In reply to: “Join Group” button missing from Groups Directory
mrjarbenne
ParticipantJoin Group will only appear with groups that you have set up as “Public”. Private Groups will have a “Request Membership” button, and hidden groups will appear for you as an admin, and for users that are already members, but will otherwise not appear.
As the Admin/Creator of the group, you won’t see any of these buttons. Try logging in as a reg subscriber.
November 5, 2011 at 1:52 am #123774In reply to: How does Buddypress handle roles and permissions?
ParticipantYou can limit access to forums by putting them behind private groups. By default, your members have the ability to post on the activity stream, but limiting access to groups, either by setting the Buddypress Admin panel to only allow Admins to create groups, or by using the Limit Group Creation plugin, you can keep your users out of certain forums.
Currently there is no out-of-the-box way to allow read-only access to a buddypress install; but given that it’s a SOCIAL network, it isn’t really a logical functionality to have: seems anti-social.
November 5, 2011 at 1:47 am #123773In reply to: Can’t See How to Connect with Other Users
ParticipantWhen you say “make a post on the site” are you talking about a Blog post in a WordPress Multisite install, or an Activity Stream update? A blog post from a user will create a hyperlink on the Activity Stream that will go directly to that blog, but very much like on this site, if you click directly on the avatar of the user in question, you should be taken to their profile page, on which you will see a “Friend” button, a “Private Message” button etc.
Ensure that you have activated all of these items in the Network Admin/Buddypress Panel. It is possible that you have friend connections; private messages; profiles; etc turned off. Here’s a nice tutorial on setting up Buddypress 1.5 http://wpmu.org/the-illustrated-guide-to-installing-and-setting-up-buddypress-1-5/comment-page-1/

MemberIsin’t buddypress only supposed to be installed sa a plugin to wordpress?
https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/setting-up-a-new-installation/
I did set BP_ROOT_BLOG constant. As I said, everything else is working fine. Members can login, create groups and forums, join groups, the members in a group do get listed in that group, they can send friend requests to each other and also private messages, appear in activity streams….
It’s just that members directory comes blank and friendship requests page shows no friendship requests, even when the top admin bar shows notice of new request.

KeymasterI think that this is a decent candidate for a patch. Feel free to work it up as one and attach it to that ticket.

Memberfor sure – but the bug is open for 15 months ( https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2576 ) and wasn’t fixed – and therefore i thought if you tidy the code up you could add it to core as a patch.

October 31, 2011 at 10:42 am #123459MemberAs there was a php error if the user who uses the forum directory is not logged in the following modification was done:
Code://Get current user
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();//Fetch forums IDs to which user has access
$i = 0;
$result = mysql_query("SELECT meta_value FROM oba_bp_groups_members, oba_bp_groups_groupmeta WHERE user_id = ".$current_user->ID." and oba_bp_groups_members.group_id = oba_bp_groups_groupmeta.group_id and oba_bp_groups_groupmeta.meta_key=’forum_id’")
or die ("MySQL-Error: " . mysql_error());
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$res[$i] = $row["meta_value"];
$i++;
}//Implode forum ids into a comma sperated list e.g: 3,5,7
if ( !empty( $res ) )
$comma_separated = implode(",", $res);// Set this for groups
//Old //$parts[‘groups’] = "(gm.meta_key = ‘forum_id’ AND gm.meta_value = t.forum_id)";
$parts[‘groups’] = "(gm.meta_key = ‘forum_id’ AND gm.meta_value = t.forum_id AND gm.meta_value IN (".$comma_separated."))";You also need to add the functionality that logged in users can potentially see all forums (the above code then filters out forums the user is not member of):
after
Code:// Are we a super admin?
elseif ( is_super_admin() )
unset( $parts[‘private’] );add
Code:// Allow the forum directory to display private forums for users
elseif ( is_user_logged_in() )
unset( $parts[‘private’] );October 30, 2011 at 5:41 pm #123407Sirup
MemberThis problem is solved.
In in “bp-groups-filters.php” in function “function groups_add_forum_where_sql( $sql = ” ) ” change the following (oba is the database prefix):Code://Get current user
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();//Fetch forums IDs to which user has access
$i = 0;
$result = mysql_query("SELECT meta_value FROM oba_bp_groups_members, oba_bp_groups_groupmeta WHERE user_id = ".$current_user->ID." and oba_bp_groups_members.group_id = oba_bp_groups_groupmeta.group_id and oba_bp_groups_groupmeta.meta_key=’forum_id’")
or die ("MySQL-Error: " . mysql_error());
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$res[$i] = $row["meta_value"];
$i++;
}//Implode forum ids into a comma sperated list e.g: 3,5,7
$comma_separated = implode(",", $res);// Set this for groups
//Old //$parts[‘groups’] = "(gm.meta_key = ‘forum_id’ AND gm.meta_value = t.forum_id)";
$parts[‘groups’] = "(gm.meta_key = ‘forum_id’ AND gm.meta_value = t.forum_id AND gm.meta_value IN (".$comma_separated."))";October 28, 2011 at 1:41 pm #122985MemberI still struggle to get this view running corectly.
I managed to find out how to pull all group ID’s for a given userid:
SELECT group_id FROM `xyz_bp_groups_members` where `user_id` = 1
And how to get all forum_id’s for a given group:
SELECT meta_value FROM `xyz_bp_groups_groupmeta` where group_id = 1 and meta_key = ‘forum_id’
My idea was to do a join as i didn’t know how to follow your directions correctly @boonebgorges.
Therefore i tried to modify the original $sql (line 83 in bp-group-filters.php):$sql .= ‘JOIN ‘ . $bp->groups->table_name . ‘ AS g LEFT JOIN ‘ . $bp->groups->table_name_groupmeta . ‘ AS gm ON g.id = gm.group_id ‘;
with this extended version:
$sql .= ‘JOIN ‘ . $bp->groups->table_name . ‘ AS g LEFT JOIN ‘ . $bp->groups->table_name_groupmeta . ‘ AS gm, oba_bp_groups_members AS gu ON g.id = gm.group_id AND gu.group_id = gm.group_id’;
unfortunately i have not enough know-how how the buddypress-core is working correctly. Any hints on how to do this properly?
Many Thanks!

ParticipantI’m using the walled garden technique for some privacy and have adapted it for bp 1.5.* !
This is based on https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/members-privacy-how-can-i-hide-members-profiles?topic_page=2&num=15#post-102784 and needs to go in a bp-custom.php file…
`
function sh_walled_garden()
{
global $bp;
if( bp_is_register_page() || bp_is_activation_page() || bp_is_page( BP_FORUMS_SLUG ) || bp_is_page( BP_GROUPS_SLUG ) )
return;if( ! bp_is_blog_page() && ! is_user_logged_in() )
bp_core_redirect( bp_get_signup_page() );
}
add_action( ‘wp_loaded’, ‘sh_walled_garden’ );
`
Originally add action was to get_header but now the bp template loads the header first so I had to move it…Before that one had to put a hook into the page template header to load the function – not sure which would now be best or if that hook is ok to use (It’s the only one i found that worked)?
The above function hides members and activity from those not logged in but enables forums and groups for everyone – see variation here

ParticipantThat was a terrible experience, but at least I know BP much better now. It was a combination of issues – ajax.php silently failed to load with the theme files on the production server, despite being identical to the theme files on staging (I still can’t explain that), and there was the just recently patched BP core bug with the red “You do not have access to this group” error.

ParticipantThe issue has been unravelling here:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/cant-request-private-group-membership-you-do-not-have-access-to-this-group/I started from scratch on the production server here:
http://dhcworks.carleton.ca/version2/With fresh files and a fresh DB, the issue came up again. Staging is here and hasn’t had any problems:
http://dev.archonic.com/carleton/dhc/You can login using username and password “tester” on both sites. Note that on production, the buttons to join, leave, and request aren’t showing on the group directory or group home.
UPDATE: just noticed r-a-y’s patch here – https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3687. I’ll try it and report back.
October 26, 2011 at 4:00 pm #122419ParticipantThis bug is potentially costing me a client, I’ve got to get a gasp on it soon. I reinstalled everything and started with a fresh database and the issue is still there. So let me ask a more broad question –
What does BP ask of a user to be eligible to join a group (public, private and hidden)?
User must be logged in, and….?October 24, 2011 at 10:06 pm #122241In reply to: Any fix for this issue with Private groups?
KeymasterAs you can see from that ticket, no, no-one’s fixed it yet. Patches welcome.

ParticipantBP version? Are you using bp-default theme or custom theme? New or updated installation? Any messaging plugins activated?

MemberI am getting a similar error on friend requests as well as private messages being sent since the upgrade. Can you give an example of the code fix that you placed? (Example of commenting out within php)
Thanks so much!
October 19, 2011 at 6:23 pm #122052ParticipantSmall update: I enabled the friending component of BP to invite a user to a group and that worked. However, in what might be an unrelated case, hitting “new topic” on all pages that have that button, as any user, does nothing. I believe it’s related – there’s a common condition failing for a number of functions due to botched permissions.
Perhaps a drag and drop update to BP 1.6 bleeding messed up the user table? I believe I did that after the issue showed up.
October 19, 2011 at 1:46 pm #122934ParticipantThanks Ray, I’ll keep an eye on that ticket. I’m not sure it’s what I’m experiencing however. Despite having the same WP, BP, plugins and theme, the buttons to join both public and private groups do not appear for any user, only on my production site. When on the page for a private group you’re not a member of, there is a tab link to request membership which will show the “You do not have access to this group” error, but the issue is higher than that since joining any group is somehow unavailable.
October 19, 2011 at 1:40 pm #122933Memberi try to get it running and provide my version if it works.
October 19, 2011 at 11:56 am #123277KeymasterProbably at least some custom SQL is needed. Something along the lines of:
(1) doing an additional query to get a list of the user’s groups and the forum_ids for those groups
(2) limiting the main forum topic query WHERE ( forum_id IN ( {$user_forums} ) OR group_status = ‘public’ ) (not sure if group_status is available here, I would have to look)> is it still that hard to implement the bugfix
It’s not very difficult technically, but it will introduce at least one or two more queries on what can already be a database-intensive page load. If you can provide a workable patch, I’m sure it would be happily considered.October 19, 2011 at 8:55 am #122941Membermaybe interesting for other users with private groups heavily used:
i modified the function “groups_add_forum_where_sql” starting at line 88 in /bp-groups/bp-groups-filters.php.
I added the following block at line 110:
elseif ( is_user_logged_in() )
unset( $parts );
therefore all logged in users get the same view as an admin and see updates in all private group forums (error message when clicking of threads they are not allowed to). next step would be to filter out group forums where the user has no permission.
==
is there an function which could be used for that filtering in bp (replacing is_user_logged_in())?
or is custom sql code needed here? -
