@skullchow To get your site back, you need to FTP (or SSH, or whatever — you should know how to do this) into your server. Go into the wp-content/plugins/ folder, and rename the buddypress plugin to buddypress-disabled. Then, visit your site’s plugins page (.com/wp-admin/plugins.php), and WordPress will fix itself.
Then what you need to do is obtain your server’s PHP error logs. If you don’t know how to do this, ask your webhost for help. Inside it, it will be list whatever error was breaking the site. If you let us know what’s in the log, we can help figure out what broke things.
Not quite! In BuddyPress 2.6, we added support for dynamic links for user profiles.
In your template/blog post/wherever, if you wanted a link to go to the logged-in user’s activity stream (for example), create the link to <a href=http://example.com/members/me/activity">my activity stream</a>.
See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/10791 for the change.
ok, functions.php it is.
Quite literally on a page within a general wp page template, (not widgets, not menus or anything). I want an image, (which would be amongst all my other general page content) that if you click on the image, it would (dynamically) send you to your buddypress friends list.

You’ll notice the ‘friends’ image…
Sorry I was too vague, danbp. I hope this makes it more clear.
Get in touch with the chinese translation team:

You don’t need to download GlotPress, you can translate BP online. Just go to https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/buddypress/stable/zh-cn/default and log-in.

Hi,
buddypress.org use BuddyPress and bbPress plugin for the forum part (with some BP Ninja’s customization).
But note that BP activity comments are not forum topics – even if both may “look” like a discussion tread.
To get a similar behave, install bbPress as sitewide forum.
or to get a more indeep integration with your community members, use BP (member) groups and install a forum in some groups. By doing it this way, you can have thematic discussion groups, where not only the discussion is thematic, but where also the participant are sorted.
In other words, an “ordinary” forum can be categorized. With BuddyPress, a forum can be categorized, but members can be grouped, related to the group they belong to (is the group has a forum of course).
Note also that many BP user’s don’t use a group forum because group members can discuss via the group activity. This is very common, but only if you don’t care about forum fonctionnalities like sub-forums, moderation, spam/ham or rich edit for example.
Not sure to understand your problem. Check this similar solution, may be it will work for you:
bp_activity_filter_kses function
There was no change to the Extended Profiles component in BP 2.6.2.
Also i created about 11 profile groups but when i checked extended profile for my users from the admin panel i found all the created profile groups plus one more group with no content to it called “Social” which i didn’t create and i can’t even find it under Profile fields tab.
Sounds like a plugin conflict. Did you also install or upgrade some BuddyPress plugins during your BP 2.6.2 upgrade? If so, deactivate those plugins and try to replicate your issue again. Also, try a different theme like twentysixteen since some themes try to add some of their own BuddyPress customizations, which may not work properly.
Custom code for BP is generaly added to bp-custom.php.
You don’t need that plugin.
Instead, try this in your theme/functions.php or in bp_custom.php
function lisa_remove_xprofile_links() {
remove_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 9, 2 );
}
add_action('bp_setup_globals', 'lisa_remove_xprofile_links');
I followed your recommendation and posted the issue to smk-sidebar people, but no one has responded in 6 days. Please, if smk-sidebar does not work well with BuddyPress, which sidebar plugin do you recommend? I will gladly use whichever one you know works. I went to the BP article that had a link to recommended plugins, but that link is no good. So here I am again.
Looking for a little guidance. Thanks, Anne
Hi mrjarbenne. That’s still not exactly what I was looking for. I was just inquiring if it is possible if you can programatically check if a buddypress profile page belongs to an administrator vs. belongs to a regular user. I don’t think it was possible from what I found but its ok and I will mark as resolved because I have found a workaround for what I was doing. Thank you.
Danbp, How and where do I put that code you posted to create a show/hide comment button? Bear in mind I’m a BuddyPress noob and I’m no where near being a coder. Thanks!
There is info on this codex page about replacing the default cover css.
Hi, thanks for the reply. The BuddyPress cover plugin was the problem. Everything is fine now,,
If I can ask another question, is there a possibility to positioning the imagage? I don’t find anything to do that.. Thanks again
Norman
You should ask the plugin author. Post your question on the support forum for BuddyPress Cover Photo.
If you are using BP v. 2.4 or greater, you don’t need that plugin – profile cover photos are part of BP.
I have both bbPress and BuddyPress installed on a single site install and the “Pending” link only shows up once.
Can you copy and paste the “Pending” links?
You can just paste in the part after the question mark (?) from the URL. I’m most interested to see what is causing the second “Pending” link to show up.
Your issue is probably caused by a plugin conflict or a rogue code snippet somewhere.
Regarding your email issue, are you able to send out any non-BuddyPress related emails?
@rvnamb if you aren’t looking to do programming you may want to check out some of the plugins here. https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/recipes Some of them seem to integrate with Buddypress
Then add it to the activity stream as a registered activity:
Post Types Activities
Users would need to use the dashboard to create a recipe update in this model, unless you created a front end recipe posting system using something like Gravity Forms:
https://gravitywiz.com/use-gravity-forms-to-create-user-submitted-posts/
I have to break this up into separate posts because I don’t think the BP forum wants me to include so many links:
If you want to replace the activity post with recipes instead (eliminating the default ‘activity’) you could change the label of activity to “recipes” using this guide from the codex:
Change “Activity” component’s name and slug to something else.
Visit a forum, like https://buddypress.org/support/forum/how-to/ and scroll to the bottom of the topic list. The new topic form should be down there.
It is not going to their spam either…. Just not emails going out. I notice the weird two Pending list when i go to the users page which I do believe is the reason.
Now I am just unsure why it would be showing two.. If I deactive the bbpress plugin things go back to one pending list and all work’s ok.
Once I reactive Buddypress. Things stop working as JT first described
I have the same issue … using the latest bbpress 2.6.2 along with latest wp install and using GameDayTheme.
Having issues with pending users list……
I am currently using the GameDay theme and after installing buddypress I now have two pending lists when I go to my users. this is causing issues with my registration process. I tried switching themese and still have pending link show up twice.
I have attached a screenshot here.
I also have deactived all other plugins except buddy press.
Can anyone help point me in the right direction as to what would be the cause here ?
Many thanks in advance
FYI i am using the lastest wp and 2.62 buddypress
