BuddyPress.org

@keysaints try https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp2wp-full-sync/

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.

I’m not an expert, but the only way I’ve found potentially to do this is via separate plugins, e.g.:

BuddyPress Group Email Subscription

Sitewide Newsletters

Marking this as Resolved. Published your posting at https://jobs.wordpress.net/job/customize-buddypress-theme/

>> isn’t there any forum or section here or website on the internet or anything anywhere with folks that specialize in THIS only

Hi @bwnvideo You can do that at the official WordPress jobs board at https://jobs.wordpress.net/post-a-job/

Hi @techsector7,

Thanks for your interest in submitting the Serbian (Latin) translation of BuddyPress! You’re most welcome to do so. Looking at https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/buddypress/ the Serbian translation of BP is at 15% for the stable version and 6% for the development version.

Become a Translation Editor and select BuddyPress. Choose your preferred language e.g. German. Then select ‘Stable (latest release)’ or ‘Development (trunk)’. The translation needs to be at least 90% complete to be approved for the Stable/Dev languages.

Both it would be easier if you created your own threads to receive support.

@closedloopers that really depends on whether any other plugins you use have been kept up to date and what custom code you have. BuddyPress iteself should be upgradeable from older versions by installing each of the major releases until you are up to date, they are available at the bottom of https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/advanced/
Remember and take a backup and test along the way.

@smiranda unfortunately unless you tell us what issues and glitches you are facing nobody on these forums will be able to provide much help. Feel free to create a new thread with more information and hopefully someone will be able to help out.

I’ve just discovered that this is a known bbPress bug, and a patch has been submitted here (see “Attachments”):
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3341

Editing bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/notifications.php as shown has fixed the issue for me.

Dashboard -> Settings -> General and check your WordPress Address (URL), that box doesn’t normally include index.php unless you actually have a folder with that name on your host with wordpress inside.
