BuddyPress.org

I recommend using the bp_after_has_activities_parse_args filter to modify the activity stream (remove admin items). Check out this helpful article:

Using bp_parse_args() to filter BuddyPress template loops

Can Buddypress accomplish this? If so, would it be a complicated and labour intensive process to implement?

WordPress and BuddyPress should be able to handle this. The 2 levels of members you speak of could be either BuddyPress member types, or WordPress roles.

However, there is one tricky part. People need to be able to search for each event type, and also whether the event is hosted by either a “Facilitator,” or a “Host.”

This part is easy to solve. You would save either “facilitator” or “host” against the event’s meta when the event is created or updated. Then when you build your custom search, you can use the pre_get_posts hook to output matched posts, using both the search and meta query parameters in WP_Query.

I doubt if you’ll find somebody on these forums who knows if BuddyPress works with NetForum Pro.

>Can we limit what groups they are part of?
Probably, but you’ll need good knowledge of how BP Groups work in order to write the custom code required.

hi there,
may i ask someone to help me with a mod of this script?

i would need to autojoin my users who register a site/blog on my buddypress multisite install to a specific group (group for bloggers).

how can i filter the script to only autojoin them?

thanks a lot for your help!
br, eric

BuddyPress has a API that you can use: https://codex.buddypress.org/component/private-messages/

You can hook at the WooCommerce actions when sending the emails and send your private messages.

Hope that helps! 🙂

The BP REST API does not have support for users yet. My guess is that the version you are using if imcomplete, missing support for several components.

Check the work here for more updates: https://github.com/buddypress/BP-REST

And here’s the BP database diagram

BuddyPress Database Diagram

Hey,

The fix for that is coming in the next release of buddy press. Or at least for the part of the problem.

You most likely get 50% of your problem from these two in my case with 6k users these amounted to the respective query execution times (from new relic), I also run buddypress + rtmedia (which is the source of this problem) as described in this ticket:

bp_friends_prime_mentions_results() – Used by the Activity component’s @mentions to print a JSON list of the current user’s friends.

bp_friends_prime_mentions_results – 10,000+ ms
bp_core_fetch_avatar – 6,000+ ms

Here’s a fix:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/11561

You’ll still likely stay with this massive query even for logged out users:
WP_User_Query::query on average right now it’s at around 7,500ms.

Good news is that with HHVM site runs much faster due to object caching straight after enabling it.

I’ve also played around with various hosts, flywheel & wpengine sucked. What works well is Kinsta with HHVM enabled, they can also check your database and help you move to InnoDB if you’re using another one.

Anyway man hope this helps.

Best,

M.

How many profiles am I able to make with buddypress on my website, enough for a school community ?

This should be fine. BuddyPress can handle a huge number of profiles quite easily. Note though, your server hardware will need to be good if there’s lots of site activity.

Is it possible to create PREMADE accounts for all these people (students) ?

Yes but you will need to custom code this.

When people post on the main stream, is it possible for them to post anonymously BUT still logged into their accounts ? Just like ask.fm if anyone remembers that.

Not by default. Each activity item is associated with a member. That said, what is displayed on the front end is entirely up to you (or more specifically, entirely up to your theme author).

The problem is the Activity component only allows certain elements to be shown in the activity stream.

By default, <ol> and <li> are not among those whitelisted elements.

You can override this behavior with the following code snippet in your theme’s functions.php file or via wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:

// Allow list-item element through
add_filter( 'bp_activity_allowed_tags', function( $retval ) {
	$retval['ul'] = $retval['ol'] = $retval['li'] = array();
	return $retval;
} );

I’ve also opened a ticket about this here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7538

Hey,

I’m experiencing a similar issue with 6k members, I can’t imagine the size of requests at 30k+…

It seems like mine was triggered by use of RTmedia, cause is described in this ticket, together with a patch:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7530

If you’re using their plugin/s this could have been a cause.

Btw cool site 🙂 and congrats on the user count.

Disable All RSS Feeds – update

I wouldn’t recommend changing core files because when you update BuddyPress, you’ll lose all of your modifications.
