BuddyPress.org

Shouldn’t a User promoted to Group Moderator be able to moderate content in that Group, regardless of their WP Role and capabilities?

Sounds logic, but No. See documentation in bp-core/bp-core-caps.php for the “why”. 😉

Since BP 1.6, group moderators can only delete, move, spam group forum content.

Are you sure you’ve translated this label: Friends <span class="%s">%s</span>

Did you include this Sources Keyword when creating the translation .mo in poEdit: _x()

The Friends label is generated by __() and _x(), depending on the context.

Sure!

See here for where your filter will be applied. Here is documentation on apply_filters_ref_array() (it’s almost identical to apply_filters()). And you’ll need to use add_filter() to hook your filter function to the hook.

If you’re new to filter hooks, try searching for some tutorials, there’s so much info available already. Hope this info helps!

Was my suggestion any use?

Basically, I would like to call the activity stream of an author of a page.

I understood that to mean “Output an activity loop on a WordPress page limited to activity items belonging to the page author”.

If my understanding is wrong, then please let me know.

haha, I’ll take your 2 days and raise you another 3!

If i get anywhere I will defo post it here. Haven’t found anything on the forums that’s helped so far (at least anything that I recognise as being a solution). I’m fairly new to php. Been through the plugin files and found a number of functions which are likely being used (not 100%), but just not able to call them to the new tab I’ve created.

Currently working through reading Henry’s links above on the WordPress Codex and will have a fiddle around.

Hi @urbanfix

Here’s the standard loop taken from here.

<?php if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( 'activity' ) ) ) : ?>
    <?php while ( bp_activities() ) : bp_the_activity(); ?>
 
        <?php locate_template( array( 'activity/entry.php' ), true, false ); ?>
 
    <?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

If you scroll down the page and take a look at filtering options, you’ll see user_id. So your loop will look something like this:

$post = get_post( get_the_ID() );
$filter = '&user_id=' . $post->post_author;

if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( 'activity' ) . $filter ) ) :
    while ( bp_activities() ) : bp_the_activity();
        locate_template( array( 'activity/entry.php' ), true, false );
    endwhile;
endif;

Note: I haven’t tested.

Caveat: This must be used within The Loop.

sorry i don’t know any plugins or how to hack it but i think that would make a great feature suggestion for core if you can please add it to trac here:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org

if not let me know and i’ll add it.

Hi @spanda,

it’s a bbpress bug who remains since BP 2.0.
A patch was provided 7 mounth ago but not applied in latest bbP (2.5.6).

Note that the patch contains a bracket error: ( component ) ) { ). Remove { !

Open wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/activity.php

Remove or comment line 279 & 280 and replace by

$existing = new BP_Activity_Activity( $activity_id ); 
 		if ( empty( $existing->component ) )

save and you’re done.

Hello

Not sure where this question fits. If I go to login through the Buddypress login dashboard and only enter my user name then login, I’m taken to the WordPress login page. Is there a way to take me to keep me on the buddypress login page with an error message?

Equally is there a function for ‘forgotten password’ without going through the WordPress login page?

Gary

I would google wordpress appointment plugin

There seems to be some options, you don’t necessarily need BuddyPress

copy your database through mysql or whatever (check that box to “add drop table” or whatever it’s called!) – wordpress.org has info about that in the codex
https://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database

copy all your files.

download, upload, import database.. pray.

https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress

Check folder permissions… check that your wp-config has new database name and pass..

hi @dani-girl,

intersting question, but thought you’re wrong about Directive 95/46/CE. You have a too strict opinion ! If it would be real, nobody in Europe couldn’t use WordPress and probably also many other CMS’s.
Which is the EU country you are off ?

An e-mail is a personnal data and the directive applies. But…

WordPress need it (username, email and password) to work on registering. That is a legitimate and technical reason, which is allowed.

You don’t collect it illegaly, or by roundabout and the user has access to it any time. Emails never appear publicly on WP and are used for internal purpose only.

Opt-in is mandatory since 2002 in Europe. This means you have to prevent/ask the user before he sign in.
If you clearly write and expose publicly (and easy to access) your policy, explain why you ask the mail, that you freely remove any user data on demand for example, you can ask for an email. This is also valuable for cookies. You should inform the user that you use them… Resaling and forwarding emails for commercial purpose is of course forbidden, but only IF your site has no direct reason to do that. (e-commerce is not a direct reason 😉 )

On the other side, as site owner, you can’t use your members email for advertisement or any other mailing action without their agreement. Or you will be considered as spammer. Which is also illegal in EU.
