BuddyPress.org

Hi @alice-kaye. The avatars should be side to side by default. Site URL? What theme are you using?

Hi @nkeatign

BuddyPress ‘members’ and WordPress ‘authors’ share the same ID, therefore are the same entity. A post that belongs to WordPress author with ID 286 belongs to a BuddyPress member with ID 286 (because, again, they’re the same). If something isn’t displaying as you’d expect, then it’s likely to be a theme issue.

Which theme are you using?

@minglonaire you can also try https://bp-tricks.com/design/easily-hide-specific-tabs-on-buddypress-member-and-group-pages/ AND remove Activity from Themes > Menu in your wordpress admin dashboard

Both snippets are working. If really not for you, double-check that bp-custom.php is correctly using open/close php tags and if your theme doesn’t use some custom rss functions.

To remove the All members button :
remove line 19 in buddypress/activity/index.php from within your child theme.

<li class="selected" id="activity-all"><a href="<?php bp_activity_directory_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'The public activity for everyone on this site.', 'buddypress' ); ?>"><?php printf( __( 'All Members <span>%s</span>', 'buddypress' ), bp_get_total_member_count() ); ?></a></li>

and add class='selected' to the li containing friends item

If you remove the feeds display using the snippet, people won’t see anything even if they know the page url. And if this is not satisfying for you, you can write a rewrite rule to add to htaccess.

Untested but place the below code in bp-custom.php

function bp_help_redirect_to_members_page(){
if( !is_user_logged_in() && !bp_is_register_page() && !bp_is_activation_page() ) {
bp_core_redirect( get_option('home') . '/members/' );
}
}

add_action( 'template_redirect', 'bp_help_redirect_to_members_page',1);

Good luck!

Try this to remove ALL activity feeds

function bpfr_hide_rss_feeds() {	
   remove_action( 'bp_actions', 'bp_activity_action_sitewide_feed' );
   remove_action( 'bp_actions', 'bp_activity_action_personal_feed' );
   remove_action( 'bp_actions', 'bp_activity_action_friends_feed' );
   remove_action( 'bp_actions', 'bp_activity_action_my_groups_feed' );
   remove_action( 'bp_actions', 'bp_activity_action_mentions_feed' );
   remove_action( 'bp_actions', 'bp_activity_action_favorites_feed' );
   remove_action( 'groups_action_group_feed', 'groups_action_group_feed' );    
}
add_action('init', 'bpfr_hide_rss_feeds');

This snippet will only show logged in users friends activities (on all activity pages of the site)

function bpfr_filtering_activity( $retval ) {
	$retval['scope'] = 'friends';		
		return $retval;
	}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'bpfr_filtering_activity' );

Add to bp-custom.php or child-theme functions.php

This seems to be a continuous problem for buddypress users and its a problem that crops up ALOT on these forums maybe there should be a sticky thread about this css button issue people are having with various themes and installs? It might stop this same question being asked over and over again by new users? I know it does not happen to everyone but it does happen on quite alot of themes and alot of people are confused how to initially fix this issue.

@rosyteddy can i ask you a question? do you live on these forums? hehe. I thought i spent enough time knocking around here haha.

@kissui after a brief search for you i came across this i aint sure if this can help about the resize issue you have http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26581807/how-to-prevent-a-specific-animate-from-running-via-a-seperate-jquery-script

Each Group can have its own blog which can have different theme.
Each group per se probably cannot have its own theme but can have its own distinctive cover photo and its own thumbnail/photo/icon/logo. Thus they can look different indeed.

Different content : Yes, each group can have different content, in fact that is why the Groups are there for.

It depends on what theme you are using. Its a persistent problem with BP when various plugin add various buttons around the Whats new box in various ways in absence of any protocol.

If you are using BP specific themes like Thaim you can have a look or submit issue at https://github.com/imath/thaim/issues/5

Thanks

Hi @robjsinger

Are you using multisite? And when you say admin, do you mean super admin or just plain ol’ admin?

Also, which theme are you using? Plugins activated?

Hi @gauravk2

Sounds like you need to modify your templates. Check out the Template Hierarchy article for more info on how this can be done.

OK, I’m a newbie with BP but you have to:
1. edit/set up your registration page form fields that you want in Users > profile Fields.
2. you can edit the actual text found in the Registration page in registration.php file. Found here on your server: plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/register.php
3. you can edit the actual text found in the Activate page in activate.php file. Found here on your server: plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/activate.php

If you read the getting started docs they help a lot, and then search this forum and on the i/net you’ll find heaps more info.

Good luck!

MiniBuzz seems a bit outdated, and given as compatible up to WP 3.8 ! May work, but wouldn’t recommend to use it with WP 4.1.1 and BP 2.2.1

You have to debug ! 😉

You need to provide more information such as theme in use, plugins etc.

This is more than likely theme related, using a premium theme that doesn’t play nicely with BP, you can test this by activating one of the WP default themes and seeing if issue persists, if it does disable any plugins not required for a basic WP/BP site.

Which theme and plugins do yo use ?

have you enabled debug true in wp-config ? Maybe you will get some warnings or notices which can help to find a culprit.
