BuddyPress.org

Did do that,

I also enabled below for pages, but pages dont show up.

// Add custom post type to activity record
add_filter ( ‘bp_blogs_record_post_post_types’, ‘activity_publish_custom_post_types’,1,1 );
// Add custom post type comments to activity record
add_filter ( ‘bp_blogs_record_comment_post_types’, ‘activity_publish_custom_post_types’,1,1 );

function activity_publish_custom_post_types( $post_types ) {
// add any custom post-type here
$post_types[] = ‘page’;
return $post_types;
}

Hey Everyone,

I still haven’t found out how to save edits in chrome inspector or how to customize my wall more…BUT I did find out how to do what was most important to me, which is change the text ‘Site-Wide Activity’ on the activity stream page. I found the solution here on a forum through a google search. Unfortunately I was on a work computer and left before copying the link and now of course I can’t find that forum anymore. Thank god I wrote it down!

Anywho, you find it in: wp-content>plugins>buddypress>bp-activity/bp-activity-loader.php and its toward the top the in $GLOBAL array.

Thanks to the stranger who found this!

And any help on how to design or what files to mess with to play the design of the activity stream is greatly appreciated!

Hi.. thank you to keep guiding me.
I don’t know why those code for single groups page doesn’t working in my site.

Then I tried to modify nav tab in single members page those can working good.
This what I have in bp-custom.php:

<?php
function edit_tabs_options() {
    global $bp;
// MODIFY GROUP TABS
$bp->bp_options_nav['groups']['home']['name'] = 'Group Activity'; //NOT WORK
$bp->bp_nav['groups']['home']['name'] = 'Member Activity 2'; //NOT WORK

//MODIFY MEMBERS TABS
$bp->bp_nav['home']['name'] = 'Member Activity'; //IT'S WORK
bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'forums' ); //IT'S WORK
bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'profile', 'change-avatar' ); //IT'S WORK

}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'edit_tabs_options' );
?>

Last try on fresh install wp + bp with default theme. I will let you know if those code works or not.

Thanks for your help with this but I am still not sure what I need to do. The function I posted was just an example that I had found from an earlier forum, I do not need to add videos and pictures to the activity stream.

I need to add details of a custom post type every time a custom form is submitted from the frontend by a user. The custom post type is “Files”. Below is a class for the form and it is within the CMB (custom meta boxes) plugin folder. Can you advise on how to implement the code to record these forms posts in the activity stream?

class uploadForm {

    // Set prefix
    public $prefix = '_cmb_'; 

    /**
     * Construct the class.
     */
    public function __construct() {
        add_filter( 'cmb_meta_boxes', array( $this, 'cmb_metaboxes' ) );
        add_shortcode( 'cmb-form', array( $this, 'do_frontend_form' ) );
        add_action( 'init', array( $this, 'initialize_cmb_meta_boxes' ), 9 );
       /* add_action( 'cmb_save_post_fields', array( $this, 'save_fields' ), 10, 4 );*/
        add_action( 'save_post', array( $this, 'save_fields' ), 10, 4 );
       /*add_filter( 'bp_blogs_record_comment_post_types', 'add_activity' );   IS THIS CORRECT?  */ 
    }

    /**
     * Define the metabox and field configurations.
     */
    public function cmb_metaboxes( array $meta_boxes ) {

        /**
         * Metabox for the "Memorials" front-end submission form
         */
        $meta_boxes['upload_files_metabox'] = array(
            'id'         => 'files',

Thanks danbp,

You think Buddypress is the right way to go ??

With point 2 i mean, that at the start of each month every user has to upload a new picture.
So this will be custom development i guess!

We are only going to use the member (wall)pages, kinda like a facebook wall. Is it possible to somehow get the elements like activity, photo’s, documents and messages on 1 page without the tabs?
