Am I the only one having this problem?!
Could you make one of your groups private and try to join it to see if you get the same problem, please?
I want to know if the problem is from BP or something in WordPress messing with BP.
Thanks in advance! 😉

Hi,
Sorry that no one has responded to your post.
If there are issues with the codebase (as is the case in this instance), you should post a report on our bug tracker, Trac:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket
You should be able to login with the same credentials you use here on wordpress.org.
Can you go into further detail about how you are deleting the comment? Are you deleting an activity comment that is connected to a post?
Under “Settings > BuddyPress > Options”, is “Allow activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts” checked or unchecked?
—-
For my test:
1. “Allow activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts” is checked.
2. I posted a comment on a WP blog post.
3. I navigate to the BP activity directory page and find the post in the activity stream. The WP comment that I made is listed as an activity comment under the post in the activity stream and not listed as a separate activity stream item.
4. I click on the “Delete” button for my activity comment entry.
5. I do not see the “There was a problem…” error.
I haven’t tested when “Allow activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts” is unchecked yet.
Thanks Destac. Hostgator advertises a cloud based managed WordPress plan with CDN and unlimited storage for around $10 per month. Would something like that be sufficient to get started? I’m expecting 200-300 visitors per day at most.
That might work, though the BuddyPress email template has configurable colours etc, so you’d need to fill those in inside the HTML.
You can get the HTML template from https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/assets/emails/single-bp-email.php
Are you getting ANY emails from WordPress? For example, comment moderation/approval notices.
If you are not, then this is a general WordPress problem and you will get better help quicker by 1) contacting your web host for support and 2) posting on the wordpress.org support forums.
Yes,my WordPress is in German. When I use the translation, then my WordPress is in English and Buddypress will not be translated.
Strange ! Is WordPress in german ?
Dashboard > Settings > General > Site Language
BP translation file goes to wp-content/languages/plugins/buddypress-de_DE.mo
Hallo!
Dowload it from here:
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/buddypress/stable/de/default
Select po and mo extension at the bottom of the page where’s written “Export”
Arrrgggl ! 🙂 You’re loosing your time by trying to do that. BP Default will be definetly built out soon.
Read WP codex about child theme and use this solution in any case. Whatever change you make in a core file will be owerwriten at next update. Theme modification should be made from within a child-theme, so it is safe even when an update is made on the original.
And read at least here about BuddyPress theming.
Sorry if this is kind of a newbie/generic question, but here goes.
I am building to WordPress site to replace my existing group site on Meetup.com, which has around 500-1000 active members. Members RSVP to events (5-10 per week), post photos and comments, email each other through the site, and use a message board. Some events require online payment, and we use Meetup’s WePay for that. The main plugins I plan to use to reproduce these features are BuddyPress, Events Manager Pro (with Paypal Gateway), bbPress, rtMedia, MailChimp, possibly NinjaForms, and a few others. I am developing this under GoDaddy’s shared hosting (planning to switch to SiteGround or something similar). I have read that BuddyPress in particular can be a challenge for shared servers, so I am concerned that performance will be an issue when we go live.
1. Any thoughts on the use of WordPress/BuddyPress with shared server host? Any recommendations on shared server or managed server providers? What price point should I looking at?
2. With the number of photos members would be uploading/sharing, I am afraid we will quickly exceed the basic plan’s 10GB limit. Any recommendations for a storage CDN? Or would a cacheing plugin be sufficient?
3. Any other plugins/extensions I should consider to increase performance?
Not out-of-the-box, no, sorry! Speaking from experience, it might be possible for someone to write a plugin to do this, but I think it would be extremely complex because WordPress’ email system is just terrible.
Seems compatible already https://wordpress.org/plugins/iframely/
Doesn’t do anything default for links.
@danbp had referenced a page with a plug in that wasn’t approved for the version of my wordpress (4.6). I went ahead and tried it and it works great. WP Simple Email Sender (shows as WP Single Email in settings).
I’d love to figure out how to do it the right way, but this seems to fill the bill.
It’s this one in particular that is doing it – https://wordpress.org/plugins/html-on-pages/
It’s a staging site that doesn’t have public access, but I can put the code and info in here. Here is the complete code of the functions.php in the child theme. maybe I just put it all together wrong.
<?php
function nisarg_enqueue_styles() {
$parent_style = 'nisarg-style';
wp_enqueue_style( 'bootstrap', get_template_directory_uri().'/css/bootstrap.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'font-awesome', get_template_directory_uri().'/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'nisarg-child-style',
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css',
array( $parent_style )
);
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'nisarg_enqueue_styles' );
?>
<?php
function custom_wp_mail_from( $email ) {
$handle = ‘accounts’;
$find = 'http://';
$replace = '';
$link = get_bloginfo( 'url' );
$domain = str_replace( $find, $replace, $link );
return $handle . '@' . $domain ;
}
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', 'custom_wp_mail_from' );
?>
The email link is:http://mydomain.com/activate/JA0BvkK1Q0DND10SYegdOtkTMemhGUF0/
When I click on it immediately, I get all this:
Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘phpmailerException’ with message ‘Invalid address: ‘accounts’@mydomain.com’ in /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-includes/class-phpmailer.php:946 Stack trace: #0 /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-includes/pluggable.php(352): PHPMailer->setFrom(‘\xE2\x80\x98accounts\xE2\x80\x99@…’, ‘WordPress’) #1 /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-includes/pluggable.php(1726): wp_mail(‘webmaster@arlin…’, ‘[My Dev Sit…’, ‘New user regist…’) #2 /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-members/bp-members-functions.php(2031): wp_new_user_notification(18) #3 /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-members/bp-members-screens.php(364): bp_core_activate_signup(‘JA0BvkK1Q0DND10…’) #4 [internal function]: bp_core_screen_activation(”) #5 /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-includes/plugin.php(524): cal in /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-includes/class-phpmailer.php on line 946
If I wait a while, then I get the normal webpage and it says “invalid activation key”. I don’t understand the significance of an immediate click on the link in the email vs. waiting a few more seconds, but it definitely matters.
BuddyPress is always global to the whole network on multisite.
If you want to run multiple, separate BuddyPresses on a *multisite*, what you actually want is to set up WordPress multi-network (something like https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-multi-network/).
This is actually complicated, and if you do not need to share users between your BuddyPresses, I’d suggest setting up multiple standalone regular WordPresses (or standalone multisites).
There’s also this option for now @binary10 if I’m understanding your request, but it’s not so automatic. https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-activity-plus/
FYI, minutes vs. hours ! 🙂
When you search strings, open the .pot file provided with almost any theme and plugin for translation.
In this text format file, you will find (if exist) the string and ALSO the file and the line # where it is used.
The default profile content
The vid explains that adding a bp activity link to a post embeds. Is embedding in the activity native yet?
What the embed scripts? like of the provider.
Would love to make this compatible , especially in the groups https://wordpress.org/plugins/iframely/
Here was my old combo to achieve this. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-oembed-for-buddypress-embedly-oembed-4-bp-all-embedly-content-in-bp-forum-yaaay/

Hi @bigkahunaburger,
thanks for the burger! 😉
Like you, I’m not a JS specialist so i can’t help you more with that. 🙁
But i can suggest you an alternative solution by using MediaPress. It appears that this plugin allows you to add mediabuttons by shortcode to the Status form (and not only there…).
Take a little moment to study this option, completely or to check the code how the author implemented it.
@danbp
Did you have any tips on editing that js file?
I know this is one of those “don’t try this at home kids” type of things, however I think I’m a trained professional, just not at js. I’ve spent I long time removing the media buttons and other problematic buttons. I used your old trick and had everything working. However I really needed images so I put everything aside I went with a BP gallery plugin. It was safe (or as safe as you can get), but it still saved photos on our sever.
I was going to scrap Activity altogether and go back to good old bbPress, but then I found this:
https://codecanyon.net/item/dw-tinymce-imgur-upload-wordpress-plugin/16386641
It instantly uploads user images to imgur seamlessly. All my dreams where answered. No more bloated hard drives with user images and no need to leave the site to upload to a image host.
Sadly (as you know), when I put the editor code back in place the trick no longer worked.
Sorry for the long story. The great thing about WP & BP (most of the time) is you can expand beyond what was intended. Making thing “idiot proof” is not going to stop idiots, just innovation.
Anyway if you have some tips that would be great. And you may want to check out that plugin (I have nothing to do with it).
Best,
Big Kahuna Burger 😛
wp_insert_post() takes an array as its first param. post_date is set to the current time by default so something is setting it to 0000-00-00 00:00:00.
If you’re talking about BuddyPress activity items (not WordPress posts) then recorded_time also defaults to the current time. Again, in this case there must be something in your plugin that is setting it to 0000-00-00 00:00:00.
