    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.

    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.

    Hi,

    Your best option is to flag it in the #buddypress channel on Slack or to flag it in this forum (Request & Feedback), given that posting in any of the forums doesn’t automatically flag a post as spam or as requiring moderation.

    That said, your post was automatically flagged for moderation due having 3 links (3 or more links will automatically place your post into moderation). As to how long it will take will depend on whether a moderator notices the post or is made aware of such, as you have done.

    Last but not least, I edited your initial post such that the links don’t register as links, basically encapsulated the links within the code tag/element. Additionally, I released your Topic from moderation.

    Let’s me know if my “final final” guess worked. I had a look at how add_filter works in wordpress and I can’t imagine any other method being correct.

    Hi,

    In order to select WP pages (as it was prior to BP 12), you will have to install the BP Classic add-on/plugin.

    Those are the 21 situations that are installed by BuddyPress. If a situation for password reset had existed it would have had to be installed by, at the momenent, an unknown plugin which then would have made the count 22.

    So, at this point, it is still unclear whether an email template and associated situation existed prior to March 25. OK, so let’s try something that might provide some insight as to what may be occurring:

    1. In an Activity post, @mention yourself, so that you would receive and email. We need to look at the email header information to see whether that email was sent by BuddyPress or by WP Mail SMTP.
    2. Send yourself a test message from WP Mail SMTP (once for HTML and once for plain text), again to check the email header information.

    Personally, I only use the built-in emailing capabilities for WordPress related messages and BuddyPress for its related messages. However, I did install WP Mail SMTP (default PHP configuration) just to check how it functions with sending emails.

    I will also attempt to install All-In-One Security (AIOS) to see if it is installing the password email template and situation.

    In the meantime, I’m interested in knowing the results of the email header information specifically 2 key value pairs:

    • Content-Type
    • X-Mailer

    The above list are the keys and an example for the @mention test would be:

    
    Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="b1=_pryh1yml4xJIzLfYeFcRRVRuhNzbjtZon2KyTKgas"
    X-Mailer: PHPMailer 6.9.3 (https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer)
    

    For WP Mail SMTP the results for the HTML test would be:

    
    Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
    X-Mailer: WPMailSMTP/Mailer/mail 4.4.0
    

    For WP Mail SMTP the results for the plain text would be:

    
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
    X-Mailer: WPMailSMTP/Mailer/mail 4.4.0
    

    What I’m attempting to do here is to fill in the blanks, in my mind/have an historical record, and via the process of elimination attempt to figure out what is preventing password reset emails from being delivered.

    The issue at this point, as I see it, is that there is additional information that is missing or yet to be uncovered/disclosed. Do you know as a matter of fact that this email template existed prior to March 25? If the email template, it’s corresponding situation (what you call a trigger) and any underlying code to make all of this function, for a password reset to be sent via BuddyPress, would have had to have been created by a plugin (that is not BuddyPress) and if true then that plugin needs to be identified in order to figure out why it has not reinstalled the email template with an associated situation (trigger). Otherwise, if the email template never existed then your problem lies elsewhere.

    Normally, password resets are a function of WordPress and are sent via the wp_mail() function that is executed via the retrieve_password() function. However, I noticed that you are using the WP Mail SMTP plugin of which password resets would be sent via this plugin instead of the wp_mail() function (WordPress).

    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.

    Easiest is to use the Code Snippets plugin. Download it from the wordpress plugins site. I can’t link to it because this fu***** sh** website holds my comment for moderation when I link to the Official wordpress website. Go figure.

    For an e-commerce website, I recommend using Elementor over Gutenberg because it offers a more flexible and user-friendly design experience. Elementor provides a drag-and-drop interface, allowing you to customize your pages easily without any coding. It also has a wide range of pre-designed templates and advanced features like custom headers, footers, and integrations with popular e-commerce plugins like WooCommerce. While Gutenberg is a solid choice for simpler sites and is built into WordPress, Elementor will give you much more control over the design and functionality, which is crucial for creating a professional-looking and high-performing e-commerce site.

    How do I remove the sidebar for all BuddyPress pages (directory, member profile, etc)?

    I’d like the pages to display full-width without the sidebar.

    I’m running:
    – WordPress 6.8
    – BuddyPress 14.3.4
    – Elementor 3.28.3

    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.

    Both have their strengths! If you want full design flexibility and a user-friendly drag-and-drop interface, Elementor is great. If you prefer speed, simplicity, and better performance, Gutenberg is a solid choice—plus it’s built into WordPress. It really depends on your design needs and how lightweight you want your site to be.

    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?

    Both have their strengths! Elementor offers more design flexibility with a drag-and-drop interface, making it great for complex layouts. Gutenberg, on the other hand, is lightweight and integrates natively with WordPress, which helps with performance. Are you prioritizing ease of use or site speed?

    I 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?

    Hello,
    I am currently working on my new website https://learnhisword.org/
    I am using WordPress 6.7.2 and BuddyPress 14.3.3

    No menu items are showing at all in the menus section. Can’t add them either it seems.

    I am not using a Buddypress theme! I am using the Masteriyo LMS.

    You could check if this plugin still works. It segregates BuddyPress social networks in a multi network WordPress install so that each WP network has a different social network. One for each Network.

    You could also check if this plugin still works. It allows each site on an individual network have its own separate buddypress social network.

    It would appear that you may even, at present*, be able to run separate (though members shared) buddypress social networks on every site in a WP Multi Network setup.

    AFAIK they both still work in with WP 6.7.2, BP 14.3.3 PHP 8.3.11 MYSQL8.0.35 but you should check yourself if they still do. (i am not a developer or coder)

    *The Buddypress Development Team has stated that consideration has been given by the Team to perhaps in the long term to deprecate the multiblog feature sometime in the future. This (AFAIK) would not effect the first scenario but would effect the second

    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:

    Home » WordPress » How to Have Infinite Replies with WordPress Threaded Comments

    How to Have Infinite Replies with WordPress Threaded Comments
    WordPress doesn’t allow to have infinite replies beyond the maximum nested comment depth. In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to create a “Reply” link for all threaded comments, regardless of the depth.

    In this screenshot, I’ve set the nested comments level to three:

    WordPress Nested Comments Three Levels Deep

    WordPress will nest comment replies to this depth and then stop showing the “Reply” link at the bottom of every comment, as shown here:

    Because of this limitation, visitors can’t have an ongoing conversation on your site, thereby stifling debate. The code below fixes this problem.

    Code for Infinite WordPress Replies
    To solve the above problem, paste the following code into your theme’s functions.php file, or better yet, use a custom plugin for code insertion. Whichever way you choose, here’s the code you need:

    // 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.
