BuddyPress.org

Hi,

You’re probably on a large screen. Default display of the directory is already a list. See template code (members-loop.php) using ul and li !

Check your theme or try to simulate a mobile screen (if u use firefox it’s Ctrl+shif+m) to see if your directory get wrapped or not. If not, adjust your (child)theme CSS.

Have you looked at template hierarchy?

Template Hierarchy

Hi @etavio

Your custom plugin is most likely filtering get_avatar to display your custom images. BuddyPress actually bypasses that filter through the use of bp_core_fetch_avatar().

Ref: https://github.com/buddypress/BuddyPress/blob/master/src/bp-core/bp-core-avatars.php#L192

You will need to use a different filter.

BuddyPress users are the same as WordPress so you can create a user using https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_create_user

To set profile fields data:

xprofile_set_field_data( $field, $user_id, $value, $is_required = false )

$fields = field id

$user_id = current login user id

$value = inserted value

$is_required = boolean

BuddyPress searches username and profile fields to find a member. You would need to develop a custom solution for this. Is this requirement for site admins? If so, you can find members by id in the admin -> Users menu item.

Any profile fields you create in the admin that are in the first section are automatically added to the registration form.

User Extended Profiles

Hi,

you have to check your custom plugin. Or even to deactivate it, as it is no more necessary when you use BP. Problem seems to be that you created something related to members handling before BP was installed.

BuddyPress handles members and their avatars via the buit-in WP avatar function.

If you need more help, please give details about your config, theme and custom code. Thxs 😉

Hi,

it’s related to a custom work of the theme used on buddypress.org. You can read more here and get the source code here.

If so, make sure you assign that page to your BuddyPress “register” page under the BuddyPress admin menu.

Unless you are explicitly using the bp-default theme, not recommended, you should always use these templates: buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\

iow. this members-loop:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\members-loop.php

Do not edit core BuddyPress files. Next update, it’ll be replaced and you’ll have to do it all over again.

@mtgame21 We attempted to comprehensively provide classes on the body element to cover and catch as many conditions in BP so check those classes – as Henry points out – on the body element. The first you’ll possibly notice is ‘.bp-user’ to cover all instances of a users account screens. As an example if you’re looking at your profile screen you should see a series of body class tokens like this:

xprofile bp-user my-account my-profile profile public buddypress

With these classes we cover all important states, we inform we are on a Users series of screens ‘bp-user’, we state in this instance that it’s the logged in users account with ‘my-account’, we state the specific screen ‘profile’ and again we further specify that this is ‘my-profile’ the logged in user.

Check out further screens to see how these class tokens will change.

I can’t get the escaped characters to appear in a way that reflects what BuddyPress is outputting to the screen.

To determine if the issue is in your theme, try switching momentarily to a WP theme like 2013.
You’ll need to copy members-loop.php to a buddypress folder in that theme.

You can only echo the data if it exists.
Try:

$your_name = bp_get_member_profile_data( 'field=Your Name' );
if ( $your_name != false ) 
   echo $your_name;

BuddyPress 2.5 made a lot of changes to how BuddyPress works with emails. We’ve been making incremental fixes and compatibility improvements in each release since, and we have v2.5.3 almost ready for sometime in the next couple of weeks or so.

People still having problems could try running https://en-au.wordpress.org/plugins/bp-email-to-wp-mail-from-bridge/ to see if it helps, but we have other fixes in place for v2.5.3 that aren’t provided by this plugin.

Thanks. This isn’t actually a bug in BuddyPress, but we flag it to reveal code in other plugins running at the wrong time because quite often this can cause very subtle problems in BuddyPress and other plugins.

We’ve very recently adjusted the messaging to make it clearer which plugin is causing us to trigger this notice: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/10709/
