Do you mean comments from other pages?
Do you have ‘Blog & Forum Comments’ enabled on this page?
/wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-settings

Or do you mean ‘Updates’ made directly in the Activity stream?

@johnjamesjacoby,

2 is very appropriate: one for a site url, one for a screen shot… or max. 2 spam link 🙂
But for mods (only), it could be more depending the user problem, even if 2 seems to be ok in most case.

But the warning msg, what ever the allowed links will be, is important.

I published my answer and…nothing. So i first thinked i did something wrong, before i realized that it could be a new forum setting. Thought other user can think the same.

[danbp]

It seems that some publish rules where changed on the forum too.

I just tried to publish a topic answer containing 3 links, and it wasn’t accepted before i removed one.

This means that from now on, a topic cannot contain more than 2 links.

A warning message to users would be much appreciated, if this new rule is effectively applied.

@nimagh Please don’t copy posts to multiple forum categories.

You will need a developer to realise this site spec I suggest you post to the BP jobs board and leave a contact email.

[Hugo Ashmore]

@brent-havill while ‘we’ will help out as much as possible the forum is geared to help with specific BP issues, from what you have shown us in this thread you have a highly custom and specialist site in which BP plays a supporting role or perhaps a more involved role depending on what custom coding has been effected to tie BP into your course theme and supporting functions.

It is going to be close to impossible to help you in any really practical sense without direct access to the code & install, and in that respect and given the type of site you appear to be attempting to run you will need development support for this and any other issues that almost inevitably will arise (not meaning to be alarmist but sites do require attention from developers from time to time to ensure things run smoothly)

As for the BP notifications setting , enable that but understand what it does in enabling users to manage their member details from the front end and to set or unset a series of notification types they wish to receive – is this where things aren’t working for you? it’s hard to say but likely not, however we simply do not know what type of custom work may have been done to extend any default functionality.

[shanebp]

You’re looking at the templates that render the content for tabs.
But you want to remove tabs.
Because ‘groups’ may be the only tab available, you need to make ‘groups’ the default component.
You may need to add or remove one or more add_filter calls depending on your installation.
Try this in your bp-custom.php file:

define( 'BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'groups' );

function izzy_adjust_profile_nav() {
  if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
	add_filter('bp_get_displayed_user_nav_activity', 'izzy_profile_nav_remove', 10, 1 );
	add_filter('bp_get_displayed_user_nav_friends', 'izzy_profile_nav_remove', 10, 1 );
	add_filter('bp_get_displayed_user_nav_forums', 'izzy_profile_nav_remove', 10, 1 );	
	add_filter('bp_get_displayed_user_nav_xprofile', 'izzy_profile_nav_remove', 10, 1 );	
  }
}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'izzy_adjust_profile_nav' );

function izzy_profile_nav_remove($nav_array) { 
  $nav_array = '';
  return $nav_array;
}

[izzyian]

I think I may have found the navigation bar that has to do with users profiles location. Called home.php, in it I see some lines like :

<?php do_action( 'bp_before_member_body' );

  elseif ( bp_is_user_friends() ) :
	locate_template( array( 'members/single/friends.php'   ), true )

  elseif ( bp_is_user_forums() ) :
	locate_template( array( 'members/single/forums.php'    ), true );

So I see the tags “friends” and “forums”. I assume I have to make an If/else statement.

1.) I guess an example code of what I need help with would be

if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {

// SHOW FRIENDS TAB AND FOURMS TAB

<?php } else { ?>

// SHOW NO FRIENDS TAB, SHOW NO FOURMS TAB
			<?php } ?>

2.) And Would I place the If/Else statement you help me with in the home.php file or my child theme functions file?

[Hugo Ashmore]

This is not a z-index issue as such, it’s a very old problem that has been around for ages and is to do with managing the parameters for this object, the correct or intended behaviour is for flash player to hover as it were on the page independent of the natural stacking order of the dom elements. Adding the parameter wmode=”opaque” overrides this and sets the player into the page – flattens it where it should then observe the stacking order or applied z-indices.

The issue is going to be accessing the elements to add this parameter.

If you search around you would eventually find this post on WP forums, which includes the rather convoluted solution to forcing the iframe element to work with wmode=opaque
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/help-adding-wmodetransparent-to-oembeds ( the post appears to suggest the question might have been asked here in the past? search?)

I’ll copy the pastebin example function here for your convenience, use at your own risk 🙂

add_filter( 'the_content' , 'mh_youtube_wmode' , 15 );

function mh_youtube_wmode( $content ) {

// Regex to find all <ifram ... > YouTube tags
$mh_youtube_regex = "/\<iframe .*youtube\.com.*><\/iframe>/";

// Populate the results into an array
preg_match_all( $mh_youtube_regex , $content, $mh_matches );

// If we get any hits then put the update the results
if ( $mh_matches ) {;
	for ( $mh_count = 0; $mh_count < count( $mh_matches[0] ); $mh_count++ )
		{
		// Old YouTube iframe
		$mh_old = $mh_matches[0][$mh_count];

		$mh_new = str_replace( "?feature=oembed" , "?wmode=transparent" , $mh_old );
		$mh_new = preg_replace( '/\><\/iframe>$/' , ' wmode="Opaque"></iframe>' , $mh_new );

		// make the substitution
		$content = str_replace( $mh_old, $mh_new , $content );
		}
	}
return $content;
}

This doesn’t include solutions for BP oembeds though, the whole function could do with scrutiny and perhaps updating a little.

[shanebp]

The name of the filter hook may have changed. Ask on the s2member forums.

[shanebp]

Please use the ‘code’ button when posting code in these forums.

They explain exactly where to put it:

You can overcome this problem by adding the following to your s2hacks.php file in your mu-plugins folder:

You may have to create that folder and file. If you don’t know how, google it.

[shanebp]

No offense, but your code is a real mess.
And you should be using wpdb instead of mysql_query.
Please consider hiring a developer. You can post a job here.

[Hugo Ashmore]

MS is always a setup that is significantly more complex than a single site BP setup which probably the majority of installs are and with which people here are familiar with, add into the mix the domain mapping and it’s that bit harder to diagnose.

Given the issue description it’s not going to be easy to suggest what’s wrong and possibly why there hasn’t been a response ( on forums when no response the form is to attempt a re-wording or addition of detail in case those are the reasons for lack of response)

Detail such as where BP is installed exactly, which plugins are in use doing what exactly are going to help but be aware to some extent trying to replicate this as an issue might require someone having to attempt to setup exactly along the lines your install is to be able to understand the issue and that that may be too much to expect on a volunteer support forum.

[marvc]

Two weeks and not even a response? So no one in this ENTIRE buddypress community sees this as something worth responding to? How can you not get support, or even a response, from developers of their own product?
Gonna re-post as it doesn’t appear as though this forum is being monitored.

[Henry Wright]

@jjj I’ve noticed 1 or 2 forum spam messages today actually. Topic subject lines were along the lines of aaaaaaaaa and the thread content was a similar kinda crap. Not sure if that was related? Anyhow, I spammed the messages when I came across them

[djsteveb]

@mika909 – I do not think anyone at the buddypress forums is going to help you with this. When trying to get a particular plugin to work with BP it is best to read the instructions with that plugin ( wordpress . org/plugins/paid-memberships-pro/faq/ )

or ask in the support forums for said plugin ( https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/paid-memberships-pro )

Although the FAQ for this plugin links to the premium plugin site – which basically says figure it out on your own.. or register there free to get access to extra documentation, or pay $297 to get extra help and up to one hour of consultation / help in setting this plugin up.

This is really not a buddypress how to / troubleshooting thing. If there is a way to mark this thread as resolved you should do that.

[Cartographer]

Hi again,

I just found the problem and wasn’t the 4.0.1 version of WordPress.

Just for your info see here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wp-search-engine-visibility-causes-issue-in-displaying-bbpress-in-bp-activity/

Thank you!

[Hugo Ashmore]

@yanner11 this is tending to veer off from the purpose of this forum to help with BP issues, you may be best addressing server questions to your hosting support?

You might try logging into your hosting account control panel and seeing how things look from whatever file manager is provided.

btw if you have vaultpress you should be able to revert back and out of any issues not sure why you couldn’t?!

[shanebp]

You should.
And – btw – this is the BuddyPress forum.
Your question is better suited to the bbPress forum.

[shanebp]

Yes, it’s unfortunate that bbPress doesn’t clean up the roles it created when uninstalled.
( note: it shouldn’t remove roles when it’s just deactivated. )

But this is the BuddyPress forum.
Please ask your question on the bbPress forum.

[shanebp]

Cannot duplicate this issue.
With the same setup, the activity stream shows new topics and answers from both group and global forums.

[shanebp]

You’ll need to write some custom code.
It is more complicated than a ‘tweak’.
You probably need to hire a developer.
You can post jobs here.

[cvf]

Haha omg! I logged into the wrong forum! Whoa, cutting myself off of coffee for the rest of the day. Thanks Hugo, sorry about this one guys. I goofed. Good for a laugh for the other members.

[VentureCore]

Thank you @maaazkhan007, it’s very comforting to know there are spelling police monitoring the forums. I feel so much better now… or is really just your way of spamming the forums like a troll with your masked links?
