Hi,
I am a newbie at BuddyPress.

I am using wordpress 4.9.1
BuddyPress 2.9.2

How do I configure BuddyPress to not show the Members page/link until after one is logged in?
The same question for other pages I may wish to add. How do I configure that such that visitors don’t see that page(s) until they are logged in?

Comments?
thanks in advance.

Hi,
I am a newbie at BuddyPress.

I am using wordpress 4.9.1
BuddyPress 2.9.2

My question is that I just created a new user, by registering and then he ativated.
When he logs in, he is able to see the “dashboard” option on top.

Don’t you want to users/members to stay on the actual site (buddypress) and not be able to configure anything on the backend? They shouldn’t even know its a WordPress-based site per se.

This members are considered “subscribers”.

Comments?
thanks in advance.

Does anyone have experience migrating from Jamroom to BuddyPress? Problems? Tools available? Thank you.

I use the (BuddyPress) Members widget to display newest few members to my site. (Only for logged in members, so no point in linking to the site here.) An option in the widget provides for the new member’s handle to link to their profile – very nice. But the link is not showing the colour I use to indicate that it is a link.

So I need to know what css I need to add to my child theme to colour this link. A peek at the page source shows that the member name is displayed with class=”item-title fm”

I have minimal skills in css and would appreciate SKS helping here. please.

I have looked and looked and so far it looks like this is not possible with buddypress.. embedding a group or forum feed on a page or post. I would like to do this so I can create a discussion over an article or post.

Or can you at the very least pin a post to the top of a group. I would very much like these options. Thank you in advance.

Helloooooo everybody(I’m glad you’re taking the time to help me, and hey, we all start somewhere),

So I’ve been looking into BuddyPress for about a month now, and I still can’t decide if its what I need. I love it and I respect all its glory, So let me explain what I need.

1) The overview of my site
– I want users to come to my site, register, and log in. I would love to be able to customize the way these pages look!(background image, logo, and content inside them). With regard to my user experience, I need everything done from the front end because the backend is too confusing for members.

2) What users can do on my site
– Okay, this is what I’m having trouble figuring out. I’m not looking for a full-blown social media site (yet). I want to build a site that where users can log in, create a “blog” excerpt with media and then post it.An example would be “Me and my dog” with photos, and a paragraph explaining. They should also be able to put a location tag on it. When they post it, the only people I want to see that are the people they added as friends or if they have their profile set to public. And when it shows up on their friend’s news feed it should just show a featured image, title, and the beginning of their text with a like counter.When their friends click on that post it brings them to the full blog post, not just the featured image. Their friends can favorite the content or comment on it. On a users profile, I would like to show their recent posts, and posts they’ve favorited. and that’s it. No excess information like a changed profile picture, etc. An extended bio profile would work great as well.

– I’m not looking for messaging, groups, sitewide activity, or showcasing my own personal blog to the members. I would like this site to be customized solely for the user. I wouldn’t mind having a site homepage. Would I need to enable multi-site to allow this to happen?

3) I would like this to look simple, and clean; so that brings me up to my final hurdle. What theme should I use? I’ve been looking at X, Divi, and Soledad. Are any of these themes able to do what I’m looking for? I would love to just be able to customize how everything looks on my site.

Thanks & happy holidays

Hi, I am trying to run BuddyPress on a localhost server. Everything regarding WordPress is running smooth, and all pages and permalinks are pointing to the localhost.

But entering BuddyPress content links like Profile, Notifications, Messages and Settings, returns an: Object not found!
The requested URL was not found on this server.
Error 404.

This is also the case when trying to view members, register and activate pages in the BuddyPress dashboard.

Have anyone in here experienced and found a solution to this issue?

Regards

We are using WordPress 4.9.1 with BuddyPress 2.9.2, for testing purposes I used theme Twenty Fourteen (which showed the same behavior as the Boss child-theme used on our site https://gruppen.rpi-virtuell.de/ ).

On the default registration page a new user can choose between “Everyone”, “Only Me” and “All Members” for the visibility of the (required) name under “Profile Details”. But no matter which of these three options you select – on your public profile page the name is always displayed, even to viewers who are not logged in (“everyone” for that matter).

Since we encourage the users of our site to use their real names in their profile the above behavior caused some questions, because some ot them didn’t want to show their names on their profile pages.

So my question: If BuddyPress requires the username to be present on the profile pages: Why do you have the choice of “Who can see this field?” on the registration page?
Or am I missing something?

Greetings!

I currently have WP 4.9.1 & Buddypress 2.9.2 installed. I have made a navigation menu, selected the buddy press options, which include log in, log out & Register. I have also made a bp-custom.php file with the following text in it in order to disable the BP registration and to use the default wp one.

<?php
// hacks and mods will go here

/**

* Disables BuddyPress’ registration process and fallsback to WordPress’ one.

*/

function my_disable_bp_registration() {

remove_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘bp_core_wpsignup_redirect’ );

remove_action( ‘bp_screens’, ‘bp_core_screen_signup’ );

}

add_action( ‘bp_loaded’, ‘my_disable_bp_registration’ );

add_filter( ‘bp_get_signup_page’, “firmasite_redirect_bp_signup_page”);
function firmasite_redirect_bp_signup_page($page ){
return bp_get_root_domain() . ‘/wp-login.php?action=register’;
}

?>

This works fine, in regards to when you are on the WP log in page, and choose register, it loads the correct registration page.

However, in regards to the BP Register on the navigation menu, this still re directs to the buddypress registration page. i would like it to direct to the WP one.

Can i ask please what else is needed in order for the Buddypress Register navigation menu to redirect to the WordPress Register Page.

Regards
