BuddyPress.org

So after a quick schooling in buddypress and how this all works I managed to piece together the following code that does exactly what I needed to do:

<?php
function job_listing_activity_args() {
	if ( ! bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) {
		return;
	}
	add_post_type_support( 'job_listing', 'buddypress-activity' );

	bp_activity_set_post_type_tracking_args( 'job_listing', array(
		'component_id'             => 'activity',
		'action_id'                => 'new_job_listing',
        	'bp_activity_admin_filter' => __( 'Published a new Report', 'text-domain' ),
        	'bp_activity_front_filter' => __( 'Reports', 'text-domain' ),
        	'contexts'                 => array( 'activity', 'member' ),
        	'activity_comment'         => true,
        	'bp_activity_new_post'     => __( '%1$s posted a new Report: <a href="%2$s">[Job]</a> aproximately', 'text-domain' ),
        	'bp_activity_new_post_ms'  => __( '%1$s posted a new Report: <a href="%2$s">[Job]</a>, on the site %3$s', 'text-domain' ),
        	'position'                 => 100,
        	'bp_activity_new_comment'  => __( '%1$s posted a new Follow up on: <a href="%2$s">[Job]</a> aproximately', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        	'bp_activity_comments_admin_filter' => __( 'Added Follow Up', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        	'bp_activity_comments_front_filter' => __( 'Follow Ups', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        	'bp_activity_new_comment_ms'        => __( '%1$s added follow up to this <a href="%2$s">Incident</a>, on the site %3$s', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        	'comment_action_id'                 => 'new_job_listing_comment',
    	) );
}
add_action( 'init', 'job_listing_activity_args' );
function job_listing_include_post_type_title( $action, $activity ) {
	if ( empty( $activity->id ) ) {
		return $action;
	}
	if ( 'new_job_listing' != $activity->type ) {
		return $action;
	}
	
	
	preg_match_all( '/<a.*?>([^>]*)<\/a>/', $action, $matches );
	if ( empty( $matches[1][1] ) || '[Job]' != $matches[1][1] ) {
		return $action;
	}
	$post_type_title = bp_activity_get_meta( $activity->id, 'post_title' );
	if ( empty( $post_type_title ) ) {
		switch_to_blog( $activity->item_id );
		$post_type_title = get_post_field( 'post_title', $activity->secondary_item_id );
		// We have a title save it in activity meta to avoid switching blogs too much
		if ( ! empty( $post_type_title ) ) {
			bp_activity_update_meta( $activity->id, 'post_title', $post_type_title );
		}
		restore_current_blog();
	}
	return str_replace( $matches[1][1], esc_html( $post_type_title ), $action );
}
add_filter( 'bp_activity_custom_post_type_post_action', 'job_listing_include_post_type_title', 10, 2 );

Hi @Venutius,

I finally found some time to make more tests on this issue.

What I did :

Install a fresh WordPress 5.1.1 on a test server.
Install Buddypress 4.3.0.
Create a user called “blue”.
Create a user called “red”.
Connect with “blue” and send a private message to “red” saying “Hello I am blue and I say blue”.
Connect with “red” and send a private message to “blue” saying “Hello I am red and I say red”.
Export Data for both “blue” and “red” users.

Result :
Export Data for user “blue” shows one message sent to recipient “red” with content : “Hello I am blue and I say blue”.
Export Data for user “red” shows one message sent to recipient “blue” with content : “Hello I am blue and I say blue”.

The result is the same on this fresh install. For both users in a thread, the Export Data only returns the private message data content wrote by the creator of the thread.

For your information, I am running WordPress with French language. However I don’t think this can be linked to my issue.

Can you try to reproduce this please ?
I still think it is a bug.

Thank you 🙂

If the above is working with template files, why wouldn’t overwriting buddypress.css via /buddypress/bp-legacy/css be working like it would under /buddypress/css or /community/css?

oops sorry I put in the wrong snip then I couldn’t edit…here’s what “seems” to be working for me.

add_filter( 'bp_get_template_locations', 'my_template_pack_stack' );

function my_template_pack_stack( $locations = array() ) {

if( bp_get_theme_package_id()  === 'nouveau') {

$locations[] = '/buddypress/bp-nouveau';

} elseif( bp_get_theme_package_id()  === 'legacy') {

$locations[] = '/buddypress/bp-legacy';

}

  return $locations;
}

Thanks for getting back to me. I did reach out to their support but here is what they said

I tried to remove the members from the groups but it looks like there is nug in buddypress itself. It doesn’t remove the member from the group.

I tested the same thing with the wordpress default theme and the same result so it is a buddypress specific issue. Can you please once contact buddypress support and report the issue.

So I’m not 100% sure right now what is the source of the problem.
