    Thanks for that!

    I just deleted the bp-mobile plugin due to technical problems and I’m back with just a single menu now..? (primary) seems like bp-mobile creates a secondary theme location. I guess I could just use the plugin to create the secondary location / menu and choose my custom logged-out menu from the drop down right?

    `<?php

    remove_action( ‘bp_adminbar_menus’, ‘bp_adminbar_thisblog_menu’, 6 );

    ?>`

    didn’t work for me for some reason..? I thought it might be clashing with the dashboard commander plugin so tried de-activating that plugin to no avail :(

    tried as suggested in a bp-custom.php in my bp-default child theme

    many thanks @aces !!
    respect man :)

    I haven’t tried it yet as I wanted to see if there was an alternative way of backing up just the file/s I am working on, in the past, I’ve encountered site breaks during custom, and have developed a bad habit of doing full cpanel backups following these breaks. This has led to me losing several new member registrations on my site.

    Is there an alternative method I can adopt – i.e. doing a copy of file first and saving it to a backup folder for instance, so that if something goes wrong I can just replace the file instead of restoring the whole public_html directory?

    excuse my lack of back-ticks, it’s been a while..I’m a bit rusty lol

    so to clarify: in my header.php (child theme) replace..

    wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘bp_dtheme_main_nav’ ) );

    with:

    <?php
    if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
    wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ” ) );
    } else {
    wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘secondary-menu’, ‘fallback_cb’ => false,
    }
    ?>

    I’ve just checked my header.php and it appears to be worded slightly differently actually..? for example:

    false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘bp_dtheme_main_nav’ ) ); ?>

    the mobile menu is just for the mobile version of the site via the buddypress mobile plugin
    I don’t want the mobile menu being ‘hidden’ from logged-out mobile users really, mainly desktop users.

    I’ve put some mods in the activity-loop etc for keeping activity updates, profiles and members, groups, and forum directories ‘garden-walled’ as such so may have that angle covered?

    @pinhit

    Member

    @aces just had a thought! instead of calling up the ‘secondary-menu’ would it be possible to void out / null the request to fallback on no menu at all..?

    i.e. – => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘no-menu’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ” ) );

    or – => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘//’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ” ) );

    sounds like a plugin conflict?

    have you tried de-activating your plugins one by one to see if one of them is causing the problem?

    @pinhit

    single menu..?

    I really think I gotta create the third theme location first, because the fall-back call will end up showing logged-out visitors my mobile menu which is a duplicate of the primary location so in theory my menu tabs will still be on display

    @pinhit

    Member

    just realized I’ll have to make up a third theme location to pull this one off :( when does the editing ever end lol

    @pinhit

    Member

    good point !
    can’t afford any more site breaks on a flourishing community

    I take it my initial plan A is not worth pursuing then?

    It does address both menus specifically speaking..

    @pinhit

    Member

    customized bp-columns? sounds interesting !

    does the fact that I have the secondary navigation as the mobile version of the site make any difference? just got this gut feeling that this may just fail unless I call the secondary the logged-out-menu as my theme at present only supports 2 menus.

    @pinhit

    Member

    ok gonna give it a try (fingers crossed)

    I’ll pop it in my child themes header.php (bp default 1.5.1)

    any particular nesting point..?

    @pinhit

    Member

    hi @aces !

    thanks for the alternative option

    does your post imply that the example I’m trying to use will NOT work then.?

    by the way I have 3 menus in place:

    primary navigation – logged-in-menu

    mobile menu – mobile (buddypress mobile)

    logged-out-menu

    @pinhit

    Member

    okay so I’ve done some digging and found – nav-menu.php
    copied it to my child themes folder and created two seperate menus in my admin dashboard.

    I found this code for the menu config: here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu


    `<?php
    if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
    wp_nav_menu( array( ‘theme_location’ => ‘logged-in-menu’ ) );
    } else {
    wp_nav_menu( array( ‘theme_location’ => ‘logged-out-menu’ ) );
    }
    ?>`



    Am I getting warm..?

    If so, just two questions remain..

    a) where in: nav-menu.php do I add the above code..?

    b) Does the above code need to be wrapped at all..?

    Kind regards in advance :)

    to reiterate what @VirtualityStudio said, ” people are so used to the way fb works, it would be nice to do that for them “

    here here !!!

    Don’t get me wrong, BP/WP is a great platform, and we don’t really need millions of fb clones, but the functionality of fb’s activity feeds must surely be an ‘industry standard’ that most sites strive for nowadays.

    Buddypress in my opinion was created not only to provide us with the tools to create our own social networks, but also to strive to be more than just a ‘blog orientated’ social engine.

    Unfortunately the structure for having the ‘site-wide’ feed pulling in profile feed posts may prove to be counter productive in the long run unless more emphasis is placed on the way these items are controlled. Otherwise everyones personal conversations are the but of all gossip for all and sundry to see, a bit like washing your laundry in public lol

    Privacy control too in my humble opinion is ‘up there’ in the priorities list of BP enhancement, I admire the work that contributors have put into some of the plugins in the past but they cannot be relied on to keep up BP updates and really need to become a BP standard protocol no? anyway thats another subject ;)

    @pinhit

    Member

    yeh crashed my site too :(

    BP PLEASE CREATE A PLUGIN FOR THIS FUNCTION, IT’S THE HOLY GRAIL OF ALL ACTIVITY MODS!!!

    @pinhit

    Member

    has there been any progress with this? im trying to filter out ‘ALL’ group activity from the site-wide feed so that groups can finally post vids and pics without cluttering the site-wide feed which i need to make specialized for specific posts only.

    headz up would be wicked ;)

    @pinhit

    Member

    i think it’s – wp-content/plugins/buddypress/themes/default/activity/post-form.php

    theres two lines with what’s new, i changed the the second one down and it worked for me.

    @pinhit

    Member

    bumping this as it took me all of 3 hours just to find a like-minded individual with the same query :)

    @pinhit

    Member

    i need the same direction! need to filter out group activity stream updates / posts from the site wide activity stream

    @pinhit

    Member

    I need to keep my Group updates/comment activity seperate from the main ‘activity’ stream, is it possible to achieve this with this plugin..?

    @pinhit

    Member

    I started a style.css from scratch, but I was not sure what to put in the Theme URI so just copied the buddypress default and added my child themes name at the end.

    I was not sure what to put in the Author URI so again just copied the buddypress default Author URI

    hope this helps
