How does someone who does not constantly do coding for a living really get BuddyPress to function?

The primary intended audience for users of the BuddyPress codebase: Site Builders and WordPress Developers.

The widgets and shortcodes you tried ( BuddyPress Sitewide Activity ? ) probably do not include the images because widgets generally output a compressed view and images can take a lot of screen area. It would be relatively simple to tweak such a widget to include activity images.

I have been able to add it for everyone…

How did you do that?
Wrap it in a conditional: if ( bp_is_my_profile() ) {...}

[@shanebp Moderator 9 years, 11 months ago]

Please do not call out people directly unless they have already responded to your thread.

You’re using a premium theme and one, maybe two, premium plugins.
Your questions should be directed to the support provided by your purchases.
You might find somebody here willing to help you.
And you have a better chance of getting help if you show what you’ve already tried.

Try the solution near the bottom of this codex page:
https://codex.buddypress.org/emails/#filter-from-address-and-name

add_action( 'bp_email', function( $email_type, $email_obj ) {
$email_obj->set_from( "custom@example.com", "Custom Website Name" );
}, 10, 2 );

[@shanebp Moderator 9 years, 11 months ago]

What is thread_id? if(!thread_id) {
Try removing that conditional.

Please do not double post.

[@shanebp Moderator 9 years, 12 months ago]

This works for me when pasted in either theme/functions.php or bp-custom.php
And using the short code on a post or page.

function sbp_show_number_of_members( $atts ){
	$count_members = bp_get_total_site_member_count();
	return $count_members;
}

function sbp_register_shortcodes() {
	add_shortcode('member-count', 'sbp_show_number_of_members'); 

}
add_action('init', 'sbp_register_shortcodes');  

[@shanebp Moderator 9 years, 12 months ago]

Try fixing the code first.
Should be:

function register_shortcodes() {
	add_shortcode('member_count', 'show_number_of_members'); // fixed
	add_shortcode( 'postcount', 'post_count_function' );
}

add_action('init', 'register_shortcodes');  // fixed

You’ll need to debug.
Did you try switching from the groups component to members, as I suggested?

echo bp_current_action(); shows the current action.

echo bp_current_component(); shows the current component.

Remove the call to send_transfer_offer() until you’re sure you’re checking for the correct conditions.

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

You need to check if the button was clicked.
Try something like this:

function jay_check_transfer_click() {
	
    if ( !bp_is_groups_component() && !bp_is_current_action( 'transfer_offer' ) ) 
	return false;
	
     send_transfer_offer();
	
}		
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'jay_check_transfer_click' );

In all your code, you may want to reference the members component instead of groups.

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

Switch momentarily to a WP standard & free theme that comes with WP – like TwentyThirteen, etc.
Then check to see if your issue still exists – if it doesn’t, then you know the issue is somewhere in your premium theme.

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

bp_member_profile_data() will echo the data, so you shouldn’t add an echo.

Try:

$originalDate = bp_get_member_profile_data( 'field=geboortedatum' );
$newDate = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($originalDate));
echo $newDate;

More info on the php date function:

Create a template over-load of this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\member-header.php

In the overload, remove the span that shows the last_activity blurb.

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

Re appearing on the members list, you can handle them has a batch; much faster than logging in as each member.

For example, for all subscribers:

function steve_add_last_activity() {

  $subscribers =  get_users( 'fields=ID&role=subscriber' );
  
   foreach ( $subscribers as $user_id ) {

        bp_update_user_last_activity( $user_id, bp_core_current_time() );

   }

}
//add_action('bp_init', 'steve_add_last_activity' );

Uncomment the add_action ( iow. remove the // ) whenever you want to use the function.
Put it in your theme functions.php or in bp-custom.php

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

A bit simpler approach is to create a variable:

$display = false;
if ( is_super_admin() || bp_is_my_profile() )
   $display = true; 

Then use it:

...
'show_for_displayed_user' => $display
...

Testing will require a login.
Can you post a user name / password for testing?

Can you post the url that throws the 404?

also – just curious – which plugin are you using to pull the Facebook feed in the footer?

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

In your filter functions, why not check for page_id or title – if not available, then just return.

Without seeing the code, we cannot tell why your custom filters are being called on the default Members Directory page.

If you want to share the code – please do not post it here.
Instead, create a gist and share the link to that gist.

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

How are you loading your page template?
Have you tried checking the page title?

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

The id is zero due to the way BP constructs those pages.
The how and why is a long answer – you may want to look at the codebase to see the how.

In any event, you will not be able to change that.
Your best bet is to add to the display conditions the user has set.

Perhaps…

Give them an option to select the Groups Directory page.
Then use bp_is_groups_directory() to check if they are on that page.

Or maybe specific single groups.
Then check to see if they are on a single group page by using groups_get_current_group().

So the basic approach is to use template tags to find out where the user is and then show or not show an ad based on the the display conditions the user has set.

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

You mean you’re using this [bp_members] as a shortcode?
BuddyPress does not provide that shortcode, afaik.
So, you are using some plugin that provides that shortcode.
You need to pose your question the the author of that plugin.

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

Only members with the capability ‘bp_moderate’ will see that checkbox option.
And only site administrators are given that capability.
So unless you have a plugin that gives that capability to other members, nobody else can see that option. To check, log into your site as a non-admin.

If you still want to remove it, create a template overload of this file:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\messages\compose.php
In your overload, remove this:

<?php if ( bp_current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' ) ) : ?>
	<p><label for="send-notice"><input type="checkbox" id="send-notice" name="send-notice" value="1" /> <?php _e( "This is a notice to all users.", 'buddypress' ); ?></label></p>
<?php endif; ?> 

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

It is not stored in the database.
It is constructed – for an example, see:
http://hookr.io/functions/bp_core_get_user_domain/

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years ago]

Try:

function communityprofile_screen() {
   bp_core_redirect( site_url( '/community/profile/' . bp_displayed_user_username() ) );
}

[@shanebp Moderator 10 years, 1 month ago]

Manually delete the existing entries.
Place this in your theme/functions.php or in bp-custom.php to prevent creation of new entries.

function bp_activity_do_not_save( $activity_object ) {
	$exclude = array(
	        'updated_profile',
	        'new_member'
	    );
	
	if( in_array( $activity_object->type, $exclude ) )
		$activity_object->type = false;
}
add_action('bp_activity_before_save', 'bp_activity_do_not_save', 10, 1 );
