That helped a lot, I’ve now got it filtering for the users activity on just their profile page. So we’re halfway there. Using your links I’m to the point where I have this code:

function my_filter_after_has_activities_parse_args( $r ) {
        $r['per_page'] = 10;
        if (bp_is_my_profile()) {
        $r['per_page'] = 3;
        $r['scope'] = "just-me";
        } else if (bp_is_user_profile()) {
        $r['per_page'] = 3;
        //$r['scope'] = "just-me"; - I'll work out the code for just-them after I get the function calling
        }
        
        return $r;
    }
    add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'my_filter_after_has_activities_parse_args' );

When I run this code on a normal users profile I get nothing changed (the final bp_is_user_profile() doesn’t fire). I’m on the site.com/members/user page and it’s the ‘home.php’ template that’s calling all of this so I’m at a loss as to why I’m getting no joy.

Got it sorted.

I set up a new search-form.php in my child theme:

<div class="<?php bp_nouveau_search_container_class(); ?> bp-search" data-bp-search="<?php bp_nouveau_search_object_data_attr() ;?>">
<form action="" method="get" class="bp-dir-search-form" id="<?php bp_nouveau_search_selector_id( 'search-form' ); ?>">
<select onchange="this.form.submit()" id="<?php bp_nouveau_search_selector_id( 'search' ); ?>" name="<?php bp_nouveau_search_selector_name(); ?>">
		  <option value="" disabled selected>Filter by Industry</option>
		  <option value="">All</option>
  <?php  $result = $wpdb->get_results ( "SELECT * FROM wp_bp_xprofile_fields WHERE id='2'" );
  foreach ( $result as $print );
  $options = $wpdb->get_results ( "SELECT * FROM wp_bp_xprofile_fields WHERE parent_id='$print->id'" );
      foreach ( $options as $option )   { ;?>
    	
    <option class="<?php echo $option->name;?>" name ="field_<?php echo $print->id;?>_match_any[]"value="<?php echo $option->name;?>"><?php echo $option->name;?></option>
          <?php } ;?> 
		</select>
</form>
</div>

And then Ravi over at BuddyDev figured out how to change what the search applies to:

// Activity Search by Category

function buddydev_filter_activities_query_args( $r ) {

	$searched_category = empty( $r[ 'search_terms' ] ) ? false : $r[ 'search_terms' ];

	if ( ! $searched_category ) {
		return $r;
	}

	$r['search_terms'] = false;

	if ( empty( $r['meta_query'] ) ) {
		$r['meta_query'] = array(
			array(
				'key'     => 'bpcat',
				'value'   => $searched_category,
			)
		);
	} else {
		array_push( $r['meta_query'], array(
			'key'     => 'bpcat',
			'value'   => $searched_category,
		) );
	}

	return $r;
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'buddydev_filter_activities_query_args' );

Dear,

I tried but it didn’t work. I made a bp-custom.php map in: wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php –> In the map bp-custom.php i placed a file bp-custom.php
I used notedpadd ++ as a editor to place the code you give me and copied it to my server. Once installed, i can’t enter my site. It gives an error:
Warning: require …
Fatal error: require(): Failed opening .. class-buddypress.php on line 226

This looks strange, cause the code filled in notepadd ++ goes only to line 11.

I filled it in as:
<?php
function bp_activities_user_friends_scope( $retval ) {

if ( bp_is_activity_directory() ) {
$retval[‘scope’] = ‘friends’;
}

return $retval;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_after_has_activities_parse_args’, ‘bp_activities_user_friends_scope’ );
?>

did I do something wrong?

Big thank for youre help

r-a-y,

This is blather to try to trick the ‘Duplicate reply detected’ nonsense.

Thanks for the reply – seem like the right approach, but… Following is my code:

function ec_filter_activity( $activity_object ) {
  $activity_object['action'] = array( 'item1', 'item2');
  return $activity_object;
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'ec_filter_activity');

When I load the activity feed, I get this warning (in the debug.log file):

PHP Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, function 'ec_filter_activity' not found or invalid function name in /var/www/html/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php on line 286

I do not understand why this error is appearing – can you offer some guidance?

p.s. The site is the MVP for the company. If there is decent adoption, the next release will be a custom app, so moving the code into a plugin is not really needed.

Hi,
I feel that this function does not work anymore with the latest version of buddypress. If I disable it, => all works
I activate it by trying several solutions and nothing else works !!

add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'activites_affiche_infos' );
function activites_affiche_infos( $retval ) {
 //  if ( bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) {
   $retval['action'] = array(        
    'activity_comment',
    'activity_update',
    //'created_group',
    //'friendship_created',
    'joined_group',
    'last_activity',
    //'new_avatar',
    'new_blog_comment',
    'new_blog_post',
    //'new_member',
    'updated_profile'        
    );
	return $retval;	
//	}
}

Hello

[17-Feb-2018 11:37:41 UTC] PHP Warning: Illegal offset type in /home…./wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-activity/bp-activity-functions.php on line 734

I found where the error came from:

add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'activites_affiche_infos' );
function activites_affiche_infos( $retval ) {
   $retval['action'] = array(        
   'activity_comment',
	'activity_update',
	'created_group',
	'friendship_created', //nouv relation entre membre
	'joined_group',
	'last_activity',
	'new_avatar',
	'new_blog_comment',
   'new_blog_post',
	//'new_member',
	'updated_profile',
	'rtmedia_update' // ajout important sinon on perd l'affichage des médiaq                
    ); 
    return $retval;
}

IF you can tell me the mistake !?

For the other, it’s the mailster plugin

Hi Henry,

Thanks for the reply,

I’m not a programmer I have basic programming knowledge at best. I’ve tried pasting

// Fetch only the last five entries for all activity loops
function my_bp_activities_per_page_5( $retval ) {
    $retval['per_page'] = 5;
 
    return $retval;
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'my_bp_activities_per_page_5' );

at the top of my current code and it is still the same showing an fatal error message and allowing me to view the admins profile.

Have I put the code in the wrong place, or is it even possible for me to comprehend what I need to do without knowing php?

Thanks

I had to disable activity update comments from displaying as their own items entirely to fix this, but it looks like doing so did. I used the code from this thread.

function my_bp_activities_include_activity_types( $retval ) {
// only allow the following activity types to be shown
    $retval['action'] = array(
     //   'activity_update',
        'activity_comment',
        'new_blog_post',
        'new_blog_comment',
        'friendship_created',
        'created_group',
    );
 
    return $retval;
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'my_bp_activities_include_activity_types' );

Weird issue all around.

@danbp thanks for your response I’ve used the below code as per the suggested link but still it dosen’t work.

function my_bp_activities_per_page_5_on_user_activity( $retval ) {
    // only fetch the last five entries if we're on a user's activity page
    if ( bp_is_user_activity() ) {
	$retval['action'] = 'bbp_reply_create, bbp_topic_create, activity_update';
	$retval['object'] = 'profile, status';
 } 
    return $retval;
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activities_parse_args', 'my_bp_activities_per_page_5_on_user_activity' );

Topic is resolved. Comments were being restricted in them folders function.php. I added check for bp_is_group_single. Current code:

//Restrict access to BP to logged-in users only
function my_filter_activity( $loop ) {

// added 10/19/16 D.T. – show all comments in single group home page
if ( !bp_is_group_home() )
$loop[‘scope’] = ‘just-me,friends’;

return $loop;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_after_has_activities_parse_args’, ‘my_filter_activity’ );

Thanks all for the quick replies. I don’t mean to ignore all of your helpful questions and suggestions, but those may not be needed anymore.

After getting a chance to speak with a colleague who’s been out of the office for a while, I was able to identify the problem here. A function from a custom plugin was filtering both the bp_before_has_activities_parse_args and bp_after_has_activities_parse_args filters, and the specific problem was that it was setting $args['include'] to an empty string. This removed the comment ID that was supposed to be part of the query, and resulted in the wrong query. We don’t know why it was doing this in the first place, but it has been corrected and the infinite loop has been fixed.

Regardless, it may be beneficial to include some checking in this code to prevent the possibility of an infinite loop even for edge cases like this.
