BuddyPress.org

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.

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 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/8069
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8070

For ‘bp_moderate’ it seems there are other issues this time seemingly coming from WordPress:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8071

I’ve raised another ticket, don’t think this will be the last as it’s still not working.

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8070

I’ve raised a ticket for this typo:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8069

Don’t think so, it’s not in the WordPress repository so it does not automatically send out an update. Once we’ve got it kicked into shape I’m going to suggest we launch it in WordPress, then you will see the updates.

This sounds like a great feature to add to my plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-messaging-control/ might take be a couple of weeks though. Why not raise a thread in my support forum and we can discuss how it would work?

Hi @irahulsolanki I just tested this again with the BP Legacy theme and I got the same results as you. could you raise a support ticket for this?

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

All I can suggest is that you raise a new feature request on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/

i think Yoast seo it’s the best seo plugin for wordpress you can use that

Have you looked at https://wordpress.org/plugins/nav-menu-roles/ that’s what I use to only display some menus to logged in members

Regarding changing the messages BuddyPress shows, you can create your own local translation file using the PoEdit application, see this doc:

Customizing Labels, Messages, and URLs

If you really want to disable the activation emails, there’s an old plugin which I think still works:

BP Disable Activation Reloaded

If you have issues with it let me know.

You can enable search for names by putting this code in your child themes functions.php:

add_filter( 'bp_activity_get_include_user_search', 'venutius_add_name_to_search' );

function venutius_add_name_to_search( $setting ) {
	return true;
}

Unfortunately there’s not a similar filter for the title, you could raise a feature request for this on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/

There’s an old plugin called BuddyPress Links which allows members to add links to a links directory and then other members can vote on those links. I think this would probably serve a similar function to what you want. However, it’s out of date and throws a lot of errors. I’ve been working on updating this and have asked the developer the code can be updated. I think for your requirement it would still need some changes so it recognises videos and embeds the video instead of a static thumbnail for the site. I think this is the closest BP has got to delivering what you want easily.

Alternatively there’s MediaPress which allows video links to be added to video galleries. You can also have a sitewide gallery that everyone can add videos to, this could serve as a basis for what you are looking for.

Another one I’ve just discovered is this: https://wordpress.org/plugins/dynamic-user-directory/ not tried it yet but maybe it will overload that page for you and work.
