Hi,

search a bit here: https://wordpress.org/search/admin+bar

also on this forum:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-make-admin-bar-toolbar-like-on-buddypress-org/
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/buddypress-org-theme-2/

> then click on ‘Complete Signup’ button but nothing happens and no users are created in the backend.

@startershut Click on wp-admin menu Users and click on BP’s Pending link on screen then activate the user you just created. https://codex.buddypress.org/administrator-guide/pending-users-admin-screen/

Here’s how regular member registration works: https://codex.buddypress.org/member-guide/registration/

Codex reference:

Members Navigation Menus

Also, on the forum, several topics, with many snippets:
https://buddypress.org/support/search/bp_nav_menu/

Here a working example, which add 2 external links on a profile.

function bpfr_custom_setup_nav() {
  if ( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) )
?>
<li><a href="<?php bp_members_directory_permalink(); ?>"><?php printf( __( 'All Members', 'buddypress' ) ); ?></a></li>
<li><a href="http://buddypress.org" target="_blank" title="BP">BuddyPress</a></li>
<?php  
}
add_action( 'bp_member_options_nav', 'bpfr_custom_setup_nav' );

@tomnikkola,

as you discovered already, the CSS trick is a poor solution.
Two solution are on hand.
A first one, which applies to all activity feeds.
Basically the below snippet handles globally the activties output. You simply remove the activity(ies) you don’t want to see from the list. Note that almost all activity types are listed.
Add it to child functions.php or to bp-custom.php

function demo_parse( $retval ) {
	// existing BP/bbP activities
	// remove the one you wont to see from that list
	$retval['action'] = '
		activity_comment,
		activity_update,
		bbp_topic_create,
                bbp_reply_create,
		friendship_created,
		joined_group,
		last_activity,
		new_avatar,
		new_blog_post, 	
		new_member,
		updated_profile
	';	

	return $retval;
	
	}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'demo_parse' );

Codex:

Using bp_parse_args() to filter BuddyPress template loops

The second solution, is to use a child-theme with a modified activity loop. This let you handle finer condition for each user.

Read this tut how you can do that.

Codex:

Activity Loop

There are, unfortunately, two sets of user data.

Your imported data was placed in the _usermeta table.
This data will show in wp-admin > users > user > profile

BuddyPress uses different tables: _xprofile_
This data will show in wp-admin > users > user > extended profile
And on the front end while viewing a member profile.

You may want to write a script that migrates from usermeta to xprofile.
Study the structure of the tables used for xprofile.

Cool running club! I was looking to join a club near me but Harold Wood is about a 30 minute drive away.

Regarding your question:

Is there a way of passing this path to Buddypress as the default avatar?

You can filter the default avatar URL using the bp_core_default_avatar_user hook.

Hope this helps!

Are activity updates a wordpress custom posts types?

No. Activity items aren’t custom posts; instead, they live in the bp_activity table. See here for a diagram.

Hi @mhawksey

Can you open a new bug report for this on Trac referencing #5733?

This isn’t possible out-of-the-box but there may be a plugin in the WordPress Plugin Directory that adds Disqus functionality.

Adding items to the BuddyPress activity stream is very easy. Check out the bp_activity_add() article for more info.
