For renaming things, the recommended practice is to use a language file:

Customizing Labels, Messages, and URLs

If you make a lot of changes, you should use that approach.

The ‘counting bubble’ is filled using sprintf.
You’re missing that call from your change.
You could try
$bp->bp_nav['messages']['name']='Mails <span>%d</span>';
But I’d be surprised if it works.

Here’s another method, that you can paste in your functions.php:

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

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

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

        case 'Messages':
            return 'Mails';
            			
        default:
            return $translated;
    }
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'sundev_change_buddypress_profile_tabs', 10, 3 );

Untested, but that should change the label in both a profile and the buddy-bar.

Yes, BP_User_Query now supports preserving the order the ‘user_ids’ parameter.

So if you’re using a function to collect member ids, take a look at

BP_User_Query

Note the last entry.

>…not used on the profile group tabs when the user is editing their profile

Try using the ‘xprofile_filter_profile_group_tabs’ filter hook in
bp_profile_group_tabs() in
\buddypress\bp-xprofile\bp-xprofile-template.php

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 7 months ago]

Don’t use ‘id’ in your plugin, use ‘field_id’ instead.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 7 months ago]

>I think it occurs because the user can not see the hidden fields.

The field is not hidden.
It doesn’t exist in the form because you skipped it.
But it is included in the hidden input ‘field_ids’, near the bottom of the form.
BP will try to save it, based on the fields ids, but not find it and then throw the error.

Instead of skipping, try changing the field type to hidden.

If you don’t want it in the form at all, then skip it AND remove it from the string of included ids.
Use bp_get_the_profile_group_field_ids() and do your removals and then put the new string in the ‘field_ids’ input field.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 7 months ago]

I’d use the approach @boonebgorges suggests – a custom table with these fields:
-user_id unique
-long
-lat

Then you don’t need any joins.

>individual forum posts are geo-tagged

Based on where they were created or based on the existing geo-tag for the user?
If the former, you can add a column to the custom table.
If the latter, you’re good to go.

@lonepalmus – let’s assume you’ve cleared all the am-I-a-dummy hints suggested so far.

The timing can be tricky on these things.
You might try changing the priority so that the function runs later.

Once I had an issue including a thumbnail in an entry for the activity stream upon the creation of a cpt.
The solution was to save the cpt as a draft, do the image handling, set the cpt to publish and then create the activity entry – at which point the image was available.
Your task is bit different, but it may be a hint.

>to use the normal bp loop functions to return all potential results regardless of location, and then write a PHP function to apply the radius test.

Don’t do that.

Use the radius, etc test first to gather matching user ids.
Then pass them to BP_User_Query, using the bp_pre_user_query_construct hook, so that you only have BP process the relevant ids.

Are you sure the post meta exists?
And exists at the moment you are calling it?

If your code is only a few lines, paste it here.
Otherwise make a gist.

[ You have Site Tracking selected here: /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bp-components ?]

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 7 months ago]

Unless you have some other ideas for the site, you don’t need BP.

Google ‘WordPress booking scheduling calendar’.
There are several premium plugins that should do the task.
Maybe somebody else here can may a direct recommendation.

You don’t have to add the do_action.
It already exists in the template file.

Just :
– remove any changes you made to the template
– add the function I provided to your theme/functions.php
– make sure all quotes are single and straight, sometimes they are changed during copy / paste.

I just did a test and it works fine.

Make sure that all quotes are not curved, as in
xprofile_get_field_data( ‘Location’
in the post above.
They should be straight, like the ones in the add_action in the post above.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 7 months ago]

Remove your changes.

Untested, but try this in your theme/functions.php

function bbp_add_xprofile_field() { 
  $user_location = xprofile_get_field_data( ‘Location’, bbp_get_reply_author_id() ) ;
  if (strlen($user_location) > 0 ) 
   echo 'Location: ' . $user_location;
}
add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'bbp_add_xprofile_field' );

> exclude creation of public groups and comments posted in them from displaying in the activity stream.

Changing to $hide_sitewide will prevent it from appearing anywhere ( including the group activity stream ) except the activity stream for the person who created the item.

You probably want items to appear in the group stream, so try this in bp-custom.php or your theme functions.php

function remove_groups_from_activity( $activity ) { 
  if( $activity->component == 'groups' )
    $activity->hide_sitewide = true; 
}
add_action( 'bp_activity_before_save', 'remove_groups_from_activity', 1, 1); 

Of course, this will only apply to new activity items.

Then you need to ‘reveal’ those hidden items in a group stream…

Create a template overload of this file:
\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\activity\activity-loop.php

Then before the loop, check if you’re viewing a group and if so, then change the
bp_has_activities call to:

if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( 'activity' ) . '&show_hidden=true') ) :

The activity stream is quite flexible:

Just looked at your site.
All page url include ‘index.php’.

I don’t know why, but suggest you do a search or ask on the WP forums.

You’re not the first to have this problem:
https://wordpress.org/search/remove+index.php+from+urls

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 7 months ago]

Permanently delete the Groups page – don’t just put it in the Trash.

Then go to /admin.php?page=bp-page-settings
And assign or create a new page for User Groups

If that doesn’t work, then there is some other problem with either your BP or WP install.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 7 months ago]

The problem is the ‘index.php’ in your url.

On this screen: /wp-admin/options-permalink.php
Is ‘Post name’ selected?

On this screen: wp-admin/options-general.php
what does WordPress Address (URL) say?
And Site Address (URL) say?

Go to Pages > Groups and click edit.
If you see ‘index.php’ in the permalink, remove it.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 7 months ago]

There are 4 tables related to xprofile. The table names all include _bp_xprofile_.

If you’re looking at the correct database and cannot see them, then there is not much anyone can do to help you.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 7 months ago]

Have you activated groups via the checkbox on this screen?
/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bp-components

Have you assigned a page to Groups via this screen?
/wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-page-settings

@henrywright – ‘Close, but you’re way off’. -homer simpson

Problematic:
bp_modify_page_title( $argument1, $argument2 )

Valid:
bp_modify_page_title( $argument1, $argument2, $argument3 )

Specific:
bp_modify_page_title( $title, $sep, $seplocation )

@mib314 – your best bet is to file a ticket with the creators of your theme.
They’re probably calling wp_title() without passing all three arguments.
So the BP filter call is throwing the warnings.

[@shanebp Moderator 12 years, 7 months ago]

It is simple, if you use the correct parameter, anyway…

Create a template overload of this file:
\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\activity\activity-loop.php

Then change this:
<?php if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( 'activity' ) ) ) : ?>

To this:

<?php
$friends = friends_get_friend_user_ids( bp_loggedin_user_id() );
$friends[] = bp_loggedin_user_id();
$friends_and_me = implode( ',', (array) $friends );
$friends_and_me =  '&user_id=' . $friends_and_me;
?>

<?php if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( 'activity' ) . $friends_and_me) ) :  ?>

That should be a simple task using the ‘include’ parameter in the activity loop.

But I just tried it and couldn’t get it to work.

Perhaps I did something dumb…
