BuddyPress.org

@mercime : Thanks – placing the “span.activity { display: none; }” in the css worked for me. Q: Now that the activity is hidden, would it be possible to display the users phone# in that same spot? http://www.pciba.org/members Thanks

You do not need PHP skills, it’s simply a copy paste operation in reality, an understanding of markup is required though.

In essence you are comparing those two files and using your current themes file as the baseline and ensuring a BP file matches it in markup structure. Not sure what that second file is meant to be as it appears to want to display a video which my current browser is not enabled for..

This walkthrough might help you better.

@Paul Gibbs who? Top Man! haha

Works for me too. Thanks, John!

== By switching to Buddypress default, do you mean uninstalling and re-installing the plugin? ==

@hardy4775 he means go to Appearance > Themes > Activate – BuddyPress Default

@dbrooke https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network
Deactivate BuddyPress and make sure everything’s working well with your WP Multisite https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/#system-server before installing BuddyPress.

@ All – WP/BP versions? Have you deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and changed to bp-default theme? That is not default behavior so something’s interfering with the login.

@Jigsawseo If you change Custom Community theme to bp-default theme, does the error still appear when you activate BP Album+?

If the error still comes up, then post your issue in album plugin’s forum https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-album/forum/

If the error is gone, then go to BP Custom Community theme forum and post your issue there http://themekraft.com/forums/

Confirmed fixed in both themes and plugins. Thanks @johnjamesjacoby

== i cant find anything like user-header.php ==

Hello, I’ve just faced the problem you are talking about. Indeed, buddypress allows to delete activity entries only for superadmins or for activity “owners”.

In order to fix this in your groups section go to file “wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/ajax.php”, locate function “bp_dtheme_delete_activity” (I have it on line 205). You should see the following access check there :

`if ( !is_super_admin() && $activity->user_id != $bp->loggedin_user->id )
return false;
`

Replace this access check with custom one:

`if( $activity->component == ‘groups’ && !class_exists(‘BP_Groups_Member’) )
require( BP_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/bp-groups/bp-groups-classes.php’ );
if ( !is_super_admin() && $activity->user_id != $bp->loggedin_user->id
&& !($activity->component == ‘groups’ && BP_Groups_Member::check_is_admin( $bp->loggedin_user->id, $activity->item_id ))
)
return false;
`

Not sure if that’s a best solution, though it does the trick.

P.S. there is also “bp_activity_action_delete_activity” function in “wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-activity.php” with same access check, probably its worth to add custom access check there aswell, not sure, I’m good as it is at the moment.

@DJPaul count me in

@sbrajesh sounds very cool

And here’s another for all.

@phoenixology – you should go to your frontend Group ADMIN and after you click on it there’s an option DOCs (you can’t see DOCS unless you click on Groups ADMIN , there is a checkbox asking you if you want to have DOCS enabled , if you confirm YES and say minimum role who can create DOCS it will show you DOCS for all other people – registered etc . then you can create your docs , hope it helps . creating docs has nothing to do with WORDPRESS ADMIN DASHBOARD , there when you have created them , you can manage them (I am learning admin dashboard too –

Thanks @djpaul,
Yes, I remember that. Just trying to bring it back as an option to the site admins and allow them to extend it.Going to put a patch later today for that.
Re query: Yes, the query count is still applicable to bp trunk #4396. It is only in the case of multiselect box where the query is done for each item in the list. will look into that and put some patch.

@doctordr, The front end posting capability is coming as part of wordpress upgrade in near future(hopefully). They are making the quickpress available to front end. checkout this ticket for details(It was dropped in 3.1 and let us hope it comes with 3.2)
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/14966

A huge limitation of BP at the moment (and WordPress in general) is the lack of front-end posting and moderation. I’ve had to hack this into my current site by using conditional user level statements to present a restyled admin screen to users – one which looks identical in terms of header, footer and CSS to the front-end – and unsets or removes redundant menu items. The way around this would be to modularise certain admin functions (posting, comment management) so that theme designers have flexibility in the way they are presented and integrated on the page with other functions. This could be achieved with shortcodes or even widgets. I can see no functional reason why users should be sent to an un-themed back end to post new blogs and I’m sure it’s holding BP back as the choice for many sites.

Unfortunately I can’t offer to help apart from documenting my hack as an interim solution.

In terms of the multiple CSS suggested by @bowromir, I’ve spent the last year working with Zend Scaffold as used within Webligo’s SocialEngine 4 and it was a PITA. Scaffold caches an aggregated version of all stylesheets used in the theme into a single CSS, which sounds logical but makes it very time consuming to debug or alter the base stylesheets since tools such as Firebug cannot tell where styles originate from.

@cnorris23 I would suggest that anyone looking into moving where the data is stored in the database hold off a little while, until the core team have a plan about how custom post types will work and be implemented for each of the components. We have had lots of discussions about custom post types for BuddyPress, but we’ve been focusing on finishing up 1.3 for some time now. It’s great you’re interested, though

@mercime, thanks for supporting the theme here.

@JamieWade I am putting a new version of CB in next 3-4 days which will support the activity reply. If you have other feature suggestion please do let me know here or on the cosmic buddy’s blog page. sorry for the delayed reply.

@candy2012
i did not get the post notifications and I was not active here, so could not help you. sorry for that
@latinosamorir
Yes, I have the solution. I am posting a detailed tutorial today. Will link here.
btw, the above code still applies.

Also fixed our own download page, which was similarly broken.

Try again?
