BuddyPress.org

Did that make sense? where I said “This would work well if (2) wasn’t happening to begin with. Then again if (2) wasn’t happening to begin with you wouldn’t have the problem.” – I should have actually said (1)!

@starapple

This webpage has a redirect loop

This is likely to result from two redirects in place. 1. wp-login.php is redirecting to the BuddyPress login page. 2. The BuddyPress login page is redirecting back to the wp-login.php page.

From this, I’m assuming you’re using the firmasite_redirect_bp_signup_page function? This would work well if…[Read more]

You can do that by adding a style to your theme’s style.css document. You’d want to add something along the lines of this:

.btn {
background-color: #888;
}

This won’t work unless the button has a .btn class so it will depend on your theme.

Isn’t it up to the theme author to decide if they want to include a sidebar?

@bphelp yeah, you’d have to create the page “login” first of course 🙂

Also you could set the static front page to the “login” page in WP Admin.

@shanebp good shout!

You can just comment out the line in register.php. So long as you’re just removing text, the registration process won’t be affected.

Ah I see what you’re trying to do.

$i = '1';
if ( $items = bp_get_profile_field_data( array( 'field' => 'Budget' ) ) ) {
foreach ( $items as $item ) { ?>
<div id="<?php echo 'size-' . $i; ?>">
<?php echo $item; ?>
</div>
<?php $i++; ?>
<?php…

A unique ID is easy enough, just use the loop to output a unique value. e.g.


$i = '1';
if ( $items = bp_get_profile_field_data( array( 'field' => 'Budget' ) ) ) {
foreach ( $items as $item ) { ?>
<!-- put what you want here -->
<?php echo 'item-' . $i; ?>
<?php echo $item; ?>
<?php $i++; ?>
<!-- put…[Read more]

Is budget a field that you’ve set up under WP Admin > Profile Fields? and is it of type ‘checkbox’? also are you displaying the values on the user’s profile page? if yes to all of these then this should work:

if ( $items = bp_get_profile_field_data( array( 'field' => 'Budget' ) ) ) {
foreach ( $items as $item ) { ?>
<!-- put what you…[Read more]

Hi @applegateian – I think the problem might be the snippet you’re using to output the data string.

try doing something like this:

if ( $items = bp_get_member_profile_data( array( 'field' => 'Budget' ) ) ) {
foreach ( $items as $item ) {
// put whatever you want here
echo $item;
// put what you want here…[Read more]

@3rdaxis just to note that’ll work on that page only. If you want to link an avatar that’s on a member’s profile page or in the members loop for example you’ll need to use a slightly different way of getting the user’s ID.

You can filter bp_search_form_type_select.

This will be the general idea:

function my_select_filter ( $selection_box ) {
// do your filtering here
return $selection_box;
}
add_filter( 'bp_search_form_type_select', 'my_select_filter' );

Once you’re done, pop it in your theme’s functions.php file.

A child theme of bp-default? Make sure you have copied the files and folders over exactly. So for example:

bp-default/members/single/messages/compose.php

gets copied to

your-child-theme/members/single/messages/compose.php

You could also try Welcome Pack by Paul Gibbs – it allows you to send a welcome email and also customise the various more emails BuddyPress sends out:

Welcome Pack


<a href="/members/<?php echo bp_core_get_username( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ); ?>/">
// put your avatar here
</a>


@shanebp could the user’s role be assigned programmatically to an xprofile field? That would then be searchable using the standard member search

This can’t be done using BuddyPress as it comes out of the box. You’d need a plugin or some custom code which allows users to save a image file to their profile data.
