Not sure if this is the perfect way to do it, but here’s how I achieved what I was trying to do. This is in one of my templates:
<?php
global $bp, $friends_template;
$friend_status = friends_check_friendship_status( $bp->loggedin_user->id, $bp->displayed_user->id );
if ( $friend_status == ‘is_friend’ || $bp->loggedin_user->id == $bp->displayed_user->id ) {
?>
This checks to see if the user you’re looking at is a friend OR you, and then would display the information following it. You would then follow up with an else that shows the information non-friends see.
Even better:
<?php
global $bp, $friends_template;
$friend_status = friends_check_friendship_status( $bp->loggedin_user->id, $bp->displayed_user->id );
if ( $friend_status == ‘is_friend’ || bp_is_my_profile() ) { ?>
Even better!
Add this to your functions.php:
function bp_is_friend() {
global $bp;
if ( ‘is_friend’ == BP_Friends_Friendship::check_is_friend( $bp->loggedin_user->id, $bp->displayed_user->id ) )
return true;
return false;
}
Now you can drop bp_is_friend() in wherever you want to check if the displayed user is a friend of the logged in user, such as:
<?php if ( bp_is_friend() || bp_is_my_profile() ) { ?>
The above line checks if the displayed user is a friend or is the user.
hi, well ,it not work for me , is there another way?
This Would work….
`global $bp;
$loggedin_user_id = $bp->loggedin_user->userdata->ID;
$other_user_id = bp_get_member_user_id();
if($loggedin_user_id == $other_user_id){
$check_string = ‘its_me’ ;
}
else{
$check_string = friends_check_friendship_status( $loggedin_user_id,$other_user_id);
}
if ( $check_string == ‘is_friend’ ) {
/*Your Code Here*/
}
if ( $check_string == ‘not_friends’ ) {
/*Your Code Here*/
}
if ( $check_string == ‘pending’ ) {
/*Your Code Here*/
}
if ( $check_string == ‘its_me’ ) {
/*Your Code Here*/
}
?>`
You can also use this
$other_user_id = $bp->displayed_user->id ;
for the other user id
Here an update
`global $bp;
$loggedin_user_id = bp_loggedin_user_id();
$other_user_id = bp_displayed_user_id();
if($loggedin_user_id == $other_user_id){
$check_string = ‘its_me’ ;
}
else{
$check_string = friends_check_friendship_status( $loggedin_user_id,$other_user_id);
}
if ( $check_string == ‘is_friend’ ) {
//Your Code Here
echo “Is Friend”;
}
if ( $check_string == ‘not_friends’ ) {
//Your Code Here
echo “Not Friends”;
}
if ( $check_string == ‘pending’ ) {
//Your Code Here
echo “Pending”;
}
if ( $check_string == ‘its_me’ ) {
//Your Code Here
echo “Its You”;
}
`
If you are trying to have this within your child theme or somewhere like in authors.php below then you might want to have a small change.
`
global $bp;
$loggedin_user_id = bp_loggedin_user_id();
$other_user_id = $curauth->ID; // <<< a change to get the id of author
if($loggedin_user_id == $other_user_id){
$check_string = 'its_me' ;
}
else{
$check_string = friends_check_friendship_status( $loggedin_user_id,$other_user_id);
}
if ( $check_string == 'is_friend' ) {
//Your Code Here
echo "Is Friend";
}
if ( $check_string == 'not_friends' ) {
//Your Code Here
echo "Not Friends";
}
if ( $check_string == 'pending' ) {
//Your Code Here
echo "Pending";
}
if ( $check_string == 'its_me' ) {
//Your Code Here
echo "Its You";
}`
@funmi-omoba,
please open a new tread, this one is 3 years old, and give some details about your config (version, theme name) and what you want to do.
@opencode, thank you for sharing, but updating such old posts hasn’t much effect for most users. Also give some indication about BP version where your code will work on.
