BuddyPress.org

Nope. I just have Buddypress installed without any email plugins. Just using whatever WordPress uses as a standard! I’d love to get this working as I have an organization that I am proposing we convert to this as our members are very active on FaceBook and why not make our organization’s website interactive with BuddyPress.

Please don’t call out people individually (this was already told to you by @shanebp)

bp-default is no more the default theme for BP. You can use almost any other existing theme.
While testing, i recommend you to use one of the Twenty’s theme shipped with WordPress.

Then to create a child theme and copy into it the needed file from wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/buddypress/

As reminder, a page structure contains at least a header, a content and a footer template, and sometimes a sidebar, depending the theme you use.

If you open index.php from wp-content\plugins\buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\index.php you should get the search form in that template.

Though if you asign the Member page as home page in WP’s Read settings, you won’t have to struggle much with customization.

Read Codex attentively by starting from here.

You may also explain what you want to do exactly and tell which theme you use.

@alexandra55 you can achieve this by adding a little snippet to your bp-custom.php or functions.php.

add_action( 'template_redirect', 'themename_redirect_author_archive_to_profile' );
function themename_redirect_author_archive_to_profile() {
  if(is_author()){
    $user_id = get_query_var( 'author' );
    wp_redirect( bp_core_get_user_domain( $user_id ) );
  }
}

Hope this helps!

That itself doesn’t sound like something BuddyPress ought to cause. What caching plugins were/are you running?

@oakcreative I know this is an old thread, but we (BuddyPress) could change out the #content_ifr selector for something less specific if that’s what you found you needed to do. Can you confirm?

Have you tried both lines i indicated previously ?
Also, what about thumbnail size in WP settings ? Have you checked that ?

I’m not very well with attachments… But you’re proably right. See her for all bp_atachment references
http://hookr.io/plugins/buddypress/#index=a&search=bp_attachments

You might be able to use this filter
apply_filters( 'bp_email_set_subject', $subject, $this );
And run stripslashes on the $subject.

Something like:

function richdal_email_subject( $subject, $obj ) {
    $subject = stripslashes( $subject );
    return $subject;
}
add_filter( 'bp_email_set_subject', 'richdal_email_subject', 15, 2 );

But you shouldn’t have to, afaik.
The issue is probably just due to an over-sight.

You can open a ticket here, using the same user / pw as this forum.

Include a link to this topic.
And if you try the filter above, the results of that test.

Additional Information.

I am using sendgrid plugin to send emails, buddypress sending the plain text html. I need HTML email. I also tried to add the following code in function.php but BP_Email showing me null value.

add_filter( 'bp_email_use_wp_mail', '__return_false' );
add_filter( 'bp_send_email_delivery_class', function( $delivery_class ) { 
    return 'Implementwpemailbp'; 
} );
class Implementwpemailbp implements BP_Email_Delivery
{
public function bp_email(BP_Email $email){
//add_filter('wp_mail_content_type', 'set_html_content_type');

//wp_mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers = '', $attachments = array())

//remove_filter('wp_mail_content_type', 'set_html_content_type');
var_dump(get_object_vars(BP_Email));
}
}

Please help what I need to update in above code.

Hi guys,

I found out that mandrillapp.com works as SMTP service with BuddyPress because of replacing all line feeds ("\n") by <br/> in the message body. The issue there is that mandrillapp.com will become an AddOn of MailChimp with day of 27th April this year.

For this reason I searched for another SMTP service and tried SendGrid. Both SMTP services can use individual HTML templates, not from BuddyPress but you can style it within your account there. For now SendGrid cannot replace the line feeds as mandrillapp.com does but I contacted the support team of SendGrid and they will work on a solution for it. Hope to get the solution soon.

Best,
Thorsten

Thanks Paul for your quick reply 🙂

That’s a valid point! I am using Easy WP SMTP right now! I need to deliver situation like subscription and welcome emails..

To make clear, would you please advise which plugin is compatible with buddypress! I guess buddypress situation giving me some cool features such as user engagement. However, I wonder if it is integrated with the theme I’ve installed WPLMS since it delivers some emailing features related to courses status as well does WooCommerce.

Thanks again for your support
Cheers

Any plugin that redeclares wp_mail() will cause BuddyPress to send plain text emails.
The Postman SMTP plugin redeclares the function in Postman/PostmanWpMailBinder.php.

A solution might be to find another SMTP plugin, but it depends what exactly you are using the Postman plugin for.

I think this is the same as https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6954

Hey,

I have the same problem that buddypress just sends plain text emails not HTML?!

Any help is highly appreciated.

Sounds like you’re mkissing a call to bbpress pagination.

Maybe this?
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'pagination', 'topics' ); ?>

btw – this is BuddyPress support forums – bbpress support forums are here.

See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6961

I’ve added Secure cookie support, but not HttpOnly because some (maybe all) are accessed with Javascript; I haven’t time to audit all the cookies in that level of detail at the moment, so maybe we can do that in the future if someone helps investigate.

I cannot duplicate this problem with Theme My Login.

I’m using the default Theme My Login settings untouched and was able to go to the register page and successfully submit the form with no redirections.

Make sure for BuddyPress that you selected the BuddyPress “Register” page and not TMLs.

Also disable any plugins that might be interferring with registration like New User Approve, etc.

Hi

Good question. You can’t without making changes to the BuddyPress files, which we wouldn’t recommend. This is a great idea for a feature enhancement so I’ve gone ahead and opened a ticket. We’ll have it fixed for BuddyPress 2.6 (I’m working on the patch right now).

Thanks for the suggestion!

Did you turn on registration on your WP install? See:
https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/register-and-activation-pages/

@georgio-1,

The easiest way is to probably just use CSS on the ID of the name you wish to remove and insert into your style.css file:

#id { 
display: none; 
}

(find the ID using your browser’s developer tools).

The other option is to find the file creating the second name using its ID and delete the code creating it. If it’s BuddyPress then copy the file into your child theme first before deleting. If it’s your bp-cover plugin creating it, then the approach with CSS is probably easiest.

Hi,

I want to send html email, but it always sending Plain text email content.
Using Thunderbird email client.

Template showing in Mails->customize, setting not reflecting in email.
Wordpress : Version 4.4.1
Buddypress : Version 2.5.1

Please help what is correct steps to get html emails working.

Using Gravity Forms is one solution, yes. It’s easy once you have the plugin itself PLUS the “user registration” plugin they offer which i think is open only for the developer license. It completely replaces the BuddyPress registration form. I use it for a variety of sites that need more complex registration forms (there of course is a tradeoff, but one of the pluses is that Gravity Forms are rock solid against registration spam).
