BuddyPress.org

Delete your use of the add_action.

Research how to use a filter in WordPress.

Try :

function cami_field_value( $value, $type, $field_id ) {

     if ( $field_id == 123 ) {  // change 123 to the id of the field you want to change
         // adjust $value 
     }

     return $value;
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'cami_field_value', 1, 3 );

There’s two you could try, BuddyPress Docs which is a bit old but still works. Or my own plugin BP Post Status which is the new kid on the block.

BuddyPress Docs sets up it’s own post type and adds collaborative editing to it. This means that the editing experience is somewhat limited.

BP Post status uses standard posts and add group based statuses to it so that posts can be assigned as Group posts, members only friends only etc and since it uses posts (or any other post type) you can exxjoy the full classic editor or my own front end publisher – BP Site Post Note that Gutenberg does not support custom post statuses so it can only really be used in classic editor mode.

There’s a couple of other options, such as BuddyDev’s Blog Categories for Groups or if you are looking for a document library there BP Documents.

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8005 supposed to be fixed.

You can use https://wordpress.org/plugins/nav-menu-roles/

Yep but it would require custom code I would have said. There’s a BuddyPress filter called bp_current_user_can and a WordPress filter map_meta_cap you could hook into these, determine the user and situation and choose to allow the action accordingly.

Hi there, I can confirm this as an issue, would you like to raise this on trac to get it fixed?

BuddyPress uses the WordPress login page so any WordPress login page customiser will do that for you. Most have much the same features so just find one that’s still being maintained.

In WordPress each user role has a number of assigned capabilities, I’m looking for you to tell me a capability that the Member has that the visitor does not.

Possibly a good template plugin would be https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-xprofile-rich-text-field/ it’s got the filters and actions you’d need. It’s not straightforward, you’d need to extend the BP xProfile Field Type class in order to have it as part of the xProfile field type collection by the looks of things. I agree it would be nice to have it documented but we have what we have. Maybe one of you can strip down one of these plugins and write it up for the rest of us?

The other option is to ask either of the collection plugins to add your type to their collection?

Member is not part of WordPress’s default roles, so you must have created this using the user role editor you posted the link to. When you did that, you must have added some extra capabilities above the default subscriber, it’s one of those extra capabilities that we need.

I’ve a plugin for that: https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-restrict-group-creation/

@elrico13 try this https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp2wp-full-sync/

Did you try: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-disable-activation-reloaded/

Untested, but try:

function custom_format_buddypress_notifications( $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items, $format = 'string' ) {

    // New custom notifications
    if ( 'custom_action' === $action ) {
        
        $custom_title = "You have new custom notification";
        $custom_link  = get_permalink( $item_id );
        $custom_text  = "You have a new custom notification";

        // WordPress Toolbar
        if ( 'string' === $format ) {
            $return = apply_filters( 'custom_filter', '<a href="' . esc_url( $custom_link ) . '" title="' . esc_attr( $custom_title ) . '">' . esc_html( $custom_text ) . '</a>', $custom_text, $custom_link );

        // Deprecated BuddyBar
        } else {
            $return = apply_filters( 'custom_filter', array(
                'text' => $custom_text,
                'link' => $custom_link
            ), $custom_link, (int) $total_items, $item_id, $secondary_item_id );
        }

        return $return;

    }

}
add_filter( 'bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user', 'custom_format_buddypress_notifications', 20, 5 );

OK it’s live now: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-fan-page/

We’ve had a few requests for Fan Page functionality recently so I took a look at the announce group code to see what changes could be made to turn it into a fan page plugin. Other than changing the name to fan page I also noted that it did not prevent group members from creating new topics in the forum so I’ve forked the plugin and added those changes. Hopefully that will deliver something like what you are looking for. I’ll submit it to WordPress.org and let you know once it’s live.

There’s a plugin the converts a group to announce only, maybe that could be the basis of a fan page?

BuddyPress Announce Group

BuddyPress does not manage what happens to posts when a user is deleted, I think that’s a WordPress function.

Try something like this in the Additional CSS tab of the WordPress Customize area:

#forums-personal-li {
display:none;
}
