BuddyPress.org

I am running WordPress MS 3.8.1 and Buddypress 1.9. I have created child themes so that I can make changes. I want to customize the layout of the profile page, to include removing some options and renaming other options.

I have been trying to use the plugin “Buddypress Custom Profile Menu”, but it currently appears to have issues.

Can someone direct me to the correct files and directory paths for what I need to modify? I can figure out the rest from there.

Thanks

Hey guys, so I’m trying to add Font Awesome icons to my navigation

I can do this on all pages but BuddyPress because the CSS class where the icon shortcode goes is locked, I don’t know how to get around this

Here’s a screenie:

Hi –

Are there any plugins or themes that are page builders that I can use to customize Buddypress pages? So that I don’t have to use a custom theme, I can build it myself.

For example, I’m looking for a wysiwig editor like the popular Visual Composer for WordPress or Headway Themes but for Buddypress, so I can move around and style the elements visually not through style.css.

For instance, I’m looking to resize the Buddypress member’s gravatar, add a border around it, change the order of the menu tabs on the user’s profile, add some custom fields, set up a sidebar containing profile details, enlarge the images on the Members page, etc.

I know I could do this in the child theme’s stylsheet but it’s way faster and more convenient for me to use a visual page editor.

Just curious..

Why the red part gets checked before the filter select menu can work ?

I’ve changed my menu a bit but for some reason the filter doesn’t work anymore and I’ve got the feeling I’m very close to the problem.

My new menu:

<nav class="item-list-tabs no-ajax nav-centered">
	<ul class="button-group activity-type-tabs">
		<li><a class="button" href="<?php bp_groups_directory_permalink(); ?>"><i class="fi fi-root-groups"></i></a></li>
		<li class="selected"><a class="button" href="<?php bp_group_permalink(); ?>"><i class="fi fi-root-groups"></i></a></li>
		<li><a class="button" href="<?php bp_group_permalink(); ?>members/">Abonnees</a></li>
		<li class="group-btn-select item-list-tabs no-ajax">
			<ul>
				<?php do_action( 'bp_group_activity_syndication_options' ); ?>
				<li id="activity-filter-select" class="last">
					<select id="activity-filter-by" class="button filter">
						<option value="-1">Alles</option>
						<option value="activity_update">Updates</option>
						<option value="joined_group">Abonnees</option>
						<?php do_action( 'bp_group_activity_filter_options' ); ?>
					</select>
				</li>
			</ul>
		</li>
		<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() && bp_group_is_member() ) : ?>
		<li><a class="button" href="<?php bp_group_permalink(); ?>send-invites/"><i class="fi fi-megaphone"></i></a></li>
		<?php endif; ?>
		<?php do_action( 'bp_group_options_nav' ); ?>
		<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() && bp_current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' ) ) : ?>
		<li><a class="button" href="<?php bp_group_permalink(); ?>admin/edit-details/"><i class="fi fi-wrench"></i></a></li>
		<?php endif; ?>
		<li><a class="button" href="<?php bp_group_activity_feed_link(); ?>" title="RSS feed"><i class="fi fi-rss"></i></a></li>
	</ul>
</nav>

Ajax-/JS code: ( changed div.activity-type-tabs to ul.activity-type-tabs )

	/* Activity filter select */
	jq('#activity-filter-select select').change( function() {
		var selected_tab = jq( 'ul.activity-type-tabs li.selected' );

		if ( !selected_tab.length )
			var scope = null;
		else
			var scope = selected_tab.attr('id').substr( 9, selected_tab.attr('id').length );

		var filter = jq(this).val();

		bp_activity_request(scope, filter);

		return false;
	});

I left all needed BuddyPress classes in play and for some reason it won’t filter. Only at Activity streams. Groups & Members index pages all filter nicely with almost the same menu.

Image to give an example of what the menu looks like:

Image of the error I get.

Can somebody help me out here?
It’s probably a little change in a line of code.

I’m running the current versions of wordpress, buddypress and bbpress forum plugin for buddypress and the basic woo commerce plugin. The server is with bluehost and it’s on “test” a subdomain. No files have been changed.

Initially I was getting a different error message when trying to update the group avatars (that went away when I selected avatars from the settings menu). I did mess around including reinstalling wordpress and the plugins above until I found out the reason….

Note: All plugins were up-to-date at the start

But, afterward this message below started. Any ideas what the issue is and how to rectify it, it still happens after all other plugins are deactivated.

thanks,

Wouldn’t it be nice if there was some sort of overwrite to all BuddyPress menu’s.

I mean those menu’s at the top of the Activity, Groups, Members and Profile pages, wouldn’t it be cool if they showed up on the WordPress Dashboard underneath Appearance > Menu.
Maybe that you can’t change the default links in the first place but you could easily reorder them by Drag&Drop, maybe even add custom link-items + CSS classes to those menu’s.

I think it would make BuddyPress very easy to use. I still think the Menu function in WordPress that was created in version 3.0 is one of the best and powerful features the CMS has.

The development is running the following versions of software:
WordPress v3.7.1
BuddyPress v1.8.1
Custom BuddyPress theme based on Genesis Framwework v2.0.1

I have the following code in my bp-custom.php file which I placed in the mu-plugins folder
add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘vm_setup_nav’ );

function vm_setup_nav() {
      global $bp;

      // Remove a menu item
      //$bp->bp_nav['activity'] = false;

      // Change name of menu item
      $bp->bp_nav['settings']['name'] = "Password & Cart Settings";

      // Change name of menu item
      $bp->bp_nav['groups']['name'] = "Circles";
}

It wasn’t working. I changed the plugin location from wp-content/mu-plugins to wp-content/plugins and it didn’t work there either. When I put this same code in the theme’s functions file, it works.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi, I am not entirely sure if this should be posted on the wordpress forums or here. I think that since this PHP script is using data in the buddypress registration page, that here is the place.

Anyway, I am trying to set up a website for my Minecraft Server that I have been hosting for the past few months. I am using the code below to only allow players with a premium Minecraft account to register on the website, in order to block spammers. The link in the code (http://www.minecraft.net/haspaid.jsp?user=) will print a boolean changing if the account name is valid or not. The name is put after the “=” and if it is valid, “true” will be printed, and if it isn’t valid “false” will be printed.

I am trying to make it that the name is checked before the account is made. What should happen is that the username is taken and checked on the Minecraft database, and allow the user to register if “true” is echoed, and if “false” is echoed, the registration will not be allowed to continue.

The issue is, that I am really not skilled in PHP at all, and I can’t find out why this code isn’t working. It makes no visible change to anything, and registration continues as if it wasn’t there. If anyone could give me a hand here, that would be great. Here is my Code.

<?php
/*
   Plugin Name: Minecraft Username Validator
   Description: Minecraft username Validation
   Version: 0.1
   Author: JeremyPark123999
*/

/* Register actions */
add_action('registration_errors', 'verify_mc_account', 10, 3);
add_action('admin_menu', 'add_mcval_options');

/* Check account on minecraft.net */
function verify_mc_account( $errors, $login, $email ) {
	//$user_info = get_userdata(1);
	$user_info = get_user_by('login', $login );
	$options = array(
        'timeout' => 5,
    );
    $mcacct = wp_remote_get('http://www.minecraft.net/haspaid.jsp?user='.$user_info->user_login);

    if ( $mcacct == 'false' ) {
        if ( $mcacct == 'false' ) {
            $errors->add('mc_error',__('<strong>ERROR:</strong> Minecraft account is invalid.'));
        } else {
            $errors->add('mc_error',__('<strong>ERROR:</strong> Unable to contact minecraft.net.'));
        }
    }
    return $errors;
}
/* Activation/Deactivation */
function set_mcval_options() {
    add_option('hide_me', 'false');
}

function unset_mcval_options() {
    delete_option('hide_me');
}

register_activation_hook(__FILE__, 'set_mcval_options');
register_deactivation_hook(__FILE__, 'unset_mcval_options');

/* Add admin menu */
function add_mcval_options() {
    if ( get_option('hide_me') != "true" ) {
        add_options_page('Minecraft Validator Options', 'Minecraft Validator', 8, 'mcval-options', 'mcval_options');
    }
}

/* Display options page */
function mcval_options() {
    ?>
<?php }

Thanks guys, keep it going like this!

When I started with BuddyPress years ago I really had a hard time getting trough all template logic, actions, filters and stuff like that to change some data-output.

Yesterday I started testing and building again upon Beta 1 (1.9) and I really like how easy you can target and print User-profile info into the member listing page.
At my screenshot I simply added a Gender profile field and targeted it by some CSS lines to make a visual difference.

Right now I have a very simple way to show if some profile is Male or Female.

I also added the ‘order by’ select option + search field to the menu to make it more compact.

First page almost done – a few more to go 🙂
