Can anyone else think of any other snippets I can add to the bp-custom.php to block new posts in one specific blog showing up in the activity stream?

ie. My blog_id is 282 and I have tried the 2 codes above?

Ahh, thanks @nuprn1 – I have a bp-custom file, Im just being stupid. Just the numerical id to find. Thanks again.

@nuprn1 @mercime @boonebgorges

Thank you for leading me to the code to get to this… I basically just did a super-slight mod of Rich’s code. Here is what I used and I put it in the the bp-custom.php file in the plugins directory:

`<? function my_group_loop_activity_item() {

global $bp, $activities_template;

if ( !bp_is_active( ‘activity’ ) )

return;

if ( !bp_group_is_visible() )

return;

$show_hidden = false;

/* Group filtering */

$object = $bp->groups->id;

$primary_id = bp_get_group_id();

if ( ‘public’ != $bp->groups->current_group->status && groups_is_user_member( $bp->loggedin_user->id, bp_get_group_id() ) )

$show_hidden = true;

/* Note: any params used for filtering can be a single value, or multiple values comma separated. */

$defaults = array(

‘display_comments’ => false, // false for none, stream/threaded – show comments in the stream or threaded under items

‘sort’ => ‘DESC’, // sort DESC or ASC

‘page’ => 1, // which page to load

‘per_page’ => false, // number of items per page

‘max’ => 1, // max number to return

‘include’ => false, // pass an activity_id or string of ID’s comma separated

‘show_hidden’ => $show_hidden, // Show activity items that are hidden site-wide?

/* Filtering */

‘object’ => $object, // object to filter on e.g. groups, profile, status, friends

‘primary_id’ => $primary_id, // object ID to filter on e.g. a group_id or forum_id or blog_id etc.

‘action’ => ‘new_forum_topic’, // action to filter on e.g. activity_update, new_forum_post, profile_updated

‘secondary_id’ => false, // secondary object ID to filter on e.g. a post_id

/* Searching */

‘search_terms’ => false // specify terms to search on

);

$r = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults );
extract( $r );

$filter = array( ‘user_id’ => false, ‘object’ => $object, ‘action’ => $action, ‘primary_id’ => $primary_id, ‘secondary_id’ => $secondary_id );

$activities_template = new BP_Activity_Template( $page, $per_page, $max, $include, $sort, $filter, $search_terms, $display_comments, $show_hidden );

while ( bp_activities() ) : bp_the_activity(); ?>

<div class="item-descb" id="activity-“>

Latest Topic Activity in the Group:

<?php endwhile;

}

add_action( ‘bp_directory_groups_item’, ‘my_group_loop_activity_item’ );
?>`

I also added this to the default.css to give me a little more control of the output (changed the div in the original to match below):

` ul.item-list li div.item-descb {
margin: 10px 0 0 64px;
font-size: 11px;
color: #888;
width: 85%;
}
`

THANKS AGAIN! Here is a pict completed:

Yeah you probably shouldn’t visit the URL – its a live staging site and always changing. I only placed it above per forum etiquette. If you need examples of actual code or the actual php files themselves I can certainly provide.

(UPDATE: I’ve told the dev team to temporarily hault any activity so you should be able to see the fully rendered site at that URL and specifically note the pages aren’t changing).

When I switch to the original BP theme everything DOES work. But just to note, I don’t have the option of using that theme – it has to be my own custom theme.

Hi Roger (and everyone else!), i think i’m going somewhere now, but will need some extra input. hopefully the thread will be an additional useful example!

ok, this is where i am at: default theme with the ajax controllers at the top of the activity stream. in the activity folder of the child theme i have an index.php and activity-loop.php and and entry.php.

basically i’ve got a ‘private’ area with content accessible only to staff. for normal post/pages i have is an extra check based on a custom field for posts and the category for pages like the following and then based on the group membership i either show a message or the actual content:

http://pastebin.com/E4cnkwZS (top)

now, because the group is private, the BP stuff is not showing in the activity stream already, which is good, but the posts/pages bypass my checks and come up in the list of activities showing the actual content which should be private instead.

so, here is what i came up with so far. using the index.php i check the group membership and then load two different activity-loops:
http://pastebin.com/E4cnkwZS (bottom)

how would you exclude stuff? in the bp_has_activity function there is an ‘include’ option which allows to filter content, but not an ‘exclude’ one. it might be trivial to go around it, but not sure how. furthermore if you use the dropdown filter i have the impression that the arguments are passed dynamically resetting whatever is passed in the original query (like in your example and some i’ve tried using the same model).

i would very much appreciate any further suggestion! thanks

Hello,

Thanks you very much for helping me.

I’ve followed your link but I’ve got a problem.

(3) Keep your old BuddyPress user / group avatars
I don’t find my file bp-custom.php (at the following location : wp-content/plugins/buddypress/), should I create one or is it at an another location ? I’ve looked but I didn’t find anything.

(4) Redirect previous BuddyPress permalinks
I’ve edited my .htaccess but when I click on my name from a comment I’ve made on a post on the blog’s network or if I try to view an activity I end up on the same page : the Members Directory. I’m using the default buddypress theme on the blog.

Did I make a mistake on my .htaccess ?

Here’s the path of my installation, using Wamp :
http://127.0.0.1/themainblog/ – the main blog
http://127.0.0.1/themainblog/network/ – where buddypress is enabled.
http://127.0.0.1/themainblog/blogname/ – a blog from the network

Here’s how I edited my htaccess :

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /themainblog/
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

RedirectMatch 301 ^/members/(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1/themainblog/network/members/$1
RedirectMatch 301 ^/groups/(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1/themainblog/network/groups/$1
RedirectMatch 301 ^/blogs/(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1/themainblog/network/blogs/$1
RedirectMatch 301 ^/forums/(.*)$ http://127.0.0.1/themainblog/network/forums/$1

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ – [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
