BuddyPress.org

Same issue here! Does nobody knows how to calculate the buddypress avatar’s filename? I need to access the avatars’s urls to show in an external non-wordpress website the members!
Waiting..

Hello,
I’ve got again a problem with the Logon. Not always, but more often is me when I try to log on a white page displays the following:

Error 403 blocked. blocked. Guru Meditation: XID: 2439522794 Varnish cache server

About http://schwimmbad.so/wp-admin/edit.php (after a lot of reading found on the net) I can log in normally. If I then log out and gone through the normal registration is the problem for a while and eventually the problem comes back. Whether I log in as admin or as normal user.

I’m using the latest wordpress with buddy press, bbpress and some other plugins.

CAN SOMEONE HELP ME DA?
A Thanks for your answers in advance.

You could use the WordPress conditional is_page() to check if the user is on the activity or members page:

if ( is_page('members') || is_page('activity') ) {

} else {

}

Note: I’m assuming you haven’t changed the default slugs

It is easily done. You’d need to create a new page template:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Page_Templates

You can then use a modified members loop inside the page template you create:

Members Loop

You probably can consider this plugin as usefull:

Please do not make duplicate topics that regards the same subject matter as it clutters the forum. @mercime and @modemlooper has already responded on the first topic here:

If their suggestions doesn’t work the only options you have is build this functionality yourself or hire a developer to do it for you. You may want to post on the jobs board:

Good luck!

@bphelp,

Of course if your try the plugin in buddypress child theme other than the default will not work fine beceause the plugin use the default buddypress template !

the plugin work with all wordpress themes if the theme use legacy buddypress theme,
if it is child theme, in this case you must customize the plugin templates by modifying the template files. Just copy buddypress-wall\includes\templates\bp-default folder to your theme and edit the templates.

A lot of Buddypress plugins present a template and suggest a customisation if the theme is buddypress child themes.

Which premium plugin did you find?

To make uploading an avatar a requirement you’d have to have an upload form on the registration page. This used to happen in BuddyPress. Some discussion on it in this thread:

@ubernaut and is WordPress or WordPress Multisite?

Hi @ubernaut

What WordPress and BuddyPress version do you use?

The reported users are listed in our DEV installations.

If you mean activity comments…

$bp_location = bp_get_profile_field_data( 'field=Location&user_id=' . bp_get_activity_comment_user_id() );
echo $bp_location;

If you mean post comments, I think you need to create a custom comment display.
Example: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_list_comments#Comments_Only_With_A_Custom_Comment_Display

Disabling usernames sitewide sounds like a huge task to me. BuddyPress needs a unique identifier to use in URLs. Have you thought about providing your members with the ability to change their username?

BuddyPress Username Changer

You’d just need to send a global message to all members letting them know how they can update their username.

I’m pretty certain there is no way to avoid them having a username, although in principle you could auto-generate a string of random characters that they never see.

I’m not familiar with the wordpress.com sign-up, but you could always pretty-please the Jetpack people to see if they will port it across to wordpress.org.

Or look at the various social networking plug-ins. Social Login allows “your visitors to comment, log-in and register with their social network accounts” and works with WordPress and BuddyPress.

If you want something more specific, then you may have to contract a developer to do it for you (then release it as a public plug-in!).

WordPress requires a username which, once set, cannot be changed. People change email addresses, so an email address as username is not permitted.

You can, though, use a plug-in called Email Login which lets users log in with their email address, so that they can use a username to register but then forget it and user their email address to access the site.

Try my trick instead. Tested and works! Get the code here:
Redirect Logged Out Visitors To Register, And Logged In Users To Profile Using A Dummy Page

@shanebp,

Thanks for your snippet which works great with standard buddypress message system but did not work if using BP Profile Message UX plugin, is there anyway to make it work please
