Hi,
It’s probably due to an outdated template override in your theme. In 7.0+ we’ve fixed a duplicated ID issue that required some template pack files to be updated. We published a developer note about it on September 25: https://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2020/09/25/bp-template-packs-changes-in-version-7-0-0/
Hi @alersn,
bp_groups_get_group_types() is used into the group’s individual page header to list the group types it is assigned to. This function gets all registered group types : the ones that are created using the WP Admin screen and the ones that are registered using code. code argument of the array parameters is used to only get group types registered by code to make sure they can’t be deleted from the WP Admin Screen. BTW It’s not used into the Groups directory.
I’ve tested the “BuddyPress Create Group Type” plugin in BuddyPress 7.0.0. I confirm I’m able to set the Group Types of a Group during its creation process. It’s important to make it possible when adding a Group Type from the WP Admin Screen BuddyPress introduced in 7.0.0 activating the “Show on Group creation” checkbox. See the below screen capture.
Of course, you won’t get the tabs the “BuddyPress Create Group Type” as it uses another way to store the Group Type properties.
That being said without using this plugin Admin UI, you can still enjoy these tabs with some custom code. Here’s a Gist containing the one I’ve used from a bp-custom.php file.
WordPress version 5.6
BuddyPress version 7.0.0
Gravity Forms version 2.4.21 with Advanced Post Creation add-on
Avada Theme
http://www.mgroupcorp.com
This site is using gravity forms to feed into an intranet posting feature, and they want to be able to tag other users. When I create a backend post, the dropdown list of mentions populates. When I try from the frontend (as most users would) there is no dropdown. If you know the entire username, the tag still works – it’s just the dropdown that won’t appear. Activity streams are turned on, and I have the following code in my functions.php
add_filter( ‘bp_activity_maybe_load_mentions_scripts’, ‘buddydev_enable_mention_autosuggestions’, 10, 2 );
function buddydev_enable_mention_autosuggestions( $load, $mentions_enabled ) {
if( ! $mentions_enabled ) {
return $load;//activity mention is not enabled, so no need to bother
}
//modify this condition to suit yours
if( is_user_logged_in() && bp_is_current_component( ‘gravity_forms’ ) ) {
$load = true;
}
return $load;
}
Am I missing something else? Thanks!
WordPress 5.6, BuddyPress 7.0.0, all plugins up to date. StarKid theme by Thimpress.
I’m getting page not found with these types of URLs:
https://oncloudk9.co.uk/members/On%20Cloud%20K9/profile/edit/
https://oncloudk9.co.uk/members/On%20Cloud%20K9/courses/all/
I understand that it’ how the user name is formed, the link is being created as on cloud k9, rather than on-cloud-k9, but I don’t know how to correct it.
On Cloud K9 is an admin account, so it’s not feasible to delete the account and recreate it.
Thanks.
Hi,
I have a directory website that runs on the MyListing theme.
I created a staging site and installed BuddyPress to test the possibility of increasing the features. Everything was working fine except for the Group page. It returns an empty page.
Please could you help me.
WordPress version – 5.6
BuddyPress version – 7.0.0
Hi @kerriem
Then, you have no other choice than to:
If I were you, I would deactivate plugins one by one, testing if the issue is still there after each plugin deactivated to find the problematic one. I would probably start with the ones that were lately updated. If you can narrow the cause this way you’ll be able to contact the right plugin’s support.
Because you can test by yourself BuddyPress 7.0.0 on a WordPress 5.6 fresh install with no other plugins, it works 😉
My hosting is retarded, I told them I would put a wordpress on each of 5 cpanel account they grant me to keep things neat an orderly…
Hosting: NoOOO!!! Attribute your domains/subdomains on just 1!!!!
Everyone knows better than me!
Yea they didn’t remove the groups. Tried yesterday. since I have 5-6 domains on this account where do I find the groups?

Thank @vapvarun and @imat for answer me 🙂
Sorry for my explanation…i did´t explain case clearly…The WordPress admin area works perfect for me…my problems come from the public-facing…When one user want to create a new group, this starts a group creation steps (group name and Description, Settings,Image); On the “step 2″(Settings), the user have to select one group type with a group type selection option. Before the release (before BP v 7.0.0) it was working successful but after the release, these group type selection option doesn’t appear…They only appear when i uninstall the pluging “BuddyPress Create Group Types”, but then I am not able to use the filter´s and Tap´s options…
Hi
I’d like all links within the activity stream (both internal and external) to open in a new window.
I’ve Googled and haven’t found a solution that works for me.
I’m on the latest versions of WordPress and Plugins.
https://oncloudk9.co.uk/groups/yuppy-puppy-pre-course-information-for-the-private-training-course/
Thanks in anticipation.
that seems a very old issue, might be theme specific which is using deprecated codes
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7842
@adjunkten try to test other regular emails using wp emails
I think it is a compatibility issure with Buddypress Registration Options.
Here is a support thread
I suppose this is a long shot, but here goes.
So I have BuddyPress and the Vantage theme installed on this random website (On a development server that’s only for internal users so no link available). On any of the BuddyPress Groups pages on this site, I get the following warning:
( ! ) Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, function ‘bp_group_new_topic_button’ not found or invalid function name in /var/www/html/INSTALLFOLDER/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php on line 287
Googling hasn’t really provided me with any solutions, so perhaps someone here may know the answer.
-Tried testing with TwentyTwenty theme and still get the warning.
-Tried changing Template Packs from Legacy to Nouveau and vice versa.
-Tried adding some code into functions.php to no avail.
-I disabled the bp-template-pack, but while that fixes the warning, it affects the Vantage theme design.
Using WordPress 5.5.3, BuddyPress 6.4.0, Vantage theme 1.15.5 as well as the bp-template-pack at version 1.2.1
Thanks!
I’m a huge nerd who uses BuddyPress. I don’t know everything but I would be on hand to answer questions. I’m a long time stack user. Back in the day when I worked for other people, I used SO all the time.
I’ve also run this idea past the Meta for WordPress SE (where BuddyPress is off-topic)
Hey,
thank you for the prompt reply!
1) we are using the BP Nouveau template
2) no errors in the inspector
3) no errors in the Network – AJAX – Response
I am including two screenshots of this:

As I did the upgrade to BuddyPress v7.0, I am fairly positive that was the one change that triggered the member directory getting “stuck” – and with it the Buddypress Widget, which we (used to) use prominently.
However, we did several upgrades all around WP 5.6 (we document everything). Here is an excerpt of our Change Log:
12 DEC 2020 – Saturday
☠ [08:40 UTC – @kerrie ] Filed a support request / bug inquiry here regarding the Buddypress membership / widget bug
☠ [07:45 UTC – @scaffiesadmin ] Replaced the Buddypress “Recently Online” widget with the GD “Currently Online” widget (much fewer displayed) on the newspaper, and added the “Find New Friends” widget, until the Buddypress widget has been fixed (member list does not update, it is a bigger issue than just the widget displaying it). Sadly, with Buddypress updates something goes wrong regularly – but it is usually fixed quickly.
11 DEC 2020 – Friday
☠ [12:30 UTC – @kerrie ] The Buddypress “Recently Online” widget on the newspaper seems to have stopped working. Must be connected to the v7.0 upgrade hours earlier (not that there is a choice to upgrade or not, really — security issues are also always fixed with those).
☠ [01:40 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated Advanced Editor Tools (previously TinyMCE Advanced) to v5.6.0
☠ [01:35 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated WordPress to v5.6 – ‘Simone’ … “Code is Poetry”
☠ [01:34 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated Autoptimize to v2.8.0
☠ [01:33 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated BP Better Messages (Premium) to v1.9.7.60 (no public change log) – “other bugfixes and improvements”
☠ [01:32 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated Buddypress to v7.0 – “a major BuddyPress feature release” .. named “Filippi“
☠ [01:31 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated EU Cookie Law to v3.1.6
☠ [01:30 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated GP Premium (GeneratePress theme plug-ins) to v1.12.3 (no public change log)
☠ [01:29 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated Jetpack to v9.2.1
☠ [01:28 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated MyCred (Points, Rewards, Gamification, Ranks, Badges & Loyalty) to v2.0
☠ [01:27 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated Newsletter to v7.0.0
☠ [01:26 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated Paid Memberships Pro – Gift Levels v0.3 (no public change log)
☠ [01:25 UTC – @kerrie ] Updated UpdraftPlus Premium to v2.16.42.24 (no public change log)
07 DEC 2020 – Monday
☠ [22:46 UTC – @scaffiesadmin ] Updated WP Maintenance Mode to v2.3.0
☠ [22:45 UTC – @scaffiesadmin ] Updated BP Better Messages (Premium) to v1.9.7.59 (no public change log) – PM Pro incompatibility fix (affected Scaffies)
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING INTO THIS!!

I’ve tested the described issue (Two friends User A & B, both subscribers, both having a group) with latest WordPress (5.6) and BuddyPress (7.0) and into the Twenty Twenty-One theme. I can’t reproduce your issue. If it was a BuddyPress issue, then it should be the case.
I advise you to try the above configuration on a testing site, you should see the issue won’t be there. Then activate your theme, check if the issue appeared, if so: the theme should fix it, then activate all the plugins you use on your site one by one making sure to test again the issue before activating a new plugin. As soon as you can reproduce the issue, you’ve found the problematic one.
Hello,
after the upgrade to v7.0 the membership directory is “stuck” (no longer updates), and the Buddypress “Recently Online” widget no longer works (also stuck, frozen in last status).
Any idea what this may cause, and is this an already known issue (which will be fixed soon)?
We use the latest version of WordPress (5.6) andkeep all plug-ins up-to-date.
Thanks!

Yes, LIKE is slow.
Mentions are handled differently as you can see; a css class is added to the content field.
So perhaps the id of the mentioned user could be added to the item_id or secondary_item_id field.
Then the query could just look for matching integers.
I suggest you open an enhancement ticket – and reference this thread.
Hi.
I’m having an issue with Groups that causes the activity to show “Load More” instead of showing latest group updates/posts. Filters also do not work for me on group activity stream.
I have it setup to show the groups Activity feed by default instead of a homepage for the group.
If set a homepage for the group and then navigate to ‘Activity’ everything works as it should.
Filters work. However, my requirement is to have latest posts load first by default.
I’m using Buddypress Nouveau on a custom WordPress theme based on Underscores.
Any insight or troubleshooting ideas would be greatly appreciated!
All the best,
Justin
Well, I downloaded the 2019 theme, disabled all plugins and deleted the Buddypress plugin. Then I re-uploaded the Buddypress plugin fresh… still no pages 🙁 I’ve tried both uploading the .zip from my computer AND searching through the WordPress plugins panel.
I’m at a loss here. To be fair, it DOES say that it’s untested with WordPress 5.6. I just noticed that
WordPress 5.6
BuddyPress 6.4
I recently installed BuddyPress. Everything was working fine, but now the main nav on the profile page disappeared except on the profile homepage.
So I see it here: https://cloudninemeeple.com/members/aunrea/
but not here: https://cloudninemeeple.com/members/aunrea/profile/
or anywhere else in the profile area.
I have my own theme I made and have only made some CSS changes since installing the plugin. The CSS is not hiding the nav (I checked).
I have a lot of plugins but I deactivated all plugins except BuddyPress and that did not help.
I can’t figure out why it disappeared when it was there before.
The plugin shanebp linked does normal wordpress pages, if you read the instructions it adds an option to each page/post so you can select whether it is private or not. Also did you ask the creators of “Restrict User Access – Membership Plugin with Force” about blocking groups etc as it says BP is supported.
