WHERE DO I ADD A PROFILE PHOTO ON BUDDY PRESS?????? where do members add profile photo’s on buddy press… ???? like the pretty one you seem to have installed?

ANSWER PLEASE. On top choices social network there is an option to change profile photo. On the best of bartercard, using the same buddypress plug in, there is no option to add a profile picture. Why?
WHERE DO I EDIT IT TO ALLOW PROFILE IMAGES?

SIMPLE QUESTION. ANSWER IT

https://buddypress.org/extend/themes/ – I am again looking at this page and this is still empty. WP repo has BP themes but none are sufficient with WP 4.1 + BP 2.1.1 – none plays nicely with horizontal menus or give good integrated appearance to an end-user who is a blogger as well as a BP user. I have been looking at premium themes, each with its own incomplete media solution – buddyboss.com and rtcamp.com Inspirebook theme – the latter appears slower on the demo but has interesting display of the activity stream in the form of cards or boxes like G+ and allows to put profile cover photo (which buddyboss do not have)

I will like to know the community’s experience with these premium themes ( as there is no core responsive eye-candy BP theme) or if there is any equivalent or better free theme in the WP repo or github (that will have support for future versions)
– which is faster
– which gives better integration with WP blogging [ none of the premium demos have “add blog post” interface – the point is that when one end-user goes to add a blog post he should not be thrown out of the BP theme]
– best responsiveness and mobile friendliness, in general and w.r.t photo uploads ( rtcamp media costs around $250 with plugin and plugin’s plugins, buddyboss probably around $50, none comes with default photo tagging = marking directly on photo )

In general pros and cons of these premium themes or an useful comparative study is what I or most users are looking for.

Speed – demo is faster for buddyboss
Eye-candy – buddyboss more, while rtcamp offers a fresh twist to display of activity stream
Privacy and Follow – dunno
Media – each has its own incomplete solution, dunno how the free or paid other plugins work into these themes
Features – buddyboss has no profile cover photo, activity display is conventional stream
Shortcomings – none allows to post a blog or event from site activity or own activity/profile page, none allows to favorite/like/star a blog post or any post from the post page to the stream or vice versa. None of their media solutions integrates into the WP media, so users always remains confused about a central repo of their uploaded picture files!

Dear Support Team

1) May I know is there any reason why there is missing Discussion Forums and User Groups under Buddy Press > Pages > Directories?

The basic that I saw after installed is only Members and Activity Stream.

2) Another missing item after setup is the Forum Setup Tab under Buddy Press > Forum Setting.

I can’t see what I saw here
https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/how-to-set-up-your-main-site-navigation-using-the-built-in-wordpress-menus/

Is there something wrong with the installation or it is because of different version?

Thank you

I have a new project in mind I’m experimenting WordPress with a few plugins to achieve what I desire. However, I haven’t been able to achieve everything exactly as I want, so your feedback is much appreciated since I am new to WordPress.

I’m building up a blog with 4 different categories where different Contributors can write new posts and interact with the Participants in the forum (better way to comment and reply to questions using the forum, than WordPress’s commenting system). These Contributors, however, must have their own public profile and allow for Participants to subscribe to their posts. So far, I’ve used different plugins:

bbPress
BuddyPress
bbPress Topics for Posts -> Allows me to automatically create a new Topic in the forum for each newly published Post. This is how the Author will interact with the participants.
BP Blog Author Profile Link -> When clicking the Author’s name, redirects to its BuddyPress member’s page.
BuddyPress Follow -> I only need a few components of BudyPress’s social capacities… Friendship is not one of them. I just want participants to follow their desired Author and be notified of his/her new blog post. This plugin allows members to just follow other members without Friendship requests.

These set of plugins solves *almost* every problem. However, I still need to change a few things like:

the ability to Allow members to follow Authors and be notified of their new posts: so far, members can only check if a member has published something by accessing its Activity tab under his/her profile page. The member is not notified of this activity…
disable the “Activity” part of BudyPress: I don’t want this on every member’s profile, but if I disable this component, members can not check for Authors’ latest blog posts…

There are others thing I must change, but these are the most important ones. How can achieve such a thing? Should I not use BuddyPress at all (and loose its bbPress nice integration)? How can I improve its notification system while still not allowing them exchange messages (public or private) and activity statuses?

I’ve search for a few plugins that could improve BuddyPress to work as I need, but could not found any. I’m not a PHP programmer neither I know how WordPress works, but, if needed, I can try to do some coding on BuddyPress… I want to avoid that, if possible, though, as it would cost me time and the solution might not really work properly…

ANY help is much appreciated! Let me know if you need more information. Thank you, in advance.

Regards,
Pedro

Hello,
anyone knows if there are any working Social Login plugin to extend BuddyPress registration/login page?

WordPress 4.0, BuddyPress 2.1.1

Hey,

I’d like to display an icon in my groups sidebar if there are new notifications related to that group.

For messages I’m using the function:

bp_total_unread_messages_count()

Is there a similar function for group notifications?

This is my code to handle displaying the groups:

<?php if ( bp_has_groups( bp_ajax_querystring( 'groups' ) . 'max=4&type=random' ) ) : ?>
      <?php while ( bp_groups() ) : bp_the_group(); ?>
        <li class="item-title">
            <div class="grid-33">
                <?php bp_group_avatar('type=thumb&width=40&height=40'); ?>
            </div>
            <div class="grid-66">
                <a>"><?php bp_group_name(); ?></a><br />
                <span><?php group_member_count() ?><span>
                <i class="fa fa-group"></i>
            </div>
        </li>
      <?php endwhile; ?>
    <?php endif; ?>

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

With the latest release of Buddypress it appears to have become possible to run buddypress on just one site, the Growing Green Cities Network, on a multisite wordpress install,

I’ve had to install 5977.02.patch for it in order to be able to look at the ‘pending users’ but the basics seem okay now.

One issue though that you might want to look into before the next release. When inviting friends the list of suggestions shows the users from ALL my multisite users. I would like this to be narrowed down to a list of only the active site’s users!

Also, and I’m not sure if this is related to buddypress anymore (I made a ticket on ‘Invite Anyone’) but when I invite somebody (through Invite Anyone, so simply entering an email address) I get a message that tells me the user is already registered. Mentioning this here anyway as I’m not sure if Invite Anyone gets a list of registered users from WordPress directly or from Buddypress

i m using https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-followers/
and my code is
<?php $args = array(‘post_type’ => user, ‘posts_per_page’ => ‘-1′);
$loop = new WP_Query($args);
while ($loop->have_posts()) : $loop->the_post(); ?>
<div id=”col3_a”><span><h2>Follow</h2></span>
<span><h2 class=”book_icon”>Bookmark</h2></span>
<?php endwhile; ?>

in this code follow button when user click on it that means user follow this post. also show how many post follow by this user and also get if a user post a post how many followers this post.
