Hi ,
The best way to do so will be using the languages file.
you will find the BuddyPress languages file in budypress/bp-languages

Use poedit(or any other software) to translate it. Change the Group/Groups with the desired text and save the generated mo file as buddypress-yourLocal.mo e.g buddypress-en_US.mo for the US English.

Hi Henry,
It is already there in the friends tab(in the user menu) for the displayed user.

If you want to display it somewhere else on the profile, you can use this function as

`

`

Hope that helps.

Hi @elangley,
sorry I could not reply earlier(was a little bit busy with some personal stuff).

Just checked today the case by writing posts on sub network and It showed up correctly on my local install. I am using Sub directory install though(It should not affect the sub domain install I believe). Can you confirm if you already have BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG defined in your bp-custom.php or wp-config.php ?

@djpaul, @mercime, Thank you for the mention. My apologies for not responding to this topic earlier. I had got the notification.

[@sbrajesh Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

thank you Mercime for the mention

I am linking to the membership limit plugin directly here

@obber please try this one

Hope that helps.

Thank you @mercime for the mention.
@jainsmo just replied to your post there. It is possible to have rectangular avatar.
do you want to have rectangular avatar for profile but square for groups etc or you want to have square for thumb but rectangular for larger image ?

[@sbrajesh Participant 14 years, 9 months ago]

You may want to try this code

@wedeem
Thank you but I had updated the plugin on 10th September with the exact same changes

https://github.com/sbrajesh/limit-groups-per-user

I missed to put it on wp repo. will do that today.

Thank you.

Hi there,
The url may not be exactly as you wanted(since the profile becomes default component, the profile slug is not shown in the url for the first time), but the tab opened on user profile should be profile tab. Can you please check if the default landing page is not user profile(Under the user navigation tabs).

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 1 month ago]

Seem like you are using standard wordpress. You will need to enable the multisite mode.
here is the codex page for that

https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

hope that helps.

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 1 month ago]

No problem. glad it helped

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 1 month ago]

Thank you @mikey3d for letting me know. Glad you got it solved

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 1 month ago]

put this either in bp-custom.php or wp-config.php

`
define(‘BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT’,’profile’);
`
That will do it.

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 1 month ago]

@kirkslater,
Since you asked it in another thread, here is what you need

Put this function in your functions.php or bp-custom.php

/**
* Get Age from BuddyPress date of Birth
* <a href='https://buddypress.org/community/members/param/' rel='nofollow'>@param</a> string $dob_field_name :name of the DOB field in xprofile, like Dob or Date of Birth
* <a href='https://buddypress.org/community/members/param/' rel='nofollow'>@param</a> int $user_id : the user for which you want to retrieve the age
* <a href='https://buddypress.org/community/members/param/' rel='nofollow'>@param</a> string $format: the way you want to print the difference, look t  for the acceptable agrs
* @return string :the formatted age in year/month
*/

function bpdev_get_age_from_dob($dob_field_name,$user_id=false,$format="%y Years, %m Month(s), %d days"){
if(!$user_id)
$user_id=bp_displayed_user_id ();

$dob_time=xprofile_get_field_data($dob_field_name, $user_id);//get the datetime as myswl datetime

$dob=new DateTime($dob_time);//create a DateTime Object from that

$current_date_time=new DateTime();//current date time object
//calculate difference
$diff= $current_date_time->diff($dob);//returns DateInterval object
//format and return
return $diff->format($format);

}

and Now you can output the age anywhere using

echo "Age".bpdev_get_age_from_dob("DOB Field Name");//display for the displayed user

//or
echo "Your Age".bpdev_get_age_from_dob("DOB Field Name",bp_loggedin_user_id());//display for logged in user

You can pass the Dob field name, user_id and the format in which you want to show the difference.
here is the gist in case the code gets garbled: https://gist.github.com/1257476
Hope that helps.

PS: It will need php 5.3.3 or above.

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 1 month ago]

@kirkslater,
you are most welcome. Checking that thread in a minute

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 1 month ago]

Hi,
It may be a css or javascript issue. Do you see any error in the console?
Can you check and make sure you get something like this in the html tab of firebug

http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/4815/usernameavailabilityche.png

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 1 month ago]

Try this

<?php $location = xprofile_get_field_data('Location', bp_get_group_member_id());
if(!empty($location)) : ?>

just pass bp_get_group_member_id() as the second parameter to xprofile_get_field_data.

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

You seem to be using older version of BuddyPress/ Bp-theme.

Upgrade your BuddyPress(and also the theme if you are using a different theme than bp-default). This is happening because the jquery included in wp3.2 is jquery v 1.6.1(which changed the way some of the properties are accessed).

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

You will need to upgrade your BuddyPress to 1.2.9.
Upgrade the BP and It will be fixed.

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

Hi Greg, which version of wp/bp you are using. Also, is it multisite install(I guess, It is). Have you used anything to enable spaces in username, because wpms/bp does not allow spaces in name by default?

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 3 months ago]

Hi Greg,
Put this in bp-custom.php
`
define(‘BP_ENABLE_USERNAME_COMPATIBILITY_MODE’,true);
`
this should allow you to see their profile.

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 4 months ago]

put this in your bp-custom.php and change the redirect page url properly.

`
add_action(“template_redirect”,”my_redirect”);
function my_redirect(){

if( !is_user_logged_in()&&is_front_page()){

wp_safe_redirect(get_bloginfo(‘wpurl’).”/about”);
exit(0);
}
}
`

That should work.

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 4 months ago]

Hi Matt,
The best way would be to look for a filter in those functions and then change the output by adding your own functions on those filters.

There is no way to tell wordpress to unregister a function unless it is used by an action/filter.
So, will suggest to look into those functions and find appropriate filter to hook your function and change the output.

Hope that helps.

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 4 months ago]

@findly.tk
ooh wow, I never thought about that. I am updating it today again and that will allow users to choose this. nice point

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 4 months ago]

@blueinkalchemist
There seems something strange with the urls though.
It works
http://designatedsketcher.maidenhosting.com/category/contest

as well as this one
https://thedesignatedsketcher.com/category/contest

How do you manage to do that. That might have something to do with the conflict. hopefully, It will help further to understand the issue.

[@sbrajesh Participant 15 years, 4 months ago]

Hi,
It most probably seems like javascript conflict/error.
Do you use firefox. If yes, check the console(Even better if you use firebug addon) and please let us know if you see any error there ?
