You can create a multitype form with html and process it with PHP, or an existing WordPress function.

You would need to modify the database to store your file upload paths also.
Sounds like you’re using a theme that’s stopping this or when you publish a post you have it set to private.
It’s more for WordPress forums given posts are a WordPress feature and not a BuddyPress one.
Look at your theme files, index.php and look for anything that looks like it’s making those posts only accessible to logged in users. Something like is_user_logged_in().
Hi !
I’m asking if it’s possible to set wordpress posts publics and visible by anyone ? Event the non logged-in users.
I have a public blog in my site but posts are actually not accessible, thx !:)
WordPress 4.3.5
BuddyPress 2.6.1.1
Issue happens with all themes, including default.
Emails are not sending when a user registers, but if I go into wordpress users and resent email then it does it.
Tried two “test email” plugins so far and both work.
Any idea what it could be?
You’d have to add a custom “Print” button in your template. Or perhaps you could use a WordPress plugin.
If you go the custom code route, here’s an article that might help:

The login page is not handled by BuddyPress.
Please post your issue on the WordPress support forums:
Support Forums
It’s most likely a plugin conflict somewhere.
When I open my website on my mobile the login page(wp-login.php) doesn’t show. How to solve?

Hello, I am new to WordPress and BuddyPress and worried about safety, then wanted to know if it is common to find plugins that share data / stealing / etc, and how to find it. In particular was doubt in a plugin, BuddyPress Follow (https://br.wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-followers/)
BuddyPress registration page is quite big, it has a lot of inputs.
You can install a widget, called (BuddyPress) Log in. Here is info about it.
If you use Jetpack, there is a module there, that gives ability to define widgets visibility. Here are other plugins: one, two & etc.
Thus you will have ability to define, that this widget should be displayed only on Registration page in sidebar (or any widget zone that is defined in your theme).
Or you can manually edit BuddyPress template files and include a shortcode or PHP code to display a login form in any place of your registration page. See docs for that.
There is a project re new templates. You can join the effort. More info…
@tutorbe @mongmuon @kinstahosting – Thanks for testing on HHVM. I’ve confirmed the bug and have a patch ready:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/7197/7197.01.patch
Please test and let me know if it works for you.
May be a forgotten custom function in child theme or bp-custom.php ? May be a role or a membership plugin ? Who knows ?
You have to debug !
Hi all. I’ve been using WordPress for quite a while now and thought it would be a good idea to migrate an existing site made using CakePHP 2.x to WP. To copy the old site’s look, a friend and I used underscores.me to create the theme, and so far it’s looking even better than the original site.
I stumbled upon BuddyPress and thought it would be good to use its features on the new site, but upon plugin activation, none of BP’s pages work. I can confirm that it’s a theme issue, because if I switch to Twenty Sixteen the members, activity, etc. pages work, so I would like to know the proper, most current steps (as detailed/handheld as possible) to add compatibility to my theme. I’ve searched, but frankly, I don’t know where to begin.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Thanks for the reply @danbp
I have not built the site and I also have very little technical and coding knowledge (sorry!) I will update WordPress later but wasn’t sure how to back everything up?
There is a lot of plugins installed:Admin Menu Editor, Advanced Custom Fields,Advanced Custom Fields PRO, bbPress,BuddyPress, DropBox Folder Share, Easy FancyBox, Gravity Forms, Gravity Forms + Custom Post Types, Gravity Forms CSS Ready Class Selector, Gravity Forms Remove Entries, jonradio Multiple Themes, Login Security, Members, No Page Comment, OPcache Dashboard,Page Specific Menu Items, PHP Code For Posts, Post Types Order, Social Media Feather, Styles with Shortcodes for WordPress,
TAO Schedule Update, WordPress Importer, WP Google Maps, WP Google Maps – Pro Add-on, wp_mail return-path
Are any of these know to conflict with BuddyPress?
Not sure on the custom functions as far as I know… I’m not confident enough to debug and the site it is also live so not sure what to do?
Think I will update WordPress then disable all plugins except BuddyPress and try on a twenty theme but if that doesn’t work, which seems like the case in other past posts, I’m not sure need help!
Thanks again
@intothemythica,
guess you have to follow instructions belonging to the actual WP/BP version… Haven’t you seen this notice ?
***The following pertains to administrators using WordPress 3.0 in network mode)***
BP should be on the same site where WP is installed.
Follow Codex from here and note that:
One site of the Network
C. BuddyPress Activated in Main Site only
D. BuddyPress Activated in Secondary Site only
Posts, comments, or activities of the users in sites other than where you activated BuddyPress won’t be recorded in the Activity Streams when you install BuddyPress in only one site of the network.
Installation in WordPress Multisite
well, I did that already. The original pic is a jpg taken with a proper DSLR. But doing the same crop via buddypress and my image editing programme makes a notable difference, it’s set to 72 dpi when editing. Not sure what compression buddypress uses (0.9 or lower?) when storing the image but it seems bad. It seems worse compared to ste crop wordpress does when uploading pics. And to make it worse, the buddypress crop file size is larger compared to doing the same crop with the image editing programme – and that with lower quality. I’m devastated.
Add this snippet to bp-custom.php and comment/remove what you don’t need
function bpex_admin_bar_remove() {
global $wp_admin_bar;
// Remove the whole WP logo menu
// $wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'wp-logo' );
// remove only About BuddyPress
$wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'bp-about' );
// remove only About bbPress
// $wp_admin_bar->remove_node( 'bbp-about' );
}
add_action( 'wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'bpex_admin_bar_remove' );

I am having this issue with BuddyPress 2.6.1.1 & bbPress 2.5.10 plugins installed
I have used the BuddyPress repair tool but it didn’t work?

Any ideas as this seems to be a common issue looking back through older topics
Irony is when I forgot my password to this forum it sent an email instantly!!!

Hi!
My WordPress version is : 4.5.3
My BuddyPress version is : 2.6.1.1
I have been trying to find a way to change the names / text of at least 2 BuddyPress member profile menu items.
I want to change ‘Friends’ to ‘Connections’ and ‘Groups’ to ‘Clubs’.
I tried using poedit with the latest pot file from BP 2.6 and translated all occurrences of ‘Friends’ and ‘Groups’ but it is still not working.

All translations other than profile nav items are working fine. I also tried changing the language in WordPress settings, still no avail.
Kindly help me
Many thanks
Hello!
My WordPress version is : 4.5.3
My BuddyPress version is : 2.6.1.1
Link where error is visible : https://goo.gl/yhrNBI
I have notice the following error on my site’s single activity pages.
Warning: reset() expects parameter 1 to be array, boolean given in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-template.php on line 3048
When I Googled for “/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-template.php on line 3048” I found lots of websites have this error.
Kindly help resolving this issue
Thank you
A bit different method is explained here.
Hi, I’m using Buddypress (2.6.1.1) and LearnDash (2.2.1.1) and the BuddyPress for LearnDash add-on (1.1.0.0) with WordPress (4.5.3) to create a website that allows users to learn more about certain subjects and also gives them a place where they can speak about the content that’s on the website, for this I decided to use BuddyPress since it’s Activity Feed and use of Groups seemed like a very good fit for what I was looking for.
I’m having a bit of trouble getting comments made on the LearnDash Courses appearing in the BuddyPress Activity feed, I was following this:
Post Types Activities Page
When I add:
add_post_type_support( 'sfwd-courses', 'buddypress-activity' );to bp-custom.php the creation of a new course is posted to the activity feed, however you can’t comment on it from the activity feed and comments on the Course Page don’t show on the Activity Feed.
Adding the function Customize_page_tracking_args() to my bp-custom.php also doesn’t change anything and I’m still told that “Admin has added a new item”
Activity Feed Post
Pastebin of bp-custom.php
