HI, I hope someone can help me. I have bbpress for our Forum which has bbPress Digest (https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-digest/). The plug-in works great but we had to get BuddyPress in order to edit our user profiles. The combo of both is great, but we don’t want to have a group email digest, we want our clients to be able to change it individually like we can with bbPress Digest. I can’t find a way to show the bbPress Digest options (which is edited in the WordPress user profile.) Can someone help with either a solution or potentially look at our setup and suggest a solution?

Hi @pierremaitre
Even if you haven’t disabled the new Widget block editor or are not using the Classic Widget plugin, you can keep BP Legacy widgets using a specific filter, I advise you to read this developer note: https://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2022/01/16/legacy-widgets-in-buddypress-10-0-0/
Hello. I noticed that my existing user photos don’t transfer over to the buddypress profiles. I’ve seen it’s possible for other plugins so i wanted to know if it’s normal or can it be corrected?
Thanks
Hello All,
Is anyone else having the same issue as me? Whenever a user on my site registers with a weak password (and checks the “Confirm use of weak password” box), their registration goes through. But they aren’t able to log in. Every time they try to log in, they get the incorrect username/password message.
It’s like BuddyPress wants them to use a stronger password, but lets them register anyway. But then doesn’t let them log in with the weak password.
Any suggestions?
We’re setting up a new BuddyPress site that will be based on actual geographic communities, such as cities. The site itself will be global, but when users in (for instance), Dubuque, Iowa log into the system to work on community issues, we only want them to see the Group we’ve created for Dubuque, and only be able to see and connect with users in the Dubuque Group. Is this easy to do? Is there a plugin that makes it easier?
Not sure about anyone else but this gave my server an internal 500 error after updating and my VPS CPUs are always at 100% when anything buddypress is loaded, the website calms down after a few mins and if I load anything from buddypress the CPU skyrockets again into a grinding hault!
There must be some dodgy SQL statements or something happening.
If I understand what you’re asking, you should be able to add profile fields in the WordPress Dashboard under Users->Profile Fields. As long as you set “Visibility” to Everyone, then I believe that Buddypress will display those fields in the person’s profile.
It adds option for ascending or descending order on the buddypress profile activity tab.
I don’t know of a way to (easily) post a screen shot here, but if you email me I’ll send you one.
My email is in my profile here.
I finally got a lead on how to do this from the BuddyDev.com forum:
https://buddydev.com/support/forums/topic/adding-a-second-control-to-members-activity-loop/
I actually ended up using a combination of filters similar to the ones at the bottom of that post, along with an override of buddypress/members/single/activity.php.
I can supply more details, in the unlikely event that anyone actually reads this and wants them 🙂
Hi, can someone please help me on how to show the count for new notifications in the menu like Facebook does, and other Buddypress sites that I have viewed.
Thanks!
Hello!
I just installed BuddyPress, it created the necessary pages for me automatically. The Members and the Activity pages work. But the Register and Activate pages don’t. I have allowed people to register in my website. I checked the settings of BuddyPress – all seem fine and associated. I tried also to delete those and create them manually, and then associate them manually from the settings of BuddyPress. The result was the same – Members and Activity open, while Register and Activate redirects me to Home. What could me the problem? I’m using Astra theme.
Am I the only one having a very difficult time to get a BuddyPress forum post to embed properly on Facebook. When I copy the url for a forum post and past it on Facebook, Facebook only gives the domain main link and say GROUPS.
Anybody else have this issue?
Thanks, but are you answering the question in the subject line, or the question in the body?
Do my existing WordPress users automatically become BuddyPress users?
@mikegillihan thanks for the tip. A default install of the latest WordPress, bbPress and BuddyPress has this issue, still.
I was having the same issue; likely reason was my SEO plugin (Yoast SEO) only runs wp_get_user_contact_methods() in wp-admin. I re-registered the contact methods, and the BuddyPress-WordPress Text Fields now save the user contact data.
Hi @vapvarun, yes, I am already using Nouveau template when setting up BuddyPress.
@cheekeat please make sure you are using the Nouveau template
BuddyX is best with the Nouveau template

Hi,
We are experiencing a strange bug in profiles on a website :
https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/20159139?key=49f6e6588a7a6e61feed627ab6ca054d
It seems like the ul with class “bpxcftr-multi-taxonomy-terms-list” is not well rendered in the link element, and makes the whole field render go wrong.
We recreated the website on another environment, with strictly the same database, WP Version, PHP version, everything. But we do not reproduce the bug on our internal environment.
Here are the versions used:
WP 5.3.11
PHP 7.4
BuddyPress 9.0.0
BuddyPress Docs 2.1.3
BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types 1.1.9
Any idea what might be wrong here?
Thanks in advance 🙂
Hi @vapvarun, below is the error info that I copied from the fatal crash email. Hope it is helpful.

Hi @vapvarun. Thanks for your suggestion. I have tried the plugin you suggested. There is another plugin (BuddyPress Activity Shortcode) I have also tried. But both plugins crashed my site upon activation. I have to remove them in safe mode.
