BuddyPress.org

Is BuddyPress network-activated or not?

If not, this bug exists if BuddyPress is only activated on one site instead of network-wide:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7472

If you are able to, try adding this fix to bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-admin.php:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/11520

If you don’t want to modify the lines manually, you can replace the file with this:

Hi, I didn’t have a chance to get back to this, but I remember seeing something on the WP codex about how to add columns to admin screens… if custom code is required then I’d probably do a custom solution rather than use Admin Columns.. so I could then give it back to the community… .. this should be core rather than depending on 3rd party paid component.

I mean in the same way that WordPress shows Posts column linking to Posts in the User screen /wp-admin/users.php I would expect that for sites which are mainly using bbPress and BuddyPress that the equivalent columns Forum posts, Activities, Group membership should be of interest to all..

If you have got anything that will help, please post it!

For example i have the exact same contact form as the register page on the site so if i submit the form post data to site.com/register will it register?

The registration URL is whatever you have set in the WP “Pages” menu. Look for the “Register” page to double-check, but the default is site.com/register.

Did you try POSTing to site.com/register URL? If so, what happens?

Basically how would i register a user from outside the site in code

You can just use wp_insert_user() if you need to register a user into WordPress.

If you want to use BP’s signup function, use bp_core_signup_user().

If you install https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpfront-user-role-editor/ you will find that you have the option to display menu items to logged in users only.

I think this is caused because we attempted to fix the upload button issue with the Microsoft Edge browser, but it affected mobile browsers as a result.

To keep track of this bug, see:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7416

I believe remove_accents(), via sanitize_user(), is converting those characters to ASCII. You could open a ticket for this on Trac?

Thank you, thank you 🙂 I have tried so many ways to point dynamically to a user’s profile in a url for custom links. I am very new to wordpress and buddypress.

wp_trim_words() can do that. See this article

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_trim_words

wp_add_inline_style() is likely used to add the inline styling. Try searching for instances of that in Twenty Fifteen.

Ref https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_add_inline_style

There is nothing like that, and to be honest, it wouldn’t be a great idea to send an email to each profile visitor. How could you be sure that the visitor is a site member and not a robot ? And what will happen if a profile is visited 500 times by a same visitor ? Do you send 500 mails to the profile owner ? In brief, it is not simple to handle. And imho, it is not here that you will get the best answer for such a complicated tool…

That said you have a few plugins who make similar things:

When you set up BuddyPress, you have the option to map BuddyPress components to WordPress pages:

Configure BuddyPress

So basically, if you mapped the Members Directory page to example.com/members, you can go to your WordPress Pages menu in the admin dashboard, find your Members Directory page and rename the slug from members to whatever you wanted like people.

> Can i call a complete bubbypress page on to a new page ?

Short answer is no.

You can however, change the slug of a BuddyPress page via the WP admin’s “Pages” menu. If you can change the location of the slug, this should satisfy most use-cases.

> with php maybe? or create a shortcode?

Yes, anything is possible with code! It depends what you want to show though.

There are some plugins out there that show BP content via shortcodes. One of them is this one:

Bowe Codes

It’s responsive for WordPress default themes like one of the Twenty themes.

@hnla – Perhaps we should extend responsive support for the registration screen to bp-legacy / bp-nouveau directly instead. I know breakpoints will be an issue, but we could probably settle on a width.

The log-in page is a WordPress page. There is a guide on how to customize it:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Login_Form

The registration page is created by BuddyPress and can be modified in many ways. You’ll need to understand theme compatibility and overriding templates:

Theme Compatibility & Template Files

So you could create your own copy of buddypress/members/register.php in your theme to make big changes, or potentially hook into the action bp_before_register_page to just add some html to top of the BP page.

Best of luck.

I believe that there are conflicts between BP and Paid Memberships Pro. If you activate BP and deactivate Paid Memberships, does the page load?

What does your debug log say? https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress

Hi,

BuddyPress pages are not ordinary WordPress pages. These pages should be blank, without any template assigned. BP pages exist only for internal purpose and to have their own slug (and the benefit of permalinks). The content is always dynamic and change depending the context.

That is also the reason why you shouldn’t use a “page builder” for them untill you’re very comfortable with code and design.

If you need a full width output or a sidebar, you adjust that in your theme settings or preferences. You can easely do that with WP’s Customizer. Or course reading your theme documentation can also help.

If it is not possible that way, i recommand you use a child-theme, and add him any necessary part you’re actually missing. But ensure first that these parts are really missing !

BuddyPress comes with a few CSS rules who normally fit with any correctly coded theme. This means that it actually can be used with almost any existing theme.
BuddyPress has no sidebar
BuddyPress can be viewed on any existing device
BuddyPress fit to any screen size
This means that you have to adjust your theme first, and not BP.

For more details, read from Codex

BuddyPress Theme Development

Hi,

open your buddypress-nk_NO.po file with a text editor (notepad++ or so) and check you have a plural form for the untranslated string.

The’re several strings containing “members” with a count, but it will be easy to find if you search for “msgid_plural”.
At least, you should find something constructed like this:

#: bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/groups/invites.php:34
msgctxt "Group member count"
msgid "%d member"
msgid_plural "%d members"
msgstr[0] "%d medlem"
msgstr[1] "%d medlemmer"

Again, note that it is only an example, you may find other strings containing “medlem” that you have eventually to adjust.

The important thing to control is the existence of “%d” and naturally, the presence of the plural form string in the translation.

If you still have trouble after controling/repairing/modifying, it could be possible that it is your theme. To ensure, do the same check in your theme translation.

Other thing to take in account

I’m not 100% sure, but so far i remember, the norvegian buddypress version is not completely translated.
Unfortunately, translate.wordpress.org is actually down and it is impossible to access the plugins translations at this time…

What i expect is that you have an old po file, fully translated, but perhaps not with the most recent changes and updates, which could explain that even if you have plural forms in your translation, they won’t show up in some places.
For ex. because the plural code changed from %s (in your version) to %d or something like that.
To avoid this, you can download the most recent pot file and rename it to buddypress-nk_NO.po.
Then you rename YOUR current version to .pot(with a T), import it to the new file, and adjust or complete the missing strings.

Is WordPress or the plugin sending the email?

Hi @snookerist

Can you report this issue on Trac?

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

A 403 response usually indicates the resource you requested is forbidden. Something like this could happen for various reasons. The first place to start is your .htaccess file; check there’s nothing crazy going on inside that. A basic WP .htaccess file with no customisation should look like this:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

Ref: https://codex.wordpress.org/htaccess

Have you tried with another theme, like Twenty Fifteen ?
You wwill have more chance if you ask on the mediapress support.

Copy the whole content of that example file into bp-custom.php.

You can also transform it into a mu-plugin by just adding it some header information.

Once done, you can test the tabs and try to understand how they work. And then apply your own preference.

Hi,
just in case you want some other options, consider these plugins.

A premium one and a free one (wasn’t updated for a while but is probably still working).

Happy testing!
