Hi,
User registration validation is not working which allows fake and spam accounts to be created very easily. this feature use to work very well months ago but all of a sudden stop working! Upon checking forums i notice this is not related to my website only but everyone got the same problem with their wordpress sites.
How can i fix this issue? I have used 5 major plugins that were suggested but none of them worked!
Thanks,
Ozy
Look, it’s ok for free. But this is the NUMBER 1 social plugin. That should mean something. Obviously it doesn’t to buddy press. They really should make this a private plugin not open source, make it premium, so that the developers actually take it serious.
Does it get the job done? Sure. Does it do it well? Hardly.
This plugin has easily become the biggest headache out of any plugin I’ve installed. I’d rec’m Ultimate Member or some other premium UM plugin. Yes, they’re not free, but it’s not worth the headache.
BuddyPress is basically a car that’s made up of scrap parts. Because of its popularity, there’s a lot of add-ons. But that’s kind’ve the problem, you’re going to need to piece it together from stuff you found at a garage sale, instead of one nice bundle all in one place.
Next, the support SUCKS. Their forum is dead, or very slow to respond, if ever. You can tell apathy and neglect rules the day there. There is no incentive to help. The moderators there are the typical IT “pros”. Condescending, know it alls, tech speak, and not user friendly. I call these people idiot savants. They are good at math & programming type things, but suck at seeing the bigger picture (marketing, UX, etc). They are like stackoverflow.com. More interested in sounding smart or trying to preach some petty nonsense, than ACTUALLY HELPING their consumers.
Next, there’s the UI/UX. BuddyPress layout is stuck in 2009. There’s been minimal updates to their UI. If you want to see just how ugly BuddyPress is relatively, just see other plugins like Ultimate Member. Then you’ll realize BP’s UI is far behind.
Worst of all, YOU CANT DEACTIVATE & DELETE IT WITHOUT HEADACHES!! I am trying to uninstall it right now and it is throwing me the white screen of death. Following the troubleshooting steps did not work. Support is non existent.
I’ve never seen a more neglected popular (hundreds of thousands of downloads) wordpress plugin, in a multitude of areas (support, UI, code, etc). Do yourself a favor and don’t install, it creates more headaches than solutions, I’ve wasted WAY too much time and lost revenue due to this very un-well thought out plugin.
Hello,
When upgrading to PHP 7, I saw a number of errors and warnings from Siteground’s PHP 7 compatibility checker. The only one I needed to act on was:
$empty_translations = & new Translations();in /bp-forums/bbpress/bb-includes/backpress/pomo/sample/app.phpIn the next release, is it possible to have that line updated to just:
$empty_translations = new Translations();Thanks,

Topic: Cannot add User to Group

Topic: Is BuddyPRess Capable?
Would BuddyPress work for a medium-sized social site, say 1,000 active users? What about larger? I like the possibilities that BuddyPress offers but I want to make sure that it is capable (of course I need to hook it up to a good host). Also, while I’m at it what are the best hosts for WordPress platforms? I’m new to WordPress for the most part and am still figuring things out.
Hi Forum,
I wonder if anyone can help? I have recently brought a Kleo theme witch came included with a nicely customised BuddyPress theme as shown at this link: https://seventhqueen.com/themes/kleo/members/kleoadmin/
However for technical reasons I am not able to use the Kleo theme for the website that I am creating so I will no longer be using my recently purchased Kleo theme.
The sad thing is that I actually brought that theme solely for how the looks of its BuddyPress theme…. Now the question is, is there any way that the look / design or skin of this theme can be extracted and used in my BuddyPress plugin that I downloaded from the WordPress theme site?
I look forwards to hearing if this request is possible.
Kind regards.
Fitz.
Hi,
I have this code below for one custom post type to be shown in the activity feed. All works fine, but how can i use this also for an extra CTP?I tried adding an extra line
add_post_type_support( 'listing_2', 'buddypress-activity' );
But that is not working. Also i rather have different tracking_args for the different custom post types.Anyone? Thanks!
<?php //Listing activity support function customize_page_tracking_args_listing() { // Check if the Activity component is active before using it. if ( ! bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) { return; } // Don't forget to add the 'buddypress-activity' support! add_post_type_support( 'listing', 'buddypress-activity' ); /** * Also don't forget to allow comments from the WordPress Edit Page screen * see this screencap https://cldup.com/nsl4TxBV_j.png */ bp_activity_set_post_type_tracking_args( 'listing', array( 'action_id' => 'new_listing', 'bp_activity_admin_filter' => __( 'Vermelding toegevoegd', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'bp_activity_front_filter' => __( 'Vermelding', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'bp_activity_new_post' => __( '%1$s heeft een nieuwe vermelding genaamd <a href="%2$s">[vermelding]</a> toegevoegd', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'contexts' => array( 'activity', 'member' ), 'comment_action_id' => 'new_listing_comment', 'bp_activity_comments_admin_filter' => __( 'Reageerde op vermelding', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'bp_activity_comments_front_filter' => __( 'Reacties op vermelding', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'bp_activity_new_comment' => __( '%1$s reageerde op <a href="%2$s">een vermelding</a>', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'position' => 100, ) ); } add_action( 'bp_init', 'customize_page_tracking_args_listing', 1000 ); function new_listing_include_post_type_title( $action, $activity ) { if ( empty( $activity->id ) ) { return $action; } if ( 'new_listing' != $activity->type ) { return $action; } preg_match_all( '/<a.*?>([^>]*)<\/a>/', $action, $matches ); if ( empty( $matches[1][1] ) || '[vermelding]' != $matches[1][1] ) { return $action; } $post_type_title = bp_activity_get_meta( $activity->id, 'post_title' ); if ( empty( $post_type_title ) ) { switch_to_blog( $activity->item_id ); $post_type_title = get_post_field( 'post_title', $activity->secondary_item_id ); // We have a title save it in activity meta to avoid switching blogs too much if ( ! empty( $post_type_title ) ) { bp_activity_update_meta( $activity->id, 'post_title', $post_type_title ); } restore_current_blog(); } return str_replace( $matches[1][1], esc_html( $post_type_title ), $action ); } add_filter( 'bp_activity_custom_post_type_post_action', 'new_listing_include_post_type_title', 10, 2 );Hey, I’m new to BuddyPress. Is there anything that can be done if your theme isn’t compatible with buddypress? It said it was when i installed buddypress but I can’t upload avatars, cover photos for groups or profiles or group images. I am able to do all those with other themes (I tried it out)…. 🙁 but I really like the theme I’m using.
I’m using Buddypress 2.9.1 WordPress 4.8.2 and the theme SuperMag.
Hi, this is my current version:
– Latest WordPress 4.8.2
– Buddypress 2.9.1
– Bimber WordPress Theme 5.0.2Problems: Everything is fine except for the uploading and cropping part. The cropping handle was nowhere to be seen, like a tiny little pixel on the screen but when I hover the mouse it appears the cross cursor. And of course, unusable in everyway. So below is my problem: big avatar remains, a tiny black dot on the top left corner.
Anyone had this same issue please help, I would be so thankful. Bimber is probably not the problem to all of this because the theme itself is really light-coded and every other function went really well. There is no conflict on other plugins since I only use plugin for contact or such, not any involving JQuery or anything.
Topic: Avatars
Hello,
I’m sorry, but I can’t find the way how to import Avatars.
We are moving to wordpress/buddypress and we have over 100.000 users. We have successfully transfer all data, but can’t find the way to connect user to correct avatar…. because e are moving from custom build website – all users’ avatars are in one folder and not separated by users’ folders like in buddypress.
Please, is there anyway – even in database, how we can link users to correct avatar?

Hi,
So i have this script in my /plugins/bp-custom.php file (see below). I was wondering if it is possible to exclude new posts, from posting them on the activity wall, for a certain category. So that (i.e.) new posts that are posted in category_id 2 are not posted on the wall.Any ideas on this?
Here is my script:<?php //Listing activity support function customize_page_tracking_args_listing() { // Check if the Activity component is active before using it. if ( ! bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) { return; } // Don't forget to add the 'buddypress-activity' support! add_post_type_support( 'listing', 'buddypress-activity' ); /** * Also don't forget to allow comments from the WordPress Edit Page screen * see this screencap https://cldup.com/nsl4TxBV_j.png */ bp_activity_set_post_type_tracking_args( 'listing', array( 'action_id' => 'new_listing', 'bp_activity_admin_filter' => __( 'Post added', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'bp_activity_front_filter' => __( 'Post', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'bp_activity_new_post' => __( '%1$s added a new post called <a href="%2$s">[post]</a>', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'contexts' => array( 'activity', 'member' ), 'comment_action_id' => 'new_listing_comment', 'bp_activity_comments_admin_filter' => __( 'Commented on', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'bp_activity_comments_front_filter' => __( 'Comments on post', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'bp_activity_new_comment' => __( '%1$s commented on <a href="%2$s">a post</a>', 'custom-textdomain' ), 'position' => 100, ) ); } add_action( 'bp_init', 'customize_page_tracking_args_listing', 1000 ); function new_listing_include_post_type_title( $action, $activity ) { if ( empty( $activity->id ) ) { return $action; } if ( 'new_listing' != $activity->type ) { return $action; } preg_match_all( '/<a.*?>([^>]*)<\/a>/', $action, $matches ); if ( empty( $matches[1][1] ) || '[post]' != $matches[1][1] ) { return $action; } $post_type_title = bp_activity_get_meta( $activity->id, 'post_title' ); if ( empty( $post_type_title ) ) { switch_to_blog( $activity->item_id ); $post_type_title = get_post_field( 'post_title', $activity->secondary_item_id ); // We have a title save it in activity meta to avoid switching blogs too much if ( ! empty( $post_type_title ) ) { bp_activity_update_meta( $activity->id, 'post_title', $post_type_title ); } restore_current_blog(); } return str_replace( $matches[1][1], esc_html( $post_type_title ), $action ); } add_filter( 'bp_activity_custom_post_type_post_action', 'new_listing_include_post_type_title', 10, 2 );Hi guys,
I have a WordPress MultiSite (With 9 SubSites) where I’m running BuddyPress 2.9.1, with the Multi Blog feature enabled. The problem is, when I try to edit the profile fields, I see that there are several instances of the same First Name and Last Name fields listed there (It looks like 8 sets of duplicates). And because these fields can’t be deleted, I really need some help in fixing this bug and removing these extra fields.
Has anyone encountered this issue before? Any help would be much appreciated.
Title is pretty self explanatory but im doing a false check to see if the profile being viewed is NOT that the one of the logged in user, however this is causing my page layout to become heaps messed up and im not sure why since none of the other code changes. Any ideas on why this is happening or if there is a better way to go about this?
Wordpress: 4.8.2
Buddypress: 2.9.1
