BuddyPress.org

Hi there, another plugin to help you is https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-restrict-group-creation/ this will allow you to restrict members from creating more than one group.

If I updated this to include a restriction based on the number of group membership then that would help.

Looking at the code you’d also need to restrict the group join button showing so that it only shows for members not already in a group. How you do this depends on the BP Theme you are using, Legacy or Nouveau.

Hi there, here’s the steps I would take:

Deactivate all other plugins.
Switch to 2017 theme and test
Check for changes to functions.php, wp-config.php, bp-custom.php ( if you have one ) basically any place where custom scripts could be hiding.
Try recreating your emails in the Tools>>BuddyPress admin page.
If they still don’t work
Enable WP-DEBUG, install Query Monitor plus an error log viewer. initiate some emails and see if you get any errors at the same time.

All I can suggest is that you are not copying the functions.php file into the right theme directory, not likely but that could cause the new function not to be seen.

Hi there, I’m sorry but this would seem to be a theme issue ( the theme is adding the menu? ), you should raise this with BuddyBoss.

I’ve looked at the code and it turns out there’s a typo in buddypress/bp-members/classes/class-bp-members-admin.php as follows:

Line 1277:

if ( current_user_can( 'edit_user', $user->ID ) || bp_current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' ) ) {

One thing to try is to change this on your copy as follows:

if ( current_user_can( 'edit_users', $user->ID ) || bp_current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' ) ) {

You can also see that the other check is for bp_moderate so maybe my code earlier was wrong? though tbh bp_moderate give a whole bunch of additional features that you probably don’t want to expose to your editors. This is the example code from wp.org:

function add_theme_caps() {
    // gets the author role
    $role = get_role( 'author' );

    // This only works, because it accesses the class instance.
    // would allow the author to edit others' posts for current theme only
    $role->add_cap( 'edit_others_posts' ); 
}
add_action( 'admin_init', 'add_theme_caps');

Which bp Theme are you using?

Underscores is generally a theme thing, so the first thing I’d do would be to switch to a default theme such as 2017 and see if that fixed the problem, failing that I’d be looking for plugin conflicts.

Mind if you’ve got template overloads in place or a theme that’s doing it, you’ll get that effect.

That’s a bit odd, to my knowledge both themes use the same images. You probably need to turn your error reporting on, if you haven’t already?

The BP active member count is stored in transient memory and the count you see displayed is reading this transient. When you run the tool to correct the count this transient is deleted then next time you go to read the value it detects there is no count so it does a db count of all active users and resets the transient. So the Tools option suggested by Shanebp should have worked. It not working suggested there is potentially something up with your database.

The only other thing that affects the active user count is the excluded user id’s, these are the inactive and deleted users.

As a next step I suggest you try switching to the BP Legacy theme and see if that works. I don’t think it will but it would help rule out a nouveau specific function involved in displaying the count.

Hi there, it looks like you are using the BP Nouveau theme, can you confirm?

Hi @irahulsolanki I just tested this again with the BP Legacy theme and I got the same results as you. could you raise a support ticket for this?

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/

I’m not really sure what to suggest. BP in it’s raw environment does not do this, if you have no other plugins loaded and a default theme then it should work correctly.

Here’s how to remove forums from all users profile tabs and toolbar menu, this code would need to go in your child-themes functions.php:

function venutius_remove_forums_on_usermenu() {
global $wp_admin_bar;

	if ( bp_use_wp_admin_bar() ) {
		$wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'my-account-forums' );
	}

}
add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'venutius_remove_forums_on_usermenu' );

function venutius_remove_profile_forums_tab() {

	bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'forums' );

}
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'venutius_remove_profile_forums_tab' );

By default, BP does not show the creation date.
So, afaik, it’s coming from your theme or some other plugin.
You will have find it yourself.

Then you’d need to overload your child-themes template file for the homepage, but getting the activity on there would need quite a bit of coding.

BP was designed to be customised with plugins, it’s not unusual for a BP site to have several tens of plugins and maybe more.
