@marcella1981 I’m probably the worst person you’d want to help out on a design project 🙂 – my eye for design isn’t great. I pretty much use a front-end framework for everything – check out Bootstrap and Semantic UI. There’s also Foundation which is V popular but I haven’t used that.

@marcella1981 I think you should really have a target audience in mind instead of building something and wondering who will use it. I’d come up with a list of ‘audiences’ and then perhaps build a theme for each one.

Take the Theme Directory as an example – in there you will have themes for photographers, themes for beauty therapists, themes for…[Read more]

@marcella1981 visually, I’ve got to say version 2.0 is a huge improvement over 1.0. I think the design of 2.0 looks very stylish!

Your file should be:

/buddypress/members/index-directory.php

and not:

/buddypress/members/index.php

(which is what I think you mentioned you have).

@ubernaut or YouTube’s server is down (unlikely but possible) 🙂

@ubernaut is right – it’s called oEmbed and it’s a feature provided by WordPress core. BuddyPress supports oEmbeds in activity updates by default. If you’re not seeing a YouTube video after pasting in a YouTube video’s link, then there is possibly a problem with your theme.

Ah OK. No problem.

The fix here would be to add some CSS to your theme’s style.css document.

input.classname1 {
width: 100%;
}

input.classname2 {
width: 100%;
}

You could try adding that snippet and make sure to change classname1 and classname2 to the class used on the username and password inputs (If you site was live then I could…[Read more]

Hi @ipnotico

This is likely a problem with your theme’s CSS. Which theme are you using?

@terraling nice solution! Using that approach, I don’t think you will need any JavaScript at all now.

Oops I do apologise! I read up to “What can I hook into?” and couldn’t think of a hook then got carried away thinking of how you could solve the problem 🙂

EDIT: Perhaps you could request a new hook?

You guys should let the rtMedia plugin developers know you’re unhappy with the display. If enough people agree then I’m sure they’d look into it!

@terraling

How about tricking BP into thinking the password has been entered twice? You can do that with a little JavaScript. You’d need to make the 2nd password field into a hidden input so that the value is still submitted with the form.

Here is the general idea:

<input type="password" name="signup_password" id="signup_password"…[Read more]

@marjwyatt is it just the page title on the members directory you’re having problems with? Can I ask what page title you are getting for the following pages:

members/username/activity
members/username/

Is there a hook/filter that I can use to change these default titles?

Yes, there sure is. bp_modify_page_title is the filter hook you’ll…[Read more]

Hi @marjwyatt

I noticed your question was very detailed so wanted to make sure @webauthor had the exact same problems before attempting to help.

@hannahcaswell As far as I am aware rtMedia is going to be the closest plugin you’ll get to helping you achieve your requirements. If the problem is just how the audio is presented then perhaps try looking into how you can change the display via CSS. If you’re not comfortable with CSS then could you think about changing your theme?

@webauthor this is quite an old thread so the original problem might not be happening now. It might be worth posting the issues ‘you yourself’ are experiencing – then hopefully somebody will be able to offer a solution.

You could try posting a link to a demo of your theme in https://buddypress.org/support/forum/your-buddypress/ asking anyone to provide you with some feedback…

Hi @marcella1981

You’d release your theme through the WordPress Theme Directory (or you can make your theme available privately – through a GitHub repo for example).

There will be a theme review process if you plan to release through the Theme Directory. Take a look at this for more info:

Hi Justin

The way I would tackle post pagination on BP profile pages would be to use paginate_links
