    Hi Brajesh,

    I disabled the “Role Based storage Limit” plugin then tried to upload some images to the new test gallery I made in your account, but after uploading 1 image at 1.09mb, it said I’ve reached the 5mb quota. I checked the test gallery you made – it has no images there so I believe it reached the 5mb after just one file.

    You can check the new error logs.

    Hello Brajesh,

    I would like to provide you with a log in because even though I can access the browser console, I would not be able to tell which error is meaningful in my situation.

    In order to give you an account, I need an email address for you. Could you send me a private reply with an email address so I can give that one an account? And what do you mean by “normal user” – do you mean as a front end user, or as an administrator?

    Thank you
    Stephanie

    Hello, I haven’t received an update about this and I just wanted to post a new message to bump this thread.

    Hello Brajesh

    Hope you had a good break.

    To answer your questions:
    1. I am uploading as a test user, not an admin, since the whole purpose is to let users sign up and use the site.
    2. Yes, I have a caching plugin active, I use LiteSpeed Cache.
    3. It is a normal wordpress site but I did add a subdomain to my site. Mediapress is installed on the main domain.

    Here is a screenshot to show you what I see when I upload files as a front end test user: https://prnt.sc/6nmUKVsh5bj-

    Also here are some more details:
    I have deactivated most plugins not specifically designed for buddypress*. The only non-buddypress plugins I have kept activated are Elementor, Woocommerce plugins, Code Snippets and LiteSpeed Cache.

    *I have another issue in that Mediapress is conflicting with another plugin (I am not quite sure which one yet but it is among the deactivated ones for this test) and it doesn’t let me upload files to the gallery (a red error appears next to the names of files I tried to upload and says there is a HTTPS error or something), shows a gallery with no thumbnail (only displays the default Mediapress thumbnail) and causes a critical error when I try to delete the gallery. I will open a separate thread for that if I can’t resolve it myself, but thought I’d mention what happens when I have third party plugins activated and when I don’t.

    Thank you

    Hello all,
    I have some related questions too.

    The default Buddypress registration form has a “username” field that we cannot edit. It also has a “name” field that would look like it only needs a first name. If user puts in a full name, there will be a space and this might cause issues. I would like to collect the user’s first and last name separately and display it on the member profile card.

    I have your plugin “BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types” but it does not have the first and last name field. This means users use the default “name” field when registering. I found this plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-xprofile-wp-user-sync/) that seems to collect the user’s first and last name separately, but it says if you have Buddypress 8.0.0 or higher, then you don’t need this plugin, as this functionality is in the quote: “built-in BuddyPress xProfile Fields.”

    Question 1: This “built-in BuddyPress xProfile Fields”, is that referring to your “BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types” plugin? Because without your plugin, the default Buddypress fields are not that diverse and it is not called “xprofile”.

    Question 2: As I said already, there is no option to add a first and last name field with the BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types plugin, so I still can’t collect the user’s first and last name separately.

    Question 3: @gamicord, what plugin did you use to create or alter the user member card and display the profile info on the card? I have not been able to get the user profile to show up on the member card.

    Question 4: On a semi-related topic, I would also like the first and last name to show up on the back end of WordPress with the respective fields. At the moment, anything registration form with any plugin that has a first and last name field, shows up as one name (with a space) in the wordpress dashboard -> users under the column “Name”. Is it possible to have a First and Last name field, so that they can be ordered alphabetically according to their first or last name?

    I have found and tested the suggestions on this page https://buddydev.com/hiding-users-on-buddypress-based-site/ and it worked for me so I will mark this as resolved now.

    For those who want to know how I did it: I used the main code for hiding users by user role written by Brajesh, then made the changes that user “Mitch” suggested and put it in the bp-custom.php file (Make a new text file and call it “bp-custom.php”, paste the code in, add the roles you want to exclude, and upload this to the hosting back end of your site to “wp-content/plugins”. I had about 5 user roles to exclude, so not a lot. If you want to exclude a lot, then I don’t know how to do it.

    Thank you
