BuddyPress.org

@shanebp: ok,
i changed “bp_moderate” to “create_users” at line 29 in compose.php
as I set this for the trainer role too:

<?php if ( bp_current_user_can( 'create_users' ) ) : ?>
		<p><label for="send-notice"><input type="checkbox" id="send-notice" name="send-notice" value="1" /> <?php _e( "This is a notice to all users.", "buddypress" ); ?></label></p>
	<?php endif; ?>

The changes works and the option field “send a notice to all users” displays also for trainers with capability “create_users”.

BUT they can’t send notices at all/ still miss the capability and also don’t have the “notices” menu in the buddypress profil.
An Error Message appears when they try to send message as site wide notice: “Notice was not created. Please try again.”

What else do I have to change? I looked at other php files around there but didn’t find a solution. Can you help me out? Thx!

This is what I changed in functions.php. It was do to with adding subnav items, removing subnav items and renaming some of them:

/* BP Add subnavigation on profile */

add_action('bp_setup_nav', 'bp_profile_submenu_profile' );
function bp_profile_submenu_profile() {
	global $bp;
	if(!is_user_logged_in()) return '';
	bp_core_new_subnav_item( array( 
		'name' => 'Seminar Bookings',
		'slug' => 'seminar-bookings', 
		'parent_url' => $bp->loggedin_user->domain . $bp->bp_nav['profile']['slug'] . '/' ,
		'parent_slug' => $bp->bp_nav['profile']['slug'],
		'position' => 20,
		'screen_function' => 'seminar_bookings'
		) 
	); 
}
function seminar_bookings() {
    add_action( 'bp_template_content', 'seminar_bookings_screen' );
    bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( 'bp_core_template_plugin', 'members/single/plugins' ) );
}

function seminar_bookings_screen() { 
    locate_template( array( 'buddypress/members/single/profile/seminar-bookings.php' ), true );
}

/* BP Remove unneeded subnav items */
function remove_bp_subnav_items() {
	global $bp;
	bp_core_remove_subnav_item('profile','change-avatar');
	bp_core_remove_subnav_item('profile','change-cover-image');
}

add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'remove_bp_subnav_items');

/* BP Rename subnav items */
function rename_bp_subnav_items(){
	global $bp;
	$bp->bp_options_nav['profile']['edit']['name'] = 'Edit Profile';
	$bp->bp_options_nav['profile']['public']['name'] = 'View Profile';
}
add_action('bp_setup_nav', 'rename_bp_subnav_items', 201);

The only time I had mentioned ‘position’ was when setting up a new subnav item.

It’s working now but the priority didn’t change anything. I’m not sure why it’s working now. I did figured out how to turn some of the tabs off courtesy of this site. However I still can’t find a way to add my own tab named “characters”. Maybe I just have to make a copy of a tab, change the name and then link it to the the page I want. If I find out how, I will let you know.

Thanks Henry!

is here anybody who knows where buddypress established the topmenu?
if i check the to different sites with my inspector tool, i can see he loads the mainmenu and not the topmenu. So i want to know in which php.file buddypress establish the topmenu.

on the sites where it shows up the right topbar it looks like…

<div class=”social-header header-color”>
<div class=”container”>
<div class=”top-bar”>
<div id=”top-social” class=”col-sm-12 col-md-5 no-padd”> </div>
<div class=”top-menu col-sm-12 col-md-7 no-padd”>
<ul id=”menu-topmenu” class=””>

and on the other sites, where i have the wrong menu….

<div class=”social-header header-color”>
<div class=”container”>
<div class=”top-bar”>
<div id=”top-social” class=”col-sm-12 col-md-5 no-padd”> </div>
<div class=”top-menu col-sm-12 col-md-7 no-padd”>
<ul id=”menu-mainmenu” class=””>

so there must be any code from buddpypress which put here the mainmenu.

Did anyone know where i can change that part of code?

Thanks for your help, but its not the solution.

My TopMenu got the content you see on that screen.

http://www.pic-upload.de/view-28637544/Top_normal.jpg.html

I try to explain my problem better.

The TopMenu works when the Buddypress Plugin is deactivated. Its on all Sites that Menu I want to have.
After I activate the Plugin on some of the sites(Buddypress specific sites) changes the TopMenu and show the content from the NavigationBar.

So I think there is a piece of code in any PHP-File which overwrites my TopMenu.

Any ideas???

Note that this doesn’t just change tabs in groups, but in the profile as well. I had some issues ‘fitting’ in some words without making the text too small or resorting to wrapping the word (another CSS rule); so instead I used poedit to change the menu text.

You can read about how to do that here: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/customizing/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

@djteveb,

Thanks for responding.

Re: Pretty Permalinks
I think I was getting mixed up with pretty urls at my smf forum which were a disaster. When I moved my blog I had to change embedded links and that was a nightmare and I was thinking it was due to pretty permalinks since ?I had a nightmare changing links at the forum as well. But my blog does use pretty permalinks and I have them set up on this other WP install as well.

I have just disabled all plugins–checking in between deactivations occasionally. I deactivated Simple:Press last and before that the logout link was still going to the forum index and now it just goes to the members page which is still acting as the front/home page even though I have the page titled HOME selected as being the front page–I checked this again after deactivating all the other plugins.

But partway through I did notice a message only on the members page shown as a small pop-up ONLY when I click chrome in my footer bar and see all the open window options. When I choose to view the wondow in full the message disappears.

<br/> <b>Warning</b>:strstr() [<ahref=’function.strstr’>function.strstr ]: Empty delimiter in <b>/home/…wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-filters.php</b> on line <b>781</b> Members | – Google Chrome

I had to take a screen shot of it just to have enough time to read it because the pop-up didn’t stay very long and I had to type it manually here, so I might have messed up the spacing.

The activity, profile, notifications and settings links on the menu go to the same file not found message as before.

My next step will be to uninstall and reinstall through cpanel or ftp. But first I’ll wait and see if anyone else has ideas and come back to it tomorrow.

I just add that I could unset profile public tab:

/* remove subtabs*/
function remove_submenu_item() {
    bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'settings', 'profile' );
bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'profile', 'public' );
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'remove_submenu_item', 100 );

But I need to change the Profile landing subnav to avoid 404 page.

I found this piece of code but this only for main tab.

/**
 * Change BuddyPress default Members landing tab.
 */
define('BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'profile' );

Thanks Hugo. I found your article on companion styles, but the only thing I found on deregulating the new styles was:

function dequeue_bp_twentyfifteen() {
wp_dequeue_style(‘bp-twentyfifteen’);
}
add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘dequeue_bp_twentyfifteen’);

However I’m not using a twentysomething theme.

The current default profile menu runs horizontal across the page

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0PCT5EGd34SN0JIQzdJNWswVEU/edit?usp=drivesdk

But what I’d like is for the profile menu to run vertically down the page under the profile pic (like it does on the Buddypress site itself)

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0PCT5EGd34STnhqYnM4NXZSVDQ/edit?usp=drivesdk

Sorry if my pics are not that clear.

Do you still suggest the dequeue code in the function file as the approach I should follow? And if so, should I change the references to be for the theme I’m using instead of 2015?

IF not, is there some other code I should use to restore the old profile template format?

Thanks Hugo!

Thanks dan, I have the all activity on the specific page, but I wanted it in my profile. i ended up seeing this link on buddydev and it’s exactly what I need it to do http://buddydev.com/buddypress/show-buddypress-communitysitewide-activity-on-user-profile/ , I just wish I knew how to default it to that link when clicking on the activity link.

When i hit the activity link, it goes to my personal activity instead of the “all activity” tab. Could you direct me in how I could change the default sub menu tab in activity.

Thanks for your help! Have a wonderful independence day!

Ok since you are my godsend I hate the activity page.. How do I edit the buddypress menu to remove the page from the menu? Matter of fact how do I change the order of the items in the menu? You are the man remember that always

So what appears to be happening is that the Buddybar adopts the slug changes immediately (I’ve just removed the display:none CSS for the main nav tabs on Buddybar to check because I don’t use it).

But the top menu (created via the Menus in WP Dashboard) is where the tabs are disappearing due to the slug changes. Tried with define ( 'BP_MESSAGES_SLUG', 'notes' ); to confirm it wasn’t an isolated effect. All is fine there now though, they just need replacing into the menu via the WP Dash once the slug has been changed and then they appear again.

Are the slugs of subnav tabs changed using the define code too? I haven’t come across it.

Out of interest, have I misunderstood this link where it says the various defines at the bottom are deprecated, or is it just in need of updating? :

Changing Internal Configuration Settings

Hi @bewitchingfiction,

I tried it on some of the default WordPress themes and couldn’t get it to work… and it no-longer works on the previous theme used two years ago when I first configured BuddyPress on our site.

My suggested work-around for you until someone is able to get it going again would be to create a password-protected or private page in WordPress for your mods to chat via the comments function. If you use a plugin that allows menu items to only be shown to mods, then no one will know the page even exists.

I use Nav Menu Roles to manage the visibility of menu items on my site. Unfortunately, it’s not compatible with my theme’s menu… so every time I want to add or change a menu item’s visibility, I have to change to another theme to use it , then change back. Clumsy, but it works! https://wordpress.org/plugins/nav-menu-roles/screenshots/
