For questions 2 and 3 — yes, you can customise these aspects of your site — there are many ways of doing it, and to some extent it depends on the approach you take to developing your site’s theme.

You can remove tabs, and add new tabs through the BuddyPress API
You can also remove them by developing your own custom template files (and similarly for the avatar sizes)

If you look on the showcase tab on this site, or visit bpinspire.com for more up to date examples, you can get a feel for what you can achieve based on BuddyPress.

Much the same as a WordPress site doesn’t have to follow the basic blog structure, similarly a BuddyPress site doesn’t have to follow the generic bp-default theme structure and UX.

Hi, I have the same exact problem!
This is what I get in my PHP log file:

Please help me! How can I fix this issue?

go to your current themes directory, open up functions.php
add
`
register_sidebar(array(
‘name’ => __( ‘Sidebar2’ ),
‘id’ => ‘sidebar2’,
‘description’ => __( ‘Widgets in this area will be shown on sidebar2.’ ,’buddypress’ ),
‘before_widget’ => ‘

It’s sounds you need a developer to work on your general site build, rather than having specific BuddyPress questions.

You can hire a developer by posting here: http://jobs.wordpress.net
You can also try posting on the jobs board on this site: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/

Do not ever download scripts that are not hosted on WordPress.org or at least have a good following and are well known. I even test plugins on a separate install before using live.

Hi @Hugo, you can check the plugin please, i hav’nt time to add it to wordpress repo.

and you Mr @newpress, don’t throw accusations around like that .

I’m also having this same issue.

On a fresh install, (http://dsjprojects.com/buddypress) post comments are indeed logged into the activity stream.

But on my main sites, (http://anawimcc.org, http://signsofsafetyusa.com/activity/) post comments aren’t logged in the activity stream. Not even after reverting to Default theme and disabling all plugins, and even updating to the most recent BuddyPress. Not sure what it could be…

I don’t know what @r-a-y means by “setting my activity stream filter”. I’ve looked around a bit and not found a whole lot on this specific issue; This Thread seems to have a bit of good material but I think I’m in over my head a bit.

Any help? Or, anyone having the same problem?

Thanks much,

This comment sounds like a general WordPress / User Role Editor plugin issue, and not anything to do with BuddyPress – Have you asked on their forums?

I want to check these out. Thanks!

Here are a few of my favorites…

BuddyPress Profile Privacy – Users can hide different parts of their profiles… very cool.

The following are not Buddypress but they seem very compatible so far.

AG Custom Admin This is Dashboard Editor and you can control what your members see.
I have cleaned up their dashboard – they no longer see the wordpress profile or the press this tool or other random plugin settings. You can do so much with this tool and completely customize the way the back end looks. I was amazed.

User Role Editor – You can add new roles and give and take away specific powers. I have made a new role based on the Author role and gave the new role category powers. The site I am building is a family recipe site and I wanted to allow them to add their name as a category and also different cooking terms. This plugin is also a nice way to view every detail of the standard roles in WordPress.

Search Everything – This plugin seems to help with searching… I wasn’t getting any results before installing but now everything comes up.

In 1.6 beta 2 https://buddypress.org/2012/07/buddypress-1-6-beta-2/ there is a facility to restrict visibility of profile fields to —-> Anyone, Logged In Users or My Friends.

In addition there is https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-profile-privacy/ for earlier versions of buddypress. This can restrict visibility of profile fields to —-> Everyone, My Friends, or Only Me

Fact: BuddyPress does NOT copy the site administrator in on all emails that are sent out. So it’s something on your site.

How are you creating user accounts? As usual, through WordPress, or do you have an LDAP integration or something exotic? Have you confirmed (by looking in the wp_users table) that the email addresses are actually different (not meant to be a stupid question)?

I would ask how your host moved the database/site across, but you probably don’t have the details to hand. I asked because while I haven’t seen emails get messed up, I’ve seen site URLs and permalinks break. Does all regular WordPress content on the site seem to work?

What company provide your hosting?

Sharing user databases across multiple separate installs of WordPress can be complicated. I wouldn’t recommend for this purpose. I’m not sure BuddyPress even works in this configuration — it might, I’ve never tried.

If you want to try, check out this section of the WordPress codex: https://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Custom_User_and_Usermeta_Tables

All you need is in that first line. Let’s break it down:

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘apiServiceException’ with message
‘Error calling https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/108328961616806242196/activities/public?maxResults=5&alt=

json: (403) Daily Limit Exceeded. Please sign up’

in /home/wolf/public_html/wp-content/plugins/google/lib/external/google/io/apiREST.php:99

Going backwards, the error is coming from the wp-content/plugins/google/ plugin, and specifically the error returned is “Daily Limit Exceeded”. Looks like you need to sign up or otherwise increase your rate limit for whichever Google API you are using.
Also, assuming this Google plugin is actually https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google/, you should be able to use WPMUDEV’s support forums if you need further assistance resolving this.

There are some wordpress poll plug ins. If your after surveys other than buddypress, go for free survey scripts
