Re: Organizing/categorizing many groups with group tags plugin
OK, I’ve worked out some of the issues, and have something to share:
the eventual url will be here: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-tags/
but for now it is : http://bluemandala.com/bp-group-tags.zip
any and all feedback is appreciated.
Plugin Description:
This plugin will allow you assign tags to groups. You can then show a clickable tag cloud above the group listings or use the Group Tags widget.
Known Issues:
This plugin does not integrate with the ajax group Search, Order By or My Groups functionality.
Everything works fine, however the url from the group tag remains in the browser.
I have no idea how this works with paginated groups.
TODO: look into making this work with ajax calls to fix url display
ensure the do_action hook is added to default theme *request has been made*
show common tags in the tag adding interface
create links for tags when displayed under group description
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
For this plugin to work, you need to edit /bp-themes/bp-default/groups/groups-loop.php in the buddypress folder
on the 6th line, right below this code:
<?php if ( bp_has_groups( bp_dtheme_ajax_querystring( ‘groups’ ) ) ) : ?>
ADD this line:
<?php do_action( ‘bp_after_groups_query’ ) ?>
If it is already there, then ignore this note.
Future versions of the buddypress default theme hopefully will include this line.
