Thanks for testing, sharmavishal.

I’ve created a ticket here with a potential fix for the first two things:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5537

I can’t duplicate the third issue.

This is claimed as fixed, though I am using the most updated version of buddypress and still having the same problem. Do I have to pull from the trunk to get the truly most updated version or do y’all push it to the wordpress plugin repo?

Thanks for the tip, tajenli.

Did you install any social plugin? I guess not..else you would have known that the login with buttons are created automatically by the plugin…try the following social login plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-social-login/

Regarding your main idea..you would need to do some custom stuff for that…as far as approval of users go use the following plugin…

googling really helps though

It looks like the $group_id is not passed along to the display() method in the same way as it is to the other display methods. That means you’ll need to implement your own technique to get that value. Try this:

function display() {
    $group_id = bp_get_current_group_id();
    $setting = groups_get_groupmeta( $group_id, 'whatever' );
    var_dump( $setting );
}

I do think that you *ought* to be able to get the $group_id inside of display() like you can in settings_screen() etc. I’ve opened a ticket for that, which we’ll fix for 2.1. https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5533#ticket

Hi @vikashwordpress

I just want to know that where is the actual add_action(…) and the function for this action is written, i have searched lot of files in buddypress but could not get it? can any one help ?

Which tag are you referring to? You mention do_action(“…”) in your question but this doesn’t tell us the tag. Perhaps see here for info on the do_action hook: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/do_action

There are lots of social login and registration plugins in the WP plugin repo:

Questions and installations like this are becoming more common, and we have a loose plan on how to include provisions for this into BuddyPress core. Right now, you’ll end up needing a few extra plugins (and a little bit of on the job education) to make both WordPress and BuddyPress play exactly the way you need them to, but rest assured that both WP and BP do have the ability baked in to manipulate where things live and how they work together.

A few plugins to investigate:

• WP Multi Network
• BP Multi Network

They’ll let you have disparate BuddyPress networks rotating around one central user-base and logins. From there, you can see how these plugins work, and tweak your integration to suit your needs.

Also happy to try and guide you further as you need more specific code snippets to solve specific problems.

Trust me… btw… if I can find a different program than BuddyPress… I will use a different program than BuddyPress with my WordPress site… because of this.

I hope there is a different program that will work well with WordPress… cuz I don’t want to use this program now.

The BuddyPress Like plugin does that:

Fantastic plugin…. works superbly!

@deanwenick

No problem. Unfortunately the last 2 updates have not fixed the issue yet. Hopefully soon, but I am looking at other alternatives also.

I would encourage you and anyone else having problems to make a reply here. Maybe they do not understand how many sites it is really causing problems with.

I just found one plugin “Invite Anyone” that allows group admin\moderator to invite any site users to the group. This plugin also allows you to invite people to join the site & group(s) through email.

This is what I was looking for!

I am not sure if this will work but you can visit yoursite/wordpress/wp-admin/network/admin.php?page=bp-tools and try “Repair user “last activity” data”

Have you tried the WangGuard plugin? It’s supposed to be good stopping spam registrations.
