BuddyPress.org

I think I’ve got it..

<div class="three columns">
	<?php bp_get_template_part( 'members/single/messages/messages-loop' ); ?>
</div>

<div class="five columns">
	<div class="msg-content-wrap">
	<?php
	switch ( bp_current_action() ) :
	
	// Single Message View
	case 'view' :
		bp_get_template_part( 'members/single/messages/single' );
	break;
		
	// Compose
	case 'compose' :
		bp_get_template_part( 'members/single/messages/compose' );
	break;
		
	// Sitewide Notices
	case 'notices' :
		do_action( 'bp_before_member_messages_content' ); ?>
		<?php bp_get_template_part( 'members/single/messages/notices-loop' ); ?>
		<?php do_action( 'bp_after_member_messages_content' );
	break;	
	// Any other
	default :
		bp_get_template_part( 'members/single/plugins' );
	break;
	endswitch; ?>
</div>

The only thing I still have to do is protect the column 3 – messages-loop.php from showing to the public or all logged_in users.

!Please do not use this code on Live BuddyPress sites!

Thanks for sharing @modernlooper — I will check it out on how to contribute.
I think there could be room made at Make.Wordpress.org to encourage BuddyPress Community Engagement & Exposure because I see discussion merely on metadata group or other adhoc groups.

it was a bp default line that was to be taking out…here is the thread https://buddypress.org/support/topic/notifications-tab-seems-to-break-site/

@johnjamesjacoby – thanks for your reply.

Mate, I have no other Plugins active only Buddypress and am using theme twenty fourteen. I have re-installed wordpress, buddypress (twice now) – enabled the ‘anyone can register’ in the settings. I’m just dumbfounded.

It must be something ridiculously obvious that I’m missing – or something to do with my local development environment with MAMP. But hey, I’m guessing.

Okay now. The fix I used.
FTP and renamed the offending plugin.
Dashboard came back. Deleted the offending plugin and files, which worked surprisingly
Activated new BuddyPress version.
Members, Grouyps, Activity back…Whew!
Now to re back up the site..
wp 3.8

PLEASE HELP!!!!! I’ve been at this for 2 days now and I still can’t get Buddypress to register a single User…I have re-installed WordPress, Re-installed Buddypress – all I need to do to get going is just create 1 User!!!!!

Still kind of confused. Sorry for the delay between responses. I’ll be more responsive now.

Where should I use the type=alphabetical now?
Here’s my code again:

<?php

I am still having this problem and REALLY need a solution. I’m not a developer so ca anyone walk me through what I need to do?

so far I have added this to my functions.php

// to exclude only defined roles in the Buddypress Members LOOP

function exclude_by_role($exclude_roles) {

$memberArray = array();

if (bp_has_members()) :
while (bp_members()) : bp_the_member();
$user = new WP_User( bp_get_member_user_id() );
$user_role = $user->roles[0];
foreach ($exclude_roles as $exclude_role) {
if ($exclude_role==$user_role) {
array_push($memberArray, $user->ID);
break;
}
}
endwhile;
endif;

$theExcludeString=implode(",",$memberArray);

return $theExcludeString;
}

Then added this to my member-loop.php

 
$excluded_roles = array ('administrator', 'author', 'subscriber'); // this can be any roles you have set up
	if (bp_has_members( 'exclude=' . exclude_by_role($excluded_roles) . '&' . bp_ajax_querystring( 'members' ) ) ) : 

Unfortunately, no luck. It is not excluding any of the three roles noted above.

Oh, and am using the latest WordPress and BuddyPress.

happy new year everybody.

Congratulations to us @mfmsw2youth. to get this solved.

@hnla. thanks for your contribution.

@buddypress newbies: Please ensure to put the code in your theme-child to keep the changes in the feature update.

And of cause finally the BOSS himself 🙂 @henrywright-1. Thank you very, very much for the great code. It worked greatly.
