@shanebp

Thanks for the code. It seems to have one problem, but I think I fixed it, it now works for me.

The code you provided:

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

This brings up this error right after signing up:
Warning: Parameter 2 to {closure}() expected to be a reference, value given in /home/####/public_html/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 525

Changing &$email_obj to $email_obj worked for me. The following code works:

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

Ah thanks @shanebp. I use the followers plugin instead of using the friends component which is why it didn’t work.

Thanks @imaath And thanks for your involvement in the fantastic 2.4 release.

Just one quick thing. Is it possible to set this up so the default cover image works?

$cover_image_url = bp_attachments_get_attachment( 'url', array( 'item_id' => bp_displayed_user_id() ) ); doesn’t work for the default cover image:

function your_theme_xprofile_cover_image( $settings = array() ) {
        $settings['width']  = 1000;
        $settings['height'] = 333;
	$settings['default_cover'] = 'http://mysite/link-to-default-coverimage.jpg';
 
    return $settings;
}
add_filter( 'bp_before_xprofile_cover_image_settings_parse_args', 'your_theme_xprofile_cover_image', 10, 1 );
add_filter( 'bp_before_groups_cover_image_settings_parse_args', 'your_theme_xprofile_cover_image', 10, 1 );

Perfect. Just what I needed. Thanks @r-a-y.

I can set the size and default image from that article, but I’m still not sure how to display it in an img tag.

With the WordPress header image, you can display the admin header image in an img tag:

<img src="<?php header_image(); ?>" />

Is there a Buddypress equivalent for the WordPress function header_image() ?

* I meant to say CSS background-image: url() instead of background_url.

Is it possible to change this to an <img> tag instead? I just need to know what to put in the img src="" to display the member’s cover image.

Thanks in advance.
