BuddyPress.org

Hi,

try to add your po/mo files into wp-content/laguages/plugins/buddypress-user-blog/…mo, where /buddypress-user-blog should be the exact plugin name and …mo should be the right file name (something like abcd-en_UK.mo)

Check the plugin doc for the correct directory name and the correct file name to use. As it is a premium plugin, it is not possible to give you more information for this as we have no access to the code.

You might also ask for this on the plugin support.

As site admin you can create new users and give same a low strength password. This is basic WP management. You already have a link for this part of the work.
If you have “hundreds” of friends to add it is of course a bit different – meaning it will not be done in 5mn. But it is not to me to tell you how to do this and where to find any knowledge document to achieve it. Codex are made for this – but sorry, i can’t sytematically lead any question asked on this forum to the appropriate page. My brain is not a codex summary ! Hope you understand. 😉

You have to search on WP Codex and eventually on BP Codex. Essentially because of the phone number field, which is a custom field. You can do that with or without BP – and that’s why i said it’s not a BP question.

If you want to take the BP route, you might check the code from BP Default Data, to understand how this plugin insert fake content to BuddyPress.

Did you try this? https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-terms-and-conditions-for-buddypress/

Does the server has the minimum requirements to run WP and BP ?
What about the htaccess file ? When you moved the site directory, have you regenerate this file ?

About blank pages

Hi,

this question is not related to BuddyPress.
You have several options, from simple to overcomplicated.

1) If you have only a few friends to add, you can do that manually from dashboard. You need also a phone field in xprofile.
2) If you have hundreds, you need to write or generate a csv file and import them via phpmyadmin or any msql command line…

All this is explained on WP Codex.

Sorry for the outdated trick.
bp_is_profile_edit is deprecated in favor of bp_is_user_profile_edit.

Check for the outdated fn in the plugin mentionned in the error msg.
In case of, here a tutorial with more options.

If you inspect the generated markup you will see that the loop list elements will have a members type class rendered if user has a type you can then use those to effect styling on.

In the member single screens it’s a little trickier you do have the ability to use the template hierarchy to set a template for a user type (please refer to the codex for instruction) otherwise for the moment you would need to modify the home.php template to add this yourself something like:

<?php $user_type = bp_get_member_type( bp_displayed_user_id() ); ?>

<div id="buddypress" class="<?php echo esc_attr( $user_type ); ?>">

First line is an addition the second you need to modify the existing element to add the class and php – all in a child copy of the home.php template naturally.
We will update buddpress core to add a class to the body elements for 2.8 as this would be useful and styling could be effected on that too so if you would rather wait for 2.8…

Hey there,

I’m no expert, just a buddypress user like you, but you should precise what you want to change and where, for people to understand and help you.
What element should have a different color? And where? On the members directory? In profiles?everywhere? etc
Good luck

I remember looking at Mailgun before when someone asked about it. Looking at its code very quickly, it has an option to send via its API or not. You’ll need to disable its “useAPI” option (otherwise, it redeclares the wp_mail function, which will force BuddyPress to send plain-text only emails). Another consequence of doing this is that Mailgun configures PHPMailer to send via SMTP, and some web hosts/servers block external SMTP requests.

If that has no affect, I think you’re going to have to do debugging inside the bp_send_email function. Specifically, I’d start looking at the return value of this line: $status = $delivery->bp_email( $email );

With luck, PHPMailer will give you an error message with some clues in.

> I have fixed the error I was getting of email_missing by adding information into the taxonomy tables manually. There is no documentation about this which is odd.

I don’t think it’s explicitly documented outside of the PHP – but it is hard to find, at the best of time – but this guide https://codex.buddypress.org/emails/custom-emails/ does mention it uses a custom taxonomy, so I wouldn’t call it “undocumented”. “Very badly documented”, maybe 😀

Assuming everything is working as it is, I don’t know why it would show more users than you have, either. Have you tried going to Tools > BuddyPress, and running “Repair total members count” as a workaround for now?
