David Cavins replied to the topic Link to BuddyPress on Author page in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 5 years, 1 month ago
That depends on what theme you’re using. If you find out what template or function is producing the author page, you can add a link the user’s profile page using the function
bp_core_get_user_domain( $user_id )
. You’ll have to pass in the correct user ID, which should be used in the author page, too.Your addition might look like

David Cavins replied to the topic How to filter private messages for duplicates/spam in the forum Creating & Extending 5 years, 1 month ago
That’s an interesting idea. What about using the Akismet anti-spam service to check the content of the message?
I’ve also had bots send spam messages via private messaging, and it’s a pain once it gets started.

It may be possible, but it would have to be accomplished using a custom plugin (and would be complicated).

David Cavins replied to the topic Add custom taxonomy to member loop in the forum Creating & Extending 5 years, 1 month ago
Hello, you can add information to output to this hook:
add_filter( 'bp_nouveau_get_member_meta', function( $meta, $member, $is_loop ){
// is_loop is true in the members directory
if ( $is_loop ) {
// Taxonomy fetching code goes here...$member->ID is the member ID.// Then assemble the output.
$meta['taxonomy_item'] = "taxonomy item " .…[Read more] -
David Cavins replied to the topic Admin notification for all activity in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 5 years, 1 month ago
The content of the activity item would be
$activity_array['content']
. You can see the action that Venutius was using here: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/5.0.0/src/bp-activity/bp-activity-functions.php#L1931So you’d just add something like
$message .= "$activity_array['content']";

Hi @rezocom–
That’s a pretty complicated request. I’ve used a plugin that adds a “spam” action link to activity posts, but doesn’t have an approval workflow:

David Cavins replied to the topic Hide username in messages in the forum Installing BuddyPress 5 years, 1 month ago
That’s funny, someone else is trying to do something similar: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/the-username-i-wanted-to-hide-is-seen-in-the-messaging/
As I note in that other thread, it’s going to be hard to hide the username since it’s fundamental to BP messaging and mentions. Sorry, I can’t think of any straighforward way to change that behavior.

David Cavins replied to the topic Error Message after purchase in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 5 years, 1 month ago
Your problem appears to be that a plugin called Learndash is trying to use a function
groups_is_user_member()
before that function is defined, or maybe you are not using the BuddyPress Groups component, then it will not be defined. You’ll beed to explain the issue to the Learndash plugin authors so they can check for the function to exist before…[Read more] -
David Cavins replied to the topic The username I wanted to hide is seen in the messaging in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 5 years, 1 month ago
Hi @visitatore–
The username is used extensively through BuddyPress, so I don’t know how it can be kept a secret. (For instance, it’s used for the user’s profile page url at
/members/{username}
.)I don’t think you can hide the username entirely, since the BP messaging and mention system is built on the username, but you could probably change out…[Read more]

David Cavins replied to the topic Rename Group Nav Not Working in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 5 years, 1 month ago
On what hook are you firing that function? Are you using the Legacy or Nouveau template pack? (Have you changed from the Legacy to Nouveau template pack recently?)
It could be a number of things, but my first thought is that there’s no reason to be changing the groups nav when you’re in the middle of the create routine, so maybe there’s a more…[Read more]

That’s pretty old code you’ve found. We have a new API for that:
The example “Changing the name of the Unread subnav item of the user’s Notifications nav menu” is pretty close to what you’re looking for. If you want to add the displayed user’s display name, this is close:

Can you say what the update was? Was it a BuddyPress update or a WordPress update (or some other plugin), or do you know?
Thanks!

David Cavins replied to the topic How can I remove margin and padding from buddypress activity stream list in the forum Creating & Extending 5 years, 2 months ago
That really depends on your theme. You can use your browser’s inspector to see what CSS rules are causing the layout, then override them by adding custom rules to your site via the customizer or by using a child theme.

David Cavins replied to the topic Activation email blocked by Mailjet in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 5 years, 2 months ago
Various email services filter for spam in different ways, and it can be a real trick to get the activation mail to be delivered. I’ve had good luck using an API mailer like SendGrid or similar, where you can set up all the extra email supporting stuff like DKIM and SPF. Several of the popular API mailers have WP plugins, so that’s one way you can…[Read more]

David Cavins replied to the topic Loop redirection (infinite) in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 5 years, 2 months ago
I suspect the problem is with your modal-based login. Try TwentyNineteen temporarily to see if the issue persists.
It sounds like you may have to disable the BP no access redirect with your theme.

David Cavins replied to the topic BuddyPress – Profile Field – Open Link in New Window in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 5 years, 2 months ago
Well, you’ll have to be sure that the “Profile Field URL” field has the id of 6 on your installation. On your site, visit the Profile Fields admin at Wp Admin > Users > Profile Fields (
/wp-admin/users.php?page=bp-profile-setup
) and hover over the “Edit” button for the field you want to affect. The link will look something like/wp-admin/users.php?p…

David Cavins replied to the topic Activity stream not loading initially in the forum Requests & Feedback 5 years, 2 months ago
HI @discovered96–
That’s interesting. With the Legacy template, the activity stream is built and served as part of the page, so it sounds like a theme display issue. Can you try your site with a basic theme like TwentyNineteen to see if the issue persists?
