Keep us up to date please. I’m also looking for adaption of this plugin: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/bp-12-bppicture-album-plugin

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_post_get_permalink() in […]/wp-content/plugins/bp-include-non-member-comments/bp-include-non-member-comments.php on line 65

… is the Backwards compatibility plugin required at least?

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

Thanks to Brajesh, this is solved here : https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/how-to-get-a-users-last-update

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

Works! Thank you very much for your proper assistance Brajesh!

(I’m wondering why we can’t get this out of a BP_Core_User instance?)

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

Thank you Brajesh.

bp_activity_latest_update($user_id); works but directly echos in quotes and with a “View” link added.

Your second suggestion returns “Array”. This should point to a way to simply get the string. Do you know which index would return the status? Some kind of echo $update[‘status’] ?

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

Shai, I would heavily appreciate enhancing FB Connect to take over Email addresses! By now, FB-connected Users must edit their addresses in BP’s Profile manually to receive messages.

Btw.: we need FB Connect getting adapted to work with BP 1.2!

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

@intimez: the fatal error described in your very post here only occurs in case you haven’t set a specific start page like “Activity Stream” under -> Settings -> Reading !

Setting Activity Stream as start page inhibits the fatal error. Strange?

Obviously the Sitewide activity feed shows to logged in members their own updates only, while only not logged in guests get all updates in the feed.

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

Here’s a workaround:

Please mark this thread as resolved.

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

Thank you so much John James –

since functions like bp_core_get_avatar() are lost in BP 1.2*, you definitely made my day!

*) undefined even with BuddyPress backwards compatibility plugin

Please permit one more question: how can I fetch/ display a specific user’s latest update (instead of $author->last_active, like in your example – now, in BP 1.2)!?

I’ve been looking through bp-core-classes.php, searching for something like

$author = new BP_Core_User( $user_id);

echo $author->user_update;

to work… no success.

Thanks in advance!

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

(The dilemma remains: you can’t even evaluate the provided contents for fitting your needs before having paid in advance. To obtain future updates you have to pay more. And more.

I’d like to donate for components I’m using in production environment. To keep with this example, I could image bp-gallery being worth to donate 30 USD (or more) for using it with my simple non-profit website – the dope sheet sounds fantastic.

I’m convinced that bp-gallery is an awesome plugin. But not everyone can afford paying a minimum of 120 USD just to have a gallery plugin up to date for a year.)

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

Thank you for your quick replies.

@Xevo: bp-gallery-beta sounds awesome – what kind of dilemma it’s for charge only.

I understand developers want/ need their infrastructure and efforts paid. But it’s also in opposition to the open source idea founded with BP. A “small” webmaster like me, caring exclusively for private websites not about earning any monetary benefits, has to think twice about if he can afford a “premium membership”. Furthermore, which provider should be chosen? buddydev.com? premium.wpmudev.org? etc.

Thanks for pointing to, anyway

@lautering: how did you make the fbconnect working with the new BP 1.2 Default theme?

By default, contrary to the Classic theme, the f-Connect button isn’t displayed in new Default’s login form in the sidebar?

Thanks & regards

You’ll find fixes for delete button and activity feed link issues in this thread:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/activity-feed-feed-not-working-after-upgrade-113

I suggest to close this thread and mark as resolved.

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

EDIT – a better way is to replace with:

return apply_filters( 'bp_get_sitewide_activity_feed_link', site_url( 'buddypress/' . $bp->activity->slug . '/feed' ) );

P.S.: the delete fix works for me, thanks

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

Steve,

thank you for your efforts. With your workaround to fix the sitewide activity feed link, you would still have to fix the rss feed reference in http header.

So here’s my suggestion – instead of using your workaround five posts above, modify the function bp_sitewide_activity_feed_link():

In wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-activity/bp-activity-templatetags.php, find around line 397:

return apply_filters( 'bp_get_sitewide_activity_feed_link', site_url( $bp->activity->slug . '/feed' ) );

And replace with:

return apply_filters( 'bp_get_sitewide_activity_feed_link', get_bloginfo( 'url'). '/buddypress/activity/feed' );

This also fixes the rss feed reference in http header.

[WPMU 2.9.1.1 with BP 1.1.3 //

looking forward to BP 1.2 final]

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

Looking forward to BP 1.2 / hopefully these issues will get solved!

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

I have to confirm this issue on my site.

Did you already recognize the other thread Activity Stream bug?

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

Looking forward to BP 1.2 – hopefully this will get solved …

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

Thanks Xevo, your plugin actually solves this issue.

I’m curious about this being fixed in BP 1.2 !?

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

Hi John, thank you for caring. Is this already solved in general or is there a workaround?

(With my German localization) I’ve the same issue after a ftp-upgrade (not auto-update, while ftp-upload should result in the same as a clean install): http://spaces.nordblog.net/activity/feed

Would be great if You could help, thanks in advance!

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Thank you Lisa, that rocks.

So if you want to have an author widget in a user’s blog sidebar, here’s an approach:

<?php

$userid = 2; // set user_id

$bp_status = get_usermeta( $userid, 'bp_status' ); // get_usermeta(userid,'metakey');

if( $bp_status['content'] && is_home() ){ // if there is a status set && we are on blog's home

?>

<!-- Status Updates -->

<li>

<div class="sidebarbox">

<h2>Autor</h2>

<ul>

<span class="alignleft">

<a href="<?php echo bp_core_get_userurl( $userid ) ?>"

title="Profil von <?php echo bp_core_get_user_displayname( $userid, true ) ?>">

<?php echo bp_core_get_avatar( $userid, 1 ) ?></a>

</span>

<?php echo $bp_status['content']; ?>

<span style="display: block; clear: both;"><!-- clear --></span>

</ul>

</div>

</li>

<?php } // endif ?>

Am I really the first one who thought about this?

A “cleaner” way would be highly welcome.

[@mrk-1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Thanks for your attention – the <?php wp_footer(); ?> was just called at the wrong place …

[@mrk-1 Participant 17 years, 3 months ago]

Maybe the problem is that the Friends Activity feed is referred as .xml, while feeds should be called as .xhtml instead (like the other properly working feeds)?

Thanks in advance!

[@mrk-1 Participant 17 years, 3 months ago]

3.) What about the issue “if localization is active i don’t receive email from bp, like notices, […] if i disable localization the email works […]”, mentioned here?
