BuddyPress.org

Hello,

I have both bbPress and BuddyPress installed and I really like the prospects. However, I signed my husband up to be a new user. I was at that time logged into my account in Safari and then I went to Chrome and logged in under his name.

What I found was that he had access to the activities and the messaging but he could not see the forums that were created by me when I was in my account. I am an administrator of course. I am thinking that there is some type of permission that I should be giving new subscribers.

The other thought is that maybe there is a main forum page that has all of the forums created by all users that should be the link on the main menu and that this current page is the one that only shows what that particular user has contributed.

What I want is to have a link in the main menu that takes them to the full list of forum topics and that non-subscribers can see too. Unless they are members they cannot contribute but as members they can.

Please advise.

hello. I am new to buddypress. I just added the plugin to my site https://www.playercoachconnect.com
I cannot see a place to upload a profile picture. The option is available to delete. Where is the upload photo button at?

This may be a very simple problem, but I’m trying to add a simple sidebar to a buddypress group page by inserting HTML and inline CSS. It’s not working at the moment, the sidebar doesn’t display. Btw, I/we are doing this because were creating some very quick prototypes that we’re going to test. We don’t want to add anything to the stylesheet until we get feedback on our variations.

The code is:
<div style=”width: 270px; float: right; border:1px solid #ddd; padding: 20px 25px 0px 25px;”>
Some text to test with
</div>

Weirdly, if I add the code above TWICE one of them displays. Maybe this is a WordPress and not buddy press issue.

Hi,
I have tried several times to install BuddyPress 2.1.1 on a fresh install of WordPress 4.1, but I get all the time after activation of the BuddyPress plugin error:
503 Service Unavailable. The server is temporarily busy, try again later!
I have no other plugins installed.

WordPress Version 4.1
BuddyPress Version Version 2.1.1

I am trying to create a group activity feed everytime a new custom post type post is created.

add_action('bp_activity_before_save', 'rewards_activity_content', 3);

function rewards_activity_content($activity){
    global $post;
    global $bp;

       //i have some working code here

        $bp->groups->current_group = groups_get_group( array( 'group_id' => $group_id ) );

        $groups_activity_action  = sprintf( __( '%1$s posted a reward %2$s in the group %3$s', 'buddypress'), bp_core_get_userlink( $user_id ),'<a href="' . $post_permalink . '">' . $post->post_title . '</a>' ,'<a href="' . bp_get_group_permalink( $bp->groups->current_group ) . '">' . esc_attr( $bp->groups->current_group->name ) . '</a>' );

        $groups_args = array(
            'action'            => apply_filters( 'groups_activity_new_update_action',  $groups_activity_action  ),
            'content'           => apply_filters( 'groups_activity_new_update_content', $activity_content ),
            'component'         => 'groups',
            'type'              => 'activity_update',
            'primary_link'      => $post_permalink,
            'secondary_item_id' => $post_id,
            'item_id'           => $group_id,
            'user_id'           => $user_id,
        );

do_action( 'bp_activity_add', $groups_args ); //not working

}

all of the values within the $group array is being populated its just the last do_action is not working. I also tried doing groups_record_activity.

I have also tried to pass through these arguements through a custom action to bp_activity_add and its still not working any help would be grateful.

WordPress Version 4.1
BuddyPress Version Version 2.1.1

I have created a custom field called location under a custom post type called rewards.
I have also created groups which have these location names.

I want to be able to create a group activity stream whenever a user posts a new reward and have been trying hours to get this to work.

$group_id = (int) BP_Groups_Group::group_exists($group_name); //working

I am using a custom bp_activity_before_save action when the post type is reward. Could you please tell me how I can change the action as such : –

  $activity_group_action = sprintf( __( '%1$s has created a new reward %2$s in the group  %3$s :  %5$s', 'buddypress'), bp_core_get_userlink( $user_id ), '<a href="' . $post_permalink . '">' . $post->post_title . '</a>','<a href="' . bp_get_group_permalink( $group_id ) . '">' .$group_id .": ". esc_attr( bp_get_group_name( $group_id ) ) . '</a>' );
        

and then add this to the groups activity feed whenever a new reward post is created whereby the location name custom field matches with the groups name. I tried using the bp_activity_add function but its not working

Thank you
