BuddyPress.org

Hello All,

I am also facing the same problem with bp_verify_nonce_request() function.

It proper works on my Localhost but on my live server its not working properly

In File : bp-members-screen.php file
} elseif ( isset( $_POST[‘signup_submit’] ) && bp_verify_nonce_request( ‘bp_new_signup’ ) ) {

this will not work.. but if i will replace the above code with the below code then it will work

Below code will work properly
} elseif ( isset( $_POST[‘signup_submit’] ) || bp_verify_nonce_request( ‘bp_new_signup’ ) ) {

I know that if i will make changes in Buddypress core files then after update my changes will be lost.

Is any Hook are available so that i can use in my functions.php file.
Please help me someone. Its urgent and i want to complete my project as soon as possible.

Thanks

Yes. You can use bp_parse_args() for that. See the Using bp_parse_args() to filter BuddyPress template loops article for more info.

I can view anyones messages when logged out.

And you’re definitely talking about what BuddyPress refers to as private messages?

Can you try again after disabling all plugins, reverting to TwentyFifteen and removing all custom code? If you still get to see private messages when logged out then that shouldn’t be happening.

I can view anyones messages when logged out. If I log in I think it shows me my own messages, not sure, the main issue is that someone could easily harvest every single message from a buddypress site. Users are not tech savy and will presume that correspondence is relatively secure so there may be sensitive data stored. Or at worst it would give enough information for an attacker to social engineer the additional data they need.

With standard buddypress (no modifications) you can freely view anyone’s messages without even logging in

That shouldn’t be the case for all users. Only users with admin capabilities should be able to do that. Are you able to see people’s private messages when logged in as a subscriber? If so, that’s a bug

With standard buddypress (no modifications) you can freely view anyone’s messages without even logging in. Personally I think that is not very good security/privacy, whatever you want to call it.

I made a ticket as I don’t think that “private messages” should be publicly viewable
(https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6504#ticket)

What privacy/security checks would you recommend for people who don’t want users private data publicly viewable?

@henrywright How would you do the security check? If I follow current way buddypress does things with loading the template part for the tab any logged out user can just modify the javascript and get into any profile page they like. It’s first time I’ve done this so appreciate the advice.

what harm could come from a visit to a simple profile tab?

You could see hidden data that user did not want displayed. I believe if you hold data and say it is private then you should attempt to secure it. You could also view their messages and private groups.

The thing I am struggling to understand is how buddypress functions work on the post request. I wrote some test code and data is correctly populated from displayed user. Does buddypress read a referrer value somewhere on every ajax post?

May not be the best way, but try:

function add_group_tab() {

	if ( class_exists( 'BP_Group_Extension' ) ) :
	
		class members_nav_tab_in_group extends BP_Group_Extension {
			
			function __construct() {
			
				if( bp_is_group_single() ) {
					
					$bp = buddypress();
					
					$group_id = $bp->groups->current_group->id;
					
					if( $group_id == 1 ) {
					
						$args = array(
						'slug'              => '../../members',
						'name'              => 'Members Directory',
						'nav_item_position' => 105,
						);
						
						parent::init( $args );
					}
				}
			}
		}
	
	bp_register_group_extension( 'members_nav_tab_in_group' );
	
	endif;

}
add_action( 'bp_loaded', 'add_group_tab' );

The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Activate, Register. Repair

Those pages are not created automatically. When you get this error message, you have to create the pages manually first.

Go back to bp settings > pages tab and allocate the new pages to the respective component. Save.

You have also to set pretty permalinks to something other thant “by default”. Save.

Now BP has his page assigned and should work.

About the missing button.
Clear your browser cache.
If you use a cache plugin, clear it.
Go to wp-config.php and activate debug mode at the end of the file.

Deactivate all plugins except BP and activate one of WP’s theme (2015, 2014 or 2013…)

See if you get some error message and correct the errors (if exist).

If after tracking/repairing errors, the button is still not showing, deactivate buddypress, delete it and upload a fresh copy of BuddyPress to your site. Sometimes files can be corrupted and need to be replaced. No worry, this will not affect any data in your DB.

If still nothing, check that your host plan has the required php version to be used with WP and BP: at least 5.2.4

Hi @manakio2k,

you could try to just modify the template to get alphabetical as first sort option, instead of the default Last active.

Create a child-theme first, add a folder called buddypress. In this folder add members folder and in that folder add a copy of index.php which is in bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/index.php

Around line 78, change the options order to get this:

<select id="members-order-by">
	<?php if ( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) ) : ?>
		<option value="alphabetical"><?php _e( 'Alphabetical', 'buddypress' ); ?></option>
	<?php endif; ?>
		<option value="active"><?php _e( 'Last Active', 'buddypress' ); ?></option>
		<option value="newest"><?php _e( 'Newest Registered', 'buddypress' ); ?></option>

Now, members directory is sorted alphabetically by default.

now it does nothing.

So you can see it.
That means that ‘buddypress/bp-members/bp-members-template.php’ is not inactive.

Your description of the problem is so muddled that suggesting a solution is nigh impossible.

Confirm that the issues are not in your theme. Try switching to a standard theme like WP 2013.

Look at the BP templates for guidance on those issues.
For example:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\register.php

If buddypress/bp-members/bp-members-template.php is ‘inactive’,
how do you know that ‘the member functions to filter’ are not working?

Have you activated all the components?

@shaquana_folks,

do you plan to ask the same question each day ? It’s the fourth time now, and you received many answers in the past 3 days. Or you received erroneous answers or you didn’t understand them or couldn’t find a solution by yourself. That’s life and i’m sorry for you but it’s just a forum here, not a miracle shop.

You say My hosting plan server is iPage (which uses NGINX), running a 5.0 PHP version.

If 5.0 is really the php version, you can’t use WP or BP with this old version as both require at least 5.2 version.

For Nginx server, have you read WP’s codex ?
https://codex.wordpress.org/Nginx
Search for nginx install on wordpress.org brings also several answers…

For paid consultants, post the job to http://jobs.wordpress.net/ or BP Jobs Board.

I think it’s better to give registrants and newbies a break by warning them to not use spaces BEFORE they try first to register instead of frustrating them ‘neener neener’ after they do it wrong (don’t ya think?)
