THANKS BOTH!

Never mind I figured it out. I modified the code bp_get_group_date_created() so it does get the date. For those who want to do the same or if the group for buddypress want to modify the code to do it the same, here is what I did.

I didn’t want to do lot of code change that way if BP does any updates it would be easy to put the mod back in.

Note: This mod requires you to modifying the BP core make a back up each file before modifying.

1st I created a new function in the bp_core_function.php called bp_core_date_since() and I put it above bp_core_time_since() to keep them together.

function bp_core_date_since($older_date) {



// array of time period chunks

$chunks = array(

array( 60 * 60 * 24 * 365 , __( 'year',   'buddypress' ), __( 'years',   'buddypress' ) ),

array( 60 * 60 * 24 * 30 ,  __( 'month',  'buddypress' ), __( 'months',  'buddypress' ) ),

array( 60 * 60 * 24 * 7,    __( 'week',   'buddypress' ), __( 'weeks',   'buddypress' ) ),

array( 60 * 60 * 24 ,       __( 'day',    'buddypress' ), __( 'days',    'buddypress' ) ),

array( 60 * 60 ,            __( 'hour',   'buddypress' ), __( 'hours',   'buddypress' ) ),

array( 60 ,                 __( 'minute', 'buddypress' ), __( 'minutes', 'buddypress' ) ),

array( 1,                   __( 'second', 'buddypress' ), __( 'seconds', 'buddypress' ) )

);



if ( !empty( $older_date ) && !is_numeric( $older_date ) ) {

$time_chunks = explode( ':', str_replace( ' ', ':', $older_date ) );

$date_chunks = explode( '-', str_replace( ' ', '-', $older_date ) );

$older_date  = gmmktime( (int)$time_chunks[1], (int)$time_chunks[2], (int)$time_chunks[3], (int)$date_chunks[1], (int)$date_chunks[2], (int)$date_chunks[0] );



}

$output = date("F d, Y",$older_date);



return $output;

}

Next I modify the function bp_group_date_created() in the bp_groups_template.php

rem out the return and created a new return

return apply_filters( 'bp_get_group_date_created', bp_core_date_since(strtotime($group->date_created)) );

Now anytime you want to show date created in stead of time since you just replace bp_groups_last_active() to bp_groups_date_created().

So now instead of showing “active since 1 day, 20 hours”. It shows “Created September 8, 2011”

@mercime, yeah im not sure what thats suppose to do. but as soon as i log out of admin, i get a bunch of error messages saying cannot modify header etc.

im still trying to disable the autojoin function. the code define(‘BP_DISABLE_AUTO_GROUP_JOIN’,true);
only disables the autojoin when starting a new topic. the autojoin for post reply is still active.

@boonebgorges, okay Boone, I’ve spent the last 6 hrs 16 minutes on this. I have determined where the issue is occurring but I do not know how to fix it. But first here’s the calibration I eventually got to: I re-installed WordPress and Buddypress (yep, I’m getting faster reinstalling this stuff). I created a new child theme; that is, a new style.css file and a new functions.php file to enqueue the child’s style.css file. Here’s the code for my functions.php file:

`<?php

function bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles() {
// Bump this when changes are made to bust cache
$version = ‘20110804’;

// Default CSS
wp_enqueue_style( ‘bp-default-main’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/_inc/css/default.css’, array(), $version );

wp_enqueue_style( ‘bp-child-style’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’, array(), $version );

// Right to left CSS
if ( is_rtl() )
wp_enqueue_style( ‘bp-default-main-rtl’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/_inc/css/default-rtl.css’, array( ‘bp-default-main’ ), $version );
}

add_action( ‘wp_print_styles’, ‘bp_dtheme_enqueue_styles’ );

?>`

Should be no issue there. With the new stylesheet I started adding back my old code starting at the very top. I didn’t have to go very far at all. It failed at the body selector (at the very bottom of this post); specifically, the @font-face font that the stylesheet loaded. I took it out; I replaced it with verdana or helvetica. No issues. I cycled through all of the @font-face fonts and each one produced the error. Note: The @font-face fonts rendered properly on every page but failed when I clicked on a “dropdown-style” field as described in my first post. Do you have any recommendations? Am I supposed to enqueue the fonts just as I had the stylesheet? If so, how would that be done? Thanks!

Note: I commented out a few declarations in the body selector to help narrow down which declaration could be the issue. And just like Firefox, this works fine in Chrome 13.0.782.220.

@boonebgorges, I cleared the browser cache and got the same results. I reset Safari, other than my passwords, and got the same results. My parent theme is bp-default. I changed from my child theme to bp-default and the dropdown behaves properly. I haven’t changed any core files. So, now I’m a bit stuck. My child theme works in Firefox but not Safari (for the dropdown). Could you point me in some direction that I can troubleshoot where this could be happening?

In my child’s folder, I have the header, footer, and functions php files, the style.css file, an images folder, and an “includes/fonts” folder for the @fontface fonts that style.css loads. I have not edited any of the parent’s files.

Thanks!

That error message was from having the old BP activated. with out it activated I get:
