The first thing you need to do is confirm it’s an issue with BP by deactivating your other plugins and see if it still happens. if it does, report it as an issue on BuddyPress Trac.
1. One way to achieve this would be to overload the BuddyPress register page and replace the current section that adds the username with code that populates this field from the username field.
2. Not sure about that one, I take it this is being added by a plugin? if it’s creating an xprofile field then by default it will show up in profile, unless set to not be shown by the user. There’s a couple of options I think, either add some code to force this to not be displayed or else overload the profile page and set it up to display the profile fields you want to display.
@grwebs Your register page seems working fine http://grhs88.glenrocknews.today/register/
If that’s still an issue, make sure you have mapped the pages correctly inside the WordPress Dashboard
Setting >> BuddyPress >> Pages
Hi all,
I’m running WordPress 4.9.5, BuddyPress 2.9.4, with Agama Blue child theme.
I want to change some wording in my labels/tabs and I went through the steps described in Customizing labels, messages and URLs with no results. The main thing I’m trying to accomplish is change “Friends” to “Connections” in all labels, tabs, messages, notifications etc.
This is what I did:
1. I opened the POT file in wp-content/plugins/buddypress/buddypress.pot, made a copy of the file and renamed it to buddypress-en_US.po.
2. I edited the fields I wanted with PoEdit and saved it.
3. I generated a .mo file.
4. I uploaded both .po and .mo files to /wp-content/languages/plugins/
5. I used the WPT Custom Mo File plugin as described.
Nothing happens. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your time.
hi all,
i m not new to developmnet but new to buddypress, i m tired to find out what code is running behind this
do_action( ‘bp_signup_username_errors’ );
under register.php
i added google recaptcha v2 , validated somehow successfully in
function bp_core_validate_user_signup( $user_name, $user_email )
bg-member-functions.php
next i found this
// If there are errors with account details, set them for display.
if ( !empty( $account_details[‘errors’]->errors[‘user_name’] ) )
$bp->signup->errors[‘signup_username’] = $account_details[‘errors’]->errors[‘user_name’][0];
what is I need is to show google captcha failure message where i want , as like it is showing for username or other fields.
wordpress code is really hard to understand.
MY PREVIOUS POST IS MISSING SO I’M REPOSTING AND HOPING THIS ISN’T JUST LAG…
OK I found a more targeted way to fix this. Short answer, I added this code add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_content_body', 'stripslashes_deep' );
HOW I added it is kind of important, I think. I’m running a plugin called Code Snippets https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/
By creating a snippet with just the code above, it takes care of removing those backslashes from comments on activity before it is displayed on the front end. If you apply the fix with this plugin, you can also select “run on front end” in the snippet editor for efficiency/performance.
If you wanted to fix it in your child theme (I don’t know why you’d only want the fix to be theme dependent, but that’s up to you …) then I believe this code would go into your functions.php (untested):
add_action('plugins_loaded', 'jrevillini_buddypress_get_activty_content_body_stripslashes' );
function jrevillini_buddypress_get_activty_content_body_stripslashes () {
add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_content_body', 'stripslashes_deep' );
}
Now I know that stripslashes is already applied to bp_get_activity_content_body by buddypress itself because I found it listed in this document, line 00079: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2NrrKAXLm0JQ01GT1ZGQlVOMkE/view (so my code *seems* redundant)
The only thing I can assume at this point is that the code built into buddypress to attach the filter is running too early for all output possibilities at priority 5. By simply adding it into a code snippet which is running as a plugin at the default priority, it seems to do the job before output on the member activity endpoint.
It should be noted that even without my fix, the same activity post will appear fine at some endpoints and not others.
The ones that I found that already worked:
* within a discussion e.g. /members/NAME/activity/73/#acomment-74
* on /member/NAME *as a reply* but *not* as an activity post
What you need to do is get FTP access to your wp-content/plugins directory and manually delete the buddypress directory, for some reason the directory has not been deleted when it’s been uninstalled in the past.
When installing the buddypress plugin I keep getting this message:
Downloading installation package from https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/buddypress.2.9.4.zip…
Unpacking the package…
Installing the plugin…
Destination folder already exists. /home/christelijkpodium/christelijk-podium.nl/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/
Plugin installation failed.
Plugin not activated. A higher version of Buddypress is needed for this theme. Please update the plugin.
When I am trying to import demo data, I am getting this message:
There was an error in the import process. Try to do the import once again!
Buddypress: Destination folder already exists.
Buddypress: The plugin does not have a valid header.
Debug Data:”Activated plugin K elements,Activated plugin Revslider,Installed plugin Buddypress,Activated plugin Buddypress,Installed page: Home Community,Imported widgets,Import Clients complete”
Can somebody help me out here?
@requincreative I do not think, some list like that is maintained 🙂
You can post inside https://buddypress.org/support/forum/plugin-forums/bp-jobs-board/ any interested developer will contact you.
Does anyone know of a plugin that shows users woocommerce wishlists in a tab of buddypress?
I would want this because, I want users of my community to be able to purchase products for eachother if they desire. Kind of like a gift.
Please let me know.
Thanks.
Hi everyone. I’ve chosen ‘a homepage section’ as my post page, but when I create a Buddypress custom page for instance, the title at the top of the page says the name of my last post. Can someone please tell me how to prevent this, if possible. Thanks, ldellc
Thank you @vapvarun. I honestly don’t have the time to interview Upwork contractors. I figured that there would be some names around the BuddyPress support forum or a list of know experts.
Hi guys been hoping for tabbed content so very pleased. Have set all to tabs no columns but when click the Profile tab get a column and :
– ‘Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_nouveau_xprofile_hook() in /home/content/00/5400100/html/pomm4/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-nouveau/buddypress/members/single/profile.php on line 17’
What did I break? 🙂
Hey. https://buddypress.org/blog/ top article seems to be confused about whether it’s about b2 or b1. Titles says b2, all content and links seem to point to b1.
Hey guys,
first of all: I love the buddypress community, you guys are awesome and have been very helpful to me.
Now on to my question: A lot of users dont know the username of another user, but they sure do know the e-mail adress. My question is this: Can I add a function so that my users can also enter the user-email in the “to”-field where usually only a username would work?
This is not a feature of BuddyPress, there must be something in your setup that is requiring this, in other words you must have specific code that is requiring this as far as I’m aware.
@axcelluloid You can filter inside BuddyPress Strings, it’s not inside BuddyPress codes
You can also search via Find in folder approach for BuddyPress plugin
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/buddypress/stable/en-gb/default
By Default, BuddyPress only need account activation via email to start using the site.
“Please upload your profile photo to start using this site.” must be coming from your theme or any 3rd party code.
@axcelluloid Please try to debug at your site using default WordPress theme and keeping BuddyPress plugin only at your site. Inside your site, it must be some custom code or 3rd party plugin which is adding those warnings.
@jgflores
As per my understanding
— BuddyPress does not save any data related to IP address inside cookies.
— All the profile fields which you have created for your users are kept inside your WordPress database only, not linked to any 3rd party application. If you are using Akismet plugin for spam protection for BuddyPress, they will check logged in member IP address to cross check with their spammer’s database log, again that’s not the BuddyPress thing.
@vapvarun thank you for your response.
I have no budget to get Gravity forms 🙁
I’m using the second plugin but it doesn’t work.
Steps I followed:
I’ve created my contact form “Register Form” and I’ve activated Registration Settings
I’ve created my page “Registration” with “Register Form” on it
At this point “Registration page” works ok (shows “Register Form”)
Then I go to BuddyPress Settings and in Register Page select “Registration page”
When I go to “Registration page”, all the content has been overwrite with BuddyPress registration fields
Any ideas about how to fix this?
Hello you all!
Since I am using BuddyPress, I have a couple of questions regarding the GDPR compliance:
– Is this plugin setting cookies with personal information from visitors (like IP-address)?
– Is this plugin collecting, storing and/or sending personal information from visitors (IP-address, etc.) locally and/or externally?
In case that you are storing/sending and/or processing visitors’ information:
– Are the IP addresses only stored anonymously, i.e. without the last octet?
– What are you doing with the stored information?
– Do you share the data with 3rd parties? If yes, have you concluded appropriate contracts with the subcontractors that commit the subcontractors equally to data protection?
– When will the user data stored by you (in particular cookies) be deleted?
– Do you offer opt-out options for users (if yes, how are they implemented)?
– Can you provide us with a Data Processing Agreement including technical and organisational protection measures as well as an overview of the subcontractual relationships for signature?
Thanks in advance for your replay!
Best regards
Jose
Hello,
as I was able to read several fellows have the same problem as I do – new rregistered members are forced to chabge or/and upload a picture “Please upload your profile photo to start using this site.” otherwise they can not succeed.
There have been 2 topics in here and none of them provide a satisfying solution.
I do not run multiside nor the ominous plugin called “/bp-force-profile-photo/”
It is NOT caused by template or other plugins as I have the same issue when every Plugin nonrelated to buddypress are deactivated.
It would be supercool to have this issue solved 🙂
best regards,
Axl
Hi guys have set all to tabs no columns but when click the Profile tab get a column and :
– ‘Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_nouveau_xprofile_hook() in /home/content/00/5400100/html/pomm4/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-nouveau/buddypress/members/single/profile.php on line 17’
@cartessius it will be a combination of the plugins, using BuddyPress cusotmization to build up relation will need lots of customization, but MLM plugin like https://wordpress.org/plugins/affiliate-mlm-party-plan/
Binary MLM
will create a relation between the user and can display theme tree structure.
For BuddyPress, they will be an independent member with their social profile and you can easily display their parent or children user info at their profile easily via minor code edits.
For Assigning them rank, you can use any gamification plugin like mycred, badgeos and you can also automate these rank based on their activities.
@normancates You can make a suggestion for it as a feature request at following link https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/report
