well the easiest way is to just extract the snippet and replace a line of code

open up
bp-forum-extras-index.php

place this class BP_Forum_Extras_Index_Latest_Topics_Widget extends WP_Widget into the bp-custom.php file

then replace the line
if ( bp_forum_extras_blogs_component() )
with
if ( $bp->forums->slug == $bp->current_component )

well the “action” is where the username is displayed but that contains the entire “title” of the activity stream. ( thisuser posted an update: )

but you could use bp_get_activity_user_id() in the loop and reference one of the bp_core get username functions

i believe @3sixty created a plugin (or posted code – have to search for it) to record the user’s last viewed post

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

correct, under the forum index sub-plugin. (you can set the max topics)

it calls bp_has_forum_topics so if viewed from a group page or profile page – it will filter for those components as well.

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

IIRC within BP – the BB config file is also stored in the meta table ( $bp->forums->bbconfig = $bp->site_options; )

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

htaccess?

part of bp_core_do_catch_uri() when a template is not located then:

if ( $located_template = locate_template( array( ‘404.php’ ) ) ) {
status_header( 404 );
load_template( $located_template );

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

i’d say the best bet is using a “featured group” style and adding some field to the group_meta table – then pull out that featured group within the theme template

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

easy change via the theme file – you’ll need to edit whateverchildtheme/groups/single/forum/topic.php and comment out the if statement for bp_get_the_topic_is_last_page()

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

or drop me a note on here

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

this will block all new entries for certain activity stream types:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-block-activity-stream-types/

but i’m sure you could extract the code or modify it for a certain group, etc.

or you could loop over the has_activities filter and unset the items based on type

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

will dump out a full html link
bp_core_get_userlink ( $bp->displayed_user->id )

just the link
bp_core_get_user_domain( $bp->displayed_user->id )

$bp->displayed_user->id when viewing a profile – otherwise if you have the user_id that would work too

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

quick function to check first post – reference that within the topic loop

function my_forum_is_first_post() {
global $topic_template;

if ( $topic_template->post->post_position == 1 )
return true;

return false;
}

i’ve definitely hit that snag on adding new subnav items (and some other weird chain-events – if using the “loader” method to check bp first results in some hooks not catching – ie profile/settings nav items)

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

great news!

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

did you enable allow users to register on your blog?

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

always try and override the values if a filter is available instead of modifying the bp-core files (next bp update you’ll need to make the changes all over again)

bp_activity_latest_update() triggers the member-header activity – there is a filter bp_get_activity_latest_update

as for the forum # permalink – that is in the /groups/single/forum/topic.php theme file (can override with a child theme)

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

what about xmlrpc? i’m working on a receiver plugin which allows profile activity updates and a new blog post updates (ie, if someone sent an update from an external wordpress blog when a new post is published)

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

what about a rewriterule before the htaccess wordpress stuff?

make sure to disable all bp related plugins – some may not have a proper check yet if BP is disabled

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

i don’t have the thread on hand but andy posted up a solution with filters/hooks to disable the email and change the user status

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

what about wp-mail.php? i think that uses the wp.org -> settings > writing > Post via e-mail

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

sure
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-activity-stream-loop/

set the action to new_blog_post, object to groups, primary_id to the group_id
