xrun started the forum topic Issue when replying to activity entry in the group Creating & Extending: 14 years, 4 months ago

Hi. I got an issue when clicking to comment an entry in the activity loop. It should normally make room for and display the comment entry form, but here it seems to try to load the comment form, but then does not display it, and then quickly scrolls down the page a bit. If I […]
xrun posted on the forum topic Conditionally loading sidebars in the group Creating & Extending: 14 years, 4 months ago

Perfect, got it solved using this: !– Check to see if this is a single post or entry shown, and conditionally load first sidebar if it is. — ?php if (bp_is_activity_permalink()) { ? div class=”left-sidebar” ?php locate_template( array( ‘left-sidebar.php’ ), true ) ? /div div class=”center-blog” ?php } ? !– End check to see if […]

Hi. I’m working on customizing and buddypressifying :p a theme for a site I’m working on, and I need to display the sidebars on the page when the users click “View” on a single activity update in the stream. That takes them to that single activity, and no sidebars are loaded in this case. I […]
xrun started the forum topic Adding profile actions to sidebar in the group Creating & Extending: 14 years, 4 months ago

Hi. I’m working on customizing and buddypressifying :p a theme for a site I’m working on, and I need to display the profile actions such as “add friend”, “send message”, “view profile” and so on in a sidebar. It would need to be conditional, so that if the user viewing this page is the owner […]
xrun posted on the forum topic How to add (\'per_page=35\') without messing up \"Load More\" link in the group Creating & Extending: 14 years, 4 months ago

@boonebgorges the Load More-link doesn’t show up at all without the code. I currently have 13 entrys total, but no Load More-link. Edit: @boonebgorges The Load More-link has finally shown up as the list of activities has gotten longer, but still nothing happens when I click it, except adding #more to the url in the address field […]

@boonebgorges the load more link has shown up at the bottom in the activity feed, the list currently has 13 entries. I’d like to cap it at somewhere between 5 and 10, and then extend the list to another 10 each time the load more-link is hit. I have removed the custom php-file temporarily, but while […]
xrun posted on the forum topic Limiting text length of activity update posts in the group Creating & Extending: 14 years, 4 months ago

@nahummadrid Sorry for the late reply.
The copy/paste thing seems not to be an issue, it still limits the length of the entry correctly. I’ve tried styling it a bit, it’s a work in progress. The site is not launched just yet and I’m working under an NDA, but I’ll let you know. 🙂
xrun posted on the forum topic How to add (\'per_page=35\') without messing up \"Load More\" link in the group Creating & Extending: 14 years, 4 months ago

@boonebgorges I did this, and set the limit to 5 while testing. It adds a “load more” link at the bottom of that short list, but when I click it nothing happens, nothing more is shown. What I did was to copy and put this into my bp-custom.php : function my_custom_query_filter( $query_string ) { $query_string .= […]

Yepp, that works like a charm. I’d like the number displayed like a label though, not in a text box. Makes it a bit more consistent with the theme.
xrun posted on the forum topic Displaying user profile in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

Yes @johnjamesjacoby , the avatars show up fine on subdomains and the main blog, so that part is fine. I’d like to have the standard actions for logged in users and for visitors shown below the profile in the sidebar though, haven’t found out that just yet. If you have something on that I’d be very […]

@jeffsayre Hi again Jeff. 🙂
I’m looking at the “Load more” link at the bottom of this page, and wonder how I can get that on my site, for example just showing 10 updates and then a button/link like that, extending the list to 10 more posts each time it is clicked.

  It would be best to ask these questions in the support forums as you will have more of a chance of getting a quicker response. It also puts the replies into an area from which others in the community can benefit.
  
  As to your question, search the bp_default theme and you will see that this functionality is already included. The ”Load More” but…[Read more]
xrun started the topic Limiting text length of activity update posts in the forum Creating & Extending 14 years, 4 months ago

Hello.
I’m looking for a way to limit the length of text users can write in their update posts, for example 250 characters max. I’ve been tweaking some of the template files for other things and I’m thinking maybe I could tweak post-form.php to achieve this. I’m just not sure about the syntax. I would be greatful if someone could point me in the…[Read more]

xrun posted on the forum topic Displaying user profile in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

@johnjamesjacoby So what you are saying is that I’ll probably have less issues if going with a subdirectory structure for the multiblog setup, than I currently do with a multisite subdomain structure? It makes sense as long as the root domain constantly seems to be the variable, so to speak. 😉 Edit: I just backed up […]
xrun posted on the forum topic Displaying user profile in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

@nahummadrid Yes, that is some of what I was looking for. Thing is that it still only shows the standard gravatar, not the uploaded user profile image. That image was uploaded through the BP change avatar dialog on the main site ie. http://site.com and seems not to show up on the users own blog at http://blog.site.com. […]

I hope I’m doing this right. I made the bp-custom.php file, put that code in between ?php wrappers, and placed it in the main theme folder. Didn’t see any changes. I’m no coder though, be gentle. 😉
xrun posted on the forum topic Displaying user profile in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 4 months ago

Very good. I’m digging into it to find how I only display the blog owners gravatar, excluding the rest of the list. Thank you. Another thing: When I list these gravatars and action button links, I get just a gravatar, not the actual profile picture that has been uploaded. I do however get the actual […]

Hi. I need to display the users profile photo or gravatar in the left sidebar on their blogs in a multiuser (WPMU) setup, with links below for adding as firend, send message and so on. If it is the owner of this profile I need to display links to edit profile, inbox, groups and so […]

@jeffsayre Very good. I’m looking forward to trying your plugin as well, crucial functionality in a social network with more users than actual friends.
