BuddyPress.org

Hello @thecbell,

This should be a good starting point. Though a little old, the plugin below does a similar job for the sMember system, but you can give it a try in your development install and report any progress/set-back in this thread:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-profiles-manager/

Good luck 😉

No problem. Have you tried switching themes to see if that resolves it? You should do that first so that you actually know it is a theme issue.

In your theme, look for, starting at your root directory in WP:

/wp-content/themes/[theme-name]/buddypress/members/single/home.php

Is that in your theme? If not, then disregard this theory, at least in regards to your theme. If so, then please post the code from that template here and I’ll take a look at it.

@icog,

Quit being an oliver twist…

But I think this is what you’re trying to do:

Do the followings and you’re well on your way…

1. Install the plugin “BP Group Organizer”
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-group-organizer/

2. Install GroupOmatic Plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-groupomatic/

Follow @megainfo’s instructions above by installing the GroupOMatic plugin to create appropriate conditions for the filling-in of matching profile field at registration.

You can also utilise the Hierarchy plugin to manage the groups.

It’s fairly easy to manage what you seek with the above solutions including the suggestions of @megainfo…

GroupOmatic plugin is not compatible (just use it and quit complaining), OR create a plugin of your own that does just that. Or if you can spare some change buy the pro version.

Try copying the bp-default theme from the Buddypress plugin bp-themes folder to your wp-content/themes folder

Several of what BP themes? BuddyPress works with any well written theme following the WP template principles, as you don’t mention what themes you have tried, try activating one of the WP standard themes bundled with WP then you’ll be able to see BP in action, also please do check the BP codex documentation as you’ll find helpful guides to getting started there.

P.S. Why are you looking for a bp-custom.php file what prompted you to do that? This doesn’t exist by default and is created as needed and the file is specifically to run code that affects BP core operation across any theme which may be installed; it isn’t required to simply run a theme or BP.

That works perfectly but I would love to know how to get this post form to add the Buddypress Activity Plus media buttons. Any idea?

Old topic, but maybe interesting? I needed the same functionallity so I created a plugin that might help here, too:

Hi @dtc7240,

Thank you very mutch for reporting bugs.

i have added fix on the last version (1.3).
I just want to mention that i keeped the ability to members to change the visibility of no threaded comment( join group, leave group, ..etc) since this activities concerns it.

be cargful when you add this tests on your version:
if( bp_activity_user_can_delete() && bp_get_activity_type() == 'activity_update' ) {

it’s can stop the plugin to work for others plugins like buddydrive or others ( they use others activity type other than ‘activity_update’).

I invite you to join the support forum of the plugin for more enhancement and suggestions.

Thanks again for the fix.

Regards,
Mounir

Does this have anything to do with BuddyPress?

Hi @nat0n

I think you are using a deprecated method to get users. The only way I’ve found to reproduce the issue was to force BuddyPress to use BP_Core_User::get_users() which is deprecated since version 1.7 of BuddyPress.

If i’m right about the above paragraph, I strongly advise you to use BP_User_Query to quickly solve the trouble.

Not sure but Did you confirm your WordPress Settings https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/register-and-activation-pages/ having Membership Checked.

No news here? I can confirm that the problem exist with only 1 plugin active (BuddyPress), network activated or not, and may be connected to the issue where the names of group members don’t show up at all (if the user hasn’t edited their WordPress profile name that is, then it’s cool).

@aniclip Take a look at rtMedia plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-media/ . I also tagged @boonebgorges – He did a incredible job on project that has portfolios for people. He may have a better suggestion.

@webauthor
You are looking for similiar features like I did. I understand your frustration, but finally, there’s nearly nothing that can’t be done with buddypress – if you have the right skills.

I found a solution concerning different registration/profile fields or types: give it a try

Also, I know there’s a plugin for conditional fields, but I’m not sure if it works: check it out

Support isn’t always that fast – that’s right. But finally most of my questions could be answered in the past.

Good luck!

Hi Mounir (@megainfo). I stumbled across another php notice when pulling up my members page:

PHP Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$activity_count in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-activity-privacy/includes/bp-activity-privacy-filters.php on line 114

Can you please add the second argument to the if statement below in the bp_visibility_activity_filter() function when you have a chance?

        if ( $remove_from_stream && isset($activities->activity_count) ) {
            $activities->activity_count = $activities->activity_count - 1;
            unset( $activities->activities[$key] );
        }

Thank you very much,
Scott

closing duplicate post https://buddypress.org/support/topic/staff-scheduling-plugin/

Caching BuddyPress often leads to problems in my experience. There are other methods to speed it up. Do you need all of those plugins. They’re all doing things (writing to the DB possibly) and many probably load their own JS and CSS files. That is part of what bogs down site speed.

For the email issue, did you happen to migrate your database at any point in time? In the DB users and messages are all tied to each other and it’s possible that the IDs got messed up in your DB somehow, so messages are going to the wrong recipients.
