BuddyPress.org

Is yor site allowed to send mails ?
Deactivate buddypress and regisrer from WP. If you don’t receive the mail you have to get in contact with your hoster or read the host documentation.

Good read here, with some wise recommendation from @hnla

Hi @mmadden,

not sure i understand what you want to achieve. Are you creating a register page from scratch ?
Anyway….
Open the original BP register file (/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/register.php). It contains many placeholders and conditionnals

So, for the mandatory NAME xprofile group (the only one you use), you have line 65

if ( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) ) : if ( bp_has_profile( array( 'profile_group_id' => 1, 'fetch_field_data' => false ) ) ) : while ( bp_profile_groups() ) : bp_the_profile_group();

--- blah---

Line 75 sit this placeholder do_action( 'bp_custom_profile_edit_fields_pre_visibility' ); where you can hook your additionnal information.

Line 98 there’s another one: do_action( 'bp_custom_profile_edit_fields' ); just above this function:

<p class="description"><?php bp_the_profile_field_description(); ?></p>

In register.php, the section you speak about goes from line 50 to 112
From /***** Extra Profile Details ******/ to </div><!-- #profile-details-section -->

Of course, you can also add your own placeholder to your register template.

Sorry if i’m wrong.

> it seems as complicated as re-writing the bp_get_activities

It’s not even close to being that complicated.

This examples are re members, but should give you an idea of the general approach to a custom process:

Members Loop

BP_User_Query

If I was doing this, I would write a custom function(s) to gather the activity ids.
And that function would most likely contain one or more custom db queries.

If you are unable to write such queries, you may want to consider hiring a developer.

Oops !

i’m customize the buddypress template files in bp-legacy folder in buddypress plugin directory.

Don’t that, as at next BP update your work will be overridden.

Message URL’s are built dynamically. So you can’t fetch them diretly from within the template. You need a custom function to do that and use it from your theme’s functions.php.

Read in file bp-messages/bp-messages-classes.php

Read this topic for some inspiration.

Using firefox on http://animalsfunnypictures.com/members/sanaa/ I can see entry-content img { which has a width: 510px if i disable it in firefox it becomes the ‘normal’ size.

This is coming from Marla theme’s style.css on line 1464 – see for yourself…

have you salt keys in your wp-content.php ?

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18771957/wordpress-does-not-properly-display-css-file

and use the given script to check the db.

aside, @r-a-y responded on the ticket. Unsurprisingly, like me, he couldn’t replicate the issue

Which theme do you use ?
And have you already created a child-theme ?

Theme Compatibility & Template Files

Generally such modification can be done by CSS.

There might actually be more things you’d need to do. For example, the bp_get_message_thread_avatar() function uses bp_core_fetch_avatar() so you would need to filter that using bp_get_message_thread_avatar etc.

Unless someone else knows of an easier way, it seems as though it’ll be a big task of going through everything. You’d also need to be comfortable with PHP.

Alternatively, you could try disabling avatars by adding this to your bp-custom.php file

define( 'BP_SHOW_AVATARS', false );

Note: I’ve not tested that, I’m just going on what I see at the beginning of the bp_core_fetch_avatar() function. i.e:

// If avatars are disabled for the root site, obey that request and bail
if ( ! buddypress()->avatar->show_avatars )
   return;

ok, supposing you did a translation file (even if you use english by default) to test the above solution and assuming it hasn’t work, let’s try the hard way.

Add this to functions.php, it will force gettext to translate the string.

function bpfr_force_translation( $translated, $original_text, $domain ) {
		
	if ( 'buddypress' !== $domain )  
	return $translated; 
	
	switch ( $original_text ) {
		
		case 'Registering for this site is easy, just fill in the fields below and we'll get a new account set up for you in no time.':
		return 'Join PushkarGuide.com - share your experience, thoughts about this pretty town Pushkar (INDIA).';
		
		default:
		return $translated;
	}
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'bpfr_force_translation', 10, 3 );

If it doesn’t work i have no other solution to propose.

If your theme doesn’t explicitly use BuddyPress templates then the default templates will be used. For a quick look at the templates check out the GitHub repo.

I’m guessing your theme doesn’t explicitly use the templates so what you’d have to do is create them yourself. The general idea is to create a folder called buddypress inside your theme and then add the templates you’d like to customise to that folder. So for example, you’d end up with /wp-content/themes/your-theme/buddypress/. Everything goes inside there.

It will do, sort of indirectly, actually. For more info on how it works, check out the Template Hierarchy article.

Hi @elshobokshy

Take a look at Customizing BuddyPress Avatars

Hi @multimartin

I just tried searching the WP plugin repo and came across an old plugin that may be of some help. Take a look at Remove Avatars
