Thanks.
No need to be sparse with the ticket description and your fix.
I’ve amended the ticket.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years, 12 months ago]

It can be rather complex.
And you don’t want to call a whole WP page into that area.
You only want part of that page, probably the_content.
The easiest way is to simply put your markup up in a function…

function my_invitation_template() {
  add_action( 'bp_template_content', 'my_invitation_template_content' );
  bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( 'bp_core_template_plugin', 'members/single/plugins' ) );
}

function my_invitation_template_content() {
  echo "put content here";
}

To call a custom template, do a search for bp_get_template_part.

Confirmed.
Might be a bug.
Please create a ticket on trac.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years, 12 months ago]

At 3M users the issue is the configuration of your servers.

So, yes, BP can handle it IF you know how to setup and manage an array of servers.

Management and setup of such an array requires good server administrator skills.
And is way beyond the scope of this forum.

>the expected database size

There is no way to give you a number.
Here’s an adjective: Big.
The biggest table would be the activity table.

Please use pastebin to show us your function.

>Buddypress update broke my site

iow. there are some compatibility issues with a couple of other plugins

Did you try using a standard theme like WP 2012 to see if any of the issues are caused by your theme?

Did you ask the creators BuddyPress Activity Plus about your issue re that plugin?

BP ( and WP for that matter ) don’t take other plugins into account when they create an update.

These issues are not infrequent.
A decent developer can solve them.

You might be happier staying with the version of BP that you were happy with.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years, 12 months ago]

Because that’s ‘where’ the hook is.

Take a look at
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\member-header.php

Use one of the do_action hooks or create a template overload of that page and put your code in it.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years, 12 months ago]

Go to yoursite… /wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-settings

And adjust ‘Groups Settings’

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years, 12 months ago]

Look at
class BP_Notifications_Notification
function save
in
buddypress\bp-notifications\bp-notifications-classes.php

There are 2 hooks you can use to add_action
bp_notification_before_save or bp_notification_after_save

Read this.

You have to find the hooks in ‘other plugins’ for triggering an add notification.

You could set the xprofile field and then use the stackexchange.com example to swap in that url on a per user basis.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

Read the Answer here.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

I believe it only runs when a profile is updated.
Try doing a ‘save’ on a BP profile – edit screen.

If it works, at least you know the sync is working going forward.

That doesn’t address your real issue re all your existing users.
You’ll probably need to write some code that loops thru your users and creates xprofile fields for them.

Take a look at function xprofile_set_field_data in
bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-functions.php

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

Have you enabled ‘Profile Syncing’ on this page: …/wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-settings ?

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

You don’t need BP for what you describe.
Try searching for a WP plugin that handles subscriptions to posts.
You’ll probably need to write some custom code too.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

Try adding this just above the endwhile

<?php endif; ?>

btw – this isn’t the proper forum for basic php coding questions.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

also – your links point to:

<a href="http://www.JenniferMFitness.com/groups/new-year-new-you/">New Year, New You</a>

Note the capitals in the href.

You might want to try changing them to lower case in wp-admin/options-general.php
in the WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) fields.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

Then it’s probably something in your server setup.
I would ask your hosting provider for help with a redirect loop.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

Then it may be your .htaccess file.
It should look like this:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

You have a redirect loop.
This is probably due to a function in your theme or some other plugin.
To narrow down the issue, try switching to a standard WP theme like 2013.
Try deactivating plugins one at a time.

You also have an issue re profiles.
For example, your profile link is
http://www.jennifermfitness.com/profile/JennMFitness/
which is 404 (not found)

The ‘correct’ BP url is:
http://www.jennifermfitness.com/members/jennmfitness/
And that also causes a redirect loop.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

>because it’s integrated in vibe theme

BP doesn’t need to be integrated into a theme.
Install BP separately and test with a standard WP theme.
Then you’ll get more info re whether the bottleneck is your server or BP or…

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

In addition to the above suggestions – you can switch to a WP theme like 2013 and see if the site loads quicker. If so, then you know the main bottleneck is the vibe theme.

This will get you started re filter:

function ericreynolds007_filter_ajax_querystring( $querystring = '', $object = '' ) {

	if( $object != 'members' )
		return $querystring;

	$defaults = array(
		'type'            => 'active',
		'action'          => 'active',
		'scope'           => 'all',
		'page'            => 1,
		'user_id'         => 0,
		'search_terms'    => '',
		'exclude'         => false,
	);

	$dtj_querystring = wp_parse_args( $querystring, $defaults );

	if( $dtj_querystring['type'] == 'alphabetical' ) {
	
		$users = get_users('role=editor');
			
		$users_str = '';
		foreach ( $users as $user ) {
	           $users_str .=  $user->ID . ',';
	        }
		$users_str = rtrim($users_str, ",");
		
		$dtj_querystring['include'] = $users_str; 
		
		return $dtj_querystring;
		
	}
	else
		return $querystring;
			
}
add_filter( 'bp_ajax_querystring', 'ericreynolds007_filter_ajax_querystring', 20, 2 );

The key parts are the ‘include’ which restricts the query to those users.
This example gathers all users with role=editor.
You’ll have to figure out how to collect the ids of the board members.
You might try using the ‘type’ field in the bp_activity table.
SELECT user_id FROM .... WHERE type = 'last_activity'

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years ago]

Is it only alphabetical that does that?
‘Last Active’ shouldn’t.
What about ‘Newest Registered’ ?

Alphabetical sorts against the display_name field in the wp_users table, so you might have to write a filter.
How many BP users do you have?
