How to manually add a NEW buddypress member WITH blog in the backend???

How can I manually add a NEW buddypress member including their blog address in the backend ?

I see how to create a new blog, and wp users but nothing to actually add everything at once?

    Hiya,

    How can I manually add a NEW buddypress member including their blog address in the backend ?

    You can do this via the ‘Site Admin > Blogs’ page. If you want the username to be different from the blogname then you’ll need to create a user on the ‘Site Admin > Users’ page first.

    Btw, let’s go easy on the question marks in the thread title :wink:

    Thanks,

    Andrew

    On the backend, i only see adding the blog/user/email none of the other fields………..

    Those extra fields are added by BuddyPress and unfortunately there aren’t any hooks on the admin panel form to add extra fields. So if you must use the fields then you’ll either have to create a custom plugin or use the frontend form.

    I feel your pain on this one though. We’d *love* for there to be a few hooks on that admin panel form so we can integrate our own plugins with it.

    Thanks,

    Andrew
