BuddyPress.org

Thanks for your response Chouf1

I set my homepage as a static page and used the Activity page as the homepage. I think that’s why it’s not working. It’s looking for /activity/reply, but it’s named ‘home’. Where do I change the url for the reply page? It doesn’t show up in Dashboard – Pages because it’s a BuddyPress theme page.

Ideally, I’d like a registration where I am sent an email, and then I approve them. This would keep the community private, rather than anyone and everyone self-registering.

The permalinks I chose are the postname option. That’s pretty standard on websites isn’t it?

thanks sir,, but where is Private Messaging and friends list pages sir ?? must download plugin again ??

For anyone looking for same snippet, put the following code in your functions.php

/*remove email addresses from private messages*/

function wdw_remove_email_from_private_msg($message){

$replacement = “[Warning: Contact removed]”;

/*if you dont want any replacement text, replace the above line with

$replacement = “”;

*/

return preg_replace(“/[^@\s]*@[^@\s]*\.[^@\s]*/”, $replacement, $message);

/*the code is short and works in most cases but not full proof. Check */

}

add_filter(‘messages_message_content_before_save’, ‘wdw_remove_email_from_private_msg’);

add_filter(‘messages_message_subject_before_save’, ‘wdw_remove_email_from_private_msg’);

OK, I looked into the code, and this is something I’ll need to go bring up on the bbPress forums as it’s an issue with the extend buddypress component of the bbPress plugin.

I opened a ticket here: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2140. Hopefully this helps!

Can’t seem to get this working, I’ll just disable the ability to let people leave for now (so they can only be removed by admin). Doesn’t matter too much as the site is only private groups.

@mercime thanks for that.

But when I change the subject of the Activation Email it does not change anything. The subject is the same as before.

Also there is no option to send a welcome email. Only a welcome private message, which isn’t what I was looking for because I wanted to provide them with their username and password in the email (and obviously they’d need that to login and see the private message).

Is there any other ways to get this done?

update: verified all sites are set to permalinks “day and name”

verified “register” page in bp pages setup is set to “register” but the view link takes me to primarysite.com, not primarysite.com/register

and discovered the following error in the phpadmin, possibly the culprit, not sure:

Problems with indexes of table wp_PRIVATE_users

The indexes user_login and user_login_key seem to be equal and one of them could possibly be removed.

Here are the 3 error logs when clicking the meta register link

thank you.

Right, so, when I pick the Activity menu item which appears to be public, as soon as I click on it, two options show up, Post in (My profile, or groups) and Post Update.

Er… now it’s working again. What the???
I posted without picking either choice and my post was made public. Before that, not only would it not go public but it was just plain lost. It didn’t show up anywhere.

Guess something burped and it’s working now.

I am using Tersus theme from ThemeForest (which is advertised as BuddyPress theme).

My permalinks are set to postname.

BuddyPress is installed , to create forum it’s asking to install bbpress.

So the bbpress (without the BuddyPress) forum works.

But when I go to the BuddyPress newly created pages (groups, forums,members) I get those problems. Can’t create groups, can’t create forum, can’t send private message to memebers. Error message :There was an error saving group details, please try again.
