So, basically just download a whole load and then open them up and have a look?

If you want to know for sure then I guess you’ll need to do this.

My guess is there is a php closing tag followed by a newline in one php file.

This is likely the cause. The next step is finding where. How do you know it’s a BuddyPress issue?

You can get the value of an xProfile field in BuddyPress quite easily but you will need to use code. Take a look at this article to get started:

Displaying Extended Profile Fields on Member Profiles

Thanks.

Based on that info, I decided I need to add an index.php to my /single/ folder. I created the file, but I’m not sure what to put in it.

Can you give me an example of what I can do? Or link me to a page with further explanation? I tried googling “custom buddypress template,” but I don’t even know if my search query is correct.

BP Simple Private

This question is forum related so try asking over at bbPress.

bp_search_form() isn’t really used these days. Try bp_directory_members_search_form() instead. The function will output a search form so no need to use echo.

Hi thejameshardy

Which file are you adding bp_search_form() to?

This isn’t possible in BuddyPress “out-of-the-box”. You’ll need to find a plugin or introduce some custom code.

You should have them in your plugin folder. Try looking here wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress

You can check if either of these two directories exist inside the theme:

buddypress
community

If either of these exist, the content inside is specific to BuddyPress and will likely be custom.

@6logics – Thanks! This is exactly what I needed to effect the use of BuddyPress email templates with Postman SMTP.

It’s a shame the core code has to be modified, but until some sort of filter can be provided (eg, “bp_email_force_use_of_templates”), this seems to be our only recourse. Perhaps something along the lines of:

Cause using hooks is more sustainable and less likely to have conflicts in the future?

Possibly but the template hierarchy is integral to BuddyPress and use is encouraged. If you find a water-tight alternative way of doing it then by all means use that approach instead.

@cameronjonesweb

Why are you unhooking the reg form from the content? I think the BuddyPress template hierarchy can help you here.

Template Hierarchy

You can just nuke the reg form from your-child-theme/buddypress/members/register.php and then add your custom form.
