I’m experiencing issues with the password field on the registration form. While it’s not displaying a password that exists (and every time I refresh it, it updates to a different one), it displays something random for any user who finds this page. I think this is why we keep getting so many spam requests…
Is there any way to hide that field input by default?
I found another topic here regarding a different theme conflict: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/password-key-input-invisible-by-default-help/
TIATopic: Spam Signups Despite CAPTCH
Hey guys,
I’m wondering if you can help.
I installed BB-Press & BuddyPress a few weeks ago and quickly found the need to add a CAPTCHA to stop the spam sign ups.
I installed it, and it slowed them down, but I’m still getting sign ups that are clearly fake.
Attached is a screenshot of the settings and below is a link to the website forum.
Are you able to see where they might be getting through?
Thanks,
MarcHi,
Someone changed all users to spam, altho I don’t see Spam as a choice Anywhere.How can I change them to active again? I’ve bulk and sgl selected and clicked to active, participant, etc. but nothing changes.
Would appreciate your assistance.

I have a website running BuddyPress with 50000 users and we are hit by a lot of spam user creations. We managed to mitigate it but it ends up bloating the uploads folders with thousands of avatar images that end up staying there when deleting user accounts. Is there a hook or function dedicated to handling avatars that is not working on my hand when deleting a user or is this normal?
I saw that this topic asked the same question a looooong time ago but no answers and can’t find anything in documentation about that.

Topic: custome query
i want to get only 2 comments , on load of activity page . wich i really get using my code
“add_filter(‘bp_use_legacy_activity_query’, function ($value, $method, $args) {
if ($method == “BP_Activity_Activity::get_activity_comments”) {
return true;
}
}, 10, 3);add_filter( ‘bp_activity_comments_user_join_filter’, function( $value, $activity_id, $left, $right, $spam = ‘ham_only’ ) {
// Modify the SQL query to fetch only two comments
global $wpdb, $bp;
$bp = buddypress();$xprofile_active = function_exists(‘bp_is_active’) && bp_is_active( ‘xprofile’ );
// Initialize fullname related variables
$fullname_select = $fullname_from = $fullname_where = ”;// Select the user’s fullname with the query if XProfile is active and user has filled the field.
if ( $xprofile_active ) {
if ( bp_has_profile() ) {
// Get the field value if user has filled it.
$field_id = 1; // Modify this according to your field ID.
$field_value = bp_get_profile_field_data( ‘field=’ . $field_id );
if ( !empty( $field_value ) ) {
$fullname_select = “, pd.value as user_fullname”;
$fullname_from = “, {$bp->profile->table_name_data} pd “;
$fullname_where = “AND pd.user_id = a.user_id AND pd.field_id = $field_id”;
}
}
}// Don’t retrieve activity comments marked as spam.
if ( ‘ham_only’ == $spam ) {
$spam_sql = ‘AND a.is_spam = 0’;
} elseif ( ‘spam_only’ == $spam ) {
$spam_sql = ‘AND a.is_spam = 1’;
} else {
$spam_sql = ”;
}// Modify the SQL query to fetch only two comments
$sql = $wpdb->prepare( “SELECT a.*, u.user_email, u.user_nicename, u.user_login, u.display_name{$fullname_select}
FROM {$bp->activity->table_name} a, {$wpdb->users} u{$fullname_from}
WHERE u.ID = a.user_id {$fullname_where}
AND a.type = ‘activity_comment’ {$spam_sql}
AND a.item_id = %d
AND a.mptt_left > %d
AND a.mptt_left < %d
ORDER BY a.date_recorded ASC
LIMIT 2″,
$activity_id, $left, $right );return $sql;
}, 10, 5 );”but it give me also count 2 , can i get original count.
means , any activity has 10 comment then it display only 2 but give count 10
Topic: How To Delete Register Page
Hello,
Unfortunately after the latest bp update Version 12.0.0 I am inundated with spam sign ups!
Previously, it was possible to delete the registration page entirely, which I had tdone because of excessive spam registrations.
However now BuddyPress pages are no longer accessible in the network admin panel & BuddyPress Settings. I even tried addding an obscure page name slug in the urls section of buddypress settings, but I’m still inundated with spam sign-ups.
I use a plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-registration/ to navigate around the weak registration page and I am still using it except that I have the main buddypress registration page causing sign up problems which I cannot fix.
Perhaps I’m overlooking something. If so, could you provide suggestions on how to secure the BuddyPress registration page or eliminate it completely which I would almost prefer to do as
I’ve never been able to customize it and secure it from massive unwanted registrationsThank you for your time and patience
Mark M.I have multiple non-Admin test accounts at my site that I use to test user experience. I’ve tried the passwords that should work to log in, to no avail. When I try to reset the password from multiple angles (using the password reset on the site, and from the initial signup email), I’m not receiving a password reset email. (not in spam folder either, and it’s been multiple hours since the first reset attempt)
In addition, when I try to log in from the site’s forum login button, it says “Method Not Allowed”.
I have Buddypress 12.0.0 and just installed the BP Classic plugin which didn’t solve either issue.
Thanks for any help!

The Codex mentions here that there is a page in Settings > Email but I don’t see it.
So I have 2 questions : by default, does sending a notice as an admin to all users triggers a mail to be sent?
And if so where do I configure/disable it? With 40000 users I’d like to be able to notify users but not send a load of email spam.
Hi,
I’m looking to speed up a user’s recording speed.
I’d like the user to register faster by removing the account activation email.
Other methods exist to combat spam.Can you please tell me how?
Hi, I just wanted to let people know that German users have a complete translation now on wp.org when they install or update BuddyPress.
(Until yesterday, while the basic frontend was covered, ~1000 translations were missing)
You may also review my work on this link and submit any fixes you might have:
Lookup buddypress on translate.wordpress.org, avigate to German and select my per-Project
translations there. I am not including links for now as my other topic was flagged as spam.I am still working on some fixups, if you find anything to comment on, please do,
and submit your improvements if you can (just signup on the page)!If you need the formal German, reply here, I am subscribing this topic.
