Ask GF for the hook re a form submission.
Then use that hook to call a function that uses bp_activity_add()
no no. i checked everything twice, sure abt that.
i really dont know wat has happened to register page.
i will backup my data, and detele the theme + buddypress plugin
then i will reinstall them again.
maybe that’ll work.
Hi @littlemisslanna,
Yep, but you have better to ask how to do that on Gravity Form support forum. We can help you here for BuddyPress usage, not for third party implementation. Sorry ! 😉
The function tells gettext() to change a string to another. It use a switch called $original_string. If not explicit enough, this means the original phrase or words you want to modify. You see it near ‘case’. And right of return, you can put your words.
The present example use only one case. But you can add more. (See php switch)
function abcd_gettext( $translated, $original_text, $domain ) {
if ( 'buddypress' !== $domain )
return $translated;
switch ( $original_text ) {
case 'STING YOU WANT TO MODIFY':
return 'MODIFIED STRING';
default:
return $translated;
}
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'abcd_gettext', 20, 3 );
IMPORTANT
Why to use po/mo if this kind of function can be used ?
– because po/mo is much faster as only loaded once.
– using this function force gettext to recalculate all strings one by one at each string load. Imagine what will happen on your server if you translate all 1970(BP2.6) BP’s string like this!
– this function can be handy only in case you need to change a few words. I wouldn’t use it for more as 10 strings.
– it’s also handy if you already use a mo file, but need temporary a different word/string.
So you’re warned. Best practice to change strings is to use po/mo files. See codex for details.
Hi Buddypress,
That is cool, I been wanted to change the sizes ,etc for the avatar for long time as well. Thanks much on this help!
However, my initial help I want is just to ADD an image above each member avatar, without touch any codes (see below link).
I only able to find the php to add this cherry image shown on the members page ONLY? Which I wanted globally on every members!
Here is the link I used for the members page, but also want to locate that (CLASS=AVATAR )for other files and directory that I can also paste the same link global for all avatar.
<div class=”search-item”>
<div class=”avatar”>
Please see before and after example for the cherry above. I needed to find that MAIN/GLOBAL area as well.
Please advise help, thanks
@dono12,
when the cover image option is enabled, BP use cover-image-header.php not member-header.
To get your idea to work, you need a function to calculate who is online and to add a class to the exiting div. Depending the result, we can then add an online or an offline class.
And of course, some css rules.
The function to add this class to the div with an action hook.
Add it to bp-custom.php
function check_connected(){
$last_activity = bp_get_user_last_activity( bp_displayed_user_id() );
$curr_time = time();
$diff = $curr_time - strtotime( $last_activity );
$time = 5 * 60; // = 3mn - time must be in seconds
if( $diff < $time ) {
echo 'online';
} else {
echo 'offline';
}
}
add_action( 'online_class', 'check_connected' );
Now you just have to add the hook to the template. Open from within child-theme, /buddypress/members/single/cover-image-header.php
Go to line 25, and change
<div id="item-header-avatar">
to
<div id="item-header-avatar" class="<?php do_action( 'online_class' ); ?>">
Open /child-theme/style.css and add:
div.online img {
border: solid 2px #008000!important;
background: rgba( 255, 255, 255, 0.8 )!important;
}
div.offline img {
border: solid 2px #be3631!important;
background: rgba( 255, 255, 255, 0.8 )!important;
}
And voila, you’re done !
Note: you can use the same hook in member-header.php, so you can enable/disable cover-image without loosing the on/offline layout on profile header avatar.
Wait it seems this was caused by me not setting friend connections and private message in buddypress settings..
Hmm so I did that and it didn’t work. I copied the .pot file into sublime text and saved it as buddypress-en_US.po, then saved it as buddypress-en_US.mo then moved both those files into the specified folder on my server.
That screen isn’t provided by BuddyPress. It’s something provided by another plugin, or perhaps within the theme. Can you identify which one?
this should fix it for u
THEME UPDATE – VERSION 3.0.11 (June 7th 2016)
Updates and fixes.
Updated to Slider Revolution v5.2.5.3.
Fixed BuddyPress multi-field checkboxes being output twice.
Fixed some PHP notices.
@sjoerdlagraauw as r-a-y mentions test this version of bp
BuddyPress 2.6.0 Release Candidate 1 now available for testing
regarding @mention as danbp suggested its not a bp issue. i checked this myself. its working in default 2016 theme of wp. but NOT working for other paid themes i have.
mostly paid themes or custom themes use their own jss/css stuff in their own custom manner which creates an issue.
if you got jss/css issues best of be asked at the custom themes support
Just to make sure I understand. Is it a theme problem of will it be solved in the next update of Buddypress @sharmavishal, @r-a-y and @danbp? Cause there are some other issues with ajax in this theme as well.
I am in no hurrie so if it will be solved next week that would save me a lot of searching and debugging 😉
Thanks for all the help!
it’s explained above !
Another solution here:
Hide All Members Tag
I am curious how to achieve this as well with the current version of BuddyPress (2.5.3).
I can see that the “Create an Account” title in on line 3070 of bp-core-template.php
How could I change this to “Register” through a hook/filter in functions.php or bp-custom.php?
That plugin create field types. You asked for how to create a CV with BuddyPress. Basically, such a feature use a text-area field type. 🙂
Essentially my issue is I am trying to see a users profile/registration before I activate them because their registration process includes info/files that need to be vetted before activation. Now it appears there’s no way to do that under vanilla buddypress/manage signups menu, but per this thread I can see all that info under the BP registration plugin.
The issue becomes I need to activate/approve the user twice; once under manage signups, once under BP registration.
Thanks, i found helpful plugin for solution.
Plugin Name:
BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Fields Type
https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-xprofile-custom-fields-type/
Check out this codex page:
https://codex.buddypress.org/emails/#customize-header
By default these buttons are showing on the profile header.
The action location is defined in
/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/member-header.php:66
/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/cover-image-header.php:45
When Profile Cover option is enabled (see bp settings), BP use the cove-image-header file.
If the option is disabled, he use member-header.
In both case, these buttons need the displayed_user_id and the loggedin_user_id to work. This means you need to be at least in the member loop.
You want these buttons to appear elsewhere. OK. But where exactly ?
Don’t hesitate to provide a screenshot sketching the new place.
Add a a new field group to profiles, call it CV, add some fields and options and you’re done.
User Extended Profiles
As you certainly want to get this part a bit apart of the other profile fields, you can also use this plugin who brings a nice tabbed profile page.
