I’m getting the tag <span class=”atwho-query”> auto-added to the last email address in a BuddyPress message. It didn’t tag anyone as a user, it just added this class automatically to a surrounding span tag.

Is there anyway to stop this behavior? Or at least recognize that a @username =/= an@email.addy ?

Thank you for any help in the right direction!

ps. I also commented on an old thread over here on bbpress and thanks to mod @robin-w for pointing me over here!

Thank you WBCOM, is it possible for forum posts?
I have a forum page where folks post songs via YouTube.
It just shows up with their member avatar on the left and the post title.
Is there a way at all to have the Youtube thumbnail to the left, then title, who posted.
But the most important ids the thumbnail.
Thank you so very much!

I installed buddy press, followed the manuals and linked the registration and activation pages. When calling the link to the registration page, the page is properly displayed. After filling in the information and clicking on “Complete Sign Up”, the user just gets redirected to the landing page.

There is no new user created in the user in wordpress and also no confirmation email is sent. However, when creating a user in the administration console within wordpress, users can be created and also registration emails are sent to the user.

Any idea how to investigate this problem? All the tricks from other forum entries I have already tried (different themes, activate allow anyone to register etc).

Installation:
Wordpress 5.7.1
Theme: Twenty Seventeen Child Theme, but also ExS
BuddyPress: Version 7.3.0

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP

I did’nt find anything on bbpress forum

[Varun Dubey]

@nomadsland check once in bbpress.org forums

[silverax]

whenever I try to edit my profile in the buddypress forum, the server forum returns:

“Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.”

I tried to logout and re-login, and even installed a new browser to avoid cache issues.

For the second time in 3 months, all registered users in our forum have received the same private message from a new (fake) user. It would be good to limit private messages recipients to 2 at a time. How can I set BuddyPress to do that ?

Our forum: durecomemuri.it/forum/

WordPress v. 5.7.1
BuddyPress v. 7.3.0

So this seem to be the forum that has current users talking.

Issue: Buddypress widgets and Buddypress/BP plugins for media not working correctly for updates.

Discussion: So using the latest activities there are a few thing seen.

Creating Activity
• when updates selected any activity with an image will not show, so latest list is not correct
• when gallery updates selected activities will show latest but only if no images attached, so latest list is not correct.

Buddypress version: 7.3.0
Wordpress Version: 5.4.5 but have tested with newer version
Plugin: Mediapress 1.5.1 (able to control what media can be added to community)
other Plugins: n/a have disabled in testing

Solution: None found so far

Alternate: Alter code at plugin/level – have not done(but able to if need/able to write new code)

Theme Goal: Achieved – twitter/like community.

The forums for bbPress are here.

I’m trying to understand if there will be an issue with using BuddyPress groups and SEO. From my reading on SEO the closer a page is to the main domain the better. For example, if I have a forum topic about Butterflies and I was just using bbPress the URL would be:

MySite.com/forum/topics/butterflies/

The page “butterflies” would be two jumps away from MySite.com

But if I use the feature to add my forum inside of a group the URL changes to this:

MySite.com/group/group-name/forums/topics/butterflies/

The page “butterflies” would be four jumps away from MySite.com

I was wondering if anyone knows if using forums inside of BuddyPress will have a negative impact on SEO and if there’s a way around it by having the URL structure different, reducing the number of jumps.

1- BuddyPress does not bundle any theme itself
2- theme-specific questions
3- ideally you can view it at domain.com/forums/single-forum-slug or domain.com/forums
to isolate any theme-specific limitation you can also test with WordPress default 2021 theme.
4- theme my login plugin provides role base redirect and also when you are using different login pages, they act differently.

>Hopefully I’m at the right place for this question.

No, these are the forums for BuddyPress.
You should send your question to BuddyBoss or BuddyForms.

I am wanting to find somewhere that lists what is and isn’t shown in the activity stream myself. I want to be sure that private is indeed private. Thought I’d start my search in the forums, will see if anything is said in the documentation too.

I am trying to insert the forum loop card below the single reply page, but bbp_forums() returns null, so anything is showed, how can I solve it?

[vincenzon617]

It seems as though no one replies on this forum, quite annoying, but I have found the solution and will post it if others need to do this.

Add this to your ‘functions.php’ file:

function mb_profile_menu_tabs(){
global $bp;

unset($bp->bp_nav['forums']);

unset($bp->bp_nav['notifications']);
	
unset($bp->bp_nav['profile']);
	
}
add_action('bp_setup_nav', 'mb_profile_menu_tabs', 201);

I just installed BuddyPress 7.2.1 on a development site running Elementor 3.1.4 and Elementor Pro 3.2.0 on WordPress 5.7. I discovered that BuddyPress causes the Elementor editor to hang when you attempt to edit an element. Deactivating BuddyPress immediately restored standard functionality. I am also running bbPress 2.6.6 and have had no issues with that. I had already configured a number of BuddyPress group forums and was really looking forward to using it, but this is a deal-breaker if I can’t use the Elementor editor! I really hope the conflict can be resolved as we’re hoping to go live with the site soon. I can share the url and answer questions in more detail if we are able to continue this conversation offline. Let me know how to submit a support ticket or email support if so. Thank you!

Hi,

I would like to edit the text of the activity page via my BuddyPress profile. The page itself shows the replies to topics that the users have done on my bbPress forum. The text currently is “[Username] replied to the topic [Topic_Name] in the forum [Forum_Name]”. I would like to edit this text to how I want, but I can’t seem to find the file that it is located in. Using inspect element it says that the text is in the class ‘activity-header’. Any help will be appreciated!

WP 5.6, BP 7.2.1, CERA (child theme)
On my dashboard, I keep getting a warning about my files are public accessible. Neither The Internet nor this forum can help me with a solution.

I have ftp-access, but htaccess changes will not affect my site, since it is not an Apache server.
Please advice.

Best wishes,

Hello,

I use define( ‘BP_GROUPS_DEFAULT_EXTENSION’, ‘forum’ ); to show forum nav-item as default in single group.

I also have groups without forums where I need the home nav-item.

How can I do that?

I tried this in functions.php:
if( bp_group_is_forum_enabled() )
define( ‘BP_GROUPS_DEFAULT_EXTENSION’, ‘forum’ );
}
It is not working.

I am searching for hours and have very little php knowledge.

May anybody has a solution for this?

Thanks a lot.

I am currently using bbPress for forums and BuddyPress for my user profiles and in the profile there is an icon that can be pressed to display the users subscribed to bbPress topics. Is there a way I can add the contents of this page to a seperate page? Like a watchlist for example so the user can see what topics they have subsribed to – without having to go into the profile. I’m not sure if this is a BuddyPress feature or a bbpress one, however it is implemented already so I assume it is (I just want to move it to a seperate page). Is this possible?

Many thanks!

[vincenzon617]

Hi there,
I am not sure if this has already been answered so apologies if it has (I cannot find an answer). What i would like to do is remove some of the icons and menus from my BuddyPress profile page. Currently I have 6 buttons on the profile (‘Profile’,’Activity’,’Notifications’,’Friends’,’Forums’,’Settings’). These have sub menus as well, for example if I choose ‘Profile’, its submenus are ‘Home’, ‘View’, ‘Change Profile Picture’.
What I would like to do is remove everything but ‘Friends’, ‘Forums’ and ‘Settings’. Then I would like only “replies created” to be shown when the user clicks on the ‘Forums’ button. I am currently using bbPress within my site for the forums if that helps (I would add an image but I am having trouble doing so).
If anyone could help me with this or point me in the right direction to achieve what I would like that would be great!
Many thanks.

I believe I should have put this in the How To and Troubleshooting forum. But after posting it there, I realize that I can’t delete this post. If one of the admins could delete this duplicate, that would be great.

I’m thinking of writing a loop that iterates through all the groups and checks the last activity and then checks if the time of that activity is the same as or earlier than the ‘last_activity’ meta for that group. This is because not all plugins that add activities trigger groups_update_groupmeta($id,'last_activity', bp_core_current_time()); and so my groups by last activity is incorrect.

I’ve tried Googling this and found forum posts with links “to the codex” that are actually 404s.

So, I am asking. How do I loop through the groups and can I then look at the last activity for that group to get the time/date?

Also, side question why does groups_record_activity() not update that?
