BuddyPress.org

The URL to create a Group is http://example.com/groups/create/. Can you test that (obviously substituting your real domain) and let me us know if it works?

The URL that looks like /members/groups/create is suspicious, so if the above link does work, we’ll need to figure out what’s happening to the link you’re clicking, but one step at a time!

Do widgets work on non-BuddyPress specific pages? Such as, a site footer or sidebar. I am trying to understand if they are broken everywhere or only broken on BuddyPress screens.

If widgets generally do work, have you confirmed that a widget that does work, does NOT show up on the BuddyPress page? If so, what widget is that? (Just need one…[Read more]

Hi @israelle

It appears something is modifying the email that’s being sent. Clearly, that link is wrong and doesn’t even point to your webiste.

What web host are you using? And, please give a list of all the plugins you have active on your site.

Go to wp-admin -> Pages, and find the page called “register”. Edit it, then adjust the permalink to “create-new-user” like so: http://cdn2.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/edit-post-url.png

This should be all you need to do.

@ndsailor It sounds like you’ve got some development skills, so I’d suggest starting with some backtracing or debug statements in wp_insert_post or the like, and follow it upwards. I think we’re going to struggle to even begin to offer any meaningful guesses this far removed from the overall code. 🙁

Hi, you have to enable WP registration at Settings > General > Anyone Can Register:

http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-allow-user-registration-on-your-wordpress-site/

wp_insert_post() takes an array as its first param. post_date is set to the current time by default so something is setting it to 0000-00-00 00:00:00.

If you’re talking about BuddyPress activity items (not WordPress posts) then recorded_time also defaults to the current time. Again, in this case there must be something in your plugin that is…[Read more]

Hi r083r7-

Within the same site, you could write a short code that would render the profile. Outputting profile data is pretty straightforward: https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/guides/displaying-extended-profile-fields-on-member-profiles/

One another site, I’m less sure. You’d need BP API or similar, which we’re just now writing.

Check our…[Read more]

I really have no idea, but checking the code base, that error is thrown when a field type supports options (like a dropdown or checkbox set) and the data posted at save is unpopulated or is not an array. If you’re familiar with the developer tools in Firefox or Chrome, visit that page and submit the form, then see what the $_POST payload looks…[Read more]

Hi isavarg-

You’ll have to be logged out to see the registration or activation page, otherwise they redirect to the home page. Have you tried it while logged out?

Since it’s theme specific, your best choice is to create a child theme and override that template part when you don’t want to see the image. (There are lots of conditional you can use, like is_buddypress() which returns true on a BP page.)

It’s extremely unlikely that there will be a plugin that changes one aspect of a specific theme.

Child…[Read more]

Well… that sure is super odd. It’s working for me on a couple of sites.

Hi Dan,
Thank you for pointing @humiges in the right direction.

It was a theme issue for him as communicated on mail. The plugin works fine with current version of BuddyPress 2.6.2/WordPress 4.6

There are known problems with the member/group Cover Image features not using HTTPS URLs, but everything else ought to work if you configure WordPress to use HTTPS.

Thanks @DanBP

I can’t figure out how to do it with BuddyPress so I am asking for any opinions that could point me in a useful direction. My thought concerning bbPress was that maybe by adding forums I would be able to limit what the Group Leader and Students can see to just that groups user list.
So, my question isn’t how to get bbPress to do…[Read more]
