BuddyPress.org

For sure you can, but without my help now. This is a BuddyPress support, not a theme support and you have to learn and do your home work on your side.

Don’t want to vouch for security without actually testing it, but I like the idea of allowing field values to be parsed for oembeds, so I’ve created a ticket to capture the idea: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6603

Hmm. Related to https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/9716/trunk/src/bp-core/admin/bp-core-admin-schema.php and https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/9695

@reggie3 what version did you upgrade from?

@ajarnonline Please don’t create duplicate topics: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/buddypress-xprofile-rich-text-field/

You’re only going to get the same answer.

You may adjust existing menus or use the buddypress menu.

@jeremymh,

Plugin author stopped support on wp.org repo since a few weeks.
sLaNGjIs Team do not provide support on wordpress.org forum and reviews system!

If you get an issue, you have to ask here now https://github.com/sLaNGjI
This is also the reason why nobody answered to your question on support….

FYI, i found this in the plugin review ! You’ve nothing to loose to try that.

In plugin’s ReadMe, it’s stated that:
* Work on all WordPress version from 3.1+ to 4.2+
* Compatible with bbPress and BuddyPress (for front-end hide).

BuddyPress settings has an option to show/hide the Toolbar to users, which is working properly since a while. I’m not aware of any toolbar trouble who should be resolved in BP’s core in regard of a third party plugin.

Conclusion: don’t use a plugin who has no decent support. Do it yourself or search another plugin. Sorry !

Ok, let’s try something different.
Add a file called functions.php to child root
/child/functions.php
Copy/paste this, including php tags

<?php
// enqueuing the child to parent - don't remove */
function theme_enqueue_styles() {
    wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_enqueue_styles' );

/********************** CUSTOM STUFF **********************************/

// other custom function

?>

Inside child’s BuddyPress folder, you can remove anything except CSS and JS folder.

You want to create an event via the update form on the activity page?
afaik – that is not possible.

You can create events that will also generate an entry in the activity stream.
This plugin will do that: https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-simple-events/

@naisai,

are you sure you want to show a list of over 80 cities ? Have you ever scrolled such a long list on a mobile (usage 2014) ?

Please, read here:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/list-of-countrystatecity/

Gardenia is not BP ready.

Create first a child theme. Add a new folder to wp-content/thems/
wp-content/themes/gardenia-child/
Now add a new file and call it style.css
Copy this header comment into it (/* & */ included):

/*
Theme Name: Gardenia-child
Description: child theme
Version: 1.0
Author: XXX
Template: gardenia
*/

Save.

In that folder, add another one called buddypress and another one in this folder called css

Go to wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/css/ and copy buddypress.css file into the css folder you created in the child theme.

In legacy/buddypress/ directory, is a js folder. Copy the whole folder into child’s buddypress directory.

End result should be:

/gardenia-child/
/gardenia-child/style.css

/gardenia-child/buddypress/css/buddypress.css

/gardenia-child/buddypress/js/buddypress.js
/gardenia-child/buddypress/js/password-verify.js

Go to dashboard > Appearrance > Theme and activate Gardenia-child.

Done ! The theme shows BuddyPress properly.

Add custom filters to loops and enjoy them within your plugin

See here:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/bp_field_has_data-show-message-when-empty-field/

The snippet is checking for empty fileds. This is not what you want. Simply remove ! before $data, so it will check that if $data exist, do something. Exclamation point means “not”.

Use add_filter( 'bp_before_member_header_meta filter', 'your_function_name' ); to add custom things to profile header and
add_filter ( 'bp_directory_members_item', 'your_function_name' ); for members directory.

@rgrober,

see here if it helps:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-add-fields-from-xprofile-fields-groups-created-by-me/

@wp_starter,

ratings and reviews button are not part of BuddyPress. Search in your plugins or theme.
CSS rules for something like #item-header-content are generally added via style.css of a child-theme or via specific theme settings.

@sharmavishal,
read from here:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/resolved-restricting-users-to-one-group/

See if you can do something with 2nd plugin mentionned in topic. If not able, you have to ask for on Group Hierarchy support.

We only support BuddyPress here.

Hi @repterra,

if you use a child theme with 2015, please read here about the new (since 2.3) Companion Style Sheet:

BuddyPress Companion Stylesheets

@jrunfitpro “there wasn’t a good answer for my question” –
I think you should of imply replied to your previous (not dupe) thread – would keep things more tidy.
Also you never reported back what your optimize press people had any details about the issue.

anyhow, with your setup I wonder..
“not pulling from certain pages ”
– what exactly is not being pulled?
from pages?
posts?
multi-site sub blogs?
Pulled from media comments?

If you switch to default 2014 theme – does it work then?

If you use 2014 theme and disable all other plugins (and mu-plugins and bp-custom if you have those) aside from BP is the issue resolved?

If “not pulling from certain pages” still does not work with 2014 and all other plugins removed, then you may find the answer on the other threads and solution hunting things posted:

Post comments not appearing in activity stream?

(and those items linked in comments from there)

If “not pulling from certain pages” does work fine with 2014 as theme and other plugins disabled – then it’s an issue with your other theme or plugins (or combo of them).

@jrunfitpro
Why you start new thread for exact same question as before you?!
( https://buddypress.org/support/topic/has-anyone-figured-out-how-to-use-optimize-press-2-and-bp-site-tracking/ )

maybe delve into searching the forums..

similar questions and answers 4 days ago -https://buddypress.org/support/topic/post-comments-not-appearing-in-activity-stream/

or point your optimize press to search the forums and codex here and find the fix if you can’t figure it out.

I don’t think you will find a lot of help here with a premium theme and it’s specific issues. Especially since there has been no new information provided.

xProfile data is a BuddyPress thing and user meta is a WordPress thing. Which one you use will depend on whether you plan to always use BuddyPress. If not then taking the user meta approach will ensure your plugin will work on all WordPress installs (even when BuddyPress is deactivated).

The best advice I can give is to look at how some of the already-available plugins do it. XML Sitemaps is a good one to learn from. It might not cover BuddyPress pages but I’ve used it in the past and it worked great for me.
