*some of these may not be up to date though so back up before you test anything.

== NB My installation is on stand alone PC not connected to the internet. ==
1. Keep BP Template Pack plugin activated.
2. Open up bp-default theme and copy the folders listed below from bp-default theme into bp-twentyeleven folder
– activity, blogs, forums, groups, members, registration

IF wordpress isn’t sending any emails (ie they’re not in spam or junk folders) it may need an extra plugin – see https://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/frequently-asked-questions/
Or try https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/ to help diagnose where the issue is and add some extra settings to fix it…

I just followed these steps, and the text and input boxes came perfectly. The form isn’t working, so I’ve got to figure out why. Suggestions?

I have looked for this since a long time. The problem comes from the plugin and widget mailpress. It’s terrible!
I always look at for widgets now, when I install something.

Deactivate BjuddyPress and other plugins. Check if your registration is working in WordPress first. If not, please find resolution at https://wordpress.org/support/

I’ve added extended fields per buddypress’s capabilities; however, they don’t show up in my registration process….any idea why not and what I need to do about it:

Here is a completed profile where someone actually went back into their EDIT PROFILE and finished adding all the data: http://www.localjobs.com/blog/members/jimtait/profile/

Yet, even then – not all the REQUIRED fields are showing up on EDIT mode.

And here is the URL to register…and you can see that just a small bit of those initial fields actually during a new registration process – and my REQUIRED fields don’t show up either: http://www.localjobs.com/blog/register

Any ideas what I’m doing wrong? I’m asking this here because I’m getting zero responses after 3 weeks in the HOW-TO section having asked the same questions and this can’t be that hard to answer….

Much thanks.

Have you tried resetting your permlinks? I’m just thinking something may have got stuck there and somehow that is impacting .. stab in dark but worth a shot.

I tried xprofile_get_field_data() but it didn’t work, maybe I’m just too dumb..

So I tried it using MySQL, here is my function wp_new_user_notification, I edit wp-includes/pluggable.php

function wp_new_user_notification($user_id, $plaintext_pass = ”) {
$user = new WP_User($user_id);

$user_login = stripslashes($user->user_login);
$user_email = stripslashes($user->user_email);
$buddypress_fields = $user_id;

// The blogname option is escaped with esc_html on the way into the database in sanitize_option
// we want to reverse this for the plain text arena of emails.
$blogname = wp_specialchars_decode(get_option(‘blogname’), ENT_QUOTES);

$message = sprintf(__(‘New user registration on your site %s:’), $blogname) . “rnrn”;
$message .= sprintf(__(‘Username: %s’), $user_login) . “rnrn”;
$message .= sprintf(__(‘E-mail: %s’), $user_email) . “rnrn”;

// Add Custom Fields from buddypress table to admin email – Start

$buddypress_result_ = mysql_query(“SELECT
wp_bp_xprofile_fields.name,
wp_bp_xprofile_data.value
FROM wp_bp_xprofile_fields, wp_bp_xprofile_data
WHERE
wp_bp_xprofile_data.user_id = $user_id
AND
wp_bp_xprofile_fields.id = wp_bp_xprofile_data.field_id
ORDER BY
wp_bp_xprofile_data.field_id”);

while($buddypress_row = mysql_fetch_array($buddypress_result_))
{
$fields = $buddypress_row;
$fields_value = $buddypress_row;
$message .= $fields . “: rn”;
$message .= $fields_value . “rnrn”;
}

// Add Custom Fields from buddypress table to admin email – End

@wp_mail(get_option(‘admin_email’), sprintf(__(‘[%s] New User Registration’), $blogname), $message);

if ( empty($plaintext_pass) )
return;

$message = sprintf(__(‘Username: %s’), $user_login) . “rn”;
$message .= sprintf(__(‘Password: %s’), $plaintext_pass) . “rn”;
$message .= wp_login_url() . “rn”;

wp_mail($user_email, sprintf(__(‘[%s] Your username and password’), $blogname), $message);

}

Hi, This sounds like a real head scratcher, but I found some things you could get started with, http://devthought.com/2008/01/12/textboxlist-meets-autocompletion/ and http://www.brandspankingnew.net/specials/ajax_autosuggest/ajax_autosuggest_autocomplete.html I found them at http://www.noupe.com/tools/100-essential-web-development-tools.html Maybe writing a plugin that applies them to a text field in the BuddyPress custom fields. Thanks for asking for my help

You don’t need to do that any more. Just change the slug of the page mapped to registration (wp-admin BuddyPress > Pages).

You’re running multisite. If you want your users to be able to register their own sites (think like how WordPress.com works), then pick both sites and users. If you just want to allow new user account, just pick users

You shouldn’t need to apply any patch. In your dashboard, go to Settings > General, and tick “Allow anyone to register”

Please create a new thread – this one is over a year old, and you’re best off asking a question in a new topic.

@t.sjogren
does this work?

Did you try deactivating BP Registration Options plugin and see if the BP adminbar aka buddybar shows up?

Did you try deactivating BP Registration Options plugin and see if the BP adminbar aka buddybar shows up?

Have you gone thrue the setup of Buddypress (its in on the panel somewhere. ) and switched theme to a buddypress compatible one?

why not use recaptha for registration?

I’ve decided to manually register users as they sign up. It is the kludgiest of solutions, but I’d rather spend my time registering good folks that hours seeking out and deleting bad.

This *is* BuddyPress. Have a play and learn at http://testbp.org/
