BuddyPress.org

Hey,

I am seriously stuck with this one, so any help will be severely appreciated!

I have a BuddyPress install, which I have created several times on different machines with the same results…

Main site: http://gdnm.org – WPMS Installation – Subdomain setup

BuddyPress site: http://network.gdnm.org – blog id #2

I have setup my BuddyPress subdomain using BP_ROOT_BLOG correctly, and my WordPress install uses DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE to set the root site, however both BuddyPress and WordPress seem to use siteurl() to get the current site which means that all registrations are relative to the BP_ROOT_BLOG not the DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE url.

This has the result that through wp-signup.php you get http://subdomain.gdnm.org and via BuddyPress you get http://subdomain.network.gdnm.org which is not what I want.

Please help, I have literally tried everything even filtering the wpmu/bp_validate_blog_signup and it still doesn’t work, so desperate to fix this as on Monday 300-600 people signup and I don’t want to have to edit them all manually.

Thanks

Tom

I added some custom registration fields to my user profiles (so, during registration, the users have to enter some extra info). How do I HIDE some of these fields in a user’s profile?

For example, I may ask for a user’s phone number during registration …. but I don’t want ANYONE except our forum admins to be able to see the phone number. So, I need to hide the phone number everywhere (except the WordPress admin).

Can anyone help me do this?

NOTE: I don’t think this is relevant … but here is some info on my site and BuddyPress: I was told that BuddyPress uses BBPress 1.5 for it’s forums. So, I was told I should run BBPress 2.0 separate from BuddyPress (and disable the forum component).

When BuddyPress is activated on the subsite on WordPress multisite, WordPress registration form is still active, which can be accessed via non_bp_root_blog/wp-signup.php. I’m using WP 3.2.1 with BP 1.2.9 and BP 1.5 (trunk).

Anyone know how to disable WordPress registration form on all blogs when BuddyPress is active?

UPDATE: Woke up this morning went to my site and everything was back to normal!
Wordpress 3.1.1
Buddypress whatever is the latest (can never remember the number)

Was playing around with some codes to be able to reach Edit Profile from Nav menu and I succeeded in adding it to the menu (although it doesn’t works just refreshes the Home page) but in doing so I lost all of the pages in my Nav bar and I can’t get them back.
So far I have tried:
Installing BP default theme (they show up there)
Reinstalling my theme WP Simple Community (they don’t show up)
Deleting the codes I installed
Deleting the entire functions.php file and uploaded a fresh one
Recreating the pages
Unpublishing and republishing the missing pages
The code I used is below:
function user_row_actions_bp_view($actions, $user_object) {

global $bp;
$actions = ‘ID) . ‘”>’ . __(‘View BP’) . ‘‘;

return $actions;
}
add_filter(‘user_row_actions’, ‘user_row_actions_bp_view’, 10, 2);

I also used these codes but it seems they didn’t leave any traces behind

Disable User Activation

function disable_validation( $user_id ) {
global $wpdb;
$wpdb->query( $wpdb->prepare( “UPDATE $wpdb->users SET user_status = 0 WHERE ID = %d”, $user_id ) );
}
add_action( ‘bp_core_signup_user’, ‘disable_validation’ );
function fix_signup_form_validation_text() {
return >false;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_registration_needs_activation’, ‘fix_signup_form_validation_text’ );

Display User Name in Member Directory

/* Display Username in Directory */
function my_member_username() {
global $members_template;
return $members_template->member->user_login;
}
add_filter(‘bp_member_name’,’my_member_username’);

*Sigh*—this seems to be a common issue, but I’ve been banging my head against it for a few hours now, and feel like I’m starting to read the same forum-post-loop over and over again, so I thought I’d try and ask myself, and see if anyone would be kind enough to try and help me out.

I’m working on a more-or-less brand new BP site, with all plugins turned off. I’ve got BuddyPress version 1.3-bleeding (from SVN) running on WordPress 3.2-RC4 (the latest nightly). When BuddyPress is disabled, I can go to mysite.com/wp-signup.php and everything works as expected.

In the admin options, everything registration-related is turned on (I think) and the “normal” WordPress Multisite wp-signup page happily tells me, “Greetings Site Administrator! You are currently allowing “all” registrations. To change or disable registration go to your Options page.”

So far, so good. When I activate BuddyPress, though, wp-signup.php redirects to /register (which it’s supposed to do, right?) but I get the message, “User registration is currently not allowed.” instead of a signup form.

If I look under Sites > All Sites > / > Settings, “Users Can Register” is indeed set to “1”—I’m not sure what else to poke at from here. Does my “Register” page need to include code? shortcode? anything? Or is it just supposed to be a blank page? There’s got to be something dumb I’m overlooking, right? Anyone know what it might be?

Thanks!

Now that I got the verification emails to work I’m having a few minor issues with the registration process.

1. Verification email has to be sent manually from the admin panel. I don’t want to have to activate every account but I do want some abilities such as chat only available to registered members.

2. Once member receives verification and password emails and logs into account they do not show up as logged in instead the log in screen reappears. This does not happen to me when I log in as administrator.

3. Members have no way to access profile page or to change avatar.
UPDATE: Now I realize these functions are in the admin bar which I disabled. Is there a way to move those functions to the navigation bar?

4. On the members page the new members @ shows up as unverified_(random code) as opposed to their name. I just noticed in the admin panel that the unverified_random code was assigned as the members user name and can’t be changed!
UPDATE: Realized that the unverified thing was happening because I had to approve members account. Is it still possible to have people sign up without having to be manually approved?

Hope someone can help.

Hi,
I recently installed WordPress with multi site and buddy press on my laptop. But I can’t figure out where a visitor would go to register.
I don’t see anything in the back end that would enable/disable registration either. Am I simply missing it? Please advice. Any input would be appreciated.

I’m developing on WAMP/WinXP,SP3/WP v3.1.1/BP v1.2.8.

I have reverted to the default BP theme and disabled all other plugins. I have checked my httpd.conf and mod_rewrite is enabled and working correctly.

Everything is working fine except the URL http://localhost/wordpress/registration/ – that URL results in the BP theme 404 page being displayed.

I have combed these forums and Google and cannot find an answer. Any ideas?
