You want to remove navigation from all profile pages?
Create a template overload of this file:
bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\home.php

And remove this div: <div id="item-nav">

h1.main-title, h1.page-title doesn’t exist. Why don’t you try the example at first ?

Also, don’t apply template models to BP pages. These are only placeholders used internally, not ordinary WP pages.

Follow some guidelines on Codex before getting in more trouble.

@kookidooki
where had you downloaded the plugin Skype for Buddypress?

@vinzen, wait a little or accept yes and no ;-). PHP 7.0.0 RC 1 is out since 2015/08/21…. RC version should not be used on production sites.

WordPress and BP are both guaranted to work only on the latest stable release of anything needed to get them to work. But you can test at your own risk, RC’s and trunk version are avaible for that.

php7 has a projected release date of November 2015. Next WP release is scheduled in december 2015. And BP around october…

WP devs are already using php7 for unit test. More from here (WP) and here (BP).

Idea Stream use the new post type activity introduced in BP 2.2

Post Types Activities

Take a look at this code, I think it may be helpful for you…

I created a function vp_add_group_activity_comments() that hooks to the ‘post_comment’ action, so when a user posts a comment an activity stream item is created and added to their group’s feed.. (on my site users can only be in one group at a time)

It’s all about what you set for the $args array….

function vp_add_group_activity_comments($comment_id){

$comment = get_comment( $comment_id );
GLOBAL $wpdb;
$user_id = get_current_user_id();
$user_info = get_userdata( $user_id );

$current_user_group_id = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT group_id FROM ".$wpdb->prefix."bp_groups_members WHERE user_id = '".(int)$user_id."'");

$comment_action = "<a href='".site_url()."/members/".$user_info->user_login."'>".$user_info->first_name." ".$user_info->last_name."</a> posted a comment on <a href='".get_permalink($comment->comment_post_ID )."'>".get_the_title($comment->comment_post_ID)."</a>";

// arguments to pass to the bp_activity_add() function
$args = array(
'action'            => $comment_action,                     // The activity action - e.g. "Jon Doe posted an update"
'content'           => $comment->comment_content,                     // Optional: The content of the activity item e.g. "BuddyPress is awesome guys!"
'component'         => 'groups',                  // The name/ID of the component e.g. groups, profile, mycomponent
'type'              => 'activity_update',                  // The activity type e.g. activity_update, profile_updated
'primary_link'      => get_permalink($comment->comment_post_ID ),                     // Optional: The primary URL for this item in RSS feeds (defaults to activity permalink)
'user_id'           => $user_id,  // Optional: The user to record the activity for, can be false if this activity is not for a user.
'item_id'           => $current_user_group_id,                  // Optional: The ID of the specific item being recorded, e.g. a blog_id
'secondary_item_id' => $comment->comment_ID,                  // Optional: A second ID used to further filter e.g. a comment_id
'recorded_time'     => bp_core_current_time(), // The GMT time that this activity was recorded
'hide_sitewide'     => 0,                  // Should this be hidden on the sitewide activity stream?
'is_spam'           => 0,                  // Is this activity item to be marked as spam?
);

$add_activity = bp_activity_add($args);

// Update the group's last activity
groups_update_last_activity( $current_user_group_id );

return true;
}  
add_action('comment_post', 'vp_add_group_activity_comments' );

Take a look at the code below to see how I use the post_comment action to hook my function vp_add_group_activity_comments(), which creates an activity stream item when a user posts a comment and adds it to their group’s activity stream… This is just what we are doing for our site, but if you look at the code you should be able to figure out how to do it for your site….

function vp_add_group_activity_comments($comment_id){

$comment = get_comment( $comment_id );
GLOBAL $wpdb;
$user_id = get_current_user_id();
$user_info = get_userdata( $user_id );

$current_user_group_id = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT group_id FROM ".$wpdb->prefix."bp_groups_members WHERE user_id = '".(int)$user_id."'");

$comment_action = "<a href='".site_url()."/members/".$user_info->user_login."'>".$user_info->first_name." ".$user_info->last_name."</a> posted a comment on <a href='".get_permalink($comment->comment_post_ID )."'>".get_the_title($comment->comment_post_ID)."</a>";

// arguments to pass to the bp_activity_add() function
$args = array(
'action'            => $comment_action,                     // The activity action - e.g. "Jon Doe posted an update"
'content'           => $comment->comment_content,                     // Optional: The content of the activity item e.g. "BuddyPress is awesome guys!"
'component'         => 'groups',                  // The name/ID of the component e.g. groups, profile, mycomponent
'type'              => 'activity_update',                  // The activity type e.g. activity_update, profile_updated
'primary_link'      => get_permalink($comment->comment_post_ID ),                     // Optional: The primary URL for this item in RSS feeds (defaults to activity permalink)
'user_id'           => $user_id,  // Optional: The user to record the activity for, can be false if this activity is not for a user.
'item_id'           => $current_user_group_id,                  // Optional: The ID of the specific item being recorded, e.g. a blog_id
'secondary_item_id' => $comment->comment_ID,                  // Optional: A second ID used to further filter e.g. a comment_id
'recorded_time'     => bp_core_current_time(), // The GMT time that this activity was recorded
'hide_sitewide'     => 0,                  // Should this be hidden on the sitewide activity stream?
'is_spam'           => 0,                  // Is this activity item to be marked as spam?
);

$add_activity = bp_activity_add($args);

// Update the group's last activity
groups_update_last_activity( $current_user_group_id );

return true;
}  
add_action('comment_post', 'vp_add_group_activity_comments' );

bp-custom.php
or child theme’s functions.php

You will need to go through all of the BuddyPress communication channels available:

1. Private messaging
2. Public messaging

etc

Then when a user attempts to send a message to a user they have not been assigned to, disallow it to happen via one of the hooks BuddyPress makes available.

With reference to assigning a user to a user, this could be achieved via user meta.

See here if it help:

Hi @muskokee,
BP nav menu code is in bp-core-template.php:3050 to EOF.

To change the position of an item on profiles page, use this from within bp-custom.php
Position is defined by the numeric value:

function bpfr_profile_menu_tab_pos(){
global $bp;
$bp->bp_nav['activity']['position'] = 30;
$bp->bp_nav['forums']['position'] = 50;
$bp->bp_nav['profile']['position'] = 25;
$bp->bp_nav['messages']['position'] = 10;
$bp->bp_nav['notifications']['position'] = 40;
$bp->bp_nav['friends']['position'] = 20;
$bp->bp_nav['groups']['position'] = 60;
}
add_action('bp_setup_nav', 'bpfr_profile_menu_tab_pos', 100);

You can also add some condition on the template. Ie

if ( is_user_logged_in() ) :
   your custom menu stuff
else
   something for non logged user
endif;

@bezuhov, please, read some explanation here:

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/blog-comments-not-appearing-in-activity-stream/#post-186091

I use a bp-custom.php file in the plugin folder

Do you mean like this plugins/buddypress/bp-custom.php?

If so, that’s the wrong place. It should be here:

plugins/bp-custom.php

Test this using 2014 theme? With other plugins disabled?
have you “enabled site tracking” in the buddypress settings?
( https://buddypress.org/support/topic/what-does-site-tracking-do/ )

I think I may have a similar issue, and I think there was a thread about this recently, like in the past 3 weeks or so.. I have not whittled it down to a bp-custom issue, or theme issue, or what yet myself – too busy trying to fix more important things at the moment..

interested if you find the issue / resolution – hope these tidbits help to find..

Please read here.

Are you sure that the mo file contains you’re change ? If yes, save po/mo in a safe place, then remove po/mo from live site and ensure your site comes in english (default).

– Reload buddypress_xx_XX.mo to wp-content/languages/plugins/buddypress-xx_XX.mo

Aside, which language are you using ?

You’re welcome !

To all readers, Codex reminder when getting 404, missing BP pages, not found errors after setup or upgrade ! 😉

Settings → BuddyPress → Pages

Pages are automatically generated for the BuddyPress components you enabled in the components settings using the default slugs based on the name of each component activated. Make sure that activated components have corresponding pages assigned to each in this panel.

Directories
Associate a WordPress Page with each BuddyPress component directory.

• Activity Streams (if activated)
• User Groups (if activated)
• Members > this is core and can’t be removed/modified

Registration

Associate WordPress Pages with the following BuddyPress Registration pages.

• Register
• Activate

Note: registration is not a BuddyPress component but part of WP core.
When you allow user registration, you have to add manually these pages.

Found the problem.

BuddyPress didn’t like that I had the groups page as a sub page of Members. Moved Groups page to the root and now everything works great.

Thanks for your assistance
