Use this hook:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/user_register

…To create a user on the other site.

This assumes that the only data shared between the databases are the wp_users table entries.
And the registration process has to be identical.

>how would you normally set this kind of arrangement up?

Do you mean how do I work with clients or how would I approach writing the plugin?

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 2 months ago]

@jschodde
Thanks for sharing the warning and fix instructions.

However, a member’s id is used in most or all BP and WP tables.
For example, did you not have to update the user_id in wp_bp_activity ?

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 2 months ago]

You have other 404 problems too…
http://www.badgerakpsi.org/directory/user/26

So there is a larger problem with your page assignments or permalink structure or some custom theme code.

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 2 months ago]

profile/edit/group/1
is the correct structure as in
members/bob/profile/edit/group/1/

The ‘group’ refers to a profile group.
The ‘1’ means the base group as set up here:
wp-admin/users.php?page=bp-profile-setup

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 2 months ago]

So a member has to make a separate donation to see each new message trail?

This will require the hiring of a buddypress developer to create a custom plugin.

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 3 months ago]

I don’t think you can over-ride that function and unfortunately it doesn’t use apply_filters.
So calling your own function is probably the way to to.

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 3 months ago]

Something like:

$field_check = xprofile_get_field_data( 'the field name', bp_displayed_user_id() );

if ( 'Physician' == $field_check ) 
    // show a button

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 3 months ago]

Try putting this in your wp-config.php file:

define( 'BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'profile' );

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 3 months ago]

In
\buddypress.1.8\buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\member-header.php

Find
do_action( ‘bp_member_header_actions’ );

If that action is not in your custom theme, the buttons will not appear.

As always, the simple way to check is to switch your theme to the wordpress 2012 theme.
If the buttons appear, the fault is in your custom theme.

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 3 months ago]

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

See
do_action( ‘xprofile_updated_profile’, bp_displayed_user_id(), $posted_field_ids, $errors );

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 3 months ago]

Good idea.

You should submit an enhancement ticket on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/
And if you can submit a patch with the ticket… even better.

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 3 months ago]

You don’t need to query the field_data twice

<?php
$bpProfileField = bp_get_profile_field_data( 'field=What makes me tick...&user_id=' . get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) );
if ( empty ( $bpProfileField) ):
?>
<p>Apparently <?php echo get_the_author() ?> does not feel like sharing anything. Isn't this sad?</p>
<?php else: ?>
<p><?php echo $bpProfileField; ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 3 months ago]

You can google BuddyPress functions or grep the source or check the codex.

bp_profile_field_data will echo the result.

You want to use bp_get_profile_field_data which just returns the result.
Then you need to tweak your conditional to check for ’empty’ rather than a boolean.
if ( empty ( $some_var ) )

Also note the apply_filters hook in that function ( and many others)
I’ll bet you’ll find that interesting.

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 3 months ago]

Still happening for me here.
Intermittent and inconsistent – glad it’s not my bug assignment.

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 3 months ago]

Use bp_get_group_member_id() and pass the id to xprofile_get_field_data(…)

If you can’t figure it out and/or you want to honor field visibility settings,
there is a premium plugin available: BuddyProfileData

@mercime
Thx for the link.
It’d be nice to have a choice.

Have you tried the beta?

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 4 months ago]

in wp-config.php, on its own line, paste:
define( 'BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'profile' );

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 4 months ago]

>it is conflicting with other plugin

What other plugin ?
Deactivate that plugin. Does the Notice disappear?

That notice means that something, probably a plugin, is calling bp_setup_current_user too early.
But it’s just a Notice, not an Error.
So it may not be the source of the problem you’re having.

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 4 months ago]

@mercime
Thanks for pointing the OP to our PhiloPress plugin

@daol9999
Thanks for the purchase

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 4 months ago]

function tweak_button ( $button ) { 

	$button[link_text] = 'my icon ' . $button[link_text]; 
	return $button;

}
add_filter( 'bp_get_group_join_button', 'tweak_button', 1, 1 );

@darrenmeehan
>I’m not sure whether to fix a few things at a time or to do the massive rehaul I’d like to.

The old ‘improvements vs. legacy support’ dance.

It’s a free plugin ( and a sweet one ) so do what’s best for you.

I’d do the overhaul and require BP 1.7 + going forward.

[@shanebp Moderator 13 years, 4 months ago]

do you have ‘user groups’ selected in wp-admin Settings > BP ?

do you have ‘allow members to create groups’ selected in wp-admin Settings > BP > Settings ?
