BuddyPress.org

I’m new and getting really frustrated. I have BuddyPress and WooCommerce installed in WP with extended profiles enabled. Part of the site is open to the public whereas a large part needs to be restricted to registered members AFTER admin approval. I need potential members to utilize front-end registration and only access front-end pages/posts. I’ve got that working with plugins.

I just can’t get the registration process figured out so that admin’s moderate new users before they access the restricted areas. I have tried several plug-ins. First of all, I don’t know if I’m looking for a WP plugin or a BP plugin. I assumed a WP plugin, but it appears that BP controls the defaults.

Any help? Please!

Posts that I publish on my site are generating two different URLs. There is the correct URL, which appears in spots like the “recently published” section of my site. But in the Buddypress activity feed, a different URL shows up. Instead of http://www.XXXX.net, the URL in the activity feed is http://www.XXXX.news. I own both domains, but everything should be .net, not .news. Can someone help me figure this out and how I can fix it? This is just for posts. When forum topics are published, the URL in the activity feed is correct.

Hi, I am new on this, I am using a custom theme on wordpress that I did. I would like to have a register page for users but I am not sure if I can do this in similar way of WordPress functions (like the_content(), the_excerpt(), comments_template() … etc). Thanks in advance, I use BuddyPress 2.5.1 and wordpress 4.4.2

Hi,

I’ve got a website based on Buddypress & a theme called Sweetdate. When someone registers, they enter their profile & extended profile (I am a man, looking for a woman, between age… & age…) etc. If they go to the Members page they can see a list of all other members (demo page http://themeforest.net/item/sweet-date-more-than-a-wordpress-dating-theme/full_screen_preview/4994573). However, I want the search fields at the top of the page (I am a man, looking for, etc.) to be pre-populated with whatever values from the profile/extended profile the member chose when they registered, and then a search made automatically when the page first loads, so that the search results are immediately relevant to that user. Would this be difficult to do?

Many thanks

Hello all,

I’ve been creeping around these forums for a few days, but I’m unable to find a post that explains what I’m looking for in any decent detail.

I’m trying to remove one of the xprofile fields from the edit page. My end goal is to limit what fields may be modified by the user, based on their membership level using s2membership. I feel if I can figure out how to hide one field, I’ll be able to go from there.

Now I have found a few posts describing this same action, but the responses seem very vague. What I’ve been trying to do is modify the edit.php file in the “wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/members/single/profile” directory. I realize that modifying the core files is not the best practice, and this will be replaced with the next buddypress update, but I also have not found a detailed explanation on the proper way to edit these files, so I’m sticking with this for the moment just to see if I can get it working.

I see there is a while loop in this file, and it looks like it iterates for each element in an array containing all of the profile fields. Each iteration grabs the fields type as a string, and compares it to a list of valid options. When a match is found, it performs some html/php magic, and adds a field on the screen to be modified. (php and html are new to me. I am familiar with c++, java, and c#)

modified snippet from file:

<?php while ( bp_profile_fields() ) : bp_the_profile_field(); ?>		

     <div<?php bp_field_css_class( 'editfield' ); ?>>

          <?php if ( 'textbox' == bp_get_the_profile_field_type() ) : ?>

              *html/php magic*

          <?php endif; ?>
     </div>

<?php endwhile; ?>

No matter what edits I make to this file, it does not seem to change anything.

Any information would be great, and I appreciate your time. Thank you.
