BuddyPress.org

Hello Shanebp,

This is what I mean:

In Buddypress dashboard > Users > Profile Fields > Add New Field Group… it’s not creating a new group.

Is there incompatibilty between WP 4.1 and Buddypress cause it’s duplicating my profile fields. For example: it’s now showing my name field twice.. and the order of the groups are changing every time…Weird

got, thanks for the heads up. the link on overloads explained much. i’m still a newbie re: WordPress and BuddyPress and find that it’s not always easy to get crucial info out of the documentation unless you already know it exists (or are familiar enough with these systems to know what you might be looking for).

Thanks again

Thanks henry,

I looked at that before but must have been half asleep!

Simply added index-directory.php to themes/mytheme/buddypress/activity/

I am not a coder, but I’m looking for a snippet that can do this:

Add Function: Change Admin Bar Login and Register Links

if user is logged out

Remove WordPress/buddypress admin bar Login and Register links

Add New Login and Register Links

New Login Link: <a data-reveal-id="tmpl_reg_login_container" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="tmpl_login_frm();">New Login Link</a>

New Register Link: <a data-reveal-id="tmpl_reg_login_container" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="tmpl_registretion_frm();">New Register Link</a>

if user is logged in don't do any of the above (i.e.) show their buddypress username and hide register links, etc...

Does anyone know how to make this happen in code that I can drop into functions.php or bp-custom.php

I stumbled upon this post suggesting a snippet to put into bp-custom.php (a tweaks and snippets file for buddy press located in the plugins directory), but I can’t get it to work. I think there is an issue with my coding.

I am using BuddyPress 2.1.1

Here is my bp-custom.php file:

<?php
// hacks and mods will go here

//Change Admin Bar Login Links
function custom_bp_adminbar_login_menu() {
    global $bp;
    global $wp;
    remove_action('bp_adminbar_menus', 'bp_adminbar_login_menu', 2);
    if (is_user_logged_in())
        return false;
    echo '<li class="bp-login no-arrow"><a data-reveal-id="tmpl_reg_login_container" href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="tmpl_login_frm();">' . __('Log In', 'buddypress') . '</a></li>';
    // Show "Sign Up" link if user registrations are allowed
    if (bp_get_signup_allowed()) {
        echo '<li class="bp-signup no-arrow"><a data-reveal-id="tmpl_reg_login_container" href="javascript:void(0);" onClick="tmpl_registretion_frm();">' . __('Sign Up', 'buddypress') . '</a></li>';
    }
}

add_action('bp_adminbar_menus', 'custom_bp_adminbar_login_menu', 1);

?>

By the way, I just saw this on line 40 of /buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/groups/create.php:

do_action( 'groups_custom_group_fields_editable' ); // @Deprecated

Does this mean that the function groups_custom_group_fields_editable is a deprecated function? The ‘@Deprecated’ note is in a template file.

Also, if it is deprecated, what should I be doing instead to add custom group fields?

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, bp-help. We didn’t use your plugin. There were others we used (especially BuddyPress Private Community) and some BP hacks.

The BP team and the plug developers all seem like great folks, and the community is friendly and active. Have spent a lot of time with vids of their presentations. Like the product, like the people, but the privacy of closed communities is critical. The question is still out there:

Is it actually possible to create a members-only community with BuddyPress 2.1.1. and multi-site WP without hacking BP?

@brgweb In plugins/buddypress-activity-plus/js/bpfb_interface.js in line ~49-50 I’m passing categories drop down form

$('.bpfb_preview_container').empty().html(data);
$('.bpfb_action_container').html('  <div id="category"> <select name="video_category"><option value="category1">Category1</option>........ 

In line ~435

$(document).on('click', '#bpfb_submit', function () {
		var params = _bpfbActiveHandler.get();
		var group_id = $('#whats-new-post-in').length ? $('#whats-new-post-in').val() : 0;
		var category = $('#category').val();
		var subcategory = $('#subcategory').val();
		$.post(ajaxurl, {
			"action": "bpfb_update_activity_contents",
			"data": params,
			"content": $text.val(),
			"group_id": group_id,
			"category": category,
			"subcategory": subcategory

And then in plugins/buddypress-activity-plus/lib/class_bpfb_binder.php in line ~328

$query='UPDATE wp_bp_activity SET video_category="'. $_POST['category'].'", video_subcategory="'. $_POST['subcategory'].'" WHERE id=' . $aid; 
		$dummy=mysql_query($query);

I’ll try with the code you provide to see if it’s working.
