BuddyPress.org

Thanks Shanebp. Seems like a pretty basic function – most people using forums expect to be able to insert images into their posts nowadays. Any plans to include this in Buddypress? Sounds like it’s going to be tricky to get it work with those plugins.

Yes @danbp

You have absolutely right.

Wordpress: 3.9.2
BuddyPress: 2.0.2
Theme: Twenty Fourteen

The issue I am talking about can be replicated (in my installation) using every theme.

I wish I could be more specific.

Hi again,

I use the latest versions of both WordPress and Buddypress and I can replicate the issue using “Twenty Fourteen” theme.

Wordpress: 3.9.2
BuddyPress: 2.0.2
Theme: Twenty Fourteen

Hi @danbp

I guess that if someone who uses buddypress search for a member as the url indicates: http://examplesite.com/members/?s=username

the he will go to the “searching members results screen” and he could replicate the issue.

The theme is the Twenty Fourteen.

Sorry if my english don’t help.

Hi,
Got this resolved. Was able to assign buddypress to the right site after network activating. Intuitively, at first, it seemed like I either needed to activate it on a specific site, or if I network activated it, it would be on root. I was able to define the site I wanted it on, network activate it then network activate the privacy plugin that needed to be network activated. I do hope buddypress integrates more privacy options into core, especially in this day in age people will want this kind of control, but this works and thank you! 🙂

Changing Internal Configuration Settings

Cheers!

Okay – so I have this
<?php if ( bp_has_members( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘members’ ).’&type=alphabetical’ ) ) : ?>

in the members-loop.php file and it sorts the users alphabetically by user name.

BUT if I put this:

function alphabetize_by_last_name( $bp_user_query ) {
    if ( 'alphabetical' == $bp_user_query->query_vars['type'] )
        $bp_user_query->uid_clauses['orderby'] = "ORDER BY substring_index(u.display_name, ' ', -1)";
}
add_action ( 'bp_pre_user_query', 'alphabetize_by_last_name' );

into the functions.php file I get this error message after it returns one user:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_member_alphabetical() in /home/homepatr/public_html/wp-content/themes/twentyfourteen-child/buddypress/members/members-loop.php on line 57

And here is a copy of line 57:
<div class="item-meta"><span class="activity"><?php bp_member_alphabetical(); ?></span></div>

I’m just a homeschool mom/volunteer trying to get our support group web site up the way we need it. This is definitely a learning experience for me, and I appreciate all the help!

@danp: Yes, that’s the plugin indeed. I have the latest version.

Thanks for the ideas! I have gone through those options and the whole website is pretty much one big WP manual in layout (knowledge base search type of thing) so that’s covered.

The one 2 one tutoring is practically a video call, but I also share files and links and make a summary and assign homework that I want them to be able to review in their profile.

So I guess the best way would be to somehow link a personal page to a profile. Any ideas on that?

While googeling and writing this I have come up with the following:

Use dynamic links to user profiles via and then give my students a restriction level via s2members or simalair and restrict acces that way. Just thinking out loud and still pondering how to link unique user ID’s to a page.

http://edu.durkkooistra.com/ I have an open website, so the knowledge base is open to anyone, I just want to restrict one page per student to add the videos etc too.

I used the code editor in my cpanel. It shows the first user but under that is this error message: Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_member_alphabetical() in …..wp-content/themes/twentyfourteen-child/buddypress/members/members-loop.php on line 57

Here’s line 57-

bp_member_alphabetical(); ?><

Did I list that correctly this time? Thanks for your patience. This is a steep learning curve for me.

No I am not using any extra profile plugin. I am using ignite theme and I think it is compatible with BP. check this.

Q 2. I have added extra field for short BIO and saw your codes add_action to retrieve and display that BIO of user but not getting where exactly I need to add that code in function.php. I am also not getting member.php in buddypress plugin editor. I think code would be like this but dont know where I need to put that codes exactly.

add_action( ‘bp_profile_header_meta’, ‘display_user_short BIO’ );
function display_user_short BIO() {
//This is where the code to display the user data will go.
}

$args = array(
‘field’ => ‘short BIO’, // Field name or ID.
‘user_id’ => bp_displayed_user_id() // Default
);

your cooperation would be highly appreciable.

Ok, I just deactivated all plugs again, this time I cleared the server cache, and I restarted them one at a time. When I turned on Facebook Thumb Fixer the txt appeared. So you are correct, it was Facebook Thumb Fixer. I will contact the makers of that and see if I can find a fix. I really like that plug in so I will figure it out.

bd-wall is this plugin : https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-wall/ but it seems to not be related to the problem I was having. Thank you so much for all your help.

strange, I disabled every single plug-in but buddypress and the txt is still there. Perhaps my install of buddypress has been corrupted in some way? If I delete the plugin and re-download and install it will I loose all the profile data?
