Take a look at this example screen function from the BP Skeleton Component:

https://github.com/boonebgorges/buddypress-skeleton-component/blob/master/includes/bp-example-screens.php#L33

Instead of trying to re-use the xprofile_screen_change_avatar, perhaps try creating your own using this as a guide. Boone Gorges looks after the BP…[Read more]

Can you try making a copy of xprofile_screen_change_avatar in functions.php and renaming it to custom_xprofile_screen_change_avatar

Then try:

'screen_function' => 'custom_xprofile_screen_change_avatar',

@lflier

In your setup_custom_nav function, instead of:

'screen_function' => 'lf_screen_function',

Maybe you can do this:

'screen_function' => 'xprofile_screen_change_avatar',

And you won’t need your lf_screen_function() function.

I haven’t tested this, but don’t see why doing that isn’t possible.

@lflier that sounds like a good approach. The screen function will be already written for you and as you say, creating the new subnav and removing the unwanted one is easy enough.

Hi @josephfrio13yahoocom and @lflier

Component navigation is set-up in the component’s class. For example, the setup_nav method within the BP_Friends_Component class does this for the Friends component. See here for exactly how it’s done.

To my knowledge, there is no easy way to move subnavs around.

Hi @peipooh

You’ll need to use CSS or JavaScript to create the accordion effect. You could write that yourself or you could take the easier route and use a framework such as Bootstrap. Their collapse.js plugin is what you’d need to use.

Hi @simonvrolijk

Do you have the BP pages created under Admin > Pages?

Your community most probably won’t drain server resources (given it doesn’t grow) so perhaps look for a hosting package that offers good support and a good uptime guarantee. You won’t necessarily need the most powerful server (unless you’re allowing your users to do all kinds of photo editing or gaming etc).

You’ll need /members/username/messages/ in order for private messages to work. You could disable the rest such as /members/username/settings/ using a redirect function hooked to template_redirect

Could it be that unactivated users are showing up in your Admin panel?

Your code didn’t format very well above so here it is…

function bpfr_my_directory_setup_nav() {
echo '#main'; // link to what you want
}
add_action( 'bp_members_directory_member_types', 'bpfr_my_directory_setup_nav' );

What are you trying to do?

@pietro_sferrino as a general guide to how templates work check out the BP Template Hierarchy

The template for the registration page would normally live here:

/your-theme/buddypress/members/index-register.php

You can edit that file if one has been set up by Mingle but as I say, I’m not sure what Mingle does because it’s code isn’t available.

Check out Roles and Capabilities. If your admin and custom roles share a common capability then you can distinguish these roles from the rest of the roles that don’t have that capability.

See
current_user_can() and user_can()

You would use them like this:

if ( current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) ) {
// The current user can manage options…[Read more]

Hi @paton400

This works great, but it also allows these user roles to read through other users private messages, change avatars, settings etc

If this applies to non-admin users such as contributors or subscribers, then this is a mighty big flaw. If that is happening due to the plugin then I’d expect the plugin author will want to know about it.…[Read more]

Hi @pietro_sferrino

I notice you’re using Mingle. It’s a premium theme so I’m not sure how their templates are set-up. Have you tried asking on the theme’s support page?

@godavid33 I remember when this was being worked on (JJJ’s project – see the GitHub repo for it here) – It wasn’t in core the last I checked but am somewhat out-of-touch so it may well have made it in.

Hopefully this helps.

‘whatever’ can be anything. I was using it as an example. In your case, it will be an image, or some text or anything. The key bit to understand is whichever page element you put id='anchor' on is the page element that will appear at the top of your page, on page load.

Try finding your <body> tag in header.php then add an onload event attribute like this:

<body onload=' location.href="#anchor" '>

Then in your template:

<div id='anchor'>whatever</div>

When the page loads ‘whatever’ will be at the top of your screen.

This will need JavaScript.

This isn’t possible without adding some custom code and I’m not aware of a plugin that does this.
