BuddyPress.org

One of the features of WPFront User Role Editor is that it allows you to set whether menu items are visible to logged in users or not.

@wasanajones Thank you for the report 🙂 We will be removing that information from our readme.txt https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7328

The look of your pages including the profile will be determined in large part by the theme you are using. Not sure if the image you referenced is the default buddypress theme with modifications or another WordPress theme. Pretty much any well designed WordPress theme should work but those made compatible with BP work best. You may want to try searching the WP theme directory with Buddypress as a keyword. There are also premium themes designed for BP which create their own look and feel for your site.
Hope that helps

For upload Media install: rtMedia plugin.

Yes this has been identified, a fix is going to be released today, in the meantime you will need to downgrade to 2.7. To do this you will need to download 2.7 from the “Developers” section of https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/developers/, Delete BuddyPress 2.7.1 and then upload 2.7

Try WP Better Email

One more thought aloud: I see in WordPress core code that this text also displays when nonce check (security) fails. See wp_nonce_ays() if you are interested. This function is used in check_admin_referer() which is used everywhere in BuddyPress. That’s the only hint that I can give you right now. Try investigate in this direction further. In general – this is something with your site/server and not BuddyPress itself.

To cleanup – you will need to reinstall everything from scratch (I mean create a new database and use it). Those plugins do not provide cleanup on uninstall functionality.

You don’t need a BuddyPress theme, any WordPress theme will work just fine.
You can create a child theme for your current theme and modify BuddyPress behaviour through it. Copy /plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/ to your theme (in root).

Remove everything that you don’t need, and leave only /your-theme/buddypress/members/single directory. In that dir you should work with home.php files and others, that are relevant to you.

But now I see that redefining BuddyPress template only won’t work as expected. You also need to create page-members.php file, where members – is the slug of you Members Directory page. It should be modified with

if ( bp_is_user() ) {
    get_header('slim');
} else {
    get_header();
}

and same for get_footer('slim') instead of the default usage. You will need to create header-slim.php and footer-slim.php files as well, and THERE you should remove all your navigation and all markup you don’t want that pages to have.

So yeah, quite a work, but doable once you dive into that. Hopefully I gave you the direction and general idea.

This might be because the emails are coming out with a WordPress email address, you could try using something like CB Change Mail Sender to change the address to one specific to your site maybe?

The best way – to allow access to specific pages for logged in users only. As GoogleBot is logged out – it will lose access and eventually remove indexed content. You can remove manually from Google Web Developer Console for this site as well.
There are quite a lot of topics like these here on the forum. Just google it.

etc

You can’t do that in PHP. Well, actually you can – but you will break all the styling, as you will filter our header/footer.php files include. So basically it’s not a good idea.

The best idea – to use a child theme. You can than even switch to that child theme for specific pages on your site. One of the ways to do that: https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/wordpress-different-themes-for-pages/

Another idea – do some magic with BuddyPress templates. It’s totally possible, but you will quite heavily modify them (that will complicate future maintainability).

Also it would be easier to help you if you provided a URL to your site.

Make sure, that you have “Anyone can register” checkbox in Settings checked,
AND
on this page /wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-page-settings “Register” component assigned to a WordPress page like this: http://take.ms/vYrhb
