BuddyPress.org

found this section in the bp-groups-activity.php
this seems to relate to the public groups, does anyone have any ideas on what to change here?

// Set the default for hide_sitewide by checking the status of the group
$hide_sitewide = false;
if ( !empty( $args[‘item_id’] ) ) {
if ( bp_get_current_group_id() == $args[‘item_id’] ) {
$group = groups_get_current_group();
} else {
$group = groups_get_group( array( ‘group_id’ => $args[‘item_id’] ) );
}

if ( isset( $group->status ) && ‘public’ != $group->status ) {
$hide_sitewide = true;
}
}

$r = wp_parse_args( $args, array(
‘id’ => false,
‘user_id’ => bp_loggedin_user_id(),
‘action’ => ”,
‘content’ => ”,
‘primary_link’ => ”,
‘component’ => buddypress()->groups->id,
‘type’ => false,
‘item_id’ => false,
‘secondary_item_id’ => false,
‘recorded_time’ => bp_core_current_time(),
‘hide_sitewide’ => $hide_sitewide
) );

return bp_activity_add( $r );
}

i have tried changing the $hide_sitewide = false; to $hide_sitewide = true;
but this doesnt work properly.

Hi shanebp

I have not installed xProfile. i’m using BuddyPress out-of-the-box sort of, i’ve bought a theme called Sweet Date, through that i have installed BuddyPress.

I have checked every table in the database, nothing says anything about profile in any way.

All the best

Thanks for your reply Henry 🙂

I can’t find anything that looks like that in the database, and when going through the table names, there isn’t anything that sounds like having something to do with xProfile ?

I need to find the ID of the fields, so i can use them with BuddyPress Profile Progression “bppp_progression_block($user_id)”.

All the best
Carsten

Wow. Just installed Buddypress and it complements nicely with BBpress.

oooops… I got confused. It is BBpress not Buddypress plugin that I have installed.

I tried to create a shortcode to show the join/leave button using the buddypress-functions but can’t make it to work… 🙁
What am I doing wrong?

I would like a shortcode like this :

[groupbutton name=”party1″]

I tried with this code for a join button only at first:

add_shortcode( 'groupbutton', 'groupbutton_check_shortcode' );

function groupbutton_check_shortcode( $attr ) {

	extract( shortcode_atts( array( 'name' => 'read' ), $attr ) );

	$current_group_id = BP_Groups_Group::get_id_from_slug($name);
	$group = groups_get_group( array( 'group_id' => $current_group_id ) );     
		if(bp_loggedin_user_id()) {
			if( 'public' == $group->status ) {
				echo '<a id="group-' . esc_attr( $current_group_id ) . '" class="join-group" rel="join" title="' . __( 'Join Group', 'buddypress' ) . '" href="' . wp_nonce_url( bp_get_group_permalink( $group ) . 'join', 'groups_join_group' ) . '">' . __( 'Join Group', 'buddypress' ) . '</a>';
			}
		}
}

I am not a developer at all so I dont understand everything but I am trying… :/
Cant figure what I am doing wrong… and why it does not display anything at all.

Thank you for your help and sorry for my bad english 🙂

PS: I would like to use all cases of buttons like here on the buddypress-functions.php:

function bp_legacy_theme_ajax_joinleave_group() {
	// Bail if not a POST action
	if ( 'POST' !== strtoupper( $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] ) )
		return;

	// Cast gid as integer
	$group_id = (int) $_POST['gid'];

	if ( groups_is_user_banned( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $group_id ) )
		return;

	if ( ! $group = groups_get_group( array( 'group_id' => $group_id ) ) )
		return;

	if ( ! groups_is_user_member( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $group->id ) ) {
		if ( 'public' == $group->status ) {
			check_ajax_referer( 'groups_join_group' );

			if ( ! groups_join_group( $group->id ) ) {
				_e( 'Error joining group', 'buddypress' );
			} else {
				echo '<a id="group-' . esc_attr( $group->id ) . '" class="leave-group" rel="leave" title="' . __( 'Leave Group', 'buddypress' ) . '" href="' . wp_nonce_url( bp_get_group_permalink( $group ) . 'leave-group', 'groups_leave_group' ) . '">' . __( 'Leave Group', 'buddypress' ) . '</a>';
			}

		} elseif ( 'private' == $group->status ) {

			// If the user has already been invited, then this is
			// an Accept Invitation button
			if ( groups_check_user_has_invite( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $group->id ) ) {
				check_ajax_referer( 'groups_accept_invite' );

				if ( ! groups_accept_invite( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $group->id ) ) {
					_e( 'Error requesting membership', 'buddypress' );
				} else {
					echo '<a id="group-' . esc_attr( $group->id ) . '" class="leave-group" rel="leave" title="' . __( 'Leave Group', 'buddypress' ) . '" href="' . wp_nonce_url( bp_get_group_permalink( $group ) . 'leave-group', 'groups_leave_group' ) . '">' . __( 'Leave Group', 'buddypress' ) . '</a>';
				}

			// Otherwise, it's a Request Membership button
			} else {
				check_ajax_referer( 'groups_request_membership' );

				if ( ! groups_send_membership_request( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $group->id ) ) {
					_e( 'Error requesting membership', 'buddypress' );
				} else {
					echo '<a id="group-' . esc_attr( $group->id ) . '" class="membership-requested" rel="membership-requested" title="' . __( 'Membership Requested', 'buddypress' ) . '" href="' . bp_get_group_permalink( $group ) . '">' . __( 'Membership Requested', 'buddypress' ) . '</a>';
				}
			}
		}

	} else {
		check_ajax_referer( 'groups_leave_group' );

		if ( ! groups_leave_group( $group->id ) ) {
			_e( 'Error leaving group', 'buddypress' );
		} elseif ( 'public' == $group->status ) {
			echo '<a id="group-' . esc_attr( $group->id ) . '" class="join-group" rel="join" title="' . __( 'Join Group', 'buddypress' ) . '" href="' . wp_nonce_url( bp_get_group_permalink( $group ) . 'join', 'groups_join_group' ) . '">' . __( 'Join Group', 'buddypress' ) . '</a>';
		} elseif ( 'private' == $group->status ) {
			echo '<a id="group-' . esc_attr( $group->id ) . '" class="request-membership" rel="join" title="' . __( 'Request Membership', 'buddypress' ) . '" href="' . wp_nonce_url( bp_get_group_permalink( $group ) . 'request-membership', 'groups_send_membership_request' ) . '">' . __( 'Request Membership', 'buddypress' ) . '</a>';
		}
	}

	exit;
}

/**

 */
function bp_legacy_theme_ajax_close_notice() {
	// Bail if not a POST action
	if ( 'POST' !== strtoupper( $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] ) )
		return;

	if ( ! isset( $_POST['notice_id'] ) ) {
		echo "-1<div id='message' class='error'><p>" . __( 'There was a problem closing the notice.', 'buddypress' ) . '</p></div>';

	} else {
		$user_id      = get_current_user_id();
		$notice_ids   = bp_get_user_meta( $user_id, 'closed_notices', true );
		$notice_ids[] = (int) $_POST['notice_id'];

		bp_update_user_meta( $user_id, 'closed_notices', $notice_ids );
	}

	exit;
}

After snooping around I can see that the tables for the profile fields are created in profile-loop.php and bp_the_profile_field_value is defined in bp-xprofile-template.php I’m not sure about editing these files though…

I can’t seem to find the file that directs the items in a profile field to be separated by a comma, however I did find this topic: bp_the_profile_field_value and separating values

Instead of separating the items in the <td class="data"><?php bp_the_profile_field_value(); ?></td> by commas, I want to make them into an un-ordered list.

Any thoughts on how?

Ok, set up a throw-away account.

URL: http://slamfans.com/wp/members/demouser01/
Login: demouser01
Pass: demo123

On that demouser01 profile page, you should see where the Achievements link is forced to a second line but it’s still following the CSS positioning. If you visit another member page, you don’t see that error. I’m assuming that’s because you don’t see the Notifications link on other members profiles.

I’m trying to remember how I did it on another Buddypress site where I was able to force all of the plugin links, like Achievements, into a second line so that the first line remains with all of the default links. I did that about 2-3 years ago and that since has since floated away into the aether. So dunno if it’s even possible anymore with recent changes to Buddypress.

Hope there’s a solution to be had. (But thinking about it, it would be awesome if there was a plugin that could me made for custom WP themes that would allow you to position links in the order and places you’d like.)

Thanks!

@mercime Thanks, I’ve seen that plugin (I did extensive searching online before I posted my question). It doesn’t seem to do what I want it to do – ie for buddypress users to set up multiple stores.

It seems like there is only one store and it shows feeds of what the users are buying, product groups, etc?
