Site language is the reference. Go to Settings > General and choose your site language.
If you use es_AR, you should use buddypress-es_AR.mo
If you use es_ES, you should use buddypress-es_ES.mo
and so on…
At each update, language files are also updated. This means that if you use bp-es_VE and the site is declared as using es_AR, your bp file will be updated to es_AR and BP will use this one instead bp-es_VE.
It would be better you use same language for site and plugins. What you can do, is to rename es_VE to buddypress-es_AR.po/mo. You need also to modify accordingly the header information in the po file. To do that you need to use poEdit to compile it to mo and get the correct header in it.
Note also that BP translation should be installed in wp-content/languages/plugins/buddypress-xx_XX.mo
Great, thank you both.
I’ve done all of this:
Languages and Translations
I’ve created the wp-content>languages>buddypress folder and pasted there the buddypress-es_VE.mo and .po.
Now, how can i activate that buddypress languaje from the adminCP.
Note: My wordpress is in es_AR and the buddypress languaje i found is es_VE.
They are pretty much the same language, but the es_AR BP translation is about 5% in the contrib. page so i opted for download the es_VE.
Thank you.
there is also a bp-notification folder, where you can find all files related to notification. You can read them to check the used logic. Code is widely commented.
If you need quick functions informations, you can also visit this site (link goes to “notification” search result), who present a detailed BP code.
Check also your plugins language files. On your menu they’re 2 items (projects & docs) which are not part of BuddyPress.
check the buddypress members default widget
Hi @damian12,

At the bottom of the page, you’ll see the topic editor.
As you’re new here, please read here first.
There is also documentation on hand where you can find a lot of information about BP settings and other cool stuff.
Hi,
Friends i am working for adding custom notifications to buddy-press.
I am unable to find whats logic behind marking notification as read when user has clicked the notification link.
Will you guys please let me know which function buddy-press calls when correspondent link for notification is clicked.
Any help will be appreciable.
Thanks.
Hi all
So I’ve been doing some further trouble shooting on this one and it’s just… odd.
The issue doesn’t seem to be with just buddypress in isolation. It appears to be related to (whatever happens or changes) when buddypress and bbpress are activated at the same time.
So, I created a brand new install of WordPress and installed WP job manager
Within WP job manager I have the “allow account creation’ setting enabled when submitting a job listing
With buddy press installed and enabled by itself I can enter and preview a new job listing without any issues.
With bbpress installed and enabled (and buddypress disabled) I can enter and preview a new job listing without any issues.
With buddypress + bbpress enabled at the same time, previewing a job posting takes me to a 404 page not found error message
The interesting thing is.
If I leave Buddypress and bbpress enabled but I disable “allow account creation” when submitting a new job listing in WP job manager. The job preview step works just fine.
So I guess from I’ve been able to ascertain that it is the WP job manager account creation step which is conflicting with ‘something’ that changes on the back end when both buddypress and bbpress are enabled at the same time.
I have no idea what might change on the backend when bbpress and buddypress are enabled from an account registration perspective so at this point I’m stumped.
Does anyone have any ideas where I might be able to look next?
Thanks
Mark
buddypress.org is open source so feel free to check out the theme’s code.

Hi Ben,
You are correct that it’s best to leave the bp stylesheet in place so that you get updates to that file. You can add a custom stylesheet, though, and increase the selector power of the rule, so that it overrides the bp.css rule, like .site #buddypress #item-body { border-left: none; }
Here’s the basic concept.

You say nothing about how the administrator will give a score/badge!
Perhaps you could use one of these plugins ?

Hello, I’m using buddypress for my social networking site. But I want a restriction mode on my social site. basically there is paid membership system, I want to restrict the username and Full Name filed by viewing by other members. I mean can I add some random user name and hide the original member’s username and Full name from all user?
Hi Guys
So this is my situation, I am the buddypress admin for a friends site and I want to control a specific task for user profiles. The task is I need to add a field to a user profile after they have signed up. The user will not be able to edit this field within their profile though they can see the field. This will be done to each and every user profile. Please assist.
For a recruitment site, can buddy press have different account types for employers and employees?
Yes. Check out Member Types:
Member Types
Hey @danbp and thanks for your reply.
Yes I did, I’m having some dialogue with the WP job manager folks now (via their paid channels as I purchased a few of their premium add-ons also) but as their product was working fine (and I’ve been running it with no issues) until I switched buddypress on then they said that I should contact buddypress first.
I’ll have a play with the debugging option to see if this identifies anything ‘odd’ although to be honest I’m not 100% sure what I’m looking for.
Appreciate your pointers anyway Dan. Very much appreciated.
You could be using the thumb sized avatar. Check your theme to make sure the full sized image is being used. bp_core_fetch_avatar() is the function used by BuddyPress to display avatars but there’s also get_avatar() so check for that too (it’s a WordPress function).
@gettingdownunder,
did you asked on WP Job Manager support forum ? If you didn’t receive any response here, it’s probably because you’re on a BuddyPress forum.
Untill somebody use the same plugin with BP and know also the same issue, it’s better to ask first the authors of the plugin you try to integrate to BP.
Meanwhile, have you made some tests and tried to debug your install ?
I am trying to assign a default member type when users register from a non-buddypress registration form. This is the action I’m adding:
add_action( 'user_register', 'default_member_type', 10, 1 );
function default_member_type( $user_id ) {
if ( ! bp_get_member_type($user_id) ) {
bp_set_member_type( $user_id, 'member' );
}
}
…and the member type gets set at the end of the function ( the bp_set_member_type() does set the member type ) but when the user gets dropped into the edit profile screen, the member type is unfilled / unselected. Little help?
Thank you guys,
I deactivated all the plugins, and changed the theme to Twenty, then activated all the buddypress components, Now it works Perfectly FINE!!!! Now again switched back to Venedor theme !!! Happy coding Ninjas!! 🙂
Thanks @danbp
ok so im on the newest wordpress and buddypress.
ive had a look through the following posts and pages:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/adding-new-order-by-on-members-loop/
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/creating-a-new-order-by-filter-in-groups-loop-with-custom-sql/
Add custom filters to loops and enjoy them within your plugin
Im trying to make ‘Order By’ sections that find users who have ticked a specific profile field in their profile. The first thing im confused about is am i editing the..
/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/index.php OR
/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members-loop.php ?
i thought it was member-loop but that last help page suggests index?
Im just not succeeding lol, could you help me please?
Does your theme support buddypress?
Hello, I am using standard Buddypress v. 2.5.3
Wordpress v.4.5.2

The problem I’m running into is that I can use the comment section, but when I click to post a comment, the comment disappears. When reloading the page, the comment is not there. It also doesn’t appear in comments on the back end. I’ve tried to enable manual approval of comments too, to see if they would appear on the back end, however that didn’t work either.
I haven’t tried to change themes, as I’m afraid something on my site may be screwed up when switching back.
I’m not sure what to do. Comments were working a few weeks ago. It may be a plugin conflict error, but I’m not sure how to diagnose that other than disabling my plugins and reactivating them.
Thank you for you help.
