Lazy load will really speeds up a site, so it’s important to us. LiteSpeed Cache has image lazy loading which is compatible with the BuddyPress avatar uploading feature:

Thought that might help anyone who runs into this issue!
One solution I’ve found which works for BuddyPress and
Hello,
Hoping someone might be able to help me. I’m not able to get the avatar upload feature to work on any of my sites, it does the same thing on all of them, shows a small black box where the image uploads into and then only allows to crop a tiny part of the image resulting in very bad looking corner of an avatar.. Any help would be very much appreciated.
One of the pages I have the error on is: http://dev-greentv.pantheonsite.io/members/jaymcdonough/profile/change-avatar/ feel free to sign up to see the error on the profile that is created.
I’m using WordPress 5.0.2 and BuddyPress 4.1.0
Hi
I want to create a custom left menu for members.
http://mysiteurl/members/me/friends
the link does not work when I try this example. The section “[me]” remains the same. Should this field not appear as a user name?
I just want to create a left menu for members in the following way.
profile
messages
notifications
friends
settings
how can I do that?
WordPress : 5.0.1
Buddyppress : 4.1.0
versions I use
How can I edit the colors in BP extended profile area as well as the text? I need to remove the “white” background to either the color of my current theme or to something that’s not white.
Do I need to edit my sites theme CSS or is it BuddyPress CSS?
Wordpress V. 5.0.2
BP V. 4.1.0

Thanks in Advance.
take a look at https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-profile-shortcodes-extra/ in this plugin there’s a group members list shortcode, you should be able to pick up what you need from there.
As far as I can tell people on my site start the process of creating an account with membermouse. So, yeah, I will try creating a new account again and see what I can figure out. I’ve made a bunch of test accounts for myself – so maybe I used the same email or something. I need clean up and delete a bunch of those anyway now.
So does buddypress usually use the regular wordpress login user name? If a site just uses bbpress and buddypress – people set up an acccount just through wordpress and bbpress/buddypress use that?
One thing about this is that since group creation is open to all users, creating a group would be a simple way to get post creation rights. You may want to look at BuddyPress Restrict Group Creation to limit who can create a group in the first place.
hey, Venutius;
yeah, I’ve been getting some of those thrown at me per error log* as well, but had them not high on my issues list, as long as the general functionality of the parents in question appeared to be ok yet (as far as superficial verdicts go, I guess). :/
Perhaps I should carry the issues you spotted to the respective entity owner.
Beyond that: yeah, shortcodes in general appear to be working well. Should we perhaps try out any other of yoour shortcodes to display properly in that test post? Maybe that serves as more clue?
cheers – lx

( * : as far as log perusal goes, I like https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-log-viewer/ 🙂 for its grouping and filtering capacities; you may want to have a comparative look at that, perhaps.)
You’ll need to look at paid membership plugins.
There are some free versions in the WP repo.
With all the plugins deactivated apart from BuddyPress, did it work at all? Same goes with your theme. Do you have error logging switched on? I’m thinking there must be an error showing somewhere and you are just not seeing it.
See this page to see how to enable the error log https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress
The export data information should contain the personal information held by your plugins and wordpress, it should not contain data about plugins, I’m not sure how you would remove that, it’s not specifically a BuddyPress Question.
sorry, I only stumbled over your most recent response now. Apparently, this forum does not really send notifications on replies. Either way –
No, I’m not getting any errors. It just stays blank. I’ve tried 2 plugins to circumvent in the meantime (or rather drill into what they’re doing different, in case they work/ed), alas
which has me scratching my head.
I would very much prefer to get this going without having to use a plugin for a simple display job such as this. Bit I can’t seem to figure out why the solution I had in place stopped working.
Hi! it’s about a week I’m trying to add a notification counter to my Buddypress site’s menu, unfortunately without getting any results.
I have read many topics on this forum but I have not been able to use them because I do not have the php code skills and I have a site on WordPress.com (not wordpress.org), so it’s harder to edit the files.
So what I would like to know is: how can I add this counter to my menu using third-party plugins (eg “insert header and footers” or “code snippets”)? Is there a way to do it? I only need the counter because I’ve already created an icon in my menu that opens the notifications panel when clicked.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Thanks for the replies @shanebp & @espellcaste !
So my goal is to develop a tournaments component and I had an idea to take BuddyPress Docs and strip it since it has integrations to other components, which I also require. Do you guys think it could work?
We have 250,000 users and unless we deactivate BuddyPress – it’s extremely slow with BuddyPress?
I had posted this into forum but with no replies
Yet – current WordPress 5.0 and current BuddyPress.
Cloud SQL is running ar 100% we need to upgrade or contact buddy press team about the issue.
Please contact them and provide the below server details and ask for support.
1. Google Cloud VM Instance Ubuntu 18.04 (3.75 GB RAM)
2. PHP 7.2, Nginx + FastCGI cache, Opcache, Redis, WP-Rocket plugin
3. Cloud SQL for the database (3.75 GB RAM)
You’re right, there is no flag etc.
But having a ‘prevent’ flag on the call would not work, because the actual fetch is performed in the same function that does the grouping.
See get_grouped_notifications_for_user in bp-notifications\classes\class-bp-notifications-notification.php
So a flag that skips the $group_sql in that function would be useful.
You can open an enhancement ticket here. Reference this thread. Even better if you can attach a patch.
If you are creating new custom post types then you can just add the same field group to the new post types. Fields can have the same names when used on different post types.
If I understand what you doing though, I’d probably set up a custom taxonomy of location for the custom post type, then you can create separate lists for each location and only need to add one more template file to your theme “taxonomy-location.php”

thanks.
Solution found! It wasn’t a BuddyPress issue, it’s a wordpress issue!
I contacted WordPress and found a solution. I thought I’d post it in case it comes up with someone else again:
That should mean that single sign on is causing trouble. To test that, navigate to My Site –> Settings –> Security in your WordPress.com dashboard, and disable the ‘Allow sign in using WordPress.com accounts’ option
This means that you will no longer be able to access your wp-admin area with your WordPress.com login information though. We’ll need to make sure we set you up with an account for your wp-admin area.
We’ll need to set you up with a password for your username for wp-admin.
You’ll need to go to WP-Admin > Users and then select your username from the list.
The problem is that on WordPress.com the option to allow WordPress.com sign in replaces the regular registration form that BuddyPress uses to allow users to sign in. So we need to disable this option to let the user’s sign in using only their Buddy Press log in without a WordPress.com account.
Hope this helps someone else

Hey @Venutius, I have no idea what that is. My website uses Youzer. It’s possible that could be part of Youzer. I’ll contact Kaine Labs and see if they know anything.
Hi Bradley,
My first thought is – what is ub_signup_password that does not look like it’s coming from WordPress or BuddyPress but it’s the root of the issue according to this trace.
You’re referring to the About page on this site?
No, go to the websites or support sites for the plugins that you mentioned.
For example: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bp-xprofile-custom-field-types
btw – probably a good idea to update BuddyPress. V. 3.0 is old.
