Hi there,
I have the wordpress 4.5.4 that I now is compatibel with Buddypress 2.6.2 (the last version, I think).
Now the WordPress is asking to update to 4.6.1, should I do it? Or if I do it the buddypress will not work correctly?
Thank you very much for your attention,
Hi,
appart it is a wordpress related question, you can use CSS.
Try this rule; goes to child-theme style.css
div.wp-editor-container div.quicktags-toolbar {
background-color: red!important;
}
You can find good tuts on the web for more details.
I’m unable to reproduce your issue on a single install with over 20 plugins active and plenty of custom functions active in bp-custom.php
I can upload medias without problem with different 3th party themes or Twenty’s
Try to upload a fresh copy of WordPress and BP and see if it makes a difference.
Now about the snippet.
It works more or less, no code error. You commented the action, so it is deactivated if someone copy/paste it without correcting this.
That said, what is the reason behind using a redirection to login if the site, or at least the buddyPress parts, should be private ?
Wouldn’t it be more logic to redirect visitors to an anonymous page with some important information, from which the first one could be Sorry, but this site is private ? Followed by some informations how to register or pay a fee or whatever the reason.
A private site has two type of visitors: those invited to join and the others. Don’t give the opportunity to those who are there by chance to enter the site so easily.
I let you think about this and eventually create an appropriate page and template.
Here a code example redirecting to a page called Intranet and the correct calls to slugs for all components (including bbPress).
function bpfr_guest_redirect() {
global $bp;
// enter the slug or component conditional here
if ( bp_is_activity_component() || bp_is_groups_component() || bp_is_blogs_component() || bp_is_page( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) || is_bbpress() ) {
// not logged in user are redirected to - comment/uncomment or add/remove to your need
if( !is_user_logged_in() ) {
//wp_redirect( get_option('siteurl') ); //back to homepage
//wp_redirect( get_option('siteurl') . '/register' ); // back to register page
wp_redirect( get_option('siteurl') . '/intranet' ); // back to whatever page
}
}
}
add_filter( 'get_header', 'bpfr_guest_redirect', 1 );
Add it to child-theme’s functions.php
I’ve designed and developed a theme for BuddyPress. It’s in a stable condition and has had some user feedback so far which has helped it become more functional and solid for mobile, tablet and desktop sites running WordPress + BuddyPress.
You can view it at http://buddycore.com and grab a download on GitHub https://github.com/buddycore/surface-theme
I’m building features the users ask for but mainly tidying up on the core functionality at this stage.
This is currently a hobby of mine but i’m willing to take on small freelance jobs at the moment for WordPress + BuddyPress work.
Check it out.
Thanks
Hello,
I’ve researched so many forum posts, and I’m not getting anywhere in solving this problem – and it is so important to this site and the whole reason I’ve built around BuddyPress!
I have anyone can register in general settings.
I have the register page selected in page options in Buddypress settings.
The page exists, is a parent page in Pages.
I have tried disabling all plugins and switching to the 2016 template.
I have checked the register.php file exists in the appropriate folder: public_html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration
I am using the most update wp 4.6.1
My URL is http://pathways4learning.com Clicking on register on the top black bar, or on the link on the login page, takes me to a ‘page not found’ and 404 error page.
PLEASE HELP! There is always a solution, please help me find it.
Thank you in advance.
Hi,
the logout link is redirected to the same page. If you’re on your profile notifications screen, which is only intended for you, it is normal that when you logout from there, you’re redirected to a page not found message. Notifications is even private and not public.
The solution is to redirect to an always public part of the site on logout.
Add this snippet to child-theme’s functions.php
//* Redirect WordPress Logout to Home Page
add_action( 'wp_logout', create_function( '', 'wp_redirect( home_url() ); exit();' ) );
Advice 1: use preferably the login widget, so the user stays on the same page where he attempt to login instead to be redirected to that boring wp-login page.
Advice 2: on the Home (which is the member directory), you have all BP pages listed at the bottom. Remove them ! You certainly don’t need to give access to account activation or register page to your visitors…
Best recommendation would be to use this premium plugin
WooCommerce BuddyPress Integration
and some additionnal add_on like this one:
https://fr.wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-buddypress-integration-xprofile-checkout-manager/
Note: BuddyPress doesn’t handle registering, it only shows the wp-login form with some more fields (if xprofile component is activated).
Hello Buddypress buddies,
I’m having a difficult issue that deals with logging out of Buddypress.
With Buddypress installed, WP’s Menu editor gives me the option of adding Buddypress Logged-In and Logged-Out links. I used this feature to add “Log Out” and “Log In” to my menu.
These links work great when the user is on a non-buddypress menu item (such as Blog,) however, if the user is currently on a buddypress menu item such as “Notifications,” or “Settings,” and then he clicks “Log Out,” then he gets this error message.
To be more specific, this is what the message says:
Error 404 – Page Not Found
Sorry, I’ve looked everywhere but I can’t find the page you’re looking for.
If you follow the link from another website, I may have removed or renamed the page some time ago. You may want to try searching for the page:
notifications
Search
I’m using WordPress v4.6.1 and Buddypress v2.6.2
I’m also using the Graphene theme, and I have a static home page set to Members
Here is a link to my site http://www.adultchatclub.com
Thanks in advance!
Hi. In my project I have an Ajax function that reorganizes the activities.
Everything is working well except the oembed content, like YouTube videos, that are not embedded as expected.
I found this post that describe the same situation, but talking about WordPress posts.

Any suggestion will be appreciate.
Thanks.
Hi
I want to create a dropdown of listing categories from which a user can select the categories on registration. But I am not sure how that would be done as I didn’t find any relevant tutorial on pre populating dropdown in xprofile
wordpress version: 4.6.0
buddypress: 2.6.1.1
and here is a link to my site
http://dev6.inserito.me/Birthbox/
Loginizer is a third party plugin, it is not part of WordPress.
Afaik you have to check WordPress alone as very first debug step.
Rename the complete plugin folder (this will deactivate all plugins) and test WP with a twenty theme.
Keep also define('WP_DEBUG', true); in wp-config while testing.
kleo matches 175 times in search result on this forum… and only 55 times at 7thqueen support.
Despite we can’t help you with premium themes, as we have no access to the code, people constantly comes here to ask for help, solve issues or get advice for customizing their expensive theme.
That’s sad, a little unfair and may be just c’est la vie finally ?
Perhaps, when you are tempted to buy some novelty item – such as an awesome newest theme – try to visualize it in a pile of junk at a yard sale with a 50 cent price tag on it!
Did you ever asked you why WordPress comes with a new default theme each year since 2010 ?
Guess it’s time to say Hello Twenty Seventeen !
Hello Dan,
The error is: “error occurred in the upload, please try again”. I cannot check from media library if the file is there. However, when I go to wp-content I can see the file is already being transferred to the folder. It is very weird.
I have seeing other people having the issue, but not just from BuddyPress.

I have tried but no luck. It seems mine is stucked with buddypress. I have cleared all my plugins and even only just installed and activate buddypress. I am not sure why this happens.
I haven’t try to deactivate “loginizer” and also “akismet” as they seems to come with the default wp installation. Moreover, it happens when I activate the buddypress. I am also running on default wordpress 2016 theme just to test things out.
Hi,
that’s a generic WordPress question. BP doesn’t handle with login authetication.
Do you receive some php error messages when you activate wp_debug in wp-config.php ?
Please read here for more debug advices.
Hello guys, I am running with Ampps locally before I try to have my website upload in the actual server. I have recently find out that BuddyPress is the culprit. It only happens if BuddyPress is activated.

You can see the beside animation keeps going round and round and never really stop. How can this be solved?
I am using latest WordPress 4.6.1 and also latest buddypress 2.6.2

Hi,
I’ve installed Buddypress and created extended fields. I’ve found that when I create a new user in the WordPress admin, it copies some of the information from the profile fields into the extended profile fields.
For example one of my extended fields is ‘Membership type’. When I create a new user with the name ‘Bob’, I find that the ‘Membership type’ is now ‘Bob’ for that record. When I try to overwrite it I find all the fields start overwriting each other every time I click save. For example I change ‘Membership type’ to ‘Individual’ and find that the ‘first name’, ‘nickname’ and ‘display name’ are all now ‘Individual’.
I’m using BuddyPress version 2.6.2 and WP version 4.6.1
Can anyone shed some light on what’s going on?
Many thanks.
Hi!
1) yes – as i already explained
2) yes
3) the solution is to patch the file manually. It will be available in a future bbPress update, but i ignore the date… It’s better to patch immediatly, update can be in a long time.
Here is the patch.
– In red you see the current code.
– In green the new one you can use.
Remove the line in red and replace it by the green one. Note this modification in a safe place, in case the patch won’t be applied at next bbP update. This can happen and is available for absolutly any plugin, theme and even WP when it comes to patch core files.
You see also the line number so it’s very easy to find it inside the file.
The concerned file is mentionned in bold, above the diff. code itself.
FYI the complete path is wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/activity.php
I suppose you know how to copy/paste ? 🙂
Isn’t possible at the moment.
My site is getting heavily brigaded by spammers
Sorry for you, but adding moderation to status wouldn’t avoid spammers signicantly.
Have you installed WP by following some basic security recommandation ?
Do you use some anti spam plugins ?
How many members do you have and to what do you estimate the amount of spammers in regard of them ?
Have you inactive users in the list ?
Are you on a MS or single install ?
Maybe you could also blacklist some words from updates publication.
@danbp
Dear Danbp, as you suggested I opened the ticket, and I read the teplies here https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2992
I am sorry, but I am not an expert and I did not understand what they are saying.
1) they have noticed that the problem I was speaking was “real”, exists. Right?
2) Somebody found a solution? Right?
3) What’s the solution? I have to modify the code? Or an update of bbpress will be available with this adjustment?
Thanks for explaining.
You’re refering to a premium add-on for witch only people who buyed the licence have access. You’ve better to ask on their support or at MyCred forum.
Personally i use Buddypress Social on SWA and Simple Share Buttons Adder for the blogs (multisite install).
