In reply to: Chat Plugins with one-to-many messaging?
Hi all,
the’re some specific chat plugins for BP ! Have you tested them ?
– BuddyPress Group Tinychat
– Buddypress Group Chat
.. and both are up to date !
https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=buddypress+chatFor a few bucks, i can buy BPChat
In reply to: Error in Bp-Blogs-loader.phpplease use the code button when you post code.
Why do you think there is an error in BuddyPress ?
The warning only tells you that foreach doesn’t work correctly on YOUR install. No need to copy BP code, we have it all here. Mentionning the error – without server path- is enought.
(removed from your topic for security)If there would be a BP error, you would find many topics here about that problem. It’s not the case so far i can see.
First thing to do is to debug.
Deactivate all plugins but BP, and activate one of WP default’s theme.
Review BP settings and save your permalinks.
After that, you reactivate plugins one by one and test… If all is OK, reactivate the actual theme.If you see a probleme again, you can get sure it’s your theme. In that case you have to contact the forest support.
In reply to: username changed, not sure whySome hints here:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/my-usernames-appended-with-2/You could also check this in DB’s _users table.
Hi lionel @prabin04
no directly the solution, but you asked for code, here it is:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/adding-favourite-posts-as-a-tab-in-buddypress/
No screenshot ? Anyway, on group activity page, some action to take could be:
$my_fav_count = bp_activity_get_meta( bp_get_activity_id(), 'favorite_count' );The important thing here is
bp_activity_get_meta()Most of favorite action are related in bp-activity-actions.php, like
$favs = bp_activity_get_user_favorites( bp_displayed_user_id() );
also some in bp-activity-functions.php:659For other favorite skills, see also
In reply to: Auto join group based on roleHi @dcsenterprise,
in brief, the snippet tells
'user_registerto add a new user automatically to a group after the register process.If this is the scenario you want to use, you have to ensure that the Vendor role is in a xprofile field or at least, that this role is somewhere on the user profile, added by the WC plugin.
Assuming that it’s the case, you can use this:
function automatic_group_membership( $user_id ) { if( !$user_id ) return false; $join_group = xprofile_get_field_data('WCRole', $user_id); // field name (case sensitive) containing the role // conditionnal if ($join_group == 'vendor') // role name $group_id = '8'; // the id of the Vendor group to auto-join // action groups_accept_invite( $user_id, $group_id ); } add_action( 'bp_core_activated_user', 'automatic_group_membership' );How it works ?
– a field or select field on register page, with evtl. options
field name = WCRole
option0 = vendor
option1 = manager
option3 = director
etc…If several options for different groups, you simply add it as conditionnal to the function:
if... $group_id =Hope to be clear !
In reply to: Moderate Group Post in buddyPressThe nearest would be BP Moderation, but from back-end mostly.
Group updates are not topics or blog post, but activities. And these can’t be moderated like topics.
If you want group members discussion, use a group forum and in that case, deactivate update commenting. This will force members to discuss on forum and not on group activity wall.
In reply to: WP does emoji, BP does not?was miffed too, and decided finally to not use emoji’s. IMO unnecessary built-in noise, coming from extarnal server and added to every page without warning the site admin ! I disabled them with this plugin. On another hand, 23% of websites use now emoticons and probably 90% ignore that… Marketing !!!
If you still want some pics (if childish public is the target), see WP MonaLisa, which is even tailored for BuddyPress.
Have a nice day ! 😉 (emoticon ?)
hi @maelga,
You can’t actually automatically associate a user to a category.
try Restrict Categories, which let you assign categories to each user via backend.To associate an xprofile value (or member_type), try this:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-assign-a-wp-user-role-based-on-a-registration/#post-232887In reply to: @ mentions in groups problemIn reply to: Cannot Using Other Registration form PluginWhen you use WordPress alone, you can use many plugins for registering.
If you use BuddyPress, you also use his fonctionnalities.
One of them, is Members, which comes also with extra components, like extended profile.When you use extended profile, it is like using a register plugin for WP, with his own extra fields you can create/add to the original WP registering process. After that, each user can handle/view these fields on his profile.
Now you have to choose:
– WP alone, with his poor profile fields
– WP + BP, with rich profile fields
– WP + BP, without xprofile component (and users go back to the original profile fields aera).
– or ask on ninja plugin support for improvement guidance to apply with BuddyPress.It seems like overkill to create a whole child theme to make a few small changes to things like colors and fonts
It seems because you are beginner. But it is the reicipe of this cooking.
Making a child theme is shorter, faster and much more handy as a plugin.What is a an overkill ?
Taking a hammer to kill a fly….What is a child-theme ?
– create a folder in theme directory (5 seconds)
– adding an empty files to this folder: style.css (5 seconds)Once done, you open style.css with a text editor and you add a header as explained here (copy/pasting: 5 seconds) and modifying that text (15 seconds).
Once done, you activate the child as your site theme. And the “big” overkill is now a simple water drop whipe.
Now you can add, remove, modify any CSS rule from within your child theme. Without thinking about plugin updates or struggling with issues reliable to that plugin.
Doing this depends of your CSS knowledge and your handling of that style.css file
Hopefully, you will understand that in this case, installing a plugin or doing it yourself, has no difference in matter of time, but a big one in matter of usability (direct vs. indirect handling) and last but not least, in both case, it’s you who have to enter CSS rules.
If you know how, it’s ok. If you don’t, it’s only your fault. 😉
Responsiveness depends more of the theme you use….
There is also a plugin you could try:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddymobile/In reply to: PDF Functionalityhi @mnctigah,
have you found this ?
http://zurb.com/forrst/posts/FPDF_integration_with_Wordpress_for_PDF_printing-Gr4Hi @rekwan,
Thank you for sharing !
But to be sure with that hack, i would recommend you do the same on NextGen support, and eventually ask the authors to take in account a better option, in case of BuddyPress.They’re also much cleaner and safe solutions, as explained here.
Search for
#buddypress form#whats-new-form textareain buddypress.css (bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/css/buddypress.css)To operate such a modification, you need to create first a child theme.
See documentation.
Also, use a developper tool like Firebug to easely access such layout information.
In reply to: Unable to update user avatar as userHi,
not clear what is your issue.
First screenshot is related to Core bp-xprofile folder. No interest for this case, we have already BP installed.
Please read Getting Started guide and ensure anything is correctly setup first.
Use one of WP built-in theme while installing/testing BP.As of 2.2.3, BP use a new feature for users profile phot, so you can’t find much related informations about this feature on Google or elsewhere…
Also, note that users can modify their photo on front-end from their profile page, whithout accessing WP’s dashboard.
In reply to: Buddy Press Profile with UserProHi,
As mentionned on official plugin page, this plugin is a Beautiful WordPress User Profile and Instant Community Plugin.
In other word, an alternative to BP for WP sites users. You use the one or the other, but not both !
If you have issues with that plugin, you have to contact the author.
Note also that this plugin is not in WP’s plugin repo.
In reply to: Language change not workingHi @thesmartone,
I even changed wp_config.php, variable WPLANG
This is no more necessary since WP 4.0If your WP is in portugese, BP should be in same language automatically (except if you deactivated this feature)
BP translation can be found on GlotPress. pt_BR is translated to 96% (see here)
The po/mo files goes to wp-content/languages/plugins/buddypress-pt_BR.moYour comment is awaiting moderation, is a default WP string. In many cases, it can also be in theme. To ensure this, activate 2013 or 2015 and test all translations for WP and BP.
Deactivate all other plugins while doing this.And before claiming about buggypress, check for PBCK. Or better, read the doc before installing something. 😉
In reply to: Display user Specific profile ?In reply to: @mention autosuggest in visual editorall i could say is that is an old request, even if confidential.
See this ticket opened 4 years ago
and this bbpress ticket kicked to 2.7 as idea. And why not 6.0 ? 😉Supposing that if more people would ask, it will be resolved faster.
Aside, the gist given by imath need to be completed to work with BP 2.3.2.1 on text Tab (only) by adding
bp_is_grouptoif ( function_exists( 'bbpress' ) && is_bbpress() || bp_is_group() )And to enable visual editor, no need of a plugin. See here.
In reply to: Nickname on register page is hiddenBase field name can be modified (from Name to Whatever), you’re right there are no visibility settings for this (required) group.
If you made some custom work, (in bp-custom or theme’s functions.php) it’s important to revert back to original code first.
You use Profildetails as group title. Is this the modified Base name ?
On Boss live demo, Name is appearing.Have you tested with another theme like 2015 ?
In reply to: How to call groups by a different nameYes, if you need that club appears everywhere where group is used by default !
No, if you want to modify only ONE string
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/help-changing-contact-in-profile/#post-233027In reply to: Nickname on register page is hiddenHi rené
when xprofile component is activated, the only field who should appear on register page is Name (in Base group field). There is no setting for this because it is mandatory !
Check visibility settings of Name first, and deactivate contact-form7 and see if field comes back.
In reply to: Need to remove URLs from activity streamRead here for a posible solution:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/disable-html-in-activity-updates/#post-130454In reply to: @mention autosuggest in visual editorThe text tab used for group forum is striped by bbpress filters and BP filters. And the visual editor is set to off by default since bbp 2.3
If you need visual tab with some tinyMCE buttons, read here, maybe you can arrange this to your need ?
