BuddyPress.org

It looks like there is a bug where the activation email post is not created for new installs using single-site.

I’ve reported the bug here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7869

The fix can be found here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/7869/7869.01.patch

Once you’ve added the fix, go to “Tools > BuddyPress” in the admin dashboard and select “Reinstall emails”. This should add the missing activation email post.

Hi,

I was having the same issue, It turns out, the LINK that is sent in the email IS the activation key.

The text for the activation link shows https://mysite.com/register/yxyxyxyxyxyxyxyx/

the actual hyperlink is https://eur29.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmysite%2Factivate%2FTupSrVxRicmnKIEsQiuIlovErbwriTzJ%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C201b5e1d1dd54668ac5708d5c15eb009%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636627534774115404&sdata=qtu4TSSlCTvw7dSb7rmJoJkqkbp672R9ccFUuPuDA9M%3D&reserved=0

So I believe when the user lands at the activation page, the activation link is supposed to be auto populated. maybe there is a script or a listener on the page waiting for the activation link.

I think maybe due to the spam protector, the hyperlink is encrypted or screwed up, which keeps the “activation page” from listening for the key (which it would normally auto-populate)

I dont know if this is just an outlook issue, i haven’t tested it anyfurther. nor do i know if its an email server issue.

This first test user, the activation link was sent from a wordpress generated email (not tied to smtp or anything) i had to dig the email out of my spam.

so i’ll register the bbpress with an actual smtp email, and send to a gmail, and a yahoo..
and see if it auto populates the activation key field.

long story short, the activation link is in the url of the email link (with exception for mysite.com/register/)

hello,
solution 1: the HTML Apostrophe
as opposed to without a doubt typing the apostrophe, you can use the HTML code: ‘. So, in place of typing “Matt’s weblog” you would type “Matt ‘s blog” within the problem area.

One trouble you could run into with that is that it could handiest paintings on the first store. if you store the setting, widget, etc. a 2d time, you may get the backslash again. If the hassle is in an area you may most effective update once, this may not be a problem. in case you replace it regularly, as opposed to getting into the HTML code time after time you will want to try a greater everlasting solution:

solution 2: The HTML ‘clever’ Apostrophe
A workaround so as to carry out the identical function as the solution above is rather, to use a “clever” or “curling” apostrophe. WordPress does not see this individual as a “actual” apostrophe and could no longer robotically “reclaim” it whilst the setting is stored like it would within the first solution.

The only trouble you could run into is if the font set that you are the usage of for this location is a non-preferred font, it is able to no longer be rendered. as an instance, the font in the photograph at the right does not render capitals, nor even the “regular” apostrophe, so if this is the case for you, you may want to pick a extraordinary font for the location that is not rendering well.

I did a quick test and Invite Anyone works with a WordPress default theme. Sounds like a problem with your theme, but I’m not sure how BuddyPress 3.0 would break that change.

@eric01 – Can you try the following fix?
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/7860/7860.01.patch

@vegebond BuddyPress is free and it does not have any pro version.
You can use https://wordpress.org/plugins/invite-anyone/ for your workflow

@zaheedmanuel try to replicate it with Default WordPress theme, it seems Kleo specific issue you will need to contact the theme authors.

@cyberjulie you can download the previous version at https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/buddypress.2.9.4.zip

@abracarambar patch is working fine, you only need to modify
Line 395 inside plugins/buddypress/bp-groups/bp-groups-activity.php

( ! groups_is_user_member( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $group_id ) || ! groups_is_user_banned( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $group_id ) )
with
( ! groups_is_user_member( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $group_id ) || groups_is_user_banned( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $group_id ) )

The Kleo theme needs to update the activate.php template.

Please let the Kleo authors know about this change:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/11766/trunk/src/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/activate.php

If Kleo is based on an older bp-default theme, then this change might be more applicable:
https://github.com/buddypress/BP-Default/commit/baa3be909bb353e2a20a16a0e6da5219b4a73627

Thanks for the reports everyone.

The following patch should fix this problem:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/7854/7854.01.patch

All you need to do is to change one line in the bp-groups\bp-groups-activity.php file.

This will be apart of v3.1.0 when it is released after other bugs are fixed.

I’ve just raised a ticket about not being able to comment on activity items in the group activity page: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7854#ticket

IF you switch to BP Nouveau in settings>>BuddyPress>>Options you will get a BP Nouveau item in the customize options list.

I’ve raised a ticket for this: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7854#ticket

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-breaks-with-bp-3-0/

I’m thinking that BP actually does not provide the activation email, it’s a WordPress email, which would explain why it’s not counted in the BP email set. A handy tip when troubleshooting it is to deactivate BP and see if it’s getting sent, then you can isolate BP from the issue.

as I see there are problems in the last version with custom themes.

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function bp_is_user_forums() in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/themes/mytheme/buddypress/members/single/home.php:91 Stack trace: etc etc etc…

So line 91 I changed to
elseif ( class_exists('bbPress') && bp_is_user_forums() ) :

and its working fine now because bbpress is not installed, maybe is better including the new buddypress templates instead but I have edited it to bootstrap classes and IDs so this was a temporary solution for me.

Did you enable registration on your WordPress install?

Register and Activation Pages

Thanks for the report.

What theme are you using? If you are using a premium theme, can you try debugging by switching the theme temporarily to a WordPress default one like one of the Twenty themes (Twenty Seventeen, Twenty Sixteen, etc)?

@worksofweb – Thanks for the debug messages. It’s due to a plugin or some custom code that is force-enabling the legacy activity query and requesting the total activity count.

I’ve created a ticket with a fix here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7848

In the meantime, if you are using a plugin that is utilizing the 'bp_use_legacy_activity_query' filter, please deactivate it temporarily.

Hi, Sounds similar to what we are seeing, I believe there is a ticket open for this already..
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7845#ticket

Hopefully they’ll have it fixed soon

Hi Glenn,

(a) There are a number of plugins that allow you to customise the WordPress Login page. https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-login/

(b) No I don’t think so, this is indicating that Incognito is redirecting login.php to another page.

(c) There’s a number of plugins that will allow you to put the login form into a widget for example, you could use one of these to put the login form on any page you like. https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/login-widget/

2. Maybe you could try: https://wordpress.org/plugins/redirect-after-login/

3. There’s a number of BP privacy plugins, they tend to work in different ways so it’s really a case of checking out a few to see if they deliver what you need. I personally tend to use a modified version of BP Members Only. I modified it so that posts are not private.

If you get a whitescreen, you should turn on the debud display in WordPress, that will give you an indication of what the problem is:
