@xrun Cool. Either way…you can style the text box just the same. do you have anywhere to see in action? How about that copy and paste scenario? Glad it worked.

I’m closing this thread as all further discussion about my Featured Members Widget should now be made with the Featured Members Widget Group forum:

https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-featured-members-widget/forum/

@mark211

Yes, the Featured Members Widget is working just fine on WP 3.0 and BP 1.2.5.2. So, you will have no issues. As far as your other question, the answer is yes. You find the member’s ID by logging into the back end of WP as Site Admin.

Just navigate to the “Site Admin > Users” menu and hover your mouse over the member’s username. Look down in your browser’s status bar at the URL for that member and you will see–as part of that URL–the “user_id=” segment. The number right after that is the member’s ID in the system. An easier way to find this information is to look at the wp_users table in your MySQL database.

@boonebgorges I did this, and set the limit to 5 while testing. It adds a “load more” link at the bottom of that short list, but when I click it nothing happens, nothing more is shown.
What I did was to copy and put this into my bp-custom.php :

function my_custom_query_filter( $query_string ) {
$query_string .= ‘&per_page=35’;

return $query_string;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_dtheme_ajax_querystring’, ‘my_custom_query_filter’ );

@jeffsayre, I’m using 2.9.2 MU and the latest version of buddypress. Are they compatible with the featured members plugin? Also, what are the IDs for the members, is it referring to the usernames?. Thanks,

@glamgrif, Much appreciated for the link. I’ve just tried it in a buddypress install. True that it doesnt work at all for buddypress. I’ll probably look into launching a different stylesheet as well.

Please ignore my last post.

@Travel-Junkie It works a treat. Thanks very much. Just added the code below within the php tags in my active theme’s functions.php file (…/wp-content/themes/XXXXXX/functions.php) and that was all I had to do. Very nice indeed. Now the site is only visible to logged in users (except for blog posts which are visible to everyone)

function sh_walled_garden()
{
global $bp;

if( bp_is_register_page() || bp_is_activation_page() )
return;

if( ! bp_is_blog_page() && ! is_user_logged_in() )
bp_core_redirect( $bp->root_domain .’/’. BP_REGISTER_SLUG );
}
add_action( ‘get_header’, ‘sh_walled_garden’ );

At the most straightforward level of theming you shouldn’t really need to get too involved at a PHP level, creating a child theme will simply allow you to start overwritting or adding your own CSS styles via the style.css sheet in your new theme directory while still using the default themes files and styles – but you perhaps realise that

Hello, is there any solution to this besides going from PHP4 to PHP5?

It’s a little bit problem doing this migration on this server where i am at the moment.

Thanks

@mrjarbenne @brianglanz @boonebgorges @modemlooper – Dis this ever get sorted. Does it work as Brian mentiona above? Thanks

Got it working, used the code @r-a-y suggests here: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/g-field-this-plugin-adds-an-additional-field-to-group-creation/

update *

It works now with the group creation but not when editing a group.

@silversurferes I have the same problem. Since the last updates the Buddypress Ajax Chat doesn’t work at all. Fatal errors. It’s been disabled. I liked having the chat, but since I’m in here now and on this topic,

@Dfa327 I’ve been wondering how you got a GPL license for this plug-in when your ads come with it and aren’t modifiable. Seems to me GPL is all open for modification and is free – that’s the point, right?

Am awaiting wp-touch plugin

I have looked at the database, it adds it to the wp_bp_groups_groupmeta table on step 2 when creating a group but as soon as you go to step 3, it deletes it.

Glad it’s solved, I was planning to create an account this morning to have a look but sounds like things are now ok.

Best place to start – if you haven’t already – is the ‘Creating a child theme’ page

https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

It adds tags when you update a group but not when you create a group

@SuluhuZetu, Sorry for the delay: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mobile-pack/

Is this available to see now in the trunk?

In terms of the BuddyPress API or SQL or via a theme?

I’m willing to bet that 1.3 will have theme changes, as it’ll be a major release. There’s lots of suggestions and improvements we can make to BP-Default, it’s just that no-one’s got started on it yet.

Good work team

EDIT: Hey, @digitaldance – thanks very much for the paypal donation

@dwenaus – awesome plugin but I have one problem with it. When I create a new group and going from step 2 (settings) to step 3 (upload avatar) it loses the tags I have added on the first screen. The only way to add them again is to go edit the group. I’m running WP 3.0 and the latest version of BP.
