    I disabled the email activation for new members, because I couldn’t get it to work. Now my site is running smoothly but I have a problem with people creating fake account to spam forums.

    I can’t seem to find how to re-activate the email activation (newbie). How may I solve this problem?

    Hey, I’ve been running a couple BuddyPress sites for a good number of years now, and well, the setups are pretty involved.

    I’m curious, if there might not now be a few plugin combinations that create reasonably functional BuddyPress communities, out-the-box.

    So, basically: everything works.

    It’s not that important “how” everything works, but the setup creates a site that won’t be plagued by splogs or spam, obviously registration works properly, and there are usable community features that aren’t broken.

    Ideal answers would basically be lists of plugins & possibly themes.

    Anyone have recommendations on spam catchers for BP. Particularly that weeds out spam before registration. Non captcha preferred.

    Thanks in advance

    That is an old bbPress issue. When you edit a topic, i some case, the topic comes up twice(or more, depending how many edit you made) on the site activity.

    This bug will be corrected in bbP 2.6 (actual version is 2.5.9). See ticket & patch here.
    What you can do immediatly is to modify following file:

    
    wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/activity.php

    Replace code between line 277/279

    
    $existing = bp_activity_get_specific( array( 'activity_ids' => $activity_id, 'show_hidden' => true, 'spam' => 'all', ) );
    if ( empty( $existing['total'] ) || ( 1 !== (int) $existing['total'] ) )
    return null;

    by

    $existing = new BP_Activity_Activity( $activity_id );
    if ( empty( $existing->component ) ) {
    return null;
    }

    I just came across this post from a while back discussing my free plugin for filtering BuddyPress content to remove profanity: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/profanity-filter-any-suggestions/

    If anyone is interested the pro version of this plugin has just been updated to include support filtering of BuddyPress content: https://wpgoplugins.com/plugins/content-censor/

    Note: I’m only posting here in response to the thread above. It’s not my intention to spam the forum with links to pro products.

    I am running the lest version of Buddypress and WordPress on a VPS server NOT running multisite. Tiny framework is the theme I am using. However the first thing I did to trouble shoot was try to replicate problem without any plugin and using 2012 theme (which tiny frame is based on) and 2016 theme. The issues remained the same with but those thems and th social me theme.

    I will try to check the MYSQL question as I am familiar with that having done MYSQL database programming. However I have narrowed done the problem to something related to the extended profile fields component. Through trial and error and some research I surfaced the correlation which one other person seems to have referred as well. If extended profile fields are turned OFF the registration is completed and the activation email sent. If it is on the registration process is not completed. I tested this extensively turning on and off and it followed that pattern. I currently have the component turned off and users are able to register. When I turned on again I was unable to complete a registration.

    It may be unrelated but no registration spam protection plugins will work now either I have tried several with recaptcha and without and in every case the registration process short circuits.

    Thanks for any help in advance. I would like to get the extended field working again.

    Hello,

    I have Buddypress installed for the WPLMS theme (WordPress learning management system)

    Right now, when I send a message or notification to multiple recipients, when someone replies, it is sent to the entire group.

    Is it possible to make the reply private between the Admin (me) and the replying user?

    Why would I want to do this?

    Let’s say I want to send the same message to every student taking a course on my site asking them for their feedback, then when someone replies to that message, everyone will see that reply. I don’t want that. It’s spammy and will annoy people.

    The alternative is to hand deliver each message to each user, but at times I want to compose the same message to everyone, and composing the same message a hundred times isn’t practical.

    Is there a workaround for this?

    Thanks.

    WordPress version 4.5.2
    Buddypress version 2.5.3

    ColorMag Theme

    When I installed bp and turned extended profiles, if I go to the toolbar in the upper right and choose Profile-Edit it goes to something like this:

    /members/[username]/profile/edit/group/1/

    And it’s a 404 page.

    Also, if I click on any of the users in the backend including me the Admin, it says they’re marked as spam but yet the active/spam toggle is set to active not spam.

    In addition, the register page doesn’t work and just loops back to home page.

    Am I supposed to do some kind of setup other than checking the button the button that I want extended profiles in order to make this work? The documentation on this site for this just says it’s pending.

    I’ve turned it off so I can at least use regular profile management but would love to access the extended profiles capabilities.

    hi @danbp
    Thanks for your reply,
    i have tried the with

    bp_activity_get_where_conditions

    but this filter will return the where conditions used like

    array(3) {
      ["filter_sql"]=>
      string(416) "a.user_id IN ( 451,378,213,431,429,414,415,456,452,473,460,458,283,471,383,468,387,454,441,6,384,475,427 ) AND a.component IN ( 'groups' ) AND a.type IN ( 'activity_update' ) AND a.item_id IN ( 1 )"
      ["spam_sql"]=>
      string(13) "a.is_spam = 0"
      ["excluded_types"]=>
      string(34) "a.type NOT IN ('activity_comment')"
    }

    it will not contain the ‘ORDER BY’ portion of the query, i hope we will get the total query with the

    bp_activity_total_activities_sql

    filter in ~L, 664, so when we get the entire query we can replace the ‘ORDER BY’ section using string replace, i have tried by using this but i can’t get the query inside the function, do you have any idea how to use this filter ?

    Hi Julia,

    it’s a bbPress bug, patched a while ago, but still in. Maybe a day it will be repaired definetly.

    For the moment, you can repair yourself. Open activity.php in wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/

    Replace following code block at line 277/279:

    $existing = bp_activity_get_specific( array( 'activity_ids' => $activity_id, 'show_hidden' => true, 'spam' => 'all', ) );
    if ( empty( $existing['total'] ) || ( 1 !== (int) $existing['total'] ) )
    return null;

    by

    $existing = new BP_Activity_Activity( $activity_id );
    if ( empty( $existing->component ) ) {
    return null;
    }

    Save and reload to to your site by FTP and you’re done.

    Whilst waiting for a response from your host, try checking your spam folder to be sure nothing is dropping in that.

    so our site is pretty much unusable right not and we found out that it is getting dozens of spam groups a minute created on domain.com/groups. Im trying to figure out how to stop this. They have created tens of thousands of spam groups and not sure how to stop it or who is doing it to delete them

    I have just installed BP and discovered that all users, admins included, are marked as spammers. As a result, extended profile settings are not accessible. Instead it says “Admin has been marked as a spammer. All BuddyPress data associated with the user has been removed” where “Admin” is a user name.
    Currently the site runs Academica theme. I tried several other themes, same result.
    I tried to create a new used after installing BP, same result.
    When accessing another user page, I can see that status is “Active”. I tried to change it to spammer and back to active, same result.

    What do I do now? 🙂

    When I activate some members they are not added to the members list.

    BP considers activated users when they login to the website. else it doesnt.

    activation emails dont go or goes to spam folder? check this plugin and use it as per your requirements

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-options/

    Also if your email domain is on lets say google apps and you are using the email domain to send mail from your site hosted on a different server you need to add email srv records
