I use Nouveau by the way

If this doesn’t work for you, it would be nice to get access at least to the site to troubleshoot the issue from there. I don’t have a ton of time to troubleshoot lol, but I would like to give it a try. Hopefully it can be fixed to work as intended so you can move on with something more fun to do than troubleshooting the same issue for days l…[Read more]

I think I understand what your issue if yes, but still sounds wierd to me lol.

Anyways, you could try add this snippet code into a WPcode PHP snippet and see if it will do the trick for you by setting up default sorting to be by display name.

Hi there,

I had the issue with posting a reply yesterday too. Weird.
That is why I split my message in 2 and than I could post it.

I was able to read your share txt and the next replies and also view that images.

Anyway… I am willing (if you are willing to put the time in it) to give you access to my staging site, but I rather not post the…[Read more]

If you want the “Name” (display name) to always be set by default to “username”, you can add this code into your functions.php (or preferable using the Snippet Code plugin WPCode – with a PHP snippet code).

This should setup the default display name to always show the “username” when creating new user profiles.

// Function to set the display…[Read more]

Hello again @forinn

I hate to make a different txt-document since it would not let me upload a longer answer in here and then started to refuse because of duplicate posting. Anyways, see my attached answer from the link below.

Hope it helps! 🙂

@forinn I’m trying to upload a reply, but it’s not letting me lol. I’m getting back to you with an answer asap when it lets me post.

Also from my side, very much appreciated all the help and effort -> sorry for not mentioning that before! I was so hyperfocussed on the issue that I forgot human interaction.

Anyways, again, thank you.

@forinn no worries, I totally know the feeling lol. I just love the troubleshooting part so for me this is a fun problem to try and figure out…[Read more]

I just wanted to thank @dreampixel for the support they are giving here on the site. It’s very refreshing. Usually no help whatsoever is offered by any of the people behind Buddypress. None.

Hello @thinlizzie 🙂

I’m by no means an expert or anything lol, but I’ve been playing around with WordPress and numerous different large setups for the p…[Read more]

Screenshot of test user “debugger” field information in bp_xprofile_data:

On the screenshot you can see field name 1 (Name) come in as “Annie”. So, this is not the same field and not the display name. The display name CAN become “Annie”, when i choose to change it after I edit my profile, but not as standard, than it will…[Read more]

Anyways, again, thank you.

To further empathize what I mean with the display name is this:

test?

Also please note that the name field marked in the Users > Profile Fields with “(Primary)” IS the display name itself. This should be the field users use upon registration of their user – and this is also the field the BuddyPress Member Directory uses to sort content Alphabetical.

Hello again 🙂

This might start to make sense then!

First, when you translate something within the code itself (not using a translation plugin and po/mo file) it will for the most part be overridden whenever you update your WordPress / plugins that are translated. So, this might be why it doesn’t work now after the update.

I personally use a c…[Read more]

Also, I am no longer able to customize the order of my members list. I was using default alphabetical, but also that function no longer works.

On second thought… this is within the Buddypress coding, so something that must have changed for WordPress 6.7 is not interacting correclty anymore with Buddypress.

The “Alphabetical” sorting of the user list is sorting on the “Name” base field of bp_xprofile_data table (field 1). This field I had renamed to “Naam” (which is Dutch for Name).…[Read more]

Sounds weird, since I’m also using the user fields (xProfile fields) – my site is translated into Danish, but my site-admin back-end it set to English. This is due to it being easier to find items in the menu when troubleshooting (hate when settings and so on is translated lol).

So seems weird to me if the translation part of it is causing the…[Read more]
