@vapvarun Thanks, but would you trust a plugin which is not updated over 2 years of time?

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

Thanks, done: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8298#ticket

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

Hi @iamthewebb,

Thank you for your reply. Well, the reviews aren’t great and the plugin isn’t updated in 2(!) years. So I won’t touch that with all possible vulnerabilities with an outdated plugin. Also WP Mail SMTP has +x10 more users than the Sendgrid plugin.

Thanks for pointing that plugin out though.

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

Thanks @vapvarun I will have a look into this. Using the default wp_mail() settings seems to work now, but it’s not a final solution for me since I want to use an external mail provider.

Have added it to my to do’s to dive into it.

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

I am probably not the only one with this error. No one knows how to solve this?

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

Quick update: once I deactivate the WP Mail SNTP plugin which I have set up with Sendgrid the emails of BuddyPress start working again.

So it seems because because WP Mail SMTP Reconfigures wp_mail() BuddyPress mails gets broken or something.

Still have no clue why it isn’t working with WP Mail SMTP.

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

Bump, I can’t be the only one having such problems. Right?

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

Well, it turns out it has something to do with the do_action( 'bp_member_header_actions' ); action. That one breaks when the code above is active. Still don’t understand why.

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

Oh man, was breaking my head about this one for the past days. But found the solution, of course the answer was right there. I forgot to exclude admins and mods in the loop. Don’t understand why they would be excluded in the first place.

There is the complete code, including to get xProfile fields for anyone that is interested:

<?php
    $args = array(
        'group_id' => bp_get_group_id(),
        'exclude_admins_mods' => false
    );

    if ( bp_group_has_members( $args ) ) : ?>
        <ul id="member-list" class="item-list">
            <?php while ( bp_group_members() ) : bp_group_the_member(); ?>
                
                <?php $user_id = bp_get_group_member_id(); ?>
                <li>
                    <span class="avatar">
                        <a href="<?php bp_group_member_domain(); ?>">
                            <?php bp_group_member_avatar_thumb(); ?>
                        </a>
                    </span>
                    <span class="name">
                        <a href="<?php bp_group_member_domain(); ?>">
                            <h4><?php bp_group_member_name(); ?></h4>
                        </a>
                    </span>
                    <span class="platforms">
                        <?php $user_psn_handle = bp_get_profile_field_data('field=PSN handle&user_id='.$user_id); ?>
                        <?php if($user_psn_handle): ?>
                            <i class="icon saturated standalone platform psn"></i>
                        <?php endif; ?>

                        <?php $user_xbox_handle = bp_get_profile_field_data('field=XBOX handle&user_id='.$user_id); ?>
                        <?php if($user_xbox_handle): ?>
                            <i class="icon saturated standalone platform xbox"></i>
                        <?php endif; ?>
                    
                    </span>
                    <span class="actions">
                        <a class="button small" href="<?php bp_group_member_domain(); ?>">
                            <?php esc_html_e('View profile', 'mvp'); ?>
                        </a>
                    </span>

                </li>

            <?php endwhile; ?>

        </ul>

    <?php else: ?>

        <div id="message" class="info">
            <p><?php _e( 'No members were found.', 'buddypress' ); ?></p>
        </div>

    <?php endif; ?>

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

A link in this documentation gives a 404: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/loops-reference/the-group-members-loop-bp_group_has_members/ – see Accepted Parameters – group_id required link to “bp_has_groups() loop”.

This is my code at the moment:

<?php
    $args = array(
        'group_id' => bp_get_group_id()
    );

    if ( bp_group_has_members( $args ) ) : ?>

        <ul id="member-list" class="item-list">
            <?php while ( bp_group_members() ) : bp_group_the_member(); ?>

                <li>
                    <span class="avatar">
                        <a href="<?php bp_group_member_domain(); ?>">
                            <?php bp_group_member_avatar_thumb(); ?>
                        </a>
                    </span>
                    <span class="name">
                        <a href="<?php bp_group_member_domain(); ?>">
                            <h4><?php bp_group_member_name(); ?></h4>
                        </a>
                    </span>
                    <span class="actions">
                        <a class="button small" href="<?php bp_group_member_domain(); ?>">
                            <?php esc_html_e('View profile', 'mvp'); ?>
                        </a>
                    </span>

                </li>

            <?php endwhile; ?>

        </ul>

    <?php else: ?>

        <div id="message" class="info">
            <p><?php _e( 'No members were found.', 'buddypress' ); ?></p>
        </div>

    <?php endif; ?>

Any help appreciated. I’m stuck here.

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

Hi there,

Is there are also a function to show the notices somewhere else for the legacy theme?

Thanks in advance.
Justin

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

Let me add this to make my question more clear:

Now it’s like @{username} and I would change that to just a xProfile field like {Gamertag} so always show another field without the @.

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

After soong some more research I think I go with the plugin from BuddyDev to make it possible for people to change their username.

1) There are a couple of downsides: username will not be linked to profile at past activity. And SEO score will get lost. If anyone has a solution for this please let me know.

2) I want to change the way the username is shown on the site. Now it’s like: @username. I’m building a gaming community and also want a clantag before the name if that is filled in their profile. Is there some function to change this sitewide?

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 7 months ago]

Thanks @vapvarun

Is there any way to get around this for now as far as you know?

Appreciate your replies.

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 8 months ago]

Well, it seems Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function bp_is_member() is also not correct.

Perhaps the correct function is bp_is_user ?

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 8 months ago]

Oh, lol. Stupid mistake. Thanks!

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 8 months ago]

Yes, of course. It’s because you need a template in your theme which BuddyPress uses to load the content. This is the list of templates: https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/theme-compatibility-1-7/a-quick-look-at-1-7-theme-compatibility/

So I do now have buddypress.php template file in my theme which BuddyPress uses to display content.

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 8 months ago]

Ok, after 2 hours of research I’v asked this question. 12 mins later I solved it. So never mind!

[@n33d Participant 4 years, 8 months ago]

Correction: even when I disable my /theme/buddypress/ folder the page.php is loaded and BuddyPress is loaded in the_content();
