@ginnybee This plugin should do the trick: https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-user-account-type-lite/

In your theme, create an over-ride this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\member-header.php

Read this re over-riding files:

Have you tried wrapping it in a function and and using an action as suggested in
https://gist.github.com/r-a-y/5578432 ?

Did you find this discussion about the issue:

I am trying to do the same thing but not really getting anywhere as yet.

I use a wordpress theme called Premiumpress which has its own built in registration. When BP is active it bypasses the premiumpress registration and sits at http://www.mysite.com/register (this is a blank page)

I need it to direct to wp-login.php?action=register

Would this command in the post above disable the BP direction and revert to this?

I would be eternally grateful if anyone has any suggestion how I can keep BP enabled yet bypass the registration.

Kind Regards
Mark

it’s would realy a great plugin but i’m really stuck with it. I’m trying to access on all the ways but nothing. I’m still having errors like END DOCUEMENTS etc.. I figureout that I can access here:

where I’m having these errors:
Warning: include_once(ABSPATHWPINC/class-IXR.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mhd-01/www.farmacistionline.net/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/bpxmlrpc/bp-xmlrpc.php on line 48

Warning: include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening ‘ABSPATHWPINC/class-IXR.php’ for inclusion (include_path=’./:/usr/share/php/’) in /home/mhd-01/www.farmacistionline.net/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/bpxmlrpc/bp-xmlrpc.php on line 48

Fatal error: Class ‘IXR_Server’ not found in /home/mhd-01/www.farmacistionline.net/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/bpxmlrpc/bp-xmlrpc.php on line 57

so what and where could it be? I also have a multisite wordpress installation..

Did you ask buddyboss support about your issue?

Are you using a caching plugin like
https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/

You cannot cache everything or you will get stale pages or sections of pages.

Using a plugin like w3 total cache, you can control what is cached.

There is a plugin for this but you have to download it directly from the site (it is not in the wordpress plugin directory. At least it wasn’t via my searches).

BuddyPress Activity Comment Notifier

I can’t believe that activity notifications on comments is not a core functionality. I have submitted a feature request for this.

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5430#ticket

You can deregister the admin bar CSS and then load your own CSS.

Something like this:

function custom_remove_adminbar_inline_styles()
{
	if ( !is_admin() ) {

		remove_action( 'wp_head', 'wp_admin_bar_header' );
		remove_action( 'wp_head', '_admin_bar_bump_cb' );
                wp_enqueue_style( 'wp-adminbar-custom', get_template_directory_uri().'/css/adminbar.css', false, '1.0', 'all' );

	}
}
add_action( 'wp_head', 'custom_remove_adminbar_inline_styles', 9 );

Then in your theme you would add /css/adminbar.css and make it look however you want. You can copy the adminbar from WordPress as a starting point.

I have used Bad Behavior. It’s ok.

I found the best solution so far has been BuddyPress Security Check.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-security-check/

It knocked out the majority of spam for me, and I’ve tested many spam plugins. You’ll still get some spammers, but hopefully less.

Most spammers leave links in forums. BuddyPress could really use a method to block new users who post links pending approval.

This plugin puts users in moderation on signup:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-registration-options/

But that still requires you to manually activate everyone…

Not sure why that doesn’t work. You might want to download this plugin (which supposedly works with BuddyPress) and investigate their code to see how they’re doing it.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/embedly/

There actually is a plugin that accomplishes this (the initial request) to some extent. See:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-user-account-type-lite/

This would be a really great core feature. It would allow you to have member types with different profile data collected based on the first condition.

Some examples:

• teacher/student
• employer/applicant
• man/woman
• manager/employee
• etc.

A membership plugin is generally used to determine user roles and capabilities (and to charge users for access). All WordPress users should be automatically also BuddyPress users. One hiccup is if they have not ever logged in they may not display on the front end in the main BuddyPress members directory. I believe it only shows users if they have some activity, such as a login or register. If they predate BuddyPress activation they MAY need to do something before they appear in the Members directory, but rest assured they do have BuddyPress profiles that they can access with their existing WordPress login credentials.

I have submitted a ticket for this request

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5428#ticket

Akismet is a good plugin to have enabled. It’s free for personal websites and is completely unobtrusive:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/akismet/

But think of your fight against spam as a ‘strategy’. No single plugin will do the job. You’ll probably need to deploy a combo of plugin(s), manual moderation etc. Spammers are always changing their tactics so your strategy will need to change from time to time also.

How about using the following plugins:

1. Stop Spammers by Keith Graham
2. Captcha by BestWebSoft.

FYI: I have no relation with the plugin creators

NOTE: Just make sure you also have access to the FTP in case you you are locked out from the admin. Since I do not know what other plugins you have on your site — Some plugins are not compatible with others (e.g I used different CAPTCHA plugin and it locked me out). If you are locked out from the admin just use the ftp to DELETE or RENAME THE plugin folders to disable THE “bad plugins”

This will be the case with all themes. BuddyPress content is not included in the default WordPress search. It is a common request for people to ask for a “unified” BuddyPress search but that does not exist out of the box at this moment in time.

To get you in the right direction:

BuddyPress Global/Sitewide Unified search update for BuddyPress 1.5+

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/whats-the-best-way-to-get-a-unified-search-that-includes-all-site-content-including-blog-posts/

Did you try this plugin?

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

WordPress uses “oembed” for automatically converting pasted links into embeddable content. It does not support those two sites.

You can see the full list of supported sites here:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds

The simple answer is you will need to use their full embed code. Example:
http://verold.com/blog/2013/1/14/tutorial-embedding-your-project-on-the-web#.UwvSRvRdUTs

You would have to embed the full iframe code.
