Hi all,
Apologies for the post. I’m a wordpress/website creation/Buddypress novice and am struggling a bit to get all my plugins to work together. As such this post may not make complete sense as it’coming from a slightly confused place.
Basically what I’m trying to do is create a person to person marketplace.
I have a registration form (User Registration plugin) that I like and it also integrates with woocommerce which is a big plus. It also makes a User Registration MyAccount page which I was thinking of using as a profile page (as I can edit this). However, I like the messaging and friend capabilities of buddypress and want to incorporate that if possible (has lead me into some plugin conflicts).
So I had a few questions:
1) Could I assign the BP registration page as a page with User Registration shortcode?
2) Do you need to assign all the BP pages for BP to work?
3) Could another registration form be used to create a BP profile
4) Any suggestions as how I could achieve my goals by managing my plugins differently?
@pmanuel
you can try to paste following code in wp-config.php file just before the line that says ‘That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging.’
define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' )
you can read more about it here.
https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/fix-wordpress-memory-exhausted-error-increase-php-memory/
@pmanuel inside your WordPress install, log in via FTP or SFTP
and open wp-config.php
and find line
define( 'WP_DEBUG', false );
and replace it with following
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
@pmanuel you can turn on debug mode using the following guide
Debugging in WordPress
any error log will help to isolate the issue.
I’m using BuddyPress with Olympus child theme and Youzer. I don’t have an Activity Page under pages list. I have to go to the user profile and literally change the url to get to the activity page that is connected with the profile and the one that I can modify with Youzer. I downloaded BuddyPress from the WordPress plugin screen so I’m not sure on how to get the correct activity page back listed under my pages tab. I’m quite confident I messed this up. I just need help fixing it. Thank you!
The BP Maps for Members creates member maps based on data from the BP xProfile Location plugin.
And it includes support for the BP Profile Search plugin.
@chris98 At CodeCanyon, plugins like LetsPush and Smart Notification WordPress Plugin offers web push notification support for BuddyPress
I created an action that uses the messages_new_message function (any time a user gets a tag, they automatically receive a private message.)
Would it be possible to put a border around the message or make the font different? I would like to make these messages stand out a little from the other messages in a users inbox/thread by adding some styling. Below is the code I am using:
function send_message_to_student_113( $user_id, $tags_applied ) {
$tag_id = wp_fusion()->user->get_tag_id( ‘course tag 1.1.1’ );
if ( in_array( $tag_id, $tags_applied ) ) {
$args = array(
‘sender_id’ => 1,
‘thread_id’ => false,
‘recipients’ => $user_id,
‘subject’ => ‘Hello there’,
‘content’ => ‘You got a new tag! Congratulations. Please let me know if you need any help!’,
‘date_sent’ => bp_core_current_time()
);
$result = messages_new_message( $args );
}
}
add_action( ‘wpf_tags_applied’, ‘send_message_to_student_113’, 10, 2 );
I am using WordPress 5.3 and I am actually using BuddyBoss which is a fork of Buddypress.
Thank you! Simmi
@cmsplay there are a couple of plugins in WordPress repo to import the user from CSV and few of them have support for BuddyPress.
You can try https://wordpress.org/plugins/import-users-from-csv-with-meta/
@sanra84 you can check following
BuddyPress Links in WordPress Menus
You can add them as a dropdown menu which will display for logged-in users.
The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: User Groups. Repair
I can not repair it.
When I want to create a group I klik add new group.. then I get to the sample page which is nothing.. so the component is missing.
how to solve this?
If you have better wordpress installed that might be worth turning off whilst testing, that’s the only plugin I know with those initials. As it’s a premium theme it would be worth contacting them for support..
Hi @imath first thanks for your reply.
As you can see from my code I have added to my first message, I am using an hook provided by WORDPRESS
https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Login_Form
So correction of buddypress code should be simple and efective…
I have opened a new ticket in TRAC
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8277#ticket
I hope this issue can be resolved before release V6
As you say: “If it’s just adding a hook available in the /wp-login.php page then, why not”
😉
Sorry I’ve just read about this issue. Having it fixed in 6.0.0 seems difficult as there’s no ticket about it in Trac and the release is scheduled to the end of this month. If it’s just adding a hook available in the /wp-login.php page then, why not but if Plugins adding these checkboxes are using different hooks it can be challenging.
Could you open a ticket on Trac ( https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket ) and eventually find out what is the name of the WP hook these plugins are using to try to have it fixed asap ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Sorry for not listening to the rules! Here is a better version of my previous post –
I am using WordPress 5.3 and I am actually using a theme called BuddyBoss to implement Buddyboss but that shouldn’t matter for my question.
So I created a custom function where any time a user gets a tag, they automatically receive a private message. I would like to make these messages stand out a little from the other messages in a users inbox/thread by adding special styling. Would it be possible to put a border around this message? Below is the code I am using:
Thank you! Simmi
function send_message_to_student_113( $user_id, $tags_applied ) {
$tag_id = wp_fusion()->user->get_tag_id( ‘course tag 1.1.1’ );
if ( in_array( $tag_id, $tags_applied ) ) {
$args = array(
‘sender_id’ => 1,
‘thread_id’ => false,
‘recipients’ => $user_id,
‘subject’ => ‘Hello there’,
‘content’ => ‘You got a new tag! Congratulations. Please let me know if you need any help!’,
‘date_sent’ => bp_core_current_time()
);
$result = messages_new_message( $args );
}
}
add_action( ‘wpf_tags_applied’, ‘send_message_to_student_113’, 10, 2 );
I think BuddyPress just uses the standard WP login page so https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Login_Form has info on customising or even replacing the page.
On one of my sites I created a completely new page following this guide, https://themetrust.com/build-custom-wordpress-login-page/
It should be simple enough to create a custom page that disables the login button unless the checkbox is selected.
Hello
Wordpress 5.4 & Buddypress 5.1.2 installed on a subdomain.
I am setting up a community site with Buddypress.
It looks nice but I am not yet able to set it the way I would like it 🙁
I don’t know if it’s possible, but how can I set up a new group so that:
1) Members can respond directly to it
2) That response is therefore visible under that particular group
3) Other drawers can also respond to this
4) If a member other than that group opens or joins it, sees all those reactions and can possibly participate in the discussion?
5) That the whole discussion stays under that group and becomes visible as soon as someone opens that group?
Now when I open a group I don’t see an opportunity to post a comment anywhere as a member.
Another lock-down option is: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-simple-private/
However, if you just need some private pages & categories, then you don’t need BuddyPress at all unless there is some interface aspect that requires profiles.
If you aren’t using profiles, then there are probably some WP plugins that do what you want.
Or, the custom WP code to accomplish is quite simple – if you are a WP dev.
@giuseppecuttone for signup page you will have to use
bp_signup_validate
bp_before_registration_submit_buttons
You can try this, seems still working
BuddyPress Simple Terms And Conditions
@bmotion you can give a try to https://wordpress.org/plugins/lock-my-bp/
It will help to lock down specific pages and community section to members only.
Hi @techsector7,
There should be information on https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/translating/inactive-translations/ for what to do, there is also a slack channel #polyglots (info on joining this https://make.wordpress.org/chat/) where you can chat to other people on the team.
Hopefully the above helps.
