BuddyPress.org

Hi, I had the same issue trying to customize the nav bar. I never did find an id for those pages, but it turns out that the main navs are hard-coded into the header.php file, so I was able to manually edit those. After that comes a wp_list_pages function coded to automatically add any other pages that you make, and those page ids are of course available from the editor.

Hi aaberg,

Try reading this:

Don’t add that , user Stacy – Stacey etc. is a fu..ing spammer giving the same advices everywhere , he only wants to harm your computer , it is a pity that on buddypress.org doesn’t exists banning or something like a forum moderation .

? what plugin is this, but unlikely you can add a map to a WP post or page but you will need to explain a little further.

@juanpons14 Thanks for the code; just started using it on my site. One thing I’ve noticed is that the “Load More” link at the bottom of the results doesn’t work – any thoughts on how to resolve?

@hnla @r-a-y @mercime

The a**hole above has created another user account with a variation of Stacy in the username. Can anything be done to block this schmuck?

Username “Stacy” is a known spammer who gives “advice” that is potentially harmful to your computer. It is not advisable to use the code above.

This plugin should get you what you want:

@Brooker , i’m not really sure how much i’d need to put in really..it is a good idea we both put in to get this plugin made…perhaps if we agree to allow it to be distributed into the community aswell then the plugin will be even cheaper?

You can definitely limit posts by character count as they’re being inserted. Find where the post form is in your template. I’m using this in Buddypress for the activity stream, so I’m not sure if it’s the same for the regular WP postings. But you should be able to work it around a little bit:

`

function limitChars(textarea, limit, infodiv)
{
var text = textarea.value;
var textlength = text.length;
var info = document.getElementById(infodiv);

if(textlength > limit)
{
info.innerHTML = ‘You cannot write more than ‘+limit+’ characters!’;
textarea.value = text.substr(0,limit);
return false;
}
else
{
info.innerHTML = ‘You have ‘+ (limit – textlength) +’ characters left.’;
return true;
}
}

Maximum 500 characters.

`

You can put that code right before and you’ll need to add the onkeyup in like this:</p> <p>`<br /> <textarea>

`

Also of note, if you’re doing an AJAX submit that doesn’t refresh the page, you’ll want to have an onclick action set on the submit button that re-inserts the original HTML of the ‘whatsleft’ span back into it. Otherwise they’ll still see the number of characters they had left when they submitted it, even though the form is blank.

Note: I didn’t write this js, I found it somewhere. Possibly on these forums…but it works

Idem.

I need the P2 theme with buddypress …

Can’t find on the internet, google is not my best friend for this search.

If you’re trying to pull just the avatar from within a loop, this shows how to do that:

http://wpmu.org/how-to-create-a-gallery-of-members-avatars-in-buddypress/

If you’re trying to pull up someone’s avatar simply by ID, use bp_core_fetch_avatar() like this:

`
<?php
global $bp;
$the_avatar = $bp->displayed_user->id; //you’d put in whatever function you’re using to get the ID here, assign it to a variable
echo bp_core_fetch_avatar( ‘item_id=’.$the_avatar );
?>
`

Look up bp_core_fetch_avatar() as there are a lot more options than this. For example, do you want a thumbnail or full sized image? There is a way to specify. Hope that helps!!

@JamieWade either follow up with theme dev for update or change theme.

@uloga You’re welcome. Nice logo uloga

Disable the admin bar / buddybar at the top of every screen, put the code below into your wp-config.php at root of your WP install
`define ( ‘BP_DISABLE_ADMIN_BAR’, true );`

== move the search to the menu bar ==
This can be done by ADDING the following to your style.css — you might need to add/delete some pixels here and there, adjust to taste

“#header {
margin-bottom: 20px;
padding-top: 15px;
}

#header h1 {
bottom: 50px;
width: 100%;
}

#nav {
max-width: auto;
left: 20px;
right: 300px;
}

#header #search-bar {
top: 80px;
width: 300px;
}`

Pay no attention to Stacy. The person gives potentially harmful advice.

What you should try doing is re-installing BuddyPress. Re-upload a fresh copy and try again.

This issue has been brought up in the past.

You can disable the ability to use the activity stream to reply to forum posts by doing the following:

– Login to your WordPress install.
– Navigate to “BuddyPress > General Settings”.
– Under “Disable activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts?”, select “Yes” and save.

There is currently no other solution to sync activity replies to forum topics yet.

@gcortex – Uninstalling the forums component and removing the forums tab from the header are two different things.

If you want to uninstall the forums, login to your WordPress install and navigate to “BuddyPress > Component Setup”. Under “bbPress Forums”, select “Disabled” and then save the settings. Forums should no longer be enabled.

If you want to remove the forums tab from your header, since you’re using the Fishbook theme, you should edit the header of the Fishbook theme.

I know I`m tooting my own horn here , but my BuddyBuilder theme enables you to allow user access to individual BP components and WP pages/posts depending on logged-in/logged-out status. It also provides an optional Site Lockdown feature with/without a Splashpage on the frontpage, and an optional custom redirect page if Site Lockdown is enabled. See the bottom of the right-hand column on this page for all the Privacy features available: http://buddylite.com/buddybuilder-options/
