@Travel-Junkie, @DavidRLabbe – thank you very much guys for your support! It’s working like a charm, but i got one tiny question.. why it’s so hard to get group information based on group id? Cause for members we got several functions with pretty easy instructions

[@gerbilo Participant 15 years, 10 months ago]

Another question for groups query experts.
—
How to extract for example group name, permalink, status, description from group ID ?
Something like bp_has_groups ( “group_id = ‘.$ID.’ “) ? Or maybe bp_get_group_name ( $ID) ?
Cause this two functions doesn’t work for me..

[@gerbilo Participant 15 years, 11 months ago]

damn.. i got the same problem and no answers..

[@gerbilo Participant 15 years, 11 months ago]

does anybody working on bp-events now? it’s working, but not so good.. for example avatar crop doesn’t work..

[@gerbilo Participant 15 years, 11 months ago]

For me redirects works fine, but not bp_core_add_message …

[@gerbilo Participant 15 years, 11 months ago]

Seems like it’s my problems somewhere.. cause i can add /profile/edit/group/1 and get access to right things )

[@gerbilo Participant 16 years ago]

I use such code for post author url for BP:

<a href='/members/<?php the_author(); ?>'><?php the_author(); ?></a>

But i can’t get post authors username used in BP, not default login name from WP..

For example i have WP the_author = admin, but BP post_author = yu. My question is how to get bp_post_author name?

I got this func, but can’t get it work for me:

function bp_post_author( $echo = true ) {

global $posts_template;



if ( $echo )

echo apply_filters( 'bp_post_author', bp_core_get_userlink( $posts_template->post->post_author ) );

else

return apply_filters( 'bp_post_author', bp_core_get_userlink( $posts_template->post->post_author ) );

}

aloooohhaaaaa!

is it so hard to upload some image using your BP MU and post here the results? oO

[@gerbilo Participant 17 years, 9 months ago]

guys, could anyone answer to me on such question – is there any problems with image upload -> thumbnail view (wrong paths for uploaded images in Media Library) on your side? cause maybe it’s BPs bug..

[@gerbilo Participant 17 years, 9 months ago]

chat plugin will be very cool )

[@gerbilo Participant 17 years, 9 months ago]

guys, i guess this problem may have something to do with .htaccess Rewrite rules. so i got only one rule for uploaded files –

RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2 [L], but it doesn’t work well.

for example:

http://www.tf2.lv/files/2009/01/fog.jpg – this is path WP gave me after i uploaded the picture (not working one).

http://www.tf2.lv/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/2009/01/fog.jpg – this is actual path to this image (working one).

and this is path that works in browser url like actual path – http://tf2.lv/wp-content/blogs.php?file=/2009/01/fog.jpg (also working one)

maybe somebody heard something about this problem?

ps. seems like uploading process can’t figured it out $username blog path (wp-content/blogs.dir/1) to add before files/2009/01/fog.jpg…

[@gerbilo Participant 17 years, 9 months ago]

apeatling, did you saw code of this site or know what server it running at?

change function in bp-blogs/bp-blogs-classes.php ->

function get_latest_posts( $blog_id = null, $limit = 5 ) {

global $wpdb, $bp;

if ( $blog_id )

$blog_sql = $wpdb->prepare( " AND p.blog_id = %d", $blog_id );

$post_ids = $wpdb->get_results( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT DISTINCT p.post_id, p.blog_id FROM " . $bp['blogs']['table_name_blog_posts'] . " p LEFT JOIN {$wpdb->base_prefix}blogs b ON p.blog_id = b.blog_id WHERE b.public = 1 AND b.deleted = 0 AND b.archived = '0' AND b.spam = 0 AND b.mature = 0 $blog_sql ORDER BY p.date_created DESC LIMIT $limit" ) );

for ( $i = 0; $i < count($post_ids); $i++ ) {

$posts[$i] = BP_Blogs_Post::fetch_post_content($post_ids[$i]);

}



return $posts;

}

to

function get_latest_posts( $blog_id = null, $limit = 5 ) {

global $wpdb, $bp;

if ( $blog_id )

$blog_sql = $wpdb->prepare( " AND p.blog_id = %d", $blog_id );

$post_ids = $wpdb->get_results( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT DISTINCT p.post_id, p.blog_id FROM " . $bp['blogs']['table_name_blog_posts'] . " p LEFT JOIN {$wpdb->base_prefix}blogs b ON p.blog_id = 1 WHERE b.public = 1 AND b.deleted = 0 AND b.archived = '0' AND b.spam = 0 AND b.mature = 0 $blog_sql ORDER BY p.date_created DESC LIMIT $limit" ) );

for ( $i = 0; $i < count($post_ids); $i++ ) {

$posts[$i] = BP_Blogs_Post::fetch_post_content($post_ids[$i]);

}



return $posts;

}

Note this part ON p.blog_id = 1 – this is blog ID you want to see on your front page & news.

have you seen your blog options (/wp-admin/wpmu-blogs.php?action=editblog&id=1 – for main blog, for example)? there are some ‘Upload url’ options to check out.

[@gerbilo Participant 17 years, 9 months ago]

[@gerbilo Participant 17 years, 9 months ago]

Trent, i’m not sure, but one query for one table with thousand users is allways better that thousands queries to thousand tables with one user in it, isn’t it?

[@gerbilo Participant 17 years, 9 months ago]

[@gerbilo Participant 17 years, 9 months ago]
