Hi,
I’ve just installed BuddyPress on my WordPress and I’ve also noticed that BuddyPress messes around with my Flexslider by slowing down the loading of the first slide.
I don’t get your explanation to solve this problem. Could you be more precise about it?
Thank you very much your answer.
hi,
Been trying to set this up for a few days now, but no success. I’ve setup a multi-site network with sub-directories and buddypress network activated.
I’ve added define( ‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true ); to config.php as recommanded for BP multisite install.
Main site: mydomain.com
subsite: mydomain.com/subsite
When users upload their profile picture on main site, unfortunately it doesn’t sync with their profile when they go on the subsite.
The following codes have worked for some people but not for me. Still trying to find a solution.
function bpdev_fix_avatar_dir_path( $path ){
if ( is_multisite() && BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG )
$path = ABSPATH . ‘wp-content/uploads/’;
return $path;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_core_avatar_upload_path’, ‘bpdev_fix_avatar_dir_path’, 1 );
//fix the upload dir url
function bpdev_fix_avatar_dir_url( $url ){
if ( is_multisite() )
$url = network_home_url(‘/wp-content/uploads’) ;
return $url;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_core_avatar_url’, ‘bpdev_fix_avatar_dir_url’, 1 );

I also have Ultimate Members plugin but I just installed this after a week this problem appear. I’m still no clue how to fix this and I hope somebody willing to help me. i’m noob fyi. Thank you very much.
Hello great team,
I need contribution of your ideas please. I have a wordpress site that I am designing and I am stuck. I would like to allow/enable all users to be able to publish/create groups under buddypress. I don’t want the “group creation” rights be left just to the admin. I want anyone to create groups.
I would like to do this urgently. Your ideas are needed.
Thank you.
You need to translate BuddyPress into French as well.
View this codex page for more info on how to manually download and apply the French translation:
Languages and Translations
BuddyPress doesn’t use shortcodes.
Instead, it relies on connecting specific WordPress pages to BuddyPress components.
Read this section for more info:
https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-components/#settings-buddypress-pages
Doesn’t buddypresss take on the main theme? So if I design my main theme in Artisteer or Template Toaster doesn’t buddypress take on that main theme?
You can use builder plugins with WP, but not with BuddyPress which uses its own templates.
Is word press compatible with page builder plugins like elementor pro? I need to develop 2 wp sites but I was thinking about using elementor pro or toaster template wp software? Any feedback would be great. Thank You
I use the theme Woffice, the theme is developed with Buddypress.
I translated the theme into French, but it does not work when the Buddypress plugin is activated. When I disable BuddyPress, the theme translation works. The support of Woffice does not have this problem, there is only on my site, I do not understand why, can you help me ?
I disable all my plugins, I encounter this problem only when BuddyPress is enabled
Hello, I have a big problem. I accidentally deleted all pages which were associated to 1 (from a basket too). Now I won’t be able to restore them and I want to ask for your help. Could you send me the shortcodes of all of these pages so I can create new pages? Pages: Registration, Activity, Authorization, Profile and so on. I hope for your help!
You should copy the buddypress template files to your child theme and edit the individual profile pages there.
I managed to make a custom profile page like this

Multisite running WordPress 4.7.3
Subdirectory
BuddyPress Version 2.8.2
BuddyBoss Social Learner theme -Using child theme
Did not modify core files
The other website we’ve tested on is using the WPLMS theme. Comment moderating/notifications were working until we activated BuddyPress.
Try using this hook:
do_action_ref_array( 'groups_member_before_save', array( &$this ) );
Found in: buddypress\bp-groups\classes\class-bp-groups-member.php
Withdrawn, I realized now that the registration page is a WordPress feature, not buddypress
I’m leaning now towards suspecting the register page in buddypress. It has a text, and below that a form element, and within the form there are two sections, div. These divs have their respective sizes but these sizes are not inherited (or whatever it’s called) up to the form, so the form appears with no vertical extension.
This leads to that when the right sidebar moves to a relative position, its div will cover the form, and it becomes impossible to click the fields to type.
I tried now generating a page with a form, and it displays properly. So I’m convinced the solution is by editing something in the buddypress code that generated the registration page.
Hello.
User profiles do not show messages, groups, and friends that were created in the past.
There is also a problem with sending messages.
I also miss the past of some groups in the activity stream.
On the site is the latest wordpress and latest buddypress.
Can someone help me?
Thx.
Hi
My website is multi vendor and use buddypress.
If a buyer click the vendor store name (Baby Shop) in this page: https://atbuz.com/product-category/heepster-good/media/, then the buyer will go to this page: https://atbuz.com/members/baby/ , the name “baby” is a vendor store name, but how the buyer can return on the vendor (baby shop) shop page with all products? Because I don’t find any button to let the buyer return to the vendor shop page.
Can you show me how to do or how to setting please?
Thank
Franck
I’m using Buddypress with the Sweetdate theme and the Default Privacy settings don’t seem to work. I’ve changed a default to ‘Friends – Visable to user Friends’ but this didn’t hide the profile from non friends. I asked the Sweetdate support to investigate and they tested this function on the sweetdate theme and a simple WordPress template and it didn’t work for them either. They suggested it was a Buddypress bug and not a Sweetdate theme issue.
This option looks like an option that come with the Simple BuddyPress Profile Privacy plugin. I wondered if this was incorporated in Buddypress by default now?? Should I be installing this plugin?
Can you help solve my problem.
You mention forums specifically.
If that is the case, you should use bbPress conditional functions.
See this page for more details:
bbPress Conditional Tags
If you have more questions, post on the bbPress forums as BuddyPress is not bbPress:
– BuddyPress = community
– bbPress = forums
Thank you for replying. I have 7,800 members on the active site. Are there pre-existing import script that parse my old database tables to match the BuddyPress DB schema? I am thinking of simply importing the (1)user name, (2)password, (3)associated email address and (4) profile photos and then asking each user to answer the slightly different questions on their profiles on the new BP site. Is there a plugin or some script that could help with that?
add_theme_support( 'buddypress' ) is for custom BuddyPress themes not relying on theme compatiblity.
I would remove that line from your theme’s functions.php and then load a BuddyPress page to see if the default BP styles show up as expected.
I want to moderate and receive notifications for comments. I have the appropriate options turned on in my WordPress Discussion Settings but the comments just post automatically as if there’s no moderation. Also comment/moderation notifications are not being sent. I tested whether emails are being sent from the website and the test notification emails are able to go through.
I turned off all the plugins I could to see if it was another plugin’s issue – the only one I didn’t turn off was BuddyPress (since it’s a part of the theme). The comments were still bypassing moderation and notifications.
We activated BuddyPress on another website whose comments/moderation was working to see if the BuddyPress plugin would break it. And it did break – all of a sudden the comments bypassed moderation and notifications.
Since commenting is so integral to WordPress I was surprised that I was having this issue. Do you know if there’s something specific that I could check within the BuddyPress plugin?
