    Topic: Members Page

    in group forum Installing BuddyPress

    I’m running WP 5.2.2 and the latest version of BuddyPress. Just did a fresh install and checked the settings in the backend.

    I have 2 admins and an author, all 3 of us are listed as spam from the get go when i look at our user profiles in the backend…. so theres that…

    When im on the /members page, it shows ‘Sorry, no members were found’ when looking at ‘Last Active’ sort.

    Same message when viewing ‘Newest Registered’ Sort

    but when i sort by alphabetical, it shows all 3 of us and only shows me as active and the other 2 as never active…. but when i log out and log back in as another user, it shows her as her as active and my acount as never active….

    Am I supposed to register these user accounts? And if so, how do I do it? we’re all marked as spam, and i don’t even see a way to unspam our profiles…

    I’m very new to BuddyPress and I have a feeling I’m going to be asking a lot of questions on this forum…….

    It still works on mine. We do get spammers occasionally that send mass friend requests then spam, but I can usually block their user before too much damage is done. It’s the best thing to a solution that I could find.

    I’ve been having the same PM spam issue. I’m considering the Friends-Only plugin, but wondering if it’s still working for you guys? You don’t have spammers sending tons of friend requests to everyone?

    Spambots created 81K groups on a client’s BP site. I assume I need to delete them from the database, as it will take too long to delete them in wp-admin.

    There are no other groups on this site, so I need to delete all groups.

    If I am deleting them from the db using phpmyadmin, what do I need to do to make sure I delete all their data without touching other data?

    Is there a better way to delete all 81K groups?

    I’ve created a site using Buddypress for a client. In testing, activation emails would be sent (sometimes to spam) but once the site launched my client started getting complaints from people not receiving their activation email, and their emails weren’t in their spam folders either.

    Some people are clicking ‘resend activation’ multiple times to no avail. While others are able to get in just fine. The site has over 3,000 users now and several hundred of them had to be activated by my client manually, which is unacceptable!

    Has anyone else had this issue where activation emails only SOMETIMES send? All the other posts I’ve seen about activation emails seem to be that none of them are working.

    What could be the solution for this intermittent sending?

    Hi,

    For evryone that experienced the same with the user with same ip adress in failed login report I found an soloution.I installed many security plugin even bought some but the problem was still there. Then One day I started to do 2 things. First I removed all the page that where not necessairy for my site. Second what I did was I removed couple plugins that where there but just in deactivation mode. Those 2 combination did the trick. Ore there was a plugin that was doing strange things ore it got confused off all the diffrente page in the background that i didnd’t needed. I easily removed 30 page.
    I hope one day if a person experience the same problem as me that this can guide him to a solution.

    For all the spambots, for me the All In One WP Security & Firewall helped really well to block spambots even before it could enter my site.

    greetings

    Hello,

    Due to a spam problem (having over 4000 groups that I cannot delete from wp-admin or it crashes the server each time), I would like to modify directly the group list so I can erase manually (with Filezila) all the groups.
    Could someone tell me where I could find the php file with all the group list/datas, please?

    I am on the right track now. I found out that Peepso shortcode was still in pages named the same as BP pages. So I deleted them all and made new ones for BP and they all are non peepso now.

    For the Groups issue, it is still happening though, even after deleting permanently the Groups page (in case attache din anyway with Peepso).

    All users are still marked as spammers. If i have to re enter them manually I will.

    I will have to try the register process now as it did not work before.

    Are you able to help with these remaining issues?

    I have Buddypress latest version i just installed, and Youser. There are several issues, like all members from my previous plugin (Peepso) are all marked as Spammers.

    We cannot create groups without an error.

    Profile pages are showing 404 errors.

    Any help with setup is greatly appreciated

    Not sure if this is a wordpress or buddypress issue so posting in both places. I run a writers community with buddypress and have set up forums where members can post pieces of work. We are experiencing some difficulty with the comment blacklist which prevents some words from being used even if within a word e.g. double breasted…. and one piece of work I can’t for the life of me find the word that is blocking the post… whilst I want to be able to stop spam comments, surely forum posts from members who have to be signed in to post is another thing? Any suggestions? I am useless with code :). Even if we had something which could identify the rogue word we could do something about it…

    Thank you

    Hi all
    Has anyone had this before:
    – Buddypress user posts a post in a group
    – I comment on it (as site/group admin – not sure what happens if another user does)
    – Refresh page, post disappeared!
    – Looking in Stream logs, it says I marked the post as spam
    – Looking in Activity, where the post should be, it says “The site is experiencing technical difficulties. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions.”
    – Checking the email box, I have the following email:

    “Since WordPress 5.2 there is a built-in feature that detects when a
    plugin or theme causes a fatal error on your site, and notifies you
    with this automated email.

    In this case, WordPress caught an error with one of your plugins, BuddyPress.”

    This has happened twice on my site now. Can anyone please help?

    Thanks!

    Are you using Akismet or some other spam blocking plugin? Also Topics are forums related, BuddyPress does not include forums, for those you’d be better off asking on that plugins forums.

    Hi,
    This is my first post, it’s exploratory. I’m hoping to find help with regard to a BuddyPress/Rehub install we are contemplating.
    We want to setup free and paid members. Paid member’s products visible to all members.
    So far straightforward, I hope, but where things change is that we want free member’s product to be visible only to their friends – across all product display elements, including profile page, search, directory, etc.
    I have read a little about the friends_check_friendship function and believe this can be done. Initially, I’m hoping to learn from anyone familiar with a BuddyPress/Rehub site if they imagine that creating this change to free member product visibility would be an extensive, reasonable or easy effort?
    Thank you in advance for any advice.

    This usually happens if a word used in your post has triggered our anti-spam system.

    Hello…

    How to adjust or better remove the “send to” box in Compose area in private messages, the length is very long and it doesn’t populate the users inside the box, instead the user names are populated above the send to box and it’s very confusing.

    If I can be pointed to the file where the code is located, I can make edits myself in the bp-custom.php file.

    Also, my website doesn’t allow users to send each other private messages unless they are Friends to cut down on spam.

    Thanks a bunch for your help in this matter.

    Is it possible to moderate publications made on the activities page? I saw that when we put in spam, we stopped viewing the page, would you have any way to make all the publications fall into spam for the administrator to allow their publication?

    Hi there,

    I think there’s two functions you would be interested in. One to redirect the logged in user too their activity page when they view the homepage and one to redirect them to their activity page following login.

    Unfortunately I can’t seem to post the code, it must be some anti spam software playing up.

    Hi,

    Could you help me ore give advice? I would like to find a plugin ore a way to track malicious code. A couple a weeks ago i noticed many spambots where getting true my security messures. I become suspicous when i noticed spam was created as a new group by the admin (me). I clicked on the icon of group admin that created the new spam group and it came back to my profile. So i started to do some investigation. Looking in the all in one security I noticed under failed login another user with my ip adress. This user had a bizare name (93e60…) During last 2 weeks he/she changed alot his/here username. Im 100 % shure that i’m the only person at home that use the site. It’s remarkable The user with my ip adres has no email adres in the all in one security. Anoter plugin i installed was stop spammers. It confirmed that an author with my ip adress by the name (93e60…) had a good cache in /wp-login.php, again there was no email adres.

    Did someone placed malicious code on my site? How can it be that they use my ip adress? I did a virus scan on my pc. Nothing was found. I contacted my host. They did a malware scan on the site, nothing was found. But the user with my ip is still there. I don’t know what to do, could you give me advise? Is there a plugin that could help, one that can track bad codes?

    Thank you very much

    So if it’s just a catalogue content creation type thing you should be able to do it with the right combination of plugins and a bit of customisation. You’d need to find a suitable solution for the product catalogue but it’s just a custom post type with specific templating. There’s a few ways of doing it, if you don’t need the eccommerce there’s no need for the bloat of it.

    Then you just need to sort out the user messaging, I’ve a plugin, BP Profile Shortcodes Extra, it’s got a private message shortcode, any vendor could use that to let their customers know how to contact them.

    I’ve another plugin, BP Messaging Control, it allows you to set rules on who can message who. Not sure if you want to control that but it could help stop sellers spamming users.

    There’s also stuff you can do to customise the messaging interface itself – you can insert content pretty easily and there’s a range of options for customising the use profile area, which is where BP Messaging lives.
