BuddyPress.org

All I can say is that BP is using the following WordPress function to get the url for the group:

get_home_url( bp_get_root_blog_id() )

So your WordPress thinks the home url is http

I’ve not got a solution extacty but an alternative is to allow the user to add video embeds using either https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-user-widgets/ or https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-profile-home-widgets/ I don’t think there are any profile field options that allow embeds.

Hi there Ivan, there’s a plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-auto-group-join/

So long as you have groups enabled then you should see create group in the Groups page, and also as an option in the WordPress toolbar under groups.

This is probably more to do with how you’ve setup WordPress rather than BuddyPress. BuddyPress redirects based on what WordPress thinks is the right URL for the site, it does not hard code https, but simply get the site address from WordPress.

These are the support forums for BuddyPress.
You have a better chance of getting an answer if you use the support forum for Buddypress Group Email Subscription .

The plugin you mention should do the job.
But these are not the support forums for that plugin.
You should ask your question on the support forum for that plugin:

Howdy
I’m trying to make a social networking for a radio station I do not know css html or php when I install wordpress in english and install buddypress all goes well but when i install it in romanian then buddypress nouveau turns in buddypress medern template and with it selected I’m giving this error to the profile page of each member <span class = “count”> 2 </ span> friend 2

Yes this issue has been reported:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8067

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.

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.

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.
