Hi,
I have a problem with the BuddyPress and PaidmembershipsPro connection using SweetDate theme.
The problem is that new registrants can see other members as soon as they create a new account but BEFORE selecting a free trial or subscribing to a Membership Level. I don’t want this. I want all members and messaging blocked until they subscribe to a Membership Level. How do I do this?
Can anyone please help?

I was able to fix the database table by running in the browser:
https://xxxxxx.com/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-update.php?f=bp_update_to_2_7
Maybe I’m missing some other parts, but at least now I can create the groups. 🙂
Maybe 256M is more than your server can handle? try something like 128M.
It has to be Buddypress…
Maybe, but it is working for me so it’s more likely related to your set up.
I increased both User side and Admin back end memory limit to 256M and activated “internal cache”. I tried to upload an avatar again and this time got this:
——

The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

It has to be Buddypress as I added an avatar just fine BEFORE I installed it and have never seen this error before…
Hi
I have been searching for this option but could not find much. Client wants functionality just like fb where you have options to share posts of groups/pages/friends on your wall/activity feed. So far I have came across
https://github.com/imath/bp-reshare
plugin but its not exactly what I need. It reshares within same component.
Any body? who could help !! its urgent and I am loosing my head trying to get it work as the whole idea of community would be pointless if there is no sharing option
Wordpress : 4.6.0
buddypress: 2.6.1.1
I think of BuddyPress as an enabling platform, as such the groups features handles the basics and you get to add the features you need by loading plugins such as bbPress for Forums, maybe a media plugin for photo sharing etc. As such whilst the basic features are limited in reality you get to create a custom set of features.
The path should be /my-theme/buddypress/members/activate.php
bp_group_has_members does not have an include argument.
It does have an exclude argument.
More info:
http://buddypress.wp-a2z.org/oik_api/bp_group_has_members/
So I’m reading up on how to incorporate the text changes to this file in my child theme. Do I just create a path like this: /my-theme/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/activate.php
You’ll find that text in the bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/register.php template.
This article will help too 🙂

I’m using WordPress 4.6.1 and Buddypress 2.7.2 with theme Electa, version: 1.3.01 by Kaira.
I created a group to check out that BP feature. But the ONLY thing I could do in the group was post a status update. Is that all? That’s no different than then the activity stream.
Please let me know if I missing something!
Thanks. 🙂
I’m using WordPress 4.6.1 and Buddypress 2.7.2 with theme Electa, version: 1.3.01 by Kaira.
Whenever I try to upload a profile cover photo, or avatar, the progress bar gets to the end as if it uploaded, but then nothing happens, and my site hangs and stops responding for at least 1 or 2 minutes.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
I’m not sure what’s causing this problem, but it started happening when I upgraded to latest version of Buddypress. As you can see in the pic below, the buttons disappeared and were replaced with /*Upload/*]]>* which appears to be broken codes.

Wordpress version: 4.6.1
My website is Astralmeta.com
Hi @dcavins
Following up after my last reply. I added your code to the specified directory. I receive this error in all my Buddypress interfaces (i.e. members, forums, etc.)
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<‘ in /home/swiftbus/public_html/5firemen.com/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-groups/classes/class-bp-groups-member.php on line 1314
I just get a white screen with that error in it.
After deleting your code from the file directory above, the problem went away.
However, the original Groups Header issue still persists.
Hope that helps! 🙂
I used this plugin to achieve a personal and business version of my user registration based on conditional settings: https://buddydev.com/plugins/conditional-profile-fields-for-buddypress/ but now when I’m logged in as the user and want to go into my account and edit the profile fields..I cannot get see all of the fields that I want to edit.
How can I let my users edit their profile pictures and cover image and any other info without seeing the backend of my site to do so? I also don’t want the buddypress users to see a toolbar when logged in.
Hi on my buddypress registration page (integrated with the GeoDirectory plugin) I see that I get a message after submission that says: ‘You have successfully created your account! To begin using this site you will need to activate your account via the email we have just sent to your address.’
But I’m not sure where I can edit this message to say that it is pending approval instead. There is no redirect after sign up so I cannot see a page that would be the cause of the verbiage. Any solutions on how to easily change this without messing with the hard code?
It says only registered members can see buddypress pages. we want anyone to see our members page but we have wordpress pages we want only members to see. with buddypress registration, it registers them but they can login and see member area just not profile pages.
Trying to get a theme to support BP can be a bit of a challenge, if it were me I’d start with adding the register and login links in the menu then hide them for logged in users to keep it tidy, you can do that using WPFront User Role Editor. I run a few sites with theme’s that don’t support BP, it is possible but often you find yourself having to make css changes in order to display parts of the site correctly.
I’ve set up a site, which is about setting up BuddyPress, you might want to take a look, it might give you some ideas. http://buddyuser.com
