BuddyPress.org

I have also tried in a loop like in this codex, but breaking the page, what am i missing?

<?php if ((is_buddypress() ) { echo '<meta name=”robots” content=”noindex, nofollow>'; } ?>

You help is much appreciated!

Thanks

Thanks @henrywright. I installed it and tested it out, doesn’t seem to be even slightest issue with it. @jjj should just push incremental updates that update compatibility so WordPress removes that ‘warning’ message – the plugin works great so it’s a shame that people new to BuddyPress (like myself) are scared away from it for no reason.

Thank you very much for the quick reply!

Sorry I am no php pro here, tried like this but breaks page!

add_action( 'wp_head','noindex_groups' );
function noindex_groups() {
if ( bp_is_groups() ) {
 echo '<meta name=”robots” content=”noindex, nofollow>'
}
}

add_action( 'wp_head','noindex_buddypress' );
function noindex_buddypress() {
if ( bp_is_groups() ) {
 echo '<meta name=”robots” content=”noindex, nofollow>'
}
}

Thanks

all i want to know is how the avatar are set in the user meta, because I have an external image url and want to set it in the meta but don’t know how they do it in buddypress, i have red all the files in buddypress plugin, but nothing helps. For the field datebox also I don’t know why it is not working I am sure my data is good but why it is not showing ?

$random_user = wp_insert_user( $userdata ) ;

this is how i get the user ID its working fine only birthday and avatar which are my problem, I can’t set a date or an avatar from an external link.
I have used an API to generate random users then I save it as a buddypress user.
And $user_id was a mistake I use instead $random_user but it’s not working anyways.

Hey @webgirl

Thanks for the link, I followed the link and check all my settings, and all is in good shape. Beside, I installed the theme using their quick installation guide, which installs the theme with their default setting from the demo site.

By looking at their demo site, it does not have this sidebar, so I don’t know exactly where the issue might have come from.
Just take a look at single member profile, it still goes without side bar.

In my members page edit, the sidebar I selected is buddypress sidebar.

@venutius: thank you! Not quite what I was looking for, but might work if there is nothing else.

@danbp: I notice that the Mass Messaging in Buddypress plugin hasn’t been updated for 2 years. Is it still safe to use?

General reflection: to me this seems like extremely obvious functionality (for an administrator to be able to message all users in a specific group). How come it isn’t part of Buddypress core functionality?

shane thank you for your help I figured it out while I was waiting and used this function

I added this to members-loop.php

if ( bp_has_members( include_only_subscribers() ) ) :

and added this to my themes function.php

function include_only_subscribers() {
  
  global $wpdb;  

    $query = "SELECT user_id FROM " . $wpdb->prefix . "bp_xprofile_data WHERE user_id IN (SELECT user_id FROM wp_usermeta WHERE meta_value LIKE '%subscriber%')";
  
  $custom_ids = $wpdb->get_col( $query );
  
  if ( !empty( $custom_ids ) ) {
    // convert the array to a csv string
    $custom_ids_str = 'include=' . implode(",", $custom_ids);
    return $custom_ids_str;
  }
  else
   return '';
}

it seems to be working I just used some info from https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/loops-reference/the-members-loop/

and modified to meet my needs.

please let me know if you see any problem with my approach and thank you so much for your response and help with this
