@loralai Could you please provide more information about your installation like:
– WP/BP versions?
– Where are you hosted?
– If you change to the WP Default Theme and deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress, can you crop the image then?
I have created a custom template, and have included the buddypress template folder in my template. However for some reason when we try to upload user avatar photos and we go to crop the image we were unable to crop it. All it did was display two photos of the same size and until the image was saved.
thank you @mercime I did try the 2015 theme after deactivating all plugins except BuddyPress, and same issue. Yes I can upload images and see thumbnails with 2015 theme and with my BuddyBoss theme. I still have the problem with profile images not working. I also have a new issue where private messages no longer work from inside BuddyPress. I am hosted with inmotion.
@rebekahmeuir Deactivate plugins except BuddyPress and change to the Twenty Fifteen theme. Then go to admin dashboard and navigate to Media > Add New. Can you upload images and see the thumbnails of the images you uploaded there?
Hey everyone,
Long time wordpress and woocommerce user but have yet to try buddypress. Either way for what I’m trying to do before I decide what platform and route to take (hoping buddypress is capable as I am a avid supporter of all wordpress).
So trying to make a native phone app. But on the phone of course it will need the ability to use the code we already have to take photos (we already have that part working. How can we take the site and actually make it into a native app.
Thanks!

Got a chance to revisit this…
Both versions are now components.
BuddyPress Simple Events in the WP repo.
BuddyPress Simple Events Pro now has options for an Attending button, list of attendees, and notifications. As well as image support and Group assignment options.
Re themes: the templates have been tested with included WP themes. If there is an issue with a particular theme, the templates can be overloaded and adjusted as necessary. The layouts are bare-bones, iow. very basic layouts.
Re comment syncing: unfortunately, comment syncing is broken in BP 2.2.1. See tickets 6306 and 6294
Hello,
I’m using WordPress 4.2.2 with BuddyPress 2.2.3.1. and the issue occurs even with the default themes.
The problem is when a user registers on my website he gets activated immediately, without going through the regular email activation process.
When I try to register a test user, I see the notice to check my email for the activation code. The email is sent with an activation code and when I click on the link it says “Invalid Key” (of course the user is already activated so I think this is normal).
I checked the database at the “sign-ups” table and I noticed that a user registers at say 22:10:10 and gets “automatically” activated one or two seconds later.
What could possibly be causing this? I deactivated all other plugins besides BuddyPress and this still happens.
Ok thanks guys. The only problem is, the mediamaster plugin didnt even install and left no traces, but the problem was caused by the mediamaster plugin,so I’m unable to delete it and it wont let me update my wordpress version without producing a bunch of black bold errors across the top of the screen similar to this
Fatal+error:+Call+to+undefined+function+buddypress()+in+%2Fhome%2Fu528061689%2Fpublic.
Fatal+error:+Call+to+undefined+function+buddypress()+in+%2Fhome%2Fu528061689%2Fpublic.
Fatal+error:+Call+to+undefined+function+buddypress()+in+%2Fhome%2Fu528061689%2Fpublic.
Fatal+error:+Call+to+undefined+function+buddypress()+in+%2Fhome%2Fu528061689%2Fpublic.
I cant remember if this is exactly the correct error when trying to update WordPress, but it shows the errors in multiple black bold lines as above. What is the solution to this because as it is now, if i happen to download a “bad” plugin and it does this again, i have to completely start over from scratch by having to uninstall and reinstall buddypress and start over which is very aggravating!. Isn’t there some way of creating a backup of your BP site/plugins that can quickly be restored if you happen to download a bad plugin that messes everything up? will making a backup up on my webhost restore everything if this happens again?
Thank You
Hello @henrywright thank you! So it wasn’t the plugins. Turns out Divi theme suddenly stopped working with Buddypress.
I’m installing a new theme now to try.
Hi I changed my theme to back to zerogravity.
But I think I’ve figured out what was going on. It seems from the settings panel
Setting>BuddyPress>Pages when I click the view button for the register and activate
pages I get redirected to my static front page.
But when I am on another browser and not logged in to wordpress everything seems
to work correctly.
@mzaidk,
it’s intended so. The button will only show up when you click inside the textbox.
Also, it seems you use BP Default theme. Do you know that you can use any other themme since BP 1.7 ?
Theme Compatibility & Template Files
Ah right this is why those version requirements are listed and need to be paid attention to.
Regardless of the plugin issue, this forums advice must start and finish on updating WordPress then BuddyPress it is really inadvisable to run with versions that are this outdated, WP had a major security update around the 4.0 point.
Aside of renaming folders coming from github, you can’t use this plugin with your BP 1.5.3.1 and WP 3.3.1 version.
MediaPress requires at least: WP 3.9 & BuddyPress 2.0
Update your install first or find another solution.

Hi there,
There’s a chance your theme hasn’t updated its templates. In order to have the activity dropdowns populated, please check your templates are up to date see https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/activity-dropdown-filters-in-templates/#use-bp_activity_show_filters-within-your-bp-default-child-theme

Help greatly appreciated
So default privacy has 4 options:
private
friends
logged in users
public
when I switch to friends or private, people who are not friends can still see the profile.
how does this work?
Groups are a BuddyPress thing are they not?
I am requesting that the Group Forum selector in the Group Forum Settings in BuddyPress be able to support more than one forum NOT forums supporting multiple groups.
Yes, but BuddyPress doesn’t do anything with the bbPress plugin. bbPress integrates itself into BuddyPress. bbPress handles all the BuddyPress group integration.
What you’re requesting should be a bbPress feature.
I just tried adding the snippets and again and that problem isn’t happening anymore. However, the filter functionality isn’t working…
See Screenshot —

Here’s the code I used….
<?php
// hacks and mods will go here ok
// Don't forget to add the 'buddypress-activity' support!
add_post_type_support( 'page', 'buddypress-activity' );
function customize_page_tracking_args() {
// Check if the Activity component is active before using it.
if ( ! bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) {
return;
}
bp_activity_set_post_type_tracking_args( 'page', array(
'component_id' => buddypress()->blogs->id,
'action_id' => 'new_blog_page',
'bp_activity_admin_filter' => __( 'Published a new page', 'custom-domain' ),
'bp_activity_front_filter' => __( 'Pages', 'custom-domain' ),
'contexts' => array( 'activity', 'member' ),
'activity_comment' => true,
'bp_activity_new_post' => __( '%1$s posted a new <a href="%2$s">page</a>', 'custom-textdomain' ),
'bp_activity_new_post_ms' => __( '%1$s posted a new <a href="%2$s">page</a>, on the site %3$s', 'custom-textdomain' ),
'position' => 100,
) );
}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'customize_page_tracking_args' );
?>
Is there anything I need to add or change in the above code in order to make PAGES show in the filter area?
Hi Can anyone explain why I am getting new registrations 3 days after I have uninstalled BuddyPress
Hi @fuzzllc
A way of doing this would be to override the user’s role when they sign up. BuddyPress provides a hook we can use for this bp_core_signup_user. So, you could do something like this:
function fuzzllc_set_default_role( $user_id ) {
$user = new WP_User( $user_id );
$user->set_role( 'keymaster' ); // keymaster can be whatever you like
}
add_action( 'bp_core_signup_user', 'fuzzllc_set_default_role' );
@browserco,
thank you for your help, but please, don’t give a 4 years old solution without testing it.
At first, the snippet contains cote errors, and second, it doesn’t work with BP 2.x, as things has changed.
You can easily modify your template loop by using bp_parse_args function.
Here a working example (activity-update is commented – uncomment to see the difference)
You simply have to list what to show. Anything not listed will be ignored, on all activity feeds.
Add this to bp-custom.php or child theme functions.php
function my_bp_activities_include_activity_types( $retval ) {
// only allow the following activity types to be shown
$retval['action'] = array(
// 'activity_update',
'activity_comment',
'new_blog_post',
'new_blog_comment',
'friendship_created',
'created_group',
);
return $retval;
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'my_bp_activities_include_activity_types' );
