disabling that.
You need to use a custom language file.

Hello, I am having the same problem. I have installed buddypress plugin and a bunch of other plugins.
Now, I am unable to save anything in the WP editor in the frontend in the visual mode. I have to switch to the text mode and then save the changes.
Since the site is live, I am not sure the correct procedure to remove and reinstall. I don’t want to lose user data.
Any suggestions how I can resolve this?
WP ver. 4.73
BP ver. 2.82
metro magazine pro theme
I see this error when trying to view my group.
Warning: Creating default object from empty value in /home/wp_5cnhby/ntcep.org/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-groups/classes/class-bp-groups-member.php on line 1170

Using bp_parse_args() to filter BuddyPress template loops
bp_before_has_members_parse_args is the filter hook you’ll need. meta_key and meta_value will need to be used.
Hope this helps!
I disabled All Activity from buddypress and everythning changed back to normal
You probably just need to copy the content of your old child theme buddypress directory into your new childtheme directory.
Please read the forum before asking… A similar question came up yesterday with an answer to
This modification not work… I don’t understand why
customizing profile-header
Copy the whole content of that example file into bp-custom.php.
You can also transform it into a mu-plugin by just adding it some header information.
Once done, you can test the tabs and try to understand how they work. And then apply your own preference.
OK – I’ve just found this:
add_action('bp_core_activated_user', 'kleo_add_member_activity');
function kleo_add_member_activity($user_id)
{
add_user_meta( $user_id, 'last_activity', date("Y-m-d H:i:s"));
}
on https://seventhqueen.com/blog/buddypress/show-users-members-directory-right-account-activation.html
So will just have to import user data again (using https://codection.com/import-users-csv-meta/) and modify the code to add that activity record.
@possip,
what i wanted to say was that if you use the allow header image option, BP will use a different header template. When you don’t use this option, BP will use member-header.php
The’re two component who use header’s: members and groups.
To handle groups header, it is exactly the same logic as for the members header.
In the group directory (bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/groups), you have 2 files named group-header.php and cover-image-header.php where you can handle goup header customization.
Try this plugin:
https://github.com/r-a-y/buddypress-usernames-only
For the “why”, perhaps it is because “chat” and “forum” have their own logic. Both aren’t part of BuddyPress.
Note also that there is no obligation to use all the things appearing on the templates. If you don’t want them, symply remove or hide them.
For example, the names who appear on profile header are effectively different. Why would you need to use both, that’s nonsense! I guess this is only in so you can choose which one is better for your project. And it is so because (probably) it is better and easier to choose between something you see thant between something theoretical exposed or detailed in code comments…
Note that my remark concern only the appearence, not the internal fonctionality of username vs.displayname or nicename.
Environment:
PHP 7.0.3
Apache webserver
MySQL v5.5.49
WordPress v4.7.3
BuddyPress v2.8.2
Theme: Emmet Lite v1.5.0
Other plugin: none
Hi,
I have installed BuddyPress on a fresh local install and used the Emmet Lite theme.
My problem is that when I create a user, login to the site using a completely different browser, with the cache purged and browsing history removed on start, and go to the user profile, I do not have the option to change the profile visibility. The dropdown for the Name is not showing at all.
Please see settings-profile-visibility on the BuddyPress codex.
When you view the image you will see “Base -> Name” and “Visibility -> Everyone” in a dropdown. In my install the “Visibility -> Name” is not a dropdown and not selectable attall.
Thanks in advance for helping me figure this one out.
In that case there’s a few options. You could try to find a plugin. If a plugin isn’t available you could suggest the feature. Alternatively you could hire a developer.
Hope this helps!
General knowledge about Groups
Groups
Your question is really too vague (a way to reorganize the groups). Groupss can already be filtered by Last Active (default), Most Members, Newly Created, or Alphabetical.
If not enough, you need to give more details about what you want.
You can filter using bp_after_has_members_parse_args. Take a look here for examples:
