In reply to: Edit "new post"-activity content
Thanks for your help. But I am confused, I don’t seem to be able to apply the filters?
I tried `apply_filters (‘bp_activity_excerpt_length’, 500);` which doesn’t make a difference. If I try it with add_filter it gives unexpected value error.BTW what is the difference between the excerpt length from bp_activity_truncate_entry and the excerpt length from bp_create_excerpt? Is the first one solely for the activity stream?
Same goes for bp_activity_excerpt_append_text vs. bp_excerpt_append_text.Thanks for your help,
RuudIn reply to: Create Account Page Help (see pic)Not sure if this is what your looking for, but there is a plugin that converts all instances of displayname to username.

.It hasn’t been updated in a while, but last time I used it it worked fine.
In reply to: Edit "new post"-activity contentNot sure why but this forum keeps cutting out links / random parts of my post.
The second piece should be, for the content above to make sense:
`remove_filter( ‘bp_create_excerpt’, $length, $options );
function pnb_excerpt(){
$lenght = 500;
$options = array(
‘ending’ => __( ‘ […]’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘exact’ => false,
‘html’ => false,
‘filter_shortcodes’ => $filter_shortcodes_default);
}
add_filter( ‘bp_create_excerpt’, $length, $options );
`Either way tried both of them.
Thanks,
RuudIn reply to: Edit "new post"-activity contentSo I think I found the part that creates / modifies the excerpt. It is in bp-core-template.php. Starting at line 353.
`/**
* Truncates text.
*/
function bp_create_excerpt( $text, $length = 225, $options = array() ) {
// Backward compatibility. The third argument used to be a boolean $filter_shortcodes
$filter_shortcodes_default = is_bool( $options ) ? $options : true;$defaults = array(
‘ending’ => __( ‘ […]’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘exact’ => false,
‘html’ => true,
‘filter_shortcodes’ => $filter_shortcodes_default
);
$r = wp_parse_args( $options, $defaults );
extract( $r );// Save the original text, to be passed along to the filter
$original_text = $text;// Allow plugins to modify these values globally
$length = apply_filters( ‘bp_excerpt_length’, $length );
$ending = apply_filters( ‘bp_excerpt_append_text’, $ending );// Remove shortcodes if necessary
if ( $filter_shortcodes )
$text = strip_shortcodes( $text );``remove_filter( ‘bp_create_excerpt’, $length, $options );
function pnb_excerpt(){
$lenght = 500;
$options = array(
‘ending’ => __( ‘ […]’, ‘buddypress’ ),
‘exact’ => false,
‘html’ => false,
‘filter_shortcodes’ => $filter_shortcodes_default);
return apply_filters( ‘bp_create_excerpt’, $length, $options );
}`I also tried with apply_filter, and without the remove_filter.
How do I overwrite the defaults? (The $length, and the $options array).Thanks in advance,
RuudIn reply to: [Resolved] Single Activity URLFound the answer, was looking at the wrong place.
Not sure if this is the way to go but to get the permalink of the activity use:
`bp_activity_get_permalink`So I used a variable then echo the variable in the comment link like this:
`activity->id, $activities_template->activity ) ?>
<a href="” class=”button acomment-reply bp-primary-action” id=”acomment-comment-“><?php printf( __( 'Comment %s‘, ‘buddypress’ ), bp_activity_get_comment_count() ); ?>`UPDATE:
Use “
Thanks,
