Trying to Run a if group = "this name"
-
Im trying to match group names to a predefined list so that I may only output the groups which match the list.
I’ve tried this
<div id="localphone">
<?php if ( bp_has_site_groups() ) : ?>
<div class="pag-count" id="group-dir-count">
<?php bp_site_groups_pagination_count() ?>
</div>
<div class="pagination-links" id="group-dir-pag">
<?php bp_site_groups_pagination_links() ?>
</div>
<?php while ( bp_site_groups() ) : bp_the_site_group(); ?>
<?php $localNetwork = bp_the_site_group_name() ?>;
<?php if ($localPhone== Brighton || $localPhone==Test Group)
<dl>
<dt><a href="http://business-chamber.com/featured-<?php bp_the_site_group_name() ?>/" title=""><?php bp_the_site_group_avatar_thumb() ?></a></dt>
<dd><?php bp_the_site_group_name() ?></dd>
</dl>
<?php }
else {
echo
}
?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else: ?>
<div id="message" class="info">
<p><?php _e( 'There were no groups found.', 'buddypress' ) ?></p>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>Can anyone shed any light on why that won’t work. Its basically I’ve got a list of 50 or so that I want shown and then to pull in the name of each and the gravatar. I’m trying to do this in the bphome theme by the way, in a custom page.
Cheers in advance for any help!!!.

Put quotes around your conditional cases.
eg.
if ($localPhone== Brighton || $localPhone==Test Group)to:
if ($localNetwork== "Brighton" || $localNetwork=
"Test Group")See if that works.
[EDIT]
Also $localPhone isn’t defined… you want to use $localNetwork instead.
I haven’t had time to dive into the logic, but it looks quite sound.
What happens when you echo $localNetwork?
Try bp_get_the_site_group_name() instead of bp_the_site_group_name().
When I have some more time, I might give it another shot.
Hopefully someone else can help you out by then!
I’d also recommend getting acquainted with the bp-groups/bp-groups-templatetags.php.
It’s your bible to BP Groups!
I have tried it, with this code
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content" class="widecolumn">
<h2 class="widgettitle"></h2>
<div id="localphone">
<?php if ( bp_has_site_groups() ) : ?>
<div class="pag-count" id="group-dir-count">
<?php bp_site_groups_pagination_count() ?>
</div>
<div class="pagination-links" id="group-dir-pag">
<?php bp_site_groups_pagination_links() ?>
</div>
<?php while ( bp_site_groups() ) : bp_the_site_group(); ?>
<?php $localPhone = bp_get_the_site_group_name() ?>;
<?php if ($localPhone="Manchester" || $localPhone="Test Group") {
echo '<dl>';
echo '<dt><a href="http://business-chamber.com/featured-<?php bp_get_the_site_group_name() ?>/" title=""><?php bp_get_the_site_group_avatar_thumb() ?></a></dt>';
echo '<dd><?php bp_get_the_site_group_name() ?></dd>';
echo '</dl>';
} else {
echo 'hello';
}
?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else: ?>
<div id="message" class="info">
<p><?php _e( 'There were no groups found.', 'buddypress' ) ?></p>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>Im now getting
;
;
hello;
I definately have the 2 test groups there and it is doing something right, as in only returning the hello for the last one where I don’t have a || condition.
<?php $localPhone = bp_get_the_site_group_name() ?>;Remove the semi-colon from the end and that will get rid of the echo problem.
I assume you meant:
<?php $localPhone = bp_get_the_site_group_name(); ?>The if statement should be:
<?php if ( ($localPhone="Manchester") || ($localPhone="Test Group") ) {
