BuddyPress.org

Afaik there is nothing out to do this.

As start point, this snippet which let you hide a profile by user_id. Add it to bp-custom.php

function bpfr_hide_user_profile() {
global $bp; 
// hide user_id 35
if(bp_is_profile && $bp->displayed_user->id == 35 && $bp->loggedin_user->id != 35) :
   wp_redirect( home_url() );
   exit;
endif;
}
add_action( 'wp', 'bpfr_hide_user_profile', 1 );

I’m wondering what is a username for you.

WP register only a user by username (aka pseudonym), email and password. BP add a Name field in which you can add anything: username, first or lastname. In the user table, there is also display_name, wich is the combination of first and last name from a WP user profile, before BuddyPress was installed or if you allow your users to enter the dashboard, and they start to play with their profile settings. IMHO, it’s better they haven’t that access when BP is activated. 👮

When on the members directory, you (connected or not) can search a member by using his username.

If you use WP’s site search from toolbar or the search widget (same thing), it doesn’t work, as members are not post types… 👣

For now, i’m unsure what you want to fetch. Do you mean display_name ?

All search forms available in BP are contextualized, as @henrywright expected.

A BP class can be extended, a core function with a filter can be extended. You simply add your own to it.
In other cases, like for bp_core_action_search_site function (in bp-core-classes.php)
there is an action and a filter. Wow. 💪

You can rewrite the whole function and use the action hook or only change a part of it by using the filter.

remove_action( 'bp_init', 'bp_core_action_search_site', 7 );
function my_custom_core_action_search_site() {
   bla bla bla....
}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'my_custom_core_action_search_site', 7 );

or
add_filter( 'filter_name', function_name');

But before hacking to deep, read here:

Members Loop

Maybe you could find some interesting things about include or search_tems options. 👀

If all this is too much for you, consider this plugin:

@prabin04, @henrywright
🚧 i’m really not an expert in matter of BP search, but thank you for your consideration.

Anything related to notifications is in /buddypress/bp-notifications/ folder.

Best place to see commented BP code in a glance is
http://hookr.io/plugins/buddypress/#index=a

shareit/wordpress/sample-page/groups/test this path looks strange.

In which directory are WP/BP installed ?

Configure BuddyPress

Each component page must stay blank and without any template models or parent page…
Permalinks must be enabled, using any option except “default”.

Can you try on a test install? It may be the ACF plugin and we need to rule that out.

On your test install, be sure there’s no plugins running aside from BuddyPress and have the TwentyFifteen theme activated. Also, remove any custom code you may have elsewhere such as bp-custom.php

Try disabling all plugins aside from BuddyPress. Sometimes a rogue plugin can interfere with the registration process.

as lionel pointed out in other dupe topic – there is another forum replies on similar issue in regards to this when using localhost / wamp on local server I guess – https://buddypress.org/support/topic/resolved-404-the-requested-url-not-found-on-this-server/

ugh – just realized this is a duplicate thread from same poster.. grr.. how to merge. meh.
another answer to this – what I do when this situation arises first:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/the-requested-url-groupscreate-was-not-found-on-this-server/#post-244269

@varun404 – first thing I would do is go to settings -> permalinks.. make note of what they are.
Then change them to something else.
save.
then change back to pretty permalinks.
save.

then check your url – is it working then?

if not.. then make sure you have created pages that bp needs, and associated them:

Configure BuddyPress

if that is all set write, I would check my htaccess to make sure it is writable and wordpress is indeed adding code to make permalinks work.

have you tried looking at this Forum ??

Codex is your friend:

bp-custom.php

hi @tafmakura,

As first, did you activated Activity auto-refresh in BP settings ?
Second, as it concern a custom feature of yours, you have to check for ajax requests on your action post variable.
That said, there is a latency of 15 seconds before “load more” will show up a new activity. Not sure if this can be modified.

Seach on Trac for some hints about Ajax and activity.
Perhaps those tickets #5328, #6195 can help you.

You can add this to your robots.txt file:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /members/

Feel free to add more fields for the different areas of BuddyPress.

Note that it doesn’t guarantee Googlebot et al won’t index these pages, it just requests that they don’t.

hi,

first snipppet removes the mention tab.
Second remove the mention item from the top right usermenu below howdy.

Condition is set to site admin. If you use custom capabilities, change that to your need.
Code goes to bp-custom.php

function bpfr_hide_mention_nav() {
	//if ( bp_current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' ) )
	if ( is_super_admin() ) {
		return;
	} 
	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'mentions' ); 
}
add_action( 'bp_ready', 'bpfr_hide_mention_nav' );

function bpfr_admin_bar_remove_activity_mentions(){
global $wp_admin_bar;
	if ( is_super_admin() ) {
		return;
	}
	$wp_admin_bar->remove_node('my-account-activity-mentions');
}
add_action('wp_before_admin_bar_render','bpfr_admin_bar_remove_activity_mentions');

An alternate (IMO better) solution, is this premium plugin: http://www.philopress.com/products/buddynotes/

User Extended Profiles

To redirect your users to their friends activities page on login, you can use this:

function bpdev_redirect_to_profile( $redirect_to_calculated, $redirect_url_specified, $user ){
 
    if( empty( $redirect_to_calculated ) )
        $redirect_to_calculated = admin_url();
 
    //if the user is not site admin,redirect to his/her profile
	$url = bp_core_get_user_domain( $user->ID ) .'activity/friends/';

    if( isset( $user->ID) && ! is_super_admin( $user->ID ) )
        return $url;
    else
        return $redirect_to_calculated; /*if site admin or not logged in,do not do anything much*/
 
}
add_filter( 'bp_login_redirect', 'bpdev_redirect_to_profile', 11, 3 );

Snippet source: http://buddydev.com/buddypress/buddypress-trick-redirect-users-to-their-profile-on-login/

To add a home button to the main menu, use WP’s menu builder. But this doesn’t let you add a dynamic button going to EACH user profile, only to yours. You will have to code this.

See from here how to do this:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-get-notification-count-code/#post-244069
You need to introduce this:
$url = bp_core_get_user_domain( $user->ID ) .'activity/friends/';

This is possible as built-in feature from within a profile. Each field value is clickable by default (in fact the 5 first words). When clicked, you get a list of all members who entered the same value.

To list the member directory by xprofile field values, you have to code it or modify the directory template. Read from here:

Members Loop

How else would I override the buddypress file unless it was in my child theme with the same name?

You should NOT override core files. The only files you alter from child theme are template files.

To alter core functions, you use custom functions and add them via filter hooks, preferably added to bp-custom.php – so you won’t loose your work at next update.

member-profile.php doesn’t exist in BuddyPress.
