BuddyPress has a API that you can use: https://codex.buddypress.org/component/private-messages/

You can hook at the WooCommerce actions when sending the emails and send your private messages.

Hope that helps! 🙂

I will have to be a custom work. No problem exists so far!

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 1 week, 4 days ago]

The BP REST API does not have support for users yet. My guess is that the version you are using if imcomplete, missing support for several components.

Check the work here for more updates: https://github.com/buddypress/BP-REST

You can add as much options as you want:

function more_users( $args ) {

	if ( is_admin() && ! defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) ) {
		return $args;
	}

	$args['per_page'] = '50';

        $args['type'] = 'random';

	return (array) $args;
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_members_parse_args', 	'more_users', 10 );

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 4 months ago]

You can use the ‘bp_after_has_members_parse_args’ hook to filter for random users adding it to the bp-cuscom.php file.

function random_users( $args ) {

	if ( is_admin() && ! defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) ) {
		return $args;
	}

	$args['type'] = 'random';

	return (array) $args;
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_members_parse_args', 	'random_users', 10 );

I’m working on something very similar to the scenario you just described. Here is an idea it might work for you:

You could add/associate the contractors/user IDs with the WooCommerce cart. It would allow severals contractors to be associated with the same WooCommerce order/cart.

Here is a possible workable model.

– Add a project as a product;
– Add BuddyPress profile users IDs to the product in the cart;
– With the user IDs, you would fetch the users information to show their details;
– Go to the cart/checkout process as normally you would;
– Hook in WooCommerce to send the order but not charge it yet;
– Send the job to the contractor/user;
– Contractor accepts the job, hook in your payment gateway to perform the charge;
– Contractor performs the job as suggested/described by you;
– After job delivered by the contractor and accepted by the customer.

A friend suggested I should consider using WooCommerce Pre-Orders.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 8 months, 3 weeks ago]

I’d say the answer to this question lies in the LMS plugins out there… Each one has its own approach to integrate BuddyPress with them.

Also you will be able to get a look at how the pieces integrate together.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 1 year, 2 months ago]

I understand, but like I said, your requirements are very specific for your network. Good luck! =)

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 1 year, 2 months ago]

Those are very specific changes. I hardly think there is a plugin out of the box, able to apply these changes, but they are possible.

I find it safe enough.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 1 year, 10 months ago]

Congrats! =)

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 2 years, 6 months ago]

@julianprice +1

@jgwolfensberger I disagree, best practice would be testing on a stage/dev site first and then, upgrade your installation when no problem are found.

Consider for example custom plugins and functions you have in your theme/WP installation, there are not the same as the many other websites with BP out there in the web.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

Or was using its own form version and was with bad programming?

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

@danbp I’m sorry, I think he expects only one URL.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

Hi @ernest8888,

I’ve never used Commons In a Box, so I couldn’t say what kind of theme compatibility is necessary to work with it.

I do think you’re using two plugins that perform the same thing, as far as I know about it, CIAB does what BuddyPress does, am I wrong?

Also, check if there has to be some sort of organization in the template structure for it to work. That must likely be the problem in your case.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

Here are some suggestions and ideas:

1. and 2. Here you would configure a bit to make the roles do whatever you want when you want it.

3. It is possible to remove it and activate only the messaging component.

4. Today this is easy with the Theme Compatibility and Template Files (https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/a-quick-look-at-1-7-theme-compatibility/)

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

Sorry, I misunderstood. I’m not sure if the above example would work in a plugin directory.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

Try not to repeat all the file path. Just putting:

themes/your-theme/buddypress/members/single/member-header.php

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

Great! Glad to help! =)

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

I personally doesn’t create like that. I bring the files to my themes folder and edit them. This is better for upgrades and I won’t need to create pages.

Example: If I want to have a custom Profile page, I would do the following steps:

1 – Create a folder in my theme called, BuddyPress (wp-content/themes/my-theme/buddypress).
2 – I would copy the profile file from the bp-legacy template in the BP plugin folder and would put in this BuddyPress folder in my template.
3 – Edit the way I liked.

It depends much of what you are trying to do, but this approach solved my problems in a more secure and future-friendly way.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

I personally could not say, because you’re showing one random example. In my opinion, and experience with a project that I’m working on, the Codex has been very helpful and with good and solid information. Probably you’re doing something wrong, neither you could say that everything is wrong, just because you’re not being able to accomplish one particular task.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

@henrywright One question as this topic interests me a lot.

To make it work, I should replace the html form tags in the bp-legacy/members/single/messages/compose.php with this function or am I missing something here?

If possible, could you put an example, with code?

Thanks in advance!

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 1 month ago]

Also try to use in a test website before putting in your life one, in case something go wrong, as it just did.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 2 months ago]

I’m sure you can de-register the script and put your own autocomplete script.

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 2 months ago]

I didn’t know there was a limit in the bulk delete. Is it right to have such a limit @henrywright?

[Renato AlvesParticipant @espellcaste 3 years, 2 months ago]

I agree. I just think you will see an increase in spam registrations.
