BuddyPress.org

@mercime sorry to revive this topic, I followed your instructions, but buddypress is not correctly aligning yet (eg. http://www.linkin-park.it/newsite/members/linkin-park-italy/activity/). I’m using WordPress 3.4.1, Buddypress 1.5.6 and InStyle Theme 2.7. I’ve attached some code from my theme. Let me know if you can help me out, thanks in advance!

Have you used the template pack for BuddyPress? You need to either use that or make your theme a child theme of BuddyPress default. This is because the theme you are using is not a BuddyPress compatible theme from what I can see.

Got it to work withe

function remove_xprofile_links() {
remove_filter( ‘bp_get_the_profile_field_value’, ‘xprofile_filter_link_profile_data’, 9, 2 );
}
add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘remove_xprofile_links’ );

added it to my bp-custom.php file.

Thanks guys.

I’m not getting the error on testing. The blank page is the beginning for share browser bookmarklet.

I added this

<?php
// hacks and mods will go here

remove_filter( ‘bp_get_the_profile_field_value’, ‘xprofile_filter_link_profile_data’, 9 );

?>

did not work in wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php

BuddyPress doesn’t use custom post types, and doesn’t have an XML-RPC API yet (well, not that I’m aware of).

I guess your first stage is to implement your own XML-RPC interface for the specific BuddyPress functions you want to hook into.

ditto

though i did manage to activate it on a local site and it is a gem. tidier icons. digg + pin interest. thanks

Also notification to update pages —> sharebuddy. but when you do that the page,at the moment, is entirely blank. no header or anything.

no complaints – just feedback for a great plugin.

Have this problem also.

using;
wordpress 3.4.1
buddypress 1.5.6

sorry for this self promo, maybe you can try this plugin : https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-checkins/, it adds a map in member / friends view with the latest position of the friends of the user… I know it’s not replying to your need at 100%. But i agree with Hugo, dealing with all members on a map is a huge challenge.

This article gives some decent ideas (and some less so!):

Other than that – there are lots of prior discussions on buddypress.org – if you try Google, it will find some pages on this site.

Keep yollering about how it would be nice to have regular forums with search on here @jjj

@valuser – that plugin is nearly 3 years old. Given the hooks, priorities have changed – I doubt it works anymore.

The link I’ve given provides a solution to the problem, with just one line that needs adding to bp-custom.php

for #2 https://buddypress.org/community/groups/custom-profile-filters-for-buddypress/ MIGHT offer some relief.

@all ever tried doing global maps and dealing with google map api, I’ts not simple, I worked on a custom site app that had one to display properties from a side column list, getting those map markers and overlays working effectively was not easy. If traveljunkie has coded this up then I would use that, I made the deliberate decision not to attempt a global map as it’s far too much work for bp-user-profile-map a plugin I released for no profit.

Please post your issues as separate topics – it helps finding them, solving them.

#2 is a well known UX problem with BuddyPress – https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/certain-buddypress-member-profile-data-getting-hyperlinked/

For #1, you’ll either have to write some PHP to conditionally exclude the name field, or simply hide it using CSS

@traveljunkie sells a full featured plugin to do this – check it out here:

I’m with you @fisheyecom

Would be super cool to have a map in each group showing locations of members, hopefully by using miniature profile pictures as map-markers. Clicking on the marker should show the name, profile photo, and maybe 1-2 other pertinent details, and clicking on name should take to member profile.

thanks mate worked perfectly.
