BuddyPress.org

New Test Topic here – perhaps use it as the basis for a bug report re any problems for mods?

Hi,

BuddyPress use templates to show his stuff.
The registration is part of WP and BP’s xprofile component add only some additionnal fields to the original register form.

If you open a template file you will see a lot of code and many lines starting by do_action( ‘something’ );

These files are all stored in bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/

Now you have already the where and the what. here’s the how.

To show some text on the register page you have two options:
1) altering the whole template file bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/register.php
2) add what you want by using an action hook

The second method is the fasted and the easiest. You just need to write a function and you’re done.

function valeriemanne() {
   echo 'Here i am !';
}
add_action( 'bp_before_register_page', 'valeriemanne' );

Add this to your child theme functions.php file or into bp-custom.php

Hi,

Is there any easier way

this question may be answered if you provide first the complicated way !

if you want to use BuddyPress, you need a page for each active component. These page are there essentially for internal purpose and are working as placeholder or if you prefer, as permalink targets. Even if you use custom registration or pwd handling, you need them. What hapen in the template (ie. register.php) is to you, but you need to use a page slug.

Members is mandatory and is the only page you shouldn’t never delete.

This may of may not be of help:

The Member Toolbar is the BuddyPress drop down menu, do you mean the tabs on the profile page? There’s lots of discussions about changing those tabs

Adding Your Plugin’s Link to the BuddyPress Member Toolbar Menu

The errors on the homepage indicate that there are issues with the BP Profile View plugin and also BuddyPress Profile Tabs, I think the first thing I would do is remove these two plugins.

If you do not have access to Dashboard>>Plugins then you would need to FTP to your host and deleted their directories from the wp-content/plugins directory.

No idea if that would fix your issue with login in though but its the most obvious error.

Think this was the plugin Hugo was thinking of, it’s not been updated in 4 years though.

Try it with only BuddyPress running, deactivate all other plugins. Also, switch to the 2016 theme. BuddyPress should then work.
