BuddyPress.org

Pretty sure your WordPress members have to post after BuddyPress has been installed, or they don’t show up as BuddyPress members 🙁 I’m currently looking into this as well, to see if any updates have remedied this. It’s very confusing to my members when they click the BuddyPress members link and everyone isn’t there. Some of my members keep in contact even if it isn’t through my site. It’s really not a true integration with WordPress set up this way, so I hope it’s been updated.

Can you post some information about your install?

• Active theme
• Plugins activated
• BuddyPress version
• WordPress version

Thanks!

Have you taken a look at

It may give you some ideas of how to proceed.

Thanks a lot @berkelmudez!!

Accidentally I noticed that activation emails were not being sent. And neither were notification emails, like when receiving a private message. Switched to Postman and all was sweet again.

WordPress 4.4.2
BuddyPress 2.5.2
bbPress 2.5.8

update2: found shane’s answer here:

…and got it to work to only show a single role, which covers about half the users I want to show. I don’t really understand array syntax, but am now neck-deep in the new “role__in” thing in 4.4

…and finally got it to work, after finding https://gist.github.com/sbrajesh/2142009 (the most recent comment is key, bringing in “role__in”

Hi,

I just had a similar problem problem where emails were working perfectly from WordPress and BB press but not from Buddypress for some reason even tho my SMTP plugins were working.

It turned out that the SMTP plugins I were using weren’t applying the configuration on Buddypress emails for some reason. The plugins that did not work for me were:Configure SMTP, Easy WP SMTP, WP-Mail-SMTP.

The plugin for me that did succeed in setting the smtp for buddypress email notifications was ‘Postman SMTP’. I think it might be worth a shot trying this plugin to see if it works with this plugin.
I have no idea why the other SMTP plugins didn’t work but this plugin did and it might work for you as well. Good luck

Hi,
you need to network activate, even if you have only one subsite and what ever the sub option (sub-dir or sub-domain) is.

Mostly, BP is activated on the main site.

your-site.com/ – here sit WordPress and BuddyPress and depending your options:

your-site.com/my_second_blog/ (sub-dir)
or
my_second_blog.your-site.com (sub-domain)

Installation in WordPress Multisite

Configure BuddyPress for Multisite

@redokodesign Do you know how to access raw email headers, in whatever email client you use?

If so, can you copy/paste the email headers of a WordPress email that you’ve received from the site (i.e. one that is working correctly and was sent)? Can you also share with me the “to” “from” “bcc” “cc” parts of the text that the BuddyPress email debug plugin sent you?

You can find my email address on https://profiles.wordpress.org/djpaul/

I have a suspicion this is something to do with the “from” or “reply to” properties being different for each email, but I need the data to prove this, and what SMTP plugin you are using to see how it is configuring WordPress.

@ala7lam if you go to Settings > BuddyPress you should see a check box next to Extended Profiles. If you uncheck that, the xProfile component becomes disabled. Then you can add your own custom solution (using WordPress usermeta if you wish).
