Nice to see some movement on this one, but how do we actually use it?

[@gaysurfers Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

1 Upload bp-member-filter.php to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2 Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
3 Add a form to your members/index.php or some other file (See: http://pastebin.com/bw0suXwe )
4 Smile

Thanks @gaysurfers, that pastebin link is working !

Now, can’t still figure how this works…

[@gaysurfers Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

Same here!
I have installed it, copied the form to members/index.php
All it did was create a submit button + “by name” next to search
Wasn’t it supposed to add filters with my x-profile fields to filter the search?

This is major for me, I gots to know.

Submitting the form doesn’t seem to actually filter the results. Anyone have this working or know what we’re doing wrong?

[@chopo87 Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

Trying to revive this forum because the answer to it is really important. As apcjohn, Submitting the form is not enough. There must be a function to generate the result based on the form submission that must be called. And I’m to much of a PHP n00b to figure out which one it is from reeding through the source-code.

[@psyber Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

I need help with this as well. I have another plugin that relied on the old member filter, and now both do not function. My website is really failing without them.

[@chopo87 Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

@psyber Under what version of BuddyPress and BP Member Filters did you manage to get your site working? What code did you paste into members/index.php to get it working?

[@psyber Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

@chopo87 It was 1.2.1 and even then it was only that I had a custom plugin developed for my site that relied on the Member Filter Plugin. I have never seen the Member Filter Plugin in action and performing as it should.

[@chopo87 Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

@psyber Thanks for the info. Would you mind publishing your code? I would be really grateful if it is not to inconvenient. I don’t mean formally, just a link to an ASCII file or a .zip file on a file sharing site or something would be really cool.

[@psyber Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

It doesn’t work any more, and I don’t think I will be able to find the code since that was a few versions ago. Even then, the member filter was not being fully used. I am pretty pissed because I paid to have the plugin developed for my site, and it relied on the member filter which no longer works.

[@chopo87 Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

Why don’t you roll your version of buddy-press back to the one that supported the plugin? At least you get some functionality.
