From developer of Stop Spammers:
2/21/2014: I am ending support of this plugin. I will be asking WordPress to remove it from the Repository as it causes too many problems.

Above plugin is the only plugin you will ever require to stop spam. Donate to plugin author if it stops spam on your site to keep the plugin alive

Is there a way to edit home.php file that’s in the bp-legacy/buddypress/members/singles folder so that the navigation links Activty, Profile, Notifications, Messages, etc links only show for specific user roles. I have custom roles set up already, and for one of the roles I want to hide those links.
Using wordpress 3.8.1 and BP 1.9.2
Thanks, Sheri
Of course you can change these tab labels.
Read here and here for general information.
It’s possible that the problem comes from your theme or a plugin. You have to debug…:evil:
First thing to check is the content of your language folder.
Normally buddypress-xx_XX.mo/po files are in wp-content/languages/
See also if you have a “plugin” folder in “languages”. Maybe you have a second buddypress-xx_XX.mo in it. In this case, it is this file who has priority over the other. If you have a custom translation, you have to place it in this folder anyway.
Second thing to check are the theme/(possible)plugin translation vs. BP translation.
FYI, since BP 2.0, WP/BP/bbP translations are automatically updated from Translate WordPress (Glotpress), but you have to ensure that you have the correct version. Simply open the .po file with a text editor like notepad++ and read the header content.
If the above debuging process have no result, here’s a good solution by Alex (@viper007bond) to “force” a translation or customizing an existing.
Successfully tested on BP 2.01 ! 😉
https://wordpress.org/plugins/activate-users-in-buddypress
basically you need to get the Last Activity field set for this users manually.
Im using the newest WordPress 3.9.1 and newest Buddypress 2.0.1 version.
The “Multi Select Box” doesn’t work. It doesn’t save multi selected fields.
When I’m adding under Users > Profile Fields
the Field Type “Multi Select Box” it doesn’t work as it should.
When I’m trying to select in the users profile some values, it is always just saving the first selected value.
Does anyone know how to fix that?
Thanks
Greetings,
I have been out of the BuddyPress dev loop for a year or 2 now and just doing the updates and thought all was good.
I was using in bp-custom:
define( ‘BP_MEMBERS_SLUG’, ‘clients’ );
define ( ‘BP_BLOGS_SLUG’, ‘sites’ );
define( ‘BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT’, ‘sites’ );
Today I noticed that /clients/persons-name and /sites get a 404
/clients works but the persons profile link gets a 404
/sites gets a 404
If I comment out the “define”s I still get 404’s
/members works but the persons profile link gets a 404
/blogs gets a 404
I also renamed /members and /blogs in my theme directory, still 404s
Any tips on where I can start to troubleshoot this?
I have been using BuddyPress since its inception and know alot of database things have changed. Does something maybe need to be purged in my database? I remember years ago I had to delete x_profile stuff or something like that when that change happened.
I have no idea when the members profiles and blogs page stopped working because I just use these for myself.
I really wish I could go over to BuddyCamp this weekend but can’t(I was at the first WordCamp/BarCamp and the next 3 WordCamps)
Cheerz to Boone and John, BuddyPress rocks!
WordPress 3.9.1
BuddyPress 2.0.1
@robertnorcross Just to let you know I am just learning to figure so of these out. So this is what I think I understand it works:
multisite install by default allows users to login with same info.
you may also want to post over on wordpress support forum for multisite.
I was reading so article & now don’t remember that subscriber on multisite don’t automatically become members which confuse me know.
I am pretty sure there is probably login redirect plugin but haven’t used any to recommend.
I am also unfamiliar with commerce sites but do you want to redirect someone before they complete their purchase to buddypress.
I think multisite forum may be could more helpful and to be honest I thinking of just going back to single installs & migrate later. I have multiple sites like you too with various focused it has been challenge wrapping my head around it all.
Hi there,
I updated my WordPress from WordPress 3.9 to WordPress 3.9.1 and in the admin panel under menus the BuddyPress sections isn’t there.
Any idea what to do?
For reference this bug has been confirmed and is being tracked here : https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5626
This plugin, though not updated for a very LONG time, still works.
Might be a LITTLE help in the ongoing battle against spam!
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/buddypress-humanity
Security question/answer can produce a text-string, not just a sum, answer.
Yes, the above is a rather awkward solution.
Just occurred to me that you could extract the info you need from the $settings_link arg passed by the $email_content filter hook to further query the database and/or rebuild $email_content – and so avoid filtering wp_mail
I think it would be a reasonable request that the
$email_content filter hook in messages_notification_new_message include $ud.
It’s a simple change, so please submit an enhancement ticket:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/
[ We may find out that there is an existing and simple solution ! ]
>adding the two on the end is useless
You can’t add new args to an apply_filters call.
You might try using the first filter in wp_mail()
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.9.1/src/wp-includes/pluggable.php#L225
And then use the ‘to’ value to query the database directly to retrieve the recip’s username.
Look at https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/wpdb, in particular $wpdb->get_var
Then you can rebuild ‘message’.
Of course the add_filter function needs a conditional check so that you don’t mess with other wp-mail calls.
I do something like:
-use one of the filters in function messages_notification_new_message to add a keyword
-check for that keyword in your filter function for wp_mail()
btw- wp_mail is pluggable, so you can overload it with your own function, but that shouldn’t be necessary.
i think its more due to the fact that nobody is talking about ning anymore their system isn’t very open technically speaking. for instance when i do a google search for ‘social network in a box’ or ‘social network software’ there are many references to buddypress in the results but none for ning. i know when i was looking at ning in 2010 coincidentally enough i decided their lack of customer service and locked in system weren’t a good way to go for our network. in fact ning isn’t even listed in the wikipedia list of social networking software options:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_social_networking_software
although maybe because it’s a platform and not really software you can install.
one more thing i would add is that a lot of the really popular dedicated buddypress plugins are now wordpress plugins as well so they may not really show up as buddypress only plugins anymore.
Hi theaquaponicsource
There’s quite a lot of development activity going on right now with BP “under the hood” so to speak. Have a read of this blog post which announces the recent release of BP 2.0:
BuddyPress 2.0 “Juliana”
And keep in mind many of the WP plugins in the WordPress plugin repo work solidly on BP, you don’t necessarily need to use ‘BP plugins’ only:

Hi all,
I’m using BuddyPress for my website http://www.starry-night.nl.
Starry-Night.nl is a customised buddyboss theme site with the activity page set as home page. This is also the problem with the wordpress search. WordPress Search only searches the activity page (only that context) and not the entire site/db. Searching from let’s say a wordpress page redirects to the activity wall.
Prob. a small fix but beyond me.
Best regards from the Netherlands,
Marc
ps: the search is only possible when logged in by default (wp-adminbar).
Hi Giacomo!
I added the following line to my themes functions.php:
/* Stop WordPress from auto embeds */
remove_filter( ‘the_content’, array( $GLOBALS[‘wp_embed’], ‘autoembed’ ), 8 );
…and then composed a new Buddypress Private Message with http://www.mysite.com/blah.mp4 as the text.
Now it shows [video src="http://www.mysite.com/blah.mp4" /]
instead of the actual text. It’s still trying to wrap it, but at least not autoplay now.
Hey Ben
Auto embeds are a WordPress feature: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/embeds/
You can disable them site-wide with a filter: http://wpengineer.com/2487/disable-oembed-wordpress/
Good luck!
Giacomo
I installed BuddyPress in WordPress 3.9. But its pages and widgets cannot be displayed. When I clicked on its pages, there appeared a message below. I used the server from my university. Thank you for your help.

This is all great info. One additional sugestion is using the plugin “Use Google Libraries”
https://wordpress.org/plugins/use-google-libraries/
I’m still in the developmental stages of my site, so I have no other speed optimization plugins active, but this one by itself sped up page load times by double.
Another (That I think may be a feature in some of the cacheing plugging mentioned here…) is “Scripts To Footer”.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/scripts-to-footerphp/
I’ve had a little trouble with this one because some of my scripts need to be loaded inline with the page, but it speed up visual page load time significantly. But make sure you check your site for functionality after (Google Map Plugins, ‘Fancy Box’ animation, etc.).
When I first installed BP, when in the wordpress menu builder (Appearance>Menu) it had some conditional options where I could add elements to the menu that would or would not display depending on if logged in/out.
Now these options are completely gone.
What do I do?
@bphelp
But this has nothing to do with the bp-default theme? This is a theme that is based on twitter bootstrap customized to match with a buddypress site. It also works with WordPress that has no BP enabled…
I feel that there are just a few really good themes for BuddyPress out there like BuddyBoss and recently InspireBook by rtCamp. Im looking to contribute to that list 😉
Cheers,
Aron
