Client wants Extended Profiles turned off, so the override was profile-wp, not profile-loop

now working thanks to @hnla

pls mark as resolved.

@hnla It is a good idea, but only works if it is institutional and tech-enabled. e.g. An area on this website dedicated to that pursuit that enables developers to bid on projects and “crowds” to “promise” money (via some sort of escrow or another, simpler system)…it is important to know both – what the developers need for the project, and what…[Read more]

@hnla As you have astutely noted, this is a plugin request, and hence I am hoping someone might release a plugin.

@hnla i’m going to start using theme compat post 1.8 as i need the template hierarchy stuff you’ve been working on. Can’t wait for that!

@hnla you beat me to it – i was just reading that exact page. Thanks for your help!

@sbrajesh thank you! Adding exit(0); nailed it!

@hnla

bp_is_current_component( ‘activate’ ) and ‘activate’ == bp_is_current_component() and bp_is_activation_page() and is_page('activate') all work by themselves – it was my function that was missing an exit statement that was the problem. Thanks to @sbrajesh it’s all sorted now.

@benjino
Then take @hnla ‘s advice. If you don’t know php then you have 3 choices,
1.) learn some php
2.) hire a developer
3.) just don’t play around with anything above your skill level.

Without trying to sound rude or condescending you have had more than enough help for your topic and nobody can spoon feed you how to get it done when you…[Read more]

@hnla actually suggested an easier option i almost overlooked. You could set up 2 menus in WP Admin and display them in your theme according to the logged-in status of the user:
<?php
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'user-loggedin-menu' ) );
} else {
wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' =>…[Read more]

@hnla I searched for the thread you mentioned which had the solution already posted. Can be found here:

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/adding-dynamic-profile-link-to-main-menu-item/

@benjino the whole menu is filtered so you can build as much of it or as little of it as desired.

Take the portion of my code that builds the link:

<li><a href="/register" title="Register">Register</a></li>

Changing this to
<li><a href="/link-before" title="Link before">Link before</a></li>
<li>
<a href="/register"…[Read more]

@hnla Yes, spot on. The first function i wrote in a rush, i tired to target a specific menu but when i tried testing the function it didn’t work as expected. Although my second function will work, you’re right it will spit out the register link to all WP menus that are in operation

@djpaul and @hnla I do apologise for missing you off the list. This will make life far easier for theme developers everywhere

@hnla Is that updated for the “final” version in 1.8? So many changes in that ticket 🙂

@hnla i’ve made a start but have to pop out for a while. You can see where i’ve got to so far

@hnla

Loving the second approach! although not as clean as the first approach, it’ll be much easier to do. jQuery show, hide and toggle could all be used to get the desired effect! i’m going to have a crack at it this weekend…

@themightymo
Your welcome! Maybe @mercime and @hnla could shed some light on this issue?

@themightymo
Just tested it out even though it is not a feature I use here but after I posted an activity update it went to a white screen with what appears to be a redirect loop that will not resolve. @mercime @hnla Do you guys have the same issue?

Thanks @hnla

i’ve been through the directory structure with a toothpick and have come up with a good list. It would be great if you could feed back to the documentation team that a full list published somewhere in the codex would be greatly appreciated :}

@hnla @danbp thanks for the feedback. i’ll raise the issue at Trac
