Topic: Add subject title in URL
Im building a Apartment rental site.
And on the single apartment page I have a “Send a private message” button where people can send a private message to the person who owns the apartment and ask a questions.So therefor I need to automaticly add the Apartment name in the Subject of the message.
Is it possible to make the subject within the URL something link “https://domain.com/members/user1/messages/compose/?r=user2?subject=xxxxxxxx” So the Subject is automaticly filled when people clicks the “Send a private message”
Hello,
I have an active site using ultimate membership pro. Its good however does not have any social tools built in. I want to allow users to add their own content to go on their profile and I guess on an general activity feed.
I have a few questions as I am considering how to set it up.
My questions are:
Firstly, is Buddypress compatible with Ultimate Membership pro?
Can I use the user pages of Ultimate membership pro and add in the short code to thee user page to show the activity or will I have to swap over to the Buddypress profiles?
Can I still get people to register/login through Ultimate membership pro but use the profile pages from Buddy press?Many thanks,
Soraya
Topic: Pre-Install Questions
Hi,
I have a client who has a yearly get together. They want exisiting users (about 750) to be able to talk with one another about sharing a hotel room or arranging rides to and from the airport. It seems like BuddyPress would allow them to do this. Is that correct?In online research it looks like the existing 750 would not automatically be given a BuddyPress account? How can I give them automatic BuddyPress accounts and access based on their existing user accounts?
I already have a “Members” page so I think there will be a conflict with a BuddyPress install since it creates a Members page. Can I have BuddyPress create a different Members page (like BPMembers or something)? How would I do this?
Thank you,
MarilynI’m trying to find out how to get in contact with a moderator in the forums, as there is part of an old thread I really need edited here. I was the author of the post, but since the post is many years old there’s really not an option for that.
The thread in q: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/2-questions-about-the-recent-blog-posts-widget/.
The final part in the first post contains my full name, and I would really appreciate it if a modertor could remove the regards and my name part of that post.
Hi,
We are working with some large national nonprofit organization to put their groups on our site.
Each organization has a number of groups under them. These organizations would like to upload the groups affiliated with them onto our site, so our site becomes a very useful online directory to show all their groups.
Then they expect these groups to join our site and claim their respective group listing.
Does Buddypress support this type of function? We thought about using Directory plugins like WP GeoDirectory for this function. Here is our dilema:
1) create a list and expect future members to claim it is a readily available out of box function. However, directories offer very limited group functions. Buddypress is perfect for our long term group function needs.2) However, if a group can only be created by a member who has already joined the site, then we might not be able to start with a very short list of groups, which makes our site much less useful initially. For example, if BuddyPress only allows local groups who have joined our site to create groups, then when we launch, our list of groups might be so short that visitors might think our site is not that useful because 95% of the groups who have not yet sign up as a member are not listed.
Any suggestions how we could balance our two needs?
Thanks a lot.

Topic: general doubts and questions
Hi, I’m new to the Buddypress community. I want to install this tool on my website to have a forum, but I have my doubts since I have used many, please answer the following questions;
1) Can I customize Buddypress? that is, do resources exist in the community to be able to personalize or have a theme or different themes? Where is that?
2) Anonymous users can post?
3) When someone makes an apublication, can you add it in the categories of my web page?
4) Can members upload files or images?
beforehand thank you all for your response.
WordPress Version: 4.9.7
BuddyPress Version: 3.1.0Please let me know whether BuddyPress can be customized in such a way, that it’s able to deliver the following:
What I am looking for is a simple tool to allow for incoming questions into a central point, then the question gets allocated to respective Mentors.How it would work is as follows:
Mentee registers on the app, using his/her mobile number,
When the Mentee sends in a mentoring related question, they can select a topic/category (Career, Studies, Finance, Personal, Religion, Other)
When Mentors register, they select a specific category they would like to offer mentoring in, so that when a mentoring question comes in, it get allocated to a specific Mentor.A similar app is “UNIBLY” – however it is too advanced and has functionalities that I do not need, such as matching, chats, tasks & posting.
I don’t want the mentees and mentors to have conversations that might lead to people agreeing to meet, e.g. young girl ends up developing personal relationship with older Mentor.I hope I have explained what I need.
Thank you in advance for your feedback.
Hi,
I am facing issue with @mentions on my website. I want the @mentions to be active sitewide and currently I see they are only active on Activity page. I want it to be active on my group forums and questions pages. I am using CM answers for questions. Is it possible or Is there any other way I can achieve it.
Thanks in advance!

Latest versions of WP, BP, and bbPGoal
I’m trying to devise a simple, socially-oriented discussion space that has some invitation-only groups, and specific private fora for specific topics, but that is easy to enter and manage.Structure
My initial thought was to have two groups:
Fans – open group
Various fora – all openContributors – invitation-only group
Specific fora and sub-fora – all private. For example:
Project forum 1 – open only to some members of the Contributors group
Project sub-forum A – open only to some members of the Forum 1 groupI’m finding that the groups and fora are hard to administer. I’d like to be able to simply check some boxes on the back end to define which site members belong to which groups and fora. Instead, they have to join, then I have to invite them (through the front end) to each group and to each forum and sub-forum. It’s slow and tedious.
Infrastructure
I had thought that using both BuddyPress and bbPress would give me what I want, and it does function, but it’s unattractive and awkward to manage. Some specific issues:- Group ‘forum’ – each group has its own discussion space aside from the fora. I’d like to force people to use the fora instead.
- Signup – as noted, it’s very awkward to manage memberships in groups and fora; too much so for anyone to realistically sign up for the site, join a group, join a forum, join a sub-forum. I know who should be where; I’d like to manage all or most of this on the back end.
- Forum font size – is very small. While this seems a small detail, I’ve tried altering every font setting in my theme, and none seem to affect this.
Questions:
- Am I using the right tools? Would just bbPress or just BuddyPress be better?
- Are there specific plugins I should be using? I’ve seen some that look useful, but many are out of date. Some aren’t described with much specificity. I’m not sure which would do what I want.
Advice much appreciated.
(Also, any free themes that would work well, so that fora aren’t pushed way down the page.)
First, thank you to everyone who has helped with my questions in the past. I know the support is free and I am grateful for those who assist.
I started my site over a month ago. However it is on hold because new subscribers are not receiving their confirmation emails. Big problem – new members are ready to join and I’m afraid my site is losing momentum. I used the plugin “Check Email” and it sends emails with no issue. I deleted BP and uploaded it again today, but still the patch (see below) is not in it.
I tried to add the patch as stated by @r-a-y. But WP could not save it. (https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/7869/7869.01.patch) I don’t know anything about FTP so that’s not going to work.
Any idea when BP will be updated with this patch so I can simply load a fresh version of it on WP?
If it can’t be resolved, can anyone recommend another platform?
Thanks for helping.
