BuddyPress.org

If you go to appearance > menu and click screen options in the upper right corner then check the buddypress option from the list of checkboxes it will add buddypress specific menu for profile, login, logout and others.

This is a bug with bbPress, not BuddyPress.

See the following ticket with a fix attached to it:
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2974

I’m not sure there is a plugin that covers both the WordPress and BuddyPress new member moderation. I remember I asked the BP Registrations Options developer for it to include moderation of the WordPress Access but he said it was outside of the remit of the plugin.

This bug still exist actually, despite tickets #5354 (3 years old) #5808(2 years) #6854 (9 mounth).

Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to BuddyPress.org

Sounds like milestone BuddyPress.org is stone (hey Miles), devastated, completely in the wind, out of interest… Sucks.

I hope so ! FYI, we all here learned by making mistakes, errors and asking around 🙂 :

@kgrondell,

… and finally, the right way to achieve this is explained here:

Hi,
you do it wrong and it is much more simple to make customization by reading the codex.

The only thing you have to do on the custom template ( i assume you already have the template) is to create a custom member loop. To fecth the correct data to show and how to do that is explained in details here (see Code Examples):

Members Loop

You posted another question on Buddypress Profile Search support, where it appears that you try to remove the member search form.

In regard of the BuddyPress support forum, you use at least two third party plugins aside BP and perhaps proceeded to template customization !

You have to isolate the culprit: one of your plugins or your theme customization. BuddyPress is not concerned. Sorry.

Hi,

try this (add to bp-custom.php):

function add_profiles_link_to_page(){

	if ( bp_is_profile_component() || bp_is_user() ) {

	// allow link to appear only to loggedin user
	/*if ( !is_user_logged_in() )
		return false; */

	// tabed internal link : /internal link/page name/
	//$link =  bp_get_root_domain() . '/book/';

	// tabed external link
	$link =  "https://www.amazon.com/";
	
	?>
		<li><a href="<?php echo $link; ?>"><?php printf( 'My Books' ); ?></a></li>
	<?php  
	}
}
add_action( 'bp_member_options_nav', 'add_profiles_link_to_page' );

@djpaul ‘s advice is wise !
But you could try following which doesn’t compromise your security and will avoid the sky falling on your head !

First remove the filter hack, we don’t need it.

Then built your drop-down list and add only the site name instead the whole URL.

For example,
– create a new field
– call it Test drop down
– enforce visibility
– disallow clickable
– add some options: buddypress.org, wordpress.org
– save
Go to your profile > edit and choose buddypress.org. Save.
You see now buddypress.org on your profile

Now we have to make this text clickable and linked to bp.org

For this, you can use this snippet, placed in bp-custom.php

function bpfr_set_checkbox_output( $field_value ) {

// ensure xprofile is activated
if ( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) )

// call the field
$bp_this_field_name = bp_get_the_profile_field_name();

	// field name (case sensitive)
	if( $bp_this_field_name == 'Test drop down' ) {	
	// here we change site name to url
		$field_value = str_replace('buddypress.org' ,'http://buddypress.org', $field_value);	
                $field_value = str_replace('wordpress.org' ,'http://wordpress.org', $field_value);			
	}

	// fire the result!
	return $field_value;
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'bpfr_set_checkbox_output' );
