BuddyPress.org

Clear your browser cache. This happens sometimes when you register, then try to login as new user during the same session. Can also be due to theme or plugin settings.

Any ideas on what may have caused this ?

That question was answered here.

It’s the user who did it wrong, so guess there is no technical solution.

The “from” wordpress@mysite.com is a default address which redirect to site admin address (the one you indicate when you setup WP).

This can (and should be) changed, as its a common trick used by spammers. Read here how to do this.

Hi and welcome,

but unfortunatly you’re on the buddyPress forum here.

For bbPress related questions, go here.

Anything related to messages and notifications is stored in bp-notifications and bp-messages folders.

Style is handled in /buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/css/buddypress.css

More on Codex: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/function-examples/bp_notifications_add_notification/

Version 9 and 6 are slightly different and Customizr doesn’t show a complete BP title when you use the latest patch (9). For example, you’ll see just the site name on single activities.

Applying the first one made by imath will probably be the best solution in your situation. I won’t critizise Customizr, but personnally i won’t use it with BuddyPress. Because of this issue, and some others, handled on that theme support. 951,457 downloads maybe say it’s a popular theme, but 245 support pages in one year is something that get me a bit suspicious in term of usage.

There is no miraculous method to apply a patch, and no special tips for that except if you don’t know how to copy/paste code, which i can’t belive is the case 😉

So Codex is your friend to discover some other academic methods like using Tortoise.

Not sure that Customizr is now working 100% with BP (1 year back it wasn’t compatible with BP).

Anyway, issue is related to the theme. FYI, 2015 also doesn’t show up page titles…

To solve this temporarely (until next update), you can apply this patch
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6107

I tested v.6107.06 with Customizr and it works !

@lehn6 For clarity, let’s go over some points you made above.

>> I have a multisite network set up and had Buddypress installed on http://www.example.com/subsite1, as in that subsite was where the BP install was placed

So do you have something like this in your wp-config.php:
define ( 'BP_ROOT_BLOG', $blog_id ); where $blog_id is a the ID number of your subsite

>> UserPro plugin was added and network activated, then subsite1 was improperly deleted

Do you mean subsite1 was deleted by you or developer? How was it deleted? Do you have a database backup of your site before subsite1 was deleted?

>> looking to install BP to the main site and network activate. When I go to do that I find that as soon as I network activate BP the network admin dash and the main site dash are basically the same, where it says I am in the main site dash but none of the pages or posts are displayed.

How are the network admin dashboard and main site dashboard the same? Do you mean you have no access anymore to the Network Admin menus? https://codex.wordpress.org/File:dashboard.png vs https://codex.wordpress.org/File:superadmin-options.png Can you post a screenshot?

Create first a bp-custom.php file and add it to the plugins directory.

Than add these snippet, which let you handle activities which may not be commented.

function browserco_activity_nocomment( $can_comment = true, $type = '' ) {
        if ( empty( $can_comment ) ) {
                return $can_comment;
        }
		
        // list of activities which can't be commented
        $cant_comment_types = array( 
				'new_forum_topic' => 1,
				'new_forum_post' => 1,
        );
 
        return ! isset( $cant_comment_types[ $type ] );
}
add_filter( 'bp_activity_can_comment', 'browserco_activity_nocomment', 10, 2 );

Some BP activity types
activity_comment
activity_update
last_activity
friendship_created
joined_group
new_blog_post
new_avatar
updated_profile

Note that some plugins add their own activity types. To get activity type names, go to the DB and check the “type” column in _bp_activity table.

Please don’t double post. Closing this topic. The discussion continue on the first topic:

then added that to the buddypress pages

@seph
Make sure that you didn’t add the Register link under any of the main BP component pages (e.g. Members, Groups, Blogs, Activity) in the menu links.
Make sure that you didn’t add any text in your “Register” page so that BP can automagically add the Registration Form and the first group of the Profile fields in thepage.
Make sure that you’re not logged in when you go to the Register page.

I was having the same issue. When I set up my menu, I saw a section on the left that had a BuddyPress tab below the Page tab. Turns out the BuddyPress options map to the user that was logged in. I don’t think all themes show this because I have a test environment that does not show the BuddyPress tab. Check your url and make sure that you are going to domainname/groups/ (or whatever your page name is for the groups). My site was going to domainname/members/username/ when I clicked the Groups link in the menu.
