(This error message in your screenshot refers to some other plugin, not BuddyPress. But anyway:)

To remove any plugin in WordPress, go into wp-content/plugins/ with FPT or however, and delete the plugin folder — in this case, BuddyPress.

If you visit your-site.com/wp-admin/plugins.php directly, WordPress should disable the missing plugin.

If you happen to not be logged in, and so can’t get into wp-admin because of the error… you could edit something in the database with SQL, but it sounds like you aren’t technically proficient with SQL to do this (it’s easy to break something else), so the last option — and this is a nuke — rename your theme folder to something else, rename the entire plugins folder to something else, then you should be able to log into wp-admin. WordPress will switch to one of the default twenty* themes. You can then rename the plugin folder back and start reactivating them one-by-one, and then switch the theme back.

Unfortunately there aren’t any management features built into WordPress to deal with uploaded user/group pictures (or cover images) in the same way that WordPress has its media library. This may change, but probably not for a long while, or until a contributor appears who really, really wants to fix this.

I wouldn’t worry about unused images on your server. If you’re worried about disk space, get a better host with more filesystem space. This shouldn’t be an issue nowadays.

Exactly. The first thing you want to do @phound1 is verify if WordPress sends its own emails. An easy example is the comment moderation notification email. If it does not work, obviously fixing that is the first step. Let us know, we’ll try to point you in the right directions.

“need a FTP script” – tried filezilla?
I use smart ftp more often, but filezilla is free last I checked.

ftp in, download a backup of all the files.

Don’t know what you mean by “SQL script to remove buddypress” – I would use phpmyadmin to login to your sql database, click export, custom, check ‘add drop table’ – and save a copy..

then I would go to (via ftp or file manager in cpanel) – site / wp-content/plugins

I’d rename the plugins folder to /plugins-hold – then create a new /plugins folder

at that point you should be able to login to the site if you to sitename/wp-admin/

I’d immediately check appearance – themes – change to default.. then start adding the needed plugins one by one.. if you find that enabled two plugins at once causes a problem – you probably have found the conflict.

Of course it could be a theme issue, a corrupt database, a hacked site – who knows.. but that’s what I would do.. I’m not an expert, and double check the documentation at wordpress.org for making backups. ( https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups )
Hope that helps.

I see your site has a HTTP Basic Auth. user/password, so I can’t track down down where it’s redirecting to/from.

How exactly did this problem occur? If you have the site going live in a couple of days (hopefully), then it must have been working to get it ready, so what did you do to break this?

Please also let us know if you’re running WordPress multisite or not.

Here’s an example of what’s allowed:

Activity Stream Plus for BuddyPress

Note, the following is an example of what isn’t allowed:

BuddyPress Activity Stream Plus

You may come across older plugins that use the 2nd naming style. That’s because the guidance above was introduced by the WordPress Plugin Review Team relatively recently.

Better to ask for this the plugin support

Hi,

you can use BuddyPress in the plugin name, under condition the public can understand clearly that it is an add-on FOR BP and not a part OF BP.

For the domain name, i presume it’s the same trademark condition as for wordpress: no, you can’t. You can use bp-something[dot]com but not buddypress-something[dot]com

BuddyPress comes like WordPress under GPLv2 license and has similar terms of use.

I haven’t seen this on my dev site, and I don’t think we’ve had reports of this, so… as it’s staging, please can you switch the theme temporarily to a default WordPress theme, like twenty-twelve (etc) — and then visit this same URL again and see if the warning is still being printed or not?

I suspect it’s something in your theme, maybe one of the templates, or some customisation hooked into the members loop, but switching the theme is an easy way to start figuring out possible causes.

I’d look at increasing performance generally rather than specifically focusing on trying to block search engines.

Like… I don’t know what other plugins or themes you are running, or how well they are written, nor anything about your hosts’ performance, but you need to look into those. I’d also look at making sure you have an object cache available and configured for WordPress if there isn’t already.

Have you tried any of the methods available via google search?

How To Stop Search Engines From Indexing Specific Posts And Pages In WordPress

Hi @rezbiz,

in brief, you want to add some status dependent custom link to the BuddyBar.

I’ll ignore Kleo (premium theme) and Visual Composer (third party plugin).

Following examples let you add an external link to a non BP page on almost any menus (except BP usermenu).

How it works ?
– create a test page and call it Book.
– the page slug must be /book/
– the link (tab/button) will be displayed to logged-in users only.

I made also a snippet which add such a link to the WordPress Main Menu. This menu is the one you see in WP’s menu customizer by default. Depending the theme you use, you have always a main menu and X others. This can vary and it’s to you to find how it can/should work eventually. See theme documentation and WP Codex if you get in trouble with it.
Note that it should work with all Twenty themes at least.

Add the snippets to bp-custom.php and see the result. After that, read through the code and modify the page name/ID and slug to your need. Leave anything else untouched.

// add Custom tab on site wide activity and members directory pages
function tab_custom_link_to_page() {

	if ( bp_is_activity_component() || bp_is_page( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) ) {

		if ( !is_user_logged_in() )
			return false;

		// link to what you want
		$link = bp_get_root_domain() . '/book';

		echo'<li><a href="'. $link .'">My Book</a></li>'; 
	}
  
}
add_action( 'bp_activity_type_tabs', 'tab_custom_link_to_page' ); // site wide activity page
add_action( 'bp_members_directory_member_types', 'tab_custom_link_to_page' ); // members directory page

// add Custom tab on Profile Nav
function add_profiles_link_to_page(){

	if ( bp_is_profile_component() || bp_is_user() ) {

	if ( !is_user_logged_in() )
		return false;

	$link = bp_get_root_domain() . '/book/';

	?>
		<li><a href="<?php echo $link; ?>"><?php printf( 'My Book' ); ?></a></li>
	<?php  
	}
}
add_action( 'bp_member_options_nav', 'add_profiles_link_to_page' );

// add Custom tab on Groups Nav
function add_groups_link_to_page(){

if( bp_is_active( 'groups' ) ) {

	if ( !is_user_logged_in() )
		return false;

	bp_core_new_subnav_item( array(

        return;

    $button_args = array(
        'id'         => 'my-books',

        'link_href'  => $link,
        'wrapper'    => false,
        'block_self' => false,
    );  
   
    ?>
		<li><?php echo bp_get_button( apply_filters( 'bp_get_group_custom_button', $button_args ) ); ?></a></li>
    <?php
	}	
}
add_action( 'bp_groups_directory_group_filter', 'add_groups_directory_link_to_page' );

// add Custom tab on WP Main Menu ( after Home, About, etc )
function main_menu_custom_link_to_page( $menu ) { 
     
	if ( !is_user_logged_in() )
			return $menu;
	else
 	// link to what you want
	$link = bp_get_root_domain() . '/book';

	$grouplink = '<li><a href="'. $link . '">My Book</a></li>';

	$menu = $menu . $grouplink;
	return $menu;
}
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'main_menu_custom_link_to_page' );

Yes, it looks complicated, but it isn’t. Simply it’s not homogeneous ! 🙂
