Hi there
I’d like to provide on-the-fly validation on my Buddypress register page, particularly for the default WordPress stuff – username, password, email address.
Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,
Ian
The http://buddypress.org/extend/themes/ page says:
Themes: Working on this soon. Apologies for the delay while we rebuild the bits and bobs
It would be more helpful if this page could reference http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/tags/buddypress while its being rebuilt.
(found on the http://codex.buddypress.org/legacy/installing-a-bp-compatible-theme/ page)
Have you tried searching the WordPress plugin repository for something like ‘buddypress spam messages’?
A good plugin that will certainly resolve the issue is
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-private-message-for-friends-only/
Same here after an install of 1.7.2 and 3.5.2 with multisite.
It does seem to be an issue so I suggest you file a bug report at https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/
This is really crazy!
I also found this problem in the creation of my site (WordPress 3.5.2 + Buddypress 1.7.2 + bbPress 2.3.2, default BP Theme, no other plugins, fresh installed…).
I was getting a Error 500 when antempting to log in.
Followed the instructions and now is solved, thanks!
Someone should include this bug into development for next version of BuddyPress!!
Hi all,
I have a wordpress multisite installation using subdomains.
So I have:
example.com
buddypress.example.com
If a buddypress user would like to reset his/her password using the theme’s custom “Reset Password” page everything is ok. The user gets the email with the link for resetting the password.
The problem occurs when a user mistypes his/her password and he/she is redirected to the wordpress page for reseting the password. He/She types his/her email address but the email that he/she receives doesn’t include the resetting password url.
Any idea?

using the same user / pw you use here
At the moment, there are two “Profile” pages for contributors in my BuddyPress install: one is the standard WordPress profile to change their passwords. The other is the BuddyPress profile page to change their avatar.
Is there a way of adding the password change function to the BuddyPress profile page?
It’s confusing to instruct users to go to two pages with the same name. I’d like just one 🙂
Thanks for your suggestions!
This is a better question to ask on WordPress.org, as the question is all about its implementation of TinyMCE.
Yes, I deactivated the plugins and went to default theme but that didn’t do anything.
Wordpress 3.5.2
BuddyPress 1.7.2
I reinstalled WordPress (imported post, pages and forums) and it seems to be displaying right for each visit at the website!
@mareksgregs use this plugin:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordfence/
That plugin will check all core files.
Do you use WordPress simple or WordPress Multisite?
@applegateian, henries code should work, but as you’ve experienced it won’t change the current size of the avatars. I also believe bp has thumbnail avatars and “full” the smaller “thumbnail” the ones wordpress uses is 50px and the larger(which can be grabbed with bp_core_fetch_avatar) are 150px by 150px.
bp_core_fetch_avatar( array(
'item_id' => $userid,
'type' => 'full',
'width' => 150,
'height' => 150
));
That will display the “full” avatar.
@jimbaldwin1137yahoocom You’re welcome. Marking this issue as resolved.
The dashboard > activity is correctly displaying after applying trishasala’s patch (4573.patch)

just blank space huh? never seen that before not sure how its even possible unless as i said before your site was hacked and even then I’m still not sure how it’s possible. as far as i know every wordpress user account must be associated with an email address.
I’m opening this up again in the hopes that someone who knows something will see it this time:
I’m looking for a plugin that would allow me to put up a page like this one:
http://moz.com/invite/signup
and to collect name/email from those interested in joining as members for my site
I do NOT want to block off the site from them if they are not members or haven’t joined yet, like so many beta plugins do. For example:
Review: Closed Beta WordPress Plugin
I want them to be able to find the site, read it, etc. but not to be able to signup, except for through an invitation request.
I know there is a plugin called invite anyone, but this is to allow existing users to invite friends to join. I want to be able to accept invitation requests from the public.
BuddyPress seems to attempt to filter get_avatar() – see bp_core_fetch_avatar_filter(). I did bring this issue up a while ago at WordPress Trac but the call was closed.
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/24596
Wonder if anyone thinks it’s worthy of a BP Trac ticket?
You’re using wordpress’s get_avatar is what you’re looking for
I am using WordPress version 3.2.1 . I have used buddypress plugin and custom community theme for managing the users, groups etc. There are number of groups(like as Facebook). In each group, the members can upload images. All the uploaded images of all groups are stored in same folder. Up to here, everything is fine.
Now I am designing a group page where the images uploaded in respective group will be displayed. Since all the images are in same folder, when I try to get images, I get all uploaded images(from different group too). I tried to distinguish images by their name but i couldn’t. Image names are like :: 1_0.025324001371613653_stefen2.jpg, 68_0.633952001324511516_268060_111305035632527_100002590944087_90672_1294454_n.jpg etc. The numbers 1 and 68 in the beginning of image name are the id of user or member who uploaded the image. But the problem is one user can be member of more than one group. So, if I distinguish the images by their first number(before _) then that image will be displayed in more than one group where the user is active.
I have checked in the database too. But there is only information about which user is in which group and which image is uploaded by which user. But, in which group the user uploaded that image is undefined. I tried to understand the upload code but couldn’t. I am beginner in buddypress and intermediate in WordPress.
Can anyone suggest me how to distinguish images???
Thans in advance!!!!
