BuddyPress.org

It might be a timing thing – bp_init is called before the namaste code creates the cpt.

Anyhow… try this in the creation of the namaste cpt:

…

"supports"=>array("title", 'editor', 'author', 'thumbnail', 'excerpt', 'comments', 'post-formats', 'buddypress-activity'),
'bp_activity' => array(
    'component_id'          => buddypress()->activity->id,
    'action_id'             => 'new_namaste_lesson',
    'contexts'              => array( 'activity', 'member', 'groups', 'member-groups' ),
    'position'              => 70,
),
"taxonomies"=>array("category"),

…

Did you try using the repair tool?

wp-admin > Tools > BuddyPress > Reinstall emails (delete and restore from defaults).

If it’s a BuddyPress page then I guess the bp_core_fetch_avatar() function should display the local avatar if no Grav exists. Are you saying this doesn’t happen?

So wp_mail_from works for all email notifications aside from private message email notifications? If that’s the case then this is likely a bug. You could open a ticket for this on Trac.

@imath – this didn’t solve my problem. It remains the same as I had mentioned in https://buddypress.org/support/topic/buddypress-2-5-0-medici/ (no trigger situations seen).

I’m not aware of any plugin that controls 1-to-1 private messaging for BP.
You’ll most likely have to write it yourself or hire a developer.

Hi @jek-fdrv

Yes. See https://buddypress.org/support/topic/read-this-first-buddypress-2-5-master-list/

This has been fixed for BP 2.5.1 which we hope to release this week.
I am sorry that we caused this problem.

Use this hook ( from buddypress\bp-groups\classes\class-bp-groups-member.php ) to call a function that deletes the activity:

do_action_ref_array( 'groups_member_after_remove', array( $this ) );

Hi there! Where did you get the codex.fr.buddypress.org URL from? I have a hunch the reason you’re seeing this is because subdomains more than 1 level deep aren’t covered by our certificate, but I also don’t think we use those anywhere. If we do, we should correct those URLs to be more friendly.

That said, I suspect keeping codex content synchronized across multiple languages will be a pain. Maybe it’s easier (though obviously not very welcoming or inviting) to machine translate from English?

The only way I was able to get this to work was by modifying my custom post type directly in the functions.php. Agnes, perhaps this will help you as well:

function create_post_type_videos() {
	register_post_type( 'my_videos',
		array(
			'labels' => array(
				'name' => __( 'Videos' ),
				'add_new_item' => __( 'Add Video' ),
				'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Video' ),
				'all_items' => __( 'All Videos' ),
				'singular_name' => __( 'Videos' ),
				'view' => __( 'View Videos' ),
				'view_item' => __( 'View Video' ),
				'search_items' => __( 'Search Videos' ),
				'not_found' => __( 'No videos found.' ),
				'not_found_in_trash' => __( 'No videos found in Trash.' ),
			),
			'public' => true,
			'has_archive' => false,
			'supports' => array( 'title', 'author', 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'revisions', 'comments', 'buddypress-activity' ),
			'taxonomies' => array( 'product_type', 'videos_categories' ),
			'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'videos'),
			'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-video-alt3',
			'menu_position' => 5,
			'bp_activity' => array(
			    'action_id'         => 'new_video',
			    'comment_action_id' => 'new_video_comment',
			)
		)
	);
}
add_action( 'init', 'create_post_type_videos' );

The key bits of code are the ‘buddypress-activity’ the ‘supports’ array and the ‘bp-activity’ array at the end. After modifying my custom post type to include this code, I now see comments appearing in the Activity Stream.

Perhaps someone could verify if this code is correct, and also explain why the code in Shane’s example (and in the BP docs) is not working?

Is it a relatively simple process?

Yes, BuddyPress is just a plugin so once you have WordPress set up you can install BuddyPress via a few clicks.

Importing members from a spreadsheet will most likely need a plugin. Try searching the Plugin Directory to see what is available.

BuddyPress can do all of these things right out of the box. Regarding point 5, you will need to disable both the private messaging and activity components. That can be done from the admin area in a few clicks.

@agnesmeil – Try:

function agnes_customize_lesson_tracking_args() {

    if ( ! bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) 
        return;
 
    add_post_type_support( 'namaste_lesson', 'buddypress-activity' );
 
    bp_activity_set_post_type_tracking_args( 'namaste_lesson', array(
        'action_id'                         => 'new_namaste_lesson',
        'bp_activity_admin_filter'          => __( 'Published a new Lesson', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_front_filter'          => __( 'Lessons', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_post'              => __( '%1$s posted a new <a href="%2$s">Lesson</a>', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_post_ms'           => __( '%1$s posted a new <a href="%2$s">Lesson</a>, on the site %3$s', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'contexts'                          => array( 'activity', 'member' ),
        'comment_action_id'                 => 'new_namaste_lesson_comment',
        'bp_activity_comments_admin_filter' => __( 'Commented a Lesson', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_comments_front_filter' => __( 'Lessons Comments', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_comment'           => __( '%1$s commented on the <a href="%2$s">Lesson</a>', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_comment_ms'        => __( '%1$s commented on the <a href="%2$s">Lesson</a>, on the site %3$s', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'position'                          => 100,
    ) );
}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'agnes_customize_lesson_tracking_args' );
