Re: Please help – understanding Buddypress code without documentation
Instances of do_action() don’t actually do anything. They are just hooks for other plugins or themes to use. So, while I agree that there should be a great deal more documentation throughout the BP core, documentation for the do_action calls in bp-defaultisn’t really possible because of the simple fact that most of them are not actually used by BuddyPress itself.
If you would like to see where (or whether) a particular hook is being used by BP, search for that hook name in the context of an add_action() in the BP package.
And fyi, every user account here on buddypress.org should have edit access to codex.buddypress.org. Try visiting codex.buddypress.org/wp-admin. If you find you don’t have access, it’s an error – let me know and I’ll be happy to set it up.
