Anybody have any idea about these questions?

With regard to the point in the final paragraph – when you sort the members list alphabetically, and then use the search facility, the SQL query looks like:

SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT u.ID) FROM wp_users u LEFT JOIN wp_usermeta um ON um.user_id = u.ID LEFT JOIN wp_bp_xprofile_data pd ON u.ID = pd.user_id WHERE u.user_status = 0 AND (pd.field_id = 1) AND pd.value LIKE ‘%%searchterm%%’ ORDER BY pd.value ASC;

It assumes pd.field_id = 1, which is the Name field – why does it assume you only care about searching on the Name field when ordering alphabetically? And how would I best modify this to search on a) the text values of all my text profile fields, and b) the labels on multiple option profile fields?

From PM Re: “

Awesome thanks for your help. I just realized I wasn’t on the latest Beta version ( I thought I was)

The new versions automatic thumbnails works really awesome.

I am noticing one bug, in the activity stream (domain.com/activity)

It shows the picture and everything, but the link to them is not working right it has this URL:

http://domain.com/members/admin/album/single-media/6/

When I browse to the picture itself using the “media” tab the url that works should be:

http://domain.com/members/admin/album/single-album/1/single-media/6/M/

(it’s also sometimes O instead of M)

Any ideas why that would be happening? Is this the best place to post these type of questions?

…

The activity stream bug was reported by @connor-mccarra this morning. We’ll fix it in the next beta, out in a few days.

The “http://domain.com/members/admin/album/single-album/1/single-media/6/M/” where the suffix may be T, P, S, M, L, or O is the plugin automatically selecting the best image size to fit in your template.

It has to account for some users uploading very large images, and some users uploading very small images, resulting in there may or may not being various downsampled sizes in the cache. It uses a nearest-fit algorithm to determine which size is closest to “medium” and serves that image.

All of this will be configurable in the backend, allowing different sites to be optimized for say, photographers -vs- mobile phones.

Hello again. I posted this question on a new topic, no responses. I’ll try asking the question here since I have received responses on this thread. Thank you. Here goes:

I added the code below in wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/members/members-loop.php, to display additional profile fields in the member directory and to display the member’s role (either ‘Subscriber’ or ‘Provider’). In the code below, I specifically checked for the user’s role to determine whether I need to display ‘Subscriber’ or ‘Provider’.

Questions:

– is there a way to check for the capability instead – i.e., if the user can ‘edit posts’ then I will display ‘Subscriber’, otherwise I will display ‘Provider’? If so, can you please let me know how to do that as I have not been able to figure it out.

– is there a way to display a newline so that ‘Subscriber’ or ‘Provider’ will display on the next line, below the member’s title and company name. I tried to echo “n” but it’s not outputting a newline and I have no idea why.

Thank you for the help.

Okay, clearly there’s something wrong in the plugin code, so I’m going to have to figure out:

a) What your systems have in common, and

b) What’s different between your systems and my system (because obviously it works on my system …lol).

So, some questions for all four of you:

1) What OS is your server running on (linux, windows, etc)

2) What OS is your browser operating on?

3) What browsers have you tried, and what happened in them (Opera, Safari, FireFox, IE, and Chrome)

4) What version of WP are you using. Is it single or MU?

5) Do you have any other plugins running? What are they? Does it still crash when you disable them?

6) Can you please post a copy of your wp error log file. Located in the /wp-admin/er-logs/ directory.

7) Can you please post a copy of your apache error log file. If you’re testing on xampp it’s located in xampp/apache/logs/error.log If you’re testing on a web host, you’ll need to download or ask them for a copy.

If you guys give us good debugging info, hopefully we can get this nailed in a couple of hours.

Thanks!

@jivany oh yea wpmu. so all i need to do is turn on the create a blog option and all my members will automatically have blogs….and they’ll have non-editable username domains? Sounds too good to be true.

my questions were more for getting legacy members outfitted with blogs after the fact. I don’t want to turn on the create a blog option just yet, i’m actually working towards bundling the option into 1. User signs up and they auto have a blog with their user name as their domain. I know i could remove the “just a username” button leaving the gimme a blog and that I think auto gives the user a blog with username as domain. that’s all good…

I’m refering to mass editing all those older members to give them blogs, without having to do it 1×1 or asking them to do it. there’s a couple of premium plugins that sound my do the trick but I just don’t know if they create blogs for existing members.

I’ve been to the mu forums…just trying to see if anyone here has tried something like this.

Oh and how would you limit the amount of activity shown?

Is there a post which discusses the type of questions i’m asking? I couldn’t find one.
