Support team, same question, theme Buddy X, ok I agree to see my profile in search, but in the settings of WordPress I indicated a nickname, but when viewing my profile, I see Login instead, there is one more question, now we will create a new topic …
Hi @veshop,
You’re in luck. The Gwangi theme actually has the option to do exactly this in their latest version, so this should be a simple fix for you. Go to Appearance > Customise > BuddyPress > Members Directory > check the “Hide myself” box and Publish the change and you should be all done!
Best of luck.
Hi @veshop,
Which theme are you using?
Hi @leahkoerper
Thanks a lot for these new inputs. I’ve tested what you’ve described to try to reproduce the issue. I’ve created 3 new users on my development environment:
– User A is contributor
– User B is Editor
– User C is Subscriber
Being an admin, I’ve added a field without enforcing the field visibility.
Users A, B & C can change the field visibility and the field visibility they chose is fully respected.
So I can’t reproduce your issue with a fresh WordPress install with only BuddyPress being activated.
I believe you may have some code running on your config that prevents BuddyPress to act like it should. If it’s not a plugin or a theme, try to look if there’s an existing wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php
file or a wp-content/mu-plugins/
directory with files in it.
Hello,
I’m building the registration page of my new website using BuddyPress 8.0. I’ve encountered an issue that seems to be related to the new “Terms Acceptance” checkbox profile field, and the total number of fields that are in the “Signup Fields” group.
I want the terms acceptance checkbox to be at the bottom of my registration page, and have ordered the “Signup Fields” group accordingly. The terms acceptance box will stay at the bottom of the list, until I add more than 8 fields to the “Signup Fields” group, and reorder these fields. The terms acceptance box will then move itself to the second position on the list within the “Signup Fields” group. If I reorder the fields again, the same issue will still occur. The only way I can fix it is to remove other fields from the group so that there is no more than 8 in total.
I’ve tried using a different theme and turning off all plugins except for BP, and the issue still occurs. Is there a limit on the number of fields that can be included in the “Signup Fields” group tab? I’d really like to include more than 8 field options.
Thank you.
Thanks I already deactivated everything except BuddyBoss plugin and switched themes, and the homepage was in the new theme but all other pages were still in the BuddyX theme and still had the issues. Also, repeatedly clicking the home button caused the homepage to cycle through the BuddyX (inactive) theme and the active theme. That’s weird, right?
To narrow it down, take the usual debugging steps.
For example, switch to a WP theme like 2020.
You can open a support ticket at BuddyBoss.
You can send an email to BuddyX.
All those steps will be more productive than posting in these forums.
These are the forums for BuddyPress.
Please send your questions to BuddyBoss and / or the creators of the BuddyX theme.
I put it in the theme’s function.php and it worked 😀
Thank you very much
Hi @mastersat
Thanks for your feedback, could you tell us:
– what Theme you are using?
– do you know if this Theme or a Plugin is overriding BuddyPress Templates?
– if you have no idea about the above points could you look into your themes/plugins files to see if there’s a members/single/home.php
file?
Copy the function that I wrote for you and paste it in the functions.php file in your theme.
I added buddypress groups. On many example pages I see on a group page tabs on top to choose the menu options. I tried different themes, I can only add a menu in the sidebar.
And I can not find the “Manage the Groups default front page” option that is spoken about on this forum. Do I need an extra plugin for that?
buddypress 8.0.0
BuddyX buddypress theme active
I also have buddypress group chatroom, buddypress for pwa for wp, LearnDash working together.
#1 question: When I do not have the Activity page Private, anyone in the world can see a chunk of activity if they have the link (such as who friended whom. it does seem to not show conversations).
Isn’t there a way to have the activity be Private so random ppl can’t see anything that’s going on in the Private group???
#2 question: When I try to add people to a private group nothing happens. I type in the user name or the first few letters into the ADD new members space and no names pop up and nothing happens except an error saying “the following users could not be added to the group”
I’d like to be able to add them without them having to request to join so they can get notifications right away.
I do NOT want to alter code because things like that freak me out that I’ll break something or forget where I added code if I need to remove it etc.
Please help
Use the filter hook to unset that element from the options array.
This is the hook: apply_filters( 'bp_nouveau_get_members_filters', $filters, $context );
Found in: buddypress\bp-templates\bp-nouveau\includes\members\functions.php
function mitsuh_remove_alphabetical( $filters, $context ) {
unset( $filters['alphabetical'] );
return $filters;
}
add_filter('bp_nouveau_get_members_filters', 'mitsuh_remove_alphabetical', 20, 2 );
Put it in your theme > functions.php
Switch to a WP theme like 2020.
If the issue does not persist, you know it is related to woffice.
HI,
Sorry and Thank you I will go somewhere else. I do not know what a standard bp layout is but the image is what the bp and bp featured member plugin generated.
The theme is woffice and their support team may answer a support ticket if they feel like it. I have been waiting for days. The bp featured member plugin developer could not figure it out after 3 days. The only plugin left is BP. I thought maybe I would find some help.
The error is in members-header-action, a ul list has 4 items and they all bunched together. Can you point me in a direction I can google search for?
Thanks for your assistance. I will not do it again.
Should I be able to use the Visual Composer in BuddyPress groups to create posts, comments and replies? I’m using the Thimpress Eduma theme which claims to be compatible with BuddyPress.
At present I’m creating my content in a post and then copying the source text into the BuddyPress post, which is very cumbersome.
That is not a standard BP layout.
And nobody can help you based on a screenshot.
You need to look at the css for your theme or ask the creators of your theme.
Hello,
Just recently issues with community signups. Email address says
All was fine yesterday, theme updated. No major changes.
“Sorry, that email address is not allowed”
I’m just wondering is anyone else had experienced this?
I’m bit amazed by this
enabled direct registration of new members and disabled email confirmation
As far as I know, a user registering from the front-end (managed by BuddyPress) is first receiving an email containing a secret key he needs to paste into the BuddyPress activate page to validate their account. But maybe you are using a plugin or some custom code to disable this..
Otherwise, you can achieve what you describe adding the following code snippets to a bp-custom.php file.
/**
* Adds activities generated when a user activates their account when a user
* is created using the wp-admin/user-new screen Add new action.
*/
function automatically_generate_an_activation_activity( $user_id = 0 ) {
// Adds a "became a registered user" activity.
bp_core_new_user_activity( $user_id );
// Fake a user log in.
bp_update_user_last_activity( $user_id );
}
add_action( 'edit_user_created_user', 'automatically_generate_an_activation_activity' );
Hi @b4ureye,
Ok, can you reply to the following questions:
– What is the name of your active theme?
– If it’s a child-theme, what is the name of the parent theme ? You can find this information into the template:
header of the style.css
file of your child-theme.
– Does this theme contains a members
directory or a buddypress/members
directory?
– if so does this directory contains a register.php
file?
– if so can you share on Gist.Github.com the content of this file?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Hello all,
I speak no very well english. I hope to you will understand me.
My current WP configuration:
Theme used: buddyX
plugins: buddypress, BPprofilsearch, Youzify, BuddyPress Xprofile custom field types,
I want to make a paid registration module with several price levels offering different possibilities.
I would like to add 3 types of profile. 1/ man member profile , 2/ girl member profile and 3/ profile for people who consult members’ files (visitors). I want the choice of profile type to give a different registration form page.
The informations in the cells to be completed in the registration form is transferred to the profile area of ​​each member’s file in buddypress.
The plugins ” WP profile search” allows to filter on the member directory page.
The different filter possibilities are direct transfers of the cells to fill in the registration form.
Do you know how to create this type of registration has 3 profil, therefore offering 3 different registration forms, and keeping the operating principle of buddy press knowing that the type of profile must also be in the sorting of WP profile search ?
Thank you by advance !
Hi @b4ureye this notice means you are overriding the members/register.php template from your theme.
You need to update your custom template so that the signup xProfile loop uses the bp_xprofile_signup_args()
function.
I guess your active Template Pack is BP Legacy, so I advise you to have a look to https://github.com/buddypress/buddypress/blob/master/src/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/register.php#L168 to figure out what to replace by what.
@leahkoerper can you confirm it’s also happening when the active theme is Twenty Twenty-One ?
FYI, @vapvarun’s code snippet worked great for displaying the full description, but I just checked the error log and noticed a zillion warnings to this effect:
PHP Warning: Use of undefined constant bp_full_group_desc_callback – assumed ‘bp_full_group_desc_callback’ (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in /home/[account]/public_html/wp-content/themes/[child-theme]/functions.php on line 33
I added single quotes around the constant, and that seems to have cleared it up:
add_filter( ‘bp_nouveau_get_group_description_excerpt’, ‘bp_full_group_desc_callback’, 10, 3 );
Cheers!
