You should never hack core files, as you already said ,you will have to redo your customization after each update !

1) https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/

2) BP will be updated, and your custom work will remain intact, as long as you use a child-theme and bp-custom.php Child theme and bp-custom have priority when BP is loaded. Anything which is not in them will then be taken directly from BP or theme. Read about template hierarchy on codex.

All this is detailled on codex. If questions, seacch the forum, they’re many topics around this.

Hi @subairtc,

see bp_activity_get_where_conditions filter in bp-activity-classes.php ~L. 418

Here a similar question with more details.

Also, maybe you can do something based on this snippet, with a different approach.

/**
 * Change order of activities query string.
 * @param string $query Query string.
 * @return string $query Modified query string.
 */
function bpfr_filter_activity_default( $query ) {
	if ( empty( $query ) && !empty( $_POST ) ) {
		$query = 'order=ASC';
	}
	return $query;
}
add_filter( 'bp_ajax_querystring', 'bpfr_filter_activity_default', 999 );

Apologize if i’m wrong. 😉

I doubt there’s a tutorial on this particular setup, but any specific questions you have feel free to post here and we’ll do our best to help you out 🙂

requests for help in these forums don’t seem to get much attention to me

Everyone here is a volunteer. Nobody is obligated to answer your questions – especially ones steeped in entitlement.

If you want more attention and faster attention – hire a developer.

Or at least use gist to share the code you’ve written in attempting to find a solution.

For your task, I would use the Group Extension API.

@lekins101 great stuff 🙂

Hi @janeakshar

Try asking over at bbPress. They should be able to help with bbPress-related questions like this.

Ref: https://bbpress.org/forums/

Hello FORUM,

Had there 2 questions.
1.

thanks for your help and for my bad english,)

Assuming you mean the plugins discussed here a year ago, no plans.

Beyond that, your questions are best addressed to the plugin author via their website.

update2: found shane’s answer here:
http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/196929/how-to-get-member-list-based-on-role-by-using-buddypress

…and got it to work to only show a single role, which covers about half the users I want to show. I don’t really understand array syntax, but am now neck-deep in the new “role__in” thing in 4.4

…and finally got it to work, after finding https://gist.github.com/sbrajesh/2142009 (the most recent comment is key, bringing in “role__in”

Hi,

i tested and cannot confirm the described issue. The link of a name suggestion is normally
http://site-name/members/USERNAME/messages/compose/# and AJAX provide autocomplete CSS and username. Your slug contains the word ‘undefined’. No idea where it cames from… perhaps a js conflict somewhere.

Have you checked with different browsers ?

That said, i have some questions:
why do you say (only friends connected) ? By default, you can send a message to any of your friends – they don’t need to be connected. Did you enabled a special setting so you can only communicate with connected members ?

The other question is the strange output of Testleher example. The name comes up with additionnal (demo) and (lehrer). Are both member types or similar you added, manually or with a third party plugin ?

If you have a local test install, i would recommand you to install bp-default-data plugin and heavily test the message component, without any other plugins at first, and to activate the other plugins one by one.
