are there any guidelines for issue posting?

Anything that you think may help the core team really. Usually a list of steps describing how to reproduce the problem is super useful. Also, as much info about your setup as you can such as plugins activated, theme, whether you use multisite, which browser you use and so on.

Whilst notifications is a BuddyPress component, it’s actually bbPress that handles this particular notification via their bbp_buddypress_add_notification() function. If you pass the following link to the bbPress guys, they should be able to take it from here.

3 reports in 3 weeks sounds as though there could be an issue here. Can you open a ticket on Trac?

You can use the same username and password that you use here in the forum to log in. Please provide as much background info as you can regarding your setup.

Inside the function, there’s a bp_get_total_group_count filter hook which can be used. Something like this as an example:

function my_group_count_filter( $count ) {
// Do something with $count here.
return $count;
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_total_group_count' ,'my_group_count_filter' );

Oh, and you’ll need preg_match().

Would it be easiest to search for any text preceded by a “@”?

Yeah that’s a good idea. The regex pattern you’ll need will be something like @[0-9a-Z_-]+. That will find within the activity item’s text all strings that begin with an @ character which is followed by one or more lowercase or uppercase characters, including numbers and the – and _ c…[Read more]

Right, I see! I’m thinking you’ll need to use a regular expression to get the mentioned user’s username from the activity item’s text. Then you can do a user lookup using that username. From there you’ll have everything you need to know about the mentioned user.

echo bp_member_user_id(); will output the user ID. How are you outputting the 35, 170 cm part?

Do you mean grab the username and avatar of @-mentioned users for a) activity items already posted or b) new activity items going forward?

Hi @goakes

Yes that’s right, you can copy and paste the code into your child theme’s functions.php file.

There’s currently also 29 themes in the WordPress Theme Dir tagged “BuddyPress”. See here. I’m not sure if any of these will be different to the themes you’ve seen already at BP Inspire, but it’s worth taking a look 🙂

echo bp_member_user_id(); will output an integer (user ID) like this 38. Is that what you want to happen?

Hi @julia_b

http://www.bpinspire.com/ might be useful to you. It showcases lots of popular BuddyPress websites and themes.

Hi @veelow

Try asking this question over at bbPress.

My first thought is how best to open a selectable list of members. You could use a modal but if the list of members is long (30 or more) then a modal + list might not be the best approach.

That information never arrived at the email.

Just a thought, check your spam folder as sometimes activation emails end up there.

I attempted another registration with different credentials and email and this time nothing happened.

This might be a problem with your theme. Try activating TwentyFifteen and complete the registration form again.…[Read more]

Here’s an example which strips all HTML from the text of activity comments:

function filter_activity_comment_text( $content ) {
$content = wp_filter_nohtml_kses( $content );
return $content;
}
add_filter( 'bp_activity_comment_content', 'filter_activity_comment_text' );

Note, this won’t strip HTML from activity items that already…

The template you’ll need to override is entry.php.

Sometimes registration emails aren’t sent

Are you sure they’re not being sent? Could it be that they’re not being received (gone into a spam or junk folder)?

If the user skips this they can login normally

They can log in but unless they’ve activated their account via the email that was sent, or you have manually activated them, they won’t be a…[Read more]

a) If I click to “View” the message (not the html link), in the majority of cases I’m taken to the error page. I’m not clear why this is the case?

Did you happen to delete those activity items? The reason I think you are getting the error page is because those activity items don’t exist.

b) Is there a way to disable html coding in these message…
