@bphelp thanks, I was going to do that but wanted to make sure it was a typo before updating. Didn’t want to dive in and change something that could have been right already 🙂

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years ago]

I thought that is what could have happened 🙂

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

@shanebp lol. There must be a plugin out there somewhere 🙂

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

Uh?

So after they register the page would say something like ‘welcome, here is your challenge ID’

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

@aducale OK. In that case <?php echo bp_loggedin_user_id(); ?> would work so long as the user is logged in when viewing the page.

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

@shanebp I think the OP just needs a unique numerical?

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

Each new member automatically gets assigned a numerical ID which you can use for this purpose.

<?php echo bp_loggedin_user_id(); ?> will display it on screen for the user if they are logged in.

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

found it bp_get_profile_field_data

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

Thanks @mercime – wish you told me about that plugin yesterday. Spent about 5 hours getting my code to work – the problem was all down to the “headers already sent”. You have to redirect early on (around the wp_loaded action) – before the headers are sent or you’ll hit problems like I did.

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

I’ve been using the rtMedia plugin by rtCamp. You’d be able to do everything you mentioned using that.

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

Just to add (if anyone is interested), to have the page reload i’m using this as the last line in my function wp_safe_redirect( wp_get_referer() ); exit;

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

Got it! I had to turn my form processing code into a function and hook it to the wp_loaded action. This avoided getting the dreaded “headers already sent” error.

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

OK my code so far which partially works. I just need the page to reload or refresh to reflect that the comment has been deleted from the database. Any ideas?

if ( isset( $_POST['comment_delete_nonce'] ) ) {
    if( wp_verify_nonce( $_POST['comment_remove_nonce'], 'comment-remove-nonce' ) ) {
    set_query_var( 'commentid1', $_POST['commentid'] );     
    wp_delete_comment( get_query_var( 'commentid1'), true ); 
				
    }
} 

HTML form:

<form method="POST" action="" class="delete-comment-form">
<input type="hidden" name="comment_remove_nonce" value="<?php echo wp_create_nonce('comment-remove-nonce'); ?>" /> 

<input type="hidden" name="commentid" value="<?php comment_ID() ?>" />

<input type="submit" value="Delete" title="Delete" id="submit-btn" class="btn" />
</form>

Thanks!

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

@mercime

Just out of interest, if I use the capabilities page to mark a user as a spammer, what does that actually do? Delete the user from the site? Banish them into a black hole? etc

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

That’s what I thought it was for. Thanks for verifying @mercime – I was half thinking such capability settings would be performed via the backend dashboard – but of course this is BuddyPress – for front end stuff! 🙂

Hi @mossyoak

I’ve run a few tests and made some slight changes to that code. Try this

function bp_my_restrict() {
   $user_id = bp_loggedin_user_id(); 
   $user = new WP_User( $user_id );
	
      

         if ( ( $user->roles[0] != 'administrator' ) ) {
		 
		 if ( bp_is_current_component('members') || bp_is_current_component('activity')  ) {
            wp_redirect( home_url() );
	    exit();
	 }
      }
}
add_action('wp','bp_my_restrict');

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

These components already have their own pages.

As examples, try visiting:

yourwebsite.com/activity
yourwebsite.com/members

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

Just read through your original question. The code snippet you’d want to add to your theme’s functions.php is something like this:

function bp_my_restrict() {
   global $bp;
   $user_id = bp_loggedin_user_id(); 
   $user = new WP_User( $user_id );
	
      if ( bp_is_current_component('members') || bp_is_current_component('activity') ) {

         if ( ( $user->roles[0] != 'administrator' ) ) {
            wp_redirect( $bp->loggedin_user->domain );
	    exit();
	 }
      }
}
add_action('wp','bp_my_restrict');

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

Try this

<?php

   $user_id = bp_loggedin_user_id(); 
   $user = new WP_User( $user_id );
   
   if ( $user->roles[0] != 'administrator' ) {
     // your code
   }

?>

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

You could use the WordPress conditional is_page() to check if the user is on the activity or members page:

if ( is_page('members') || is_page('activity') ) {

} else {

}

Note: I’m assuming you haven’t changed the default slugs

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

It is easily done. You’d need to create a new page template:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Page_Templates

You can then use a modified members loop inside the page template you create:

Members Loop

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

<?php 
   $user_id = bp_get_member_user_id(); 
   $user = new WP_User( $user_id );
   
   if ( $user->roles[0] != 'editor' )
   break;
?>

That’ll display only editors

[@henrywright-1 Member 13 years, 1 month ago]

<?php 
   $user_id = bp_get_member_user_id(); 
   $user = new WP_User( $user_id );
   
   if ( $user->roles[0] == 'editor' )
   break;
?>

If you add that code directly below while ( bp_members() ) : bp_the_member(); you’ll get a list of members who are not editors.
