Yes, the above is a rather awkward solution.

Just occurred to me that you could extract the info you need from the $settings_link arg passed by the $email_content filter hook to further query the database and/or rebuild $email_content – and so avoid filtering wp_mail

I think it would be a reasonable request that the
$email_content filter hook in messages_notification_new_message include $ud.

It’s a simple change, so please submit an enhancement ticket:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/

[ We may find out that there is an existing and simple solution ! ]

>adding the two on the end is useless

You can’t add new args to an apply_filters call.

You might try using the first filter in wp_mail()
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.9.1/src/wp-includes/pluggable.php#L225

And then use the ‘to’ value to query the database directly to retrieve the recip’s username.
Look at https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/wpdb, in particular $wpdb->get_var

Then you can rebuild ‘message’.

Of course the add_filter function needs a conditional check so that you don’t mess with other wp-mail calls.
I do something like:
-use one of the filters in function messages_notification_new_message to add a keyword
-check for that keyword in your filter function for wp_mail()

btw- wp_mail is pluggable, so you can overload it with your own function, but that shouldn’t be necessary.

Group avatars are stored in /wp-content/uploads/group-avatars/[group_id]

So to ‘set’ each one, you have to mkdir, create file names, upload a full and & thumb version for each group. I’ve done it; it’s a pita.

Given that you’re always using the same avatar, filtering the function is easier and would be my choice.

Nice.

There is definitely a need for BP Themes aka Template Packages.

When the upper right mobile-mode nav is clicked, the layout is rather awkward.

Please keep these forums informed of your progress.
This will be a premium theme?
There are some good testers here that might be willing to take a look: hnla, mercime

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

Use init?
Maybe, I’m not sure when is_user_logged_in() first becomes available.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 5 months ago]

@henrywright

minor point: why wait until template_redirect?
I believe that is called after all the content has been queried.
So maybe do it sooner?
I usually hook on ‘wp’ or ‘wp_loaded’.

BuddyProfileData

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 6 months ago]

Try this in bp-custom.php or your theme functions.php:

function jeff_change_buddypress_profile_tabs( $translated, $original_text, $domain ) {

    if ( 'buddypress' !== $domain )  {
        return $translated; 
    }

    switch ( $original_text ) {
    
        case 'Groups <span>%d</span>':
            return 'Bongos <span>%d</span>';

        case 'Groups':
            return 'Bongos';
            
        default:
            return $translated;
    }
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'jeff_change_buddypress_profile_tabs', 10, 3 );

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 6 months ago]

Are you sure group_id is being set?

Take another look at :
function xprofile_insert_field() in bp-xprofile\bp-xprofile-functions.php

Try passing an array to $args for xprofile_insert_field
Like you did with xprofile_insert_field_group

$args = your array;

xprofile_insert_field( $args );

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 6 months ago]

Yes.
Start by taking a look at :

function xprofile_insert_field() in bp-xprofile\bp-xprofile-functions.php

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 6 months ago]

@henrywright Thank you.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 6 months ago]

Make sure the code is in bp-custom.php and between the php tags

> Should I remove all BuddyPress files in the theme template?

Try that.
We don’t know anything about your theme.
BP treats all themes the same, premium or free.
But since BP 1.7 (?), theme handling has changed.

Rather than try to ‘fix’ all those issues, imo. your time would be better spent switching to a new theme. It’s an opportunity 🙂 And will probably take less time that puzzling out all those issues.

But I’m not a theme expert; perhaps one of those folks will provide a more informed suggestion.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 6 months ago]

So there are 2 different databases, yes?

How time sensitive is the data?
For example, if you only need it every 24 hours, I would set up a wp-cron job on the BP site and write the total members value to a file.
Then call that file value into the non-BP site.

You’re probably going to get a series of fatal errors.

If they are all similar – as these 2 were – remove the ampersand &
So for the latest error:
&$paged_users will be $paged_users

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 6 months ago]

That is an old version of BP.

You could try changing the apply_filters to
return apply_filters( 'bp_core_get_users', BP_Core_User::get_users( $type, $per_page, $page, $user_id, $include, $search_terms, $populate_extras ), $params );

That might get you past the fatal error.
You should update BP, but you cannot jump all the way to BP 2.0.
You’ll have to step up thru each version.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 6 months ago]

I don’t know of a plugin that does that.

The problem is that usernames are unique, but display names are not.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 6 months ago]

Nice – and obvious 🙂

Querying the db directly should be avoided if possible – [laziness and bad habit].

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 6 months ago]

untested, goes in bp-custom.php

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

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

	$querystring['exclude'] = '1'; // change '1' to your user_id

	return $querystring;

}
add_filter( 'bp_ajax_querystring', 'oc_filter_ajax_querystring', 20, 2 );

>it would be possible to make friends, groups, posts, etc in a full interactive way without a registration?

No.
Everything is dependent on knowing who the person is, iow. their id
Assignment of an id is done during registration.
