I have created a hidden Group and when testing with a member of that group it does not show. It says Viewing 1 group however there is no group listed.
I would like to list Hidden Groups on the member’s profile under My Groups.
Thanks for the help
I am using OceanWP theme at http://www.sbsg.dev
Hello guys how are you?
I’ve noticed the first widget window of the sidebar is not in line with the content of the page itself. Is there a way to make the content or the widget windows down a bit so that the two are in line with each other?
I am attaching a screenshot to make you understand what I mean. I hope you’ll help me.
I’ve already contacted my theme support and they told me it has something to do with Buddypress.

Thank you.
Because a lot of people search for this i post my sollution here.
To have some pages of buddypress with a sidebar and some not you can do this! copy page.php into a new file and call it buddypress.php. Then upload it to your childtheme folder.
Then where the sidebar is called change the get_sidebar() into:
<?php
if ( is_page( array( 'spreekkamers', 'forums', 'activiteiten', '0' ) ) ) :
get_sidebar();
endif;
?>
In this array you can write the names of the pages you want to have a sidebar shown.
For the my profile page I used page id 0 because that was the only possibility to get the sidebar on the profile page. This is because its connected to the members page. I did not want a sidebar on the memberspage.
Then a little of css will make the site look good again.
In my case it was this css, because it was only about one page:
body.page-id-3139 div#primary {
max-width: 100% !important;
width: 100% !important;
}
Thank you vapvarun for pointing me to the right way!!
ok, is there an example somewhere about the conditional wrapping???
And, I place the buddypress.php straight into my childtheme or in childtheme/buddypress/
thanks for this reply
@havealookhere inside the child theme create buddypress.php based on page.php and remove sidebar codes from it to make it full width, you can wrap it with conditional to keep it limited for members directory only.
Hi @neets1604
Thanks for your feedback and thanks for using BuddyPress for 3 years. This email issue happens in BuddyPress because some custom code is overriding our PHPMailer class, that’s the reason why we haven’t identified this issue during our beta release period.
I’d like to remind you it’s important when users have specific configurations that they gives us a hand to identify these cases during the BuddyPress beta release periods: we cannot test all Themes, all plugins extending BuddyPress and all users specific configurations.
There’s a plugin to make it easier to test our beta releases, I’d advise you to use it on a staging site to contribute to the project.
Finally, the upgrade that will fix this issue will be available for download next monday.
Hey all, I’m trying to start the process of redesigning an old Buddypress installation using the legacy theme.
I want to update to bp-noveau, so I’ve dumped the /bp-templates/bp-noveau/ files into my theme into a /buddypress/ folder and all is working fine
However, it is extremely barebones. The CSS is, well…oof.
Does anyone know of a “very simple” (free) bp-noveau theme I can use and build off of? Basically something that already has a very solid design base, but not crazy complex where editing it is a massive hassle.
@judymacmahon try to replicate with default 2020 theme

Buddypress is a necessary plug-in for the theme of my website. I used to use the 6.0.0 version of buddypress. After upgrading to 6.2.0, I found that the website crashed, so I manually deleted the plug-in folder and replaced it with the old version 6.0.0. As a result, the website still crashed and remained in the new state of 6.2.0 version.why? what should i do to modify it to return to the original normal state!?
Hello there,
As we install BuddyPress, regardless of the theme, two new widget areas appear namely:
BuddyPress Member’s Home, and
BuddyPress Group’s Home.
For me, no widget placed in these widget areas appears.
WordPress, BuddyPress and GeneratePress (theme) are all updated to latest versions.
Please help.
Best Regards.

Is there a way of adding a label or badge to users avatars according to their member types so when avatars are in a list you can see form their badge what member tyoe they are. Like the image below…

now i found out how to make it work in my child theme (created directory: ‘buddypress’ – ‘members’ and placed the changed kopy of the template in there).
now i’m just searching for the individual user data…
Hi again,
i found the loop-template.
if i have made my changes, where do i store this individual template?
if i put it in my child theme folder, it isn’t working, even if i rebuild the exact path of the buddypress directories.
and i still didn’t find the individual user data…
thanks!
Ok, thanks!
I’m using BuddyPress and the BeTheme
Do i have to search the members loop template in the BuddyPress plugin directory or in the theme directory?
could you tell me how the loop template is named?
and where do i find the profile data?
thanks!
Hi. First of all, thank you very much for the plugin.
I wanted to ask, if anyone knows why this happens to me in notifications:
https://i.ibb.co/tbH1yKw/Anotaci-n-2020-09-06-092924.jpg
I use the twentytwenty theme on localhost with WinNMP.
Thank you very much.
Are you using BuddyPress or BuddyBoss ?
Are you using some theme that shows the members in a grid?
You need to find the members loop template and use or add a hook in that template so that you can generate the display of profile data in that area.
Hello 🙂
I’m new here. Where can I change the Friend Request Accept button ( http://prntscr.com/u99e35 ) and Join Group button ( http://prntscr.com/u98ia5 )? I was checking the theme color setting but it didn’t reflect these buttons.
When composing a message to more than one user, we get an immediate error message that says “There has been a critical error on your website”. The message will still be sent and you can find it in your sent folder. However, it does not send the copy to the user’s personal email. Sending a message to one single user works fine (with no error message and a copy sent to the user’s personal email).
Everything was working fine until we updated to BuddyPress 6.2.0 and WordPress 5.5. We also run a highend theme.
Advice please.
UPDATE: I changed the theme from Site Origin Vantage to WP 2020. Still couldn’t upload cover image.
Hi everyone, I am new to BuddyPress and I founded amazing! Really easy to install and Set-up.
I am just having issue with one page, the profile page. When I go to members page (http://www.montesdeoca.guachis.com/miembros/) everything is fine but when I go further in one member (http://www.montesdeoca.guachis.com/miembros/joacotest/) all the header messed up, also the sticky one I believe that is going to a default version and not to the right one.
Wordpress ver: 5.5
BuddyPress: 6.2.0
Theme: Buzzy Mikado
Any idea or clue will be really appreciated.
Thanks!
Hello.
I am also looking to link the author’s box to the BB profile page instead of the standard authors page.
I am using buddyboss and the buddyboss child theme.
I wish i was more proficient at coding, but i am not, so I need advice on how to do this please.
How would I create the function that will link to the BB profile page?
// Change Post’s Author URL to Buddypress Profile URL
add_filter(‘generate_post_author_output’,’generate_post_author_output_buddyprss_url’);
function generate_post_author_output_buddyprss_url( $post_author_profile_link ){
$post_author_profile_link = sprintf( ‘ <span class=”byline”>%1$s</span>’,
sprintf( ‘<span class=”author vcard” itemtype=”http://schema.org/Person” itemscope=”itemscope” itemprop=”author”>%1$s <span class=”author-name” itemprop=”name”>%4$s</span></span>’,
__( ‘by’,’generatepress’),
esc_url( bp_core_get_user_domain( get_the_author_meta( ‘ID’ ) ) ),
esc_attr( sprintf( __( ‘Know more about %s’, ‘generatepress’ ), get_the_author() ) ),
esc_html( get_the_author() )
)
) ;
return $post_author_profile_link;
}
feel like I’m about to punch a wall!
Groups sorting in buddypress is not working. I’m on generic 2020 theme. Buddypress installed. Everything else deactivated.
Normal all members search -> fine
Switch to NOUVEU, turn off groups homepage and go to members page search -> fine
NOTHING else works.
I’m on kinsta. Anyone else having similar problems?
