Hi @jeremybivaud,

without seeing your custom code, it’s difficult to say if you have some issue or conflict with other plugins.

I can’t help you much for doing your stuff, but have you used the BP_Attachment API ? This can probably help you.

You may also find some related topics to attachment by searching the forum. 😉

Oh, i see what you mean now. You want to modify the page title. You used the word WEB in place of site name…. and activity meta title is something different.

You have to write a function to apply to bp_modify_page_title filter.

Reference
You’ll certainly find many snippet for this by searching the forum.

i checked the hebrew translation available on GlotPress. It seems to me it is correctly translated.

Copy/pasting RTL strings doesn’t work here… anyway here what i get (href is LTR here – but is ok in poEdit)
החשבון שלך הופעל בהצלחה! אתה עכשיו יכול <a href="%s">להתחבר</a> עם שם המשתמש והסיסמא שהכנסת כשנרשמת לאתר.

This is very vague, can you give details please ?
Site-Wide Activity – Web is not part of BuddyPress

@r-a-y

I found out what was causing the problem for me. I don’t know if the cause is the same for the OP.

In forum settings, I had unchecked the “Forum Prefix” box (the one that prefixes all forum pages with the root slug “Forums.”) I also had the Search slug set to the default “search.”

This left the forum search results “script” if you can call it that, pointing to domain.com/search – which I gather is the default search URL for WordPress and BuddyPress?

Without BuddyPress installed, the forum search still worked, but with BuddyPress installed – nothing. And yet, it was NOT BuddyPress, it was my own lack of understanding. 🙁

I hadn’t realized that the root search slug, without forums in front of it, would cause a problem. But I did some digging around in all this and discovered that both the twentysixteen theme, and BuddyPress, have pages called “search.php” – so naturally, domain.com/search would point to one of those scripts, and not to bbPress search results. (bbPress does not have a search.php page)

Anwyay, when I check the Forums Prefix box, and search the forums, the results page loads at domain.com/<strong>forums</strong>/search and everything works perfectly.

Unforunately I’m using a plugin for bbPress that changes the URL structure and requires me to leave the Forum Prefix box unchecked. But, I found a way around that too – in Forum Settings, I simply changed the search slug to search-results and again, everything works perfectly (and the URL for search-results is now domain.com/search-results which in no way conflicts with domain.com/search)

I have to say, had you not mentioned the search slug in your response, it never would have occurred to me that it would be the cause of all my frustration. I’m glad to have this resolved, and hope that my explanation is enough that it will be able to help anyone else who might run into the same issue.

EDIT

I’ve also discovered that I can set the search slug to forums/search which effectively accomplished the same thing as leaving it on search whilst checking the Forum Prefix box. i.e. they both return the URL as domain.com/forums/search which may not be a huge deal, but it does seem to look prettier than any other URL…

Try this hook – 'bp_before_activity_delete':
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.6.2/src/bp-activity/bp-activity-functions.php#L2770

It depends on what you want to do.

If you are talking about template overrides, then follow this guide:

Theme Compatibility – Customizing

If you are talking about code snippets, you can use your theme’s functions.php file or wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php.

When I try and search the forums I get no results and returned to the home page

I’m having this same problem and it is definitely an issue that is caused by BuddyPress. I’m using WordPress 4.6.1 with the TwentySixteen Theme, bbPress 2.5.10, and BuddyPress 2.6.2.

When I deactivate all bbPress related plugins, the search still sends me back to the home page. When I deactivate BuddyPress – the search works exactly the way it’s supposed to.

Is there a file in the BuddyPress theme that I can modify/remove/replace, that will correct this issue?

It’s not free and I have used but might be what you need.

Ning To BuddyPress

If you are on latest version of buddypress( > 2.6 ), the following code will work:

//hide setting nav in profile
function w24dr_remove_settings_nav() {
    $bp = buddypress();
    $bp->members->nav->delete_nav( bp_get_settings_slug() );
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'w24dr_remove_settings_nav' );

//redirect settings to main profile page
function w24dr_redirect_settings_nav(){
    if( bp_is_user() && bp_is_current_component( bp_get_settings_slug() ) ){
        wp_redirect( bp_displayed_user_domain() );
        exit();
    }
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'w24dr_redirect_settings_nav' );

But it still doesn’t remove ‘settings’ nav from adminbar. You need to work some more to remove it from there.

Personally I use “Mass Messaging in BuddyPress” ( https://wordpress.org/plugins/mass-messaging-in-buddypress/other_notes/ ), It works quite fine, and It has some more featured than “Mass Messaging for BuddyPress – by Alkaweb”

I know this is an old post, but I hope this reply can help someone.

There is a free plugin that allow to send Mass Messaging to all members of the site, and also to filter them, you can find it here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/mass-messaging-for-buddypress-by-alkaweb/

Hi,

See first here and check this very old snippet (3 years). Untested.

Hi!

Yes, bp_activity_entry_meta is the correct hook.

If you prefer to use JS, see an example here.

So I can’t get the sorting by LAST NAME to work. By default buddypress uses the display name on the members directory so I’m using this function to get it to display the xprofile data.

function my_directory() {	
if ( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) )

	if ( $membername = xprofile_get_field_data( 'First Name', bp_get_member_user_id() ) . ' ' . xprofile_get_field_data( 'Last Name', bp_get_member_user_id() ) . ' ' . xprofile_get_field_data( 'Title', bp_get_member_user_id() ) ) :
		echo '<div class="dir_name">';		
		echo $membername;
		echo '</div>';
	endif;	

}
add_filter ( 'bp_member_name', 'my_directory' ); 

But the function you provided above doesn’t sort by the xprofile data. Any help?
