BuddyPress.org

Did you turn on registration on your WP install? See:

@georgio-1,

The easiest way is to probably just use CSS on the ID of the name you wish to remove and insert into your style.css file:

#id { 
display: none; 
}

(find the ID using your browser’s developer tools).

The other option is to find the file creating the second name using its ID and delete the code creating it. If it’s BuddyPress then copy the file into your child theme first before deleting. If it’s your bp-cover plugin creating it, then the approach with CSS is probably easiest.

Hi,

I want to send html email, but it always sending Plain text email content.
Using Thunderbird email client.

Template showing in Mails->customize, setting not reflecting in email.
Wordpress : Version 4.4.1
Buddypress : Version 2.5.1

Please help what is correct steps to get html emails working.

Using Gravity Forms is one solution, yes. It’s easy once you have the plugin itself PLUS the “user registration” plugin they offer which i think is open only for the developer license. It completely replaces the BuddyPress registration form. I use it for a variety of sites that need more complex registration forms (there of course is a tradeoff, but one of the pluses is that Gravity Forms are rock solid against registration spam).

It’s hardcoded. If you know how to customise a theme and write PHP, you can see the implemetnation: https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sites/trunk/buddypress.org/public_html/wp-content/themes/bb-base/functions.php#L355

bbPress does have shortcodes, I’d suggest doing that instead. I don’t know what the shortcode is, I’d suggest searching on bbpress.org.

Right now, you can’t. It’s a mandatory and required field, and very much hardcoded throughout BuddyPress.

You *might* be able to not show the form if you replace the sign-up process with a Gravity Form (I think that’s it — one of the form plugins). I know @dimensionmedia has done this; I’m not sure he regularly reads these forums, but if he does, hopefully he’ll clarify if I’ve remembered correctly.

I suspect even if that is an option, you’ll still need to programatically set the name field to something.

sorry for my dumb questions.
my cover imagens aren’t working 🙁 . i tried update but dont change the image.

let me explain, i’m using a wlms theme and not a buddypress theme
this is what i did, first i try tu edit the files functions and cover-image-header from this folder
/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default
not work this way.

So finally i WIN !! thanks for u ! hahaha
this is the folder u have to edit ( for future questions by another users )
i edit insite the child theme
/public_html/wp-content/themes/wplms_modern functions.php
and
/public_html/wp-content/themes/wplms_modern/members/single member-header.php

So you are using cover images but they aren’t working? Or do you just mean the button isn’t appearing?

Since you are using cover images the second code segment (number 2 above) needs to be placed in cover-image-header.php . It won’t appear if you put it in member-header.php because that is for profiles when you haven’t activated the use of cover images.

That’s correct it won’t be in your child theme unless you’ve already put it there to make modifications. So it sounds like you need to copy the cover-image-header.php into your child theme following the same file structure. Something like:

mychildtheme>buddypress>members>single

(it goes in the single folder).

Hopefully you’ll see the button now
