Hi @mercime,
Thank you for the reply. I have to admit that I didn’t, I just dived in and started trying to match the file layout in my theme! I should have had a better look, so thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
The theme is wp clear and there is a link for it. The forum post is for a slightly older version, but I’m sure it can’t be that different so I will have a go at making those changes to get it working.
Thanks for your help, I will let you know how I get on.
Cheers,
Rob
@djpaul group based forums, so bbPress1?
The default theme with BuddyPress doesn’t have a log in widget. If you’re not using a different theme and you’re referring to the sidebar area, that’s hardcoded into the template. In this case, some extra text with a register link will appear as long as user registrations are enabled on your site.
To check, http://www.agentwp.com/enable-or-disable-user-registration-in-wordpress
@robreg what theme are you using? Did you check at bottom of the page you looked at where we have “template-packed” a number of WP themes https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#template-packed-wordpress-themes
If your WP theme is not listed there, open up your theme’s header.php file, copy all, paste in pastebin.com, click submit and post the generated URL here. Do the same for your theme’s page.php, index.php, sidebar.php and footer.php file. I need to see the whole picture.
@charlietech you have posted about this same issue in a previous post. If I recall well, the issue is either with Suffusion or the Suffusion BP template pack. Did you not contact the theme/plugin author about this issue?
@raphadko aas r-a-y mentioned above, it would require custom development.
Simplest way to add a notice is to create a function where you can add/revise the announcement/s and hook it into `do_action( ‘bp_before_group_forum_content’ );`
OR
copy over https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.6.1/bp-themes/bp-default/groups/single/forum.php into your theme folder wp-content/themes/yourthemefolder/groups/single/forum.php and add/style announcement on line 2 or line 4 of that file. It will show up in all group forums but won’t show up in Forums Directory list of topics.
Hi @meg thanks for the code!! So i assume that this will attach the admin to every private message sent on the site. So the admin would receive a copy of the message sent between members. I’m I correct?
Cheers, Bojan
@modemlooper lol i do objective-c but no php, yet 
i know how long it takes for objective-c and its long. I heard that php was easier. Apparently not LOL. I have a couple things I would like to ask you. 1. Can you make it so they can add friends because there is no button to do it from the friend area and i dont want them to be sent to another page, also create and join/search for a group, make it so all the activity streams have the option to be viewed all at once, and i removed the top bar at the top that send them to the home page and the link to view desktop version. How can i remove the margins that are left behind i cant find it. Again i am taking hits and misses here trying to figure it out. I know it will take you a while to do the above but i would greatly appreciate if you could do it and send it to me when u can, my boss isn’t very nice and i cant figure out how to work php, but i am in the middle of integrating your plugin with push notifications. If you can do this asap tht would be great feel free to send me a beta version to test out i would be more than happy to do so. Feel free to email @ brandongelfand@yahoo.com oh and btw it was the them i was using i switched to the standard buddypress theme and now the activity button is fine.
@lottiejam you have to provide more information
WP/BP versions? What theme are you using? Site URL?
No sorry, that was just a old test snippet that I forgot to delete from the source. Thanks for pointing it out!
@trailmix5 – I seem to be having the same issue. How did you fix the “display name” or “nice name” in BP?
For buddypress If you are admin of site :
– you can delete or edit activities from wp-admin,
– you can remove the comments of members from pages (delete link)
For groups , you can add moderators to mange the groups.
for blog, is same with admin or authors role, you can update.
You use the same version of buddypress in local and your server hosting?
You receive notifcations in server for others notifications type or for all notifications ?
the bp_like_send_notification function is commented ? mybe if your remove the // in line 564 it work
Hi @bojan85,
add this code to your functions.php file
function bp_admin_is_my_profile( $my_profile ){
global $bp;
if( ( $bp->current_component == BP_MESSAGES_SLUG )
&& current_user_can(‘manage_options’) ) return true;
else return $my_profile;
}
add_filter(‘bp_is_my_profile’, ‘bp_admin_is_my_profile’, 1);
but i think is not good idea to read the messages of members 
, try to use anti spam plugins.
@djpaul pardon my ignorance but if i still get the error even when i am in bp-default and i have JS turned off, isn’t it not an ajax thing?
i’ll have one of my team members trace how the whole thing is failing though (that part is not my forte)
That is the full featured list. But there are extensible APIs that you can extend any of these core components. There are hundreds of plugins for BuddyPress.
AGREE, this is very frustrating as most of us come here to search for help and only to find the Search function anything but helpful.
@modemlooper, thank you for the tip. I end up using Google’s search engine, but have completely forgotten to the site:buddypress.org search meta data.
Sorry… I meant to say I’m about to try a standard “BuddyPress” theme…. Jeesh.
i find it strange that there isnt something that could be done, i mean the grop blog for instance works pretty much how i would like this to work, so how come no one seems to be doing this? i love wordpress and buddypress but for this prject i think i’ll have to find an alternative if there is one and i hate doing that.
what do you mean by a buddypress component?
Users can only have a blog if you use Multisite or add them to the blog BP is installed on. Gravity Forms allows users not added to a blog to add posts from the front end. You could then loop out the posts from each user as a blog post attaches id of submitter.
This is just one possible solution. You could also create a BuddyPress component.
@djpaul
Is there a security issue if the the hard coded string included php
Hardcode links as:
`http:// /groupname`
It was built the way it was because of architectural reasons. It’s something we want to change, it’s just as simple as no-one’s done it yet.
