BuddyPress.org

That’s the problem – when I try to delete the field from my admin dashboard>users>xprofile fields than the situation I described in the initial post is what is happening. The developers of my theme said they had encountered this as a buddypress issue before and asked me to contact you. As this happens in twenty-fourteen as well I’m assuming it is not a theme issue.

@meebovn Just saw your post. Here is the code I was using. I just load it from it’s own JS file in my functions.php. IIRC most of it is copy-pasta from a buddypress file with w/e tweaking I needed to get it working. It’s not pretty though.

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
	
	/* necessary to get the custom post-form working */
  	//Deregister buddypress built in actions
  	$('#whats-new').off("focus");
  	$('#whats-new-form').off("focusout");
  	$('#whats-new-options').show();
  	$('#aw-whats-new-submit').off('click');

  	/* New posts */
	$('#aw-whats-new-submit').on( 'click', function() {
		var editor = tinymce.get('whats-new');
		editor.save();

		var last_date_recorded = 0,
			button = $(this),
			form   = button.closest('form#whats-new-form'),
			inputs = {}, post_data;

		// Get all inputs and organize them into an object {name: value}
		$.each( form.serializeArray(), function( key, input ) {
			// Only include public extra data
			if ( '_' !== input.name.substr( 0, 1 ) && 'whats-new' !== input.name.substr( 0, 9 ) ) {
				if ( ! inputs[ input.name ] ) {
					inputs[ input.name ] = input.value;
				} else {
					// Checkboxes/dropdown list can have multiple selected value
					if ( ! $.isArray( inputs[ input.name ] ) ) {
						inputs[ input.name ] = new Array( inputs[ input.name ], input.value );
					} else {
						inputs[ input.name ].push( input.value );
					}
				}
			}
		} );

		form.find( '*' ).each( function() {
			if ( $.nodeName( this, 'textarea' ) || $.nodeName( this, 'input' ) ) {
				$(this).prop( 'disabled', true );
			}
		} );

		/* Remove any errors */
		$('div.error').remove();
		button.addClass('loading');
		button.prop('disabled', true);
		form.addClass('submitted');

		/* Default POST values */
		object = '';
		item_id = $('#whats-new-post-in').val();
		content = $('#whats-new').val();
		firstrow = $( '#buddypress ul.activity-list li' ).first();
		activity_row = firstrow;
		timestamp = null;

		// Checks if at least one activity exists
		if ( firstrow.length ) {

			if ( activity_row.hasClass( 'load-newest' ) ) {
				activity_row = firstrow.next();
			}

			timestamp = activity_row.prop( 'class' ).match( /date-recorded-([0-9]+)/ );
		}

		if ( timestamp ) {
			last_date_recorded = timestamp[1];
		}

		/* Set object for non-profile posts */
		if ( item_id > 0 ) {
			object = $('#whats-new-post-object').val();
		}

		post_data = $.extend( {
			action: 'post_update',
			'cookie': bp_get_cookies(),
			'_wpnonce_post_update': $('#_wpnonce_post_update').val(),
			'content': content,
			'object': object,
			'item_id': item_id,
			'since': last_date_recorded,
			'_bp_as_nonce': $('#_bp_as_nonce').val() || ''
		}, inputs );

		$.post( ajaxurl, post_data, function( response ) {
			form.find( '*' ).each( function() {
				if ( $.nodeName( this, 'textarea' ) || $.nodeName( this, 'input' ) ) {
					$(this).prop( 'disabled', false );
				}
			});

			/* Check for errors and append if found. */
			if ( response[0] + response[1] === '-1' ) {
				form.prepend( response.substr( 2, response.length ) );
				$( '#' + form.attr('id') + ' div.error').hide().fadeIn( 200 );
			} else {
				if ( 0 === $('ul.activity-list').length ) {
					$('div.error').slideUp(100).remove();
					$('#message').slideUp(100).remove();
					$('div.activity').append( '<ul id="activity-stream" class="activity-list item-list">' );
				}

				if ( firstrow.hasClass( 'load-newest' ) ) {
					firstrow.remove();
				}

				$('#activity-stream').prepend(response);

				if ( ! last_date_recorded ) {
					$('#activity-stream li:first').addClass('new-update just-posted');
				}

				if ( 0 !== $('#latest-update').length ) {
					var l   = $('#activity-stream li.new-update .activity-content .activity-inner p').html(),
						v     = $('#activity-stream li.new-update .activity-content .activity-header p a.view').attr('href'),
						ltext = $('#activity-stream li.new-update .activity-content .activity-inner p').text(),
						u     = '';

					if ( ltext !== '' ) {
						u = l + ' ';
					}

					u += '<a href="' + v + '" rel="nofollow">' + BP_DTheme.view + '</a>';

					$('#latest-update').slideUp(300,function(){
						$('#latest-update').html( u );
						$('#latest-update').slideDown(300);
					});
				}

				$('li.new-update').hide().slideDown( 300 );
				$('li.new-update').removeClass( 'new-update' );
				$('#whats-new').val('');
				form.get(0).reset();

				// reset vars to get newest activities
				newest_activities = '';
				activity_last_recorded  = 0;
			}

			//$('#whats-new-options').slideUp();
			$('#whats-new-form textarea').animate({
				height:'2.2em'
			});
			$('#aw-whats-new-submit').removeClass('loading');
			$( '#whats-new-content' ).removeClass( 'active' );
		});

		return false;
	});
})

OK, if anyone else was wondering how to do this, it’s simple. Just add this code to functions.php or a mu-plugin and the BuddyPress items disappear.

function remove_admin_menu_items() {
/*Remove Emails from Appearance.*/
	remove_submenu_page( 'themes.php', 'bp-emails-customizer-redirect' );
/*Remove Manage Signups*/
	remove_submenu_page( 'users.php', 'bp-signups' );
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'remove_admin_menu_items' );

Hope that helps someone else. 🙂 Thanks.

I found and added this code to my functions.php within my theme folder – this allows you to sort the members by lastname.

function alphabetize_by_last_name( $bp_user_query ) {
    if ( 'alphabetical' == $bp_user_query->query_vars['type'] )
        $bp_user_query->uid_clauses['orderby'] = "ORDER BY substring_index(u.display_name, ' ', -1)";
}
add_action ( 'bp_pre_user_query', 'alphabetize_by_last_name' );

I then created a custom page template within my theme and pasted the membersloop.php code into that page and made some formatting changes as I only wanted it to affect this one page.

On the line:
<?php if ( bp_has_members( bp_ajax_querystring( 'members' ) ) ) : ?>

I added ‘&populate_extras&type=alphabetical’

so the line now shows as:
<?php if ( bp_has_members( bp_ajax_querystring( 'members' ) . '&populate_extras&type=alphabetical' ) ) : ?>

Hope that helps.

Thank you. FYI I am still having issues:

See ticket I just submitted to my hosting company and their response.

Hello,

I am getting this error:

Warning: include(): Filename cannot be empty in /home/mysite/public_html/wp-content/themes/rehub/buddypress/groups/single/index.php on line 14

Warning: include(): Failed opening ” for inclusion (include_path=’.:/usr/local/php56/pear’) in /home/mysite/public_html/wp-content/themes/rehub/buddypress/groups/single/index.php on line 14

on this page https://www.beforeplastic.com/groups/shop-owners/

Wondering if this is connected to the support ticket submitted yesterday.

Thanks so much

Hello,

Thank you for contacting our Help Desk center!

Indeed, this is caused by changing the PHP version as it was done in the previous ticket. It seems that by solving one problem another one arises and this might mean that something in your website is misconfigured. I recommend you to seek the assistance of a professional developer to find the weak link in the coding of BuddyPress.

If you need further assistance, do not hesitate to contact us again.

My hope is that the BuddyPress developers are already working on a fix to this problem.
Thanks so much!

Thanks for your reply. After making sure the BP version was the latest I switched off the child theme. Then the sliders worked with BP on. I’ve created a new child theme and all seems to run AOK !)
Thanks

Maybe it is a different problem but the striping function doesn’t get applied until the page is refreshed. In the 2015 theme, this happens right away.
