It seems kind of anti intuitive that someone who signs up for my wordpress site has to then ALSO sign up for my network?

@Ipstenu Ok. I can handle it if you aren’t polite.

Here’s where I am: I’m a seriously intense WordPress ‘hobbiest’ – which means I build WordPress sites for my clients and friends but I don’t do code (but I do mess with CSS). I use the tools/plugins and push them. Right now, I am trying to get Buddypress to work as a way to handle a simple…[Read more]

@johnjamesjacoby @DJPaul @boonebgorges
Guys, I need your views on this issue I’m facing and whether it’s something I need to develop a custom function to fix (or perhaps there’s a function already in v1.3 that I could grab). Basically whether I’m barking up the wrong tree.

@Ipstenu over on wp.org has pointed me towards this ticket on trac -…[Read more]

Roger Coathup posted on the forum topic Replace Activity Stream blog excerpt with the_excerpt in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 3 months ago

@ipstenu: We came up with a solution to include the featured image (post_thumbnail) in the activity stream. The solution avoids the need to use switch_to_blog It isn’t simple, but it might help: We removed the action bp_blogs_record_post and replaced it with our own version that populates the content field with the post_thumbnail (you could also…[Read more]
Roger Coathup posted on the forum topic Replace Activity Stream blog excerpt with the_excerpt in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

Some pointers, but not a solution: @ipstenu The featured image is referenced by _thumbnail_id . It’s not stored in the $post data structure, instead it’s held in the postmeta table.

thanks all 😀

@ipstenu – Take the code I posted and then you’ll also need to apply a filter so BP doesn’t create its own excerpt.

This can be done with:

@ipstenu – I had the same problem, took me forever to figure out why it was happening. 🙂
