Add a a new field group to profiles, call it CV, add some fields and options and you’re done.
User Extended Profiles
As you certainly want to get this part a bit apart of the other profile fields, you can also use this plugin who brings a nice tabbed profile page.
Group Extension API only works for groups. Andrew is asking about member navigation.
There is currently no member extension API.
Check out the bp_core_new_nav_item() and bp_core_new_subnav_item() functions in bp-core/bp-core-buddybar.php:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.6.0-rc1/src/bp-core/bp-core-buddybar.php?marks=15-38,369-399#L15
You’d want to register your navs on the 'bp_setup_nav' hook.
eg.
function my_custom_bp_nav() {
// Fill this in from the documentation.
$nav_args = array();
// Add nav.
bp_core_new_nav_item( $nav_args );
// If you need to add another nav, copy and paste the block above and paste here.
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'my_custom_bp_nav' );
Check out this older example on the codex as well:
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/function-examples/core/bp_core_new_nav_item/
Depending on your requirements, you could also use the BP Skeleton Component:
https://github.com/boonebgorges/buddypress-skeleton-component
However, that might be too much for what you need.
if it helps following non bp errors with rc1

@werose- thank you for your reply.
you say about facebook api plugin?
https://wordpress.org/plugins/facebook-api/
but i think this help only in send, share, follow, like button, comments etc…
can we make signup process like facebook using this plugin?
Hi,
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6772
I understand that the next version had a preview of the URL That Is shared and shows up on BuddyPress activity
I tested but I see very different results (a title with HTML layout, an url ..)
but no display with the first picture (much like Facebook) !!
notification not working on blog posts.
It’s not implemented. See why on #4046
But you can eventually try the one or other plugin actually available on WP repository.
Particulary Mentionable, Email Mentioned or Mention comment’s Authors
go to pull requests
https://github.com/ddean4040/BP-Group-Hierarchy/pulls
exampe: check christianwach request…you would get the files he would have modified….
you can see the latest one would be for BuddyPress 2.6 which would release soon…
dont think so this would be merged in bp…the moderators would have better idea on this…but BP Group types is comming in BuddyPress 2.6..just wait for that if that would meet your requirements cause that would be in the core of bp…

Hi,
I have a problem. Strangly enough i used to be able to private message anyone but now it doesnlt work. That is that i can not select a user to send a private message to. I can type a name with or without the @ sign but nothing happens. It works only if you go to a users profile and click on the “send private message” button.
Any Ideas anyone?
Hope you can help me. Website is https://lounge.azie-expert.nl

BuddyPress 2.5.0 Beta 1 is now available for testing. You can download the 2.6.0-rc1 zip or get a copy via our Subversion repository. We’d love to have your feedback and testing help.
Read more about the beta here: https://buddypress.org/2016/06/buddypress-2-6-0-beta-1/
Thanks for your testing help!

Please do not report issues in this thread. Create a new topic and tag with 2.6.0.
It’s apparently related to rtMedia. Ask on their support.
rtMedia was updated 2 days ago, perhaps something went wrong ?
Whatever, you have to debug now.
It’s a common issue but not directly related to BuddyPress. Some ideas and hints here.
More info, the issue of Error 500 is only for Administrators.
Everybody below this WordPress level has no problems at all accessing the /wp-admin/ area.
Ideas are welcome! 🙂
@danbp I mean the page where all the @mentions for the user are listed like this one:https://mercime.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/activity-mentions.jpg
Hi Guys,
BuddyPress v2.5.3
Wordpress v4.5.2
My own theme created with Artisteer
Getting blank notifications for every user. Seems to happen when something is triggered (ie: user is mentioned in the activity wall or something else).
Never used to happen, can only assume an update has caused it.
Has anyone else had this? Is there a log file I can check to see what’s going on?
Thanks
Hello,
I am having an Error 500 while activating Buddypress.
I know that this topic has been talked before, but the issue here is that I have 512M for the wordpress to use. So it is not the memory.
The PHP.ini tells that there is 512M and I used these two lines in config.php.
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');
define('WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '512M');
I had Buddypress working perfectly. In fact, I had problems with bbPress but not with Buddypress.
Everything was working perfectly and I deactivated all plugins to activate them one by one after I deleted two or three.
I first activate Buddypress and BOOM, Error 500.
I don’t get it. I can activate everything except Buddypress.
Any help? Thanks!
Juan
solved it.
hopefully someone from wordpres.org helped me.
here is the link for anyone in the future faced the same problem as me.
wordpress.org page
the answer was:
If you want to add some user meta info in user database while registration you need to use “user_register” filter like below code:Add code in your themes function.php file
add_action( 'user_register', 'my_user_meta_save', 10, 1 );
function my_user_meta_save( $user_id ) {
if ( isset( $_POST['first_name'] ) )
update_user_meta($user_id, 'first_name', $_POST['first_name']);
}
I am new to BP I have version BP 2.5.3 and WP 4.5.2. I love PB registration form that is simple and redirect new member to the email for activation. simple and efficient. I have a question regarding the registration form
How can I move the ” complete signup” button to the left (under confirme Paswword). I have members saying it is hard to see way to the right on large screens.(or making it with an orange background?)
I am not a programmer so I do not know PHP (but I know how to copy paste !!!!! 🙂
If you can also mention the path for the file and also how to may be place it in my child subtheme’s folder so it does not get erased at the next update….(new to wordpress too, even at 72 there is still some learning todo!> Thanks!
I have inserted shortcode on the members pages to display BadgeOS Earned Achievments along with the data buddypress retrieves. It works when the page is loaded, but when a new sorting option or pagination is triggered the shortocde itself displays. If I refresh the page in the browser the shortcode displays properly again. Any idea what could be causing this?
for example, go here, then choose a different sorting option. http://vetsgaming.com/groups/new-recruits-1872787461/
WordPress 4.5.2
Version 2.5.2
So what you’re looking for is to use a custom user avatar instead of BuddyPress’?
Try the following code snippet in your theme’s functions.php or wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:
remove_filter( 'get_avatar', 'bp_core_fetch_avatar_filter', 10, 6 );
Update – That code snippet only reverts the avatar in WordPress posts and comments.
To override BuddyPress avatars in BuddyPress content with a custom avatar solution, you would have to hook into the 'bp_core_fetch_avatar' filter:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.5.3/src/bp-core/bp-core-avatars.php?marks=534-549#L534
@danbp,
This is not exactly what I need. Accounts are not created with buddypress or wordpress. They are created by Xenforo. This creates an account in wordpress, and also imports the users avatar correctly in wordpress. so it is a valid wp account with user avatar. I’d like Buddypress to use the wordpress avatar. Is this possible?
Thanks!
M
