Unfortunately it is hardcoded here: plugins/buddypress/bp-members/classes/class-bp-members-template.php line 193

Hi Guys,

I’ve found an solution.

For childthemes you have to check the following infos:

BuddyPress Cover Images

Here is what I have paste to my child themes functions.php, and now the cover image works:

function your_theme_cover_image_css( $settings = array() ) {
    /**
     * If you are using a child theme, use bp-child-css
     * as the theme handel
     */
    $theme_handle = 'bp-child-css';

    $settings['theme_handle'] = $theme_handle;

    /**
     * Then you'll probably also need to use your own callback function
     * @see the previous snippet
     */
     $settings['callback'] = 'bp_legacy_theme_cover_image';

    return $settings;
}
add_filter( 'bp_before_xprofile_cover_image_settings_parse_args', 'your_theme_cover_image_css', 10, 1 );
add_filter( 'bp_before_groups_cover_image_settings_parse_args', 'your_theme_cover_image_css', 10, 1 );

OK. Let’s say that the issue is the child theme.

What is a child theme ? An empty style.css containing a header information saying to WP, hey here is a child !

Another file can be there: functions.php. This file is empty and will be filled in the time with custom functions.

With BuddyPress, you can have a “buddypress” folder, containing rewamped templates. For example, the profile header template or your member directory page…

As BP template where recently modified (2.7), you have to verify your template customization (if any). See here if it helps:

Template Updates 2.7

If you’re not concerned by templates, you have to check your custom functions or custom JS (if any)

And voila.

If you create a field group called Business Details, you simply add as many fields you want!
Let’s say, you want that users can fill about 5 companies or society. In this case, you need to create a field for each input, in other words 5 fields. And if you need more details for each, you add the fields you need, one by one:

Business 1: [___]

Address 1: [___]

Office 1 hours: [___]

Business 2: [___]

Address 2: [___]

Office 2 hours: [___]

Or if you use a lot of details, you group each businness separately.

For better clarity of the default profile details output, when you have a lot of information to display, is to use this very handy plugin: buddypress-profile-tabs

@jeffwilliams-1,
@pare81,

did you respect the size instruction ? Sizes are theme dependant and vary from one install to another.
When it comes to image issues under BP, you’ll need to test your install without any plugin and only a Twenty theme active (never another one) as first and check if you can upload medias.
If OK, you activate BP and check again.

You may also verify that the attachment folder exist and has eventually the correct write rights on the server: wp-content/uploads/buddypress/members/USER_ID/cover-image/ Similar path may exist for groups, which use /groups/GROUP_ID/ instead of /members/USER_ID/

If all is OK with Twenty, WP and BP, you can activate your plugins, one by one and testing after each. If still OK, you activate or install the definitive theme.

If things went wrong at this stage, you can be sure there is an issue with YOU or the theme.

You because you have omit a setting or did a wrong setting, or the theme, because all was ok while using a Twenty…

Hi Guys,

same Problem on my site? I use wordpress and buddypress latest Versions and latest Version of generatepress theme. I Use my Theme as Childtheme and only on Child-theme the porblem is there. On parent theme all is fine.

Is there an Info to this Point?

Thanks and regards
Patrick

Have you tried switching momentarily to a WP theme, like 2016?

If you have and the issue still persists..
You can open a bug report here.
Be sure to include your versions of WP and BP.

Hello, @shanebp

Yes. I checked my cookies, and if I clear them, the notification goes away. If I trigger another notification by clicking the “leave group” button on the BuddyPress group page, the notification appears and gets stuck on the header of every page again. This happens on every browser I’ve tried.

Posting Activity from Plugins

Scroll down to function bp_dont_save_minis. It’s an example to block saving types of activity. Only do this if you never want these items. Otherwise you’d want to filter out. Better for site speed to not save so a choice is up to you.

oEmbed is supported by BuddyPress but maybe the embed_oembed_html WP filter isn’t used?

Can you open a Trac ticket for this?

This one is already front end enabled and I would have thought the dev’s would maybe like to make this feature a part of their plugin?

Do you mean that any use case should be precisely documented or would examples be enough, finally ? 🙂

Wordings can be changed in the language file.
Slugs can be changed by function.

As you use a plugin, you may check inside his code and files to accomplish your customization. Or search or ask for help on his support.

BuddyPress comes with his own form on xprofile component.

In 99% of cases, you haven’t to use an external form plugin. For the remaining 1%, you need good php knowledge to accomplish some custom work.

Everything you need to know about xprofile fields is explained here:
