maybe interim solution – autoassign a group admin at group creation (sample code, just need to have a account setup and replace the user_id. ie, in my case i use a dummy groupadmin user for all groups) http://etivite.com/groups/buddypress/forum/topic/quick-tip-auto-assign-member-as-group-mod-or-admin-to-new-groups/#topic though, i don’t know if that fixes the original issue with a legacy creator_id (then again, i [...]

you can add allowed tags via the filter bp_forums_allowed_tags but deep within bbPress there is another hook for add_filter('pre_post', 'bb_encode_bad'); and will convert certain tags. (look at the file bp-forums/bbpress/bb-includes/functions.bb-formatting.php)

@djpaul @nuprn1 – Thanks for the help guys: calling the second loop bp_has_activities() with a full set of parameters overrode the default settings for the page and fixed the problem.

@nuprn1 – yes, they were running sequentially, but the second one was just returning the same activities as the first. As @djpaul suggests, I’ll make sure it’s getting a fuller set of parameters passed in its bp_has_activities() initiation, to keep it showing all activities. Hopefully, this should fix the PHP call. It’s late here – I’ll leave [...]

missed your first reference – why not just call bp_has_activities() sequentially on the page?- all the templatetags reference the global $activities_template

@djpaul, @nuprn1 – I ran into a stack of problems with this approach: 1. A call to make a new BP_Activity_Template requires a full set of parameters (it doesn’t default them). 2. All the bp_ functions, e.g. bp_has_activities() work on a single global activities template ($activities_template) 3. The methods (functions) you can call directly on the BP_Activity_Template [...]

i have in the past (which has been refined and fixed with the compat mode flag) – whenever i dump BP on top of an established wordpress blog, the flag is a must. (comes down to the displayname tolerances in the wp_users table )

@djpaul, @nuprn1 : I was thinking both the AJAX and the PHP switching tabs (e.g. between Personal, Friends, etc. on the Profile .. Activity page). I have a mini activity sidebar widget that’s permanently around showing all site activity. When a user is on a profile activity page, there is also the main activity stream. Essentially, I [...]

the only problem you might have is the ajax cookies used to define the request of the activity filtering – if you have multiple activities and the filter options, a conflict might occur with the returned data.

That is no good if you think there’s a bug with the username validation, @nuprn1. If you can get it to fail on a username that should be valid per the regex, submit a bug ticket.

the theme file /groups/create.php contains the html code for selecting the group_status levels (but also note – this is used when editing the group settings too)

theme (or create a child theme) /forums/forums-loop.php – within the while bp_forums_topics() loop

the following functions are available:

@dwenaus http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-buddypress-restrict-group-creation-deletes-group-tags – can you look into this conflict?

some css changes are required too
http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/major-theme-pain/

the activity permalink for the member’s activity is a little different. a few topics have been mentioned on here about it but you can modify a child theme file for members/single/activity/permalink.php

running any cache plugins?

groups_get_total_group_count() is wp_cache and is removed on the action groups_group_deleted

as for deleting a group and the associated bbPress table – correct, currently BuddyPress does not remove it from the bb_forums table (or even removing other data – topics, etc – http://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2613 )

alright!
