Apart from the BP-profile integration, each user can easily add a Google Map on their blogs using the tags in http://www.ezbizniz.com/wordpress-plugins/google-maps

I’ve also added the possibility to get markers from an XML-feed. If you, in the WP Google Maps settings, click on the “See example…”-link you see the URL to an XML-feed that will return markers for 20 of the users withint the viewport of the current map. You can use this to display a map on your front page displaying where the different members on your site lives.

In the “Marker XML Feed Fields” input field you can specify the names of the different fields of the markers returned by the XML-feed.

In the “Marker XML Feed HTML Pattern” you can set how the information will be presented when someone clicks on a marker.

I will write a more detailed description on how things work on http://www.ezbizniz.com/wordpress-plugins/google-maps when I get the time to do so.

Hi bergsten!

Plugin works fine so long. What´s your plan with the plugin? Mayby a profile-integration is possible (under profile fields under the wp-mu backend)?

i’ve found this function –

function xprofile_filter_link_profile_data( $field_value, $field_type, $field_id ) {

if ( $field_type == 'datebox' )

return $field_value;



if ( !strpos( $field_value, ',' ) && ( count( explode( ' ', $field_value ) ) > 5 ) )

return $field_value;



$values = explode( ',', $field_value );



if ( $values ) {

foreach ( $values as $value ) {

$value = trim( $value );



if ( count( explode( ' ', $value ) ) > 5 )

$new_values[] = $value;

else

$new_values[] = '<a href="' . site_url() . '/' . MEMBERS_SLUG . '/?s=' . $value . '">' . $value . '</a>';

}



$values = implode( ', ', $new_values );

}



return $values;

}

add_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 2, 3 );

so EVERY field is ‘link’ field.. i think this is not so good ;/

next stape i think should be creation of new field_types, and applying filters to this field_types in this function. but where are this types and how to create new ones i don’t know..

and other question – how to check user added info posted in this extra fields? cause i just saw hundreds spaces in ‘link’ field…

fishbowl81, I like your member theme.which file did you use to change the top bar ie to red & black.

That is how did you do it?

And also can you adapt it for lastFM widget?

This post maybe a little more clear, as it has a full working music player.

#1, the 2 is priority of the filter.

#2, I have been lazy and just made everything inside of the “social details” group active links. In the future I maybe validating them with some regular expressions or substring checking.

#3, check for an @ and at least 1 period in the string and no spaces? There are some very complex regular expressions which can validate e-mail addresses, but regular expressions are slower then substrings.

Brad – nicely done. a few beginner questions:

1. where are you applying this filter? I assume 2 was the field_id?

2. For the web site link (non-bp link) in your example, do users need to merely enter a valid url? just http://www.example.com or what, specifically – I will need to steer them.

3. How would you go about configuring a mailto: link (assuming they were safe behind the login walls form scrapers

very simple

remove_filter( ‘bp_the_profile_field_value’, ‘xprofile_filter_link_profile_data’, 2);

That removes the autolinking

I have developed a nice plugin (now a pair) which changes profile values rendering depending on the name of the group. I have not yet released the code, as I’m offering it as beerware.

Here is my profile on my beta site:

http://gorgeousgamers.com/beta/members/bradmkjr/

I made the social details, normally clickable so people can enter myspace, facebook, or personal sites.

I also made a fun mp3 player plugin to allow people to suggest music for their profiles and listen to samples.

*bump*

It would be helpful to see your code, Brad. Are you willing to share?

when are you going to release it and also can you apply it for youtube media ?

Filters are very useful, I’ve tried to include filters on every template tag, so you can modify template tag output as you see fit.

This is a good solution (or hack) for when this has to be in the profile page. I can easily see this expanding into it’s own page for bigger sites. And I forgot about the filter hint from Andy. Good job.

Finished,

Wrote it as a customization to the profile fields, managed to do it in about 10 or so lines of php. Read my complete post here:

If I had the time, I’d build a plug-in that 1. added a section to the profile page that 2. worked like myBlogLog in that it showed a bunch of username/profile url fields for the various other social networks and then validated prior to 3. showing on a member profile as a nice icon/button to that site/platform/service. Otherwise, odds are many noob users won’t go the extra mile to paste links or do whatever it takes to make text look right.

lol! OK, I just did a clean install (1and1). Same symptom…tables not created. Here are the relevant fields from wp_sitemeta:

bp-activity-version 1.0b1

bp-core-version 1.0b1

bp-xprofile-base-group-name Base

bp-xprofile-fullname-field-name Full Name

bp-xprofile-fullname-conversion 1

bp-xprofile-version 1.0b1

bp-messages-version 1.0b1

bp-groups-version 1.0b1

bp-friends-version 1.0b1

bp-blogs-first-install 1

bp-blogs-version 1.0b1

P.S. Actually I liked the lady floating in space with the bowl on her head. I have exotic tastes.

Here’s another snippet. This is the first error log entry that appears after invoking BP:

Can you tell I’m desperate?

1and1 just notified me that they’re redirecting Apache error logging to a file I can access. I went to the back site admin area, which is supposed to trigger the creation of the BP tables. Some of the log corresponding to that looks like what I’ve pasted below. Not sure if the SQL syntax error is causing all the trouble. Please let me know what else you need. Again, thanks.

Fresh domain. Fresh upload. Fresh install. Fresh cookies. Triple-checked permissions. Same problem: Can’t create groups, either from back admin side or front side. I always get the message, “”There was an error saving group details. Please try again.”

I’m afraid I’m close to throwing in the towel.

The installation directions say, “7. Head to: “Site Admin > Profiles” in the wp-admin area.” I don’t see a “Profiles” option, just “Profile Fields.” Just a typo?

My install is at: http://exploreouroceans.org

Thanks and Happy Holidays.

zanzoon, dimensionmedia is right in asking what exactly are you referring to? The site linked in your profile looks fine and seems to be operating fine. That error is on what page? What theme are trying to access it on as the 2 default themes seem to be working fine. As well, in your admin the URL to access the xprofile fields is like this:

/wp-admin/wpmu-admin.php?page=xprofile_settings

Are you trying to access the URL directory or something?

sweet, I’ll try that out, thanks!

it will link anything shorter than 5 words and anything between commas, 5 words or less.
