>im using geodirectory events plugin
You cannot ‘marge’ it with another plugin.
Your questions are specific to the geodirectory events plugin.
Please direct your questions to the support team for that plugin.
Those errors are not coming from the BuddyPress plugin.
They are coming from the buddypress-notifications-manager plugin.
For example:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/global74/public_html/cursos/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-notifications-manager/loader.php:77) in /home/global74/public_html/cursos/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 920
You should deactivate that plugin and contact the creators of that plugin with your questions.
Hey forum.
I have some questions. I have a community site with about 600 users. As I have let another guy run the site over time its all messed up with the design, plugins, etc etc. And now it seems like to big of a job to revert everything step by step. I got lost.
So I am thinking about deleting everything and build an new interface, new buddypress install, theme etc. BUT, how do I make sure that users, their profile info, forum posts etc not get deleted. I am not fluent in how databases work, what is stored where etc?
Could any of you Buddypress troopers give me some advice to the steps needed to be taken and waht to be mindful of? Link to any resources etc.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
Terjemk
You’d need to ask in the bbPress forums for a definitive answer as they are the ones best place to answer questions relating to forums – https://bbpress.org/forums/.
However to the best of my knowledge bbPress forums ( as opposed to forums created in BuddyPress groups ) can only be created by site admin, users can’t create them and there is no front end interface to allow users to create forums on their own.
So you could place the link in the BuddyPress menu, but for most users it would come back as not allowed.
Please do not use these forums for support questions about 3rd party plugins.
If you check out my website you should see I’ve written a lot about the basics of BuddyPress, you should check it out, it should answer a lot of questions.
When you enable the BuddyPress Groups component you will be able to set up a Groups page, when this is viewed it will automatically show a Create Group link.
If you install bbPress you can enable group forums, that way your users get the option of addinga forum to their group.
Hello everyone !
First of all, thank you for this beautiful extension! We have been using Buddypress on our platform for some time now and we would have some questions (WP v5.1.1 & BP v4.2.0 with “Heritage”).
- Through an Snippet, how can we view a particular Member only? We would need to recover his Avatar + his Nickname.
- What PHP can we use to display a dynamic link to a Player’s Profile? Let me explain: We use Event Listings on our Site and we would need to display the Member’s Nickname + a link to his Profile automatically.
Thank you in advance for your answers !

Dear Venutius,
thanks for anwsering all my questions. Thought it would be more complicated. Just for my understanding, where you should user find the link to edit there profile by default. I created a normal user account and can’t find any option to edit my profil avatar and cover?
Thanks for the code, thats very helpful but what I wanted to say is to implement a wall other users can post to. Sorry I was a bit unclear in this point.
Thank you for helping me so quickly, I really appreciate that! 🙂
EDIT: I just wanted to mention that my normal users don’t see the wordpress bar, I don’t know if it was from the beginning that way or a plugin did this. But for now I don’t want my users to see it. So if there is no regular button I want to include one on the profile page
Hi there, some answers:
1. You can change the layout of profiles by overloading the profile files and css, see: https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/theme-compatibility-2/ it’s possibly a bit advanced for you right now but all the files in the plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/your-bp-theme/buddypress can be copied, modified and loaded from your child theme directory. Similarly you can overload the css to make styling and layout changes.
1b. The default is for horizontal navigation unless you’ve changed it in Customizer>>BuddyPress.
2. The BuddyPress extended profile is editable from the front end, and avatar too. It’s only the wordpress profile that’s enditable in admin and most BP sites don’t use that as t’s really set up for authors.
3. I recently posted the code to combine all the profile activity feeds into 1, https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-combine-activity-tabs-to-one/
4. https://wordpress.org/plugins/cb-change-mail-sender/
5+6 are bbPress questions, for the best answer you should post on their forum https://bbpress.org/forums/
7. Assuming you have set up the groups directory page and enabled group creation by users in Settings>>BuddyPress>>Options, users will have the option to create groups on the Groups directory page and also from the Groups menu of the WordPress toolbar ( top right hand side of the screen, hover over your avatar image, drop down will appear one option will be groups.
Hi there, you seem to be asking me questions about code I’ve not written, I’m not the author of invite anyone. You are the secod person asking to be able to identify invites users from Invite Anyone. I suggest you raise a feature request on that plugin for this. Then the external invites could also be taken into account.
Thanks for your quick reply. The mentioned thread was just to show that someone has already tried to find a solution.
I have no coding skills at all, but I guess someone – either BuddyPress or YOAST team would have to make changes to their code in order to solve the issue. Can you please go ahead and raise the issue on Trac? If someone asks specific questions there, I most probably could not give the right answers.
Regards,
Martin
Do not use multisite unless you absolutely need it.
The face that you need to ask, strongly suggests that you should be using a single install.
For the rest of your questions, install the plugins you think you need and test, test, test.
If you still have questions, return to this topic and ask them.
Thank you for the response. I reviewed both links and not sure if it answers my questions.
While I understand that your plugin will allow the member’s posts to show, it doesn’t answer my core question of what if we as administrators are the “author” of the post in WordPress and how we then associate a post with that member so it can then show?

These forums are for questions about BuddyPress.
For questions about other plugins, such as wooCommerce and WC Vendors, please use their support forums. This thread is off-topic and closed.
Please do not double post. Your duplicate post has been deleted.
Please use the support forums for rtMedia for questions and issues re their plugin.
Please ask questions about ACF on their support forum.
They may have functions that will return the data that you need.
If not, they can tell you how to write a custom query for their data.
Many questions about issue with updating group Avatar. I discover something and hope this will stop you from starching your head.
I found that when Jetpack Lazy image is activate, group avatar/photo cannot be shown and cannot crop image at all. Turned off Jetpack Lazy image option, crop image works alright, but upload always error.
I finally de-activate JetPack to be able to update my group Avatar.
This is a subject that’s been talked about off and on in Buddypress history. We all know that it’s handy to have a user’s email address for many reasons, but in general, people prefer to be asked less questions when signing up at a new website.
I hired someone for help with this a couple years ago, and the code they gave me still works (only with the legacy template pack though!) Here’s the code:
/**
* Generate Random, unused email from the username
*
* @param string $username
*
* @return string random email
*/
function hello_generate_random_email( $username ) {
$domain = '@metalheadswebsite.com';
$username = sanitize_user( $username );
$email = $username . $domain;
while( email_exists( $email ) ) {
//try another random email by appending some digit
$email = $username . random_int( 1, 99999 ) . $domain;// there is vary low chance of having 100K users with same name anyway
}
return $email;
}
function hello_updatre_email() {
// If the username is not given, let us not worry much
if ( empty( $_POST['signup_username'] ) ) {
return ;
}
//Also, if an email is already given by the user, do not generate one
if ( ! empty( $_POST['signup_email'] ) ) {
return ;
}
//now generate a random email and save it
$email = hello_generate_random_email( $_POST['signup_username'] );
$_POST['signup_email'] = $email;
}
add_action( 'bp_signup_pre_validate', 'hello_updatre_email' );
This code works perfectly with the legacy template pack. The user signs up, and the function takes the given username & appends @metalheadswebsite.com to it, and submits it with the form. I’ve been using this code since 2017.
My problem is that now I want to switch to the Nouveau template pack, but this code does not work with it; it fails; users are prompted for the email address after hitting “Submit.”
I don’t understand how the nouveau registration works; the markup in that file is harder for me to understand than the one in legacy. Is it something simple that I need to do? Does anything stand out based on the code I provided?
PS) As I mentioned, I know this has been talked about in the past. I’ve read the suggestions people have given, but those suggestions are dusty now; the plugin called “Optional Email” does not work with Buddypress (Nouveau), at least not as of today.
The person who created the custom code for me is no longer doing this type of work. 🙁
This is the support site for BuddyPress which does not offer forums.
Please ask questions about forums on the support site for bbPress.
You need to ask Events Manager support questions about appropriate hooks.
Once you have that info, you can add your own notifications.

Hi. I hope someone can please help me. I have set up a group of two questions which I am requiring users to enter when registering for my site. I would like to be able to see the values entered by each user on the backend admin Users panel in the form of columns. However, I am unsure of how to accomplish this. I appreciate any assistance which anyone can provide me in regards to this matter.
How can I get questions dynamically from visitors online on my website by using a WP plugin? I want to gather it at the end to share at the FAQ page.
BP Profile Search will search as many profile fields as you want for each search input.
Just follow the directions for that plugin.
If you have additional questions, please ask them on the support forum for BP Profile Search.
There are a number of questions on setting up and finalizing the functionality using the BP plug-in. Ready to pay your time for help.
