This page gives you information on filtering the bp_has_members loop:
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-members-loop/
We’ve implemented filtering on profile field values – but did it in 2 passes. It’s fairly complex once you start tying in with the AJAX handling of the members directory.
yea that’s what I was afraid of. already have the hiding field groups done. thank you @RogerCoathup, wish me luck everybody.
phpxref.ftwr.co.uk/buddypress
Thanks @RogerCoathup. Can you share the URL for phpftwr ?
http://phpftwr.com returns page/site not found
Yes @CJKruger — Google is a great friend. Except when you want to get the function to return a Buddypress user’s role. Been looking for that one for a couple hours now.
Thanks for the link.
have a look at https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/the-bp-global/
Apart from that I’d have a look at the member’s theme pages and try work out whats called where.. Also google is your friend, took me to secs to find
`bp_loggedin_user_id()`
No, there isn’t anything on this site.
Your best reference source is the site phpftwr, which will list all the BuddyPress functions for you, and let you drill down to find out what they do.
This was from a plugin I developed for a site, you should find just about everything you need in there, and if not have enough of an understanding to fill in any ones that aren’t covered: http://pastebin.com/xC1jd4vv

next time wait a day, I’d say that’s the average response time, if it’s sooner, be grateful!
Are you being serious? You are asking just 1 hour later, why no-one has responded to your question?
You can’t add conditional menus / menu options via the WordPress menu settings in wp-admin.
If you want conditional menus, and those with PHP driven dynamic links (e.g. changing for the current user), you will have to code them in your header / navigation templates.
@pescholar What were/are you using to register users? Any third party authentication plugins (i.e. Facebook), or just everything built in?
@b1gft there are a couple of simple ways to go about deleting “freshness” from group forums
1. Simplest of the rest -> Just add the following at the bottom of your theme’s style.css file
`span.time-since { display: none !important; }`
or 2. Copy over https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.6/bp-themes/bp-default/forums/forums-loop.php to your themes /forums folder, open it up and delete line #85
or 3. filter bp_the_topic_time_since_last_post in functions.php
Specs
1. WordPress latest
2. Buddypress latest
3. Frisco theme
4. Use bbpress 2.0 for group forums
5. Use “GD bbpress Tools” plugin to have a signature. (its sad that bbpress doesnt have such a basic feature)
For the second time in my entire life, I had a look at PHP and CSS. I hope I can cope with. Till then which is the “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”?
Why nobody is helping me?
I think I found it, Its in bp-activity > bp-activity-template.php > starts line 1187 > bp_activity_time_since’
Thanks @rogercoathup for bp_insert_activity_meta() function hint
*Update*
bp_core_time_since( $activities_template->activity->date_recorded ) date_recorded would be the post date
so it looks like I need to make a new function that uses the regular PHP time function to display the time style
@venkateshmothe @raminjan there are two major BP album/gallery/media plugins which can handle video uploading to server or CDN
1. Free – BuddyPress Media beta version – http://code.google.com/p/buddypress-media/ not for live sites unless you are a developer yourself. Do read minimum requirements and other documentation
– Their stable version a.k.a BuddyPress Album is for images
2. Premium – BP Gallery – upload images, videos, audio as well as embed videos from youtube, vimeo etc. – http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-gallery/
@damler My instructions above should have fixed the “right sidebar dropping down”. What do you mean “as the central column expands”? Got to see it, site URL?
== Which CSS file must I edit, I don’t want to risk messing it up as it’s working great. ==
At the bottom of your easel theme’s style.css file.
@mercime I did do that. I mentioned it in my original post. The Register page works just as it is supposed to when the bp-default theme is activated.
I’m trying to find out what about my set up with the Suffusion theme is causing the conflict. It works with the bp-default theme, but I don’t want to use that theme. I’m wondering where do I go from here to get it working with my Suffusion theme.
@lacemastarson basic troubleshooting -> deactivate Suffusion BP Pack, and change to bp-default theme. See if issue is corrected.
@rogercoathup thanks to your help I just achieved what I wanted 
I’m doing this now and it’s working fine (still will polish it a bit more):
if ( !isset( $bp->groups->current_group ) || !$bp->groups->current_group || $gid != $bp->groups->current_group->id ) {
$group = groups_get_group( array( 'group_id' => $gid ) );
} else {
$group = $bp->groups->current_group;
};
groups_record_activity( array(
'action' => apply_filters( 'groups_activity_new_update_action', sprintf( __( '%1$s publicó una actualización en %2$s', 'buddypress'), bp_core_get_userlink( $user_id ), '<a href="' . bp_get_group_permalink( $group ) . '">' . esc_attr( bp_get_group_name( $group ) ) . '</a>' ) ),
'content' => $content,
'type' => $type,
'item_id' => $gid,
'user_id' => $user_id
)
)
Thanks a lot for your help!!! 
Thanks for the reply @karmatosed
On the Changelog for the Suffusion BuddyPress Pack on the WordPress page it says they’ve added support for BuddyPress 1.6.
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/suffusion-buddypress-pack/changelog/
@rogercoathup thanks for your help, do you have any links for documentation on that function? I’ll try to find out in the meantime If someone else has an example for what I need it would be awesome
@frank13 No problem glad I could be of assistance!
