BuddyPress.org

I didn’t have a big problem with the look of the registration but the little cosmetic changes I made with handled with CSS. However, the message that appeared after the form was submitted, that needed work.

To customize it, I made a copy of register.php, modified the section where the message appeared and added this new directory in my child theme > mytheme/buddypress/members/register.php

Looks much better now. Hope this helps.

anyone solved this problem? When I get the css file from buddypress plugin to the css folder in my theme it doesnt show it too.It saves the cover image because when I remove the file I can see it but the problem is when i make changes on the css file I can also see the changes.

Is there any required php file to integrate it in the correct mode?

A screensho from my theme the black background is from just a css command not an image.

1. You could use the template for buddypress – members – single – settings
Here you could add a link inside the navigation div, right after the call to get-options-nav

This should be in your buddypress folder in your child theme.

2. I do not know

@winstart I can’t replicate any issue with avatar or cover image uploads, can you ensure you have any third party plugins disabled and test again with a plain WP/BP install preferably running a Stock WP theme i.e 2017.

I’ve closed the trac ticket for the moment, that’s more suitable when there is a proven issue.

You should use your theme’s style.css document. Editing core files isn’t recommended.

Have a look at this plugin: https://themekraft.com/products/woocommerce-buddypress-integration/

Hi Carsten,
Do you want to disable the toolbar(Rich text area) and use plain text area?

If that is the case, you can put following line in your theme’s functions.php or the bp-custom.php(in the plugins directory)

add_filter( 'bp_xprofile_is_richtext_enabled_for_field', '__return_false' );

Hope that helps.

The screen-reader-text accessibility class is something that all themes should have I agree. You’ll likely find some RTL styles that are worth keeping also.

Hi @gyrus

You can de-queue BuddyPress styles like @r-a-y suggested in that thread (see #202777). This won’t break anything functionality wise although, of course, it will change your theme’s look and feel because all of the styling information will be gone.

You have to update the theme in latest version to fix this issue.

Your line numbers do not match up with v2.9’s, which is why I recommend re-installing. Not sure how re-installing will cause problems unless you have directly modified core files in the past.

Regarding bp-custom.php, a quick search on Google would have explained what to do with it. Regardless, here’s the link to find out more:

bp-custom.php

If the code snippet I provided didn’t work in your theme’s functions.php, it most likely will not work in bp-custom.php either.

The other potential issue is there might be a plugin conflict.

Cannot duplicate this.

You might have a javascript conflict.

Try disabling all plugins except BuddyPress and try again. If it works, then it’s a plugin conflict somewhere. If you’re running a custom theme that has purported BuddyPress support, also switch to a default WordPress theme.

Hi,
You can put this in your bp-custom.php or yoour theme’s functions.php

add_filter( 'bp_activity_use_akismet', '__return_false' );

That should stop akismet from checking activity.

I cannot duplicate this report.

Can you test and see if this is due to a plugin conflict? Try disabling all plugins except BuddyPress to see if the problem still occurs.

Also try switching your theme.

See:

Buddypress avatars are blurry for post authors

If this doesn’t fix the problem, let us know.

It might be the case that a plugin is overriding BuddyPress’ avatar URL, you could try the following in your theme’s functions.php or wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:

// Replace BP's avatar override filter at a higher priority:
remove_filter( 'get_avatar_url', 'bp_core_get_avatar_data_url_filter', 10 );
add_filter( 'get_avatar_url', 'bp_core_get_avatar_data_url_filter', 99, 3 );

In your experience how compatible is buddyboss?

I’ve used a good number of BuddyBoss plugins and themes with BuddyPress without problems. If you do find an issue be sure to report it to them, their support is very good.

Nobody responded because a fresh BuddyPress install does not exhibit this problem and you didn’t provide enough details.

You can try disabling all your plugins except BuddyPress or changing your theme to see if the problem is with a plugin or theme.

Same issue here – patch also fixed.

Looks like both the OP and I are using the same theme – Extra by Elegant Themes

This might be a theme issue. Try contacting the theme author. Hopefully they can issue a fix. It might be worth mentioning Twenty Fifteen doesn’t have the problem.
