In reply to: Excerpts, excerpts plugin?
If you can wait a bit, activity stream excerpts are coming in BP 1.3. You can test this functionality on testbp.org.
In reply to: No signup button.Hi aaberg,
Try reading this:
https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/faqs/specific-faqs/#registerIn reply to: Fatal Error During ActivatePay no attention to Stacy. The person gives potentially harmful advice.
What you should try doing is re-installing BuddyPress. Re-upload a fresh copy and try again.
In reply to: User id @stacy may be a spammerI’ve noticed; I’m going to ping the admins to let them know.
Username is `Stacy.` (period is in the username)
This issue has been brought up in the past.
You can disable the ability to use the activity stream to reply to forum posts by doing the following:
– Login to your WordPress install.
– Navigate to “BuddyPress > General Settings”.
– Under “Disable activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts?”, select “Yes” and save.There is currently no other solution to sync activity replies to forum topics yet.
In reply to: How do remove the ”forums” tab?@gcortex – Uninstalling the forums component and removing the forums tab from the header are two different things.
If you want to uninstall the forums, login to your WordPress install and navigate to “BuddyPress > Component Setup”. Under “bbPress Forums”, select “Disabled” and then save the settings. Forums should no longer be enabled.
If you want to remove the forums tab from your header, since you’re using the Fishbook theme, you should edit the header of the Fishbook theme.
Are you able to send a message with the subject line of a blank space?
If so, you could try removing the subject field in the message template and adding a hidden field for the subject with the value of ` `.
In reply to: Site Admin v Network AdminYou’re correct. If you turned on WordPress’ network functionality, then BP will reside in the new Network Admin section.
BP plugins need to be updated in order to account for the Network Admin section in WP 3.1.
In reply to: Conditional Profile FieldsIn reply to: if is group home () ?Almost!
`bp_is_group_home()` is what you’re looking for.
These type of template tags can be found in /bp-core/bp-core-templatetags.php.This issue hasn’t been addressed yet. See:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3099It’s probably best to keep backups in the meantime.
In reply to: Notification on Profile UpdateThere’s a `do_action` hook you can use:
`xprofile_updated_profile` (located in /buddypress/bp-xprofile.php.)You could potentially use the wp_mail() function to send an email to the admin with this hook.
Don’t know what a `do_action` is and how to make use of it?
If you’re familiar with a tiny bit of PHP, here’s some articles that will help:
http://www.nathanrice.net/blog/an-introduction-to-wordpress-action-hooks/
https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API#ActionsHere’s something quick you can try:
`function my_update_profile_send( $id ) {
$text = bp_core_get_user_domain( $id );
wp_mail( ‘YOUR ADMIN EMAIL ADDRESS’, ‘Profile Updated’, $text );
}
add_action( ‘xprofile_updated_profile’, ‘my_update_profile_send’ );`Put the code snippet in your theme’s functions.php.
In reply to: Avatars Original Max not bein saved?BP_AVATAR_ORIGINAL_MAX_WIDTH is used during the initial upload. However, during the cropping phrase, this original image is deleted.
It would be possible to do what you’re asking, but it would entail hooking into the avatar cropping process (so the original image isn’t removed) and filtering bp_core_fetch_avatar() to grab this original image when you want to call it.
In reply to: Removing Activity Reply ScrollI’ll list the dirty hack method.
You have to modify /bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/global.js.
Look for the following line and delete it:
`jq.scrollTo( form, 500, { offset:-100, easing:’easeout’ } );`When you upgrade BP, you’ll have to remember to reapply this change though.
In reply to: Users can’t change passwordsFixed in trunk:
https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset/3578In reply to: Redirect homepage to registration pageTry the following:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/how-to-make-a-private-community/?topic_page=2&num=15#post-44616Add the code to your theme’s functions.php.
In reply to: Need help with PM function in forumsYou’d probably want to echo the result.
Use the following in topic.php:
`bp_forum_send_private_message_link()`And not:
`bp_forum_get_send_private_message_link()`In reply to: Showing random group membersbp-dev.org references an outdated version of BuddyPress.
There currently does not appear to be a random parameter for the group members loop.
One way around this is by using BP_Groups_Member::get_all_for_group() combined with a regular members loop.
With BP_Groups_Member::get_all_for_group() (available in /bp-groups/bp-groups-classes.php). Pass your group ID and it will return an array. One of the items in the array is the member IDs. You could then randomize the IDs yourself to a regular members loop:
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-members-loop/Could also experiment with the `type` parameter with the “random” argument.
In reply to: Showing profile fields outside of profileThis should give you some tips:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/get-buddypress-profile-field-valueIn reply to: Get IP address that can pass current $user_ID?You can’t change that because WordPress doesn’t save the user’s IP address by default, so you’ll have to wait until the user next logs in to your site to save the IP.
In reply to: Add a new TabSorry hnla, you’re right; if you’re not using ajax, the code should be:
<li id="forums-newttab" class="no-ajax"><a href="YOUR LINK">Another Forum Loop</a></li>tubruk – if you upgrade BP, you will lose your changes made to bp-default/_inc/ajax.php. I would recommend the filter available in the bp_dtheme_ajax_querystring() function.
In reply to: Blog post comments in activity stream?Try setting your activity stream filter to “No filter” or “Show Blog Comments” and see if that helps.
Also like claudeg said, it might be a plugin conflict. If you have “Block Activity Stream Types” enabled, you might have accidentally blocked blog post comments.
In reply to: Activity stream not showing commentsTry this WordPress Disqus plugin to import your existing Disqus comments back onto your blog:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/disqus-comment-system/In reply to: All Old Topics in the Forum Page is GoneCheck to see if the forum topics exist in the database.
The DB table is “wp_bb_posts”. If there are posts in that table, then that’s good! You could then try repairing the database table.
Could also be a plugin conflict. If you’re running any caching plugins, try flushing the cache, or disabling the plugin.
