BuddyPress.org

Thanks for the update @antdevine, glad you fixed the issue.

This sounds like a problem with the edit profile screen rather than your registration hook.

I don’t have a Windows phone to test this but feel free to open a Trac ticket to report the issue:

buddypress.org is open source so feel free to check out the theme’s code.

Hi Ben,

You are correct that it’s best to leave the bp stylesheet in place so that you get updates to that file. You can add a custom stylesheet, though, and increase the selector power of the rule, so that it overrides the bp.css rule, like .site #buddypress #item-body { border-left: none; }

Hi pckelly123: WP Better Emails works well for applying a template to all mail sent via the function wp_mail(), which is what the group email subscription plugin uses.

For a recruitment site, can buddy press have different account types for employers and employees?

Yes. Check out Member Types:

You could be using the thumb sized avatar. Check your theme to make sure the full sized image is being used. bp_core_fetch_avatar() is the function used by BuddyPress to display avatars but there’s also get_avatar() so check for that too (it’s a WordPress function).

It’s not really a Mailgun support problem. It’s just that BuddyPress requires a different email interface to what WordPress needs. I hope in time people will build these for BuddyPress, but for now, you’ll need a developer to build it out for you.

If you know PHP and the basics of how to build with WordPress, I can give you hints.

Use the Repair Tools under wp-admin Tools > BuddyPress. There’s one to reinstall emails.

Emails not sending in HTML means you probably have some plugin active that redeclares the wp_mail function — this doesn’t make sense to non-developers, I admit, but if you have any plugins that do things with emails for WordPress, that’s the likely candidate.

I doubt you’ll find a folder with them in it; instead, they probably get added to the database as part of the BuddyPress install routine. Try installing BuddyPress on a fresh copy of WordPress to see if they suddenly show up.

That’s strange!

Without customising anything, I see this on my install:

@djpaul did all of the Email API heavy lifting, perhaps he knows if there should be items in the list by default?

Take a look at the bp_email_get_schema() function for the default messages used.

Is it necessary to create emails for each situation to make sure emails go out?

There should be default items in that list. Did you delete them?
