Hi,
I’m a complete novice at Buddypress and I have spent a long time on these forums and the codex pages trying to figure out if this is possible…

(excuse me if this has been repeated elsewhere – please point me in the right direction if it has)

I’m trying to create a buddypress network for 2 different types of users (volunteers and hosts), each with their own different xprofile fields. I would only like the volunteers to view and contact the hosts and the hosts to view and contact the volunteers.
I understand there is a great plugin to help part way with this ( buddypress user account type pro).
This plugin can display different user types (in a filtered member’s directory) in a menu but It cannot hide the volunteer’s member’s directory from a logged-in volunteer and vice versa for the host.

Does anyone have any other ideas or plugins that may be able to help? Is it possible to set up two different buddypress networks on two different installations / multi-network but be able to view each other’s profiles and message each other once logged in?

I have very limited knowledge of php. So if it’s a case of changing something here, please can someone point me in the right direction.

Thank you for your help.

Hello,

I am wondering if there is a way to format how a checkbox profile field displays in the profile.

Ex:

What are your favorite sports?
Checkbox options of Hockey, Golf, Soccer, Football and Basketball.

User selects Hockey, Golf and Football.

Code I have right now is as follows:

<?php
$myfield = xprofile_get_field_data( 'Favorite Sports', $user_id_from_email, $multi_format = 'comma' );
if ( empty ( $myfield) ):
?>
<?php else: ?>
<p><b>Favorite Sports:</b> <?php echo $myfield; ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

Way it displays is:

Favorite Sports: Hockey, Golf, Football

Is it possible to have it display the results vertically?

Hockey
Golf
Football

Is this at all possible or am I dreaming lol?

Hello Buddypress,

I am currently developping a custom theme and I’m running into some problem.

When I run the funciton to check an activation key:
bp_core_activate_signup($KEY)

It doesn’t return the WP_Error class object but it’s redirecting the user and setting a cookie saying that the key is incorrect.

In the function it does say:

if ( empty( $user_id ) )
        {
            return new WP_Error( 'invalid_key', __( 'Invalid activation key', 'buddypress' ) );
        }

if I use die() infront of the return, it just dies. So it does pass the if statement.

Why is it when a WP_Error class object is being created, the browser redirects the user?

I just want the object.

I’ve read multiple threads all saying different things in order to turn off default BP registration. Is it possible to just include a checkbox in BP Settings that would turn off BP registration allowing us to use a different plugin?

I’ve tried functions.php, bp-config.php with
remove_action( ‘init’, ‘bp_core_wpsignup_redirect’ );
remove_action( ‘wp’, ‘bp_core_wpsignup_redirect’ );
remove_action( ‘wp’, ‘bp_core_screen_signup’, 3 )

And nothing seems to work. Just a simple checkbox at Setting|BuddyPress|Settings would work wonders!

Thanks,
Mark Jensen
