BuddyPress.org

I can’t find a ticket, but I’m pretty sure it’s come up before somewhere — probably buried in the depths of trac…

Roger’s solution would be to modify Post and Page activity items to link to the ?p=… link format; those do a canonical redirect to the “real” URL, so such a change wouldn’t affect search engines.

However, we’ve finished work on BP 1.6. We’re going to put out a release candidate very very soon, so this issue would have to be considered for a future version of BuddyPress.

@dvd3141 If you can make an enhancement ticket on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ so this isn’t forgotten about please.

Yes, the activity stream items are created at the time a post is created, so the bug is explicable. Surprised it’s not been encountered before ( @djpaul – have you noticed this previously? ).

I suspect the best solution is to store the links in the activity stream in a ‘permalink neutral’ way, and then apply a filter that ‘adds’ the current permalink structure to them when they are displayed / accessed.

Not possible. BuddyPress doesnt’ use WordPress user roles or capabilities, so I don’t think we can do this granularly at the moment.

No, where your navigation is ( most probably in header.php ), place the last code snippet i posted.

Don’t install the plugin i posted, it was simply to give you an idea of the bp member links

The plugin i posted was a guide line, place this somewhere within your theme: http://pastebin.com/JLjMynR0

If the user is logged in, it will show up. It is a link to the users @Mentions

WP themes which are updated to latest WP versions like Twenty Ten and Twenty Eleven plus BuddyPress’ own bp-default theme have custom menu functions you’ll find in Appearance > Menus.

Just create a link named “Community” and add whatever links you want under it.
e.g. for bp-default theme or its child theme https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/how-to-set-up-your-main-site-navigation-using-the-built-in-wordpress-menus/

@hornet1968 if you’re using a WP theme, you also need to install/activate the BP Template Pack plugin and go through Appearance > BP compatibility process. We have a list of “template-packed” WP theme near the bottom of this page https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/

User levels were replaced by roles in WP 2.0, and were deprecated in 3.0 — so, checking wp_user_level and such like shouldn’t be relied on

https://codex.wordpress.org/User_Levels

hi,,

global $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();
$userLevel = $current_user->wp_user_level;

switch ($userLevel){
//https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities
case 0: $_SESSION = 2; break; // member
case 1: $_SESSION = 2; break; // Contributor
case 2: $_SESSION = 1; break; // author
case 3: $_SESSION = 1; break; // author
case 4: $_SESSION = 2; break;
case 5: $_SESSION = 2; break;
case 6: $_SESSION = 2; break;
case 7: $_SESSION = 2; break;
case 8: $_SESSION = 0; break;
case 9: $_SESSION = 0; break;
case 10: $_SESSION = 0; break; // admin
default: $_SESSION = 3; // guest
}

and read this https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities

This was from a plugin I developed for a site, you should find just about everything you need in there, and if not have enough of an understanding to fill in any ones that aren’t covered: http://pastebin.com/xC1jd4vv

next time wait a day, I’d say that’s the average response time, if it’s sooner, be grateful!

Are you being serious? You are asking just 1 hour later, why no-one has responded to your question?

You can’t add conditional menus / menu options via the WordPress menu settings in wp-admin.

If you want conditional menus, and those with PHP driven dynamic links (e.g. changing for the current user), you will have to code them in your header / navigation templates.

Are you using a plugin to create your user levels? If so, which one? WordPress supports roles and capabilities for users by default, but doesn’t have numeric levels.

If s2member have a look at their documentation for if queries on member level.

@b1gft there are a couple of simple ways to go about deleting “freshness” from group forums

1. Simplest of the rest -> Just add the following at the bottom of your theme’s style.css file
`span.time-since { display: none !important; }`

or 2. Copy over https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.6/bp-themes/bp-default/forums/forums-loop.php to your themes /forums folder, open it up and delete line #85

or 3. filter bp_the_topic_time_since_last_post in functions.php
