BuddyPress.org

I am the “culprit”; I edited the codex page as it was a little too confusing in my eyes. I also wanted to remove the step to create a bp-custom.php file, as it is unnecessary in BP 1.2.7 and up. I’ve just taken some time to update the codex page once more: https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/ And am […]

Yeah, it is a bit of a hack, but I believe it will not break anything; if anyone feels adventurous, try it out.

Yeah, this issue has already been reported on Trac:
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2681

Could be a memory problem.

Have you tried manually uploading the plugins to the server via FTP and then activating them in the admin area?

Apparently, the link no longer exists on WPMUDev; the developer of the plugin says the next release will be available on wordpress.org/extend/plugins/.

@risi @modemlooper – Just added a sticky for this over here:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/oembed-for-buddypress/forum/topic/embed-ly-plugin-support/

Like I said, if you’re using any caching or redirecting plugins please disable them and test.

Sorry about that! I thought it would work. Looks like BP is missing some template tags for this. This will work. Add the following to your theme’s functions.php : function bp_topic_poster_is_admin() { global $topic_template; return BP_Groups_Member::check_is_admin( $topic_template->post->poster_id, bp_get_the_topic_object_id() ); } function…[Read more]

Try it!

Be sure to wrap it around php tags though.

I don’t understand your issue; I navigate straight to this URL:
http://www.eziny.net/

I am able to access your posts without being redirected to the register page.

It’s a server thing with the way the *press.org sites are hosted; don’t ask me the specifics as I have no idea!

If you really need to show an avatar, then follow what modemlooper said.

Nope, you shouldn’t need to add anything to the end of a Vimeo link.

Do not use the embed code but just the URL for the video.

eg.

Yeah, the second code; I was just trying to explain where you can find useful functions for groups 😉

BuddyPress’ forums are group-specific like the forums on Facebook’s group pages.

If you’re looking for a traditional forum, then stick with phpBB.

Also, stay tuned to the new bbPress WordPress plugin:
https://trac.bbpress.org/timeline

There will probably be an alpha release for that in the next month or so.

Check out /buddypress/bp-groups/bp-groups-templatetags.php.

In particular, here are the conditional functions you’re looking for:
bp_group_is_admin(); // will return true if the user is a group admin

bp_group_is_mod(); // will return true if the user is a group mod

Use in a conditional statement and you’re good to go!

eg.

It’s better to be clear when posting!

You can use this snippet in your theme’s functions.php:
function ray_bp_get_the_topic_last_poster_name( $name ) {
global $forum_template;

return str_replace($forum_template->topic->topic_last_poster_displayname, $forum_template->topic->topic_last_poster_login, $name);
}
add_filter(…[Read more]

If your site has open registration like you say, then users shouldn’t be redirected to the register page when they’re trying to read a post.

Do you have any redirection or private BuddyPress plugins installed?

@imjscn – Works for me.

Like I said, the code only works during the forum topic loop.

The corresponding template is:
/groups/single/forum/topic.php

Look for this line:

Then, add the following and see what pops up on the screen:

Check out the BP Skeleton Component: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-skeleton-component/ It teaches you how to create a whole plugin for BuddyPress; you won’t need to use all the code in the skeleton component, but it’ll help you structure your code for BP. The functions you want to look at in particular are: bp_example_setup_globals…[Read more]

There are two hooks BuddyPress uses when editing a profile that you can hook into:
do_action( 'xprofile_profile_field_data_updated', $field_id, $_POST );
do_action( 'xprofile_updated_profile', $bp->displayed_user->id, $posted_field_ids, $errors );

These actions are in the xprofile_screen_edit_profile() function in bp-xprofile.php.
