BuddyPress.org

I have submitted a ticket for this request

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5428#ticket

This will be the case with all themes. BuddyPress content is not included in the default WordPress search. It is a common request for people to ask for a “unified” BuddyPress search but that does not exist out of the box at this moment in time.

To get you in the right direction:

BuddyPress Global/Sitewide Unified search update for BuddyPress 1.5+

The PHP file producing most of the member header stuff (avatar, timestamp, etc) is located at:

/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/member-header.php

You’ll notice it does not output the member displayname however. That is actually just fed into the the_title, which is in your theme template. It’s probably in page.php, or buddypress.php if your theme has that. BuddyPress is feeding content into your page template.

Not sure how to get the_title to display something else off hand, but that should help guide you in the right direction at least.

Yes I know how this works. I am assuming you are referring to the post input on profiles, for adding activity posts. This is a feature and not a bug.

There is some CSS setting the height of the comment box. When you click into it, some Javascript recognizes that you have clicked into the box and then makes the box taller. You can override all of this via CSS, by just setting a fixed height to the box.

Here is the CSS to add:

#buddypress form#whats-new-form textarea {
height: 50px;
}

Instead of 50px, use the height you want it to be. If that does not work, try adding an !important declaration like this:

#buddypress form#whats-new-form textarea {
height: 50px !important;
}

Did you try this plugin?

Thank you @tolusage, it was very helpful, first I installed “buddypress-xprofile-custom-fields-type.1.5.8.4” plugin then “bp-xprofile-wp-user-sync” as you said. Some works now, except the profile page tabs and Signup module. Registration form all ok there are first name and last name boxes there.
1-But on profile page there are about me and Looking for tabs. Ans I see the same data in both tabs. Looking for has the same info as About me. Basically the name, age, height, weight etc all base info appears in looking for tab too except in quotes in Looking for css design.
2-And signup module doesnt show first and last name boxes
As you know on signup box there are these element boxes:
.User name
.Your full name
.Your email
.Desired password
.Confirm password
So I want to get rid off that “Your full name” and put “First name” and “Last name” boxes there. So what file do I need to modify? And how, with what coding?
3-And on admin panel as admin I want to be able to edit user data, at the moment I can edit only the names, email, password. But I want to be able to edit the age, height, weight, country, city thinks like that I have in the main registration form already exist. But on admin panel I cant see them for users to edit. How can I put them in users edit page?
Could you please help out, thanx @tolusage

hmm nevermind the above post after re-reading it i have realised that line 62 is to reflect the name i give the function, but i still cant get it to work, i will explain what steps ive taken please tell me if im doing it wrong…

i have renamed this bit at the top

// begin record products to BP activity stream
function product_record_activity( $post_id, $post, $user_id = false ) {

renamed it from…. function product_record_activity …. to this…… function test_test_test

am i right so far?

next i have renamed this on line 19…

/* Don’t record this if it’s a regular post */
if ( $post->post_type != ‘product’ ) return false;

and where it says ‘product’ i added my custom post type name…… am i still right?

then on line 28 this bit…

$activity_action = sprintf( __( ‘%1$s added or updated the product %2$s, in the store:

i change the added or updated the product and in the store to whatever text i want……. am i still doing it right?

then the last step at the bottom i change line 62 to the name i made earlier which was function test_test_test

so am i still right?

then i upload the buddypress custom php to my plugins folder via my ft p….. i then go and check my site and post something in my custom post and guess what? nothing happens!

now i dont understand what im doing wrong and if this code still works or not? if it doesnt could you please give us your current solution please prometheus? or if im doing something wrong will someone please tell me? because i can get the code @neo-tronic pasted above to work perfectly and show custom post types fine in the activity stream when posting in my custom posts…but the thing is with that code is it does’nt let users comment on the post from the activity stream?

can someone please help me out here ….ty 🙂
