When viewing a member’s profile page, you can use bp_displayed_user_id() to get the ID of the member. This will then let you display a list of their posts or their latest post. e.g.

$my_query = new WP_Query( 'author=' . bp_displayed_user_id() );

if ( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
while ( $my_query->have_posts() )…[Read more]

Do you mean something like Achievements by Paul Gibbs?

Achievements for WordPress

@poetrybyjade no problem. Might be worth trying again at some point though. I just tested and it works for me.

@poetrybyjade yes, following the instructions in the article, that is exactly what I would do. Did it work?

You need to start with an empty functions.php file in your child theme folder.

e.g.

<?php

?>

Hi @3rdaxis,

Which author’s posts would you like to display?

Have you tried doing what the article suggests? i.e putting this in your theme’s functions.php file:

if ( !function_exists( 'bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles' ) ) :
function bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles() {}
endif;

Just found an even better way of getting the total. This will always match your loop count. e.g be correct even when member search has been used.

global $members_template;
$total = ( (int)$members_template->total_member_count / 2 );


Can’t you just pass the ids of the roles you want to bp_has_members() using include?

You could get the user ids you need using get_users() then do an array_merge()

Take a look at:

Members Loop

Just needed a bit of maths to get this value

$total = ( bp_get_total_member_count() / $per_page )

Note, $per_page is whatever you’ve set in your custom members loop. I think the default is 20.

Then you can do:

$pages = ceil( $total )

Got it, if anyone ever needs this:


global $messages_template;
$total = $messages_template->total_thread_count;


Try adding this to your theme’s style.CSS document

.avatar {
display: none;
}

I need the post list to stay updated e.g when a member updates a post, WP Query will display the updated title in the post list. With activity, the old entry will remain in the list and a new item will be written to the list as well.

A couple of reasons but mainly to keep everything on one page. A load more button for posts is also consistent with the activity feed load more approach.

I was thinking the same about a fallback so I’ve added plain pagination to the page too – it gets hidden via the js so falls back nicely when js is disabled.

OK got it down to the built in WP function next_posts() not taking into account the current component and current action parts of the URL.

The URL getting passed to the script is this username/page/3 whereas in BuddyPress we need username/current_component/current_action/page/3

Now my next problem is how to modify the link returned by next_posts(…[Read more]
