Buddypress: v2.6.9 ?
the current version is 12.2.0
Hi,
My WP is in version: 6.4.3
Buddypress: 2.6.9
My BP cannot genere the group,member page,
I need make display the Membership page,
Please tell me how to do!
Thank you very much!
….the latest version of BP (v12.2.0) was released yesterday. You can give it a try and test it again. At my end, I wasn’t able to replicate the issue you were facing with the “load more” feature – it seems to be working fine. However, I suggest that you try deactivating all custom codes related to BP and other BP plugins on your staging site, as they may contain outdated code that could be causing the issue.
I hate to be the bringer of bad news ….. I did as you suggested, deactivated every plugin associated with Buddypress then reactivated one by one, testing for issue each time. The culprit has turned out to be Wpcom Designs – Buddypress Activity Filter.
Hi @awol
Sorry to read about this issue. Have you checked deactivating all plugins but BuddyPress, activating a default WP Theme like Twenty Twenty-Four, and removing any custom code like wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php or wp-content/mu-plugins/*.php ?
Hi Varun,
I have now reinstalled the entire BuddyPress with all Plugins. Now I have only Buddypress 12.2 without BP Classic.
But I have a problem with restricted content. I want to restrict access to community directories only for users who have purchased in WooCommerce a specific membership, and exclude all, which have only registered on the Buddy-Press registration form.
I am working with WooCommerce Membership and added in the Dashboard > WooCommerce > Memberships > Membership Plan under the option “BuddyPress Directories” the directories for the community and aktivities. But it doesn’t work and doesn’t restrict the access to the content when anybody who has no assigned membership wants to open the community member list or activity-list.
When I assign a restricted content to different membership types it has not impact on the access to BuddyPress community and activity directories. BuddyPress only reacts on the difference of “logged in” or “not logged in”.

Hi @imath,
I don’t know if my issue is related to this release, as I haven’t been checking for a couple of weeks, but none of the Buddypress pages are loading – all I get is “Loading the xxx updates. Please wait.” – this is for Activity, Group Activity, Groups, Profile Activity, Notifications, Friends, Groups etc etc. No errors in server logs or debug log. However, if I change from Nouveau to Legacy they are fine, so obviously something is amiss with Nouveau, rather than it being a plugin or WP theme – can you suggest where I need to look to fix this? I have already tried deactivating and reactivating, turning off plugins and changing themes.I have also reuploaded the bp-nouveau folder/files from a new download of the plugin but still the same. I really need some help as my site is unusable and switching to legacy loses many of my style and functional customisations.
Hi @gomle
Thanks a lot for your feedback. About Notifications, I believe using the Notification Web API can improve your “pulling the user to the site” need.
Hi @oumz99
I agree we should look into import/export. To comply with GDPR, users can export the data they created on the site from their profile settings. But a more global tool would be great to easily develop BuddyPress themes or move community generated content to another site.
See & contribute to it there: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1058
Hi @bclaim
So do I! I totally agree with you. We need to rethink the Private Messages component/feature with the goal:
1. to make it a chat like system for member(s) to member(s) discussions as well as between group members discussions. What are channels in Slack could be groups in BuddyPress Private Messages. I’m looking carefully to the Block Editor live collaboration system as it may help us to reach this goal.
2. to move the Community wide notice feature outside of it.
@priyam1234
It should be the case. So it’s not an evolution to me but more a bug. I’ll look into it.
@everyone:
I’ll make sure to talk about it with other members of the BP Core Developers team during our next development meeting.
Here’s my 2 main wishes for 14.0.0:
– Review our different registration flows and allow Administrators to easily disable these BuddyPress registration flows.
– Build new BP Blocks along with a new BP Blocks only Theme to start using the WP Site Editor to customize our community area.
Dear Team,
I trust this message finds you well. I am encountering a compatibility issue between BuddyPress and my website, particularly on pages built using Divi (Ally theme). While other sections of the website function smoothly, the BuddyPress-integrated pages are experiencing disruptions, notably at the URL: https://kiero.tempurl.host/activity/.
Here are the relevant details:
WordPress Version: 6.4.2
BuddyPress Version: 12.2.0
Paid Memberships Pro – bbPress Add On Version: 1.7.4
RegistrationMagic Version: 5.2.5.9
WooCommerce Version: 8.5.2
Divi – Ally Child ThemeVersion: 1.5
I’ve tried troubleshooting independently, but the issue persists. It’s imperative to resolve this promptly to ensure seamless user interactions and community features.
Your expertise in addressing this specific compatibility issue between BuddyPress and Divi (Ally theme) would be greatly appreciated. Any guidance, updates, or troubleshooting steps you can provide are invaluable.
Thank you sincerely for your swift attention and assistance.
Best regards,

Aloha honored Buddypress Forum,
I have been trying for some time to implement a function in Buddypress to enable my users to create channels as well as normal groups.
In the channels only administrators and moderators should be able to publish posts but for example the chat should remain available for the users. The idea is that users can follow a channel that shares specific information but should not be hidden or closed.
Unfortunately, all attempts to write a custom plugin as an extension have so far only triggered a fatal error.
Maybe you have a solution for me.
Best regards

Hello
I have buddypress version 12.2.0 and WP version 6.4.3
I noticed the problem couple of days ago. It is taking several seconds, probably like 30 seconds to show member activity on their profile page. So it is delayed display.
Thanks for the response! I installed classic but no change.
No change when I de-activate the ‘Buddy Press for Learndash’ by BuddyBoss plugin. (https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-learndash/)
I checked with LearnDash and this is still the plugin they advise to use – even though it hasn’t been updated in 4 years. We may just abandon the functionality – it doesn’t offer much value to us if it’s not connected to the online course. I suspect the BuddyBoss plugin is the issue.
Will this help customise the whole look of the page? A plugin, Youzify, I believe may already allow to edit fields.
I’d like to customise all pages, register, change password, complete registration, etc.
It’s odd that Buddypress doesn’t allow that. How do people who use this plugin do it exactly? I’ve heard of people using the provided shortcodes, for people who use Ultimate Member.
What can someone using Buddypress do?
Hello,
I am new to BuddyPress and I am trying to handle a very similar situation: a “niche community” in which parents of caregivers would create profiles of their children to share with teachers or other specialist staff. May I ask you if you were able to use BuddyPress successfully for your project?
My first approach was Moodle, i.e. a teaching platform. However, for the purposes of my project, the roles are “reversed”: parents would become “teachers”, and teachers would become “learners”. I was quite successful in setting this up in Moodle, but the project did not go live, because users will be facing Moodle with its sheer complexity and I would prefer to have a simpler solution that any end user can handle easily.
So, to conclude, I would be happy if you could share your experience with me in using BuddyPress for your project. Thanks in advance for your feedback!
Greeting from Germany,
Armin
Hi Varun,
I cannot protect them using a custom post-type – I have found the new option “BuddyPress Directories” inside the dropdown menu inside the restriction section. Exactly there were the BuddyPress linked to the very first pages which have been removed from the Dashboard > Pages when I updated to BuddyPress 12 and which did not return when I installed BP Classic. I have no access to this very first pages but they seem to be still somewhere in the system.
What would happen, if I deinstall the Buddypress 12 and BP Classic and install BP 12 again without BP Classic and start from scratch? What would happen to the other BuddyPress plugins which I have already configured. Would I have to delete and install them too? Would the Plugins crash down?
As I am still developing the Buddypress I don’t have any activities of members, only a lot of configurations in different third party Buddypress plugins. Would I have to delete them too?
Best wishes

@yatesa01 If this is a fresh installation, you can choose to keep the BuddyPress Classic plugin deactivated. This plugin is designed to provide support for legacy versions of the BP plugin that have not been updated or if you have custom development that uses deprecated codes.
There seems to be a bug in the expected behaviour of the sorting of friendship lists and friendship request lists. When a user visits their friendship list or request list, even though the drop down sort menu shows that it is set to “alphabetical” the actual sorting is “last active.”
To switch it to “Alphabetical” the user must first change it to “last active” before changing it back to “alphabetical.” But this is only a temporary fix–after a reload of the page, it goes back to sorting to “last active” regardless of what the drop down menu says it is doing.
I don’t know if this has been an issue for a while, or if I’m just noticing it. I have BuddyPress 12.2.0 installed on WordPress 6.4.2, along with the BuddyPress Classic plugin activated. I am using BuddyPress Nouveau with the Astra theme.
Today while trying to solve a different issue, I used the BuddyPress tools, “Repair total members count.” and “Repair member “last activity” data” which then reset everyone last activity status to “Not Recently Active.” I thought everything was fine, but then within an hour or two we started getting reports from our members about them not being able to see their friends list or find friendship requests.
As I said, it is possible that this has been the case for a while, but since it was a newer install, everyone who was requesting or accepting friendship connections was by definition recently active. Now that their last active status has been reset, though, it has become quite apparent and is causing a great deal of confusion as people try to find their friends or can’t figure out why they aren’t seeing their friendship requests.
Hello,
My wish is for BuddyPress to have a chat like private messaging system with only one thread allowed between users. Or maybe have a feature where we can enable a periodical delete of older messages so threads don’t get really large and slow.
Is there a way to set the activity feed page to show only up to so many word and thumbnais? right now everything i post is shown 100%, the stream is messy.
TIA,
Latest version of wordpress and buddypress, using generatepress as a theme.
I have tried using a different plugin with Buddy Press before, Paid Member Subscriptions (by Cozmoslabs), and it did not integrate well. In fact, the problems that were caused by trying to integrate PMS and BuddyPress and MailPoet are the reason why I need to start my site over, redesigned, and I’m looking for a simple solution. The paid membership plugins do not allow me to collect snail mail addresses automatically upon registration (and we send things out by regular mail, so that’s important), and they also don’t really integrate into the whole newsletter thing (we have a newsletter that goes out monthly to paid members only)… And all of that doesn’t really integrate into the Member Galleries of BuddyPress. BuddyPress doesn’t make it easy to export data, either. So…
I think I may need to go with Ultimate Member, which integrates with my mail system and now has photo galleries available for individual members (so, something similar to BuddyPress’s galleries), much as I love the idea of BuddyPress.
I guess I am gun-shy, even though maybe integration with Paid Membership Pro could be better; the whole experience of trying to make BP and other plugins work together has been very trying. And we have limited money to spend on solutions.
@erisf it’s more like template driven; you can add additional fields to the registration field
Signup Fields
You can find the ref for template override here https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/template-hierarchy/
Will suggest checking for BuddyPress themes to avoid excessive work for template override and custom CSS
@giszech, you can protect them using a custom post-type approach instead of pages.
inside the restriction section, you will find a new option inside the dropdown
like Post, Pages, BuddyPress Directories
I’m thinking about creating a BuddyPress plugin and was wondering if the documentation in the Codex is up to date?
