    Hi @shanebp
    First of all, thank’s a lot for your fast answer. Now I have understood a lot of thinghs, but I have only two little questions more:
    1. The solution using ACTIVITY.PHP, listing in the following topic , let administrator introduce comment from ADMINISTRATION PAGE (DASHBOARD)? Or neither user and administrator will can to do comments in the groups?
    2. If I create a CHILD THEME, where I must introduce the file ACTIVITY.PHP ?
    Maybe, I need create the followings folders GROUPS/SINGLE into the folder ENFOLD-CHILD? And introduce there ACTIVITY.PHP file into SINGLE folder? Is it so?
    I am not informatic and I don’t undestand very well what I need to do.
    Thank’s very very much for your answer.

    Hi!

    I would like to filter the members loop after clicking on a link. The filtering itself isn’t the problem because its well documented (https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/loops-reference/the-members-loop/). I just don’t know how to apply the filter and where to write the code.

    For instance my members have the xprofile fields gender and pet. On my homepage I have the following:
    <a href="#">All male members who have poodles</a>
    After clicking on this a new page should be opened which displays all male members with poodles.

    My questions:
    1. How can I tell the new page what should be filtered?
    2. How can I filter for more than one field. In the doc there’s this
    <?php if ( bp_has_members( my_custom_ids( $field_name, $field_value ) ) ) : ?>
    Can I enter more than one $field_name and $field_value (male and poodle)?
    3. Which template do I have to use for the custom members loop?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi – advice appreciated.

    I am building a professional knowledge hub based around community profiles and listings.

    Background:

    Profiles (members) will be ables to search for other Profiles based on categories, sub-categories and key words; Profiles are searchable and displayed.

    Profiles can set-up Listings based on categories, sub-categories and key words; Listings are searchable and displayed.

    2 Questions below:
    >Can BuddyPress Profiles (Members) set-up and associate listings (job descriptions) with their own Profile so a visitor / another member can search for Listings?
    >Can BuddyPress have a professional look and feel?

    Thanks David

    > and it must NOT be compulsory to join the group for the public groups. Why can’t this be done?
    Perhaps it can be, suggest it on a trac enhancement ticket if you feel that strongly, by default groups need members, BP list participants in a group or at least can track things if people are matched with a group.

    bbP forums is a standalone plugin that ties in to BP due to historical use of forums in groups, but you can create forums outside of BP groups and categorize/nest them but bbP support and documentation better explains how to setup bbPress, although we have a decent guide in our codex too just have a look through the docs πŸ˜‰ but do come back with any questions you might have to doing this if things still not clear.

    Greetings all – wasn’t sure where to put this (maybe a mod or admin can make this sticky in the right area in the forums).

    Miami is holding it’s third BuddyCamp and date as of now is May 29th, 2015. We are looking for speakers (this week we are opening up speaker applications). If you would like to come down and speak about BuddyPress / bbPress, then we would love to have you. If you can’t, please at least help us to spread the word starting tomorrow (Monday, Feb 23rd) on Twitter and Facebook.

    Myself and @JJJ will be there. This year, it’s looking VERY likely this will be a developer focused event and limited in attendance. So if you work in BuddyPress and want to get some intense one-on-one with contributors and other developers, this is the event.

    http://miami.wordcamp.org/2015/announcing-buddycamp-miami-2015/

    WordCamp Miami follows on that weekend (May 30th-31st). If you haven’t been to WordCamp in Miami, then you are missing out. Do a twitter search of #wcmia from May 2014 if you don’t believe me. πŸ™‚ With 770 last year, it’s been a guess Miami was around the 5th largest WordCamp of 2014.

    http://2015.miami.wordcamp.org

    Let me know if you have any questions! Really excited!!! πŸ™‚

    The only thing that comes top off my head is having another wp-login.php
    Rename the original wp-login.php as wp-login-backup.php using ftp or cpanel.
    Upload in its place another wp-login.php with just the following in it
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=http://mylifeismymuseum.eu/mlimm/activity/">

    Please note this is not the recommended way, and I am no coder and have no time and energy and sufficient money to mend wp+bp’s many strange things which do not suit us, just some quick fixes which I personally need also, as I have to build and look after a site, its contents and *users* and thus cannot wait for eternity πŸ™‚

    Use this at your own risk, if it works at all for you. Thanks for pointing this. Please click my profile and have a look at the unanswered questions, if you have some time please answer. If no time and no answer, no problem at all πŸ™‚

    Hey @danbp

    Thanks for the feedback. Before I answer your question, I just want to point you to question 4 in the plugin’s FAQ

    Why is it that some members don’t have an identicon?
    An identicon is used as a member’s avatar only if a profile photo hasn’t been uploaded. After activating the plugin, all new members will be allocated an identicon. Existing members will need to log in to get their identicon.

    The reason existing users have to log in to get their identicon is simple. Imagine if a site had 100,000 existing users. At the point the website owner activated the plugin, there’s no way 100,000 fresh identicons could be created. It’d crash their server immediately. I needed a way of staggering the creation of identicons for existing users. The approach I decided on was to create existing user’s identicons on their next login.

    Now, to answer your questions πŸ˜€

    – first time i activated BI, all users showed the mystery man. And plugin works, as i see the border.

    Great! That’s expected.

    – changed profile photo of admin: custom picture appeared.
    – removed the picture: identicon appeared on the admin account.
    -tried to do same thing with a dummy user. Nothing happened.

    The reason nothing happened for the dummy user is because you’re still logged in as admin. You will need to log in as the dummy user for his/her identicon to be created.

    – create a new user from back office, with gmail address, identicon showed up

    Great, that’s a new user created. Identicons are created for all new users so that’s expected.

    – manually created a identicons folder in /uploads/

    There’s no need to manually create folders. The plugin takes care of that for you automatically πŸ™‚

    – modified all dummy user mail address. Mystery man still showing.
    – applied a custom picture to one, ok, then removed. Mystery man again.

    Again, if you’re doing this logged in as admin, then nothing will happen. The actual dummy user will need to log-in in order for their identicon to be created.

    – tried global settings to β€œempty avatar”. Nada ! Reverted to default MM setting and still no identicon.

    Global settings aren’t taken into account by design. If you want to disable identicons, simply disable the plugin. Want them back? Re-enable it πŸ™‚

    On a dev site, using this plugin would really help to avoid calling an external avatar service.
    Would also be true for a prod site, where specially gravatars are mentionned to be optimized as they slow down page speed.

    That was one of the driving factors behind creating the plugin. The beauty of it (in my opinion) is there’s no need to make requests to an external service. Everything is stored locally which should improve page load speed.

    Hope this info helps to clear up any confusion. If you need any more info then just give me a shout, and feel free to open a support ticket on the plugin’s forum if you find a bug.

    @danbp Thanks! And apologies, my questions may appear to be too basic. This is partly because I am a newbie and, I guess, partly because our documentation needs further improvement.

    I am slowly getting a hang of what happens when something goes in functions.php/bp-custom.php.

    But still I am not able to achieve something that appears to be simple. May be, I will need to ask a better question. Which I will do, in a separate thread.

    Hi @julesmaas-1

    Try asking on the bbPress support forum. They cover all questions that are forum-related.

    My questions might have been too complicated. To put it simple, that’s the kind of website I am looking for:

    – Homepage: public
    – Pages 2 to 8: public
    – Page 9 including subpages: members only

    How do you set this up with BuddyPress? Is WP Network (Multisite) necessary?

    SECOND REQUEST FOR HELP*

    The “Back to Discussions” link in my forum take me back to my site’s homepage, instead of the listing of forum discussions. Do I have something set wrong? I can’t find anywhere to fix this.

    PLEASE SEE http://www.maaspublications.net/testsite/client/groups/webinar-participants/forum/topic/i-have-questions-lots-lots-of-questions/

    *(I did post this in an earlier thread that is also unresolved. https://buddypress.org/support/topic/the-←-back-to-discussions-button-takes-me-to-home-page-and-not-to-forum/)

    Hi @eversatile

    In case it helps in future, there is a support forum for bbPress where you can ask forum-related questions.

    In the activity stream Buddypress shows 5 comments when there are more than 5 comments with a “Show all X comments” link or button.
    This “Show all…” works in the default Twenty Fifteen theme but does not work in various Responsive Buddypress themes like Farben Basic.

    Is there any specific code snippet that can be copied into any current BP responsive theme so that “Show All” works?

    Thanks for your help.

    This questions has a part two (if needed I will make anew post, but if you know the answer please help) – After getting the “Show all” view how you can cancel it or get the collapsed/number of comment limited view again?

    Members need to log in at least once before they appear on the front end.

    If you have questions about bbPress ( forums ), please ask on their support forum.

    Hi @espyd,

    Sorry you are having this issue after upgrading. Just to help us understand why it’s happening, could you reply to these questions:

    WordPress version ?
    WordPress configuation ? (Multisite or not)
    If multisite: is BuddyPress activated on the main site or in a sub site ?
    In the General settings of WordPress is the registration setting on ?
    Are you using a cache plugin ?

    Hi, I am a site developer but this is my first project using BuddyPress and bbpress for forums.
    I seem to have everything working the way the client wants except for one thing.

    During User registration the form asks a few questions like eligible to vote etc? this info is stored on the users Extended Profile page.

    I need to give my client (the site owner) access to all user data so he can manage response accordingly but setting him as Editor he couldnt see the Extended Profile data for other users.
    So I created a user type of “Editor Plus” and allowed him to edit, delete and create user.

    He can now click into the other user profiles but still cannot view the Extended Profile Info.

    I have tried 15 different User/Admin plugins none of them allow him access to this extended data?

    My only option at this point is to make him an Administrator but im very nervous about doing that as he is a fiddler and could easily break the site.

    I seem to remember a few years ago I used a plugin to make myself Super Admin and then I could limit what other Admins could access but I cant find or remember what it was.

    This is only an issue for 2 user who will be running and managing the site so even if there is a code hack that i can put in for those 2 user to access the Extended Info pages?

    Thanks
    Mark

    @jjj just thought i’d ping you since nobody followed up on this one and he was still asking questions.

    My Java whiz kid friend wants to scrape data from the main activity stream for an applet and we need to distinguish who posted what and in what group by echoing the IDs of both in each activity item.
    I hate asking questions like this here, and I wouldn’t if I hadn’t already tried everything I found.

    We simply need to print the IDs after or before the content and make them invisible to humans with CSS.

    rhetorical questions…
    Did you try it?
    Is the hook I mentioned also in that template?
