BuddyPress.org

I resolved this issue, but another remains:

Yesterday, I was getting frustrated with the bbPress (a forum plugin for WordPress), because when I’d have a private forum, instead of it just being an attribute, it prepended ‘Private: ‘ before every forum.

In my attempt to resolve this issue, I found a similar thing to what JSHelp referenced in this Stack Overflow Post: a code that would be located in the theme’s (my theme was Twenty-Fourteen) functions.php file.

My attempt to resolve THAT issue, led to THIS issue (where we have HTML code being converted to non-code text on the buddyPress profile page).

On removing the code from function.php, the issue fixed itself.

However, I am unsure why these two interact in the way that they do, below is the code I added and later commented out:

function the_title_trim($title) {
	// Might aswell make use of this function to escape attributes
	$title = attribute_escape($title);
	// What to find in the title
	$findthese = array(
		'#Protected:#', // # is just the delimeter
		'#Private:#'
	);
	// What to replace it with
	$replacewith = array(
		'', // What to replace protected with
		'' // What to replace private with
	);
	// Items replace by array key
	$title = preg_replace($findthese, $replacewith, $title);
	return $title;
}
add_filter('the_title', 'the_title_trim');

Hi @antimuffin

This might not be happening due to BuddyPress. Are you sure your theme, Pinboard, isn’t removing the target attribute?

@henrywright hey henry sorry for the delay in responding, i have only just noticed this post, yes i can also confirm and would not advise anyone to go for the managed packages, i went for the quad core xeon @3.5ghz dedicated server package with 1tb raid 1 and 16gb ddr3 ram unmanaged option, this server is lightning fast and i am very happy with it, i have signed up for their ssl certificate plan too because my server plan is for 24 months to bring the monthly cost down, so to me it makes sense to go for there ssl package too, i even manged to get them to set it all up for free and got my first month free 🙂 , i know this is a big commitment to sign up for 24 months but i really think the specs i went for will be enough for this period, saying all this though about the managed server option i also would NOT recommend anyone without good knowledge of linux and apache/centos trying to setup a dedicated server until they have used at minimum a vps or similar for a while first, some people seem to think they can jump from a shared hosting environment to a dedicated server and quite often get confused as of how to securely set up their server, things like locking down your ssh, creating banners and setting up firewalls etc can be a daunting task for the ones less knowledgeable with linux from the command line, one other thing to note with 1&1 is the way that the partitions are set initially, you will find that you will need to allocate much more drive space to your partitions when first setting up your server by expanding them because they only have 4gb allocated to each partition when you first use it.
i hope this helps anyone who reads it and is thinking of going down the dedicated route for buddypress.

I am thinking about writing a basic server hardening tutorial and first steps to take when i have got the time, if anyone would be interested in a tutorial about what steps to take when getting a dedicated server for the first time let me know, i will see what i can do.

@levre Something got lost in translation, not quite clear what you mean. What I’m getting is that you have a WP Multisite installation and you have BuddyPress network-activated. I gather that you want separate instances of BuddyPress in that multisite installation. That is not possible at this time except through plugins see https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4732

@arturol WP/BP versions? What theme are you using? What plugins are activated?
Have you tried basic troubleshooting like deactivating all plugins except BuddyPress and changing to on of WP default Twenty-xx themes to check what’s causing the issue in your installation?

This is about my accounts at buddypress.org, trying to understand how this relates to my account at wordpress.org, and how this all relates to Gravatar.

@playerzero BuddyPress.org as well as bbPress.org, etc., belong to the WordPress.org ecosystem. As you found out, you needed to set up an account/username and password at WordPress.org before you can log in here.
Re Gravatar.com account, make sure you use the same email address as you’re using for WordPress.org so that your gravatar will be associated with your persona here at BPorg, at WPorg, at bbPress.org, etc.

As @henrywright and @bphelp mentioned above, you need to be more specific about what you want to find out. If it’s not appropriate for this forum, we’ll let you know. For example, what about BuddyPress.org do you need to know?

How to remove @mention from updates, forum posts, etc

When searching (and/or tweaking) code in BuddyPress, use a text editor like Notepad++. This editor provide also a robust search tool. It’s much faster to work with the right tool as to wait for a response on a forum…. 😉

@shpitzyl, get inspired by this tread:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-remove-username-from-buddypress-member-profiles/

It’s actually wp_mail() that yu’re looking for: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_mail

To change the sender info is possible without modifying BuddyPress depending on what they’re asking you to change. What info do they need you to change?

Hi @playerzero

It depends on what kind of support you need. If the problem you’re having is a bug then you can create a ticket at Trac:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/

If the problem is a ‘how-to-do’ something then the Codex (user context) has lots of useful information:

https://codex.buddypress.org/context/user/

If the problem is something else, then feel free to create a new topic to discuss (as @bphelp already mentioned above).

array( $this is because code is inside a class and it’s referring back to itself

add_action( 'xprofile_set_field_data', array( $this, 'OnBuddyPressUserUpdate' ), 101 );

hi @dio1987,

give this a try. Component name will be removed only when you’re on a profile

function my_profiles_wp_title( $title ='', $sep = '', $seplocation = '' ) {
	if( bp_get_displayed_user_fullname() ) {
		$bp = buddypress();
		
		// Get the component's ID to try and get it's name
		$component_id = $component_name = bp_current_component();
		
		// Use the actual component name
		if ( !empty( $bp->{$component_id}->name ) ) {
			$component_name = $bp->{$component_id}->name;
			
			// Fall back on the component ID (probably same as current_component)
		} elseif ( !empty( $bp->{$component_id}->id ) ) {
			$component_name = $bp->{$component_id}->id;
		}
		
		$title = str_replace( ucwords( $component_name ), '', $title );
	}  
	return $title;
}
add_filter( 'bp_modify_page_title', 'my_profiles_wp_title', 20, 3 );
