@bgrun80 Hello there Ben. There is a much simpler way of using a Date Of Birth check. A simple plug in called “BP Xtra Signup” will do this for you. The plug in also gives you other fields to be added on the sign up page, for example Agree To Terms & Conditions, Password Strength Meter and Username Availability, to name a few. Definitely should check the plug in out, much simpler than writing codex yourself.

@el_terko ,

if I put only code from your last post, it adds “view” button to all activities, which acts 100% like “reply” button (hides/reveals text box).
if additionally I put your function from previous post, then I get “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_RETURN” again

actually, I thought it will be another copy/past work. if it takes lots of time, no need to bother about.

thanks!

This, more than likely, isn’t a BP issue, and BP just piggybacks on WP’s settings. More than likely this is an issue where WP Multisite hasn’t been set up properly, of possibly an issue with your PHP install.

@janismo Yep. I see the problem. Sorry about that. It’s a lot harder to catch your mistakes when you’re not using a dedicated code editor Try this instead.

thanks @el_terko ,

it works, but do you know how to remove reply button for certain activities and change order of meta buttons. At the moment view button stands 4 in a row?

13 BuddyPress template files were transferred to your active WordPress theme during the BP template pack process. Download said 13 BP template files to your computer and start making the following revisions starting with the activity/index.php file:

At the top of the file, replace:
`

`

Save and do the same for the remaining 12 BP template files. Upload to server.

hi @cnorris23 ,

tried to implement your changes, result is (for functions.php):

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_RETURN

Looks like you installed WP in community subfolder. Unfortunately, you haven’t uploaded all the WordPress files and folder required to make it work. Before installing BuddyPress, make sure that your WordPress install is working well
https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/

This *ought* to work fine in BP 1.2.8. If, however, you’re sure it isn’t (and it’s not an odd conflict with another plugin), please report a bug on https://trac.buddypress.org/, using your username & password from this site. Cheers!

Do you want to take your question over to WPMU? You can pay for a response over there.

my-columns will have it’s own style.css (as it is a clone of bp columns which has one) and that is where you change the font sizes and colours etc. It will overwrite the css in buddypress default theme. So you could change the font size by writing
`body {
font-size: 14px;
}`
in the my columns style.css file….

You can quite often see what needs to be changed using developer tools built into ie8 or firebug in firefox (and equivalents for other browsers). Firebug has a neat trick of being able to show changes as you make them….

As you are creating a child of bp default your changes won’t be lost when bp default is upgraded… bp columns is now a different theme and if it is upgraded you would need to compare the changes manually…

I actually used this method with bp columns to create the child of bp default I used here

Nope. Just make the changes @aces gave you, and you’ll be ready to edit how you please You’ll only to change the css in your new my_columns theme.

This would take some code work, because neither bbPress or BuddyPress store this information. You would need to hook into ‘groups_edit_forum_post’ and the use bb_update_postmeta() and bb_get_postmeta() to save/retrieve the information. The following will get you started:

`my_update_forum_post_last_edited( $post_id ) {
global $bp;

do_action( ‘bbpress_init’ );

$post_id = (int) $post_id;

if ( empty( $post_id ) )
return;

bb_update_postmeta( $post_meta, ‘last_edited_date’, bp_core_current_time() );
bb_update_postmeta( $post_meta, ‘last_edited_user’, $bp->loggedin_user->id );
}
add_action( ‘groups_edit_forum_post’, ‘my_update_post_lasted_edited’ );

function my_display_forum_post_last_edited() {
do_action( ‘bbpress_init’ );

$last_edited_user = bb_get_postmeta( bp_get_the_topic_post_id(), ‘last_edited_user’ );
$last_edited_date = bb_get_postmeta( bp_get_the_topic_post_id(), ‘last_edited_date’ );

if ( empty( $last_edited_user ) || empty( $last_edited_date ) )
return;

echo ‘Last edited by ‘ . bp_core_get_user_display_name( $last_edited_user ) . ‘ on ‘ . bp_format_time( $last_edited_date ) . ‘ ‘;
}
add_action( ‘bp_group_forum_post_meta’, ‘my_display_forum_post_last_edited’ );`
