Sure!
Thanks for the ping @johnjamesjacoby. I’ve open a ticket with a patch about it. @alexmangini don’t hesitate to test it. By the way we don’t use Git but SVN for BuddyPress code. If you want to dive into BuddyPress code contribution, I advise you to read this tutorial to get started quickly 😉
I am using the most recent versions of WordPress and BuddyPress.
Hi, I’ve been searching these forums for about 4 hours now.
On my members page the background is light gray but all of the text, like the members names especially, are a real light yellow. I can not for the life of me figure out how to change those colors!
Can anyone please point me in the right direction??
THANK YOU
In your BuddyPress settings, do you have Profile Syncing turned on or off? If it’s on, it uses the WordPress registration and login.
I just tried updating to 10 on a test site (on AWS Lightsail) and I got:
Update failed: The update cannot be installed because we will be unable to copy some files. This is usually due to inconsistent file permissions.
In the php log:
PHP Warning: chmod(): Operation not permitted in /opt/bitnami/wordpress/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-direct.php on line 173
(I got five of those) I don’t have time to look into this right now. I generally don’t update plugins when the first of a major version comes up. But the bottom line is that I wasn’t able to try it.
Hi everyone,
I am using the latest version of WordPress and tried Buddypress 9.2 and 10.0, but both gave the same trouble.
When I’m testing my register form, I don’t get redirected to the page which tells you to check your mail. It refreshes and the password field is empty.
Can someone help me?
I tried to deactivate all of the other plugins and I tried a different theme. Both didn’t work.
You can create a subdomain and set up a WordPress website there
possible to move buddypress plugin off WordPress?
Hi is it possible to remove buddypress plugin off WordPress?
HI, I hope someone can help me. I have bbpress for our Forum which has bbPress Digest (https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-digest/). The plug-in works great but we had to get BuddyPress in order to edit our user profiles. The combo of both is great, but we don’t want to have a group email digest, we want our clients to be able to change it individually like we can with bbPress Digest. I can’t find a way to show the bbPress Digest options (which is edited in the WordPress user profile.) Can someone help with either a solution or potentially look at our setup and suggest a solution?
Hi @pierremaitre
Even if you haven’t disabled the new Widget block editor or are not using the Classic Widget plugin, you can keep BP Legacy widgets using a specific filter, I advise you to read this developer note: https://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2022/01/16/legacy-widgets-in-buddypress-10-0-0/
If I understand what you’re asking, you should be able to add profile fields in the WordPress Dashboard under Users->Profile Fields. As long as you set “Visibility” to Everyone, then I believe that Buddypress will display those fields in the person’s profile.
Thanks, but are you answering the question in the subject line, or the question in the body?
Do my existing WordPress users automatically become BuddyPress users?
@mikegillihan thanks for the tip. A default install of the latest WordPress, bbPress and BuddyPress has this issue, still.
I was having the same issue; likely reason was my SEO plugin (Yoast SEO) only runs wp_get_user_contact_methods() in wp-admin. I re-registered the contact methods, and the BuddyPress-WordPress Text Fields now save the user contact data.
Hi @vapvarun, below is the error info that I copied from the fatal crash email. Hope it is helpful.

Mass Messaging in BuddyPress
Hi @vapvarun. Thanks for your suggestion. I have tried the plugin you suggested. There is another plugin (BuddyPress Activity Shortcode) I have also tried. But both plugins crashed my site upon activation. I have to remove them in safe mode.
Hi!
I am trying to create a shortcode to place the activity loop in a new page, so I can customize and highlight some activities. To start, I inserted the standard loop inside a shortcode function (code as below). But the standard loop failed to show. Just to ensure that my shortcode is ok, I just inserted a “testing 123” text to check.
FYI, I am using BuddyX theme (WordPress version 5.8.3). I test the code below in functions.php before place it into Code Snippets plugin. Currently, the code is still inside functions.php.
I placed the shortcode ([mkp_activity]) in a page (link to the page as below). I also try to place the shortcode in widget area. But the loop just did not appear.
Test Page
function mkp_bp_activity_shortcode() {
$message = 'testing 123';
return $message;
if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( 'activity' ) ) ) :
while ( bp_activities() ) : bp_the_activity();
locate_template( array( 'activity/entry.php' ), true, false );
endwhile;
endif;
}
add_shortcode('mkp_activity', 'mkp_bp_activity_shortcode');
I am new to this. I am not sure if I am doing this completely wrong. Appreciate any advice. Thanks!
Regards,
CK
I remember seeing on my wordpress dashboard, under the budypress plugin a link so i could bypass the login page and redirect me to the wp-admin login page… can someone help me qith this? i can’t login!!
my website: https://cbppintranet.com/
HELP!!!!
@niccrockett – thanks for pointing this out!
I had never seen or noticed ‘“Activity auto-refresh” under Options in BuddyPress’ settings’
I really hope some kind of slider for seconds.milliseconds can be added to the bp options!
One of my hosts demanded that I add the ‘heartbeat control’ plugin from wp-rocket (free in the wp-repo: https://wordpress.org/plugins/heartbeat-control/ ) in order to keep my wordpress requests down – maybe this can help you in the short term(?)
I found that having two tabs open with 8 wordpress sites being updated on same server was hammering it with requests from all 16 tabs every so many seconds or whatever – the admin-ajax ddosed my own server account and I did not realize it was a thing.
surely some kind of javascript timer could pop up a button /tap to refresh/ kind of thing or something? and then the automated refresh can be turned off.. I’d like that.. think I’m gonna turn it off anyway.
Since this is months old, I’ve already settled back then with the plugin “BuddyPress to WordPress Full Sync” which allows me to sync any arbitary xProfile fields to WordPress fields.
@imath I can confirm by now this works as expected when following your steps. Without being able to verify anymore what my problem was back then, I have a feeling this must have been related to validation as sometimes BuddyPress provides zero feedback when something was wrong. In my current WordPress version (5.8.3), the Twitter field is expected to be a simple username (not full URL / @), other fields like Instagram are expected to be the full URL. So perhaps the issue was that some fields didn’t match validation criteria, so BuddyPress just silently swallowed the input?
Cheers
when filling out register form it just refreshes the page – seems to fail with no error message I can see.
How would I find out what is happening in the browser and on the server to debug?
tried with turning off plugins and back to default theme,
also did the list of things to check from here:
(
– check the WordPress settings allows account to be created (Anyone can register checkbox needs to be active) See: wordpress.org/support/article/settings-general-screen/#membership
– check your permalink settings are using one of the pretty permalink options (not plain), see this documentation page wordpress.org/support/article/using-permalinks/#mod_rewrite-pretty-permalinks
– check the activate and register actions are associated with a public WordPress page. You can find some inputs about it from this documentation page : codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-components/#settings-buddypress-pages
NB: the registration and activation pages are only displayed to users who are not logged in,
)
