Paul Schacht replied to the topic Missing Activity in Feed for Public Site in the forum Help & Support 1 month ago

That did it, Ray! Thanks!!

I’m not concerned about backfilling at this point – just wanted to figure out what was blocking the activity from appearing. I’d noticed that setting and should have thought to try changing it. I see that it also affects email notifications.

Anyway, thanks again!

Hi Paul,

For your group blog, can you check the “Search Engine Visibility” setting under “Settings > Reading” in the WP admin dashboard? Ensure “Discourage search engines from indexing this site” is unchecked and save.

Unfortunately, there isn’t an automated tool to backfill older blog posts and comments into the group activity stream. You can…[Read more]

Hi again,

For one of the public groups at http://sunygeneseoenglish.org, the only activity that shows up in the group feed is “Group Memberships.” Blog posts, comments, etc. do not show up on the group’s home page or in site-wide activity.

The group’s home page is https://sunygeneseoenglish.org/groups/reader-and-text/

By contrast, this group’s…[Read more]

Thanks, Ray!
Ray replied to the topic BuddyPress 3.2.0 in the forum Help & Support 4 months, 1 week ago

Hi Paul,

We’re going to officially support BuddyPress 3.2.0 in our next major release of CBOX scheduled in the next month or so.

Until then, similar to your previous post about CBOX Theme and the activation key problem, there are also some additional issues that I’ve outlined…[Read more]
Paul Schacht started the topic BuddyPress 3.2.0 in the forum Help & Support 4 months, 2 weeks ago

On one of the CBOX sites I maintain, I manage my plugins outside CBOX. I’m wondering if there’s any reason not to upgrade BuddyPress to 3.2.0.

Thanks!

Paul Schacht replied to the topic Activation Key in the forum Help & Support 5 months, 3 weeks ago

I edited registration/activate.php and registration is now proceeding smoothly. Thanks again, Ray!
Paul Schacht replied to the topic Activation Key in the forum Help & Support 5 months, 3 weeks ago

Thanks as always for the prompt reply, Ray! I will make this change and let you know how it goes!
Ray replied to the topic Activation Key in the forum Help & Support 5 months, 3 weeks ago

Hi Paul,

You mentioned in a previous post that you manually upgraded to BuddyPress 3.0.

BuddyPress 3.0 changed the activation routine to always ask for the activation key from the activation email and for the user to manually submit the form. The CBOX theme needs to be updated so the activation key is automatically added to the form field to…[Read more]
Paul Schacht started the topic Activation Key in the forum Help & Support 5 months, 3 weeks ago

My new registrants are suddenly receiving a request to “provide a valid activation key” after clicking the activation link in the email they receive after registering.

I can see that this request is generated by a few lines in activate.php, but I don’t know what’s suddenly triggering the behavior.

In recent weeks I successfully implemented a…[Read more]
Michelle Morales started the topic Buddpress Profile Activity in the forum Help & Support 6 months, 1 week ago

I have a question about my site on Wordpress. We use BuddyPress and have one main site, with various child sites. We have profile pages on the main site that feed from the child sites and show our members activity: https://futuresinitiative.org/members/mmorales/

For one particular child site: https://futuresinitiative.org/mentors, we see no…[Read more]

Update: The problem was with wp-cron… it seems like a known problem on some WordPress installations. Replacing it with good old cron fixed the problem.
Basem Aly replied to the topic Member ID number in profile URL in the forum Help & Support 8 months, 3 weeks ago

Thank you, Ray. That was extremely helpful. I fixed it with a MySQL query.
Ray replied to the topic Member ID number in profile URL in the forum Help & Support 8 months, 3 weeks ago

In your LDAP setup, you probably synced the LDAP user ID to the user_login and user_nicename DB fields in the wp_users table.

If you want BuddyPress to use something else for the profile URL, you can set the username in the user_nicename DB field and BuddyPress will use that for the user profile URL.

Keep in mind that this might break whatever…[Read more]
