Thankfully, yes I have resolved it …at least for my situation. It appears that this began, when BuddyPress updated to most recent, v2.9.2. I asked SeventhQueen for help and they advised to check for any template overrides in my child theme folder. So, yes I do have a modified “register.php” BuddyPress file. I downloaded a backup of the file and also renamed the current one as “_old”. Then I carefully copied out my modifications. Then I imported the whole updated “register.php” and re-did the custom modifications. Hope this helps.
Hello,
I created my site in Dutch and then translated in English using wpml. For creating an account on buddypress I encounter the problem that the url-strings are made up as: https://domaine.com/?lang=en/pagename. But the strings on my site use the syntax: https://domaine.com/pagename/?lang=en. And so if users click the activation url in their mail they end up (by default) at the home-page because he doesn’t find that page.
Could you please explain to me in which file, and which part I can change the activate_url to make the url in the right syntax. And what would be the right syntax in that case.
Thank you so much in adavance,
Kind regards, Marieke
I did just find this plugin: JSON API User WordPress Plugin, https://www.parorrey.com/solutions/json-api-user/
Has anyone used it with BuddyPress? If so, how well did it work?
I’m interested in adopting BuddyPress for my membership website.
I’m hoping BuddyPress features can be accessed via API? Also, is it then possible to perform CRUD operations on profiles via API?
I did find this https://github.com/buddypress/BP-REST however not sure if BuddyPress can just work with the WordPress REST API?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Hi
I installed buddypress and users can not do anything.
User registered role standart – subscriber
What message is displayed when I want to do anything:
“Oopps! You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”
As an administrator I can do everything (add friends, accept invitations, write posts in my activity)
this is my site, someone wants to register and eg try to send me an invite to friends?
https://modster.pl/members/admin/
Yours sincerely and I count on some tips for solving my problem 🙂
Add this to your wp-config.php file before the line that says /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */ or your bp-config.php file.
define( 'BP_ENABLE_ROOT_PROFILES', true );
That comes from this page: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/customizing/changing-internal-configuration-settings/
Sometimes the person who knows the answer simply doesn’t see the post 😉

Hello!
I was on bbpress.org and want to login there – and just landed here. Nevertheless, I try to get an answer to solve my problem:
In Buddypress I can store a localization in /languages/buddypress, which is then used as I expected.
I’ve read https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/bbpress-in-your-language/ and thought, in bbpress is the same functionality.
Well, it seems not to be… the .mo-file in /languages/bbpress is apparently only used, when the file /languages/plugins/bbpress-de_DE_formal.mo doesn’t exist.
Any suggestions?
Found a solution.
functions.php
if( !defined( 'BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT' ) ){
define( 'BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'profile' );
}
function bp_remove_profile_tab_activity(){
bp_core_remove_nav_item( buddypress()->activity->id );
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bp_remove_profile_tab_activity', 999 );
Having an issue when new people get registered to my site.
When they register, Buddypress posts an activity which says that the person has registered on the site. The problem is that this happens multiple times. As you can see on the picture, theres three identical posts.

We’ve used BuddyPress internally at my company and for client’s over the years and it has worked fine.
If you want a Good UI/UX, get a premium buddypress theme. Check the folk at BuddyBoss.
P.S Made WordPress Email Opt-in and User Registration & Profile plugins.

A little stuck here.
Is it possible to edit the WP Author Bio via Buddypress?
Thank you very much @boonebgorges !
Finally found the faulty plugin: Paid Memberships Pro – BuddyPress Add On
Just have to check that my Buddypress is still correctly locked down without it !
@louisarthur – Thanks for sending me credentials. I’ve logged into your site to have a look.
As you note in your email, there’s no href attribute on these links. It’s not clear to me how this would be the case, but I can give you a starting point for looking into it yourself. Briefly, the buttons will be built without an href if the button constructing function passes an empty link_href parameter to the BP_Button class. The functions used in the two cases are different:
Message public: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.9.2/src/bp-activity/bp-activity-template.php?marks=3090#L3079
Message privé: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.9.2/src/bp-messages/bp-messages-template.php?marks=1362#L1360
The logic in each case is different, but since neither is showing up, I’m guessing that one of two things is happening:
1. One of the conditional checks shared between them is failing for some reason: bp_is_my_profile(), is_user_logged_in().
2. Something on your installation – perhaps your theme but probably a plugin (since you said Twenty Seventeen was exhibiting the problem as well) – is filtering both ‘bp_get_send_private_message_link’ and ‘bp_get_send_public_message_link’, and then incorrect returning empty strings.
To test idea #2, you might try – if you can – searching through your codebase for those filter names.
Hi Boone, thank you very much for clarifying about avatars.
Here are the lightboxes I have tried so far:
jQuery Colorbox
WP Colorbox
WP Lightbox 2
ARI Fancy Lightbox
Responsive Lightbox
Simple Lightbox
Wp Lightbox Bank Standard Edition
Generally, an option for choosing avatar sizes in BuddyPress would be much appreciated!
Regards
Carsten
I don’t believe that BuddyPress itself could be configured to do anything like this.
Are you using any other plugins that might perform redirects, or restrict access to content?
What’s your setting at Dashboard > Settings > Reading “Your Homepage displays”? I wonder if there’s something funny happening there.
> Could it be a problem in the generate button link function ?
It’s possible, but it’s definitely not a problem with BP in the most general sense. I’m looking right now at an installation that is running Twenty Seventeen, and the buttons in question are clickable. It *could* be that you have another plugin that is somehow modifying the markup so as to make the buttons unclickable. Here’s what the markup for these buttons should look like (this specific example is the ‘Public Message’ button, but they are all similar):
<a href="http://example.com/activity/?r=username&_wpnonce=97df4e3389" class="activity-button mention">Public Message</a>
Does yours look similar to this? If not, then there must be a plugin or some JS interfering.
If possible, you could send me login credentials (my buddypress.org username @ gmail.com) so that I could see from a logged-in user’s point of view.
@852cmd Hm, that string – ‘Error! Please upload Profile Picture’ – doesn’t come from BuddyPress. This should be your clue: whatever code is generating that string is probably also doing the blocking itself. Try searching your codebase – including your theme – for this error message.
Hi,
Please, is it possible to have a plugin that can help keep any activity post update in buddypress pending until approved by an admin/moderator? I have searched the web and have been unable to find such a plugin. Can buddypress help build such a plugin?
Thanks
