BuddyPress.org

So you’re using BP version 12.0 on a regular site (not a multisite config), you activated, then deactivated BP Classic because it was no more needed. And now when you go into the URLs tab of the BuddyPress settings and tries to customize slugs, it adds a -2 suffix.

Is it happening when these slugs are default BuddyPress ones only (eg: activity, members) or is it happening even with these slugs: ‘activites’, ‘membres’ for example?

If it’s only happening with BuddyPress default slugs: check there are no regular WordPress pages using the BP slugs.

Then try to use the Reset Slugs BuddyPress tools from the WP Admin tools menu.

If it didn’t fixed the issue, try to temporarily add this code to the functions.php of your active theme:
remove_filter( 'wp_unique_post_slug', 'bp_core_set_unique_directory_page_slug', 10, 6 );

Go to the URLs tab of the BuddyPress settings and try to customize slugs again.

Then remove the custom code you added to the functions.php of your active theme.

Hi @fasirathore

Thanks for your feedback, are you using BP version 12.0.0?
Can you check your error log file to see if something was traced in it?
What’s your WordPress set up ? Multisite or not ? If Multisite is BuddyPress activated on the network ?

Hi @jaroslawistok

Sorry to read about it. Can you tell me a bit more about your config?
– regular or Multisite WordPress ?
– if Multisite how BuddyPress is activated ? Network widely, on the main site or on a subsite ?
– If activated network widely, are you using the constant to set the BP root site to be a subsite instead of main one?

Thank you Mathieu

Hello everyone, bonjour Mathieu

Bravo pour le travail !

Since the update in 12, I have a slug problem.

My BP is installed as a sub-site, according to the procedure described here https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installation-in-wordpress-multisite/#b-network-wide-activation-buddypress-root-blog-in-secondary-site

Main site: auposte.fr
BP site: comico.auposte.fr

However, I can’t impose my slugs. WP refuses to overwrite the slugs and use the basic slugs. It always adds -3 (activity-3, members-3).

Example: https://www.auposte.fr/wp-admin/network/admin.php?page=bp-rewrites won’t register simple slugs (without the -3). I tried in English (groups, members): same defeat.

What I don’t understand is how BuddyPress generates different slugs (members, members, members-3) for the same thing?

Where are the slugs managed in the database since BP version 12? Can I modify them in the database directly?

Thanks/Merci mille fois Mathieu et l’équipe!
David

Maybe it’s due to this bug we’ll be fixing in 12.1.0

Can you test adding the following code to see if it’s fixing the issue into the functions.php file of your active theme for example:

add_filter( 'bp_enqueue_assets_in_bp_pages_only', '__return_false' );

Hi,

I advise you to download and activate the BP Classic backwards compatibility Add-on for 3rd party plugins not ready yet for version 12.0.0 of BuddyPress (bbPress is not currently ready for it, see: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3576)

Hi,

Have you tried to download and activate the BP Classic backwards compatibility Add-on?

Hello, thank you for your assistance. I have upgraded to BuddyPress v12, but now I am facing an issue. I am unable to customize my site from WordPress, specifically under APPEARANCE/CUSTOMIZE. Every time I try to customize the site, I receive an error message. Even the widget page is not loading properly for customization and some widgets stopped working (eg: who’s online widget)

This issue prompted me to use WP Rollback to revert to the previous version, but going back broke my site. Is there a fix for this? I would really appreciate your help.

Now I’ve read the other topic you posted into, I know you are using WordPress Multisite.

My question about viewing the registration page being disconnected might seem a bit obvious but I wanted to check if you were using or not the Site invitation feature of BuddyPress which uses our signup page although global registration are disabled.

But I guess registration is on since you’re using a specific plugin.

Using BuddyPress < 12.0.0, once you removed the registration page, were you getting a notice to do the page association ?

I believe reading your post we should probably stop assuming you want BuddyPress to manage registration to your site, so I’ll work on a way to only do so if the admin opts in.

Hi @bermudastream can you give more details about your config:

– WordPress Multisite or regular ?
– In the site health information tab, what are the values of:
– WordPress > registration
– BuddyPress > URL parser

– being disconnected, what do you see when you go to this registration page ?

Unsure if this is what you mean, I am trying to get back the WordPress Registration form, maybe you will fare better with it?

Resolved – How to disable the registration function of buddypress?

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.
