You can ignore this message if you’re using BuddyPress on a production site.

To turn off debugging notices on production, set WP_DEBUG to false in wp-config.php:
https://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG

This is a notice caused by a plugin that is initializing user info too early. If you want to find out which plugin is causing this, deactivate all your plugins and only activate BuddyPress. Next, activate your plugins one-by-one until you find the culprit.

It’s likely that nobody has even thought about this yet because Calypso is so new. Check out these instructions if you want to install it: https://github.com/Automattic/wp-calypso/blob/master/docs/install.md

Also, there are various projects in progress for BuddyPress. Here’s one example:

These requirements are very custom so I doubt there will be a plugin available. My advice is to take a look through the core project code to familiarise yourself with how BuddyPress works. There’s also a BuddyPress Skeleton Component you can use (check out the comments) to learn how to create a new component should you need one.

You should look at bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/activity/post-form.php, making changes if necessary using the BuddyPress Template Hierarchy article as a guide.

You shouldn’t change core files.

You should be able to make your changes via template overloads.

Copy this file
bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\messages\single.php
to your child theme so that the dir structure looks like this:
your-theme\buddypress\members\single\messages\single.php

Then in single.php, change
if ( bp_thread_has_messages() ) :
to

<?php  
	$args = array(
	   'order'     => 'DESC'
	);
if ( bp_thread_has_messages( $args ) ) : ?>

To change the location of the reply box, adjust the html in that same template overload.

The likely reason why bp_get_member_user_id() is returning NULL is you are using it outside the members loop. See the Playing with the user’s ID in different contexts article for info on how to get the member’s ID in the various contexts that exist within BP.

I have no idea if this plugin still functions because it was last updated ~4 years ago, but check out BuddyPress Block Activity Stream Types.

Is explained here:

BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG

You must check out BuddyPress Member Types.

BuddyPress Member Types lets you create and manage member types without having to code. You can also allow users to choose their Member type while signing up and also through their profile options.

Please use the code button when posting code.

This works for me:
<?php if ( bp_has_groups( bp_ajax_querystring( 'groups' ) . 'type=alphabetical' ) ) : ?>

If you copy & paste, make sure the single quotes ‘ aren’t changed to something else, like `

This is the correct path: wp-content/themes/relativity/buddypress/groups/groups-loop.php

There is no template called loop.php

Unless you’re are explicitly using the BP default theme, you should be using this file
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\groups\groups-loop.php
And creating a template overload of that file and making your changes in the overload.

Groups Loop

<?php if ( bp_has_groups( bp_ajax_querystring( 'groups' ) . 'type=alphabetical' ) ) : ?>

Nice one @imath and congrats to you and all the team, although i have not had time to try this out yet i will do do sometime soon, i have not been as active on here recently due to being so tied up with what i am doing myself, the cover was a well needed implementation and i am so glad it was added to core. now if only you guys could get a dedicated like system built into it or a favourite feature that would lets users favourite other pages and custom posts other than just on buddypress posts and related pages 🙂 … hehe.

I’ve got a fix ready:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/6745/6745.01.patch

Apply the lines in that patch to your BuddyPress install.

To test this, you’ll need to set WP_DEBUG to true so it will load the unminified version of the javascript:
https://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG

Let me know if this fixes the problem.

What are your URLs linking to? In your video you mentioned something like /members/?s=whatever?

In BuddyPress 2.4.0, you have to change the s parameter to members_s. In 2.4.1, this will change to members_search due to a typo.

How are you setting up the members loop to filter students by school?

We do not store avatar data in the database.

We do a look up at the files level instead.

If you want to show an avatar based on a custom avatar stored in the database, you’ll need to use the 'bp_core_fetch_avatar' filter to override how BuddyPress shows avatars:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/2.4.0/src/bp-core/bp-core-avatars.php?marks=531-546,660-664#L531

If you just want to display a user avatar, use the bp_core_fetch_avatar() function:

echo bp_core_fetch_avatar( array(
    'item_id' => USER_ID_TO_GRAB_AVATAR_FOR
) );
