There’s a number of plugins that will allow you to remove the wp-admin top bar, just search the plugin directory.
Hide Admin Bar
There’s wordpress roles and also BuddyPress member types, two ways of differentiating users. With the latter you probably would need to do some coding to have them work the way you want.
Hello, I have a tough nut to crack. I’m hoping to create a website that combines a number of different common features. The website would be primarily for posting videos and images, as well as some articles/posts. So it would be mostly a big gallery. Well, there are plenty of gallery themes and plugins. But I also want to have a community with an optional subscription membership. Users would be able to comment on videos and images right alongside them. Comments from subscribers would float to the top. Users would also be able to “thumbs up” content, and the gallery would need the option to sort by rating. Because I want the ability to post articles too, the theme would need to allow for posts. Finally, I’d also love a forum for members. Is all of this even possible without lots of custom coding? If I were to find three or four themes or plugins that I like, could they be combined relatively easily? I have one WordPress website, so I’m familiar with WordPress, and I used to be pretty good at HTML and CSS, but I know squat about PHP. I really appreciate any advice. Thank you.
I have been using this plugin for a while and the process that happened when someone registered was they would get an activation email and when they clicked the link in the email it would take them back to my site activated and ready to go. Since the last update of both WP and Buddypress (did them on same day) instead of taking the user to the site already activated it is asking them for an activation key now. I’m not sure what happened or if there is a way I can change it back as my client wants it the old way.
Wordpress Version:4.9.6
Buddypress Version:3.0
Hello,
I would like to know how can we remove the wordpress bar, I don’t want it displayed for the users and I don’t want the users to have access to the wp-admin which is actually the case.
And also actually the notifications are displayed on the wordpress bar and not on the notifications buddypress link in the menu, how can I change that.

Hello there,
I am running an installation using woffice theme. This theme has been recently updated to be compatible with new BP (there was some profile issue).
I am using wp 4.9.6 and wordpress is installed in a directory, at the root.
With this theme, I can create a group and attach a forum to it (bbpress plugin).
When I updated BP to 3.0, the forum stopped displaying, and the adminbar on top of page disppeared as weel on forum pages (but not on groups without forums). I also use BP group documents plugin, and the documents cannot display either.
I desactivated all plugins except those needed, that is to say : BP, Unyson (comes with the theme, cannot do without) and bbpress, but the issues are still there.
Any help would be very appreciated as I am at a loss to what to do to fix this !
Thanks
This is a v3.0 reported bug:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7845
There is a workaround fix listed in the ticket description.
Wordpress checks the file format of all uploads to make sure the file content matches the claims of the filename, and rejects files that don’t match.
I’m thinking WordPress would catch this in it’s MIME checks, have you tried it?
Thanks Ray,
I did find this link/plugin – not sure if it will work for me:
https://profilepress.net/downloads/wordpress-buddypress-extended-profile-sync/
But can you please comment on the other issue, the Alphabetic sort disappearing when Extended Profiles is disabled?
Thank you
@knowitallninja – There are a couple of other instances of groups_record_activity() that needs to be replaced.
See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/7870/7870.02.patch
Thanks for confirming and finding the bug. I’ve created a ticket here – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7870
BuddyPress currently doesn’t support the WordPress default bio fields for the Extended Profiles component.
There is a ticket that might add this functionality in a future version:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7162
This is an odd problem that I’ve seen referenced before, but no concrete solutions that work.
What happens, is if I have the Extended Profiles enabled, then the “Alphabetical” option in the “Order By” drop down of the Member Directory page, does not get displayed.
But as soon as I enable Extended Profiles, then I see the Alphabetical option in the drop-down.
The other quirk I have, is when I have the Extended Profiles enabled, I do not see WordPress’s “Biographical Info” field displayed, when I’m Viewing my Profile.
Yet if I have Extended Profiles disabled, then I see the Biographical Info displayed as “About Me” when viewing my Profile. And yet I also have no option to “Edit” my Profile, when Extended Profiles are off.
You see the issue, is my users have typed in basic bio/profile info in their Biographical Info field (I believe since one of the bbPress plugins easily enables that). And since they have spent time doing this, I want to display it in the Profiles and let them Edit it when using the BuddyPress Profile options. Unfortunately it is not displaying when Extended Profiles is enabled.
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,
When someone is registrered in my website by buddypress, the system send an email. That email contains one link where you can click and it sends you to a activation page. In this page, the website ask you an activation key, but in the email it doesn’t appear.
Someone can help me?
Thank you!

Buddypress Versión 3.0.0
WordPress 4.9.6
I use a shortcode for social login. [wordpress_social_login]. Alone it works, with the theme register form it works. When I set the page to be Buddypress registration page in settings, it disappears. It seems that nobody can register with their social login since the update(I have used that setup before and it worked). I am using eduma theme
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.

Notify the Invite Anyone author:

https://github.com/boonebgorges/invite-anyone
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.
@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 ) )
No worries! I fixed the issue.
This is what I did. I located the activate.php file in the theme files and then edited the lines using this link > https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/11766/trunk/src/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/activate.php
thanks everyone!! You make close this topic 🙂
