We used to have testbp.org which last a few years until spam and DOS attacks forced us to take it offline.
Your best best is probably looking through https://wordpress.tv/tag/buddypress/ for recent WordCamp videos, and see if you can find one.
I can probably disable Buddypress on muy dev site and try to register to see what happens. I will do that today and let you know @djpaul
Many thanks to both of you for your replies!
I don’t think we’ve consciously changed this behaviour (if this indeed happens as you say) in the last couple of years. It’s possible that something in WordPress changed the behviour with however BuddyPress adds sites internally.
I think I just about recall some conversation from four or five years ago about this, but I’m struggling to remember what it was about precisely, or even where to look. If I were to start investigating this, I’d set up an otherwise identical multisite (without BuddyPress) and add users via the wp-admin, and see if those users becomes subscribers or not. etc.
Page Builders are not be compatible with BuddyPress (at least, I don’t know of any support).
You would need to manually edit the template files. If you know basic CSS/HTML/PHP, I can give you some instructions and link to some docs.
The original reporter has submitted a bug report https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7436
The language used in that report is much more constructive than that of this forum thread, so I’m going to close this.
Hello. but how do I let my users view the photos you have uploaded to their profile BuddyPress completely disabling gravatar? thank you for support
Deactivating components of buddyPress doesen’t help.

Hi!
For anyone having the
Cannot read property ‘add’ of undefined bp-plupload.min.js issue.
There is a conflict between BuddyPress’ upload js and the lodash.js library. Probably because it’s using the “_” object as underscore.js.
Thanks for the response, djsteveb.
Every thing is using my own dedicated server. Therefore, I have access to all functions.
With buddypress deactivated all works and its the same theme that is working on the old site. Also, I do not think it could be a theme issue since that I can resend the activation email from the backend but it is still not coming. Also, I see not error message in my log unless that I am missing the message, which I am going back to test again.
I suggestion that I have in mind could be a compatible issue between Buddypress 2.7.4
and WordPress 4.7.2 but since buddypress was set-up on the old site when wordpress was version 3 and when through the many upgrades it still works on that old site.
I am just having thoughts since I cannot see the issue and from the searches this issue goes back a long time and there seems to be no one fix.
I have tried with and without Easy WP SMTP.
Thanks
Fred

Hello,
A new problem occurred on my website when trying to access the My Replies section in the forum page of Buddypress.
The page stays white and the php logs shows
PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 32 bytes) in /home/digitalpainting/html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4065, referer: http://digitalpainting.school/members/testjean30/forums/
I think this started to happen when my forum reached a certain number of threads and replies.
Forum stats : 40 forums, 3405 topics, 40841 replies.
My PHP is 5.6.26 and the memory limit is 256G.
Any help would he appreciated.
Thanks,

Hello, I don want to invade your thread but open my own days ago and its not getting viewed so no replied.
I have searched for ever and is still searching for a solution and not getting answers.
I setup this new site: WordPress 4.7.2 and running MesoColumn theme. The Buddypress version is Version 2.7.4.
In my backend I see the registration Pending and I re-sending the activation sever times while experimenting with other things and my server but to no success. And its not my server because I do have another site working with the same Buddypress version. The only difference the working site has been online since 2014.
Thanks
Fred
The
hi shane i really appreciate your reply such a relief to hear from someone who knows buddypress cold its a very scary thing messing with the database on a site that is so important
…quick update i actually got the pending friend requests on my own account to display but still is extremely slow ….other than moving the site to a totally new server does deleting is_confirmed field value = 0 seem like a good idea to try in your opinion to speed it up ?
this is not a dedicated server but is supposed to handle spikes its not on a cheap hosting plan its supposed to scale on demand…..really managed wordpress hosting
in general is this friends table something that is going to get out of control if you have 50,000 members?
…i already every couple months trim the activity table … buddypress changed over the years i’m not sure i need to do it anymore honestly but was absolutely necessary like 3-4 years ago do you have people deleting activity table on larger sites still?
thanks for your help on my db situation and how to keep it running
Hi,
it is not available for header cover image, because it is theme dependant (in most of cases).
More about custom size in the documentation
BuddyPress Cover Images
So in short, there is no simple way to isolate the registration process such that the “BuddyPress users” are added to different tables than the regular WP users right?
Hi,
BuddyPress doesn’t handle users. It use WP’s user_table and user_meta and his own meta tables (bp_activity_meta or bp_notifications_meta).
In BP settings, you have an option to sync BP to WP profile’s. And that’s all.
If you have another plugin who’s is synced with WordPress profiles, guess it will do the same with BP. But, adding a custom member table only for BP usage within WP registration process isn’t a good idea as you probably will have to rewrite a lot of code.
Members are the heart of BP, but in the sense of “how to show members and let them work together”, not in the way to include/register them to the site.
BP doesn’t never affect the first step when accessing the WP user registering. This step belongs clearly to WP ONLY. Adding member and meta tables doesn’nt modify that.
Oops! Forgot to mention this
WordPress version – 4.7.2
BuddyPress version – 2.7.4

There’s quite a few privacy plugins for BuddyPress, just search the WordPress Plugins directory for BuddyPress and Privacy
