@ldellc For edit activity, you can try https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-edit-activity/

@mckennapoole Please try to debug if your site can send emails?
You can use https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/ for verification. If that’s not working, you will need to use 3rd party services to send email, or consult with hosting support.

I think you should checkout this tutorial about pagination WordPress. I have implemented the steps mentioned in the tutorial working properly.

Hello,

1.I used theme ” Travel log”.But it has same problem when I changed other theme for example like wordpress Twenty Sixteen theme.Do you have solution?

2. That’s the feature of rtMedia, maybe need to close this feature from rtMedia and it is need to updated. But it is a good feature.

@abu117 It should be the default functionality unless you have used some 3rd party plugin to disable it, when someone is registering at WordPress or BuddyPress, it will send an email to activate or verify their emails.

@bluevert You will need to override the template files inside the child theme.
Follow the steps mentioned here

Template Hierarchy

Most of the time BP will use page.php since that template file exists in the majority of WordPress themes. However, if you wanted to style BuddyPress pages differently than a regular WordPress page, you could add a template file named buddypress.php to your theme’s directory and BP would use that template instead since that file is ahead of page.php in the hierarchy above.

After creating buddypress.php inside child theme, you can comment this line

do_action( 'travel_log_sidebar' );

it will remove sidebar from all BuddyPress pages, if you need to keep on some BP pages, you can use conditional logic.

You can try https://premium.wpmudev.org/project/wordpress-user-synchronization/

It really depends what features you want for your site. WordPress already allows people to register and login to your site, BP just adds additional features such as extended profiles, friendships, groups, activity, forums etc.

To change the name of tabs etc you need to look into setting up a custom translation file. All the visible labels are able to be translated, so you can change them how you like.

You can use poedit to create your translation file and WPT Custom Mo File to install the translation onto your site.

@mrditt

SendGrid is the way to go. Their official WP plugin has a wrapper that plays nice with BP’s wp_mail API. It is the only service at the moment.

BuddyPress uses the WordPress user database, so I think this is more of a general WordPress issue than one specific to BuddyPress in that if you removed BuddyPress and allowed user registrations to WordPress you would still be faced with the same issue.

You could raise this as a bug on BuddyPress Trac. but I think it’s probably WordPress that would need to change.

@gheebuttersnaps Seems it need some enhancement, you can report it here https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/report

Hi @peacefulparent
There was a discussion about charset upgrade earlier, but the ticket was closed due to inactivity.

@eduguerrero You can check https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp2wp-full-sync/ and link user bio with xprofile field

For example: https://wordpress.org/plugins/ag-custom-admin/

Yep that’s the WordPress Admin Bar. The only BP setting that affects this is that you can hide the entire bar for non logged in users via Settings>>BuddyPress>>Options.

As I said there’s a lot of plugins that will help you style this bar, just search WP Plugins for admin bar and you will find them.

Do you mean the WordPress Admin Bar? There’s a load of plugins that will help you customise that, including the logo. Unless you mean something else?

@mrditt I think, the plugin does not have any linkup with WordPress to save or display any data. They display details from their server using an iframe.

@elagoon WP SMTP is not updated from last 4 year, try a different plugin like https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-wp-smtp/
They have inbuilt option to change from email address, you can set it without any additional codes

@erictracz BuddyPress will also be ready with GDPR compliance in coming updates.
There is an ongoing discussion about it.
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7698

For 3rd party plugin concern, Site owners are ultimately responsible for the all the plugins they are using at their site, and they also have to understand the functionality of each plugin including their data collection and storage methods before using them.

Regarding 3rd party BuddyPress developers, after BuddyPress GDPR compliance release they can update their plugins to hook all user specific data at BuddyPress option which allow users to delete themselves.

@hdcms You can create a profile fields with terms & condition or take a look at https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-terms-and-conditions-for-buddypress/ plugin.
