Hmm… I forgot that those “Name” fields were not deletable from the admin dashboard.

I would recommend the following:

1. Disable the Extended Profiles component
2. Tell your developer to go into your database and drop the following DB tables:
– wp_bp_xprofile_data
– wp_bp_xprofile_fields
– wp_bp_xprofile_groups
– wp_bp_xprofile_meta
3. Next, go back to “Settings > BuddyPress > Components” and re-enable the Extended Profiles component

This should recreate the Extended Profiles database tables from scratch and hopefully things should be okay afterwards.

that worked!!

Glad to hear you’re up and running!

But should I now see 5 tabs of Field Groups that all say “Base (Primary)” when I go to Profile Fields under Users?

No, you shouldn’t.

You should leave the first “Base (Primary)” tab alone, but do delete the rest of them.

Do the same for the “Name (Primary)” field in the “Base” group. Keep the first one, but delete the rest.

Note that this is a new install. I’ve never used BuddyPress before

This does sound like a bug. It would be great to retrace your steps so we can duplicate this problem. Did you activate / deactivate / activate the plugin multiple times?

Same goes for the components list under “Settings > BuddyPress > Components” in the WP admin dashboard. Did you uncheck / check / submit certain components multiple times?

If you do not have access to your database, you can temporarily put the following snippet in your theme’s functions.php or wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php file:

function ray_xprofile_group_fix() {
	global $wpdb, $bp;

	if ( empty( $_GET['xprofilefix'] ) || empty( $bp ) ) {
		return;
	}

	$wpdb->query( "UPDATE {$bp->profile->table_name_groups} SET id = 1 WHERE id = 2" );
}
add_action( 'get_header', 'ray_xprofile_group_fix' );

Then, go to your website and append ?xprofilefix=1 to your website URL.

eg. example.com/?xprofilefix=1

This should change your profile group ID back to 1. Next, check your registration page and “Edit Profile” link and see if they work.

Once you have confirmed that it works, remove the code snippet from your theme’s functions.php or bp-custom.php file.

That is an old bbPress issue. When you edit a topic, i some case, the topic comes up twice(or more, depending how many edit you made) on the site activity.

This bug will be corrected in bbP 2.6 (actual version is 2.5.9). See ticket & patch here.
What you can do immediatly is to modify following file:

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/activity.php

Replace code between line 277/279

$existing = bp_activity_get_specific( array( 'activity_ids' => $activity_id, 'show_hidden' => true, 'spam' => 'all', ) );
if ( empty( $existing['total'] ) || ( 1 !== (int) $existing['total'] ) )
return null;

by

$existing = new BP_Activity_Activity( $activity_id );
if ( empty( $existing->component ) ) {
return null;
}

@angelaq – I think your problem is related to this:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/bad-link-to-profile-edit/#post-174602

I’m quoting the workaround solution below:

Since I’ve seen so many threads regarding it and I was having same issue.

this is regarding 404 error page if you are on page profile/edit/group/1/

Problem is group 1 is missing in your profile section.

All you need to do is go into you DB and look for table: wp_bp_xprofile_groups

Then look for id=2, Base

then just change id=2 to 1 and that’s it.

This does sound like a legitimate bug.

I’ve opened an issue about this here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7109

Can both of you try reading this and see if the same problem applies to you?

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/registration-page-does-not-work/#post-251532

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/bad-link-to-profile-edit/#post-174602

It sounds like this might be the problem at least for @angelaq.

So I thought I would shed some light on this issue. Since I’ve seen so many threads regarding it and I was having same issue.

this is regarding 404 error page if you are on page profile/edit/group/1/

Problem is group 1 is missing in your profile section.

All you need to do is go into you DB and look for table: wp_bp_xprofile_groups

then just change id=2 to 1 and that’s it.

This premium plugin – BuddyProfileData – will add profile data to the members loop.
It will add fields in a vertical stack.
If you are comfortable with css and maybe a little php, you can change it to horizontal.

Or you can write your own solution using this hook:
do_action( 'bp_directory_members_item' );
in this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\members-loop.php

Or you can create a template overload of that file and hardcode your solution directly in the template wherever and however you want it.

Re the ‘>’ – the best solution is to find out where it is being added by your theme css and change it.

Have you read this?
https://codex.buddypress.org/plugindev/add-custom-filters-to-loops-and-enjoy-them-within-your-plugin/

Go to buddypress settings and in the pages section assign the pages

No I meant your theme supports buddypress? Try with 2016 theme to see if it happens or not

How did you install buddupress? This is a custom theme right? You see activity page in your pages? In settings-buddypress have you activated activity component? Have you associated your activity page in the pages setting of buddypress?

@emeraldcity,

i suppose you already read the codex, thousand of topics and of course, that you have some php knowledge. 🙂

Groups
Add following conditionnal to the what’s new form of the group activity page.

bp_current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' )

To do this, you need a child-theme and to overload the template file. The original file is here:
wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/activity/post-form.php
Copy it to child to get:
wp-content/themes/child-theme-name/buddypress/activity/post-form.php

Members
See if these plugins can be usefull.
Geo myWP or one or the other of @shanebp ‘s Geo plugins.

Sorry for my english…
I can show everything about Music CPT buddypress activity (site-wide and members activity) with below code by @imath -also thanks for all other plugings 🙂 –

My Question or Problem.

I am using types tools pluging and i have a – frontend – add new music form (about music CPT) and members use this form to add new music with different fields. Also using rich editor and can add media from URL… Buddypress activity stream can show this form body (actually show post body normally). If i add also image from URL to this frontend music CPT form, we can see this image also on buddypress activity. Well i love buddypress.. Flexiable, great..

1 – But if i add video URL on this form do not show embed video on activity stream. I mean that, i tried 100 times frontend or backend, embed video (if use in any CPT) do not show on buddypress. When i click this activty open page and i can see video. I know missing something.

2 – If my author create any music CPT –backend admin side– with Visual Composer, there 3 different actions.

Action:1 – First, Buddypress activty show all font color or image, or texts created by visual composer. Its ok. Love buddypress. But when i select (site-wide or members activty) show post, friendship or comment than turn to everything or music cpt, buddypress now do not display this music CPT, so i must refresh the page. I mean that when a user select everything to post (or comment) or commet to everything: page must otomatically refresh to display my visual composer codes. If i dont refresh the page, activiy stream show like that [vc_row][vc_column][vc_text][/vc_column][/vc_row].

Action 2: When i edit this CPT -backend and created by VC-, buddypress sometimes dont load any activity.. If i delete this post from again backend, everything is ok, all activity is coming back. I dont know how try search this on forum.

Action 3: I am on backend admin and creating a new music CPT without visual composer.. No problem, all edit can show on buddypress again. Such as i shared music 3 hours ago but now editing. I can see this new edit when i scroll actvity page 3 hours ago… BUT, What i want, buddypress activtiy can create a new music post (for this edit) and can say “edited music” … Maybe we can put icon or color original (3 hours ago) cpt, also same time can create clone music for same cpt 🙂 on activity stream… I dont know how to search this 🙂

Long sentences long, i know 🙂 … Maybe someone help me… Becuase i am not developer just copypaste code user 🙂

add_post_type_support( 'music', 'buddypress-activity' );
function customize_page_tracking_args() {
    // Check if the Activity component is active before using it.
    if ( ! bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) {
        return; }
     bp_activity_set_post_type_tracking_args( 'music', array(
        'component_id'             => 'activity',
        'action_id'                => 'new_music',
        'bp_activity_admin_filter' => __( 'My Music', 'custom-domain' ),
        'bp_activity_front_filter' => __( 'Music', 'custom-domain' ),
        'contexts'                 => array( 'activity', 'member' ),
        'bp_activity_new_post'     => __( '%1$s published <a href="%2$s">Music Suggest</a>', 'xxx' ),
        'bp_activity_new_post_ms'  => __( '%1$s published <a href="%2$s">Musik/a>, on the site %3$s', 'xxx' ),
               
       
    ) );
}
add_action( 'init', 'customize_page_tracking_args', 1000 );

Group posting by administrators and moderators only isn’t possible out-of-the-box. You’d need to write some custom code or find a plugin that can do that.

@shanebp has been working on a geo-location plugin for BuddyPress which might be useful to you.

Hope this info helps!

Thank you I am having hard time convincing folks that this is an issue https://buddypress.org/support/topic/users-cannot-register-since-update-2-53/
Are you using any plugins or just plain BP?
