BuddyPress.org

You’ll probably want to create a new page and then load a custom template.

In your custom template, you’ll need to create an Activity loop with the parameters that you want.

Sounds like this is your first time performing these tasks.
Give it a serious and thorough attempt and see how far you can get.
If you get stuck, use gist or pastebin to share the code in your custom template.

Please do not paste all the code on these forums.

Thanks for your concern.

The responsible way to report a security issue is to:

1. Tell WP about it

2. Open a ticket here – using the same user/pw you use for these forums.

BP xProfile Location creates an xProfile field type.
And it will include any of those field types on the the search form created by BP Profile Search.

I think you want to use Google to auto-populate the textbox(es) created on the search form, based on user input.
That would require custom code added to the BP Profile Search plugin.
You will have to write that code yourself or hire a developer.

@imath

In a woocommere environment where users get registered from there, is there a way to have BuddyPress to sync with WP registration info (i.e. first name, last name, change password)?
Can this e bidirectional too?

Thank you!

Hi @nnyorker,

Try this plugin: BuddyPress profile tabs

Hi, i am new with buddypress and i like to have the posts from the users on the profil page too. But i have the same double entries. This looks bad. Is there any news to fix this?

Hello @nanettedp,

don’t be sorry, we all started a day from 0.
You exposed (very clearly) your problem, that’s great ! The next step is to learn how to do that.

If you ask for aid on a support forum like this one, this implies in principle you already did something (who may not work as expected for ex.) In this case, you should show us what you’ve done, so somebody can help you.

As yo ask for a doc like a how-to, you can search on this forum or google a bit to find one. They’re plenty topics here about this, with more or less explanation and comments.

But you say you’re a newbie. It’s not like i don’t want to help you, but i can’t teach you this. You need some tech level, even a low one and i ignore which one you already have. It’s also time consuming and as mod i have other things to do here as teaching you. Hope you understand. 😉

As you didn’t really understand the function i indicate you, i assume you’re not familiar with php and how to use it. So you’re like i was a few years back: a newbie.

The only thing to do is to learn. You have to experiment, to read documentation, topics and what ever related to code, WP and BP… That’s how we all acquire experience !

Or i’m completely wrong and you meaned by i need a bit more help give me the solution. In other words, make the work for me so i can add it to my site.
If so, you can hire a developper from here.

Your first topic started with Is there a way that I can create a custom URL.

Yes there is a way. It’s you! Now it’s your turn to play: create and just do it!

Hi @eutopia007,

you say nothing about the theme, which could be the culprit. Activate one of the default WordPress Twenty theme and see if the error remain.

In any case, a page named #gf_2 is not part of BuddyPress or WordPress. Check all your pages and their permalinks. If you find one using that, delete it. You should also clear your trash definetly as it could be you have that page in it.

WordPress use page which should be unique and have unique names.

For more information, read here.

There is nothing to debug, it is how it works. BP is usually activated on the main site, and stays on the mainsite, whatever you build around with multisite or multinetwork or both.

Read some explanation about multisite, multinetwork and how BP is displayed and working on such installs:

BP menu on wp multisite

Hi,

I have the same problem. Throughout the website, we make use of unique display_name. I didn’t get the real hook or filter to manage this situation. Please check the link below.

change username to display name

@insearchofasolution no problem mate.

Seems like you know what you are aiming for so its really down to time and research, you do not need to be a master with PHP to pull this off yourself, although knowing the basics helps. If you can understand what you need to change or integrate you can find answers with a little google searching and quite often you can find various different solutions to similar problems others may of come across.

About the plugins I mentioned, you should go to the wp-types website and set up a demo install of toolset for yourself, just search the website and there will be an option for you to have a test environment set up for free hosted on their servers where you can test out all the plugin suite, it will even let you install the dummy content for various complex website setups that have been created with toolset for demonstration purposes, it shows what is possible with these plugins when used together as a package. Its worth taking a look at trust me on this one.

I have only messed with the vendors plugin you have mentioned briefly so I have not tried it out with buddypress but as @sharmavishal has mentioned above you might also want to check out the paid plugin he mentioned to if it has BP compatibility.

So the mainsite BP menu is not complete on subsite!

That’s right, because on a subsite, you’re on a blog.
BP is only active on the mainsite, as it’s where it is activated. On mainsite you see whole members fonctionnalities (friends, groups, messages and son on). On a blog, aka subsite, you’re like a user of a WP site whithout BP.

That’s also the reason why enabling multiblog is deactivated by default and not usefull in most of case. This warning is given on the codex page i indicated you previously.

Deactivate multiblog and revert to initial default configuration.

On the toolbar, in top left corner, you have the usermenu with all BP items. This menu is accessible to logedin user, wherever he is. Mainsite or subsite. And that’s default behave !

For a bit more understanding, in case you want insist to remove that menu to get it on the main nav (beside About, Home etc), please take a look to this topic.

Cheers ! 😉

Disques is intended for WordPress (read plugin description), not BuddyPress, which use his own comment system through essentialy the site activities.

You’re incorrect. See Trac to have an idea of what improvements are part of.

You should never hack core files, as you already said ,you will have to redo your customization after each update !

1) https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/

2) BP will be updated, and your custom work will remain intact, as long as you use a child-theme and bp-custom.php Child theme and bp-custom have priority when BP is loaded. Anything which is not in them will then be taken directly from BP or theme. Read about template hierarchy on codex.

All this is detailled on codex. If questions, seacch the forum, they’re many topics around this.

@insearchofasolution Just thought I would chime in on this.

You would be able to do this but it depends on the approach you take, You could use buddypress for the social network side of things for the messaging between users etc and profile pages/groups etc whilst building a custom user interface for most of the other options you mentioned and tie them together for each user.

Its good you are clear about what you are exactly wanting to build and its all down to research, You can most definitely create separate vendor pages and account pages using custom post types and fields and creating templates for these pages etc.

If you don’t know how to do all of this you may struggle though, unless a specific plugin meets your requirements, I myself have been using an amazing suite of plugins over the past year or so that will help you do a lot of this yourself , they are brilliant for creating complex websites and layouts without having to write everything from scratch. You will have to have knowledge of html and css etc at the very least to use them efficiently though, they do come at a cost and you are looking at $300 for the complete set, these plugins are a little more advanced than other plugins to use as they are developer orientated and can be overwhelming at first if you are new to them, but if you stick with them you will start to realize the doors these plugins can open for you on wordpress and can help make your workflow loads faster and make your project come to life. do a search for TOOLSET PLUGINS by wp-types.

I hope this helps a little bit, creating a complex website as you mentioned above will take patience and time if you are new to doing it, I am in the middle of a few complex builds myself and to be honest with you I now pre-fare to use these plugins for most of my projects now as I can easily create any type of custom post with custom fields and display them via content templates without having to create the templates from scratch on each project.

The best thing about the custom fields you can create with these plugins is that you can create user specific fields and control access to everything with the access plugin, giving you full control over everything and you can create quite complex membership sites yourself.

Most of bp files are in php, so i can’t answer for YOUR php file.

I you modify the register page, where xprofile fields are showing at first, the template file i’m talking about is in bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/register.php.

If you don’t know about template overload, read here first.

Or if you use a custom function to fire your work via an action hook, perhaps you could try to use bp-custom.php

Use bp_get_loggedin_user_link()

Still same answer as for your previous topic in 2015.

Do you mean a sub-group ? There is a plugin for that: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warnings-with-bp25 (not updated, but is still working) – see the support if you have an issue.

Or read on codex about Group API and how to add them a new page…

Group Extension API
