Hi @imath, thank you so much for writing back. For some reason I didn’t get the notification, and was depressed over the site for a month. Today I decided to finally face the issue again, and what a nice surprise!

So my code is:

add_filter( 'bp_blogs_record_post_post_types', 'inspired_record_more_types' );
function inspired_record_more_types( $types ) {
     $types[] = 'projects';
     $types[] = 'sfwd-courses';
     $types[] = 'uig_image';
        return $types;
}

add_filter('bp_blogs_activity_new_post_action', 'record_cpt_activity_action', 1, 3);
function record_cpt_activity_action( $activity_action,  $post, $post_permalink ) { 

   if( $post->post_type == 'projects' ) {
	$activity_action  = sprintf( __( '%1$s created a new project, %2$s  ', 'buddypress' ), bp_core_get_userlink( (int) $post->post_author ), '<a href="' . $post_permalink . '">' . $post->post_title . '</a>' );
   }
if( $post->post_type == 'sfwd-courses' ) {
	$activity_action  = sprintf( __( '%1$s added a new workshop, %2$s  ', 'buddypress'  ), bp_core_get_userlink( (int) $post->post_author ), '<a href="' . $post_permalink . '">' . $post->post_title . '</a>' );
   }	
if( $post->post_type == 'uig_image' ) {
	$activity_action  = sprintf( __( '%1$s added a new image, %2$s  ', 'buddypress'  ), bp_core_get_userlink( (int) $post->post_author ), '<a href="' . $post_permalink . '">' . $post->post_title . '</a>' );
   }
   return $activity_action;
}

function bbg_record_my_custom_post_type_comments( $post_types ) {
      $post_types[] = 'projects'; 
      return $post_types;
  }
  add_filter( 'bp_blogs_record_comment_post_types', 'bbg_record_my_custom_post_type_comments' );

Thank you so much. I really appreciate it.

I’ve created a ticket about this bug here:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6528

This should be fixed for v2.4, which is tentatively scheduled for an autumn release.

In the meantime, you could use the 'bp_verify_nonce_request_url' filter to remove the double port number, which should temporarily fix the issue.

Hi lionel @prabin04

no directly the solution, but you asked for code, here it is:

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/adding-favourite-posts-as-a-tab-in-buddypress/

No screenshot ? Anyway, on group activity page, some action to take could be:

$my_fav_count = bp_activity_get_meta( bp_get_activity_id(), 'favorite_count' );

The important thing here is bp_activity_get_meta()

Most of favorite action are related in bp-activity-actions.php, like
$favs = bp_activity_get_user_favorites( bp_displayed_user_id() );
also some in bp-activity-functions.php:659

Thanks for the report.

BP will better support emojis after we’ve upgraded our database schema to support utf8mb4.
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6346

More info courtesy of WP here:

The utf8mb4 Upgrade

@djsteveb,

was miffed too, and decided finally to not use emoji’s. IMO unnecessary built-in noise, coming from extarnal server and added to every page without warning the site admin ! I disabled them with this plugin. On another hand, 23% of websites use now emoticons and probably 90% ignore that… Marketing !!!

If you still want some pics (if childish public is the target), see WP MonaLisa, which is even tailored for BuddyPress.

Have a nice day ! 😉 (emoticon ?)

Ya it works very well.

Thank you so much.

But now 1 question arise is that right now i had changed my code manually in bp-core-functions.php file but when i will update my buddypress plugin ,i think that my changes will be erased.

so is that any hook or actions are available so that i can use that hook in my theme functions.php file.

Many Thanks so far.

1) Yes

2) The same as the default user level you set up in WordPress. By default, this should be the ‘subscriber’ role.

3) https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/register-and-activation-pages/

4) BuddyPress does not come with a bundled login page. It uses WP’s default wp-login.php page. You can find plugins on the wordpress.org repo to modify the login page to your liking.

hi @maelga,
You can’t actually automatically associate a user to a category.
try Restrict Categories, which let you assign categories to each user via backend.

To associate an xprofile value (or member_type), try this:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-assign-a-wp-user-role-based-on-a-registration/#post-232887

When you use WordPress alone, you can use many plugins for registering.

If you use BuddyPress, you also use his fonctionnalities.
One of them, is Members, which comes also with extra components, like extended profile.

When you use extended profile, it is like using a register plugin for WP, with his own extra fields you can create/add to the original WP registering process. After that, each user can handle/view these fields on his profile.

Now you have to choose:
– WP alone, with his poor profile fields
– WP + BP, with rich profile fields
– WP + BP, without xprofile component (and users go back to the original profile fields aera).
– or ask on ninja plugin support for improvement guidance to apply with BuddyPress.

Try deactivating all plugins (aside from BuddyPress) and activate the TwentyFifteen theme. Do you still see the problem?

@jacipetersilie – best thing I have seen that is close to fbook like chat thing is the free “quick chat plugin” – however I do not use it to show as a widget on all pages and give a popup to users – as I think that would tax the server and web browser more than is reasonable if you have dozens of users – it might work, might not. I use quick chat for a single chat room on a single page.

From what you are describing however, I wonder if you really need a chat plugin to do what you are saying – one to many message – like the super-admin send a message to all users, kind of privately… I think there are some plugins in the wild that allow admin to send an email (Which I guess would be a buddypress inbox notification (?)) – to all users… that would “one to many” message – and give people a way to “message you back” privately I think.

I have also seen a plugin that will allow super admin to add a note to all dashboards – although I guess many bp users will not go to their dashboard when using most features –

I suppose you could also assign users to a group, and select settings for them to get a notice email when a new group message is sent. Which may achieve what you are describing.

If you just want one-to-many messaging chat with users who are actually logged into a chat room, I think it would be easy to do that with nusoft’s av-chat, there are settings in which you can make it so only certain users can post in the chat, have moderated chat, turn off pms and stuff like that – I guess I am not clear on what exactly you are trying to accomplish as I don’t use fbook and am not familiar with the kind of one to many fbook messaging you are talking about.

This is an issue that has been identified and ticketed and in the process of being corrected, hopefully it will be included in a point release, if not we can show how to modify or replace the core file in the interim short term.

Where do I “require(‘../fpdf/fpdf.php’);” and where in loop to call from?

You could place this at the top of your template file. So if you’re using the BuddyPress template hierarchy, that would be your members/index.php template. Be sure to adjust the path, unless of course you have the class stored in the parent directory.

haha, I have had 64 sleepless nights with lots of ciggies and coffee, but just before giving up it started to make sense.

(yep at least 64 days)

here is my first buddypress site

Still works for my site, but have not updated Buddypress yet to latest version

Hi @rekwan,

Thank you for sharing !
But to be sure with that hack, i would recommend you do the same on NextGen support, and eventually ask the authors to take in account a better option, in case of BuddyPress.

They’re also much cleaner and safe solutions, as explained here.

Not sure what you mean by ‘connect’.
Even if you could connect members from different installs, managing their interactions across multiple databases would be difficult.

afaik, devs use multisite so that everyone uses the same db.
There are some threads about various multisite + BP approaches, here’s one:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/resolved-how-multiple-buddypress-sites-with-some-shared-users/

Nobody can walk you thru the issue based on your description.
Maybe:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/activity-ajax-problem-with-bp-default-theme/

The theme author is over loading the BP templates.

Sounds like the theme hasn’t been updated to work with the latest BP.

Instead of deleting the whole [your-theme]\buddypress
Try just deleting this file:
[your-theme]\buddypress\members\single\profile\change-avatar.php

If that doesn’t work, try deleting some more profile related files in [your-theme]\buddypress.

And tell the author about your issues.
