any profile fields you add to the first field group get added to the registration form.

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 5 months ago]

bp_get_user_last_activity( $user_id ), though its for last activity item added and not an indicator of site access.

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 5 months ago]

Can you go to the page if you change the permalink to something else?

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 5 months ago]

Try bp_init instead of loaded, but define’s usually need to be added before bp is loaded and then bp_displayed_user_id isn’t ready.

If you can’t get it to work then you might try a redirect http://hookr.io/functions/bp_core_redirect/

You can update a field with this function

xprofile_set_field_data( $field, $user_id, $value, $is_required = false )

$fields = field id
$user_id = current login user id
$value = inserted value
$is_required = boolean

Hook your function to

do_action( 'bp_core_activated_user', $user_id, $key, $user )

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 5 months ago]

BuddyPress users are the same as WordPress so you can create a user using https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_create_user

To set profile fields data:

xprofile_set_field_data( $field, $user_id, $value, $is_required = false )

$fields = field id

$user_id = current login user id

$value = inserted value

$is_required = boolean

BuddyPress searches username and profile fields to find a member. You would need to develop a custom solution for this. Is this requirement for site admins? If so, you can find members by id in the admin -> Users menu item.

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 5 months ago]

Any profile fields you create in the admin that are in the first section are automatically added to the registration form.

User Extended Profiles

Not too hard, add a button near avatar image and use css to place it over image. Hide the button until you hover.

BuddyPress search is not 100% accurate. Member search searches usernames and profile fields. Think of it more like a filter than search.

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 7 months ago]

Search for bp_get_profile_field_data()

This is the function to get profile data

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 7 months ago]

It will require high development knowledge as you will need to filter WP menu items. I suggest you learn that first.

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 7 months ago]

You use JavaScript and hook into Ajax

This is not tested but should get you on right path

$(document).ajaxComplete( function( event, xhr, settings ) {
  if ( settings.action === "avatar ajax action" ) {
    // reload page code
  }
});

Unfortunately, VC is a third party plugin and this forum is for support of BuddyPress

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 8 months ago]

unfortunately this forum is for support with BuddyPress itself, when there are added plugins it can make it impossible for someone to test.

Did you read through translation docs? https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/customizing/buddypress-in-your-language/

Also Google and search forums it’s been asked many times

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 8 months ago]

It’s a bit outdated but might work https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-activity-stream-bump-to-top/

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 8 months ago]

Try this plugin https://github.com/boonebgorges/bp-tinymce

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 8 months ago]

Read through this https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/

You need to decide on a forum site or using BuddyPress and using group forums. Running both can be confusing for users

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 8 months ago]

Fields don’t show if they are empty. Click edit and see if the fields are there

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 8 months ago]

Make sure to test plugins and themes by deactivating them and switching theme

You only need two functions now, there was some fixes added recently to make this easier.

function my_custom_activity_meta_stuff( $content, $user_id, $activity_id ) {
	bp_activity_update_meta( $activity_id, 'bpcat', $_POST['bpcat'] );
}
add_action( 'bp_activity_posted_update', 'my_custom_activity_meta_stuff', 10, 3 );

function add_bpcat_form_func(){
  $output ='
	<div id="bpcat">
		<select name="bpcat" id="bpcat">
		  <option value="" disabled selected>Choose a Category</option>
		  <option value="update">Update</option>
		  <option value="news">News</option>
		  <option value="video">Video</option>
		  <option value="image">Photo</option>
		  <option value="advertisement">Advertisement</option>
		</select>
	</div>
';

  echo $output;
}
add_action('bp_activity_post_form_options', 'add_bpcat_form_func');

[@modemlooper Moderator 10 years, 8 months ago]

Make the field hidden. It won’t matter as you can intercept the $_POST and override anything they add.

This is a quick example.

function bp_auto_generate_username(){

    $my_post = $_POST;
    $my_post['signup_username'] = 12345;

}
add_action( 'bp_signup_pre_validate', 'bp_auto_generate_username' );
