Hi, Could you check Settings -> BuddyPress -> Pages tab, what page do you have Activate set to, if you open that page that is linked in a browser that is not logged in does it load correctly? It should show a box to enter the key manually when visited directly I believe.

Looks like we both followed the same article: https://codex.buddypress.org/plugindev/how-to-edit-group-meta-tutorial/

I was able to resolve the issue you were having by modifying the custom_field function a bit, so it becomes like this:

function custom_field($meta_key='') {
        $value = groups_get_groupmeta( bp_get_group_id(), $meta_key);
        if ($value) {
            return $value;
        }

        $bp   = buddypress();
        if ($bp->groups->current_group) {
            $group_id = $bp->groups->current_group->id;
            return groups_get_groupmeta($group_id, $meta_key, TRUE);
        }
        return FALSE;
}

It looks like the meta value’s already saved after the first step, and your group already has an ID; so it’s just a question of retrieving that. bp_get_group_id() somehow does not do the job for I don’t know what reason (maybe the group is not yet visible, or the cache has not been updated yet).

Thanks really helpful.

Hey, BuddyPress doesn’t have events built-in so I’m guessing you are using an addon to add this feature? You’d probably need to ask on their support how to do this, most event addons I’ve used easily allow changing of permissions.

I also want the same thing.

Hi, am logged in but i can’t see how to create a new topic.
Just want to raise my consent over the fact there may be a bug with the recent update. when i head over to my website dashboard-settings-BuddyPress-pages, all the pages assigned there seem to redirect back to my homepage. unless i set the directories to “none” which makes the plugin unusable.

Kindly assist if you can.

Thanks

If you visit ozzyspals.com/members/wedzzeditor as the other user it should show the buttons.

If not double check within Dashboard -> Settings -> BuddyPress that you have the required Components selected.

If the above doesn’t work I’m afraid I’m stumped and hopefully someone else will be able to help.

I tried this but it limited my ability to toggle between activity streams. For example when I went from “all members” to “friends” and the activity feed didn’t load. I have to refresh the page to get it to load.

I have found the solution to this problem. Just add this CSS to your styles:

.buddypress .content div.activity {
    display: block !important;
}
