I came across this exact same thing a few weeks back so wrote the function below:

// redirect front page for logged in visitors
function redirect_front_page_for_loggedin_users() {
global $bp;
// redirect only when user is logged in and we are viewing the front page as set in WP admin
if ( is_user_logged_in() && ( is_front_page() ) )…[Read more]

@hnla in the end this wasn’t a problem with the .pot file. It was a self-inflicted problem caused by messing with wp-config.php. Thanks again for your help.

You can do this by checking if the displayed member is friends with the logged in member and then showing the comment form conditionally.

$status = friends_check_friendship_status( bp_loggedin_user_id(), bp_displayed_user_id() );
if ( $status ) {
// show comment form
} else {
// don't show it
}

Please note I’ve not tested this but that…[Read more]

@martinbeaulne the avatar upload process uses certain scripts (jcrop etc) so you will need to check they aren’t being enqueued only on the /change-avatar/ page

Are you removing support for that provider (soundcloud) anywhere? if you take a look in class-oembed.php – soundcloud is supported and looks as though it has been since WP 2.9

sweet! thanks again for the help

bp_action_variables are stored as an array

That does make it easy. you just have to ‘catch’ them right?

so if somebody randomly entered the URL posts/page/2/3/hello and I did something like

if ( $bp->action_variables[2] == 'hello' ) {
// do something
} else {
// do nothing
}

then ‘do something’ would happen

@modemlooper got ya! I see now – perhaps the pagination needs the actions variables to be available. Hiding the subnav (but still keeping it) works.

Thanks for all your help in this thread, appreciate it! 🙂

Now i’m off to learn about why this blasted pagination query needs the action variables in order to work…

@modemlooper tried the space, it didn’t work very well for me.

looking through BP core – i noticed every single component has a subnav set – even BP Follow has subnavs set – it’s making me think subnavs (bp_current_actions) are needed as the BP Follow subnavs are highly redundant:

members/username/following/following
members/username/followers/followers

actually – it only seems to work when a bp_current_action (subnav item) is set. strange!

EDIT: Oh right, i’ll give the space a shot…

@modemlooper

bp_current_component
bp_current_action
bp_action_variables

members/user/bp_current_component/bp_current_action/bp_action_variables

So bp_current_component is the main nav item, bp_current_action is the subnav item and bp_action_variables is what comes after that.

bp_dump() shows me that when bp_current_action has a value,…[Read more]

bp_dump() V useful thanks – just taking a look through now…

I suppose my problem comes down to why paginated posts are only displayed when a subnav is specified.

e.g. If I display my list of posts on page

members/username/COMPONENT-NAME/

then i’d want my paginated posts to display like this:

members/username/COMPONENT-NAME/page/2

As it stands, i’m displaying my list of posts…[Read more]

@modemlooper ah yes I see! – I suppose if it works, why not 🙂

@modemlooper not sure I follow?

@modemlooper – Great stuff, as in doing this?

$nav = array(
'name' => __( 'Component name', 'bp-component-name' ),
'slug' => 'component-name',
'position' => 80,
'screen_function' => 'bp_component_blah'
);

This does give the page I need:

example.com/members/username/component-name

Although this leads…[Read more]

@cwjordan just to add – a logged out user can request a password reset link which they can use to enter a new password. This will be another place to enforce strong passwords.

Hi @applegateian with user display name you have the problem of spaces in the URLs. I suppose it is possible but in my view it would mean quite a bit of custom code.

If the server isn’t the issue and you are using everything as it comes out of the box then yes you should give a fresh install a shot. Keep a back up of everything for reference.
