Hi,
if you had read the plugin support, you certainly would have found a link to a fixed copy in a topic marked [resolved] related to Breaks Boss theme with Buddypress 2.6.1.
Here’s the direct link(zip) on Github to this updated version by @r-a-y. Before using it, rename the folder to bp-group-hierarchy.
I tested it with latest WP/BP/2016 and it works as expected.
@danbp This may help for the comments loading after “load more” button..
Can this be implemented on the replies section (i.e 2nd level threaded comments)? Because for now, threaded replies doesn’t collapse either. When I see the entry.php & comment.php all the divisions are wrapped in ‘activity-comments’ There is no distinction IDs & classes between comments and replies (2nd level comments or threaded). They are all counted or put under as comments-replies together. I think there needs to re-write some of the template files or put relevant separate classes for both comments and replies to be successfully work with js.. Pre-loading the comments by default hide property may do the tricks but that’s no easy task for a guy like those who are relatively new to buddypress.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Hey, @danbp Thanks for the long and detailed response.
I’m fully aware of what you’re trying to convey the risk factors on this.. But as my requirements are different, I’ve completely disabled the media library and allowed access the users to each individual gallery only (negating the access of other’s files).. I’ve uploaded images hosted on sub-domains that completely separate from the main site.
All the activities that takes place on the site are on the front end.. The back end wp administrator dashboard are disabled for editing ( of course they are enabled for updating plugins & adding pages occasionally) as most of the pages are done in custom-template.. No admin or author level privileges are created on the site – just the subscriber as it’s mainly a networking site.. The idea that attaching the media button gives lots of flexibility to the users to resize the images or review them in the content area itself before they can post the activity.. Unless it’s a forums or community sites, for a networking sites, leaving alone with html codes or text editors may be (perhaps) discouraging impression for the social users.
I’m glad that you pointed out it’s more of a wordpress thing than buddypress.. I’ll have a look at the possibility of getting it work and let you know.
Thanks.
According to your specifications:
1) We would like that user after purchase of one of those services could access to a private page where he can manage what he have purchased.
2) We would like to have freedom to put personalized content on user private pages.
3) We need in particular that a user could use a contact form tu send us extra information on services configuration.
Solution:
1) woocommerce + some page privacy settings
2) wordpress configuration
3) a contact form ?
I would say you don’t need BuddyPress for that. Confirmed by your statement:
We don’t need to have interaction between user, like a forum or a social network.
Read about BuddyPress.
@danbp Thanks for the reply.. I got this working with “text editor” on both post (what’s new) & comment section, but just wondering what prevents those forms from allowing “visual editor” – as it remains unclickable. Is it something to do with filters on buddypress or the problem comes from within wordpress? I’d just want “add media” and “bold font” button on the visual switch.
If you can point me the files I can edit, that would be wonderful.. I looked around activity filters & bp-core but I’d want to confirm from your end about this before experimenting it or messing up the wrong files.
Thanks
Hi everybody, I ask here to understand how to use Buddypress for my new web services platform.
In particular, we want implement Buddypress in conjunction with Woocommerce.
We’ll sell SEO service, landing pages, custom maps service etc. for business.
We would like that user after purchase of one of those services could access to a private page where he can manage what he have purchased. We would like to have freedom to put personalized content on user private pages. We need in particular that a user could use a contact form tu send us extra information on services configuration.
Another thing is that the user private page should have their usernames as web addrress: http://www.oursite.com/username-login.
We don’t need to have interaction between user, like a forum or a social network.
I hope that could be enough to you to undestand what we would like to do and I hope you could give some useful feedback and ideas about that.
Thank you very much
Hello,
How do I make posts only visible to friends, I’ve used in plugin BuddyPress Activity Privacy It works well, but the small problem is when I commented on one of the picture shows the post for all people ! What is the solution!
Hi,
I am using Kleo theme.
I modified Profile Activity Stream to show only “update” and “rtmedia” with following way.
…/wp-content/themes/kleo-child/buddypress/activity/activity-loop.php
Changed as below
if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘activity’ ) . “&action=activity_update,rtmedia_update” ) ) :
—
The result is now like below..
XXX posted an update
YYY posted an update
XXX posted an update in the group XYZZ
YYY posted an update in the group YYIIZZ
Is there any way to hide or remove “..posted an update in the group…”? I don’t want to show people’s group activities.
(Groups’ activity is already showing within the group only as default. Not member’s personal activities.)
Thanks,
T
I don’t see myself either. I tried different themes and it didn’t work. Two other members (created by me) logged in. I assigned the members directory in Buddypress settings to the Members page.
Can you give an url so somebody can check what’s going on.
If you need some tutorial, as you begin with BP, the best is to read from the codex.
And that starts with Required !
Getting Started
@danbp
Thank you danbp!
I followed your instructions and i was able to register new users, but i never got confirmation emails to those new accounts i added. I never received emails to confirm my username/account.
After the register button worked, I decided to install buddypress and then it happened again. This time, when i installed buddypress, it AUTOMATICALLY installed the register AND activate page. BUT, both of them do not work. and every single link i click on, on my website brings me to an error screen saying that there is no page for that.
No page for register, no page for members, no page for activity, etc.
What do i need to do from here to get everything working?
Also, I’ve looked through the internet for quite a long time for a thorough up-to-date tutorial of this.. and there are none that i could find. Is there a tutorial you could point me towards that will actually help me get all this set up correctly?
I’d love to use buddypress for my site, but i don’t want to use it if it’s going to have pages crashing once my site is live – that would be horrific!
Tips? help? What do i do from here?
I have trying to overload
home.php in buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\
I use avada Child theme so I should create my new file home.php in : Avada child/buddypress/members/single/home.php
This what I try but not working.
That is not possible for group users. These users are already listed as site users, where you already can bulk edit their roles.
A BuddyPress Group is made of regular WP users. Being in a group doesn’t modify that, and that’s the reason why you have no role editor on the group user admin – other the ones belonging to groups (group admin or mod).
Note also that a group admin is not a site-admin, just a regular member (subscriber by default).
In other words, the group admin interface is made to manage group members only (no relation with WP and WP roles and capabilities).
And WP’s members list is to manage site users, roles and capabilities.
How can we know that, you don’t give details. Perhaps start you install correctly ?
Getting Started
Hi guys,
We’ve just started with BuddyPress, can you please let me know if there is a way to restrict profile feilds to be visiable to selected groups.
E.G all our members will enter an address but they may only want people in Group A and B to see it but not people in groups C, D, E & F is this possible at all?
Thanks in advance!
Chris
You’re welcome. 😉
In case of, here’s another trick.
If you read BP auto join plugin description:
Optionally determine which group to join based on Member Type, using our BuddyPress Member Types plugin.
And as you have other conditions, you need Conditionnal profile fileds.
Field Name Favourite Games
select
Condition
If favourite is racing > Auto join Racing Group, it is music, join group music and so on
Member Types to create
arcade, action, sports, racing, music
But i can’t learn you more. You have to experiment with all this to find the best compromise.
I copied the entire directory with all of it’s components, with the intention of deleting any file that remained unchanged. My thinking was this way I was not messing with the core files but a copy of them so I could always revert back should I need to.
In order to change the Site-Wide Activity title on a page where would I start if not the core files? I searched for each file that contained the phrase “Site-Wide Activity” and those were the instances I’d found.
I can’t modify page.php in my theme when BuddyPress seems to insert it’s own content during the page load.
When I installed BuddyPress I was expecting unique pages that could be duplicated and modified to include/exclude the elements wanted within the page and to style those pages with ease, a bit more like a standard theme I guess.
What do I do now, my guess is start of by deleting my duplicated directory.
You will find all those templates in the BP plugin in this directory:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\
If you want to change a file, you should create a template overload.
Hi I m actually looking how I can modify and insert some html/php code in the profil page of buddypress users ? Can you told me what file contains this page ?
Thank you
Perhaps a CSS adjustment to do ?
But first, revert to a twenty theme as it work’s now.
If you see the button with Twenty, you have a theme issue.
Reactivate your theme and check the page source code in your browser and verify that the button exist in the code.
(../members/USRNAME/profile/change-cover-image/)
This button is in a drag’n’drop area inside a script.
If you see the code but don’t see the button displayed, you have to work your CSS to get it.
Meanwhile you can try to add a picture by drag’n’drop even if you don’t see the button (it is only usefull in case drag’n’drop doesn’t work – ie when JS is deactivated).
Can’t say more…
Codex reference (in case of)
When everything seems to be working fine – just noticed that Activity comments actually doesn’t collapse after “Load more” button. For the first page it normally collapse after 5 comments but that feature disappears when “load more” button is clicked. It doesn’t work even if the load more button is translated to infinity scrolling.. Looks like there needs to be made whole lot changes in js files (buddypress.min.js)..
Also, threaded replies doesn’t collapse even after 10-20 replies. Being social networking plugin, if those features are not working, it’s tough to get going anywhere further.. It’s a basic thing to fix. Users can’t scroll 200-300 replies down the page just to see the next post..
I saw older post regarding the same issues (some post as old as 5-6 years) but seems bp developers have stopped working on it.. The issue is apparently not with the themes (as I’ve tried with multiple themes including the default wp-themes), the results are all the same.
If someone has any suggestions or notice the same problem can join this thread.
Thanks.
