Member1. Also latest version of WP, and BP. WordPress is installed in a sub directory.
Everything was just installed today. So latest version on everything.
No other plugins other than bbPress and Buddy Press installed.
Using the standard Buddy Press theme. I notice that you can’t really create separate forum in the bbPress version installed in BuddyPress. Is the internal version limited in someway or something???
Please help, and thanks in advance.September 10, 2011 at 11:02 pm #119850MemberAlso, I don’t really like the bbPress forums at all. It seems very very limited and you can’t make forum categories with it. Is there anyway to get the BuddyPress forums working with phpbb? I tried the gateway plugin, but it corrupted my database and I couldn’t find the correct files to use with it.

MemberI’m glad to help! I’m sure some of my ideas are not the cleanest way to solve the problems, but they seem to work. And as it seems difficult to get answers to questions here sometimes, I try to help where I can.
Let me know how things go after you get a chance to try them out. Ps. the code I pointed to in that link, if it is not clear- I used it to create an ‘if’ statement.
Peace.

KeymasterThe functions are not new – the whole point of a framework like BuddyPress, from the beginning, has been so that you *don’t* have to reinvent the wheel
I think that for your purposes you can use `xprofile_get_field_data()`. See bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-functions.php.
September 10, 2011 at 4:56 pm #119844Memberthanks @boonebgorges !
WOW searching through all these new functions will be time consuming at first, but I’m sure will make things better over the long term. are these new to BP 1.5?
I’m so used to just using SQL to solve my problems these seems way complicated… (above my head and slightly to the left) So let’s say I just want to check for the whether a record exists, is it suggested that these BP functions should be used for all database communication?
for example… this checks for the existence of the field in the first place
`
$sql4 = “SELECT *
FROM wp_bp_xprofile_data XP
WHERE XP.user_id = $iUserID”;
$acheck_for_user_xprofile = $wpdb->get_col( $wpdb->prepare($sql4));
if ($acheck_for_user_xprofile) {
$check_for_user_xprofile_answer = “yes“;
} else {
$check_for_user_xprofile_answer = “no”;
}
`September 10, 2011 at 11:22 am #119841KeymasterThat’s what `xprofile_set_field_data()` is for.
`xprofile_set_field_data( 1, $iallusersUserID, $nicename );`
No need to use $wpdb!

Memberhum… do you know how to follow @r-a-y about this plugin? is he working on this already?
thank you allSeptember 10, 2011 at 9:16 am #119839In reply to: adding group fields

Participant@qrahaman yes , group fields are already working for us on that link and I got from @brajesh http://www.buddydev.com even better solution for group custom fields (maybe non paid members can’t see it) :
http://buddydev.com/forums/topic/displaying-group-custom-fields-in-group-headerphp
I didn’t have a time till now to check it out , but as soon as possible I can I will check it out and if I understood it well it should help us to display whatever we wish if group value is EMPTY.and as far as I know @slaffik have said that his plugin in future versions will work exactly as you’ve said (at least I wish it will work like that – you’ve perfectly described my wish how slaffik’s plugin should work.)

MemberHey @embergermedia,
As usual your advise dose not disappoint! I’m in the process of moving and also the creation of s second business site so as soon as I can I’ll give you an update on how it all works out! Ill also continue to mull over your problem and see if I can help at all! Talk to you soon!September 10, 2011 at 12:34 am #119829MemberThanks both for the feedback!… looking into xprofile_insert_field() in bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-functions.php. This appears to be the function for adding a new profile field to the BP system.
`function xprofile_insert_field( $args = ” ) {
global $bp;extract( $args );
/**
* Possible parameters (pass as assoc array):
* ‘field_id’
* ‘field_group_id’
* ‘parent_id’
* ‘type’
* ‘name’
* ‘description’
* ‘is_required’
* ‘can_delete’
* ‘field_order’
* ‘order_by’
* ‘is_default_option’
* ‘option_order’
*/// Check we have the minimum details
if ( !$field_group_id )
return false;// Check this is a valid field type
if ( !in_array( $type, (array) $bp->profile->field_types ) )
return false;// Instantiate a new field object
if ( $field_id )
$field = new BP_XProfile_Field( $field_id );
else
$field = new BP_XProfile_Field;$field->group_id = $field_group_id;
if ( !empty( $parent_id ) )
$field->parent_id = $parent_id;if ( !empty( $type ) )
$field->type = $type;if ( !empty( $name ) )
$field->name = $name;if ( !empty( $description ) )
$field->description = $description;if ( !empty( $is_required ) )
$field->is_required = $is_required;if ( !empty( $can_delete ) )
$field->can_delete = $can_delete;if ( !empty( $field_order ) )
$field->field_order = $field_order;if ( !empty( $order_by ) )
$field->order_by = $order_by;if ( !empty( $is_default_option ) )
$field->is_default_option = $is_default_option;if ( !empty( $option_order ) )
$field->option_order = $option_order;return $field->save();
}
`
All I really need to do is add a little record into the existing “wp_bp_xprofile_data” tableThis below code works however it’s definately not Open source friendly or BP friendly
`
// grab this users nicename
$user = get_userdata( $iallusersUserID );
$nicename = $user->user_nicename;
$last_udpated = date(‘Y-m-d H:i:s’);// create a new record in bp_xprofile_data and add the nicename
$wpdb->insert(
‘wp_bp_xprofile_data’,
array(
‘field_id’ => 1,
‘user_id’ => $iallusersUserID,
‘value’ => $nicename,
‘last_updated’ => $last_udpated
),
array(
‘%d’,
‘%d’,
‘%s’,
‘%s’
)
);
`Any thoughts? Thanks again!

KeymasterWe fixed this in BuddyPress 1.5
September 9, 2011 at 11:35 pm #119827Keymaster+1 to using the `xprofile_` functions if you can.

Participant@4ella, I believe this is post to which you are referring (near the bottom of the page): https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/how-to-add-fields-to-group-creation-with-group-extension-api-please-read/?topic_page=4&num=15
It’s from modemlooper. And it’s a follow-on to modemlooper/jorges plugin. One has to go into the php file to add/modify fields but it solves the need. Plus, whatever html tags have been placed in the php file to organize the fields, one can just add IDs/Classes and style them in your child theme’s style.css. No need for inline styling.
With that being said, @slaffik will your update allow for Group types and/or categories? For example, for a specific group type, the admin could create/apply a form containing fields specific to that Group type. With the application of categories/sub-categories, the user would be able to filter across an exhaustive list of Groups. I am looking forward to trying your updated plugin.

ModeratorTry using this http://github.com/modemlooper/buddypress-group-fields
You have to edit the code your self to add fields. i’m going to develop it so it matched the profile fields editor that comes in default BP.

MemberHey @christophg
Sorry, I’ve been travelling a lot or work and haven’t had enough time to come back here!! Thanks for the info on Profile manager. I was half way through with my solution when I stumbled upon hers. It didn’t work for me, so I contacted her. After several iterations of the plugin it still didn’t work for me. I suspect there may be a plugin conflict, however, I have limited plugins running on my installation, and my community needs every one of them. So I continued to make refine the idea I sent to you.
As for your question regarding using S2 to control who gets one of your pages created, I am not sure if it is possible. As it stands, S2’s hooks and filters only allow you to keep content sequestered depending on user level.
One idea for you though is to allow a page to be created for every one who registers. Then, display the contents of that page as an iFrame on each users member profile page. Create a private group for the members who should have a rating. Then wrap the iframe in code that restricts the display of the iframe to only displayed members of that group. I do this very thing for my “Brands”.
I believe this is the code I used to show only on my brands member pages:
Let me know if you need more help!

MemberHOLY SMOKES! i figured it out, the bp-custom.php file mustve been corrupted because i deleted and simply tried to replace the code. and now it works!!!
thanks for all the help @mercime!!!!
September 9, 2011 at 10:27 pm #119820In reply to: removing group auto join
Member@mercime, but it doesnt change the fact that my members are still autojoining the group when they reply to a post. the original code only disables the autojoin when starting a new topic.

InactiveIf you want to add a record, then there are API functions to do that for you for the most part. `xprofile_insert_field()` is one such function. There’s more in bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-functions.php.
If you really do need to query the database directly, then you can find the table names within the $bp global, e.g. `$bp->groups->table_name` for the main groups table.
If there are API functions, then you should use these. Only query directly if you can’t find a function to do the heavy lifting for you.
September 9, 2011 at 8:20 pm #119817KeymasterComponents register their table names themselves. See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-loader.php#L85
In the case of xprofile, they are
`$bp->profile->table_name_data
$bp->profile->table_name_fields`
and so on.You may find it helpful to look at https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-classes.php to see how BP itself references these tables. Likewise for the other components.
September 9, 2011 at 7:49 pm #119816MemberSomething like this
`
$sql = “SELECT *
FROM wp_bp_xprofile_data XP
WHERE XP.user_id = $iallusersUserID”;
$xprofile = $wpdb->get_col( $wpdb->prepare($sql));
`should probably more like this
`
$sql = “SELECT *
FROM $wpdb->x_profile XP
WHERE XP.user_id = $iallusersUserID”;
$xprofile = $wpdb->get_col( $wpdb->prepare($sql));
`Maybe this whole style of calling a custom SQL query is way of track? any suggestions?

MemberAltough User A (ID:21) does show up in the table “wp_bp_xprofile_data”
It would be great if there was some help in bp_has_members
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-members-loop/
To reference these orphaned users with a state…. like “inactive”September 9, 2011 at 6:13 pm #119811In reply to: Activating existing users
MemberOn this same topic…..In the members directory in BP 1.5 user are displayed based on more criteria then mentioned by the discussion above.
User A (ID: 21) is showing up in the members directory but does NOT appear in the buddypress activity tables
`
$sql2 = “SELECT *
FROM wp_bp_activity activity
WHERE activity.user_id = $iUserID”;
`OR the user_meta table
`
$sql3 = “SELECT *
FROM wp_usermeta UM
WHERE UM.user_id = $iUserID
AND UM.meta_key LIKE ‘last_activity'”;`
Any thoughts on what’s making these members appear in the directory?

Keymaster@simon_said – Would you mind posting a bug ticket on trac.buddypress.org, with steps to reproduce? Thanks!
