After you register a user, do you see a message that starts with You have successfully created your account! ?

If you do, your function should work.

You could try putting it in the theme/functions.php

Putting code directly into a template is okay if you create a template overload.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

The right way is to use a template overload.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

I’m not aware of any.
And any such plugin would need to be specific to the code used for membership plans.
Writing such a plugin should be straightforward.
You can post Jobs here.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

I’ve not seen your issue before.
It may be a bug.
You can submit a possible bug here.
Be sure to include info about the browser you’re using and the hosting environment.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

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

Add this wherever you like in that template:
bp_displayed_user_fullname();

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

Can you upload and display member avatars?

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

That is odd.
It’s difficult to suggest a solution when replicating the issue is nigh impossible.
But maybe more info about the issue can be generated…

Try using a WP theme like 2013, deactivating bbPress and turning debug on in wp-config.php
https://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG

The file is getting uploaded to “wp-content/uploads/group-avatars/4/” but doesn’t appear on the group.

Does anything appear on the group? View source or use a browser code inspector to take a close look.

I’d try using this hook: do_action( 'bp_activity_add', $r ); from bp-activity/bp-activity-functions.php

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

It looks like an issue with your theme.
To confirm – try switching to a WP theme like 2015 and see if the problem remains.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

Please use the code button when sharing code.

I don’t have much experience with multisite, but you’re adding meta based on this hook:
add_action('bp_activity_posted_update', 'where_activity_from', 10, 3);

A lot of activity entries are not updates, so maybe that is why your filtered stream is so sparse.

Sometimes it’s easier and faster to test a query directly in a db tool like phpmyadmin first.
There may be an easier way to get blog-specific entries without adding meta.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

…which I have uploaded to the root of the buddpress folder

It should go in the root of the plugins folder.

bp-custom.php

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

The filter call is:
apply_filters_ref_array( 'bp_get_activity_content_body', array( $activities_template->activity->content, &$activities_template->activity ) );

Your function expects 2 parameters. Your add_filter call states there is only one.

And there is only one – an array.
Read about that kind of filter https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/apply_filters_ref_array

Try something like this:

function cshp_add_thumbs_to_activity( $array ) { 
     $post_id = $array[1]->secondary_item_id;
    //etc

    $array[0] = // new content

    return $array; 

}
add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_content_body', 'cshp_add_thumbs_to_activity', 15, 1 );

Members need to be logged in before they can send a PM.
If you’d like to provide a user / pw, somebody might take a closer look.

You’re using a custom theme – does its member-header.php include
do_action( 'template_notices' ); ?
If not, the feedback messages will not appear.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

i’ve discussed this with the theme creators and was told it was an issue with the plugin.

Try switching to a WP theme like 2015.
Do the warnings stop appearing?
If so, then the problem is caused by something in your preferred theme.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

The Group Extension API is the best way to add a page & creation step.

Group Extension API

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

To find out how to over-ride the capabilities of bbPress user roles, you should ask on the bbPress support forum.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

Please do not double post

The default role for bbPress is Participant.
How did you set it to Spectator?
And why?
Do you not want members to be able to post in group forums?

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

Scenario 1 is easy:

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

Use bp_get_the_profile_field_name() to determine of the current user should be able to see the field – based on the current member’s PMP level.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

Use the sort parameter.

Activity Loop

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

can anyone tell me how i could for instance output only label for email?

In register.php…

<?php while ( bp_profile_fields() ) : bp_the_profile_field(); ?>

     if( 'Email' == bp_get_the_profile_field_name() )
        echo 'Email: this is the email field';

//etc

You could use that approach for xprofile fields.
But ’email’ is not an xprofile field.
It is hardcoded in register.php ~Line 77

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

According to the ticket, it should be in the 2.4 release, which should be the next release.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

Register and Activate pages directs to home page.

You need to be logged out to see those pages.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

There is now a free plugin that allows site admins to view messages.
You can get it here: http://www.philopress.com/products/bp-messages-tool/
And it will be in the WP plugin repo soon.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

You need to acquire a basic understanding of WP hooks and filters; how they work and the difference between them. Then it will be obvious why ‘the above assignment’ doesn’t work.

The only reason william_bp_core_activated_user() has access to $user_id is because it is passed by the hook.

[@shanebp Moderator 11 years ago]

Try using this hook do_action( 'bp_core_activated_user', $user_id, $key, $user );
from buddypress\bp-members\bp-members-functions.php
