Hi, everybody!

Could you help me to set set display_name = xprofile ‘first_name’ + ‘last_name’ at the user registration?
I’ve tryed this code:

function change_user_defaults($user_id) {
	$user = get_userdata($user_id);
        $mv_first_name = xprofile_get_field_data(  26,  $user_id ); 
        $mv_last_name = xprofile_get_field_data(  11,  $user_id );  
        $name = $mv_first_name . ' ' . $mv_last_name; 
        $mv_login = $user_id . stristr($user->user_email, '@', true); 
        if ($name !== ' '){
            $args = array(
                    'ID' => $user_id,
                    'display_name' => $name
            );
            wp_update_user( $args );
        }
}

add_action( 'xprofile_updated_profile', 'change_user_defaults' ); /* but this works only after manual BuddyPress profile update */

/* I also tried these hooks too */
add_action( 'bp_core_signup_user',      'change_user_defaults' ); 
add_action( 'bp_core_activated_user',   'change_user_defaults' );
/* but it didn't work at the user registration  */

I’d like to create a topic with his name at user registration.

What’s wrong with this code：

function bp_user_fst_topic (){

    // get user name	
    $user_data = get_user_by( 'id', bp_loggedin_user_id() )->data;
    $user_nicename = = $user_data->user_nicename;

    // create slug
    $new_slug = 'first-topic-' . $user_nicename;

    // create topic
    $post_value = array(
        'post_name' => $new_slug,
        'post_type' => 'topic',
        'post_author' => $userid,
        'post_title' => 'first topic',
        'post_content' => 'This topic was created when you registered.',
        'post_category' => array(1,5), 
        'tags_input' => array('tag1','tag2'), 
        'post_status' => 'publish' 
    );
    wp_insert_post($post_value);

}
add_filter( 'bp_core_activated_user', 'bp_user_fst_topic',1 );

Could you tell me how to do this..?

Hello,

I am using the KLEO Theme (the current version supports only bp-lagacy-template) together with the current Version of BuddyPress 4.1.0, and having some serious trouble.

1. Whenever I try to change the visibility settings of the Name Field on the registration page, it jumps back to the default „everyone“ value (please note the attached GIF). As far as I understand BuddyPress requires this field to always be present and for the value to always be everyone. But why is the line of text and visibility option setting shown beneath the Name Field then? And if the settings are not stored as expected, the user ends up confused.

2. Similar issue on the user’s profile page. Whenever I try to change the visibility settings of an xProfile (Detail), it looks as if a chosen setting is stored while saving, but the text still says „This field can be seen by: everyone), which confuses the user even further (please note the attached GIF).

It looks like a BuddyPress related bug to me, because for testing purposes I have deactivated any other plugin that might interfere. My site is still under construction, so unfortunately I cannot proof my claim „live“. Can you please confirm, if these issues exist on other websites as well?

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Regards,
Martin

A lot of member registrations go unactivated on my site because the use mis-types their email address in the registration form.

It’s a big problem because they think they have registered but they never receive an activation email and I have no way of contacting them to let them know.

To avoid this I would like to add a required field to the registration form where they have to re-type their email address to confirm it is correct.

Is there a way to add this please?

Is there any way that you can upload the profile image without having to crop it ? for example a automatically resized or something like that? I lose many users who try to register from the mobile phone just in this step.

Having updated today to WordPress 5.0.3 (and running BuddyPress 4.1.0) textarea fields (e.g. in the registration form) no longer show the TinyMCE editor. This is because with Gutenberg enabled wp_editor() doesn’t work, which is what the textarea field type uses:

/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-xprofile/classes/class-bp-xprofile-field-type-textarea.php:90-118

/**
* Filters the arguments passed to <code>wp_editor()</code> in richtext xprofile fields.

*     @type bool $teeny         Whether to use the teeny version of TinyMCE. Default true.	 *     @type bool $media_buttons Whether to show media buttons. Default false.
*     @type bool $quicktags     Whether to show the quicktags buttons. Default true.

$editor_args = apply_filters( 'bp_xprofile_field_type_textarea_editor_args', array(
	'teeny'         => true,
	'media_buttons' => false,
	'quicktags'     => true,
	'textarea_rows' => 10,
), 'edit' );

wp_editor(
	bp_get_the_profile_field_edit_value(),
	bp_get_the_profile_field_input_name(),
	$editor_args
);

The console shows the error “Uncaught ReferenceError: tinymce is not defined” which is apparently located in the tinyMCEPreInit script definition at the foot of the page.

Any ideas?

Thanks
