This is similar to what I’ve been looking for, so far I’ve not found an easy way to do this. It’s not actually a BuddyPress issue, it’s bbPress that creates the Forum list. So this is a question for the bbPress support forum.

That’s great!

You might be interested in my website http://buddyuser.com it’s my attempt to help newbies get the most out of BuddyPress, It’s got lots of plugin reviews and how to guides, you might like to give it a look.

For points 1 and 2 you need to ask at the BuddyDev forums as they are not BP issues.

For point 3 you can edit BuddyPress emails in Dashboard>>Emails.

For point 4 there’s some plugins that will hide the admin bar for certain user types, I’ve not tried them but try searching the WordPress plugin repository one I saw that might do the trick is https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-admin-bar/

‘Friends’ is a relationship between registered WP users.
Not Groups & Users.

You can extend the Groups component to handle different concepts of Friends, but you’ll need coding skills. Use the Group Extension API.

Use the Group Extension API.

And then collect all group member ids and then purchases made by those ids.

It’s not difficult to do, but you will need coding skills and an understanding of BP groups and WooCommerce.

If you don’t have those skills, you can post a job here.

This being looked into on:

I would sugest No CAPTCHA reCAPTCHA plugin which works with BuddyPress registration. You’ll hit the root of the problem.

Hope this helps.

I see that BP 2.7.3 is due the day before PHP 7.1 GA. Perhaps a fix can be included in this release so there’s no lag between PHP 7.1 GA and BP working on PHP 7.1 – otherwise I assume we’ll be waiting for BP 2.7.4?

For profile fields you can enable a rich text editor with http://buddyuser.com/plugin-review-buddypress-xprofile-rich-text-field

Can you open a ticket on BuddyPress Trac? Please include as much detail about the problem as possible.

Do you know which plugin it was? That’s probably going to be important.

The first thing I would check is to see if the plugin made a template overload of some of the BP pages:

Theme Compatibility & Template Files

I’d be looking to see if they had changes the Members Loop

Here’s the best thing that works https://buddydev.com/buddypress/hiding-users-on-buddypress-based-site/
Like a charm

So I created a ticket too: [BuddyPress Trac] #7349:
It got closed with a Comment:

There are so many ways to fix this, that I’m not really sure how, when and
should we fix this.

Won’t fix??

So if you guys won’t fix this is there a work around? It’s confusing for members who are getting messages and then get a 404 messages. Some users are not web savvy enough to login so they are missing messages. Good web user design is helping them out…

I was functional at one time now not? And you don’t want to fix this? Please help me so that I can fix this.

#7357 duplicated an earlier created https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7349

So @tizianopitisci, I closed your ticket in favour of #7349.

Caching BuddyPress

Recommend caching plugin for BP

Performance does not boil down to one thing, in general for BuddyPress pages you can think of reducing the number of plugins, minifying script, Installing an object cache such as Xcache and maybe compressing your images with Gzip or similar.

You might also look into using WP Hosting Performance Check to see the actual load times for individual pages on your site.

I’ve not checked but could it be from BuddyPress Shortcodes?
