Topic: “Invalid Post Type” when posting in group’s newsfeed

in group forum Installing BuddyPress

guillaummelane

Hi ! Here’s my problem : when I post something on the wall from a group, the post fails to be published and I just get this message : “Invalid post type”. My website was created 10 days ago and there’s nobody on it (that’s why I was trying to create content) so I don’t know about how this goes for the very few users I have. Kind of a pain, since the posts just completely disappear to let this message appear. I checked my settings and I could not find any parameter controlling some “Post Types”.

Hi use WP version 5.0.3, installed straight from Softaculous on Siteground, so probably as a directory. Unless the updates are automatic in WordPress, I don’t think I upgraded WP from 5.0.2 since I started creating my site later than the release of the latest version of WP. I had no issues with WP before downloading BuddyPress and I only had one problem after I had : weird display of messages with some code visible in some places of the page. I didn’t get to test much though since the site is very recent. I’m running BuddyPress Version 4.1.0. I didn’t upgrade it since I created the site. I have many plugins activated. Here’s the full list : Antispam Bee; bbp style pack; bbpress Version 2.5.14; BP Better Messages; BuddyDrive; BuddyPress Create Group Types; BuddyPress Follow; BuddyPress Global Search; BuddyPress Member Type Generator; BuddyPress Security Check; Contact Form 7; Events Manager; Flamingo; Footer Putter; GEO my WP; Loginizer; Nested Pages; Orbit Fox Companion; Post Types Order (supposed to deal with order?); SG Optimizer; Sitewide Newsletters; Super Progressive Web Apps; Query Monitor (recently downloaded, after noticing the problem); The GDPR Framework; TranslatePress – Multilingual; Wordfence Security; WP Statistics; Wpworx FAQ; YellowPencil Pro; Yoast SEO; Youzer. I have a few other installed but deactivated plugins. I am using the theme Orfeo by ThemeIsle, a child theme from Hestia if I remember correctly. I didn’t modify the core files and I don’t think I have custom functions.
I don’t know what system my server is running.

Thanks in advance ????

Hi pixieblitz

I sympathise with you. That happened to my first post. Having spent a long time gathering information and composing it I gave up. I have also turned off spam checking on my own site because if it doesn’t work here I’m sure it won’t work there. I would hate to think that my members’ posts were disappearing.

Hopefully, we might get a response.

In reply to: Activation email not sent

ashley72
Participant

I have the same problem. The lack of community support makes me feel this plugin may not be worth the effort.

When you check the manage signups the new registered user is awaiting to be activated. It shows that an email has been sent. After you try and resend the activation email. It does trigger and add to the count – showing two emails sent. So it would seem most of the functionality is working. If I deactivate the plugin, my wordpress email notifications is working. I’ve checked the spam folder, and even tried non-gmail accounts and still getting no activation emails at all. However, I have received a buddypress notification when another member does a mention. So it appears some kind of small bug is the problem.

Does any of the core developers for BuddyPress check theses support forums?

Hello…
I just made a post My Previous Post and noticed a label “this topic marked as spam” after I tried to edit a typo. I’m not sure why or how to avoid that in the future, or how to get any input on what I had originally been asking?

It IS a bit of a duplicate post, since I originally put a similar question in a different forum, but I wasn’t really sure where it belonged and couldn’t figure out how to delete the first one.

Please help?
Thanks!

Topic: Activation emails going straight to spam.

in group forum Installing BuddyPress

brewsi

Hi all,

I have been reading about this topic but no definite answer is present.

My activation emails are going directly into spam folders.

When I send these emails separately they are fine so it’s something to do with how they are sent from the registration form.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance

Sorry for the delay in replying, @binaryfabric. I just happened to notice your message in my spam folder.

I didn’t make any more progress with that problem, unfortunately. I’ve also changed jobs and don’t manage that project anymore. Good luck to you!

Screw it. I tried to post the code in various ways, but I don’t have time to spend trying to post A SIMPLE COMMENT FFS.

Go to this link and use the code specified in the file.

I hope it’s still available years later when someone stumbles across this comment thread.

BuddyPress forums need some sort of fix for this crap. What an incredible waste of time and energy, just to post a helpful comment that contained code. I’m not a freaking spammer. I mean, if your forum software is needing to be THAT sensitive to fight spam, make us do captchas or some crap to verify we’re ‘human.’

Ya know, I get why spam filters exist, but when they make a site UNUSABLE FOR ACTUAL USERS then your technology is worthless.

Anyhow…lol, end of rant. Here is the link:

I hope this solution helps others as much as it’s helped me. <3

@venutius oh thanks for the suggestions, appreciate the plugin links…but they don’t accomplish what i need to do

i need specific avatars for classes of users, ones that correspond to the styling and hierarchy of my site

so identicons being ‘fun’…? sadly i don’t need fun, lol….i need a streamlined business look and fun with random identicons won’t work

and creating local gravatar avatars for users that ‘don’t have one’ is also random — not corresponding with my site; if i wanted to have default gravatar avatars populate i’d just choose the options that come with WordPress by default — that already is an option

and gravatar is incredibly cumbersome with its pinging to the servers where the gravatars are stored….it may seem minor to many, but it does burden a site

plus, gravatars have weak coding that allow the email address of the user to be ‘scraped’ by bots

so to protect my users from future spam and to keep my site as speedy as possible AND to have my site avatars correspond to the styling of my site i need gravatars to never ever ever be used, and nothing random either

Ah great! Glad that one is solved. It’s only half of the solution though. These bots will still plague your site with registration requests. To get rid of those try https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-google-recaptcha/ thi sworked like a treat on my sites, totally eliminating spam bot registrations (for now…).

I’m not sure anything’s been done with it due to potential issues with spamming users. To work around this my suggestion would be to install one of the BuddyPress Mass Messaging plugins and email all with a link to the activity post. It’s a bit clumsy I know.

Topic: How to Hide Pending Users – Members Search Results

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

Hello!

I am currently using BuddyPress for a community site which is private. I have all of the site completely locked down, and the last thing I see possible for spam is that a user could create an account with a bad name, which can be seen if a user uses the search function on the members page.

At the moment the Pending users are NOT showing up in the Members Loop, but do show up in the search. I am using a plugin to do the approval process, and another to remove the buddypress activation email.

Is there any way to modify the members search page to not return users still pending?

Please help!

Never Active users ARE showing in the members page, but not pending ones. However, pending users are showing up in Members search results.

Any help on where to start for editing the members search loop and checking the pending status would be great.

I just tried disabling BuddyPress PM’s but any member can still send public messages to any other member which still results in an email notification sent out, so a spammer could still use that.

@prashantvatsh Thanks, I didn’t realize that every user could see the /members page and then if they click to a members profile they see the public and private messaging buttons too.

It seems that every new registration on the site automatically becomes a Buddypress member. So then they can see the membership list and message any other user without being a member of any group.

This isn’t good, easy for manual spammers to register and send PM spam to members.
