calvinhsu started the forum topic Editable group slugs would be great. in the group Requests & Feedback: 13 years, 10 months ago

In current bp installation, when a group is created, the url is automatically set to http://example.com/group/GROUP NAME. This is OK in English and other Latin language environment. But in my installation of a Chinese version, the URL will be mixed with both english and chinese characters, and once the url is copied and pasted somewhere, […]

calvinhsu posted on the forum topic How to move adminbar links to sidebar? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 13 years, 10 months ago

@acaps2007 What I’ve found finally: (It’s based on this article: http://easyoutsource.com/blog/how-to-code-a-custom-adminbar-in-buddypress/) So if you just set your adminbar to be hidden in css rather than completely disable it in the wp-config.php, you could use to call the notification menu. If you’ve completely disabled adminbar, then use the…[Read more]

calvinhsu posted on the forum topic A global inbox? in the group Creating & Extending: 13 years, 10 months ago

What I need is re-creating the notification menu while disabling other parts of the adminbar, that is, a notification label with a count of new notifications, and when moused over, it shows a dropdown list of those nitifications. Since it’s no easy work building a global inbox page, such a notification menu would still help […]

calvinhsu posted on the forum topic How to move adminbar links to sidebar? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 13 years, 10 months ago

@acaps2007 I think I’ve find an easy way to provide the effect you mentioned. It’s rather a css trick than a php-code way. Below is what I’ve find during this process: First, I find the function bp_adminbar_notifications_menu() in bp-core-adminbar.php, but it only works when adminbar is enable, and it simply lists out all notifications rather than […]

@Paul Gibbs
Glad to hear that.

Right now I’m thinking of grabbing the “Notification” item in bp default adminbar, which would at least be better than having four separate links to messages/friend-requests/group-membership-requests/group-invites.

Do you have an answer how to achieve this?

calvinhsu started the forum topic A global inbox? in the group Creating & Extending: 13 years, 10 months ago

I’ve disabled the adminbar on my site. And I have found the code to add links to and show number of new messages and friend requests. But just now I found that I also have to add link and number for group invites and group membership requests. So is it possible to combine all these […]

calvinhsu posted on the forum topic Bp prevents installing *big-size* plugins? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 13 years, 10 months ago

@r-a-y
I haven’t tried what you said since I find disabling bp would make it work. Maybe I’ll try later.

But even if manually uploading would work, it would be annoying uploading them every time they get upgraded.

calvinhsu started the forum topic Bp prevents installing *big-size* plugins? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 13 years, 10 months ago

This is a quite odd issue. On a Media Temple dv hosted site, when buddypress is enabled, I cannot install certain plugins(in my case, they are “quick cache” and “wp maintenance mode”, both are more than 2MB in size), the installing page just stops when saying downloading, and in the backend of the server I […]

calvinhsu posted on the forum topic Change the default activity tab in the group Creating & Extending: 13 years, 10 months ago

@paulhastings0 Hi, I used this method before, and I even moved to the end of all tabs. But after this, although it appears the preferred tab(“My friends” or “my groups”) is selected, the actual activities automatically loaded below the tabs are still all members’ activities. So it seems the class="selected" is just for defining css […]

@mercime
the default one. I disabled global forum directory in backend Buddypress->general setting.

calvinhsu started the forum topic link to global forum directory still visible even global forum directory is disabled in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 13 years, 10 months ago

Even global forum directory is disabled in admin panel, there is still a link to it on single forum post page, although it jumps to homepage. I think it should be hidden in this case.

calvinhsu started the forum topic everything in excerpt is put in the same paragraph in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 13 years, 10 months ago

I’m developing a child theme of bp-default theme, and find that all paragraphs in excerpt are all put in the same (it was not like this as I recall) just separated by tag, rather than the way in wp default twentyten theme, that is, separate each paragraph in a single , which is much […]

calvinhsu started the forum topic Is it possible to pre-fill activity input form with default text? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 13 years, 10 months ago

I’m wondering if it is possible to pre-fill the activity input textarea with certain text and when the textarea is selected the default text is automatically removed? I’m building a homepage in which the activity block only occupy a small area, so I want to move the “what’s new?” into the textarea in order to […]

calvinhsu posted on the forum topic Default Activity Streams Are Backwards IMHO in the group Requests & Feedback: 13 years, 11 months ago

Hi guys, I just searched and followed the links here. I tried moving the code for the “All activity” tab in a child theme, and managed to move the tab to the right of “@mentions” tab. The problem is although “My friends” tab is now the first tab and appears to be active by default […]
