You need to create the code. Do so in bp-custom.php.

@mahwash, afaik your layout is absolutely how it should be! To be convinced, try one of the Twenty theme, and you will get exactly the same thing.

If you want to modify the avatar position, try to play with the div class activity-avatar.

If you don’t know how, you have to learn.

Hi,

check your html and any other work you recently made in your theme.

To understand, see what you published in your latest post, above. You’re nesting two img tag! That’s wrong…

Also, don’t forget to check the theme – switch to any default, like 2017, 2016, 2015 etc.

Sure, you will need to filter out the $arguments variable in my code for the required by you activity_type.

You can put the resulting code into a separate custom plugin or in https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-custom-php/

Super easy solution is to do like this:

1) find or create a buddypress/activity/post-form.php file in your theme
2) find in that file a textarea with id="whats-new" and add maxlength="143" to its attributes so it will become something like this:
<textarea class="bp-suggestions" maxlength="143" name="whats-new" id="whats-new" cols="50" rows="10"....
3) save and done.

It will limit globally, though. If only in groups (not modifiying activity directory and profiles) – wrap it in a p_is_group() like this
<textarea class="bp-suggestions" <?php echo bp_is_group() ? 'maxlength="143"' : '';?> name="whats-new" id="whats-new" cols="50" rows="10"....

Try this add_filter('show_admin_bar', '__return_false');. Put it in bp-custom.php or in your child theme functions.php.

The problem might be with styling for Admin Bar. Just a guess.

This sounds like it could be a conflict with other software loaded, have you tried disabling any other plugins? Also, it may be a theme conflict so you could try it running a default theme such as 2016.

Can you follow up on Paul’s suggestion?

Do you have NOBLOGREDIRECT defined anywhere? Check wp-config.php or check if a plugin or theme is defining it somewhere.

I’ve added a patch that should fix this issue if NOBLOGREDIRECT is defined, but is running from single site:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/7441/7441.01.patch

Can you test this out and let us know if this fixes things for you?

Talk to your theme author.

It may be due to a javascript conflict with your theme or some other plugin.

To check if it’s your theme, try switching momentarily to a WP theme like 2015 and see if the issue persists.

It’s doubtful that anyone here will have a solution.

It’s probably due to a conflict with your theme or some other plugin.

You can remove it by creating a template overload of this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\index.php

Remove this code:

	<?php /* Backward compatibility for inline search form. Use template part instead. */ ?>
	<?php if ( has_filter( 'bp_directory_members_search_form' ) ) : ?>

		<div id="members-dir-search" class="dir-search" role="search">
			<?php bp_directory_members_search_form(); ?>
		</div><!-- #members-dir-search -->

	<?php else: ?>

		<?php bp_get_template_part( 'common/search/dir-search-form' ); ?>

	<?php endif; ?>

Nice work! That looks like it ought to work. Assuming you’re logged in. Assuming that user has that capability.

Have you tried adding text or something just output that PHP block, to double-check your edited template is actually being used? You might be touching the wrong file.

Failing that, it might be output, but just hidden by your theme’s CSS? Have you checked for this element inside the web browser’s inspector tools, have you found it?

Alternatively, you could use this code, but I don’t see why it would make any difference:

<?php if ( is_super_admin() ) : ?>
  <div>hello world</div>
<?php endif; ?>

^ That slightly different syntax for PHP in these template files (note the {} are gone) makes the file slightly more readable/less prone to be accidentally broken.

You might be running a theme with BuddyPress-specific files. Have a hunt around your theme, look for a similar structure. etc

Hi, I’m having the activation email issue as well. I’m running exactly the same install as I was on a another site 2 weeks ago (before upgrading to WP 4.72) that worked fine. This one I can’t even send messages manually. I’m a plug and play person; no coding skills. If these things don’t work, I don’t know where to begin. Guidance is appreciated.
WP 4.72
WP default 2017 theme
all plugins disabled except BP

Go to /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/. The four files — activate, index, members-loop, and register — are templates used for the Members Directory. Ignore the single subfolder; that’s used for individual member pages.

You will want the index.php file.

In your theme, create a buddypress/members subfolder. e.g. /wp-content/themes/my-theme/buddypress/members/. You’ll need to create both directories if they’re missing. Copy that index.php we found earlier into this new directory.

e.g. you’ll end up with /wp-content/themes/my-theme/buddypress/members/index.php. You’ll want to play around in this file to find where you want to add your custom CSS, which I’ll leave to you to figure out.

No, you’re not. It’s just not used very well. I’d like to get rid of it one day, but we’re trying to get a new theme for the website built first. Sorry for the inconvenience in the meantime.
