I have installed buddypress in my website http://dreamhomeguide.in where the page layout or user profiles is just same as that of any post or page. Actually this is the default layout of page on my website.

How can I change the layout of user profiles page?

1. No need to create register.php, just copy this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\register.php
into your theme/ child theme using this approach.

Then adjust it accordingly.
You don’t say whether ‘location’ is a required field – that will affect where in the file you make your adjustments.

Will the values for ‘location’ change very often?
If not, you can use code to create both the field and all the values, so you don’t have to manually enter all the values.
And won’t have to overload register.php

Hello there!
Iam really new at this exercise, so iam really sorry if i ask some very basic questions! 😉

Here is what I try to achieve:
1) new step in creating a group, so there is ‘town’ for each group.
2) Make this new field searcheable

OK, i copy paste the example the second example i found here:

Group Extension API

It works: it creates a new tab ‘Town’ in the creation process.
BUT, going front-end Group> Town, it displays the text ‘great plugin’. I dont know how to ‘call’ the correct data.

2) Well, at this point, i would like to know how to add a field in the groups directory page.

Many Many thanks for your reply!

Hi everybody,

I have a registration page with one additional xprofile field named location.
I would like to have that field pull data from the database instead of from the profile field values. This is, when using xprofile fields the fields can be filled manually by entering the options under the profile menu in buddypress. But instead of having the field read from an static option list I would like the field to pull the data from a db.

This is what i’m thinking.
1. Create register.php and put it in my child theme under buddypress
2. Hack the register.php file using wpquery to pull values into drop down fields.

Anyone has done this before?

Any links or help is appreciated

Thank you

V.

it depends for some theme developers it just means they have tested it out and not found any major issues for others they have taken the time to do custom layouts with buddypress specific features in mind. but yes to reiterate most any theme should at least be basically compatible since buddypress takes care of its own layout automatically.

i would only add that a theme which is designed specifically for buddypress can be better depending on your situation especially if the theme dev took special time to do a better job on those buddypress specific pages.

in forum Creating & Extending

I’ve been working on moving my community from a Facebook group to my new buddypress community site over the last couple of months, considering I’m not a professional developer, I feel like it has all gone pretty well, but I’m hoping you guys can give me some ideas on how to make the most of my community’s new home.

Most of the members have made the transition from the old Facebook group without too many problems – although, I won’t lie, there have been grumblings from a fair few while they’ve been getting used to the new site!

The main thing a lot of them miss is ease of access/use on mobile phones. The biggest factor seems to be that they could access the Facebook group via the app rather than needing to use a browser and the instant notifications of mentions to their phones helped keep them feeling involved. I’m not a developer, so there’s only so much I can do, but is it possible to have buddypress site (with busy bbpress forums) running as a mobile app at the same time?

Or is there some other solution I can offer? I’ve explained about email notifications, but members don’t feel like that’s the same.

The other issue is that members are saying it’s difficult to follow threads because on Facebook the original post will appear at the top with replies below and it gets bumped up the page each time anyone replies. I know Buddypress activity posts work a bit like that, but most of the activity appearing on my homepage activity feed is from the forums. Any suggestions?

I think Buddypress is amazing, by the way, and I want to say thanks to all developers who created it and everyone here who shares their expertise to help people like me make the most of it. Love what you do guys! 🙂

Topic: "Add Friend" button on users who are already friends

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

ishvara
Participant

Hello,

I’ve recently installed BuddyPress 2.1.1 and discovered that I’m seeing the “Add Friend” button on users who are already my friends in the Friends directory (under Friends tab). By pressing it I’m unsurprisingly getting a message saying we are already friends.
The problem is that this should be a “Cancel Friendship” button, not “Add Friend”.
On the other hand, if I visit my friend’s profile, I can see the proper “Cancel Friendship” button and it works.

Has someone experienced a similar issue?
If yes, can you please give a hit ob how to fix it.

Thanks a million in advance!

The Buddypress pages are not using the default page template the rest of my site is using. How can I force it to use the default set up. That is, the sidebar and widgets on the right side. Currently, Buddypress page have the column on the left side with a widget listing all the sites pages. I don’t want that.

My site is homechoolpedia.net and it’s using the govpress.con theme

Hi

I have a standard single site installation of WordPress with Buddypress plugin where normal users are only registered members. Now I want to make the following changes.

1) Create a paid membership for business services.
2) The business section is visible only to subscribed businesses in point no 1
3) The business members should have a (extended) profile that is different than the normal users
4) The business members should be able to post jobs and adverts that is visible to normal users
5) Normal users should be able to apply to such jobs with a click and their profile should be visible to the advertiser for a period pf 30 days.

Being a novice, a step by step guide would be appreciated. Thanks

In reply to: Members Directory

Chrisw83
Participant

For anyone looking. Here is an update.

1) I have created a page and called it, Homeowners Directory. In buddypress I have selected this page to show the members directory Buddypress -> Pages -> Members. How do I change the title of this page from Members to something else?

/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-members/bp-members-loader.php

‘directory_title’ => _x( ‘Members’, ‘component directory title’, ‘buddypress’ ),

Change Members to what you need.

2) Currently on the Members Directory the members Name is shown, how do I add other profile fields here?
(Note, I am using s2member)

Add the following code below “><?php bp_member_name(); ?><br />

Change street_address to your s2member profile ID.

<?php
$id400 = bp_get_member_user_id();
$fields = get_s2member_custom_fields($id400);
echo $fields[“street_address”][“user_value”];
?>

/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/members-loop.php

4) When you click on and view someones profile, what file do I need to edit to add a Return button to go back to the members directory?

/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/member-header.php

danbp

Have you tested with one of the bullet proven 2013 or 2014 themes ?

Some Dynamix related topics can be found here.

– Members import – I used it two other times a year ago for different lists with no problem.
A year ago means datas from BP ~1.7 and the reason why i mentionned the ticket.

my issue isn’t with avatars
I have a doubt 😉 : on your members directory, the default avatar is gravatar who doesn’t appear. Avatars may not be the issue but are related to profiles.

Try to use Mystery Man instead. if he appears as default avatar, there is perhaps a conflict with media upload or permalinks.

The other thing i observe, is that you and the other user who’s profile access is ok, are the only one using a username in the URL. All other members have first and last name.

Do you use a custom function or a plugin to get this ?

About wpengine, is this already the case ?

hi @kristinrutten,

have you imported users from an older wp site ?
Are you hosted on wpengine ? (toc toc @hnla ? )

Try to use the repair tool: dashboard > tools

What about avatar settings ? dashboard > general > discussion

About plugins
buddypress toolbar was intended for 1.5/1.6/1.7 – outdated now.
BuddyPress Members Import did you use it more as 1 time ?
On a default install, WP and BP users are in the same table: wp_users
In BP settings you can sync WP and BP users. Extended profile fields are stored in 4 other tables: _xprofile_somename
And WP has is own import tools…
IMO you can deactivate them.

Deactivate all plugins, but BP and activate 2013 theme. At this stage the avatars should appear.

hi @kris35,
in brief: no ! 😉

In details, read sub title here:
https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

You can use whatever you want as theme since BP 1.7 Actual version is 2.1 !
And if not satified by the layout, you can modify it manually.

Suggest you visit some existing BP site to get an idea.

Topic: Is it possible to prevent deleting a group when its group admin deletes himself?

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

aglaonika

I recently recognized when a user deletes himself from BuddyPress, then the groups where he is the group admin are also completely deleted. Is it possible to prevent this somehow? I know that every group needs at least one admin, so maybe it would be possible to assign the admin rights of the deleted user’s group to a default user. Do you have any idea how I could achieve this? Thanks.

I have Buddypress installed on the Dynamik WP theme, but I wanted to ask about Buddypress themes. With the theme I am using now, I’m having to do a lot of customization – if I used a Buddypress theme, would the layout be more automatic? I just downloaded a free theme (Frisco) to see how it would look but I get a message telling me I need to download the parent bp-default framework (?), but I can’t find it anywhere. I want to try a free theme out before I think about buying a premium BP theme.

If I used a specific BP theme, would the customization be less work? For example, the default BP profiles are very basic. Would a BP theme automatically update the look (already built in) or would it still look like the default profile?

Thanks,

Kris

WordPress 4.0 running DynamiX theme
Buddypress 2.1.1
http://LeadershipCentralMontana.com

I am getting a Page Not Found error when trying to access individual member pages for everyone except myself and one other member.

So far, I have…
-scoured this support forum in search of an answer with no luck
-compared user accounts and see no difference between the member I can view and those I cannot
-tried deactivating plugins one at a time with no change
-tried changing permalinks, saving, clearing the cache, changing them back to the BP setting (post name)and clearing the cache again with no effect

I am using bbPress as well as several BP plugins, including: BuddyPress Facebook, BuddyPress Members Import, BuddyPress Toolbar, BuddyPress Twitter, BuddyPress user account type PRO, and GD bbPress Attachments. Other plugins include Advanced Excerpt, Akismet, All-in-One Event Calendar by Time.ly, Official StatCounter Plugin and WPBakery Visual Composer.

I was not having this problem before but haven’t touched the site in quite a while so I don’t know when the change happened. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 🙂
