@agnesmeil – Try:

function agnes_customize_lesson_tracking_args() {

    if ( ! bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) 
        return;
 
    add_post_type_support( 'namaste_lesson', 'buddypress-activity' );
 
    bp_activity_set_post_type_tracking_args( 'namaste_lesson', array(
        'action_id'                         => 'new_namaste_lesson',

To update this thread, I’ve just added a fix for emails not sending for certain server configurations. See https://buddypress.org/support/topic/read-this-first-buddypress-2-5-master-list/ and https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6947

I think this will help many people, but I would surprised if it fixed everything for everyone. Fingers crossed!

2.) Then when altering configuration (i.e. adding add_filter( ‘bp_email_use_wp_mail’, ‘__return_true’ ); to BP_Custom), and testing again, the emails output a combination of WP Better Email and the default template with various CSS Styles altering different parts of the email with each new email sent.

BTW, this is exactly what I expect to happen. The content from the plain text version of the email from BuddyPress into the template provided by, in this case, WP Better Email.

If you’re saying extra CSS is getting involved, I strongly suspect you have some other plugin or theme component adding extra junk.

Did you keep a backup copy of your database? If so then you’ll need to use that. Then there’s the files and folders. You should be able to get the 2.4.3 zip from:

bbpress.org/support would be a better question as they provide the forum software (not BuddyPress) but generally speaking, it depends how you’re going to automate inviting those 600 people. As long as your invite script doesn’t run out of memory, you shouldn’t have any problem. Certainly, there’s no limit inside bbPress for the number of users it can support.

@dcstyle Not directly for your issue (the success says as far as we can tell, it was delivered to the email server — if you didn’t receive it and if it didn’t get marked as spam, the mail server could have rejected delivery for all kinds of reasons.

We will have a couple of fixes coming into BuddyPress 2.5.1 this week which have a chance of affecting your problem. I think we need to wait for 2.5.1 to come out, then you can update to that, and test again.

@karolbielecki The German language pack has not been updated for BuddyPress 2.5, so that’s expected: https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/buddypress/language-packs

Please start a new support discussion, I don’t think your issues have anything to do with this thread.

Hi, I had the same problem. I checked all the “Repair Tools” boxes, hit go, and now my admin screen is gone. When I disable BuddyPress, my admin screen is fine. When I reactivate it…bye bye. Please advise.

That would be buddypress/members/index-register.php. See the BuddyPress Template Hierarchy article for more details.

Update: With reference to usernames on the wordpress.org forum:

Since [dotorg11555] only a-z and 0-9 are allowed for usernames.

I’m not sure if this change will extend to the WordPress platform and BuddyPress.

So the wpMandrill plugin re-implements wp_mail() function which means BuddyPress should be passing on the plain text versions of the BuddyPress emails onto Mandrill.

This might help (change ID from 1 in the appropriate places to the ID of your administrator(s). ID’s found in your database ):
