In reply to: Changing Group from "Private" to "Public"

bbPress side of things https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2599

The workaround (for now until fixed) would be to verify the bbPress forum visibility and then to also run the bbPress repair tool “Recalculate private and hidden forums” to ensure meta data integrity.

Thanks @danbp for your reply.

I am fine with your explanation about the private and public nature of activities. My original question was about new forum activities created afterchanging a group’s status to public not showing up in group (&sitewide) activity anymore.

The real issue is this: Buddypress automatically creates forums during group creation if the check box is marked in. Private forums for private groups; public forums for public groups.

However, Buddypress does not change the visibility of the forums themselves when a group’s visibility is later changed. So while you think that your group has become Public now, it is still running a private forum inside itself.

Hence the queer case of the missing forum activity. So yeah, the workaround would be to manually change the forum’s visibility whenever one changes the group’s 😉

oh I see: you are very picky ! 😉
The only way to be notified is this setting page (under the condition you activate BP’s private message component). And as you can see, there is no possibility to forward message.
On front or on back end.

As an admin on our site, I am left with tons of unnecessary work when I need to forward messages to my mods from a user.

I’m a little stuned why you receive user messages if they want to contact a mod in fact. If you do unnecessary work, i would suggest you find a better handling method first. But i maybe wrong and this point is more subtle as i understand it here.

Anyway, this is your really specific BP usage. And so far i know, it is not a very common usage. BP cannot respond to absoulte any user usage. No software can do so.

As site admin, i never encountered any problem to contact the site members. And i never needed to create a friendship first to contact any of them. This action is only used when you want to invite members to join a private group.

So if you think you’re right, you’re free to ask for an enhancement on the Trac. If the devs will consider your demand as justified, you can begin to hope to receive satisfaction one day.
If not, or if you don’t want to wait, you’re free to develop your own solution.

Of course i disagree with this opinion:
It was most certainly not designed with efficiency on mind.

IMHO it’s better as nothing. Imagine one second that BP had no messaging system… The actual maybe rustical, incomplete or not responding exactly to your need, but would you be efficient enough to find another free and so powerfull software as BP is ? 😉

When a group is setup, you choose to make it public, private or hidden. Depending on this status, the activity will be shown or not. Details of this are explained on the group creation page.
- For a public group, all activities are public. Group is listed on group directory.
- For a private group, all activities are private and only be visible to members of the group. Group is listed on group directory.
- For a hidden group, any thing is masked except for the group members. Group is not listed on group directory.
If you create a private group the 3 of may 2014, his activities are registered to the bp-activities tab from this date with a status of “private”.

The 17 august 2014 you decide to modify the group status from private to public.
From now on, the group is considered as public and any activity generated in the group after this date will be considered as public.

In a few words, private activities are/and stay always private and public activities are always public, independantly of the group status.
And the activity feeds don’t look back in the past.

Hope to be clear. 😉

Hi @akovia,

each logged in user has access to his profile settings. Eg. on the top right user menu (howdy…)
or on the buddybar under the profile header.

/membres/xxxx/settings/notifications/

Settings > Email
Once on this setting page, each user can decide for what he want to receive an alert.

But it is an emailed notice he will receive, not the complete message.

This messaging system is intended to work internally. This means the content of the message stays on the site. BP eventually sends only a reference to the content. Eg. xxx send you a private message (site url), not the full message.

Private Messaging works like an internal site email. Members can message people on their friends list as well as forward and reply to received messages

@bphelp I see the reference to forwarding in that article but am not certain forwarding functionality is available. Perhaps @djpaul can confirm?

I must be seeing things then. (Certainly a possibility)

Private Messages

Private Messaging works like an internal site email. Members can message people on their friends list as well as forward and reply to received messages. Each member will have their own individual Inbox and Sent messages folders as well as a Compose message screen. Members will be notified of new messages by a new message count in own Messages tab, in notification circle in Admin toolbar, as well as receive email notifications of the private message, if enabled.

Topic: Changing Group from "Private" to "Public"

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

Not sure if this a Buddypress or a bbpress topic, so I’ll just start here…

I have Buddypress groups set up with group forums. I changed some groups (originally created as Private) to Public and new forum activity stopped showing up in the group updates (and also sitewide activity, since the groups were now public). They would only show up if I changed the groups back to Private.

However, a similar problem is not noticed if I change a group (originally created as a Public group) to Private. Any new topics/replies I create will continue showing in the group activity stream. I changed the setting between public/private several times and the updates show up either way.

My Questions:
1. Has anyone experienced a similar issue?
2. Does it appear to be a bug or am I mis-interpreting a functionality?
3. Any workarounds?

Details of my installation (in order):
1. Installed WordPress 3.9.2
2. Installed bbpress 2.5.4
3. Installed BuddyPress 2.0.2
4. Other Plugins: none

Thanks in advance!

I am unable to figure out how to forward a message. I’ve searched Google and this site for some information unsuccessfully. I did find some people asking to have this added as a feature, or ask how to do it, but there have been no answers.

From what I read here:
```
"Private Messages

Private Messaging works like an internal site email. Members can message people on their friends list as well as forward and reply to received messages. Each member will have their own individual Inbox and Sent messages folders as well as a Compose message screen. Members will be notified of new messages by a new message count in own Messages tab, in notification circle in Admin toolbar, as well as receive email notifications of the private message, if enabled."
```
It is clearly stated that this is a feature that is already there, but on our site we have no button for forwarding messages. Only replies.

Could someone clear this up or help troubleshoot the problem?

I would also like to know if there is a way to disable the “feature” that only allows you to message people on your friends list? Instead, I’d like everyone to have the ability to start typing a name in the “TO” field and have the the auto-matching feature enabled so you can select from the list.

Thanks Henry. Will download the plugin and see if it works with some other customisations I got. It might not so that is why I am looking at doing this filter thing similar to this code I am trying to get to work.

function override_button() {
return apply_filters( ‘bp_get_send_private_message_link’, wp_nonce_url( bp_loggedin_user_domain() . bp_get_messages_slug() . ‘/compose/test/?r=’ . bp_core_get_username( bp_displayed_user_id() ) ) );

}
add_filter(‘bp_get_send_private_message_link’,’override_button’);

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

Hi

I want to create a #link in the “private message” button/link that is on the profile page. So when people click on the “private message” button they are taking down to the compose form. This is a nice thing for user on iPhone. It is a little weird to click “private message” and then all mobile users are seeing is their avatar. So I wanted to create a #link.

My problem is that BuddyPress does not pick my custom bp-messages-template.php in my childtheme/buddypress/bp-messages/bp-messages-template.php. Cannot I not move this file over or is it only legacy folder I can move to my child theme?

If I can’t is there anyway to change the below filter for the message link and paste that into my function.php?

function bp_send_private_message_link() {
echo bp_get_send_private_message_link();
}
function bp_get_send_private_message_link() {

if ( bp_is_my_profile() || !is_user_logged_in() )
return false;

return apply_filters( ‘bp_get_send_private_message_link’, wp_nonce_url( bp_loggedin_user_domain() . bp_get_messages_slug() . ‘/compose/?r=’ . bp_core_get_username( bp_displayed_user_id() ) ) );
}

I want to add #messageform to the end of the link.

I am not super skilled at using filters.

Thanks

Topic: Users getting marked for spam after upgrading to BP 2.0.2

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

After upgrading to 2.0 (and 2.0.2 now) some users have been marked as spammers and their activity is not showing up at all in the activity feed. I don’t have Askimet or any other security plugin enabled, actually I tried disabling everything except BP and it still persists. I can fix it by marking the user manually for spam in the user list, then unmarking them, but it happens again if they try to post.

I noticed an entry in the bp_activity table “is_spam” field is set to 1 for those users. Is there a way to disable this spam filtering totally? As my site is private and registrations are closed anyway…

Topic: Prevent members from seeing each others profiles

Hi there, Im building a private membership site with BuddyPress and S2 Member and needing to prevent Members on certain levels from seeing each others profiles.

Essentially Im needing to have two very seperate levels of paid membership.

Level 1,2 & 3 members are not allowed to see ANY member profiles/directories.
Level 4 members need to have the ability to see ALL member profiles/directories.

This need to be an automatic feature depending on the level opted in by the member. I understand BuddyPress acts as a social community but Im needing it to behave in an anti social way.

Is this at all possible at all?

Ive searched for days and cannot find any plugins out of the box that can perform this.

Topic: bp_loggedin_user_id() === bp_get_member_user_id() always true?

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

pardo_bsso
Participant

Hi all,
I’m using BuddyPress 2.0.2 on top of WordPress 3.9.2, running on Linux.

The problem I’m trying to solve is that for some themes (specially, ) when viewing a profile ( http://mysite/members/some_username ) the buttons like “Add Friend” or “Send Private Message” do not appear.

I kind of worked around it adding an action to bp_member_header_actions and calling bp_get_button passing block_self=>false, the rest of the arguments copied from BuddyPress internals.

What I’ve found so far is that within that action bp_get_member_user_id() always returns the logged in user if using that theme (looking at line 1904 of bp-core/bp-core-classes.php ).

Inspecting the code of bp_get_member_user_id (line 385 of bp-members/bp-members-template.php ) $members_template is NULL when using the stock WordPress themes (so that function returns false, the check inside BP_Button passes and I have them) but on the one I’d like to use it is a populated object.

I’m blaming this on the theme but that behavior puzzles me.

Any thoughts?

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

We have been asking everywhere we can think of for help – but so far no one has answers. We have a site running on BuddyPress using the SweetDate theme. Any time a NON admin tries to access their messages it takes them to the membership level pricing page as part of the Paid Membership Pro.

Basically it is set so that if they don’t have the top level of membership it will take them to that page in order to upgrade their membership – however these people have the TOP level of membership that includes the private messaging feature.

We can not figure out what is going on and why it will not allow them to access the messages. Does anyone have any thoughts on what could be going on and why no matter who clicks to go to messages it redirects them to the membership page?

http://jeepedin.com is the site.

You could take a look at https://wordpress.org/plugins/private-community-for-bp-lite/
It allows you to make all pages/posts private by default. You can (optionally) exclude upto 10 pages/categories to show to the logged out visitors.

Topic: Simple Members Only for Buddypress

in group forum Third Party Plugins
Amy Strickland

I need a members only plugin that will work for my specific case. I have a Join Us page that I want to be visible to guests that outlines what the site is about and gives a contact form so that they can request an invite code. But I’m also running Buddypress. The plugin Simple Members Only works great for everything EXCEPT Buddypress, as it’s also restricting access from the Buddypress registration and login pages. The developer has a fix on his Developer tab, but it fails to install every time I try to upload it and he doesn’t seem to be replying to support requests.

So I need a plugin that:
1. Lets me make pages, posts, forums, and activity feeds private by default.
2. Allows guests to access more than one page I specify (all the plugins I’ve found only let you set one public page, which doesn’t work with Buddypress)
3. Will not require me to do anything with Paypal as I don’t want to scare people away; this is supposed to be free.

And here’s the kicker—
. It’s a mess when you update, I want new posts and pages to keep the same privacy settings, and I’ve been having enough problems with the crappy support team at my host anyway since they converted from Simplescripts to Mojo Marketfail. I don’t want to make it worse.

So is there a plugin that does what I need or does someone know how to get the BuddyPress version of Simple Members Only working?

Hi,

Could someone tell me why the search function on the default twenty thirteen theme doesn’t return results for groups – public, private or hidden? Am I doing something wrong? It seems to only return pages/posts not groups.

Ideally I would like the user to be able to use the search function to fine a hidden/private group that general users cannot see.

Many thanks
