Hi, I have made a little “warning panel” and I want to send a message automatically that notifies the infraction to the user.
For now, when it happens, I do this operation.Insert into wp_bp_messages_messages (parameters)
Insert into wp_bp_messages_recipients (parameters) -> for who sends
Insert into wp_bp_messages_recipients (parameters) -> for who receives
Insert into wp_bp_messages_recipients (parameters)I have two questions:
The first it is about thread_id parameter: I just set it as last_thread_id +1. I know it is sloopy and probably duplicates conversation between users and ADMIN. I do not think that would be a problem, wouldn’t it?The second is about, am I missing something? Because I found that if I send a message this way to the ADMIN, for tests, it is not notified in his mail, but other messages do.
So ideas?Regards.
Hello!
First I would like to say thank you all for this wonderful plugin and thank you to all volunteers who are helping people in this forum.I have just two questions:
– How can I associate a Group with a specific Post? When I create a Post I would like that a group with the same name being created automatically.
– Is there a shortcode or any functions to add a joining button for a specific Group anywhere on the site? I would like a joining button at the bottom of the Post associated with the Group.
Thank you a lot!
Dorem 🙂How to Link the Author Link to the buddypress user profile page
I have seen Many topics on this and many questions on this but i still cannot figure it out/
can someone please provide me with broad instruction on how to fix this
Topic: Embedding Verold
Sorry i think i posted in wrong forum before. Maybe this part is better to ask this type of questions.
I want that our users would be able to paste in code from verold so they their friends and colleagues can view their models in buddypress. Embedding Verold works in bbpress, wordpress but not buddypress.
Can anyone direct me to this problem, how to make this work?
What is missing?
<?php wp_embed_register_handler('verold’, 'http://studio.verold.com/projects/([\w]+)/embed', 'wp_embed_handler_verold'); function wp_embed_handler_verold($matches, $attr, $url, $rawattr) { $embed = sprintf( '<iframe frameborder="0" width="600" height="400" src="http://studio.verold.com/projects/%1$s/embed"></iframe>', esc_attr($matches[1])); return apply_filters('embed_verold', $embed, $matches, $attr, $url, $rawattr); } ?>I have a small site where members are categorized. For example, hypothetically, if these were my categories
Knights
Dukes
Counts
PawnsI don’t want users to be able to join or leave a category. Instead I want to be assign them to whatever category. New users start out as pawns. At some point they satisfy a certain criteria and they can move up (either by an admin or invitation, etc).
Users need to be able to see who has risen to other categories. The idea is that you want to join those users in that group, and users who have gotten there should feel good about it and want others to know.
I’ve been trying to use Groups to do this for me, but there are some serious problems. If I make groups private, I can control membership ok, but then a Pawn can’t see who’s a knight, they can only see that there is a Knights group.
If groups are public it that would satisfy the visibility requirement, but leaves 2 pretty big membership problems: I have to remove user’s ability to joining and leaving a groups.
Because I can prevent users from creating groups via the Dashboard, at least this problem is solved. Which leads to my questions.
Questions:
1. Is groups the right way to do this?
2. Can I remove the user ability to join and leave groups? Perhaps by hiding the join and leave buttons?Possible Solutions:
1. As a “sort of” solution, I’m currently using BuddyDev’s Limit Group Membership plugin: (http://buddydev.com/plugins/buddypress-limit-group-membership-per-user/) which lets me set the number of groups a user can join to 0. However anyone can still leave a group whenever they want, and also it acts a little weird for administrators.
2. I think what I really need to do is just remove the join/leave buttons from the member directories and groups directory. I’m sure you can do this in php – but I have no earthly clue how. A plugin that can do this would be “perfect” – can’t find one.
3. Another (possibly quite simple) solution would be if I could create a private group member directory that is visible to the public – then group membership could be controlled normally by invitation only.Any help is much appreciated!
Hi
I’m looking at the theme Sweet Date from Themeforest, and have a few questions regarding the profile page that is controlled by BuddyPress as i understand it.
Is there an easy way to make more sections with questions for the members to answer to get at more fulfilling profile, like this
?
And what about some question that are answered by ticking off boxes, and also make them searchable, like vegetarian, vegan, smoking a.s.o. ?
The next thing, i’m not sure whether it is controlled by PaidMembershipsPro or BuddyPress, but i need 4 membership plans, where the 1st is free, can’t interact, only read/view, the 2nd Bronze can only interact with one member at a time, 3rd Silver can interact with all paying members, 4th Gold can interact with all paying + non-paying members ?
And last, is it possible to have some sort of validation of a profile based upon how much the members has answered to the questions, like 36%, 57%, 79% a.s.o., and then give them some sort of a quality stamp based on that ?
All the best
CarstenHi,
I am really new to all of this. I am starting up a new site – just registered the domain, secured VPS hosting via a small orange and had my domain name servers set at my domain registrar (dynadot).
This is a private paid membership site. There is no free content, no teaser pages, nothing.
I plan on installing buddyboss.
Members of our local, in person, social group will get an email inviting them to subscribe to our optional online community.
They will be able to subscribe at 3 different levels. Basic will get them a profile, wall, status updates, ability to post images, send/accept friend requests, email other members, see member directory. They will also be able to see blogs written by higher level subscribers, and if I can get it set up, they will be able to see a marketplace and buy things that higher level subscribers have for sale or see businesses they are announcing in the marketplace.
If this private community site goes well, and works well without being a big pain in the neck : ), then I will be making it available to other groups in other cities. So, my thinking is this…
Using the example site of “www.psn.com” for my question purposes
– the social network I create will be designated by the local community geographic location – so for example the very first site I make live would be chicago.psn.com.
If that goes well and runs nicely, then I would make another site toledo.psn.com for members of that social group.
Members in chicago.psn.com would have NO access to toledo.psn.com, and vice versa, they remain separate private communities.
I want them all to look the same way, same layouts, same levels of membership access, etc, just be restricted to access by locally residing group members.
What, in baby language, do I need to do to set this up so that it will work when I start to add on the new city sites? Given I am a total beginner with this stuff.
Do I install wp
in http://www.psn.com/wp
or do I install it in http://www.psn.com
or do I install it in chicago.psn.com
or do I install it in chicago.psn.comI have read about the child theme stuff and plan to use a child theme. Once I get the site set up with the correct membership levels, S2member and any other plug ins, then I will want to have that shell (minus the subscribed users) to very simply be able to pop onto toledo.psn.com, pittsburg.psn.com, etc.
I have read lots of stuff and am now thoroughly confused… : )
Here are more questions:
Can I install wp using the softaculous one click and still have buddypress work properly? I don’t know a thing about css php etc… but have read things that said it won’t work but I am not sure if that is from before buddypress made changes or not.
should I just stick with the default themes for wp and buddypress since I am buying buddyboss?
Many many many thanks for your kind patient advice!
I want to make this as streamlined and automated as possible from the start. I had a recommendation to use softaculous as it will apparently let me update one instance of wp/buddypress/buddyboss and have it automatically update all the city.domainname.com accounts… I do not really know how I will accomplish that, but am learning as I go, but he said it would help me so I got softaculous.
thanks again!
I have been messing about with buddypress for a while now and I am hoping to start a whole new business based on a website for people connecting together(using buddyypress)
Currently I am no where near ready to launch and is wordpress + buddypress with a bunch of other plugins and layouts I am trying out. I have a couple of questions so far that although I have found information on, its outdated or not very clear. Please be aware I can tinker about with code buy I am no coder.
Newsletter/Mass Message Users
Is there a way to send out a newsletter to all members email addresses? Or the alternative being sending them a mass private message that they see and get a email notification about? If not then what is my options for integrating something like mailchimp to the registration process with a checkbox?Profile Views
Who is looking at your profile, how many times etc. Currently I have only found “YD Profile Visitor Tracker” is there anything else out there?Media Files
I am wanting to add the ability of adding media files to activity updates, rtmedia is the best I have found, any other options?Social Network Only
I really want this to be more like a social network rather than somewhere to have discussions in groups. Can groups just be somewhere to list members rather than post any activity within them? Or can this be restricted to admin users only?Finally – Ideas Wall
For example http://www.wedundee.com/view-thoughts/ – This website lets users submit there thoughts and it is displayed in a nice decorative wall. Is there anything similar (wordpress/buddypress) can achieve? Would be good to see users of my site be able to share those ideas, comment and “like” those ideas.Using WP Version 3.8.1, BP Version 1.8.1
Hi- two questions:
1) BP accepts usernames w spaces, but WP won’t. Thus new students get error message (and no access) from WP. Solution? And why does BP allow a usernames that is not valid w WP?
2) Can BuddyPress be customized so that users from one school course cannot network with users from another? Or network only in their age group?
I have a school, and want to make sure younger students can network w their peers, but are safe from older students and adults. Likewise, I’d like adult students to be free to network with adult students, with younger students not having access to adult students.
Possible? Any BP developers want to help me achieve this on our school’s site?
Thanks!
Hi!
I’ve been trying to display the total number of buddypress notifications in front end of my website. I’ve been using code from a topic that addressed a few of my concerns. It uses the code from the buddypress admin bar:
http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/84072/show-buddypress-notification-in-the-frontend
It works fine, except that it only displays the total amount of notifications in 2 groups for messages, and friend request. So it doesn’t display any number greater then 2.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8411723/front-end.png
What I want is a way to display the notification count number shown in the member’s profile menu that shows the total amount of notifications individually:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8411723/notifications.png
If someone knows a way to display this specific number count outside the profile, I’d greatly appreciate any advice.
Thank you in advance!
Hi,
i have a problem with private groups / requesting membership to them.
As soon as i want to request the membership, i get an 404 – page not found.
Everything else just works fine ..
While looking for the error, i found that the link should go to e.g.
http://www.xy.de/community/groups/testgroup/request-membership?_wpnonce=54457079e4
On opening it changes to:
http://www.xy.de/community/groups/testgroup/request-membership/?_wpnonce=54457079e4Difference: The slash before the GET-Parameter. Could this be the problem? Do you have any idea how to solve it?
I already updated the permalink-settings. .htaccess says:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /community/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /community/index.php [L]
</IfModule># END WordPress
Any ideas or questions?
Greetings,
Max
Topic: Add activity type
http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/132109/buddypress-add-activity-type
I have put my question here.
I want to make a new type (where: All members, My friends and etc)
This type should be generated from meta_value from buddypress like plugin which adds meta like:
liked_count: a:3:{i:14;s:10:"user_likes";i:446;s:10:"user_likes";i:4;s:10:"user_likes";}and date (I’ll make algorithm myself)
