Hi @ch1n3s3b0y

Do you mean create a new custom taxonomy called users and then each time a user registers, you want a new term to be created?

If so then check out these resources:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies

You’ll need to use register_taxonomy() to create your new taxonomy (see here)

To insert a new term you can use wp_insert_term() (see here)

When you come to write your function, hook it to the bp_core_signup_user action.

I’m not sure, but it sounds like your line of thought is valid. Using a cookie for this seems a bit weird, but hey, that’s how it’s been implemented at the moment. 🙂

If when you finish working through things, you still think you’re onto a bug with the missing cookie idea, please would you submit an explanation of the issue over on our bug tracker at https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket ?

To my knowledge, this isn’t built in to the current template hierarchy.

You could open a ticket on Trac requesting the enhancement (try searching open tickets first to make sure it isn’t already planned).

Default BP does allow to see other users’ Favorits in the Favorit tab in Profile page – why does Buddyboss kills this? At least site admin should be able to turn it on or off.

I see what you mean. We will consider adding an admin option.

Buddyboss is never meant to load every plugin but if a chosen few are bundled, it will be really good rather than re-inventing wheels at premium plugins, features of which are already available in the WP-BP repo. If users like us see thay they are well integrated into the Buddyboss look and feel there can be more sales of the Buddyboss theme actually.

I appreciate all of the feedback, very much. Our plan is to expand on these plugins and make them more feature rich, launch more premium plugins and themes, and also free plugins for the community over the year.

We launched two free plugins this week which you may be interested in:

Search all BP components in one unified dropdown:

Edit BP activity from the front-end:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-edit-activity/

The password field belongs to WordPress, so you could probably try to apply this trick.

I think I’ve noticed this in the past as well.

@serendipitycss3 thank you for reporting the issue. In the meantime, please go to this page https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=buddypress

Thanks for testing, @chubbycrow.

Going to ping @mercime for input here as she recently made changes to the avatars in widgets.

mercime – Okay to revert line 1558 from changeset 9341?
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/9341

Or was there a reason for the 40px declaration?

Hi @caldwellysr,

Thanks for testing the 2.2-beta.

There was a bug concerning xProfile fields, which should be addressed in:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/9345

If you feel comfortable removing the lines referenced in bp-core/bp-core-template.php, please do so and retest.

Thanks again for testing!

Regarding the $wpdb object, take a look here for more info:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/wpdb#Using_the_.24wpdb_Object

current_user_can() uses wp_get_current_user(). Looking at the function reference for that function, I noticed “Use the init or any subsequent action to call this function”. Take a look at the Action Reference article for the list of actions run during a typical page request. The action you use will depend on what exactly you’re doing but it looks as though the earliest available when using current_user_can() is init

Hope this helps 🙂

@charlesmabe Testing data

BP – I use this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-default-data/

bbPress – download the Sample Data https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2516 and use WP importer

@juliantrueflynn
Might also look into – https://wordpress.org/plugins/unconfirmed/

I have used that to resend activations, the plugin description says it can “deleting their pending registrations,” – but not sure if that means is removes them from the database or whatever.. I have not tried using it in that manner. This plugin might also limit the amount of users you can mess with to 20 or 40 at a time – so it may be too tedious to do what you need anyhow. Haven’t played with it a while, and not sure if it’s been updated to add new functions since I used.

Others finding this thread may benefit from that plugin, or not – just a thought.

Yeah, see here for details of the wp_signups table.

The theme details for that theme say:
rtMedia Ready – Add albums, photo, audio/video encoding, privacy, sharing, front-end uploads & more.

I would bet that for the media tab functions of that to work, you would need to install the rtmedia plugin
( https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-media/ )

Of course I don’t win every bet – and don’t bet often – just a thought you might try..

hi @snarkypuppet,

for inspiration a concrete example:
https://github.com/Ipstenu/register-ip-multisite/blob/master/register-ip.php

Search WP reference for more details:

Reference

Could be server related.

I had the same issue with one theme on one server (same theme worked perfectly on local installs and on other servers) though comments and activity posting were disabled. javacripts were not loading on one particular server for this particular theme.

The solution, provided by the theme developer, that worked for me (for that problem, which may not be yours, so may not be your solution) was to put the function below in functions.php

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'load_buddypress_js'  );
function load_buddypress_js () {
	if (bp_is_group() || is_page( 'activity' )) {
		wp_enqueue_script('buddypress_query',plugins_url() . '/buddypress/bp-core/js/jquery-query.min.js',array("jquery"));
		wp_enqueue_script('buddypress_members',plugins_url() . '/buddypress/bp-core/js/widget-members.min.js',array("jquery"));
		wp_enqueue_script('buddypress_cookie',plugins_url() . '/buddypress/bp-core/js/jquery-cookie.min.js',array("jquery"));
		wp_enqueue_script('buddypress_scroll',plugins_url() . '/buddypress/bp-core/deprecated/js/jquery-scroll-to.min.js',array("jquery"));
		wp_enqueue_script('buddypress_js',get_template_directory_uri() . '/buddypress/js/buddypress.min.js',array("jquery"));
		wp_enqueue_script( 'heartbeat_js', get_template_directory_uri() . '/wp-includes/js/heartbeat.min.js', array(), '4.1', true );
	}
}

The last item, heartbeat.min.js, is a core wp file from the /wp-includes/js/ folder which this server, specialising in WordPress, was apparently, unilaterally and undeclared, refusing to load!!!!

Hi @wuvu2

This is more related to WordPress than it is to BuddyPress. Try asking your question over at https://wordpress.org/ where you may get more joy

http://demo.rtcamp.com/rtmedia/members/admin/
They have some themes which provide this. You can also make a request here https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ to incorporate this as all social nets and social scripts are having this feature these days.

Hi @nunolopes99

I’m not aware of anything like this available but Custom Header Extended is a plugin which allows users to set a header image on a per-post basis. You could use that as a starting point for ideas on how to achieve what you’re looking to do.

What info is needed

It’s hard to say with something like this as it could be something as simple as flushing your permalinks (this just involves visiting your permalinks page under Settings) or it could be a problem with your .htaccess file or an issue with how you’ve installed WordPress.

or would you recommend a fresh installation?

It depends on how easy it is to set up afresh. If you don’t have anything to lose then go ahead. Else, if you have lots of website users, and a database full of content then it might be worth looking for a solution instead.
