BuddyPress.org

Site directory, where I can list sites plus their link, summary, screen shot. Also I would want people to be able to upload their own information about their site like on blog catalog or technorati.

I agree that I probably don’t need to add the avatar path since it’s a new install, I’m wondering why I’m getting the ‘/home/integral/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-avatars.php on line 479’ error code?

Thanks for the reply.

Thank you so much, Mercime! I’ve got most of it all installed with the exception of a few hiccups.

I had a difficult time with the avatars even before this modification. I’m getting this error code
‘/home/integral/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-avatars.php on line 479’
When I go into bp-core-avatars.php on line 479 I see this as the definition:
‘function bp_core_fetch_avatar_filter( $avatar, $user, $size, $default, $alt ) {

// If passed an object, assume $user->user_id
if ( is_object( $user ) )
$id = $user->user_id;

// If passed a number, assume it was a $user_id
else if ( is_numeric( $user ) )
$id = $user;

// If passed a string and that string returns a user, get the $id
else if ( is_string( $user ) && ( $user_by_email = get_user_by_email( $user ) ) )
$id = $user_by_email->ID;

// If somehow $id hasn’t been assigned, return the result of get_avatar
if ( empty( $id ) )
return !empty( $avatar ) ? $avatar : $default;

// Let BuddyPress handle the fetching of the avatar
$bp_avatar = bp_core_fetch_avatar( array( ‘item_id’ => $id, ‘width’ => $size, ‘height’ => $size, ‘alt’ => $alt ) );

// If BuddyPress found an avatar, use it. If not, use the result of get_avatar
return ( !$bp_avatar ) ? $avatar : $bp_avatar;
}’

I’ve tried installing a bp-custom.php file within the plugin directory so that it would not be deleted when updating Buddypress but it produces an error everywhere on the site.
Here is what I tried to add as the bp-custom.php file for reference:
‘define( ‘BP_AVATAR_UPLOAD_PATH’, ‘/var/www/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files’ );
define( ‘BP_AVATAR_URL’, ‘hxxp://integralbeings.com/files’ );’

As I look at the code, I’m wondering if this is because there is no hxxp://integralbeings.com/files directory. Do I need to add this or is the path incorrect? Also, I’ve not seen hxxp before, is this a typo?

Thanks for the support on this, it’s rather minor in the grand scheme of things, but I’m wondering if it will become a bigger problem as the community grows.

Cheers,

@r-a-y Thats sounds a little better, I thought I would have to filter the `bp_has_groups` function, I guess I didn’t quite figure the code out. I’ll try that. Thank you everybody let you know how it goes

Under development? It looks and feels amazing!! I love the design of the site and the slightly better placed admin bar is extremely easy to read.

Also, while I have you, are there plugins that verify the username or the password strength or are those custom designed? Your site looks wonderful. Keep up the great work @pcwriter.

@nuprn1 thats a nice idea, I don’t know about the apply_filter though. the `$browse_sql` var is a new var that I initiate in just that function and within the scope of the if statement. Reasons being I added a whole other table to be queried in `$paged_groups` and `$total_groups` array being returned by the `get_active` function.

Its a small line of code, easily replaced on upgrade and works perfectly fine for me right now, I just wanted to be able to access, append/modify and object oriented class function from an outside function (that doesn’t make sense) lol. Something like whatever I have in my what if statement gets its own function and the arguments from the get_active function and processes my query after get active is complete (sorta), its not a private function so I can access it outside the BP_Groups_Group class, just don’t know how I can do an add_action or an apply_filter
