BuddyPress.org

With user_can() I can check for user capabilities but what BuddyPress template files or hooks I have to use to edit the user profile page? (I’m talking about the ‘website.tld/users/NAME_OF_THE_USER/profile/’ page)

I should probably clarify my last post

I understand CSS, but I’m a beginner at it. I can change CSS attributes of the table like color, font, width, etc. I just can’t figure out what is keeping the data fields so far apart. It doesn’t look like cell spacing, margins, padding, or borders.

I understand that this may be an issue with my theme, but perhaps someone knows how buddypress setup the table?

Hey Shane,

Yes I chatted with them they told me to chat with Buddypress since it was you guys plugin

Ok I narrowed it down further, its this line thats causing the issue.

$comment_activity_id = bp_activity_add( $args ); (line 717 in bp-blogs/bp-blogs-functions.php)

Since I am not familiar with buddypress codes, can somebody help me trouble shoot this.

@oliver_rub, our current solution involves deregistering the BuddyPress mentions script and enqueuing our own slightly modified version with a more generic jQuery selector. I think @slaffik has found the best solution though, I’m going to try it.

@benworxnl, no we had a slightly different scenario. We transformed the “What’s New” textarea into a WYSIWYG editor and the visual tab worked on that straight away. The issue we had was getting the mentions to work on that visual editor.

Anyway, we duplicated and edited the activity/post-form.php template and replaced the textarea with wp_editor;

wp_editor(
	isset( $_GET['r'] ) ? '@' . esc_attr( $_GET['r'] ) : '',
	'whats-new',
	array(
		'textarea_name' => 'whats-new',
		'editor_class'  => 'whats-new-mce',
		'editor_height' => 200,
		'tinymce' => array(
			'toolbar1' => 'bold,italic,underline,|,blockquote,|,bullist,numlist,|,link,unlink,|,spellchecker,|,undo,redo',
			'toolbar2' => ''
		)
	)
);

For activity replies, you could do something similar to this in activity/entry.php;

wp_editor(
	isset( $_GET['r'] ) ? '@' . esc_attr( $_GET['r'] ) : '',
	'ac-input-' . bp_activity_id(),
	array(
		'textarea_name' => 'ac_input_' . bp_activity_id(),
		'editor_class'  => 'ac-input',
		'editor_height' => 200,
		'tinymce' => array(
			'toolbar1' => 'bold,italic,underline,|,blockquote,|,bullist,numlist,|,link,unlink,|,spellchecker,|,undo,redo',
			'toolbar2' => ''
		)
	)
);

Please note, I’ve not tested the above.
