Hi again,
Thanks for the answer 🙂
I still have an issue with the login in the sidebar. It still sents me to the /wp-login.php where I see a “Blocked” text.
I have installed WordPress with the “One Click Installer” on One.com. Could this cause any problems.
I haven´t been running the phpinfo because I´m not sure how to run it.
I can try to install WordPress manually if you think it would help?
Thanks for helping!
Regards
Torben
If your site is slow is not related to the fact of adding/removing a link, even programmatically ! 😉
Unadapted host plan, wrong settings, network issue, poor wifi connection and many, many other things can slow down a site.
Have you at least the minimum requirements to use WP and BP ?
https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/
Requirements
Run phpinfo if you’re unsure.
What do you think?
Hum… 🚧 🎢 🙏 !
Have you checked the right table ? It’s not in _bp_activity_meta, but in _usermeta, at least concerning the case of site admin.
I mentionned this topic for information on this ticket:

Hello,
I found something about this, see:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4393
By the way, I followed the steps above and I have it in my database a:0{…some content ….}. I have not changed anything. What do you think?
Thanks
If you feel comfortable with php, here’s a gist from @imath to autojoin users to groups.
Modify it to add the member_type
A little different, BuddyPress Registration Groups
Have you removed BP Remove Profile Links plugin, as it was tested up to: WordPress 3.6 beta2 BuddyPress 1.8 beta1. Could be outdated after 2 years and without need if you use the snippet now.
You have also to test your site with one of Twenty theme first.
No matter the theme or the marketplace, first thing to take in mind is how to respect the standart.
Getting started
One crucial question to all: which theme do you use ?
Have you similar issue by using one of WP’s twenty theme ?
Have you searched in your theme documentation ? Remeber that we do not support commercial products here as we have no access to the code.
Also:
The Toolbar is related to WordPress, BuddyPress use it only to add a sub-nav block under Howdy on the top right corner.
Here a complete WP tutorial, in case of. (read also the comments)
There may well be a solution for this in the WordPress or BuddyPress community, but what I’m saying is it’s far more likely that you’ll find the solution in a phpMyAdmin or MySQL community. So don’t give up here, but be aware you have options if you don’t get a response.
Hi @marvc
Whilst I can’t offer any help myself in this instance, the actual table you’re importing is irrelevant so both the WordPress and BuddyPress support forums might not be the best place to look to get help. Instead, perhaps try a phpMyAdmin or MySQL support forum. Hopefully they’ll be more help.
I have also noticed, even on this website if I shrink my browser to below the width of maybe 400-500px the menu doesn’t show the WordPress logo. Shouldn’t this happen at a much smaller width as to allow it to show on most smartphones?
You’d just submit it as you would a normal WordPress theme, but specify that it provides support for BuddyPress. See some examples:
https://wordpress.org/themes/tags/buddypress
I would like all member profiles to be completely private. Members should only be able to access their own profile and nobody elses. Admin accounts should have access as well, but all profiles should be completely private to all other members.
I have done some research and have found a few people looking for similar solutions, but none exactly like this. Additionally, it appears there may have been some plugins in the past that would have helped but I can no longer find them in the wordpress plugin repository.
Does anyone know of any plugins or custom code I could add to bp-custom.php to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance!

Hi @minglonaire
Features can be requested on Trac. Try searching existing tickets first to make sure the request isn’t already open.
That’s indeed what comes to mind with the newly introduced member types.
I just came across that old plugin that used to provide a solution for having different profile types: https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-xprofiles-acl/
One may need to look into it to see how it could possibly give a headstart.
Probably a javascript conflict. Check your browser console.
In general, it’s best to use wp_editor instead of ckeditor.
I’ve got this running with a wordpress bridge, happy days..
All I need now is for BuddyPress to pull from our user tables.
I would be very grateful for some pointers.
For instance, can I instruct BP to pull from the Xenforo (XF) database, using these methods;
Member Types
many thanks
Now I have completely deleted the MySql database and all WordPress files. I did a completely clean install of WordPress 4.2.2 (without using Softaculous) and the only plugin I installed and activated is BuddyPress 2.2.3.1. Haven’t changed the language or anything else.
The problem is still there, exactly the same. The users get activated immediately after registration without clicking on the email link that is being sent to them.
a:3:{i:0;s:7:”English”;i:1;s:4:”Math”;i:2;s:10:”Substitute”;}
is a serialized array.
BuddyPress will unserialize profile data via
xprofile_get_field_data( $field, $user_id = 0, $multi_format = 'array' )
and return an array.
But if you want to do this in the context of a search query, you probably want to use wildcards in the mysql statement, for example: %math%.
This can be tricky to implement if you haven’t done it before.
There is already a good plugin that does member searches based on profile field values:

Hi @albydigei
This functionality is currently in development. See this ticket for progress:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6057
I deactivated all other plugins besides BuddyPress. Activated the 2014 theme. Changed the language to English and made sure BuddyPress pages were all assigned. The permalinks were already not on default. Then I deleted the wp-config and htaccess.
Then I got to the point of install. I was asked for database information. I put the information of my already existing database, but I changed the wp_ table prefix to match the one I use for my already existing database and WP said that there was already an installation and didn’t go further. It automatically generated the wp-config with new hashes, but not .htaccess. I created it myself and only put the WP default .htaccess code:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Just to make sure, I also downloaded my entire public_html directory, and also downloaded a fresh copy of WordPress 4.2.2 and BuddyPress 2.2.3.1 and then ran them through a file difference checker application. The only two differences I found were:
1. “version.php” inside the WordPress “includes” folder
had as last line $wp_local_package = ‘el’; and I removed it and
2. in BuddyPress “bp-members” folder the file “bp-members-template.php” I had changed a language string and I replaced the entire file with the fresh copy.
All other WordPress and BuddyPress files are completely identical with the original versions.
I used a different browser to register, but the problem persists exactly the same. It doesn’t work for any gmail account, but works for 1 of the two domains that used to work before.
I used Softaculous to install WordPress myself.
I will try your suggestions and let you know, thank you so much for your responses.
