BuddyPress.org

I’ve upgraded to BuddyPress 1.7.2 in my staging area and the update went smooth. Most functions seem to work fine. However, when I tried registering a new user the above filter didn’t work. BuddyPress sent the standard activation e-mail to the new user’s e-mail instead of the admin e-mail (please read the first post in this thread to review the new member process I have).

The function bp_core_signup_send_validation_email_to is in bp-members/bp-members-functions.php on line 1361 and I’ve verified that it’s unchanged since BuddyPress 1.6.4 which is what I’m running now. Does anyone know if there’s been any other change affecting this? Thanks!

To clarify on my type above:

This code does NOT work (can’t reorder the forums tab):

$bp->bp_options_nav[$bp->groups->current_group->slug]['forum']['position'] = '99';

But this code DOES work (I can reorder the Home tab)

$bp->bp_options_nav[$bp->groups->current_group->slug]['home']['position'] = '99';

Thank you again for any help you can provide!

Also in case of a visible category “Gruppenforen” the behaviour is identical.

Meanwhile I did find, that user/template-tags.php did have a known issue. But patching that did not change behaviour at a specific way to reproduce the problem:

User X is member of group A, but not group B. Both groups do have hidden forums. Both Forums are in a hidden Category “Gruppenforen” (German for group forums).
When User X goes to the forum of group A and then follows the link in the group to “Gruppenforen” and onlky at that moment the widget for recent topics shows all topics in “Gruppenforen” includigts those of group B, that user X is not supposed to see.

Considering adding a tab to the profile loader file.
* BuddyPress XProfile Loader

Would this be the best method?

Your timing is immaculate. 🙂 I just spotted a help file saying that I needed to delete old bp files in the theme before upgrading to 1.70. So I’d turned it off and was looking at the theme, which is Weaver II. Also searched the Weaver site for issues and they all point back at BP. 🙁

I memory is bad on this but I either upgraded to BP 1.71 first before changing to Weaver II, from an older theme called Elbee Elgee, or or visa versa, moved to Weaver and then upgraded from the older version of BP.

Either way, I didn’t have the old BP template pack installed, nor do I see any of files I was told to delete at this link in step 3: https://codex.buddypress.org/bp-17-upgrading-template-packed-themes/

3. Delete the six (6) BP folders transferred to your theme’s folder in server: /activity, /blogs, /forums, /groups, /members, and /registration. If you have a header-buddypress.php, sidebar-buddypress.php and/or a footer-buddypress.php file, delete those too via s/FTP or control panel.

My first action was to roll back the site a week. All the plugins were still current after putting the old database back other than the theme rolled back. Was just rebuilding the theme first before turning BP back on. which will be in a few more minutes…

Oops. I forgot to mention that I’m using the buddypress Activity Plus as a plugin to post links, and multimedia. Its their latest version.

All other plugins were turned off but problem persists.

Will check with WPMU, the creators of Activity Plus as well on this, but just an additional note, no posts, or comments are working…

Hi there

One more issue (it’s killing me). Despite having the registration disabled, emails for registration and the whole activation process stayed from buddypress. So I use WP registration template but get buddypress emails and activation – which is even NOT WORKING!

Can you help me disable whole f*ckin BuddyPress registration&activation process so I can use only WP registration + its emails and everything?

I appreciate your help.
Thank you!

Hi bb-help, thanks again for your reply, really appreciate it, as i am abit panick.
here the full story,

i started off with a buddypress theme and buddypress, I do my development from there to fit my needs, and i install plugin and about to done with my site after several weeks. Well the buddypress folder was renamed to buddypress2 when i first started developing on this site. everything all fine and working well. I then install this plugin = https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-xprofile-custom-fields-type/, and then error start appear at the top of my backend and frontend, so i immediately rename this folder in ftp, it got deactivated, but error still shown, then i delete this plugin, error still shown, then i deactivate buddypress, error still shown, deleted buddypress, error still shown, and i also replace functions.php in my wp-includes, and here where i stop. the error was still there.

hi again, yes , but footer.php if i put the ads code ,it will appear in all pages, which the layout is different from my buddypress theme. I only left with showing ads at the footer of single member and group page.

I think the error mean it is searching for buddypress, without it,the error is shown, how to solve it?

Hi bb-help, we meet again,

I uninstall this plugin and buddypress but the error is still shown at the top, any solution?

M using wordpress 3.5.1. and buddypress 1.7.2…. my issue is that after installing buddypress when i click profiles messaging all such menues the page opens with following errors

HTTP Error 404.0 – Not Found
The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

@mercime @hnla
I posted this topic in miscellaneous so I don’t know why it shows up in installing buddypress. Sorry guys, I don’t know what caused it.

hi hi bb-help,
thanks for your reply

I am using a different theme, and i am implementing with coding, but i do not know which files to edit to affect the footer of buddypress, like for the header there is member-header.php and group-header.php file
