Phew, that’s a relief 🙂

Good suggestion about the Email Options tab.

Use the Group Extension API: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/group-extension-api/

Most of the methods will be irrelevant to your purposes. function display() is what you’re looking for – that’s the part that will display the content of the tab.

Jonas – the only thing I can think of is a javascript conflict. Are you running other plugins that load scripts into the head of the document?

@hnla I have the same suspicion. That’s why I keep putting it off 🙂 In fact, I deleted my Facebook account not too long ago so it’s going to be hard for me to find a way to test a FB contact importer.

Thanks, @hnla and @dre1080. I have a suspicion that Facebook in particular has totally changed how their friends API works since the plugin you mention was last updated. But it’ll be a good place to start, at least.

Wow, you mean the plugin actually deleted the items out of your activity tables? To the best of my knowledge there is nothing in this plugin that’s even capable of deleting a single activity item.

Make sure that when using the Group Extension API, you change the class name and the name of the init method to match the name in bp_register_group_extension() call at the end. So, in the file that you sent me, since you say bp_register_group_extension( ‘New_Tab’ ), make sure that at the beginning of the file you […]

This is definitely on my list. I’m going to have a good hard look at plaxo to see how much of its code I can steal.

Are you signed in?

If you’re signed in and try to visit the register page (which is where the accept-invitation link goes), you’ll be redirected to the BP main page. Log out of BP and try again.

I must admit that I all the template redirection of BP and WP are somewhat magical and mysterious to me. What about just requiring the template? If you’re using the BP Group Extension API, you need to have a display() method; the content of the method could be to require the necessary template file. That’s […]

@xberserker – It’s a bit hard to tell just from that what’s going on. Put print_r($inviters) at the very beginning of the function just to see what the variable looks like.

@xberserker – I think that $inviters is an array. So you’ll probably need to do something like

foreach( $inviters as $inviter ) {
cp_alterPoints( $inviter, ......
cp_log( ...., $inviter .....
}

@xberserker – I’m afraid I don’t know how the function cp_alterPoints works. Try printing the content of $inviter_id and $invitee_id just to make sure that they’re being fed to the argument. Beyond that you’ll have to dig deeper into CubePoints to figure out what’s going on.

Yeah, I’ve been mulling that kind of change for a long time. I should talk to JJJ, as I know he’s been overhauling xprofile and had once mentioned including something like this in the core. Otherwise to write the JavaScript to do what you say wouldn’t be too hard.

10 is the priority, which is used to reconcile when different functions are hooked to the same action. 10’s the default, so putting it there doesn’t change anything, but it’s needed so that 3 is understood as the $accepted_args argument.
