BuddyPress.org

@ldesherl I think it might help if you could leave that link above switched to a WP default theme and with all plugins deactivated, just while you’re seeking help for this issue, as things stand I see no sight of BuddyPress or bbPress running, and the theme is a custom one with a lot of plugins running. Buddypress should default to using a series of pages that it will create, your ‘Activity’ example is named with a custom title, you also seem to have a lot of trashed pages as the members page slug has ‘-7’ added suggesting 6 other copies of a page named ‘members’ try deleting those.

@mrunal2989 the easiest way to center the registration page to select the full-width page template (instead of the Default Template) of your theme from the “Register” page Page Attribute box and then use CSS on the #buddypress wrapper to center the registration page. e.g. add

#buddypress {
     width: 90%; 
     margin-left: auto; 
     margin-right: auto; 
} 

to your theme’s stylesheet.

Because you are using a child theme, you have to register cover image support separately.

Read this section:
https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/buddypress-cover-images/#about-buddypress-css-overrides

For $theme_handle, since you’re using a child theme, you’ll need to change this to:

$theme_handle = 'bp-child-css';

If your cover image is similar to bp-legacy, you can also change $settings['callback'] to:

$settings['callback'] = 'bp_legacy_theme_cover_image';

Otherwise, write your own callback function by copying and modifying bp_legacy_theme_cover_image(). Don’t forget to change the $settings['callback'] variable to your custom function name if you go this route.

@mdbhojwani Google BuddyBoss theme.. They have amazingly crafted theme that looks similar to FB

Try using Theme My Login.

Ahh I see. I haven’t used that approach personally for my custom CSS. Just got the one CSS file (style.css) for everything at the moment, WP Theme and BuddyPress. I use comments and sections to organise it.

I can only think of a few things to try, though you probably have done these already (ensure the cover image option is ticked in the WP dashboard):

1. Remove all your custom CSS files temporarily and see if the cover image appears by default. If it does, then the problem is probably isolated to your CSS rather than with BuddyPress or your main Theme.
2. Use the browser developer tools (F12) to see if the id for cover image appears in the code even if you can’t see anything on screen. If it does try manipulating its attributes to bring it to the foreground as it may be hidden beneath other layers (z-index). Or display: none layers around it to see what is hiding it.
3. Check the id’s against your CSS. New id’s were obviously introduced for the cover image which weren’t in old BuddyPress CSS files which you may have used as a base for your custom one.
4. Try another theme with your custom CSS to see if it is a theme issue
5. Put all your custom BuddyPress CSS into the standard style.css file within a child theme and see if it works that way.

HI ! I have the same problem … I understand what coeycoey writes , here is the explanation ;

Add BuddyPress Styles to a Theme

Everything is great and everything works , just does not appear cover image … ??? any Solution ?

Hi,
Comments who are already registered in activities stay in the feed. If you don’t want to see them, you have to remove them manually in the activity manager.

Once an activity comment is deactivated, the button isn’t visible in the feed.

Try this method and add the code to bp-custom.php, so you stay also theme independant.

function bpfr_activity_nocomment( $can_comment = true, $type = '' ) {
        if ( empty( $can_comment ) ) {
                return $can_comment;
        }
 
        //handling the activity types we want to disable
	//to get activity type names, go to the DB and check the "type" column in xx_bp_activity table	
        $cant_comment_types = array( 
	   'new_forum_topic' => 1,
	   'new_forum_post' => 1,
        );
 
        return ! isset( $cant_comment_types[ $type ] );
}
add_filter( 'bp_activity_can_comment', 'bpfr_activity_nocomment', 10, 2 );

Hi,

Not used LearnPress so unable to comment much on that . The method I used to insert/display my own custom profile fields into a header on the user activity page was as follows (in this case, a Location field which was created in the WP dashboard).

1. Add to bp-custom.php :

//Add Location field to header if user has entered data into it
//Nothing is shown if user hasn't entered anything into field
function bptest_show_location_field () {
	$location_field = bp_get_member_profile_data( 'field=Location' ); 
	if ( ! $location_field  ) { 
	   return; 
	}   
	else {
	   echo '<span class="custom-field-text">' . $location_field . '</span>'; 
	}
}
//user_bio_location_field is used within the member-header php template file
add_action ( 'user_location_field', 'bptest_show_location_field' );

2. In my member-header.php file (which was copied into my child theme) entered the div :

<div id="user-location">
	<?php 
		do_action ( 'user_location_field' ); 
	?>
</div><!-- #user-location - function is found in bp-custom -->

Obviously the php code in step two is placed wherever you want the field to display, just put it in the correct location of the correct php file. In my case it was member-header.php but for you i’m guessing its the one that generates your order page?.

Not sure if you have already tried any of that or if it even helps!

Maybe I’m misunderstanding you, not sure from your description whether or not you have already created a child theme with your own CSS file?

https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

You can just make all your styling changes in that instead of copying various whole CSS files from the BuddyPress folders (and your changes will be kept whenever WP or BP are updated).

Also double check the box for cover photo is ticked on your WP dashboard if you want your users to be able to use them.

Where are you viewing the profile field?
On a member profile page?
If so, you can use this php function bp_the_profile_field_description() in a template overload of buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\profile\profile-loop.php.

If you mean the register page, create a template overload of that template
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\register.php
and move the call to bp_the_profile_field_description() wherever you want it.

I don’t think you can do it with just css.

Translated to 100% doesn’t mean updated to 100%. Have you verified any of your translation with the .pot file ?

Normally, an update (plugin, theme,..) is shipped with his most recent pot file. Open the .po file with poEdit and run an update from pot.

With poEdit you can also check the file and the line number containing the word you’re not able to translate. With this information, control the file content and verify that the string is correctly formatted for i18n. Sometimes, a localization is omitted, or in case of buttons, the error can be in a js file… You have to investigate attentively. I can’t help you more, sorry. 😉

Hi,

check your theme translation or menu settings and eventually your plugins (if you use some).

On your members page source code, there is a long phrase in english inside a div which is not from BuddyPress:
You can browse all activities here. Use menu below if you want to browse only specific activities like […]

The theme was published in 2013, it could be possible that it is not updated for latest BP version…

So far no issues at this point – did have to copy the old css file over to the new theme folder but that seemed insignifigant.

this seems like an interesting tack.. what made you think of this? and where did you find the old CSS (vs, there was a new one?) ?

I’m having trouble now with the Kami theme and the bp plugin.. even with everything else deactivated, this one fails.. sooo frustrating.

You will need to create a template overload of this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\profile\profile-loop.php

And write a conditional to handle the visibility of that field.

What is [UPB_profile_list] ?
A shortcode?
If so, where and why is it being called?
Try switching to a theme like WP 2013.
If the problems go away, you know there are issues in your preferred theme.

There may be an issue with your theme.

You need to add the widget

You should try to find out what’s causing such a huge memory usage. Start off with the default Twenty Fifteen theme and no plugins activated. Then activate your plugins one-by-one, to find the culprit.
