    I’m trying to solve an issue with replies to activity comments that aren’t appearing on the site (even though they’re in the database and not marked as spam). I tried posting a new reply to an activity comment as a test, and when the reply was posted, it came with 2 errors, SQL queries which failed because the table ‘wp_bp_optouts’ doesn’t exist.

    I’ve no idea if this is related to my original problem, but I want to see what the situation is with this missing table anyway. I can’t see it in the database. It’s possible there was an issue because we froze our version of BP a good few major releases back, then upgraded to the latest recently. However, I made sure to upgrade sequentially through the intermediate releases in order to pick up any e.g. database changes, and we’ve not noticed any issues until now (many months after our big upgrade). We’re currently on BP 9.0.0, WP 5.8.

    Hi, I am wondering if where could I find the total number of notifications in database? I search it up in the source code and I found

    $notification_item->total_count

    However, I can’t find a column or any value in the database.
    I need to delete all notification counts because some intruders successfully registered my Buddypress and he/she send all spam messages to all my users. I already deleted all the messages, but counted notifications are remained. Kindly, help me. Thanks.

    Hi

    Currently inherited a website which has a terrible spam issue with BP.

    Simply put no measures were taken so it ran rampant. I have sorted this, but am now left with a very bloated DB.

    Having used

    SELECT * FROM wp_signups WHERE active = 0;

    I get the list of all inactive users.

    From here could some suggest the best way to remove all the data attributed to these inactive spam users?

    It boggles me that there isn’t something online.

    The reason i ask is i note the usermeta table is bloated along with the wp_signups, so i assume there is some relationship data in there, which ideally needs to go along with the inactive spam signups.

    Any guidance appreciated.

    And yes all is backed-up.

    I found out that the registration page for BuddyPress, when set in the dashboard overtook the page I had customized. To avoid that, I gave it is own page, so that my “normal” login was the customized one.
    However, I notice that the Buddypress registration is letting a lot of spam registrations in, since it is not using captcha. Is there a way to disable it completely so I can just keep my own page the way I set it up?

    Hello,

    The problem is, we are recibing user registration petition with only email without other fields. How is possible if i have a correctly validation fields system? This users are spam in all this special situations. I’m using Stop Spammers antispam plugin and it register this spamer but not block becasue it detects is ok.

    I have a register page customized with another url and blocking acces with usual registration url or usual acces. In this page i’m showing only all required fields from my xprofile fields list.

    I’m using Buddypress 7.3.0 and WordPress 5.7.2.

    Our system works like this:
    If i don’t fill all fields i can’t send this information and it show message error if i don’t fill some fields so form validation is working ok. When some user send this registration form correctly the system send a email with all information to system email and user is stand by to be activated using “user > manage signups” tool. User can be activated only by an administrator user.

    This screenshot shows when is a normal user registration: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NXahXVctAt76atlhrJ8-Hl5-KokKZqIF/view?usp=sharing

    This screenshot shows when is an spamer with only email (it doesn’t show xprofiles fields, when other usual registration petitions show all fields empty or not empty): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YC2fF_g3pnrPyD7kFQaJUE9Gt_ZBzHlK/view?usp=sharing

    I don’t know why can do this this users I need some help.

    Thank you.

    I’ve been using WPLMS theme which includes Buddypress. Right after I install the theme, users won’t get the activation email when they create an account. Although in the user list page, the “email sent” field is “1”.

    Then I install Buddypress on a plain 5.7.2 site with the 2021 theme. This time the users can get the activation email from wordpress@mysite.com(although it’s in the spam folder).

    Now I go back to the previous site and deactivate all of the other plugins and change the theme to 2021, still, users won’t get the activation email. This kind of verifies what the WPLMS’s support says, this is probably not their problem.

    Both sites are on the same Linode VPS server so they have the same host setting.

    Now I am stuck here. Can you show me a way to debug this?

    I’m having issues deleting Signup Fields?

    You can see the Nickname and First Name fields don’t have a remove option. I also tried clicking edit and it would not work?

    Any advice? I tried posting a new topic, but it keeps getting flagged as spam :'(

    Hello. I want to migrate from ultimate member on my site. I have switched off ultimate member and only have buddypress on. Regardless none of the users show up on the members page. In addition, users are showing as spammers.

    I want all of the user profile date to migrate if possible. My own user profile as an admin does not even show up.

    I really want this all to work, but I am also a novice at this. So I could use some help. THanks!

    Hi..
    I see a Spam link in Users list (Edit | Delete | View | Spam). There is a vague explanation of it’s existence on this site – but no explanation as to what it does (that I could fin – appolgies if I missed it). Can anyone explain what the effects of clicking ‘Spam’ are?

    Thanks

    @foilerone
    to check logs email are sent or not, you can use the email log plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/email-log/
    Email may also be stuck in spam folders, due to default WP Sender headers.

    I am getting registration spam by the bucketloads and I’m not sure how to combat this effectively.

    What I’ve done/considered so far:

    • Activating Recaptcha v3 (done)
    • Hope that email activation weeds out some of the spammers
    • Googling has advised hiding /wp-login.php?action=register since many spambots target this, but I’ve not been able to do this successfully, BuddyPress seems to redirect this to its register page.

    I’d be super glad for any advice on:

    • Hiding /wp-login.php?action=register
    • Any other spam-killing things that I should be doing

    Thanks!

    Is there a way to stop each reply indenting… it makes the messaging very quickly unreadable on any screen.

    It’s not Theme related, as I’ve switched it to different themes and it’s still doing it.

    Also, the same with spam being repeated.

    New to BP, so apologies if it’s something simple I’ve overlooked.

    I think you can do that with a WP filter

    add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', 'custom_wp_mail_from' );
    function custom_wp_mail_from( $original_email_address ) {
        //Make sure the email is from the same domain 
        //as your website to avoid being marked as spam.
        return 'webmaster@mydomainname.com';
    }

    wp_mail_from

    Hi,

    In order to keep my messages out of spam I signed up for sending my messages though send out blue, and using smtp. The email messages from Buddy press are not being sent out, all of the other messages are being sent though. Can anyone let me know what I need to do to get the messages from buddy press to be sent out through the smtp setup?

    I was wondering if anyone could help me. How do you delete a user’s Topic or posts in BuddyPress. I have BuddyPress site, but I can see where you can delete a post or Top that might be inappropriate. If I enable-spam for the user you can see the post. I would like to delete the data first or have the user have the ability to delete their own post, but I don’t see that capability either.

    Hi!
    I believe that my problem is in the sql query (although they work separately in my test in phpmyadmin) Im trying to filter a meta activity.

    `function Custom_Global_Search_Posts_sql( $sql, $args ) {
    global $wpdb;$bp;
    $sql = ” SELECT DISTINCT a.id FROM wp_bp_activity a INNER JOIN wp_bp_activity_meta ON (a.id = wp_bp_activity_meta.activity_id) WHERE a.is_spam = 0 AND (wp_bp_activity_meta.meta_key = ‘descr’ ) AND a.type = ‘activity_problem’ AND wp_bp_activity_meta.meta_value LIKE %s “;

    $query_placeholder[] = ‘%’.$wpdb->esc_like( $search_term ).’%’;
    $sql = $wpdb->prepare( $sql, $query_placeholder );
    return $sql;
    }`

    Thanks!!

    I have a good recapthca installed on the website yet still spam bots get right in and create spam profiles. Also, those spam profiles are not even showing as users! So I can’t even delete them.

    Do you know what’s going on and how to stop this?
