BuddyPress.org

Hi, Henry. I have done what you said. The plugins are necessary on my web site. Removed plugins and theme which I do not use. Am using Twitter Bootstrap already. As you can see, BuddyPress and s2members take most of time for loading. The others are less than 30%.
I deactivated BuddyPress and s2members, and my web site turned fast. That means these two plugins make my site slow. Hope the new version would provide better performance.

The plugin author is this guy by the way: he wrote some plugins on wordpress.org including BuddyPress Groups Extras which is how I found him. Slava UA.

The link however has a bbp_ tag in the URL. So I don’t know who the culprit is.

Just in case anyone else needs it

bbpress Version 2.5.3
BuddyPress Version 1.9.2

I just found this on WPMU dev (quite old, 2012) http://premium.wpmudev.org/forums/topic/member-part-of-a-group-in-buddypress

>>Aaron

You can pass bp_group_is_member($group) a group object. I think you can do this:

$group = new BP_Groups_Group( $group_id );
 if (bp_group_is_member($group)) {
   //do this stuff
}

Thanks for your help Aaron. I’ve got it nearly working with your direction and am hoping you can help with the last few details.
The

if (bp_group_is_member($group))

part doesn’t seem to be working so I did a

print_r($groups);

and found this:

BP_Groups_Group Object ( [id] => group-three [creator_id] => [name] => [slug] => [description] => [status] => [enable_forum] => [date_created] => [admins] => [mods] => [total_member_count] => )

Is there a way I can use this to see if the logged in user is a member of “group-three”?

>>Aaron

You need to get the ID number for your group. Maybe from the db.

>>caevan_sachinwalla
BP_Groups_Member::get_group_ids( $user_id );

will give you the group_ids of the groups a user is a member of.

Will this work with the new version of buddypress? how can I make a shortcode with this? thank you a lot 🙂

I also found this on buddypress.org : https://buddypress.org/support/topic/check-if-an-user-is-or-not-a-group_member/

functions.php:

if(groups_is_user_member( bp_loggedin_user_id(), BP_Groups_Group::get_id_from_slug(‘VALUE’))){

...

add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘setup_nav’, 1000 );
}

Can I make a shortcode with this? I would like a shortcode like this:
[group “Group1”] Content [/group]
So how could I change the VALUE in the code with the group selected in the shortcode? (“group1”) so that I can use only one shortcode for all groups I have created.
thanks 🙂

The plugin author say’s it does:

schedule forum topics in any group
schedule site-wide notices to be published
schedule group members unbanning
Everything at a time you specify!

That gives you a unique ability to:

plan the traffic on your site
promote something at a certain time
notify users about any group events/news on time

I was thinking it might be useful in conjunction with BuddyPress Group Email Subscription as a task manager or event scheduler for members- but not sure really. Just thought it was interesting and letting people know.
