    cool he will probs read this when hes online, this is the thing with buddypress, i just didnt understand when i first came to these forums a few years ago even though i had been comming longer without registering, I myself had shared hosting and thought yippee i have found a plugin that i was looking for and installed it, then after messing around with buddypress it dawned on me that shared hosting just was not gonna cut the ice with buddypress let alone wordpress for a serious install.

    I then decided to delve into the world of dedicated/vps servers. I am by no means an expert in this world yet but i believe from my own experience that it is a very daunting task moving to these kind of setups at first, once you get the basics of initial setup and general security right its then time to tweak everything for future proofing and scaling and performance tweaking if your serious about the future of your website, unless your willing to pay ALOT of cash out to people who can do his for you full time.

    This is why i sort of pushed my buddypress websites design back in favour of looking into all this. I think this is one of the biggest points concerning every website build and believe that not enough info is out there to make people understand just how important all this is to succeed with their websites, alot of people see these one click easy installs and adverts off companys telling them to come build your website with us its easy then see wordpress installed and think yippe look at my new website and what it can do, until of course they then get popular crash and burn then fail and give up because they just dont understand the reality involved in pushing forward a scalable environment. This is why i believe people doing a massive project such as buddypress should really be able to share this info with each other from nivice users to experts in this field.

    @henrywright who is the best person to ask on these forums to add a new section?

    I would love to see a server configuration and hardware setups section for buddypress in these forums, i have mentioned this before.

    It could be a specific place for people to share all kinds of server configuration settings and tips and server scalability issues etc along with initial setup advice to.

    I mean i would be willing to post a few server tips and tricks i have learnt along the way into this section and maybe write a few guides etc for server lockdown and shh hardening tips etc, even though i am still learning alot of server administration tasks (because the scope is vast )it would be good to have a place for vps and dedicated server users to all have a chat about issues and setups etc for buddypress. I do realise as a rule that there are plenty of server setup and config info all over the web on other forums etc and in articles but hey would it not be great for users of buddypress to have a tips and help section for this to? this would let users share their experiences with setups running with buddypress installs specifically and could also cover things like server level caching php caching and many other tweaks needed to run at optimum performance. lets be real here buddypress is not designed to run very well on shared hosting (not for very long anyhows to you bottleneck yourself) and i think this would be good info for people making the leap to other setups.

    Using the plugin above, I added the ‘members’ and ‘groups’ pages to the BuddyPanel (Boss theme) and only display them to users that are logged in.

    I want people who are logged in to have an easy way to find all available groups, as well as the members of the site.

    I’m new to using BuddyPress. Thanks for your assistance! I’m think I’m set for now. 🙂

    2. How would I add a extra tab in a group that I can link to a URL?

    You need to use the Group Extension API

    Group Extension API

    Since you only want it for one group, you need to check for that group id:

    if( bp_get_group_id() == 2 )
       bp_register_group_extension( 'Your_Group_Extension_Name' );

    If you want to rename reference to the Forums everywhere you’ll probably need to do that with a language file: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/customizing/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

    Did the stack exchange link help with the additional link you were trying to add?

    @shanebp Thanks for the reply.

    […]in any relational table, if an item is assigned to a group ID and that group ID no longer exists in the table that holds group IDs, then that data will not be displayed, ie. orphaned.

    I deleted through the admin panel so I am not sure what was deleted, that was what I meant by asking if is was standard behaviour. Possibly what I should have said is; when a user deletes a group by using the ‘bp-profile-setup’ page to click on the ‘delete group’ button, is buddypresses default behaviour to just drop the group and leave the profile data in the table or does it also iteratively remove the profile fields?

    I can see the reason why you would want to leave the data in the table (and also reasons why you wouldn’t). I had a quick look at the code but I am not familiar enough with it yet to pinpoint the exact code block.

    If fields are not deleted then I guess any fields directly referenced would still be visiable on the site. That may be misleading to user as they may assume deleting a group would also remove fields. However you wouldn’t want a group to be deleted by accident and then a large amount of data be lost. I would guess a system of deleting the group and then updating each profile field to explicitly notify calling functions that their parent has been deleted would be appropriate in the circumstance.

    I have used a relational database before but I am unfamiliar with the logic employed by buddypress to interact with it.

    The behaviour I was was getting was weird. When I deleted a group and created it again no fields were showing. Then when I added a field, it had a value immediately after creating so something weird was going on so I thought I would ask to see if you knew if the profile data gets deleted when a user clicks delete group in admin panel.

    I am starting again now so will pay closer attention to all data as it goes into fresh tables but sometimes it is harder to see to absence of data compared to the addition of new data.

    Why? BP will always create a Base group.

    I am running a multisite where individual user blogs can create their own fields (https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/guides/segregated-x-profile-fields-for-multisite/).

    As the article says:

    This code will not create dummy content, so for every new site you will need to create a Profile Fields group and add profile fields to it manually.

    When I create new site there are no field groups made at all which I assumed is what it was talking about. Also I wanted to have a default set of groups but allow subsite to edit them. If they want to get default groups back they can just delete all their groups and default will be restored. I could add a separate button for that but I just figured I’d do it like this, no particular reason, I am still in early stages of project.

    I think there were other errors at play so starting from scratch with a little more understanding will hopefully enlighten me. I will be duplicating tables this time instead of using meta table.

    Thanks for the reply @shanebp!

    I see…do you have any ideas as to what could be causing this? If it’s something on my local machine that’s causing the issue, no biggie. But the site launches in a little less than two weeks so if it’s something I have in my code then that’s a problem.

    I saw on another thread someone suggested using a register.php template from an older version of BuddyPress, but that was posted for BP 1.8 I believe. Would that be a good idea to try or would that just cause problems?

    Yes, you need to install bbPress in order to have forum functionality within BuddyPress groups.

    In reply to: Problem with CKEditor

    I am seeing this as well..

    TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating ‘window.tinyMCE.activeEditor.contentDocument.activeElement’)

    This is in bp-activity/js/mentions.js

    I’m not terribly familiar with these Editor modification, but looks like BuddyPress is doing some tinyMCE specific stuff… Could this be done in an editor-agnostic way?

    @dono12 – I have split your post into a separate thread.

    About the “Starred” feature, do you mean the star private messages feature that you can access under “Messages > Starred”? If not, then this isn’t related to any change in BuddyPress 2.3.0.

    Your issue doesn’t sound like it is related to the Messages component, so can you clarify?

    @jturet – You can make this corresponding change to /buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-catchuri.php for now until v2.3.1 is released:

    There is a BP function for getting the ids of the groups for which you’re an admin: get_is_admin_of

    You could use it like this:

    function my_group_admin_ids() {
    	
        $my_group_ids = BP_Groups_Member::get_is_admin_of( 1 ); //if your id = 1
    	
        foreach( $my_group_ids['groups'] as $group ) {
    	
    	$link = bp_get_group_permalink( $group );
    	
    	echo '<a href="' . $link .'">' . $group->name . '</a><br/>';
    	
        }
    }
    add_action( 'bp_before_directory_groups', 'my_group_admin_ids');

    If you want to create a custom tab to hold that info, you need to create a new li element in a template overload of this file:
    \bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\groups\index.php

    Okay @henrywright, I’ll check about that error message with that bbPress plugin through their forum.

    So I did what you recommended and turned off all the plugins (including the bbPress plugin) where I only have the BuddyPress plugin activated, with me still using the TwentyFifteen theme, went ahead and filled out the registration form once more, and it still took me right back to that registration page with my same information filled out that I did but left the password boxes empty and this is all still showing up each time the page loads up instead of creating the new user profile or redirecting me somewhere else.

    @henrywright

    So as I deactivated all the plugins (except the BuddyPress and bbPress plugin) I noticed this error message from my Dashboard just now about the bbPress plug in. Could that be the one that causing the registration page to not work?

    Hello @henrywright

    Thank you so much for replying back so quickly. And yes, I even tried it with the TwentyFifteen theme (which is currently at the 1.2 version). In addition, I just noticed that my BuddyPress plugin has an upgrade to now 2.3.0 so I went ahead and updated that as well. So when I tried filling out the registration page again, it still did the same thing even with that WP default theme. Any suggestions on why that’s still happening?

    If you just need a quick and dirty approach for yourself to view, you could use the standard group loop to output a loop. See here.

    Then put the following snippet directly after the line: <?php while ( bp_groups() ) : bp_the_group(); ?>

    Snippet:

    <?php
    $args = array(
        'populate_extras' => true,
        'group_id => bp_get_group_id()
    );
    $group = groups_get_group( $args );
    
    if ( ! in_array( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $group->admins ) ) {
        continue;
    }
    ?>

    Notes:

    • I haven’t tested
    • This approach won’t be performant
    • I haven’t considered pagination

    That said, it should get the job done. The alternative is to write some SQL and use the wpdb class.

    Hi @hansvdzwet

    What happens is that when the TemplatesNext Toolkit plugin is active, all and every BuddyPress related link shows a page containing the content of the main/home page.

    Does the problem happen when the plugin is deactivated? If not, then I suggest you contact the plugin author letting them know the details. Hopefully they can issue a fix.

    Hi @butterzeugs,

    Hi @backpackersunion,

    Companion stylesheets were introduced in 2.3. You can read more about them here.

    If they’re not quite to your taste, you can dequeue them. Here’s an example of how to do it:

    function dequeue_bp_twentyfifteen() {
        wp_dequeue_style( 'bp-twentyfifteen' );
    }
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'dequeue_bp_twentyfifteen' );

    Ups, let me answer myself.

    I had this on wp-config.php

    define( ‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true );

    Just remove it and “my problem” solved. Now Network members dont see BuddyPress configs 😉

    My bad 😀

    OMG Thanks mrjarbenne 😀 Now it works. Thanks a lot.

    One thing I don’t understand/like why each member of the Network has now access to the BuddyPress Configs? I would prefer they not touching that. Plus they can also create Activity/Groups/Members Pages on they sites, I don’t like that, I would like all that to be centered on the root domain only, same for registration page and activation page. (Perhaps I activate too many options and I should uncheck one of them?)

    I will add screenshots of the steps I followed so anyone having same issues can see how to get it to work, thanks to mrjarbenne steps 😉
