BuddyPress.org

And what is the problem ? With or without BuddyPress, you login to WordPress. 🙄
Perhaps reading this will help

Register and Activation Pages

Assuming its WP 4.1.1 Multisite and BP 2.1.1

Go to wp-content/plugins/buddypress
Find and use the buddypress.pot file to create (for example, by Poedit
buddypress-hu_HU.po
buddypress-hu_HU.mo
[name the files exactly as above if hu_HU is your language]

1. Create /wp-content/languages/plugins
2. Place these two files there
buddypress-hu_HU.po
buddypress-hu_HU.mo

Refresh, F5 and see your site again.

As stated by the plugin decription:

The JavaScript file “refresh.js” will send every 10 seconds an ajax request to wp-load.php to get the new activities.

If you still have trouble after 10 seconds, you preferably ask about this on the plugin support.
Note also that the plugin is compatible up to: 3.8 / 1.8.1 so it may no more work today !

SPQR !

bp-languages folder doesn’t exist in BP 2.x

If your WP use hungarian language, when you install BP, the BuddyPress translation comes automatically from translate-wordpress.org into wp-content/languages/plugins/, which contains also by default the askimet translation.

Also, php gettext use the compiled mo format to show a translation. The po file is only used to translate.

Much more about translation in this topic.

Do you recommend I create text/content and install a form plug-in for my ‘register’ page associated with the BPress first before working on adding Member Profile Fields?

@dleit please do not install any form plugin for your “Register” page. Leave it blank as BuddyPress will dynamically add the necessary forms. What you need to do is set up the profile fields. Remember that whatever field you add in the first group of the profile field will appear on the right side of the Reigstration form.

It just doesn’t seem like it will solve the “user registration is currently not allowed” issue.

After you add the member profile fields/group(s) you want for your community, I suggest going to the admin menu Settings > General and Allow Registrations. BP Codex is your friend https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/register-and-activation-pages/

@gnasralla WP/BP versions?

Multisite User Management Plugin

Is the issue happening for the users you added through this plugin? How about for those which registered the regular route or you (admin)?

I opened a new browser window and I pasted that link and I changed http:// to https:// and it worked fine!

Could be that you have not properly configured your http-server software. I would suggest you contact support of your hosting provider to help as they would know what’s required for your plan/package much better than we at the support forums would.

The activity tab cannot be removed actually, but you can hide it using CSS display:none;.

Read also this tread:

Profile menu visibility

Comments are of ‘discussion’ AND often the comment being replied to is part of a long discussion which you might want to familiarize yourself with before replying to a comment to. Each of my pages averages 50 comments AND every 5th comment is sometimes equivalent of one or more A4 pages in length (we have proper discussions).

That is great indeed. What is your site? Typical social nets have small comments these days which is unfortunate ( courtesy FB and Twitter)
However, Buddypress stream does show full comments ( read more etc) and ‘show all comments’ etc so all comments can be read in the stream itself – I think it works that way for me. Is it different for you ? Then there are the Activity filters like ‘Show all’ ‘Show comments only’ etc which are of some help I guess.

Replies to my replies or Replies to my post is something not in the Activity filter – I think, but would have been nice to have.

Thanks

If that be the case, may be the most appropriate thing will be to post your problem here : https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket

Mention the WP, BP versions you use, your theme, settings etc
Steps to reproduce your problem
Any site where this problem can be see / tested

Thanks.

PS : Submitting your problem in the above link may or may not generate any corrective response, in that case maybe you have too look more around the net unless some mods/devs here get you the actual help or actual code.

I have this Buddypress settings enabled
Blog & Forum Comments – Allow activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts

Does any of these plugins help ?
wordpress.org/plugins/bwp-recent-comments/
wordpress.org/support/plugin/get-recent-comments
wordpress.org/plugins/get-all-comments-widget/
Thanks

I created a page for each component in this plug-in and I don’t know what to do next.

@dleit It depends. You could start adding Member Profile Fields and/or Create Groups and/or install Group and/or Sitewide Forums if you need forums.

btw, spammers have been removed 🙂

FYI BP_MEMBERS_SLUG is deprecated (read line 38)
and about the member slug in groups read here https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6001

Be warned that altering core files is not recommended and not best practice, as you will loose your changes at next BP update.

Recently introduced function bp_parse_args allows since 2.0 to modify easely your templates. Faster and lighter than a plugin.

Using bp_parse_args() to filter BuddyPress template loops

As example, show only updates on the SWA (add snippet to bp-custom.php or child-theme functions.php)

function make_swa_show_notice_only( $retval ) {	
	
	if ( bp_is_page( 'activity' ) ) {
	$retval['action'] = 'activity_update';					
	}
	
	return $retval;
	
	}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'make_swa_show_notice_only' );

@aires4411,

I would like to do is add some content or notice on that same page.

There’re over 15 action hooks on the register template (bp-legacy/buddypress/members/register.php)

If your goal is to add a notice or even a video, a welcome message or some other stuff, you can use these hooks ! Without any plugin or template alteration.

Write a function containing your custom content and add it to the hook.

For example, a welcome message above the register form:

function aires_msg() {
echo '<p>Hello World !</p>';
}
add_action( 'bp_before_register_page', 'aires_msg' );

https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/customizing/changing-internal-configuration-settings/ says “The references to slug Constants are deprecated, this section requires updating.”

I have no idea when that will be updated. Thanks.

PS : If this was an absolute necessity for me maybe I would have tried creating a wordpress page named “fans” or whatever, and inserted the Groups page as an iframe in the content of that page. That way, the url would probably show as desired.

This is really an annoying problem. I cannot see many of my older posts. If this issue is not getting corrected with some urgent love due to lack of free time by devs , is it impossible to add a sticky to this forum to keep copies of our own post for future reference OR increase the number of posts per page so that pagination is not needed at least for the first 50 or 100 items?

There is some workaround which I faintly remember by typing some ?=2 or something but that is not the way things should go.

There has been many forum posts as well as tickets on this. No resolution. So @djsteveb resubmitting may be marked duplicate and closed promptly. Thanks.

One such ticket : https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5808#ticket

And it seems, the two shall never meet ……

http://stackideas.com/forums/switched-from-joomla-to-wordpress-after-jreviews-port-wish-stackideas-would-consider-porting-easysocial-the-same-way

BTW @statusselect, have you been able to use https://www.corephp.com/joomla-products/wordpress-for-joomla with Easysocial with Likes/Favs comment sync between the two – stream to blog, blog to stream

The two things lacking in BP after I saw Easysocial in some details is the
– Sharebox – it comes with nice at mention and hashtag ( hashtag plugin in BP is not Unicode compliant)
– Album and photo – nicely built into core – something not in BP’s agenda with their own reasoning.

The Sharebox which Easysocial uses can be instantly done in BP by someone who has some coding skills and BP love using the plugins avaialble – buddypress activity plus, buddypress privacy, bp checkins, Event Manager and a Media plugin. But then ….

Easysocial theme is responsive in a fantastic way and similar BP theme like the Boss of Buddyboss costs $100+ while Easysocial, without the bbundle is $90 – so this may be another attractive point for those who need Social more than multiuser blogging. Easysocial is lesser known till now and probably they do not have a favorable stance towards WP.

And the two shall never meet ….
People shall choose whatever they want, and BP devs and debvelopment will follow the path that suits them best. One thing is true, if BP was something like Jetpack, things would have evolved faster, imho

Thanks.

Hey @djsteveb

You should open a Trac ticket for this.

Just got this error message from my AG Custom Admin plugin. It references the “mention” javascript:
