BuddyPress.org

Hello, thank you for your assistance. I have upgraded to BuddyPress v12, but now I am facing an issue. I am unable to customize my site from WordPress, specifically under APPEARANCE/CUSTOMIZE. Every time I try to customize the site, I receive an error message. Even the widget page is not loading properly for customization and some widgets stopped working (eg: who’s online widget)

This issue prompted me to use WP Rollback to revert to the previous version, but going back broke my site. Is there a fix for this? I would really appreciate your help.

Hi Richard,

To edit the signup/register page for new BuddyPress members, check if it’s listed under pages or the BuddyPress plugin menu. If not, you might need to explore the plugin settings or customization options.

Now I’ve read the other topic you posted into, I know you are using WordPress Multisite.

My question about viewing the registration page being disconnected might seem a bit obvious but I wanted to check if you were using or not the Site invitation feature of BuddyPress which uses our signup page although global registration are disabled.

But I guess registration is on since you’re using a specific plugin.

Using BuddyPress < 12.0.0, once you removed the registration page, were you getting a notice to do the page association ?

I believe reading your post we should probably stop assuming you want BuddyPress to manage registration to your site, so I’ll work on a way to only do so if the admin opts in.

Let’s discuss about your issue in this topic https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-delete-register-page/ @bermudastream 🙏

Hi @bermudastream can you give more details about your config:

– WordPress Multisite or regular ?
– In the site health information tab, what are the values of:
– WordPress > registration
– BuddyPress > URL parser

– being disconnected, what do you see when you go to this registration page ?

Unsure if this is what you mean, I am trying to get back the WordPress Registration form, maybe you will fare better with it?

buddypress birthdays looks like a wbcom designs widget, I’m gonna try and install it on a site with buddypress 12 to see if it works, will report back

Woffice just made an update, it fix it.

However, we lost the customization of BuddyPress Birthdays…

@imath Thoughts?

Previously, it was possible to eliminate the registration page entirely, which I had to do because of excessive spam sign-ups. However, after the latest update, I attempted to delete the page, only to find that BuddyPress pages are no longer accessible in the network admin panel. I even tried renaming the registration page to something obscure, but I’m still inundated with bot and spam sign-ups.

Is the BuddyPress team aware of what I perceive as a major setback in the latest update? Previously, I used a plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-registration/) to navigate around the weak registration page and I am still using it except that I have the main buddypress registration page causing problems which I cannot cancel. Perhaps I’m overlooking something. If so, could you provide suggestions on how to secure the BuddyPress registration page or eliminate it completely which I would prepare to do as
I’ve never been able to customize it

if it also helps to know the work around is i have youzify when i deactivate that then some of the problem goes away that is a plugin i paid for and it works great gives me alot of features that i dont want to loose when i have to mess with the themes side of things or buddypress i have to turn off youzify when done turn it back on is there a way i can go back to the 11 release of budddy press

Hi @shemakeswebsites,

12.0.0 brings URL slugs customization, that’s a big improvement to have meaningful URLs for non English communities.

These communities are using different words for things like Activity, groups etc.. They can do so thanks to the l10n feature of WordPress. So a good way to reach your goal is to use a custom translation file. And I believe it’s the best way to do so, because the page title or labels won’t be enough to really reword all places where we use groups.

You can try to put your custom translation file into wp-content/languages/buddypress/buddypress-xx_XX.mo replacing the xx_XX with your locale maybe it’s even working with en_US.

Hi @ingenxcomputers

If you are using BuddyPress version 12.0 and up, you can customize the title and the URL of these pages from the URLs tab of the BuddyPress settings: https://github.com/buddypress/buddypress/blob/master/docs/user/administration/settings/urls.md

If you need to include these pages into a WP Nav menu, please have look to:
