Hi Shane
Thanks for quick reply.
Its because I am using a badge plugin that requires Buddypress to be active before the badge plugin will work for bbPress.
I will check in the bbPress forum. Thanks
Why are you using BuddyPress if you use Ultimate Member ?
Have you considered turning off the xprofile component in BP?
You might want to ask on bbPress forums about how to filter the author links in forums.
Hi.
I am running WordPress Ver 4.2.2 with Buddypress 2.3.2.1.
There seems to be some error on my Extended Profile Field pages and there are 14 ‘First Name’ Primary fields on it which I can’t seem to delete (Screenshot of admin and registration page attached).
I noticed this error after I tried to install the ‘BP XProfile WordPress User Sync’ plugin which failed as it is only meant for older versions of BP.
The installation is located at http://www.rbsalumni.com. Any help would be much appreciated!

afaik, The ‘Upload Image’ is not part of BuddyPress.
So it is in your theme or some other plugin.
Please don’t double post. Your other thread has been deleted.
Unless you are specifically using the bp-default theme, you should create a template overload of this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\activate.php
And make your changes there.
So instead of a listing of all the groups, you want a dropdown?
Create a template overload of this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\groups\groups-loop.php
And replace the listing layout with a dropdown.
i m newbie in buddypress but good in wordpress, i m using buddypress and my requirement is show the group as DROPDOWN instead as Deault showing on Group page
i m using wordpress latest version 4.2 and buddypress latest version
can u please guide me how can i achieve my goal
if you need more clarification , i will give ,if it will resolve in two days , it will be very good for me
thanks
i edited the source code my self and added <form action=”#” which should sort the problem but by doing that everytime there is an update i will need to redo it myself
Yeah, that’s not recommended because, as you say, you will need to redo after each BuddyPress update.
The W3C validator is saying you can’t have an empty form action attribute. So instead of:
<form action=""
you will need to provide a value like this:
<form action="some-script.php"
You could open a ticket on Trac or alternatively you could solve the problem by providing a value yourself. Check out the BuddyPress Template Hierarchy article for details on how to override templates.
Hi there i have been trying to get my site W3C validated and needless to say there is always something thats wrong lol, while i have been fixing a lot of other plugin issues i have come across a few in bbpress and buddypress:
Groups cause:

Now i know and understand that the WP-O-Matic one is
Buddypress but im having issues finding its point of origin is it from buddypress or is WP-o-matic adding it there.
but the other issues should be attended too i know they are silly little things but SEO is extremely important and something like this wouldnt take very long to resolve for instance adding # to the forms that dont get redirected to another location.
like i said i know its not a priority but if you had time i’d be extremely grateful.
Kind Regards

Sorry for not writing that earlier. It seems that I need to work on my problem description skills. I enabled the visual tab already through an addon called bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab, but since I used that for quite some time I forgot that the visual tab is switched off by default.
So my setting is: I have BuddyPress groups, with bbPress forums. I have the visual tab enabled (easier to use for non-techi persons). I have the @mentions feature enabled, but it only works in the text tab (the ‘quicktags’ argument on the bbPress link you gave me). So what I want is now somehow enable the @mentions feature also for the visual tab.
I thought that @oakcreative has a similar approach, thats why I joined the thread. But I´m not sure how to replicate his approach with bbPress…
Today I found there was a member-loop.php added to my theme files. Could this be part of the problem? Should I add the member template file to the theme as well?
<?php
/**
* BuddyPress - Members Loop

* Querystring is set via AJAX in _inc/ajax.php - bp_dtheme_object_filter()

Hi,
Currently my Buddypress’ Activation message links the login to ordinary wp-login which I need it to go to http://mydomain.com/my-account/ where I have all my new registration and login.
I have gone to: /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/activate.php
…and on line 23:
<p><?php _e( 'Your account was activated successfully! Your account details have been sent to you in a separate email.', 'buddypress' ); ?></p>
<?php else : ?>
<p><?php printf( __( 'Your account was activated successfully! You can now <a href="%s">log in</a> with the username and password you provided when you signed up.', 'buddypress' ), wp_login_url( bp_get_root_domain() ) ); ?></p>
Can somebody please help me to incorporate my link in this code?
Thanks very much.
I am stumped – I am not getting any emails to notify of new topics to users subscribed to forums or topics.
I get the email notification to admin that the new topic has been posted, but no email to a user who is subscribed to the forum.
Versions: WP 4.2.2 BP 2.3.1 bbPress 2.5.7
I have disabled all plugins except: BuddyPress, bbPress & Email log, which records the email to admin but no other.
If I send a private message to the test user, I DO get the email notification, so bbPress can get the email through, when it wants to. I am thus ruling out an email routing/delivery problem.
I confirm that the test user is subscribed to the test forum.
I have run the Forum tool to repair all the relationships etc.
I thought the test user should get an email notification when a new topic is posted to a subscribed forum, without any additional plugins.
Am I missing something? Help will be much appreciated.
I made:
wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bke/buddypress/members/register.php
Yet, any changes, do not show.
Create a template overload of this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\register.php
and adjust the layout.
Look at function delete() and function save() in
buddypress\bp-xprofile\classes\class-bp-xprofile-profiledata.php
You’ll find before and after action hooks that you can use to delete or save profile data to usermeta.
I am setting up a multisite, using BuddyPress.
Now, everything is looking good, except the register page.
I am using WP 4.2.2 an BP 2.3.1
When look at the register page, the Profile Details goes to the right of the Account Details.
Is there a way, to set it so it goes under the Account Details?
I know the rest of my registration page issue, are theme related, but this one is not, as it’s always like this, no matter what theme I set to.

I have a client building a site on BuddyPress and using XProfile fields for profile fields. Unfortunately this leaves the data locked in BuddyPress and inaccessible to any other plugins that deal with profiles and user meta (no idea why this hasn’t been updated). I need to be able to hook into the update profile action and copy all the XProfile fields to wp_usermeta. Is there an existing solution to this problem? Thank you
Anybody? This must be a common need amongst people with buddypress sites? SEO-friendly profile pages should be a priority, no?
Yes, if you need that club appears everywhere where group is used by default !
No, if you want to modify only ONE string
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/help-changing-contact-in-profile/#post-233027
Hi rené
when xprofile component is activated, the only field who should appear on register page is Name (in Base group field). There is no setting for this because it is mandatory !
Check visibility settings of Name first, and deactivate contact-form7 and see if field comes back.
User Extended Profiles
Hi
I’m having some trouble with my register form (https://sport-und-ms.phil.fau.de/)
At registration/sign up page, user can add profile details such as birthdate, gender etc. but altough the NAME (not the username) field is shown in the backend (edit profile fields), it is not visible at the frontend.
Do you know any options to fix this?
I’m using Buddypress version 2.2.3.1 and the latest wordpress version.
Thanks. René
@nithin270 @dineshravajani07 – Please help us debug bp_verify_nonce_request():
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.3.1/src/bp-core/bp-core-functions.php#L2005
Judging by what you are doing, it appears that function is returning false.
Can you debug that function and find out whereabouts the function is failing for you?
Are your sites behind a reverse proxy?
Your best best is to create a new language file, then you can customize nearly all of the strings:
