Topic: BuddyPress Profile Data as Print / Save as PDF Option for Users

in forum Creating & Extending
harpodjc
Participant
Hi Guys. Any possible help or info on this topic would be greatly appreciated.

WordPress version – Latest Updated Version
BuddyPress version – Latest Updated Verion

Here is the what I am trying to achieve with the BuddyPress Plugin for my Users.

To create a ‘Print Profile Data as PDF” as an option within the BP User Nav section. Please see images –

I want the user’s Profile Data and custom fields to display as a Print / Save as PDF option when the user clicks and selects it.

It will generate this dynamic data in a presentable layout.

Any advice or alternative PHP options for this option creation would be most greatly welcome. My print.css style-sheet is currently blank. I’ve no idea of the coding that needs to go into it to finish this idea below and make it work.

Please Help!!!

=============================================================================================
The Modification’s I have completed to date to get it this far!!!
=============================================================================================

Creating Profile Print Navigation

Created a print.css file in the WP Theme Folder.

> WP Theme Folder folder / functions.php file.
Added this custom code:
wp_enqueue_style( 'thrive-print', get_template_directory_uri() . '/print.css', array(), 'print' );

> Next – Theme > inc folder and opened up extras.php & added this code below:
```
function theme_print_nav() {
    global $bp;
    $args = array(
            'name' => __('Print PDF', 'buddypress'),
            'slug' => '#',
            'default_subnav_slug' => '#',
            'position' => 30,
            'show_for_displayed_user' => false,
            'item_css_id' => 'print-pdf'
    );
    bp_core_new_nav_item( $args );
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'theme_print_nav', 99 );
```
It added a Print PDF navigation in the Profile Menu.

Lastly I went to Theme > js folder and open theme.js file.
Added this line of code.

$("#user-print-pdf").attr("href", "javascript:window.print()");

The Print Feature was then added to site.

=======================================================================================

This is as far as I have got. Any suggestions guys on how to sync / finish this would be amazing 🙂

Thanks a mill,

David.

In that case you could embed some CSS into the <head> section using the wp_head hook.

@earl_d

As the registration process can be different according to WordPress configs, can you please provide some details about yours :
– Multisite ? If so is BuddyPress network activated or activated on a specific blog of the network
– Plugins ? Especially the ones that might play into the registration process.

FYI, i’ve just rechecked on 2 freshes WordPress configs (regular & multisite) having only the BuddyPress plugin activated. Registration is working great.

Did anything else update at the same time? Anything?

2.5.3 contained changes to email implementation, and a security fix regarding user activation. The latter is most likely cause.

What theme are you using? Do you have a custom registration template (did you make one)? What other plugins do you have running? Are you on multisite or regular WordPress?

Can you think of any other useful information regarding any customisations around user or site registration?

@nnyorker you’re probably activated a standalone BuddyPress theme that has no support for the cover image feature.

I advise you to have a look at this post:
BuddyPress 2.4.0 will introduce Cover Images for members & groups!

Thank you for getting in contact with the BuddyPress team. Some of the attitudes displayed in this discussion have not been respectful and are not conducive to a productive conversation, so I am going to close this topic for that reason only. If anyone has questions about this moderation action and is prepared to discuss them civily, you can find my contact details on https://profiles.wordpress.org/djpaul/.

All projects, including bbPress, BuddyPress, and WordPress, appreciate responsible reporting of suspected vulnerabilities. Read this page on the WordPress site for reporting guidelines for all the aforementioned projects: https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/testing/reporting-security-vulnerabilities/

@djsteveb On the whole, the BuddyPress team enjoys a good working relationship with rtMedia, and we have often discussed issues when it’s vague when the root cause lies. I appreciate that it’s frustrating to be passed from pillar-to-post when you’re trying to get support or report a problem. If you still have the information, I’d encourage you to get in contact with the rtMedia team to start the conversation.

Hi @paulrooms

The Italian translation of BuddyPress is up to date: https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/it/default/wp-plugins/buddypress

For the menu items (at least what I think you mean), you’ll need to go into wp-admin > Pages > Edit, and just rename/translate the pages yourself.

In reply to: email notification activity stream

Paul Wong-Gibbs
Keymaster

@alexdex, there’s no point in shouting. As @sharmavishal and @danbp have said, you’d need to develop a custom notification and to do that, you’ll need a basic understanding of PHP and a familiarity with WordPress’ APIs for plugin development.

You’ll be lucky to find someone with enough time and desire to figure this out for your free, to be honest. I think writing such a thing, while it seems simple, could get pretty complicated because of the number of places the Activity Stream is used, and the various internal config tweaks for each.

In reply to: Creating/sending HTML emails

Paul Wong-Gibbs
Keymaster

@navyspitfire BuddyPress does not use wp_mail(), so any calls to that function are ignored and not treated with BuddyPress’ email templating.

If your BuddyPress emails were being sent plain text, then that means you have a plugin that re-declares the wp_mail() function — probably your SMTP plugin, I’d guess. There are other SMTP plugins that don’t redeclare the function, and so compatible with BuddyPress.

We fallback to plain text in these cases to maximise compatibility with all the many ways of customising emails that WordPress permits.

The equivalent function is bp_send_email(), and for the type of email you mention, here’s an example usage: https://github.com/buddypress/BuddyPress/blob/master/src/bp-core/bp-core-filters.php#L533

I am trying to build a fan club type site using WordPress and wanted to integrate a community where fans can go to gather online, post stuff, and interact with one another. I’ve a whole lot about buddypress but want to make sure this would be a good solution alongside bbpress? Thoughts? I’ve personally never used this plugin so I wanted to make sure. Would this also work alongside a membership plugin for free and paid memberships like WP Simple Membership?

@shanebp Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
Those are the kind of links I’ve been looking for but couldn’t immediately find the right place to post. So, this forum seemed like the next best thing.

Oh, and just to set the record straight:
It is NOT irresponsible of me to post and vent about this particular issue in a public forum.
It is irresponsible of WordPress to keep this hole open despite having fixed it for their own sites!
THAT’S what’s irresponsible here!
Not posting about an issue that WordPress is well aware of.

In fact, I hope that a bit of public exposure will set fire to the idiot’s asses who are responsible for this gross negligence. Gross negligence can invoke criminal charges and this case here sure does seem like it might be such a case. I feel no pity for people who commit such gross negligence.

Hello,

After following the codex and googling for hours, I just can not set the default cover image for users when they first register. I use the latest version of wordpress and buddypress.

functions.php
```
function your_theme_xprofile_cover_image( $settings = array() ) {
$settings['default_cover'] = 'http://www.planwallpaper.com/static/images/colorful-triangles-background_yB0qTG6.jpg';
 
return $settings;
}
add_filter( 'bp_before_xprofile_cover_image_settings_parse_args', 'your_theme_xprofile_cover_image', 10, 1);
```
member-header.php
```
<?php $cover_image_url = bp_attachments_get_attachment( 'url', array( 'item_id' => bp_displayed_user_id() ) ); ?>
<img src="<?php echo $cover_image_url; ?>">
```
Website: local

Edit: I CAN set an image in the profile tab and it shows up like normal.

what I used to fix some of these permissions issues with a bp / multi-site setup – https://wordpress.org/plugins/press-permit-core/ – not sure if this will work on the other issues mentioned – and not sure how to set things up, as this plugin had pulled in the old settings that I made with the role scoper system some time ago.

You’ll probably want to create a new page and then load a custom template.

In your custom template, you’ll need to create an Activity loop with the parameters that you want.

Sounds like this is your first time performing these tasks.
Give it a serious and thorough attempt and see how far you can get.
If you get stuck, use gist or pastebin to share the code in your custom template.

Please do not paste all the code on these forums.

Thanks for your concern.

The responsible way to report a security issue is to:

1. Tell WP about it

2. Open a ticket here – using the same user/pw you use for these forums.

Hi, was wondering if anyone had any clue as to what could be my issue, I would greatly appreciate it.

Edit: following this tutorial I added the wp_mail ( 'somebody@domain.com', 'Mail subject', 'A <strong>HTML</strong> email' ); line but replaced the third parameter with the HTML email code, and it worked; I got an email with my header/footer HTML/styles. So why aren’t my buddypress/WP email being sent with the HTML code/styles that I’ve declared?

BP xProfile Location creates an xProfile field type.
And it will include any of those field types on the the search form created by BP Profile Search.

I think you want to use Google to auto-populate the textbox(es) created on the search form, based on user input.
That would require custom code added to the BP Profile Search plugin.
You will have to write that code yourself or hire a developer.

Topic: BP Profile Search

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

drumhead

Hello,

I am new to WordPress and Buddypress and have been having trouble figuring this out.

I want to search for users by their BP xProfile using the check box fields combined with their location. The goal is for a user to be able to select someone with a specific criteria (check boxes) and then by zip code or the name of the city state.

I see location as an option when making new fields but really like xProfile Location Version 1.0 and how it autofills the location with either zip or city state. Can this be used in conjunction with the location fields?

And can both of these (checkbox and location) be requested with one request?

WordPress 4.5.2 running Athena Child theme
BP Profile Search Version 4.5.2
xProfile Location Version 1.0

Thanks,
Craig

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

There is a feature in WordPress that’s very useful for a blog owner who administers his/her own blog, but that same feature presented to the user who is NOT a site admin is downright malicious and exposes the site owner to a serious security risk or at least a serious and even more costly privacy risk.
BuddyPress and bbPress are both guilty of doing just that.

But the interesting thing is:
The administrators of BuddyPress.org apparently do have a brain because they’ve made sure that this giant security/privacy hole is closed on this bbPress forum here.

So, WHY THEN ARE THEY EXPOSING every other normal BuddyPress and bbPress user to that malicious behavior of BuddyPress and bbPress???
WHY???

That’s what I wanna know.

Oh, you wanna know what’s that malicious behavior/security risk that BuddyPress and bbPress is exposing you to?
Easy!
Go to your own installation of bbPress, create a new topic/post and while creating it highlight a word and click that “insert link” button you see in the top row!
Does it ring a bell?

In case you are very slow, lemme ring the bell for you here:

First, you need to open your eyes. That’s quite important.
Listening to the bell alone isn’t gonna help you.

Secondly, take a look at that “Or link to existing content” thingy and explore the list that appears below!
See how it lists ALL OF YOUR PAGES including the secret thank-you pages with content that is supposed to be visible ONLY TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE PAID FOR THE PRODUCT!
As well as all of your test pages and other secret/private pages that you don’t want anyone to have access to.

And in case you don’t think that’s a good idea, you are not alone.
The admins of BuddyPress.org don’t think that’s a good idea either.
That’s why on this website, on this bbPress forum here they have removed that security/privacy threat!

That’s right! If you try the “insert link” feature in this forum here, you’ll immediately notice that this malicious “Or link to existing content” feature has been disabled.
It’s not suggesting any of the internal pages on BuddyPress.org here.

GOOD THINKING!
And it’s good to know that at least the admins of BuddyPress.org do have a brain.

Now, in a bbPress forum you could sort of “fix” this issue by making your forum extremely inconvenient for your users.
Just go to your forum settings and uncheck “Add toolbar & buttons to textareas to help with HTML formatting”.

But is that something you really want to do???

Do you really want your forum appear as if was coded in 1997?
Do you really want to deprive all normal forum users of being able to format their posts?
And even users who know HTML, would they want to type HTML markup when posting in a forum?

But hey, while bbPress offers at least a 1997-style kill switch to switch off that malicious behavior of bbPress, BuddyPress does NOT offer such switch at all.

So, if, for example, you have something like BuddyPress Docs installed (a very helpful plugin by the way), then you’ll find yourself facing the same damn problem!

Now for my final question to the admins of BuddyPress.org:
Do you know what negligence is?

You are guilty of negligence because while having protected your own site with some custom coding, you are exposing all other people using your software to a serious security/privacy risk!

FIX IT!
I want people to be able to easily format my forum posts and BuddyPress posts (using TinyMCE) WITHOUT exposing my private pages!
Otherwise I might just as well publish my admin password on my home page.

WHY THE HELL is the custom code that you have implemented on this site here (and on WordPress.org to protect your sites from malicious attacks) is not part of the core BuddyPress code???????

P.S.
I couldn’t keep this post any shorter because when I see such a tremendous amount of stupidity (or negligence in this case) it just drives me mad.

I’ll do my best to answer these before asking my question, per moderator request.
1. Which version of WordPress are you running? 4.5.2

2. Did you install WordPress as a directory or subdomain install? unsure. Installed as program at my host. domain is bennypointer.com

3. If a directory install, is it in root or in a subdirectory?

4. Did you upgrade from a previous version of WordPress? If so, from which version? Not today.

5. Was WordPress functioning properly before installing/upgrading BuddyPress (BP)? e.g. permalinks, creating a new post, commenting. Still working basically

6. Which version of BP are you running? 2.5.9

7. Did you upgraded from a previous version of BP? If so, from which version?

8. Do you have any plugins other than BuddyPress installed and activated? If so, which ones? Buddypress not activated now (BBpress is). Also running Beaver Builder Lite, Page Builder by Site Origin, Site Origins Widgets Bundle, Title Remover, and UPdrafts plus backup. Not my idea to use most of these. . . trying to help a friend out.

9. Are you using the standard WordPress theme or customized theme? Using Off the Shelf theme

10. Have you modified the core files in any way? No

11. Do you have any custom functions in bp-custom.php? Not that I’m aware of unless a plugin altered them

12. If running bbPress, which version? Or did your BuddyPress install come with a copy of bbPress built-in? bbpress 2.5.9

13. Please provide a list of any errors in your server’s log files. n/a

14. Which company provides your hosting? will have to check

15. Is your server running Windows, or if Linux; Apache, nginx or something else? unsure, but Apache, I think.

Bennypointer.com is to have a forum (/forums). I have it built, have registration/login/lost-password pages that seem to work, except upon registration, no email gets sent (doing automatic registration for the moment). I’ve scoured everything I can find, and cannot seem to fix this. Ideas?

Also, I am trying to get a right sidebar on the forum page with registration, etc. but cannot get it up. On Benny’s Forum page (/forums), I have ‘right sidebar’ as page type. I with widgets setup with login URI and lost password URI fields accurate, and did the same at appearance>widgets where there is only Blog Sidebar and Footer listed on the right (where I drag the widgets to). I cannot find a place to “create new sidebar” that I have in my Karma wordpress theme.

Hi @danbp,

The theme itself wasn’t so much custom as just tweaked for purpose, it is a child theme of the Reverie theme (http://themefortress.com/reverie/) which is a foundation and WordPress framework. There weren’t many (if any) theme changes made beyond the style sheet and I there aren’t any Widgets in use beyond the Buddypress sidebar ones.

There are quite a few plugins in use though (23 in total) but when I left all of them activated and switched to the TwentyFifteen theme, the feed posts were visible again.

I’m honestly not sure how to go about debugging this, as I’m a designer primarily and Javascript/PHP are not my strong points. Is there anything you can do to help?

Thanks for your assistance so far!
