Topic: A user-focussed BuddyPress?
I am one of the disenchanted users who went away from BuddyPress that @imath mentions in his post https://buddypress.org/2023/04/buddypress-has-a-new-purpose/, in which he also promises a new user-focused direction for BuddyPress.
That all sounds fantastic. The “big change” introduced in 12.0.0 is quite welcome. And I welcome the change of heart from https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6345 “We don’t have — and should never have — enough settings to warrant creating separate screens for them.” to what we now have – multiple tabs for BuddyPress settings.
But, and I am sorry to say, and believe me I say it out of love, BuddyPress is still living in the early naughties. When setting up any community, the biggest CSF is signup and onboarding. A signup such as https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4132 is absolutely essential for any self-respecting community software. If anything, I would remove the need to signup with a password – modern applications increasingly use “magic links”, rather than ask for a password during signup.
Another crucial one is admin control over what is shown in group/member lists https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4126, https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4131 and https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4683
Not including basic Group Management in the core also doesn’t make a lot of sense https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4540
Another one is to take advantage of and approximate the behaviour of WordPress https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4569 or https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4017
In the last 12-13 years, I may have missed if there have been developments in this direction, but seems to like there haven’t.Topic: Member’s site not showing up
I’m using WordPress 6.8.1 and Buddypress 14.3.4 on a subdomain multisite installation. Everything is working just fine except for one thing: when a member clicks ‘My sites’ nothing shows up. I’m a member of two sites and I signed up with a test account and still nothing.
I’m wondering if it’s because I created the sites before I actually installed Buddypress? There doesn’t appear to be an option in the Buddypress network tools to recalculate the sites.
Thanks for any help.
Hello,
Starting from version 12, the plugin’s GUI has changed, and I can no longer select my custom registration and activation pages.
When I type “Registration” or “Activation”—which are existing WordPress pages—the plugin appends “-2” to their URLs.

Hi BuddyPress Community,
I’m currently working on improving the overall user experience on my WordPress-based site, which is centered around the Chipotle menu and pricing. My goal is to make the site more interactive and community-driven, allowing visitors to not only browse menu items but also share customizations, reviews, and ordering tips.
Here’s what I’m planning:
Improving User Engagement: I’m exploring ways to add community features like user profiles, comment threads, and maybe even local pricing insights submitted by users.
Considering BuddyPress: I’ve been looking into BuddyPress as a possible solution to build out these social features and create a more connected experience for returning users.
Site Link for Context: [edit: link removed] — feel free to check it out to see the current layout and content style.
I’d love advice on:
How to use BuddyPress to enhance content-focused websites (vs. forums or traditional social platforms).
Lightweight setup ideas to avoid performance issues.
Suggestions for plugins or tools that work well alongside BuddyPress for food or menu-based communities.
Appreciate any feedback or tips! Thanks so much in advance.
Hi
We have copied over community builder for Joomla to Buddypress in Wordpres.
All is great but I need to know how to be able to manually add new users to WordPress that will enable their profile to be displayed the same as the users that we have copied over from Community Builder.
thanks
Paul
Hello!
Users have stopped receiving password reset letters. I looked in the “Letters” settings and in the menu for selecting situations for a letter there is no situation for resetting the password.
The letter itself is there, but there is no situation for sending such a letter.
Please tell me how to fix the situation?

BuddyPress 14.3.4
WordPress 6.7.2
edit: link removedI am setting up an e-commerce website on WordPress and trying to decide between Elementor and Gutenberg for building my pages. I know that Elementor offers a drag-and-drop interface with many design options, while Gutenberg is the default WordPress editor with block-based editing. Which one should I prefer for my site?
I’m using the latest version of WordPress (v6.7.2) and BuddyPress (v 14.3.3), together with another plugin called “Modern Image Formats (v 2.5.0)” that converts all images to AVIF file type when uploading new images to reduce my HDD usage on my site. Whenever the “Modern Image Formats” plugin is acitvated, the uploading of a new profile image in BuddyPress crashes whenever it reaches the step to crop the image.
Is there any hope for BuddyPress to support AVIF file types soon?

https://cfoforum.co.inTopic: Infinite replies
Hello,
I’m trying to create custom commenting on a buddypress install. I basically would like to have 2 levels of nested comments, and infinite replies without the indentation causing comments to be unreadable. I found this code, but I think it’s specific to WordPress comments, not buddypress:
// Add a custom reply link for infinite comments
function add_a_reply_link($comment) {
$temp = get_comment_id();
$comment_handle = get_comment($temp);
// $comment_handle = get_comment(get_comment_id());
$comment_link = get_comment_link($comment_handle);
$comment_id = get_comment_id();
$post_id = get_the_id();
$author = get_comment_author();$comment= $comment . ‘<p>Reply</p>’;
return $comment;
}add_filter(‘get_comment_text’, ‘add_a_reply_link’);
// Remove the default reply link
function remove_reply_link() {
return ”;
}
add_filter(‘comment_reply_link’, ‘remove_reply_link’)I added buddypress groups to the website as a feature for members to share posts on the group activity feed, live chat and create networking groups.
However, when i go to the groups homepage and the text box at the top to share a post wont work. It lets me click on it and type but there isnt a submit button to share the post. I also had to switch the template pack from BP Nouveau to BP Legacy because on the Nouveau template the activity feed page does not even show up at all. I’m using Astra as my WordPress website theme at the moment.
