Hopefully the following link might help? https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/add-a-welcome-message-to-admin-bar-instead-of-website-name/#post-87017 ?

I use a version of it though the admin menu bar is only seen by those logged in….

This code works on my WP 3.0.4 Multisite, BP 1.2.7 install, but unfortunately it breaks my chat function. I use cometchat for buddypress, and as soon as applying this code in bp-custom.php in the plugins folder, cometchat breaks (does not show up at all). Any idea what can be causing this?

If you installed bbPress forums via BuddyPress > Forums Setup – https://codex.buddypress.org/buddypress-site-administration/buddypress-forum/

Or, https://codex.buddypress.org/buddypress-site-administration/using-an-existing-bbpress-installation/

Gotta love GF.
Use the code below in your WP or BP theme functions.php file to tie a specific form to a custom post type.
Remember to set the form[“id”] to the id of the GF in the backend and then the slug of the CPT in the appropriate place below and that form will be tied to add posts to the CPT.

`
add_filter(“gform_post_data”, “update_post_type”, 10, 2);
function update_post_type($post_data, $form){

if($form[“id”] == ‘1’){
$post_data[“post_type”] = “custom-post-type”;
}
return $post_data;
}
`

Hi! Bit of an old thread I know, but is there still no way to do this other than:

a) hacking the core with the diff @simonwheatley kindly posted
b) Hiding the button in the template, which technically leaves the functionality in place

Just had a look at the trunk and there still doesn’t seem to be anything there like this. Would have thought a lot of people would be after it!

Not sure, but it is probably done in the Buddypress menu.
Buddypress – General Settings – Disable activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts? YES
and/or
Buddypress – Component Setup – Activity Streams: Allow users to post activity updates and track all activity across the entire site. NO

Well you could replace
`
case “Who’s Online Avatars”:
return $translations->translate( “Who’s Online…” );
break;
`
for
`
case “Join Group”:
return $translations->translate( “Follow” );
break;
`
in the example in the link
but as join appears quite a lot of times in buddypress, in different combinations, it might be better just to add your own language file….

hi @henry0,
i am also new to buddypress and trying to do some reading. have you tried using author page template (author.php)? like the one mentioned here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Author_Templates

i was not able to test it right now due to some access restrictions. but if anyone could confirm this it will greatly appreacited (i need it also)

The BP Bad Word Filter plugin is available here: http://wordpress.matemedia.com/buddypress-plugins/

Hello, I am new in the site. It took me a while but I found a solution for the autocomplete feature, but the problem is that it can only be fixed changing a Buddypress core file, and that’s not the way. Anyway here is how I did it (found the code in this forum, don’t remember where exactly, so I am not the author of the code I am sharing, sorry about that). In the file “wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-messages/bp-messages-cssjs.php”:

Line 37, the original code: ( Comment it )

`var acfb =
jQuery(“ul.first”).autoCompletefb({urlLookup:’root_domain . str_replace( ‘index.php’, ‘wp-load.php’, $_SERVER ) ?>’});`

Paste this code right after the previous line:

`var acfb = jQuery(“ul.first”).autoCompletefb(
{urlLookup:’root_domain . ‘/wp-load.php’; ?>’}
);`

It works for me with the latest version of Buddypress (1.2.7) and with the Friends feature enabled. My question is if it would be possible to include this in the latest Buddypress version so the autocomplete feature works out-of-the-box. I thought it didn’t work for me because I was using a custom buddy theme, but I tested it on a clean install with the default theme and it is broken when you first install it. I think that this way it would work from scratch. Probably you have been already told about this, sorry If I am being repetitive, and thank you for reading !

I hope you’ve also read up on creating and using a child-theme rather than editing bp-default. Makes updating BP a lot easier!

Something like that is done by the admin bar:

/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-adminbar.php
around line 171

Is that what you mean?

Have you logged out?
If you click on that link (your no. 2) it will send you to homepage if logged in….

And you have installed the Suffusion BP template pack plugin and gone through that process, checked permalink settings, or at least revisted the permalink page to force a refresh; any other issues with links?
