Try this out in /wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:

function my_bp_is_friend() {

global $bp;



if (friends_check_friendship($bp->loggedin_user->id,$bp->displayed_user->id) )

return true;



return false;

}

Then copy /bp-default/members/single/member-header.php to your child theme.

Next, edit:

<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() && !bp_is_my_profile() && function_exists( 'bp_send_private_message_link' ) ) : ?>

to:

<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() && !bp_is_my_profile() && my_bp_is_friend() && function_exists( 'bp_send_private_message_link' ) ) : ?>

There was a guy on testbp.org who said that they were working on a followers/following feature.

Not sure what the status on that is.

If you’re a site admininstrator, there should also be a menu called “Admin Options” when you’re on any profile.

In this menu, there are links to edit a user’s profile and avatar, marking the account as spam and deleting the account.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

That’s what we wanted though right?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

Your theme’s stylesheet.

Usually this is located in /wp-content/themes/YOURTHEME/style.css.

@dwenaus:

Go to example.com/blogs when you’re logged in.

You should see the “Create a Blog” button next to the h3.

This is only if you have blog registration open on WPMU of course!

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

If you just want to output a link with the logged in user’s name, use:

<?php bp_loggedinuser_link() ?>

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

The word “component” shouldn’t be tacked on…

I just changed my permalinks to /%postname%/ and now WP posts do not return anything for $bp->current_component.

Needs some investigating… but hopefully that helps somebody.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

Hmm okay… i’m just testing this locally with a child theme of the default BP theme. I also haven’t upgraded to BP 1.2.1 on this test box.

Are you echoing $bp->current_component to get these results – “a-post-with-everything-in-itcomponent” and “groupcomponent”?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

I only tested the current_component on one WP page… okay just tested with one post.

It returns a number if you’re on a WP post, so do a check for is_numeric.

global $bp;

if (is_front_page() || (isset($bp->current_component) && !is_numeric($bp->current_component))  ) {

YOUR BP CSS/JS here

}

This is untested… but give it a shot.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

Look at the current_component.

<?php global $bp;

if (isset($bp->current_component)) {

YOUR BP CSS/JS here

}

?>

The current_component should only return something if it is a BP page.

[EDIT]

Just checked the activity stream home page… it doesn’t return anything for that.

You’ll need to add a conditional for that as well.

Set this in wp-config.php:

define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '80M');

@putnam01 – are you using the default theme?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

What happens when you use the default theme in BP 1.2 after you upgrade?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

You don’t need to migrate; all you need to do is upgrade to BP 1.2.1!

Read this guide:

https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/upgrading-from-10x/

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

Check out /plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-templatetags.php

Specifically:

bp_get_member_permalink()

[EDIT]

You’re looking for user_login for the “membername” part.

Look at:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_userdata

You probably need to enable registration on your WordPress site.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

White screen usually means errors!

Do you see any errors in the server log?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

@dwdutch

Use a web developer toolbar.

If you’re using Firefox, get Firebug.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

Take a look at the BP Template Pack plugin.

This plugin will try to make your WP theme compatible with BP.

You can also build a child theme from the default BuddyPress theme.

Read how to do it here:

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

Ha! Didn’t know you could add a TOS as a CC license!

Cool of WordPress.com to offer one! Will take a look at this later.

@motionsw – yes you can use it as a guide for your own.

Here’s the part that says you can:

…you’re more than welcome to steal [this TOS] and repurpose it for your own use, just make sure to replace references to us with ones to you, and if you want we’d appreciate a link to WordPress.com somewhere on your site. We spent a lot of money and time on the below, and other people shouldn’t need to do the same.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

You shouldn’t need the xprofile field loop.

Use something like this to grab the value directly:

$background_url = xprofile_get_field_data( 'ENTER YOUR XPROFILE FIELD VALUE', bp_get_the_site_member_user_id() );

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

You can use the regular <img> HTML code to show images.

<img src="YOUR IMAGE URL" />

There are also some third-party plugins to attach images:

*BP-Gallery beta (paid plugin) – http://buddydev.com

– adds a gallery component to BP; you can attach images to groups (and profiles) this way as well

* Forum Attachments for BuddyPress -https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/forum-attachments-for-buddypress/

– allows you to attach images to forum posts only in BP

– needs some testing in BP 1.2 though; i’ve only tested this a bit in BP 1.2, needs a little work

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

Forgot to mention if you’re going with the xprofile field route, you should check the mime-type for the URL.

This would provide some additional security.

DJPaul’s idea is good as well!

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 8 months ago]

So just to be clear, you want an email to be sent to someone when they receive a notification in the BuddyBar?

This is the default behaviour already!
