Cool @henrywright-1 that’s got it. I found that showposts query, just wasn’t implementing it correctly. I owe you a pint (or 4).

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

OK it works really really well – except, it brings in not just the most recent, but 3 recent posts, can I limit the number?

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Oh it’s actually THAT simple? Thanks so much, I’m enjoying learning from you guys 🙂

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

@henrywright-1 that works!

I need to show the featured image, and link to the profile, so I added the following, but it’s just pasting the image URL, how do I add img src to that and the link to the post?

<?php
    $user_id = bp_get_member_user_id(); 
    $query = new WP_Query( 'author=' . $user_id );

    if ( $query->have_posts() ) {
        while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
            $query->the_post();
            //display title
            the_title();
            //display content
            the_content();
            //featured image
            the_field('featuredimage');
        }
    }

//reset for next member
wp_reset_postdata();
?>

Is there a way to do this? Thanks.

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Thanks @mercime – however, I’m already successfully showing users posts on their profile – see below. I’m doing this using posts-on-profile but it’s quite out of date:

What I can’t do, is show the most recent post for each user on the members list (on the members home page) – note the placeholder image on the right for each member:

Hope someone can help!

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Sorry to spam, but totally stuck on this, any ideas?

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

BP Xtra Signup worked well, although it’s 2 years out of date, it seems fine!

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

You’re right @henrywright-1 – just needed to upload the avatars again and it worked 🙂

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Hi there

I added this in, and it does get the avatar back but it doesn’t solve the problem. My original code returns the same stretched pixelated avatar, I really need to try and get the large version. See screenshot (mine on top, yours below)

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Ah so you think this can’t work as it stands @henrywright-1 ?

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Perfect!

Thanks SO much.

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Hi there

In the page template test I used your code exactly, within the profile.php file.

In the text widget I use the following (all of which work except Specialist Sectors):

`<div class=”<?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_id(), ‘Account Type’, true); ?>”>
“>
<?php if ( $sectors = bp_get_profile_field_data( ‘field=Specialist Sectors’ ) ) { ?>
<?php foreach ( $sectors as $sector ) { ?>
<?php echo $sector; ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>

“><h2 class=”profileHeader”> <?php echo get_the_author(); ?></h2>
<h2 class=”profileAccount”><?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_id(), ‘Account Type’, true); ?></h2>
<h3>Specialist Sectors</h3>

<h3>Telephone Number</h3>
<?php echo xprofile_get_field_data( ‘Telephone Number’, get_the_author_id()) ?>
<h3>Email</h3>
“><?php echo xprofile_get_field_data( ‘Contact Email Address’, get_the_author_id()) ?>

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Yes it works on profiles.php… but the text widget I use on a post page works for all the other xprofile fields?

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Ah ok thanks, this code doesn’t seem to return anything, can you help me with the error?

 <a href="/community/members/<?php echo get_the_author_meta('user_login') ?>"> <?php echo bp_core_fetch_avatar ( get_the_author_meta('user_email'), $size = '192' ); ?>
</a>

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Hi there

I’m using it in a text widget sidebar, which works for all the other fields.

The spelling is correct and there are multiple options selected.

Thanks,

Ian

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Unfortunately that is returning blank too @henrywright-1

Thanks

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

OK thanks…so I have switched it around as follows:

<?php echo get_the_author_id(), xprofile_get_field_data( 'Specialist Sectors', $multi_format = 'comma' ) ?>

I am now getting something returned, which is unique for each user but it’s returning a number, such as 52, 65 or 1 – I don’t know what these refer to.

Any ideas?

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Thanks all… @shanebp I’ve inputted the following but it isn’t showing anything, is my implementation incorrect?

<?php echo xprofile_get_field_data( 'Specialist Sectors', get_the_author_id(), $multi_format = 'comma' ) ?>

Thanks

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

I See.

Screenshot is here of what we are doing:

I am trying to use it in a sidebar widget on a post page. Using the following PHP in the text widget to get back users info:

<div class="<?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_id(), 'Account Type', true); ?>">
 <a href="/community/members/<?php echo get_the_author_meta('user_login') ?>"> <?php echo get_avatar ( get_the_author_meta('user_email'), $size = '192' ); ?>
</a>
<a  href="/community/members/<?php echo get_the_author_meta('user_login') ?>"><h2 class="profileHeader"> <?php echo get_the_author(); ?></h2></a>
<h2 class="profileAccount"><?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_id(), 'Account Type', true); ?></h2>
<h3>Specialist Sectors</h3>
<?php echo xprofile_get_field_data( 'Specialist Sectors', get_the_author_id()) ?>
<h3>Experience</h3>
<?php echo xprofile_get_field_data( 'Experience', get_the_author_id()) ?>
<h3>About</h3>
<?php echo xprofile_get_field_data( 'About you', get_the_author_id()) ?>

Thanks,

Ian

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 11 months ago]

Really trying to get this one sorted, can’t find a fix – anybody know?

[@applegateian Participant 12 years, 12 months ago]

Does anyone know of a way do get most recent post in the members loop for each author? Thanks.

[@applegateian Participant 13 years ago]

Can anyone help with this?

Thanks

[@applegateian Participant 13 years ago]

Anyone know if this is possible?

[@applegateian Participant 13 years ago]

I’ve fixed this, this was solved when there was an additional js file being called from the footer in the Reverie file:

<script src="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/js/jquery.min.js"></script>

Removing this duplicate fixed the issue.
