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]

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.

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]

Found the solution with the following code:

Restrict in single group
function restrict_activity_posting_for_specific_group( $can_post, $user_id, $group_id ) {
// The ID of the group you want to restrict posting in (replace with the actual group ID)
$restricted_group_id = 123; // Example group ID

// Only apply the restriction to the…[Read more]

I managed to locate the issue. After the wordpress update, it was not allowing my translations for the xprofile fields anymore. For some reason it has to be English now, it is no longer allowing it to be Dutch. I’ll flag this with the WordPress development team.

I’ll close the ticket, as the issue is likely not because of Buddypress but because…[Read more]

Unfortunately this plugin breaks the “groups” settings from backend and comes up with a critical error, so if anyone has a solution, please let me know. 🙂
