BuddyPress.org

Well, the size of the image is back to 1160px x 225px today??

Twenty Twenty

The image is 640px x 225px being displayed as 580px x 225px

StarKid

The image is 640px x 225px being displayed as 1160px x 225px

They both look blurry compared to the image that I uploaded – something to do with image optimisation? It hasn’t happened elsewhere on the website.

(I realise that it’s a huge file, when I was testing I tried making the image big in order to fix the problem).

I guess this means that the problem is within the StarKid theme, not the BuddyPress plugin?

Here is the solution for anyone who is going to see this post in the future.

1. Install the username change plugin:
https://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-username-changer/
2. Add to the plugins code (bp-change-username.php) on line 163;

xprofile_set_field_data(1, $user_id,  $new_user_name);

3. In your theme function.php file add the follow code to hide XProfile editing:

function bpfr_hide_profile_field_group( $retval ) {
        if ( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) ) :     

        // hide profile group/field to all except admin 
        if ( !is_super_admin() ) {
                //exlude fields, separated by comma
                $retval['exclude_fields'] = '1';  
                //exlude groups, separated by comma
                //$retval['exclude_groups'] = '1';
        } 
        return $retval;         

        endif;
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_profile_parse_args', 'bpfr_hide_profile_field_group' );

I hope this helps anyone who finds it.

I have tried changing the theme, but then the button disappears so i can’t test, I’m not aware of any custom code, the clients isn’t tech savy and won’t be able to tell us. I’ve been in contact with WP bakery’s support which is the page builder and they are saying that the issue is something to do with buddy press, how do i go about getting support from Buddy press ?

It was just the problem.
The 2021 theme.
I had uninstall all plugins, even the “Hello World” and “Akismet” plugins.
What means that the conflict was only with the theme.
Thank You very much for your help.

For everybody’s information: found out the file to modify

@vapvarun, correct, if I was to use the theme’s post tab to be default, I would go after theme customization.

I have to rephrase my original question:

“I will not use my theme’s posts tab. I am trying to find out which BP source file to add a view that shows member’s own posts.”
