Yes the plugin will use a lot of resources, in the form of spikes.

A lot depends on the amount of resources you have available.

From what you’ve written, it seems that the ‘load’ would come from creating matches based on the questionnaire, not from the actual questionnaire. So storing those answers in another database probably may not help…[Read more]

Your question is not simple 🙂

re First: I don’t think a webservice will reduce the load

re Second: each request does Not require reloading WP

Since you’re generating and processing the requests ‘locally’, using a webservice might slow things down, depending on the setup of your servers.

This is different from what you’re doing, but might be…[Read more]

For option a) , put this:

define( 'BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'profile' );

in your bp-custom.php file.

You could use this or study it to write your own:

Please read: https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/wpdb

In members/index.php, you will see this:
<?php bp_get_template_part( 'members/members-loop' ); ?>

Either create your own template and call it there.
Or adjust the members/members-loop.php file.

Since you are using a child theme, probably easiest to go with the adjust-file approach.

Based on what you’re doing, there is no need to change…[Read more]

Re your rebuild of the ajax_querystring…
It’s even better to remove yourself before that query is constructed.
Take a look at this hook: bp_pre_user_query_construct

Re remove group admin from loop…
That’s a tough one.
I recall not being able to do that or that the consequences were too ugly or some fail.
This is kinda of clunky – but…[Read more]

@xkronik13x
Thanks much for the map.
Do you know when it was generated ?

Please add the patch to the ticket so that core devs can decide if they want it.

@henrywright-1 Solve that one !

@bphelp Thanks for the pointer.

@buddhatunes Thanks for the purchase. Looks good on your site.

>This would be something different than their username.

You mean different than their user_id ?

You can create anything you like, such as integer assigned to a user.
How you create it, where you store it and how you use it will require knowledge of WP, BP, php and mysql.

Any reason not to use bp_xprofile_get_hidden_fields_for_user() ?

It’s already an array. No need to turn it into an array. And that not how to create an array anyways.

Try:

<?php
global $wpdb;
$db_query = "SELECT user_id FROM wp_bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 13 AND value = 'Yes'";
$match_ids = $wpdb->get_col($db_query);
?>
<?php if ( bp_has_members( $match_ids ) ) : ?>

If that doesn’t work, try:…[Read more]

Make sure this exists on the page before the query:
global $wpdb;

then try: “SELECT user_id FROM wp_bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 13 AND value = ‘Yes'”;

or “SELECT user_id FROM wp_bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 13 AND value = $attend_value”;

I don’t recall if you have to implode the $get_these_members array before passing it to…[Read more]

I don’t think avatar folders are deleted when a user deletes their account.
But that shouldn’t matter because avatar folders are based on user_ids which are auto-incremented.

Are you saying that all new members end up with the image in this folder:
/wp-content/uploads/avatars/10

Do you have the same image selected as the default avatar under…[Read more]
