Hi,
in my private, user-login BuddyPress Community with groups, forums, activity-stream, I´m just integrating a blog, in which everyone should be able to create posts and comments, without having to wait for approvement!
Here is my first problem:
A participant can´t comment on an post, created by admin:
“Your comment is awaiting moderation.”
Even in the settings/discussion, “Allow people to post comments on new articles” is set!
I also can´t find any other option, which could feed to this problem!
Second:
People should be able to create posts in the frontend, that it is not necessary, that they logg in into the wordpress-backend.
Can anyone suggested a plugin for that?
nice greetings and thousand thanks
Sandra
This is not a feature of core BuddyPress. There’s a plugin (pretty old though) called BuddyPress Moderation however this allows the post to be flagged for moderation after it has been posted, as opposed to holding posts in a moderation queue.
Hello there,
I created a Public and a Private Group on me site with BuddyPress. But i can’t find from where to make the comments to be hold for moderation, before they appear online.
Thank you very much for any help!!
You could check the Register page is set correctly in Dashboard>>Settings>>BuddyPress>>Pages. There should be a dropdown there to select the register page you wish to use. It should be set automatically though.
If I were you I’ve deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress to see if you still have the issue. I’ve got a test site running 2015 and bp and here it works so it seems that it’s something specific to your site.
After updating Buddypress I ‘v got the following problem. When I change the sorting of the memberlist (alphabetic, newest or oldest) I lose my custom translation and see much more members than belong to the selected group. After refreshing the page (F5) everything turns to normal. This happens every time I change the sorting.
Thanks for your help!
I notice the registration form does not ask for the BuddyPress username, only the WordPress username. have you changed anything from the default to make it this way? That login does not seem to work.
Hi to all, please say what are the minimum requirements for PHP (hosting) BuddyPress 2.9.3 ?
I can not find this information anywhere.
Hi,
I´m looking for a professional, who can fix the search in a buddypress-members-community of a human rights organization, based in Berlin.
It´s realized with the Plugin “BP Profile Search”.
The community also includes groups, a forum and an activity-stream.
But the focus in this community has to be the Search with detailed functions to find members.
And it doesn´t work totally fine.
For example: The search doesn´t find a person, that is already there.
I´m not sure, if it is a problem with the different user-roles between groups and forum…no idea.
Also to be done: the community has to be mirrored to a development-environment.
During this, the groups and forum have to move for a blog. So the system will have less user-rights…etc….and hopefully no problems with the search anymore.
Is someone interested or can help?
This all should be done until end of march.
nice greetings Sandra

hi what is the best plugin to use for my members to upload profile pictures to there profile
Members
WordPress Version 4.9.4,BuddyPress version 2.9.3
Hi all,
I’m new to BuddyPress but I’m quickly getting to grips with it. I am, however, having an issue with the registration and profile fields.
Registration: it’s simply not doing anything when selecting “complete signup”. It sometimes redirects to the homepage and nothing shows up on the backend.
Profile Fields: I’m getting duplications of the same field group, “Base (Primary)”. I’ve entered some new fields into the first of the duplicates, but nothing shows up on the registration page.
Any support would be hugely appreciated.
Cheers!
An alternative would be to use the BuddyPress Extended User Groups Widget from BuddyDev to display groups the user is admin of, then use something like Shortcode any Widget to display it in the page content. Not quite what you are looking for but simpler if you don’t feel up to coding.
I don’t know of a shortcode for listing out groups. However, you could use the code in buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/groups/groups-loop.php as a starter. The loop is powered by bp_has_groups() which is template loop like the WordPress posts loop. You could add a template to your child theme, like page-group-list.php and copy that groups loop into it and start tinkering. you can read more about the parameters you can pass into bp_has_groups() here: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/2.9/src/bp-groups/bp-groups-template.php#L290
I do want to make sure that you know there’s a group directory built by default, right?
Thank you very much for your reply!!!
What I want to do is to echo in the reply comment form textarea “@username” (where username is the username author of the comment I’m going to reply.
Add the “@username” for activity update relpy is very easy. I edited the file /plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/activity/entry.php
from:
<textarea id=”ac-input-<?php bp_activity_id(); ?>” class=”ac-input bp-suggestions” name=”ac_input_<?php bp_activity_id(); ?>”></textarea>
to:
<?php $userid” = ‘@’ . bp_core_get_username(bp_get_activity_user_id()); ?>
<textarea id=”ac-input-<?php bp_activity_id(); ?>” class=”ac-input bp-suggestions” name=”ac_input_<?php bp_activity_id(); ?>”> <?php echo $userid; ?> </textarea>
and it work!
On the contrary, when I reply to an activity comment (acomment) I can get the author username by bp_core_get_username(bp_get_activity_comment_user_id()); editing the file: /plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/activity/comment.php
but the button “reply” created by comment.php open the form created by edit.php and within this file I can get only the activity root user_id and I can’t get the comment user_id 🙁
I tried also with the GLOBALS variables but noway 🙁
So what I need is to pass bp_core_get_username(bp_get_activity_comment_user_id()) executed by comment.php to the file edit.php
If this is not possible or to difficult to perform there is a second possibility.
When I reply to a comment the post form is opened attached to the right comment. So it is enought to get the username from the <div class=”acomment-meta”> in the comment area itself. I tried to do that by a little js inside entry.php but I’m too basic to do that 🙁
If you need I can give you credentials to work on my test site. But it is a normal wordpress site with only buddypress plugin and the Minimal theme.
I hope to have been more clear now. If not, I can do another try 😉 but I think that images are not useful for a better explanation of the problem 🙁
It would be fantastic if you could help me as I can’t solve it by myself 🙁
Kisses!
Giuly
Hello, not sure about the timing of a 2.9.4 release. Also unaware of a bug with the number of friends not matching the indicator bubble. If you can verify that there is a bug, please open a trac ticket: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/
Thanks!
There’s a function to tell when you’re on a BP page is_buddypress() so this is a guess at how you could do it:
add_action( 'wp_head', function() {
if ( is_buddypress() ) {
echo '<meta name="robots" content="noindex">';
}
});
It would be better if you added your custom code to bp-custom.php rather than to a theme. (When the theme is updated, you’ll lose your changes.)
About bp-custom.php: https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-custom-php/
To insert those fields, you’ll just have to change you code, replacing 'field=Location' with the name of your profile field. Here’s some more info: https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/guides/displaying-extended-profile-fields-on-member-profiles/
That’s an interesting idea. It seems like it should be possible, because BuddyPress is using a JavaScript library called livestamp to generate those strings. It relies on moment.js for localization (localization usually means translation, but could also mean “custom messages”). I think you could change the “relative time thresholds” as described here:
http://momentjs.com/docs/#/customization/relative-time-threshold/
This shouldn’t be possible. BuddyPress checks if a username exists before registering the user.
Hi,
How can I set a noindex tag on all buddypress pages, in order not to show them on google?
Ok this is a wierd one and it just happened suddenly. I can view a buddypress profile page on the desktop no problem, but when i try on mobile i get the “Oops you blew up the internet”
Tried resetting my permalinks, cleared cache etc and no luck. Anyone got any solutions?
ah… i should have said I’ve installed Buddypress Members Only plugin,
Possibly you could look at the BuddyPress Automatic Friends plugin and use that as a basis for your plugin?
So, with site-wide activity tracking turned on in buddypress, new blog posts are reported in the activity stream along with the post’s featured image but the image is not clickable and a user must click the title to see the content. How can I make the images for new blog post click into the post for the activity stream. What file would that be?
