okay got it, you can add following codes inside
bp-custom.php or child theme functions.php to override
add_filter('bp_email_use_wp_mail', '__return_true');
@mrjanvier on your staging site, try to debug with 2017 theme and deactivate other plugins except BuddyPress to isolate the issue.
@farmrchrys2013 Try to debug 2017 theme once, might be theme have some custom codes
it might be possible, the theme has inbuilt support for legacy template files and that’s why not working well with nouveau.
Hi there,
Have you enabled extended profiles in Settings/BuddyPress?
If yes, deactivate the other plugins and see if that works?
Also, try using a default theme such as 2017.
Dear,
I would like to ask help for my buddypress plugin. In the past when i click on compose message, i could type a name and press shift + enter to add more persons. Now I can’t. It opens a new window with exact same imagescreen. When i try that now, it create a new window with message not send. I changed the theme and experienced exact the same problem.
could anyone help with this?
Big Thanxs

Hi, wonder if you can help me with the following queries/problems?
I have installed Buddy press alongside WPadverts to create a classified site with social networking capabilities. I’m not very clued up with coding, or editing files/themes so please speak in laymans terms…thanks!
1) The cover photo blows up to a huge size, showing a tiny portion of the photo. Even when uploading on a phone.
2) There is no “create group” button on the groups page.
Please help!
Perhaps it is your theme ?
Try switching momentarily to a WP theme like 2017.
Are you sure that you have not granted edit privileges to subscribers ?
Use a plugin like this to find out:
User Role Editor
Sorry, me again. I’ve been trying to figure this out all day and I just can’t fix it.
I’ve tried deactivating all plugins, uninstalling and reinstalling buddypress and I’ve also disabled the site’s avada theme and switched to 2019, but the issue persists.
I’ve noticed that the activity page has also stopped working and is now blank.
Before this error the registration page had a field for display name which is now missing, yet the profile details header remains. Here’s a screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/kwdznzvx67oyrao/Screenshot%202019-02-02%2016.14.29.png?dl=0
Or the page itself is here: http://gym.juliabuckleyfitness.com/register/
Hope someone can help 🙂
It’s possible to overload the members-loop.php file for your BP theme and remove that element.
I explain it here – https://buddypress.org/support/topic/member-directory/
Ok, then the next step is to go through the standard debugging steps by deactivating all other plugins apart from BuddyPress and see if registration works then, if it’s still the same try switching to the 2017 theme and test again.
Ah, that’s not the right way to do it, by doing that next time BuddyPress get’s updated your customisations will be over-written. The official way f doing it is to overload it by copying the file to the child theme directory and then editing it.
What you can do is download a fresh copy of BuddyPress and retrieve the original file.
Also see https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/a-quick-look-at-1-7-theme-compatibility/
Did you put the edited file in you child-theme? themes/childtheme/buddypress/members/register.php?
If so you can simply rename this to something like register.old and the default register.phph will be picked up.
Hi, thanks for the reply.
Are there default settings in wordpress itself that controls caching? I have not found any active plugins that I have downloaded that have cache settings.
I just did a full backup of my site to test the theme. 78k files later, its finally done. Now I feel more comfortable diving in it further
First, turn off any caching system or plugin after emptying the cache.
If the issues persists…
…I’m worried about switching themes to test that.
You need to eliminate your theme as the issue. Back up everything, including your database, and then switch to a WP theme like 2017 and test.
I have a major issue with something causing a login error. I have racked my brain trying to trouble shoot this but I am new to a lot of this/rusty.
I have the latest editions of BP, WP and bimber.
The error does not show an error code.
When logging in on a test account. 6 accounts to be exact.. I have to login several times to show I’m logged in. Once logged in, certain actions show I’m not logged in anymore. At that time I go to log in on a second account and it’s says account a is still logged in.
I am pulling my hair out trying to fix this. I do not have a child theme set up. All customization has been done in main theme so I’m worried about switching themes to test that. I have disabled plugins and none seem to fix the issue. Please help.
Desperately waiting

FYI the solution for me was deactivating the rtMedia plugin.
I had previously tried these extra troubleshooting steps which may help you if you don’t have rtMedia installed.
• Switched to Nouveau BP theme, no help.
• Search Engine Visibility should stay unchecked. See your-site/wp-admin/options-reading.php
• Allow people to post comments on new articles: should be checked (These settings may be overridden for individual articles.) -> could be set to of by default on some themes. Posts directory > Choose Post > Quick edit > Allow comments. See your-site/wp-admin/options-discussion.php
• Site Tracking should be checked. BP Settings > components
• Blog & Forum Comments should be checked. BP Settings > settings
I am having the same issue that just started recently. Our site is still in development so only Beta testing comments.
NOTE: When I first add a comment it ‘nests’ and looks fine in the comment hierarchy also showing ‘Comments (1)’. When I refresh the page the comment is moved to the top of the activity feed and becomes it’s own post. The original post commented on shows ‘Comments (0).
I’ve been looking all around the BP support topics and tried the following troubleshooting:
• Activated a separate theme clean theme (Twenty Sixteen), same issue.
• Deactivated JetPack which had caused issues with BP previously, same issue.
• Checked Settings > Discussion > Enable threaded (nested) comments, deactivate and reactivated.
• Found these two discussions but wasn’t able to fix. https://buddypress.org/support/topic/improve-comments-in-activity-stream/ & Try database reset? https://buddypress.org/support/topic/replies-disappear-when-i-try-to-reply-on-activity-stream-page/page/2/#post-95758
• There is reference that this may be a corrupt database but not sure how to even start testing or resolving that.
Thank all for any help!
Yes that’s do-able, it involes over-riding one of the BuddyPress template files.
First you need to know which BP Template you are using by looking in Settings/BuddyPress/Options and check the template setting, it will either be Legacy or Nouveau.
You also need to have a child theme do you have one set up?
Depending on the BP theme, you would create a directory in wp-content/themes/child-theme/buddypress/members
Then you would copy wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy or bp-nouveau/buddypress/members/members-loop.php over to this directory.
From there you can edit the members-loop.php file and replace the unwanted items with items you could like.
That’s the general idea.
To test it the issue is in your theme, try switching momentarily to a WP theme like 2017.
Do you have any plugins or custom code that affects activity ?
If so, try turning them off.
Do you have any plugins or custom code that minifies javascript?
If so, try turning them off.
iow. I cannot duplicate your issue. So I suggest ways you can narrow down the cause.
I was able to fix the “Add friend” button by switching to the legacy theme. Any idea why?
I have not been able to fix users having to login sometimes 10-12 times before the site logs them in.
Site is: ScottMaplesOfficial.Com if anyone wants to replicate the issue
Thank you in advance
I am using buddypress and the Nouveau template.
Problem 1)
The add friend button displays fine when user isn’t logged in. Once logged in, it goes away and users cannot add each other.
Problem 2)
Users are having to try to login several times sometimes in order to log in. Any ideas?
I am using the Bimber theme and have checked as many settings as i know how to check. i am still new to a lot of this. Any help is appreciated
