BuddyPress.org

Previously, it was possible to eliminate the registration page entirely, which I had to do because of excessive spam sign-ups. However, after the latest update, I attempted to delete the page, only to find that BuddyPress pages are no longer accessible in the network admin panel. I even tried renaming the registration page to something obscure, but I’m still inundated with bot and spam sign-ups.

Is the BuddyPress team aware of what I perceive as a major setback in the latest update? Previously, I used a plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-registration/) to navigate around the weak registration page and I am still using it except that I have the main buddypress registration page causing problems which I cannot cancel. Perhaps I’m overlooking something. If so, could you provide suggestions on how to secure the BuddyPress registration page or eliminate it completely which I would prepare to do as
I’ve never been able to customize it

Hi @shemakeswebsites,

12.0.0 brings URL slugs customization, that’s a big improvement to have meaningful URLs for non English communities.

These communities are using different words for things like Activity, groups etc.. They can do so thanks to the l10n feature of WordPress. So a good way to reach your goal is to use a custom translation file. And I believe it’s the best way to do so, because the page title or labels won’t be enough to really reword all places where we use groups.

You can try to put your custom translation file into wp-content/languages/buddypress/buddypress-xx_XX.mo replacing the xx_XX with your locale maybe it’s even working with en_US.

Yes, it is possible to create a cricket scoring web application using WordPress. While WordPress is traditionally used for content management and blogging, it can be extended to build various types of web applications, including a cricket scoring application.

Here are the steps you can take to create a basic cricket scoring web application on WordPress:

1. Choose a WordPress Theme:
– Select a WordPress theme that suits your requirements or use a sports-oriented theme. There are many themes available that can be customized to fit the design and functionality you need.

2. Install and Configure WordPress:
– Set up WordPress on your server and configure it according to your needs. You can use popular hosting providers like Bluehost, SiteGround, or others to host your WordPress site.

3. Install Relevant Plugins:
– Use WordPress plugins to add specific functionality to your site. For a cricket scoring application, you might need plugins that handle sports scoring or booking systems. Some popular WordPress plugins for sports include SportsPress, Team Rosters, and Booking Calendar.

4. Customize and Design:
– Customize the appearance of your site using the WordPress Customizer or a page builder plugin. Ensure that the design aligns with the branding and requirements of the cricket ground owner.

5. Implement Cricket Scoring Features:
– Depending on the complexity of the scoring system you want, you may need to customize or extend existing plugins or develop custom features. This may involve custom post types, taxonomies, and fields to handle match details, scores, and other relevant information.

6. Ground Availability:
– Implement a booking or reservation system to display the availability of the cricket ground. You can use booking plugins or customize them based on your specific needs.

7. Real-time Score Updates:
– For real-time score updates, consider integrating a live scoring API or implement a solution that allows the input of scores during a live match.

8. User Management:
– Implement user roles and permissions to manage who can update scores, edit content, and perform other administrative tasks.

9. Responsive Design:
– Ensure that your web application has a responsive design so that users can access and interact with it on various devices, including smartphones and tablets.

10. Testing and Security:
– Test your application thoroughly to identify and fix any bugs or issues. Also, prioritize the security of the application, especially if it involves user data or sensitive information.

Keep in mind that while WordPress can be a powerful tool for web development, more complex functionalities may require a combination of existing plugins and custom development. If the requirements become highly specialized, you might also consider consulting with a web developer or agency to ensure the successful implementation of your cricket scoring web application.

BuddyPress 12.0 function bp_core_get_user_domain deprecated

Hi !

Since version 12.0 I get a critical error.
WordPress debug mode gives me this message :
Deprecated: La fonction bp_core_get_user_domain est obsolète depuis la version 12.0.0 ! Utilisez bp_members_get_user_url() à la place. in /home/nudeoep/www/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6031

I installed BP Classic and it resolves the problem.

BUT when I try to change the options of my Flatsome Theme, I don’t see the regular screen but this :
Dernières notes publiées (BuddyPress)
Titre :
Nombre max. à afficher :

It’s weird !

Thanks in adavance four your help !

@wingflap

12.1.0 will be a minor release. There won’t be a 13.0.0 release just like the 13th floor often lacks in building. We’ll jump to 14.0.0 for our next major release.

How long will it take us to reach 14.0.0, it depends on the number of people who will contribute to it. 12.0.0 took us almost a year and 46 people contributed to it.

See: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/9038

I don’t know if this has anything to do with the new update but every time I tried to go to customize in the themes I can’t display the page correctly since the update I’ve done the classic install it seems like it’s not compatible with my themes is there a way to go back to the original WordPress

Hi

Can anyone tell me why when I enter the BuddyPress from WordPress settings it is not showing the Pages tab so I have no way of setting the registration, login pages etc?

Thanks

Matt

When BP Classic is active the WordPress menu does not work correctly: Appearance->Customize.
Appearance submenu entries using: …wp-admin/customize.php?return=…
You inactivate it and it works.

Thanks for this great work!!
Gracias por este gran trabajo!!

You can easily check if email functionality is working on your website by using a couple of test email plugins available online. https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/
If it’s working, email functionality should also be operational. BuddyPress uses the same approach to send emails.

@erotmil Custom codes need to be checked for deprecated functions. BP v12 supports the last 2 versions. https://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2022/11/20/the-way-buddypress-loads-deprecated-code-will-change-in-version-11-0-0/
