Oops, I forgot to change the numbers. Yes, everything should work fine with latest versions of BP and WP.

If you’re a plugin author, be sure to read this blog post about changes in how component slugs are created and stored in the $bp global in BP 1.3: http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2011/01/18/component-slug-vs-root_slug-in-bp-1-3/

Killer 😉
Boone Gorges posted on the forum topic Adding meta data to activity in the group Creating & Extending: 13 years, 10 months ago

I haven’t tested, but the addition of a function like the top one I’ve added here should do the trick:
http://pastebin.com/De0Ka1u7

You’ll need a corresponding function to delete that activity meta.
Boone Gorges posted on the forum topic Adding meta data to activity in the group Creating & Extending: 13 years, 10 months ago

I don’t see anything in your code that would actually save the activity metadata. Maybe you forgot to paste it in the pastebin? Where are the functions activity_remove_user_promoted() and activity_add_user_promoted() defined?

The Getting Started section of the BuddyPress Codex is a good guide: https://codex.buddypress.org/home/

This is how it’s done on buddypress.org: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/mentions-show-up-on-personal-activity-streams-like-they-do-here-on-bp-org/#post-77720

If you have more questions, I suggest that you start a forum topic, so that you might be able to get help from people other than just me.

Boone Gorges posted on the forum topic wiki recommendations in the group Third Party Components & Plugins: 13 years, 10 months ago

It really depends on what you want to do with the wiki. If it’s going to be a workspace for individual members or BP groups, I would recommend something like https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-wiki/, or the new plugin that I’m building with @dwenaus https://github.com/boonebgorges/buddypress-docs If you want your wiki to be more along the…[Read more]
Boone Gorges posted on the forum topic How to hide # of replies in activity if there are ZERO replies in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 13 years, 10 months ago

Not really. That string is concatenated more or less literally. You could make a language pack that takes away the number, but in that case it would be gone in all instances, whether or not there were replies.

Boone Gorges posted on the forum topic Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_user_meta() While installing locally in the group Installing BuddyPress: 13 years, 10 months ago

No need to get snippy, gee whiz.

The error suggests that you are using a version of WordPress less than 3.0. You say the latest version of 3.0 – what does that mean? The latest version of WP is 3.0.4

Thanks for the heads up. There is already a ticket open for the first issue:

Boone Gorges posted on the forum topic Question about integrating with BuddyPress registration /register in the group Creating & Extending: 13 years, 10 months ago

What are you going to use the extra usermeta for? If you just need an easy way to store and retrieve some data about individual users, then using BP xprofile fields is really the easiest way to go – they can be created in the Dashboard, and all the registration markup & save/retrieve functions are […]
Boone Gorges posted on the forum topic why must there be _e() everywhere? (a newbie writes) in the group Miscellaneous: 13 years, 10 months ago

It is a translation function. Wrapping ‘Blog Posts Feed’ in _e() ensures that it appears in the .po file that translators use to create language packs. The ‘buddypress’ argument ensures that it is associated with the ‘buddypress’ textdomain (since potentially the same string might be translated in different ways when part of different software…[Read more]

wp-config.php of your wordpress installation directory. Also bb-config.php in the same directory if you are using forums.
Boone Gorges posted on the forum topic Only Show Members with Avatars in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 13 years, 10 months ago

I have done something similar. The reason why you can’t do it automatically is that avatar information is not stored in the database. You can get around this by creating some database content corresponding to avatars. There is a do_action hook near the end of the avatar upload process. Hook your own custom function to […]
