Hello,
I like to disable the auto suggest in the private messages or let the auto suggest only show the names of a specific group. I could not find the solution on the forum. Maybe someone knows how to do this?
Kind regards 🙂

Hi All

Hoping you can help. (•_•)

On our website, we use a plugin to automate the posting of news topics to one of my forums.

The plugin works well and the new topics are posted fine – The thing is – Even though the forum posts appear fine on the front end – The new forum topic activity is not being registered in the activity feed.

If I manually post a new topic in the same forums (but on the front end (not using the plugin), the new topic is registered in the activity feed as it should.

Any suggestions on what might be missing. Is there a hook that needs to be triggered that may be being missed by the plugin when posting to forums automatically via the backend?

Cheers for any insight

Hi,
I have tried the following code as referenced elsewhere in the forum but it is not working and I am getting the following message in the console of my local host under debug.

//Change order of Buddypress tabs

function my_change_profile_tab_order() {
	global $bp;
	$bp->bp_nav['media']['position'] = 5;
	$bp->bp_nav['activity']['position'] = 10;
	$bp->bp_nav['profile']['position'] = 20;
	$bp->bp_nav['courses']['position'] = 30;
	$bp->bp_nav['forums']['position'] = 40;
	$bp->bp_nav['groups']['position'] = 50;
	$bp->bp_nav['friends']['position'] = 60;
	$bp->bp_nav['notifications']['position'] = 70;
	$bp->bp_nav['messages']['position'] = 80;
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'my_change_profile_tab_order', 999 );

This is the message in the console, I think something has changed in the updates?

Hello,

I’m new to wordpress/buddypress and this issue has been a real head scratcher for me.

Basically, I want to update the site-wide activity tab to display only status updates (“Post in: profile” status updates, specifically). So no group updates, new forum topics, forum replies, etc. However, I still want all of the relevant activity to display under the “My Groups” tab whenever there’s new group activity.

I’ve seen others recommend hiding the updates I don’t want to see using CSS, but that unforunately ends up hiding the activity across all tabs.

Does anyone know the code I can add to my bp-custom.php file that would accomplish what I need?

Thank you in advance!

I’m struggling a bit after my install and testing.

I think I’ve been through all the settings, documentation and support forum but just cant see it.

How do I activate/create a like button or isn’t there one?

I get comment/favourite/delete options but no like.

I think people coming to a new community site would expect to be able to like other stuff and its counter intuitive for it not to be there.

Yours Simon

Hello developers, I have a problem and I need to solve it. I have a small forum, when a person registers on my site, the client receives a successful mail message, for example, a welcome mail, but when he clicks on the links and his link, such as a profile or login, he is transferred to the default registration page of WordPress, and this is not what I want. I need to move it to the registration page of the theme,Also (unsubscribe) on the footer message, goes to the default registration page. This is not good for me how do I fix this? Although the theme supports your product 100%. I think the problem is in the short code in all mails. Or what do you expect? Please help me . I know that you are very busy and I pray that God will help you in your work

Hi,

I’m experiencing some really odd behaviour when trying to change the slug for my group directory and redirect traffic.

My set-up is: BP 9.1.1; BBp 2.6.6, WP 5.8.1

Short explanation:

• traffic to a pre-change (/[old]/[groupname]) group url is being redirected to (/[new]/[groupname]/forum)
• This happens regardless of whether:
  • There is a specific redirect in place
  • There is a regex redirect in place (/[old]/(.*) to /[new]/$1/)
  • There is no redirect at all
• My redirect provider – Rank Math – can’t explain this.

I’ve not modified my hta, and the only other redirect rules in page on the site relate to post-login behaviour. It seems there’s something deep within Buddypress, BBpress or WordPress which is driving this, but I have no idea what.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? I dare not make this change on my live site without resolving and having a clear idea what’s behind it.

Appreciate any suggestions…

disable group component from Setting >> BuddyPress and bbpress plugin for forums.

[deaf25]

I do not want to offer Members groups and forums so how do i disable those or do I just remove the menu? what is the best way?

Thanks

[VibeThemes]

You can use standard WP Export and export forums , topics, replies. To use the STatic site generator plugin to convert your forum into static html/css pages.

[Naomi]

OK, I switched the slug of my forum to “forums” and it seems to have fixed the issue. Not sure if maybe It was originally plural and I switched it to “forum” and that messed things up. Anyway, it’s resolved by switching it to the plural form.

[Naomi]

It works for Events and Groups, but not for the Forum page for some reason. It’s also strange that for that page only, setting Astra theme’s page settings to “no sidebar” doesn’t work. I wonder if it’s something with bbPress?

I have been scheduling posts for a while now and everything works fine EXCEPT that images included in the posts seem to disappear after a while. I am not sure why.

They will show as an attached image in addition to the embedded image, but I don’t need them both. If I remove the attached image, it also removes the embedded one.

What is the simplest way to have an image embedded in a scheduled post when I have to create those posts in the backend using the WP editor (instead of the forum itself)?

Here is an example of a simple post that I schedule every month and you can see the image will be different every month.

What are you working on (in August 2021)?

[shanebp]

BuddyPress does not include forums.
If you are using bbPress, please post in their support forums.

I’m using buddy press with a memberpress integration and a memberoni child theme in wordpress 5.8 and the latest version of buddy press. local menu bars have suddenly disappeared from my group page and profile page. for example, on the group page I used to see Home/Forum/members/Invite/Email options/Manage. This whole menu is now missing. On the profile page, the menu bar listing profile/notifications/messages/etc/etc/etc is also missing. I compared the live site against our staging site and those menus are still present in the staging site. Buddy Press settings are the same in both environments, except there are some weird phantom checkmarks in the dev environment. I have checked every setting I can think of and have no idea where these menus have gone or where I should look. Am not a developer. Help?

How do I get both sidebars (left and right) on individual group pages (not groups directory)?

E.g: I can set sidebars on https://something.something/groups/ on both sides from Appearance >> Customize >> Widgets >> Left Sidebar / Right Sidebar / Groups Directory Right Sidebar

But I couldn’t set sidebars on https://something.something/groups/some-group/

On the widgets section, I have an option of “Groups Single Group Sidebar”, but it shows only on the right side. I want on both sides.

Our users are unable to turn off notifications to the forum. Even though they go under subscriptions and completely turn off everything and they go under settings->email and turn off all notifications, they are still sending. Any suggestions?

[shanebp]

Those queries are all related to bbPress.
Have you tried posting your issue on the support forums for bbPress?

Hello Guys,

I am creating a post subscription. When any user subscribe to any post I want to send them notifications about comments and post activities. I am adding custom notifications to buddypress. Notifications are adding but in frontend the title of notification is not showing. I checked many forums but did not find any solution.

Below is my code:

public function __construct() {
      
      add_filter( 'bp_notifications_get_registered_components', array($this,'custom_filter_notifications_get_registered_components'),20 );
      add_filter( 'bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user', array($this,'custom_format_buddypress_notifications'), 10, 7 );
      add_action( 'wp_insert_comment', array($this,'bp_custom_add_notification'), 99, 2 );
   }

For custom component

public function custom_filter_notifications_get_registered_components( $component_names = array() ) {
 
       // Force $component_names to be an array
       if ( ! is_array( $component_names ) ) {
           $component_names = array();
       }
    
       // Add 'custom' component to registered components array
       array_push( $component_names, 'custom' );
    
       // Return component's with 'custom' appended
       return $component_names;
   }

For notification formatting

public function custom_format_buddypress_notifications( $content, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items, $format = 'string', $action, $component ) {
     	   
         if ( 'custom_action' === $action ){
           $comment = get_comment( $item_id );
        
           $custom_title = $comment->comment_author . ' commented on the post ' . get_the_title( $comment->comment_post_ID );
           $custom_link  = get_comment_link( $comment );
           $custom_text = $comment->comment_author . ' commented on your post ' . get_the_title( $comment->comment_post_ID );
    
           // WordPress Toolbar
           if ( 'string' === $format ) {
               $data_to_return = apply_filters_ref_array( 'custom_filter', '<a href="' . esc_url( $custom_link ) . '" title="' . esc_attr( $custom_title ) . '">' . esc_html( $custom_text ) . '</a>', $custom_text, $custom_link );
               
    
           // Deprecated BuddyBar
           } else {
               $data_to_return = apply_filters_ref_array( 'custom_filter', array(
                   'text' => $custom_text,
                   'link' => $custom_link
               ), $custom_link, (int) $total_items, $item_id, $secondary_item_id );
           }
           
         return $data_to_return;     
      } else{
         return $action;
      } 
   }

For adding notification

public function bp_custom_add_notification( $comment_id, $comment_object ) {
 
      $subscribed_user =  get_post_meta( $comment_object->comment_post_ID , 'subscribed_user',true ); 
      
      if(!empty($subscribed_user) && is_array($subscribed_user)){
         for ($i=0; $i < count($subscribed_user); $i++) { 
      		 if ( bp_is_active( 'notifications' ) ) {
                  bp_notifications_add_notification( array(
                     'user_id'           => $subscribed_user[$i],
                     'item_id'           => $comment_id,
                     'component_name'    => 'custom',
                     'component_action'  => 'custom_action',
                     'date_notified'     => bp_core_current_time(),
                     'is_new'            => 1,
                   ) );
      		 }
         }
      }   
   }

Please suggest best possible way to fix this issue.

Thank You

does youzify have a free forum? I use their free version

[shanebp]

Please send questions re youzify to their support forums.
And / or send your issue to the creator of whatever theme it is that you’re using.
Your chance of finding a solution on the BP forums is very small

btw- you can use your browser’s inspector tool to examine the css in context.
