After you has activated the account, you will need to login that’s the normal process. Theme my login can change that I believe, but that’s down to Theme My Login, check with their support.

The forgot password link is visible on my sites, try deactivating all other plugins and switching to the 2017 theme to check there are no conflicts getting in the way.

> and it suggests that this is not a default setting

It’s not a setting at all.
Some other code or plugin is causing your issue. Try deactivating other plugins.
It may also be theme-related – to find out, try switching to a theme like WP 2016.

If you deactivate Theme My Login does it work?

I am having the same issue, but I do not have a child-theme. Also, where do I locate the custom file?

One thing you could try to use BP Template Overloader to create a theme independent overload for Nouveau, this changes the loading of templates to a separate directory and should work.

You have an overloaded copy of themes/child-theme/buddypress/members/single/home.php it’s calling a function that is no longer used – bp_is_user_forum() this needs to be removed.

Forgot to mention:

Theme: Thive 3.0.2
BP: 3.1.0
WP: 4.9.6

How to remove on the same function the ‘last_activity’

Theme: Thive 3.0.2
BP: 3.1.0
WP: 4.9.6

One thing to try, I seem to remember that it might work if you put it in child-theme/buddypress/buddypress/... worth a try but I’ve not tried it myself.

If you just copy the contents of /wp-content/plugins/bp-templates/bp-nouveau/buddypress/

to

/wp-content/themes/mytheme/buddypress

then you can edit those files.

Inside this folder:

/wp-content/themes/mytheme/buddypress

You should then have:

activity
assets
blogs
common
groups
members

— In other words, these are the only subfolders that you will be able to modify this way.

Some other things to keep in mind, and sorry if you already know, but temporarily deactivate caching and/or minification plugins while editing, and depending on your browser settings, delete cache

If you just copy the members folder over to /yourchildtheme/buddypress, that should work. yes/no?

Hi, I am experiencing this problem with Nouveau. I can replicate the exact behavior outlined in Aron’s initial post. (Latest WP, BP 3.1.0, BuddyBoss Boss Child Theme)

Please advice – I didn’t see Nouveau addressed in the trac link provided above.

Also, do you have a workaround for Nouveau? I don’t have developer level skills but can add css code to my child theme.

Thank you, very much, for your help.

Here’s what I found:

add_action( 'bp_core_validate_user_signup', 'custom_validate_user_signup' );

function custom_validate_user_signup($result)
{
  unset($result['errors']->errors['user_name']);

  if(!empty($result['user_email']) && empty($result['errors']->errors['user_email']))
  {
    $result['user_name'] = md5($result['user_email']);
    $_POST['signup_username'] = $result['user_name'];
  }

  return $result;
}

You would also need to copy plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-nouveau (or bp-legacy ) /buddypress/members/register.php tothemes/your-child-theme/buddypress/members/register.php and edit it to remove the section that asks for the username:

<label for="signup_username"><?php _e( 'Username', 'buddypress' ); ?> <?php _e( '(required)', 'buddypress' ); ?></label>
<?php do_action( 'bp_signup_username_errors' ); ?>
<input type="text" name="signup_username" id="signup_username" value="<?php bp_signup_username_value(); ?>" />

@nero2018 Check with your theme support.

1. To hide admin bar to non-logged in user, you can use a plugin name Remove Dashboard Access.

2. There is no direct method to make BuddyPress profile page full-width. You can achieve this by editing Buddypress templates. To do this
Create a child theme
Put Buddypress folder in your child theme and edit the profile template. To do we should understand the templating system of Buddypress. Here is a tutorial for that.

3. You can use a plugin by Buddydev which lets you write posts from front end and add blog tab under user’s profile menu.

Hope this help you.

Cover Image issue should be theme specific, try to debug it using default wp theme for a while.

@mojomo I had tried with nginx and seem worked fine, Can you try to switch your theme to default WP to debug the issue.

@somethingelse Please make sure you have enabled group component. If that’s already enabled try with default WordPress theme to debug any site-specific issue.
