    Chat – BP Better Mesage :replaces the standard message system BuddyPress supports attachments (video including) and smilies, you can also conduct group discussions

    groups, extended profiles, news areas, activity feeds – this is a full-time functional BuddyPress

    polls – bbPress + GD Topic Polls, WP Easy Poll PRO also allows users to create polls

    for photos and albums (in addition to the voiced options), you can also try BuddyDrive

    but in general, you can see a list of plugins in my profile – there are a lot of things for BuddyPress (not all work correctly, but most of it is used on the sites I follow)

    Whenever a new user registers for my site, wordpress asks them for an email. Is there a way to circumvent this? I used buddypress back in 13-14 so I don’t remember if there was a specific feature I used to avoid this. I essentially want my users to be able to use the entire site from the front end and avoid any use of wordpress.

    Thanks @venutius.

    I’m actually using Paid Memberships Pro plugin for my memberships management and they just recently released a BP integration which takes care of the xprofile fields plugin problem as I was told by one of their tech support. It is better installed when you just create your site as they still have to create syncing issues between their fields and regular old xprofile fields for older members – currently this syncing is not available but will be. So as a result I will have to manually move the data over from the members prior to using their integration (about 200 people but it’s doable) . I’m waiting for the code to be installed on my site by their tech support to do this.

    But if anyone is interested, they should check out PMPro for managing bp or other memberships, it really is great and it’s always supported. I am using the Pro version which is expensive per year however you get great tech support and they will go into your site to modify things and help you install various add ons and integrations. This BP integration plugin is available in free version too I believe. If you have a serious memberships site where you do or intent do make money, it’s worth to pay for the yearly fee though for support and access to more add ons.

    I’ve tried other membership plugins and just wasn’t working for me.

    Hopefully the old xprofile fields plugin can be cloned by someone for those who are not going to use PMpro. It’s odd that there are not many options for this plugin and it’s not supported as it’s very essential.

    Here’s PMPro info:

    Paid Memberships Pro

    The integration plugin below, you need the above memberships plugin installed though:

    Hi there,

    I have a plugin called BP Profile Shortcodes Extra. I’ve added a shortcode to provide you with a configurable Private Message link [bpps_profile_private_message_link] you can use the user_id=”” setting to determine a specific user to private message. Let me know what you think.

    When I install Buddypress, which I used in the past and I adore this plugin btw, I try with my new site to select the options ‘Friend Connections’, ‘Private Messaging’, ‘User Groups’ and ‘Site Tracking’ and activate them. It will save and when the page reloads it shows none of these features ever being activated.

    I am currently on chat support with WordPress for the last two hours and they have no idea what is causing this. I tried uninstalling reinstalling, installing the beta version, changing themes, removing any possible conflicting plugins, and selecting them one at a time, I even had every other admin and the site owner try to get it to work for them and it still hasn’t worked.

    What could be going on that is causing this issue? We have the business plan with WordPress so I’m not sure on the server being an issue as I didn’t use WordPress for my server in the past.

    Hi Glenn,

    I’ve never tried Peepso or Social Engine, so I@m not speaking from a point of balance. I have tried other dedicated hosted platforms such as Ning though so I do have some wider experience.

    I think your issues can be boiled down into two areas: Maintenance, and features.

    Any WordPress site, any site for that matter is going to require maintenance the main question is who does that maintenance, how well is it done and how quickly new issues can be resolved.

    With a WordPress/BuddyPress installation I’d say that the level of maintenance that you yourself have to do (or pay for) is going to be higher than with peepso. Much depends on what features your add to the basic installation, in my experience in general WP and BP updates are solid and cause few issues, it’s usually the other plugins that can cause issues (prime eample recently was a SiteOrigin Page Builder update that wrecked my front page and they did not fix it for several months).

    My expectation with Peepso is that what you sacrifice in the way of variety of options available to you I’d hope that in return the options you do get will be reasonably well integrated with each other and less likely to cause conflicts resulting in feature or site loss that you would need to take a hand in resolving. The downside is if you find there are specific feature you need, or issues that are not getting resolved, you have few alternatives to go to, you may find yourself stuck.

    I once had a paid hosted site costing $50 per month which pretty much ground to halt and the provider refused to see the problem. It made me feel pretty helpless and it was the reason I moved to BuddyPress – I figured the money I saved on hosting I could use to fund feature additions to the basic BP setup.

    Anyway getting back to the point, so I reckon peepso will be less maintenance but with less features, and this brings me on to the second point – features.

    I think it would probably be a good idea to map out exactly which features you want in quite some detail and see how that drives your thoughts. For example you say you want video, would this be you hosting the video files or libraries of YouTube style embeds? Would you need group galleries, user galleries, sitewide gallery etc?

    Here’s what I tend to use:

    Chat – IfyChat – free version limited to 10 concurrent users but an excellent chat engine
    Video/photos/audio – Either MediaPress or rtMedia, rtMedia is more stylish but add-ons are quite expensive.
    Groups/xprofiles, activity, friends – BuddyPress.
    News areas – probably more general workpress based solutions for this, are you thinking RSS feeds from other sites or internal news (could be done with a simple News category?).
    Polls – never really looked at polls, I note there is this – https://themekraft.com/new-plugin-buddypress-polls/ for starters, looks interesting but I’ve not tried it.

    Regarding supporting mobile, BP is coming out with a new theme – BP Nouveau, this has options for vertical menus which I think will be a lot more mobile friendly.

    The bulk of being mobile friendly comes down to the theme you are using and whilst most are responsive these days I personally find that having a mobile responsive theme is not good enough for phones, what I do is run a second mobile specific theme and use a theme switcher to detect and switch themes.

    Another point to bear in mind with BP is that there are a great many plugins that help you choose how your site is going to work, there’s a range of plugins that change the may notifications and email subscriptions work. This is a benefit of BP, but it does also increase the plugin count.

    Thanks so much for your reply.

    I tried the plug-in and nothing changed for me. I was hoping it was as simple as placing a bit of code into the bp functions file. All I am looking to do is add a notification to the buddypress activity stream when a wordpress post is liked. An activity is created but it only appears under the user’s favorites tab.

    Thanks again for your help!

    @michaellanfield all forums created by groups are also parent forums. That’s why default will list them. You can create your own set of forums with a specific category and display them at Forum index with shortcodes.

    Individual forums in not displaying at your site, it might be theme specific issue, you can cross test with default WordPress theme.

    WordPress 4.9.5 -> BuddyPress 2.9.4

    Hi all,
    This is when viewing a user’s profile page. I removed the Friends tab with the below code but the View tab is still showing (it’s not necessary since the Profile tab is there and points to the same place, the user’s profile page). Is there a list somewhere of the slugs for the tabs or is there a function that can generate that? Or am I completely off about this 🙂
    Thanks in advance.

    function remove_nav_items() {
    if ( !bp_is_my_profile() && !is_super_admin()) {
    bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'friends' );
    bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'view' );
    }
    }
    add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'remove_nav_items',301);

    Hey there,
    I have an issue with buddypress on my WordPress site. I have installed the latest stable version of buddypress and registered the members component with the respective page.

    Whenever a user who is not administrator tries to access the members page, a 404 is shown. The same applies to everything beneath this page, such as editing profile. For administrators , everything is fine. I have tried to track the problem down. I have flushed the permalinks, disabled all plugins. When I switched to the default theme, everything works fine as expected. So, I suspect the issue has to be with my theme, enfold.

    I fiddled with the capabilites and found that if I add the “edit others pages” capability to a user he is able to access the members page. But this has undesired consequences such as the ability to create drafts for pages and accessing the theme options (why in the world?).

    Anyway as this is most likely a theme specific problem, I would like to ask if there are any experiences with such a matter or hints what I could look out for.

    Thanks!

    What am I looking for? I want my “Recent Posts” and “Recent Replies” to only include posts under a specific parent forum category, but I can’t (for the life of me) figure out how to implement such a filter.

    Why? Our community has a top-level forum dedicated to “Welcome, John McNewuser!” posts. It’s a good forum that serves a purpose, but replies in that forum add noise to the “recent” feeds, where participants are looking for the more relevant conversations going on in the main forums under a separate top-level parent forum category.

    Versions?

    WordPress:                             4.9.5
    BuddyPress:                            2.9.4
    bbPress:                               2.5.14
    bbPress Advanced Recent Topics Widget: 0.9

    @everaertlawyers Friendship component is not required for groups; you can use https://wordpress.org/plugins/invite-anyone/ it will allow inviting any member of your site.
    Members will display at member directory page after their first login.

    @markleeuw user is getting logout after password change that’s why you are getting 404 error page. Try to debug with the default WordPress theme and only BuddyPress plugin, might be some plugin is creating conflict.

    I am running WordPress 4.9.5 with the Sweetdate Theme. Buddpypress 2.9.4 http://housing.digitalelegance.com/members/

    I am trying to get a few of the profile fields to show up under the member name on the members page. I tried to edit the member-loop.php and nothing was showing up. At the moment I have hidden the following areas through CSS

    .search-item .date {display:none;}
    .search-item .search-body{display:none;}

    I need some real world help in displaying these fields. Any other information you may need, just ask. Thank you

    Hi Glenn, welcome aboard.

    I’m pretty new to BuddyPress myself, at least on the in-depth side of things but I’ve been a user for a few years now. Just recently started writing plugins. I know what you mean regarding integration, I guess that’s what you get with a private system, less features but better integrated.

    I’ve just created a plugin that I hope will take a step in the right direction integration wise. It’s called BP Post Status and it integrates WordPress posts with BP, allowing posts to be shared in groups and to friends. It’s also got a neat group homepage feature. If you intend to give your members the ability to blog it’s worth taking a look at. Still got a few teething problems though, nothing major, just my lack of experience shining through 🙂
