Total rewrite.

The hook runs after a BP profile is updated.
Write a function to see what was changed and then maybe send an email.

This should get you started…

function whelund_profile_updated(bp_displayed_user_id(), $posted_field_ids, $errors, $old_values, $new_values) {
  // dump the vars for orientation on what to write in the function
  var_dump( $posted_field_ids );
  // decide whether to send an email, then use wp_email() 
}
add_action( 'xprofile_updated_profile', 'whelund_profile_updated', 1, 5 );

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 4 months ago]

The hook you want is xprofile_updated_profile

Full hook:
do_action( 'xprofile_updated_profile', bp_displayed_user_id(), $posted_field_ids, $errors, $old_values, $new_values );

See buddypress\bp-xprofile\bp-xprofile-screens.php

Comments in all activity streams, including groups are not visible to the non-logged-in.

You can change that, but it will change it for all activity streams.

You need to create a template overload of this file:
\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\activity\entry.php

And then make your changes starting at ~Line 88.
Do not simply remove is_user_logged_in(). If you do, non-logged-in people will be able to comment!

What theme are you using?

Switch to a WP theme like TwentyTwelve and recheck the formatting.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

You don’t really need ‘prepare’ for a hard-coded query.

Your error is due to ‘prepare’ using of sprintf-like approach.
Read the codex: wpdb

Why use Select * when you only need ‘value’?
Why use get_row when you only need a single value? See ‘get_var’ in the link above.

But why are you making a wpdb call?

If you’re not in the member loop or on a member page, try
$radius = xprofile_get_field_data('name-of-radius-field', $user_id);
Otherwise, try:
bp_get_member_profile_data('field=name-of-radius-field');

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

Not a game changer, just requires (based on his code) a get_user_meta check.

>So I’m trying to do a member loop that shows only members with avatars.

And only members who have filled out ‘interests’.

Your code has some mistakes and unnecessary code.
I don’t know if this will help with the memory issue, but it should be a bit faster.

Yup, that would optimize it a lot.
But he’s also checking facebook avatars, so the flag needs to account for that.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

$defaults aren’t being passed by the filter.

Try:

add_filter('bp_member_avatar', 'mm_hide_name_in_alt_text', 1);
function mm_hide_name_in_alt_text( $var ) {
  var_dump( $var ); 
  return $var;
}

Then you should be able to tell what is being passed to the filter and adjust it accordingly.
You could also use the filters in bp_core_fetch_avatar()

@henrywright – can you ping me via the addy in my profile? thanks.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

You can post a job here:

BP Jobs Board

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

You could:

1. filter the bp_ajax_querystring

2. filter BP_User_Query

3. For each member that you import, add an entry to the {$wpdb->prefix}bp_activity table. The entry ‘type’ = ‘last_activity’ and requires a timestamp. That will make them ‘active’.

I suggest that #3 is your best approach.
How you create the entry is mainly based on how you’re importing.

It’s not stored in the database.

It’s in /wp-content/uploads/group-avatars/[group_id]/[…bpthumb or bpfull]

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

danbp’s function works fine here.
Although in BP 2.0+, bp_is_profile_edit() should be bp_is_user_profile_edit() to avoid the deprecation notice.

Are you sure you’re inserting the correct ids?

Try this and see if it hides the Name field:

$retval['exclude_fields'] = '1';

You can force the link. Try:

	bp_core_new_subnav_item( array(
	    'name'            => 'Create Virtual Village',
	    'slug'            => 'create',
	    'parent_url'      => 'groups',
	    'parent_slug'     => 'groups',
	    'screen_function' => 'false',
	    'position'        => 50,
	    'link'            =>   get_option('siteurl') . '/groups/create/step/group-details/'
	    )
	);

Are you using a custom activation page?

>Notice: bp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly.

That can be a tricky one to solve. It means it was called too early in the load order.

>Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_xprofile_create_field_type()

That means it was called before BP is loaded or is called on a non-BP page.

I suspect one of your plugins is causing this ( might be the theme ).
Try turning off your plugins one at a time.
The fact that it’s bp_xprofile_create_field_type() hints that it’s profile related.

If that doesn’t identify the culprit, try switching themes.

Then you’ll have to contact the creator and submit a bug report.
Or hire somebody to fix it for you.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

Try:

while ( bp_profile_fields() ) : bp_the_profile_field(); 
if ( bp_get_the_profile_field_id() != 'ID # YOU WANT TO SKIP' && bp_get_the_profile_field_id() != 'ID # 2nd field YOU WANT TO SKIP' ) :

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

@mika89

You’re probably calling the BP function before BP has loaded.
Read this: https://codex.buddypress.org/plugindev/checking-buddypress-is-active/

There may be additional problems with your code including the issue raised by @henrywright

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

@henrywright
Much better approach – thanks.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

Try

if( bp_get_group_id() == 5 ) 

or 

if( bp_get_group_id() == '5' ) 

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

Did you use poedit?

Did you include _x in Sources Keywords?

I don’t know why _x is used for ‘Sitewide Activity’.
You can see it in bp-activity\bp-activity-loader.php ~L. 109
