@r-a-y I’ve been trying to add a call for the excerpt for each “Latest Post” in blogs-loop.php (“Blogs” subtab in member profile) but, as I’m a php noob, I wind up with excerpts from ALL posts. (At least I got something. 🙂 ) Would you happen to know how I can get just the excerpt for […]

Cool stuff indeed! The backend interface (and the sheer volume of options) is ossum! Here are some issues I’ve found… as requested, I’ll leave the minor ones out 🙂 1 – Similar issue as @Bowe, ie: creating or adding to an album messes with headline and font size settings, and results in the entire page […]

@greg

I was just going to post the link to Buddydev too, but ya beat me to it!

@cavamondo

Have you tried Buddypress Links?

@Hans

Nope, that didn’t work quite right. But this DOES:

Notes on highlights:
– Lines 1 to 3 have been added to include a message to non-logged-in users.
– is_user_logged_in conditional added to line 5 AND php endif added at the end (nested “if” statements… great stuff!)

Have fun! 🙂

@Hans You would need to create a forums-loop.php file in your child theme. Try this: http://pastebin.com/mpizkJXq Notes on highlights: – Lines 1 to 3 have been added to include a message to non-logged-in users. – The is_user_logged_in conditional has been moved from line 10 and added to the initial “if” statement on line 5 (actually lines […]

@Anointed

There’s this to start with. It only displays members’ avatars (via usernames), but I guess with some code fiddling, you could get it to display just about anything you like: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-featured-members-widget/home/

Or you could try this simple solution in your page templates: http://pastebin.com/KFeEAh1Z

@Hans I’ve installed s2member on my site specifically because it CAN restrict access to both paid memberships AND free accounts. You can restrict access to posts, pages, tags, categories, single pages and uri’s. You can also have lots of fun with advanced conditionals and display different content to different membership levels, including the free…[Read more]

To redirect users to their profile when logging in: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-redirect-to-profile/

@Nathan To change the base profile field group name, go to your WP Dashboard. Under BuddyPress > General settings, you’ll see the first entry allows you to change this. To set the Activity Stream as your home page, go to your WP Dashboard again. Scroll down to the bottom and, under Settings > Reading, you’ll see […]

@Paul

Looking forward to the update! Judging by that screenshot, Achievements is going to be a lot more flexible than CubePoints. Being able to automatically trigger “events” – such as a membership level upgrade with s2member?, or access to a “private download vault”? – sounds exciting!

@hnla

Thanks for the update re user blogs 🙂

@hnla

Thanks! That works just fine!
