Hello,
i hope someone can help me because i am driving myself crazy at this point. im fairly new to wordpress and thought that i would give it a shot to try and have the themes custom post “video” show up in the activity stream as well as merge their comments. finding this link in the codex, https://codex.buddypress.org/plugindev/post-types-activities/

i managed to have this in my bp-custom.php

 function customize_page_tracking_args() {
 
    if ( ! bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) {
        return;
    }
 
    add_post_type_support( 'video', 'buddypress-activity' );
 
   
    bp_activity_set_post_type_tracking_args( 'video', array(
        'action_id'                         => 'new_video',
        'bp_activity_admin_filter'          => __( 'Published a new video', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_front_filter'          => __( 'Video', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_post'              => __( '%1$s posted a new <a href="%2$s">video</a>', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_post_ms'           => __( '%1$s posted a new <a href="%2$s">video</a>, on the site %3$s', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'contexts'                          => array( 'activity', 'member' ),
        'comment_action_id'                 => 'new_video_comment',
        'bp_activity_comments_admin_filter' => __( 'Commented a video', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_comments_front_filter' => __( 'Video Comments', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_comment'           => __( '%1$s commented on the <a href="%2$s">video</a>', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_comment_ms'        => __( '%1$s commented on the <a href="%2$s">video</a>, on the site %3$s', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'position'                          => 100,
    ) );
    
}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'customize_page_tracking_args' );

now only some of the activity shows up as there is no thumbnail image or a comment button. i might have misunderstood but i thought this would be all i needed. also i have alread enabled site tracking, indexing and allowed comments everywhere.

here is the themes cpt registration where var $post_type = ‘video’;:

	function register() {
		    
		  
			register_post_type( $this->post_type, array(
				'labels' => array(
					'name' => __('Videos', 'themify'),
					'singular_name' => __('Video', 'themify'),
					'add_new' => __( 'Add New', 'themify' ),
					'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Video', 'themify' ),
					'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Video', 'themify' ),
					'new_item' => __( 'New Video', 'themify' ),
					'view_item' => __( 'View Video', 'themify' ),
					'search_items' => __( 'Search Videos', 'themify' ),
					'not_found' => __( 'No Videos found', 'themify' ),
					'not_found_in_trash' => __( 'No Videos found in Trash', 'themify' ),
					'menu_name' => __( 'Videos', 'themify' ),
				),
				'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'custom-fields', 'excerpt', 'comments'),
				'hierarchical' => false,
				'public' => true,
				'exclude_from_search' => false,
				'query_var' => true,
				'can_export' => true,
				'capability_type' => 'post',
				'has_archive' => 'video-archive',
				'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-format-video',
				

"taxonomies"=>array("category"),
			));
			register_taxonomy( $this->tax, array( $this->post_type ), array(
				'labels' => array(
					'name' => __( 'Video Categories', 'themify' ),
					'singular_name' => __( 'Video Categories', 'themify' ),
				),
				'public' => true,
				'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
				'show_ui' => true,
				'show_tagcloud' => true,
				'hierarchical' => true,
				'rewrite' => true,
				'query_var' => true,
			));
			register_taxonomy( $this->tag, array( $this->post_type ), array(
				'labels' => array(
					'name' => __( 'Video Tags', 'themify' ),
					'singular_name' => __( 'Video Tags', 'themify' ),
				),
				'public' => true,
				'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
				'show_ui' => true,
				'show_tagcloud' => true,
				'hierarchical' => false,
				'rewrite' => true,
				'query_var' => true,
			));
			if ( is_admin() ) {
				add_filter('manage_edit-'.$this->tax.'_columns', array( $this, 'taxonomy_header' ), 10, 2);
				add_filter('manage_'.$this->tax.'_custom_column', array( $this, 'taxonomy_column_id' ), 10, 3);

				add_filter('manage_edit-'.$this->tag.'_columns', array( $this, 'taxonomy_header' ), 10, 2);
				add_filter('manage_'.$this->tag.'_custom_column', array( $this, 'taxonomy_column_id' ), 10, 3);
			}
		}

Hi

I’m using buddypress with BP-Nouveau and I’ve noticed that when I disable the custom front page for groups, the search function in the directory is not working, while is working if the custom front page is enabled. It is a bug? or there is another way to make it to work?
I’ ve disabled all the plugins and I have no custom code, but kept BP-Nouvau and ocean wp theme and still it does not work. Unfortunately the only difference is that the “enabled/disabled custom front pages for groups” determines whether the search works or not.
When I inspect the “search” in the activity group page the references are different dipending on the enabling of the Custom front pages for groups.
Here is a link that shows which search buttons do not work : https://www.x-simili.it/booking/

Thank you so much

Hello,

actually i’m trying to customize the activity form by adding some combo-boxes under the textarea (only for the homepage)

i’m using BuddyPress 6.3.0

This is the first time i’m using (WordPress,PHP,BuddyPress) so could you please help me 🙂

Theme – Cera
I am still struggling to figure out how to separate the activity streams. I just want each member to have their own activity stream.
Let me explain…
I have an activity stream in each members profile page already but..they all share the same feed.
I want the activity feeds to be separate.
If I post in members page A then post in members page B – you will have to go to both members pages to see each post. Example- A post stays in A members page
Please someone help
I want to learn how to customize this myself.

Under the users profile picture on their profile page the latest post appears. Why?? I want to remove this. Every time I post a comment in the activity stream under my profile picture on my profile page the comment appears. The creators of my theme told me they do not help with customization.

I have tried using this CSS code below but it only got rid of the time stamp not the actual latest message.

You can use custom CSS to hide it
body.my-activity div#latest-update {
display: none;
}

Under the users profile picture on their profile page the latest post appears. Why?? I want to remove this. Every time I post a comment in the activity stream under my profile picture on my profile page the comment appears. The creators of my theme told me they do not help with customization.

Hello everyone, my first post here in need of assistance, hope you can help me out.

My “home” page is the register page for users without login.
If they are logged in, I want to redirect them to the activity page. Like this example: http://localhost/website/members/USERNAME

I am using this code for the redirect in bp-custom.php

<?php
    function bbg_bp_loggedin_register_page_redirect_to( $redirect_to ) {
    if ( bp_is_component_front_page( 'register' ) )
        $redirect_to = bp_get_root_domain() . '/members/USERNAME_HERE';

    return $redirect_to;
}
add_filter( 'bp_loggedin_register_page_redirect_to', 'bbg_bp_loggedin_register_page_redirect_to' );
?>

This is not working because I don’t know how to add the logged in username to the redirect after /members/USERNAME_HERE

Thank you in advance,

MKTGP

Got hit with a curveball when using multisite and putting activity page as static front page.

I’m seeing the following:

On a single install, when the activity page is set as the front page, the Edit Page link in the admin bar appears normally.

On multisite, when the activity page is set as the front page on the main site, the Edit Page link in the admin bar goes away.

Why is this? I can create back a custom admin_bar_menu Edit Page link for Activity Page on Front but would like to figure out why it dissappears in the first place.
