BuddyPress.org

sorry. right now the page with the list of all the members uses a wordpress page called ‘Members’. a page showing an individual member’s information draws on the same wordpress page.

is it possible to have one wordpress pag (say, ‘Member Directory’) and a different one (‘Member Profile’) that dynamically shows an individual member’s information?

does that make sense?

Okay, I did those changes (shown below). I still see no additional role added to the WordPress extended profile. I should be able to see it there. Correct?

<?php

/*
*
*/
function custom_member_types(){
	bp_register_member_type('role', array('labels' => array('name' => 'role', 'singular_name' => 'role')));
}

add_action('bp_init', 'custom_member_types');

?>

UPDATE:

I have created a plugin so when I add <div id="hollysage" style="padding-bottom:10px;"></div> within my sites template it track the age and shows Holly Willoughby is 34 years 10 months and 19 days old. as text anywhere I chose to place it.

What I need now is so it automatically post on all users activity feeds. Happy Birthday Holly. on every 10th of February regardless of the year. This date and only on this date. Any help would be appreciated! The plugin I have is housed in a folder called hollysage The following files are in there.

Config.php

<?php

// Language file

	require_once(CURRENTDIR . '/language_cn.php');

}

define('TIMEZONE', get_option('gmt_offset'));

// Holly Willoughbys Date of birth
$bornYear = 1981;
$bornMonth = 2;
$bornDay = 10;

language_en.php

<?php

$lang['day'] = " days";
$lang['and'] = " and ";
$lang['fullstop'] = " old.";
$lang['happybirthday'] = "Happy Birthday Holly Willoughby.";

?>

To use it currently I add

<div id="hollysage" style="padding-bottom:10px;"></div>

Can someone help me with adding a status update as detailed above at the start of this support topic request?

Thanks!

@Mark … I tested it with Twenty Fifteen WordPress Standard Theme and the problem happens. Then it is not properly a theme problem

I use the woothemes Canvas Theme release 5.9.3 and 5.9.15 (the latest).

To make work properly rtmedia was necessary add a fixing in the child theme functions.php and it worked properly:

// BuddyPress - Fixing for rtMedia
function rtmedia_main_template_include($template, $new_rt_template) { 
	global $wp_query; 
	$wp_query->is_singular = true; 
	return get_page_template(); 
} 
add_filter('rtmedia_main_template_include', 'rtmedia_main_template_include', 20, 2);

In any case, if with the standard wordpress theme the problem happens and then it could not be a theme problem, then rtmedia could have some conflict with another module.

Anyway, I will open an account on the rtmedia website and i will open a ticket, adding screenshots of the problem.

Kind regards
