`bp_get_member_profile_data` is only specific to one member. It will not grab all users with a certain xprofile field nor is there a built-in function that will do what you want.

I’d write a custom function to return the user IDs that match a certain field. Then use the `include` parameter in the members loop to do what you want to do.

eg. `if ( bp_has_members( ‘include=’ . my_custom_function() ) ) : `

`my_custom_function()` will have to be written!

If you know your way around WordPress, check out the `wp_bp_xprofile_data` table in your DB and a way to query the WPDB for hints. The `xprofile_get_field_id_from_name()` function will help as well.

This isn’t as straightforward as it seems.

If you know your way around WordPress, here’s one way of doing what you want to achieve:

The favorite count for each activity item is stored in the activity meta table (wp_bp_activity_meta). So you could probably query the DB and grab all the “activity_id” sorted descendingly by the “favorite_count” meta_value.

Then you could use a BP activity loop and use the `include` parameter to add the activity IDs you grabbed from your WPDB query.

Hey Andrew,

You can customize these types of messages by modifying the language file:

@naijaping can you share what caused the overflow and how you resolved this?

@kumaraneks Welcome to BuddyPress.

Many of your requirements are available out-of-the-box with BuddyPress. Some others are met by plugins. Test drive BuddyPress at http://testbp.org/ to see available features.

BP requires a solid WordPress installation – https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/

BP Components like Forums, Groups, etc. – https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-buddypress-components/
and https://codex.buddypress.org/buddypress-site-administration/buddypress-forum/
and https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/group-settings-and-roles/

I needed to do this recently too… this is the technique I used:

$group = groups_get_group( array( ‘group_id’ => $group_id ) );

Found on http://bluemandala.com/buddypress-plugin/127/buddypress-get-group-details-from-group_id/

So in order to get the link to your groups try something like this

global $bp;
$group = groups_get_group( array( ‘group_id’ => $group_id ) );
home_url( $bp->groups->slug . ‘/’ . $group -> slug )

Your theme’s block of code for main navigation is from line 94 to 113 in http://pastebin.com/w0cGZvji
If you are using wp_nav_menu feature, you can easily add links to your BP Component pages in Appearances > Menu area.

also, from @sbrajesh, an alternative to the the Stealth Mode for Super Admins – Put this code in bp-custom.php and None of the site admin activity will be recorded nor will you appear in the Who is Online/ recently active members widget. –

`add_action(“plugins_loaded”,”bpdev_init_sm_mode”);
function bpdev_init_sm_mode(){
if(is_site_admin())
remove_action(“wp_head”,”bp_core_record_activity”); //id SM is on, remove the record activity hook
}`

when admin post on wordpress, post also appeared on BuddyPress activity, as admin’s activity.

how to prevent it? how to hide admin activity?

Try this plugin https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-block-activity-stream-types/

FOR THE TEMPLATE FILES

Open up activity/index.php (one of 13 files transfered by the template pack process to your on demand theme folder)

At top, replace

`

`

Then you do this for the next 12 template files.

But, without friend feature, we cannot get @mention feature. Anyone can help me with this problem?

You’ll have to make a child theme as mercime mentioned four posts up.

But ensuring a certain theme is always used for new blogs? is that the question? If so in wp-config add

`define(‘WP_DEFAULT_THEME’, ‘myCoolTheme’);`

There was also, and still is, a useful plugin for managing various default settings for new blogs, think this works up to 3.0 but not 3.1 but may be wrong:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wpmu-new-blog-defaults/

@wilsontray With WP 3.1, you’ll find the Network Admin goodness when you click on the “Network Admin” link in topright area of your screen.

After uploading child theme of bp-default theme, you need to go to Network Admin > Themes > Themes > Choose the child theme and Network Activate
