Hello Guys.
I need your help I’m building a new e-commerce web shop in WordPress and I found BuddyPress which should be great for us website I’m able to create like two different accounts for example one like a normal customer who will go through the portal and he can choose what he wants to buy and the second one like a professional buyer who can Connect or if I can say to link with another account and he can manage them something like a membership and he can shop through their accounts. I’m trying to find this solution in BuddyPress but I couldn’t find the way how to manage a people in my group and shop through them. Manage I mean edit their billing addresses and all this things PLEASE CAN YOU HELP ME WITH THAT I will pay for that but I really need help
This would be quite complicated to do. IF it were me I’d fork https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-disable-activation-reloaded/ and remove the auto-activation code.
Yes the users need a valid email address in order to activate their account. On think to check is that the emails are not being rejected as spam by their email provider ( gmail does this ). I found a way to avoid this was to change the default wordpress@host.com to something more specific to the site using CB Change Mail Sender plugin.
The limitations of BuddyPress are really the limitations of WordPRess and your host. If you think WordPress.com is run on WordPress you can see that scaling is possible, but that you’d probably need to do extensive customisations. File upload size is a server setting.
I had the same problem. I disabled WP User Avatar which solved the problem.
This plugin is apparently not compatiple with BuddyPress. The FAQ for the plugin says:
Will WP User Avatar work with BuddyPress?
No, BuddyPress has its own custom avatar functions and WP User Avatar will override only some of them. It’s best to use BuddyPress without WP User Avatar.
I’m using 5.1.1 in WordPress and latest Buddypress version (Nouveau template). It is currently in a subdomain (sandbox) for now. I’m also using a child theme to make adjustments. I would like to move the navigation on all pages to ABOVE the the cover image/avatar. Or just move the coverimage/avatar to below the navigation. Is this an easy adjustment?

Side note – Buddypress is impressive.
Hi there, WordPress and BuddyPress are predominately PHP applications. PHP requires a page load in order to view new content and this is what you are seeing – you click a menu item a new page loads and it starts from the top of the page again. There are tricks to bring the page focus back to where you were and BP uses these where appropriate, another trick is to use Javescript to fetch now content and again BP uses this, in the activity page for example. But when you are clicking a main link, an entire now page is going to be loaded to there’s not a reference of where you were in order to set the new page focus. So in short, it’s the way WordPress and BuddyPress have been written, yu’d need to do a significant rewrite to change it.
Good day Venutius,
Much appreciated, Please look my website Thinkbox I’ve used Astra WordPress theme and Youzer plugin for rich look.
Thanks,

Perhaps you cannot see the ‘Log In’ link because you are already logged in.
In that case – log out and then reload the site.
Your site is hosted by wordpress.com – meaning you ( or somebody ) is paying them to host your site.
Therefore, you should use the support that is included with your purchase – you should contact them with your issue.
For now, click the ‘Log In’ link, then scroll down to ‘Create a new account’ and click it.
You don’t see a log in link on your site? Perhaps the term ‘log in’ is in swedish.
Deactivate the BuddyPress plugin and then try to register on your site.
If you do not understand how to to that, then please contact the support team at wordpress.com .
Since you are hosted on wordpress.com, you should ask their support.
For now, click the ‘Log In’ link, then scroll down to ‘Create a new account’ and click it.
That may not be what you want, so you should talk to wordpress.com support.
Hi there, another plugin to help you is https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-restrict-group-creation/ this will allow you to restrict members from creating more than one group.
If I updated this to include a restriction based on the number of group membership then that would help.
Looking at the code you’d also need to restrict the group join button showing so that it only shows for members not already in a group. How you do this depends on the BP Theme you are using, Legacy or Nouveau.
Ok I’ve added a very basic control, I’ll update this when I have time. you can give me your feedback at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bp-messaging-control/
I took a look at that plugin, it no longer works. So I’ve refreshed it here. https://github.com/Venutius/buddypress-component-stats however a lot of the functions never originally worked as far as I can see. I’ll try and get it fixed.
There’s another old plugin but this one still works – https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-member-profile-stats/ possibly not what you are looking for.
Glad you got it working. I can probably do something for @mentions, might not give the same level of control but I’ll look into it.
But could you post your comments over on the plugins wordpress forum? best keep this forum for BP related issues.
Thank you for the response. I reviewed both links and not sure if it answers my questions.
While I understand that your plugin will allow the member’s posts to show, it doesn’t answer my core question of what if we as administrators are the “author” of the post in WordPress and how we then associate a post with that member so it can then show?

I’ve got a BP specific front end editor – https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-site-post this adds a profile tab for the members posts list. I believe Brajesh’s https://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-simple-front-end-post/ does the same.
There this old plugin I found – https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-component-stats/ maybe you could try that?
The basic option is to set up a redirect for anyone but admin, that would involve adding some code to your functions.php. There’s probably plugins that d it, but it’s quite simple with code if you are happy with that.
That would not stop links from appearing in the WordPress admin-bar / toolbar. Would you still want to give them access to the BuddyPress menu options via the toolbar?
I’ve recently launched a BP specific Front End editor and I’ve included all the various hide admin code in that. You can choose to hide the admin-bar altogether or prune out the menu items you don’t want to display, such as the +New menu item.
I do not want members to have access to the wordpress dashboard – is this an option to switch off?
I found this post, not covering BP but useful for when you give editors the ability to manage users. could be of use.
Let Editor Manage Users in WordPress
Hi there, I got it working for ‘edit_users’ capability but I’ve had to make three changes to class-bp-members-admin.php to do it:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8072
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8069
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8070
For ‘bp_moderate’ it seems there are other issues this time seemingly coming from WordPress:
