Hi there,
I’d deactivate all other plugins and switch to the 2017 theme then see if that works.
Hi, I have set up the Aardvark Theme with Buddypress, and for some reason the activation email is not being sent. I have tried several times. Any idea what I need to do? Thanks.

Hi there, do you mean the register.php file in the bp-templates/your-template/buddypress/members ?
You can overload that file https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/a-quick-look-at-1-7-theme-compatibility/#how-is-this-useful
In a standard BP install, there is no “Comment” step when joining a group.
Your site has added that behavior via your theme, some other plugin or some custom code.
If you are using the Legacy template pack, this is the file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\settings\notifications.php
For the Nouveau pack, it is:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-nouveau\buddypress\members\single\settings\notifications.php
Both files can be over-loaded.
Hi,
I added this pagination function to my site, for the members directory, but actually I would rather have it to ajax load more.
Is there a function or plugin that does that?
add_filter( ‘bp_after_has_members_parse_args’, ‘wbcom_theme_alter_members_parse_args’ );
function wbcom_theme_alter_members_parse_args( $loop ) {
if ( bp_is_members_directory() ) {
{
$loop[‘per_page’] = 20;
}
}
return $loop;
}
Kind regards,
Debby
Hi,
You can check out https://www.buddyboss.com/themes/
(not my site)
Yeah.. WP/BP is a little weird like that.. i mean.. look at the twenty nineteen theme as a recent example..
BUT im a fan of it regardless because it allows me to prototype really fast and understand what needs to happen next within a few hours.. anyway..
you asked for an example/demo.. https://www.buddyboss.com/ is pretty good.
Hi again,
Just in case it will be of help to anyone else, I was finally able to remove the message “notification” using this code.
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', function () {
remove_action( 'messages_message_sent', 'bp_messages_message_sent_add_notification', 10 );
}, 999 );
I’m not sure why the other one didn’t work for me. (I’m using Boss theme). Support was kind enough to provide me this fix.
When I put my theme, there’s a blank page. However, there’s no blank page with other themes like 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019 and Shapely.
I am still having the same issue. I’ve disabled all the plugins except BuddyPress, bbpress, contact form, profile. I’ve also switched the theme to 2012. I’m still getting the same result. Members of hidden groups can see the hidden group, but admin’s can.
Thanks for the quick answer.
Regarding #2: I do not have many pluggins but followed your suggestions, I have deactivated all the pluggins and have also used 2017 theme, but the result is the same.
The username is recognized, the problem is with the password. Even resetting the password through Dashboard/users/reset password, doesn’t work. Allways the message is the same (Oops, that’s not the right password. Please try again!)
Thanks again
Hi there,
1. By default BP is an open site – members page and any others will be publicly available. There’s a bunch of plugins that change this google buddypress privacy etc to find them.
2. Is this due to the member password not being recognised?
3. and 2. sound like you probably have a plugin conflict. try deactivating all other plugins and testing. It’s also worth switching to a default theme such as 2017 for this test.
4. Users are only listed in the members list after they have logged in at least once.
Hi,
I’m seeing a strange issue with Buddypress, that for each time a member signs in, their buddypress @name gets a -2 added to their name, e.g. @collegeadmin-2-2-2-2-2 – the same behaviour exists whether I use a default theme, e.g. twentyseventeen, or a BB theme, e.g. Kleo. Has anybody else encountered such behaviour and can you suggest a fix? We’re using the user’s Email as their username and using SAML SSO, if that makes any difference.
Many thanks,
Paul
Hello, while I’ve gotten the site to fail a registration with an incorrect number using what you suggested above, it doesn’t display any error message of sorts. My line is: $bp->signup->errors['invalid_number'] = __( 'Please enter a valid phone number', 'buddypress' ); This is in my bp-custom.php class, in the function that gets added to the hook bp_signup_validate, when an incorrect phone number is determined. The site properly fails a registration with an incorrect number, while allowing registration with a correct one, but it doesn’t display any error pop up at all, even though I included an error message of sorts with the latter half of the line. Is this a code issue, or could this potentially be a theme issue? I’m using the Spacious theme if this helps
Hello,
How I can adapt my theme for buddypress? I must do it because loading (nouveau) don’t working.
Hi.
Thank you so much for a detailed answer. I think I understand what you are saying. Other than installing buddypress, extra plugins and a theme we have not done any extra customisations to the functions.php.
So if i delete the buddypress plugin and the other plugins and the theme, I would get a quite clean start right?
If I do so. Is there any special steps I need to take on when installing buddypress and other plugins again to make sure the users info shos up again or does that automatically happen?
Regards
When you uninstall BuddyPress it does not delete the databases so reinstalling would not lose any data. However I don’t think that would help you very much if at all. Your issue will be with other plugins/customisations that have been added and these would not be removed just by reinstalling BuddyPress.
For a BuddyPress site there’s a few areas where a site can be customised:
By installing other plugins ( easily deactivated to remove those features)
By adding customised theme files in a child theme, in particular:
themes/child-theme/functions.php
themes/child-theme/buddypress/... – BuddyPress specific theme files that have been modified.
By adding a plugins/bp-custom.php file.
Any extra customisations in the functions.php file would have to be removed and the file re-saved to the child theme directory.
Files in the child-theme/buddypress directory structure can be isolated simply by changing their extension from php to old.
The bp-custom.php file can be isolated by changing it’s extension to .old
Anything in your child-theme directory would be ignored if you installed a new theme.
The rest is down to the configuration of the theme, BuddyPress and any other plugins you wish to use.
Hey forum.
I have some questions. I have a community site with about 600 users. As I have let another guy run the site over time its all messed up with the design, plugins, etc etc. And now it seems like to big of a job to revert everything step by step. I got lost.
So I am thinking about deleting everything and build an new interface, new buddypress install, theme etc. BUT, how do I make sure that users, their profile info, forum posts etc not get deleted. I am not fluent in how databases work, what is stored where etc?
Could any of you Buddypress troopers give me some advice to the steps needed to be taken and waht to be mindful of? Link to any resources etc.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
Terjemk
Another option that PERHAPS MIGHT work
Have a separate home page for any group you want
Try making a page template called “front-slug-group-name.php” for each group (for which a unique home page is desired)
(“group-name” being the lowercase name of the group)
and put it in wp-content/themes/your-theme/buddypress/groups/single/
as in
wp-content/themes/your-theme/buddypress/groups/single/front-slug-group-name.php
Hello,
I’m using Buddypress latest version, with a child theme.
I would like to enable a specific WordPress role I’ve created (“Gamer”) to be able to edit the BP Profile of all users. How can it be done ?
Cheers,
Denis
@mytubepress …Unfortunately that plugin does not show under Appearance Menus….
@venutius The Registration is visible when I log in so is the log out menu….there is a PHP/link option where I can add PHP code and link in the MenuBar Plugin….but when I copied the code that I already have in place in my function theme file it crashes my site….does any one have a fix for this to hide the Registration menu and login menu …WHEN LOGGED IN
Thanks
Naomi

Not on the Buddypress activity stream.
Could you please write a post via editor on the WordPress?
I mean on the post thread, not the Buddypress activity stream. 🙂
I’m testing on Twenty sixteen theme+Buddypress plugin only.
I was told by the developer of my theme that the default BP activity comment is displayed as:
I would love for it to show who the comment is for. Example:
Anyone have the solution to this, or maybe how to hide the activity comments altogether? I tried the plugin to filter activity but Activity Comments wasn’t an option to hide. I’m using BuddyBoss with Social Learner. I’m not looking for a plugin, but where in the BP file structure this will be? Thanks!
