BuddyPress.org

Tempera theme was recently updated and normally you haven’t to use the old buddybar.
So the define is of no utility… (see ticket)

BP use now the WordPress Toolbar.

It looks also that you have 2 activity pages, 2 members page and 2 groups page. There should be only one. See if you have deleted pages, and clear the trash.
Also set up the pretty permalinks (anything but default), or at least re-save that setting page.

Finally, make a test with one of wp’s default theme, bring anything to work, before activating Tempera.

I use another theme of the same author, and if like i suspect, there is the same theme customization tool in Tempera, you must be carefull with that theme settings.

In BP settings, you have an option to show/hide the toolbar to logged out user. Deactivate it.

And read the theme doc attentively ! 😉

@izzyian, I believe if you use the code above it will also remove the Whats new form from your main activity stream too! If you want to hide it from just the profile pages i suggest trying this code.

div#item-body form#whats-new-form {
display: none;
}

Hope this helps

@mcpeanut,

The problem is with the hiding of activity comments

How did you hide activities comment ?
Default wp/bp install let you add 5 (nested) comments only. And all comments are shown on SWA. If you have 100 you have to scroll them, yes.
I’m unable to reproduce your issue.

Try this bp settings:
check profile syncing
check activity stream commenting for blog and forum
check automatically check for new items

wp discussion settings
uncheck Enable threaded (nested) comments
uncheck Break comments into pages

@jessicana,

The field NAME in the field group BASE is required. This group is used for the registration page to work. As you already know, it’s also this group who allows you to show custom fields on the registration page.
The NAME field in BuddyPress is intended to receive first and last name and replace the two original fields (first name, last name) coming with WordPress.

That said, you can hide this field to users, but you can’t give them the choice to show/hide it.

The above snippet will hide the field NAME to all visitors/members, but not to site admin and the concerned profile.

function bpfr_make_name_members_only( $retval ) {	
	//hold all of our info
	global $bp;
	
	// is xprofile component active ?	
	if ( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) )
	
    // The user ID of the currently logged in user
    $current_user_id = (int) trim($bp->loggedin_user->id);
	
    // The author that we are currently viewing
    $author_id  = (int) trim($bp->displayed_user->id);
	
	// user can see only his name && admin can see everyone 
	if ($current_user_id !== $author_id && !current_user_can('delete_others_pages') ) {
		$retval['exclude_fields'] = '1';	
	}
	return $retval;	
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_profile_parse_args', 'bpfr_make_name_members_only' );

Add this to your child-theme functions.php or to bp-custom.php

Take a look at the post by henrywright on this page.

Hi I’m wanting to just hide member profile pages, but keep all other BuddyPress pages public. I tried this code in my bp-custom.php, but it doesn’t work. Any ideas?

/* Prevent logged out users from accessing bp profile pages */
function nonreg_visitor_redirect() {
global $bp;
if ( bp_is_profile_component() {
if(!is_user_logged_in()) { //just a visitor and not logged in
wp_redirect( get_option('siteurl') . '/register' );
}
}
}
add_filter('get_header','nonreg_visitor_redirect',1);

I’m all for fun and for personalising group activities! I’m thinking of adding polls and quizzes, but I don’t like adding tabs to the group page – I have actually been trying to avoid sending users (many of whom are somewhat grouchy about technology) to the default group pages (which look sort of 1999, even in my estimation.) So I’m playing with ways to hide the default group page and create a separate “space” for each group (without going MU.) I’ll follow this thread with interest, and post if I find something useful!

@pjbursnall yeah that code replicates the notification element only (the only part that is somewhat confusing to replicate) you place the code in the plugins directory in bp-custom.php you may have to create the file yourself.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9953482/how-to-make-a-pure-css-based-dropdown-menu – shows you how to create a drop down menu, https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_currentuserinfo get the current users info so you can create links to their profile pages, etc.

Just a note, to add the notifcations to your custom bar your code will look something like <li><?php bp_notification_badge(); ?></li>

I have similar request. We would like to exclude admins from groups. We set that only admins can create groups and now all groups have admin for a member. It is ok to have admin activity listed but we would like to hide admins from member listings on group pages. Is this code or part of code work on BP 1.8.1.?

hi @valuser,

the bp_is_blog_page function is missing to hide the calendar when on BP pages.

The place with the weird output contains an overcomplicated method to show a title. IMHO there is no need to use so many conditionnals to show a post title…. So I replaced it by the h1 stuff used in Twenty Thirteen.

You will probably need some adjustment into CSS too. So far i can see there is no other trouble with BP. Nice theme !

remove/replace the following into /partials/part_article_header.php

    <?php
    // Article calendar
    if ( bp_is_blog_page() ) :  //  if it returns true, it's not a BP page.
	
    if (!is_page() && !is_search()) : ?>
	<div class="calendar event_date">
		<span class="month"><?php echo strtoupper(get_the_date('M')); ?></span>
		<span class="day"><?php echo get_the_date('d'); ?></span>
		<span class="year"><?php echo get_the_date('Y'); ?></span>
	</div>
    <?php endif; 
           endif; // ending bp_is_blog_page ?>

    <h1 class="entry-title">
        <?php if ( is_single() ) :  ?>
            <?php the_title(); ?>
        <?php else : ?>
            <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
			 <?php endif; ?>
    </h1>

A quick search provided all of these related threads. You should be able to find something in one of them that will point you in the right direction.

Members page is not visible in the top menu bar

@waterfiend check out http://wpmu.org/how-to-build-a-facebook-style-members-only-wordpress-buddypress-site/ or have a look at different solutions posted for a private BP site at https://buddypress.org/support/topic/protecting-buddypress-pages-from-non-logged-in-users/

This key works same as the link to confirm your acount sent to your e-mail works. The difference is that the key has to be manually entered in the field on “Activate” page. You can hide this page from your menu for logged in users because it is meanless for them after registration, activation and logging in the site for the first time.

If you change the css file you will remove it from all pages. In my opinion just find this code to your html file and remove it. In any case you can do an inspection element to your browser (this will help you more). Have a backup anyway.

Also, how can I hide the Activity pages etc. until the user loggs in?

Read my reply in the following thread to accomplish this.
