BuddyPress.org

@tiagobeloto – this seems to be getting fixed in 1.6 (see link below) You’d be better off waiting for that release to hit before implementing this.

However, if you need a quick fix until then @r-a-y provided some code near the beginning of the discussion that might help…

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2207

You shouldn’t have to create any subpage at all.

If you’re using a WordPress theme which doesn’t include BuddyPress templates, you need to install and activate BP Template Pack plugin and go through the BP Compatibility process which will transfer all the required templates, CSS and JS needed to your active WP theme folder.

This is a known issue and is fixed in trunk, ready for BP 1.6. If you’d like to fix this in your current installation, check this out https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5628

If you want to remove all HTML, this should work:

`function bbg_remove_activity_html( $content ) {
return strip_tags( $content );
}
add_filter( ‘bp_get_activity_content_body’, ‘bbg_remove_activity_html’, 1 );
add_filter( ‘bp_get_activity_content’, ‘bbg_remove_activity_html’, 1 );
add_filter( ‘bp_activity_content_before_save’, ‘bbg_remove_activity_html’, 1 );`

If you want to remove HTML tags more selectively, check out the filter at the end of this function, which will allow you to modify which tags are allowed: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.4/bp-activity/bp-activity-filters.php#L90

The problem is that when you load message.php via AJAX, you’re not loading all of WordPress and BuddyPress, which means that the messages_get_unread_count() function is not defined.

Instead of using ‘message.php’ as your AJAX url, use the one that BP provides for you, and be sure to provide an ‘action’ parameter:
` jQuery.ajax({
url: ajaxurl,
action: ‘get_message_count’,
dataType….`

That’ll ensure that WP/BP is loaded on your AJAX call.

Then, you’ll need to make sure that you have a listener function in your functions.php, using the `wp_ajax_` syntax. (Read more here: http://w4dev.com/wp/wp_ajax/) Use `wp_ajax_` plus your chosen action name to define the hook:

`function bbg_messages_ajax_callback() {
echo messages_get_unread_count();
die();
}
add_action( ‘wp_ajax_get_message_count’, ‘bbg_messages_ajax_callback’ );`

Hi @takuya and @cyrille13 – Sorry for some of the miscommunications above. It was only after seeing the linked bug report that I was able recognize that what you were reporting was actually an instance of https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3725, which we’ve known about for a while, but which was very difficult to track down. (See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3725#comment:7 for all the gory details.) It has been fixed for the next version of BP. In the meantime, you can fix your installation either by manually applying https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/5778, or by doing what @cyrille13 suggests: changing the name of your Full Name profile field at Dashboard > BuddyPress > Profile Fields.

Thanks for your patience.

The “log out function” is part of WordPress. What do you mean?

Sometimes the email gets stuck in spam or junk filters.

To get email working, some web hosts require an extra wordpress plugin, such as:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/configure-smtp/

wp-mail-smtp and configure-smtp can send a test email which often provides useful debug information!

This is a frequently discussed issue here and people have found all three different plugins useful – there may be others.

Please check your host’s knowledge base or faq for further information….
