Better customisation options of the activity stream: ie to be able to define a set of “or” filters for content type, and who. So (with plugin support) I can define a feed to include things from “me or friends or followers” showing “topics and topic replies and posts and new users” (and ideally be able to have a permalink to this with no other fluff on display). The current activity feed selectors are a mess and don’t provide what most people want to see.

Should be nummer 1.

And I don’t even want lots of new features to the activity stream but first just an easy way to customize the default lay-out would be so much pleasant!

All BP pages are very easy to customize, move code around to give the page an unique feeling but when it comes to the activity stream the code is very fixed.

There are about 50-75 Premium BuddyPress themes online for sale and 99% of them have the same activity stream page-layout. While all those premium theme developers can do lots of customization to all other pages the activity stream is like Twitter’s Bootstrap to BuddyPress it always tells you it’s a BuddyPress website without looking at the code.

* A way to select which filters and views are available in activity/, and persistently set the default activity feed view (from the admin panel)

* live activity updates

* A reply by PM hook into bbpress

* Better options for users to self delete

* Improved management/rethink of the tabs on profile pages (because this rapidly piles up as you add in plugins) : “Activity Profile Messages Friends Following Followers Location Groups Blog Forums Events Gallery Settings Links” Is not viable for a one line menu bar – this is maybe a display issue, but…!

* be able to pass a function to the members loop, thats called to determine the display order (e.g. so I can easily order by City or age or any xprofile field)

Maybe these are already there, but these are the things that are bugging me as a non-expert dev right now…

Hi guys is the same if i wannainsert a list of all products uploaded by author in my site woocommerce + buddypress. Every users (subscriber) can upload a new products, I wanna display in the user buddypress profile a list with a link of all products published by author. Is Possible? Can help me to solve this problem? Ty in advance!

Sorry there was an error in the above code, that results in a no results dialog error for users who have no posts. You can download a bundled plugin by clicking here.

if ( !function_exists( 'add_action' ) ) {
	echo 'Hi there!  I\'m just a plugin, not much I can do when called directly.';
	exit;
}
define('TCH_PostsOnProfilesVersion', '0.1');
define('TCH_PostsOnProfilesVersion_PLUGIN_URL', plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ ));

add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'add_profileposts_tab', 100 );
function add_profileposts_tab() {
global $bp;
bp_core_new_nav_item( array(
'name' => 'My Posts',
'slug' => 'posts',
'screen_function' => 'bp_postsonprofile',
'default_subnav_slug' => 'My Posts', 
'position' => 25
)
);
// show feedback when 'Posts' tab is clicked
function bp_postsonprofile() {
add_action( 'bp_template_content', 'profile_screen_posts_show' );
bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( 'bp_core_template_plugin', 'members/single/plugins' ) );
}

function profile_screen_posts_show() {
$theuser = bp_displayed_user_id(); 
query_posts("author=$theuser" );
if ( have_posts() ) :
get_template_part( 'loop', 'archive' );
else: ?>

		

	    

OK went through the plugin and updated the code to function in current versions of buddy press, its a bit sloppy but it does work. Just place the below code in your bp-custom.php file and it will add a new tab to each users profile that displays the blog posts they have written. Display is based off of your archive.php file so it matches the theme.

//POSTS ON PROFILE STARTS HERE
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'add_profileposts_tab', 100 );
function add_profileposts_tab() {
global $bp;
bp_core_new_nav_item( array(
'name' => 'My Posts',
'slug' => 'posts',
'screen_function' => 'bp_postsonprofile',
'default_subnav_slug' => 'My Posts', 
'position' => 25
)
);
// show feedback when 'Posts' tab is clicked
function bp_postsonprofile() {
add_action( 'bp_template_content', 'profile_screen_posts_show' );
bp_core_load_template( apply_filters( 'bp_core_template_plugin', 'members/single/plugins' ) );
}

function profile_screen_posts_show() {
$theuser = bp_displayed_user_id(); 
query_posts("author=$theuser" );
get_template_part( 'loop', 'archive' ); //call your archive template

}

}

//POSTS ON PROFILE ENDS HERE

@funmi-omoba,

please open a new tread, this one is 3 years old, and give some details about your config (version, theme name) and what you want to do.

@opencode, thank you for sharing, but updating such old posts hasn’t much effect for most users. Also give some indication about BP version where your code will work on.

@udgang99 “create a new field in the members profile, where all the POSTS they have contributed with to the site, are displayed” plus post from the front-end

Introducing BuddyBlog: Allow Users to blog from their BuddyPress Profile

Hallo @talha8877

Excuse me, my English is not so good, unfortunately.

I used the plugin Cartpauj PM Plugin from Mingle, as I have found as yet no viable solution to the buttons (message etc) of the BuddyPress insertion into posts / Articels.

So now I turn off the message part of BuddyPress and linking all the Cartpauj PM, which works wonderfully, except out of BuddyPress. There does not work.

Of Cartpauj in single.php just the link:

<a href = "/ news / pmaction newmessage = & to = “> Send

. put But as I said, the link works in BuddyPress indeed, but does not with the member users, which I will write. Since I’m still looking for a solution. Evtentuell with: bp user id, funktioiert might not.

So who has a solution to integrate Cartpauj PM in buddybress, bring it on.

That´s it

Thank you

Hi Chouf,

Thanks for the response. Although I’m having hard time connecting the dots.
I’d already used
`bp_add_friend_button( $user_ids[‘users’][$i]->id ) ?>`

directly in my code but it didn’t return any results.
Do I need to use an action hook to display it in posts?

well that’s not the way it works at all when network activated some aspects of buddypress provide network wide functionality but the front end display is only as i say on the primary blog/site for instance you can use buddypress to give your users the ability to create their own sub sites (in a more user friendly fashion then wordpress itself provides alone) and any activity on the various sub sites will be displayed in the network wide activity feed which again only displays on the primary blog by default.

>a page where my users can be curators and have collections of custom posts

CPs that they created ? Or created by anyone ?

Usually a profile extension is used for this.

But you say ‘outside of buddypress’ so you mean a WP page… ?
Then, because you want it driven by activity_ids, write a custom query.
Use each activity_id to find the user_id in the activity table, look for posts by that member in the posts table and show the results in a loop.
Use 2 queries if you can’t write a JOIN.
