Hi,
So, i’ve got my bp_nav customized in the order I want, only thing is there is one tab that i cant control. the ‘posts’ tab. I geuss its name value isnt ‘posts’ because attempting to rename it has no effect..
I have this code working and can rename any of the other tabs.. but just not posts.. What is its value? Im totally stumped. The codex doesnt list its values..
I want to do this:
$bp->bp_nav = __( ‘new-name’, ‘buddypress’ );
but i dont know what the properly value is! its not ‘posts’! Any ideas?

How are you reordering bp_nav items to begin with? You might try putting the following code right after you call the global $bp:

echo '

';

print_r($bp->bp_nav);

echo '

';

That’ll show you all the items in bp_nav.

epic. I’m reordering the nav like so:

function erocks_change_bp_tag_position()
{
global $bp;

$bp->bp_nav = 10;
$bp->bp_nav = 20;
$bp->bp_nav = 30;
$bp->bp_nav = 40;
$bp->bp_nav = 50;
$bp->bp_nav = 60;
$bp->bp_nav = 70;
$bp->bp_nav = 80;
$bp->bp_nav = __( ‘My Profile’, ‘buddypress’ );
$bp->bp_nav = __( ‘Gigs & Posts’, ‘buddypress’ );

}
add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘erocks_change_bp_tag_position’ );

inside my bp_custom admin bar plugin php file
but the second one doesnt respond..

Thanks for your suggestions. I checked it out, and I have the name right. It looks like I am calling the posts tab correctly, but it is getting overridden somewhere else… lame

One thing you might try is making sure that your modifications get applied later in the process. Change your add_action line to

add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘erocks_change_bp_tag_position’, 999 );

It’s a long shot, but it might work.

Yah, the 999 is good to remember, but it isnt helping here..

so basically I figure that is getting written over. because when i change the name to anything else, it displays, but if i call it posts, it does nothing which makes me think its working properly, just getting overwritten down the way..

So, basically I figure i’ll just do this:

function erocks_change_bp_tag_position()
{
global $bp;

$bp->bp_nav = 20;
$bp->bp_nav = $current_user->user_login . ‘/posts’;
$bp->bp_nav = __( ‘Gigs’, ‘buddypress’ );

}
add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘erocks_change_bp_tag_position’, 999 );

Basically this method works. but it doesnt register the slug… If I could get that sorted, I’d be set. any assistance would be appreciated

[erikshosting]

so $bp->bp_nav = (‘../posts’); changes the slug.. that takes care of that.
only problem is. I need the menu to show up for logged out users as well.
would this be wp_users_nav? if so i can’t seem to get the syntax of that down..

[erikshosting]

Anyway. Now that its all said and done. I’m still upset I cant affect the ‘posts’ bp_nav tab. I’ve got it down, I change the of any other tab and it works. just not the ‘posts’ tab.

I have tried this in a /plugins/ file, a /mu-plugins/ file and the child theme functions… no luck.

function erocks_change_bp_tag_position()
{
global $bp;

$bp->bp_nav = 10;
$bp->bp__nav = 20;
$bp->bp_nav = 35;
$bp->bp_nav = 40;
$bp->bp_nav = 50;
$bp->bp_nav = 60;
$bp->bp_nav = 70;
$bp->bp_nav = 80;
}
add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘erocks_change_bp_tag_position’, 999 );
