BuddyPress.org

I’m doing this via the bbGroups plugin, and some pretty in depth modifications to the bbPress theme.

I’m working on and off with Burt to try and pass BuddyPress xprofile info to bbPress, as my goal is probably the same as yours and most others; to have all information match across the entire website.

We’re working towards that goal, hopefully soon.

John, I haven’t had time to even delve into the xprofile code yet. I’m going to start working on bbGroups again this evening. There are some ‘tags’ issues poping up I have to work on. If you’ve accomplished the xprofile fields being added I’d love to see how and add it to the plugin if you are so inclined to donate to the effort. If not then I can take a look at that. Let me know.

Oh. I added the ‘editor’ role for the community blogs plugin as you suggested.

Ya you did mention profile data getting to bbpress from bp for users without groups. I don’t see any reason not to do it. The privacy elements rely on the user having a list of their forums in the bb meta data that comes across from bp. No forums means no access. I’ll add that too since I’m now fooling around in that area. Gonna mean some changes to the import routine. I’ll work on it.

Of course I’d like to see it John. I still haven’t looked at xprofile yet.

Well, while the GF is in the shower, I’ll quick do this… Burt this is aimed directly at you, since I gather most others won’t want to do this kind of thing…

oci_bb_group_forums.php:

This prevents wrong inclusion order when using deep forum integration.

if (defined(BACKPRESS_PATH))

require_once( BACKPRESS_PATH . '/class.ixr.php' );

This will return ALL user info, in the event that bbGroups does not exist yet for that user.

function oci_get_userdata($u){

$u = (int) $u;

$user = bb_get_user($u);

if ($user->bbGroups) {

return stripslashes_deep((array)$user->bbGroups);

} else {

return stripslashes_deep((array)$user);

}

}

oci_bp_group_forums.php:

This prevents wrong inclusion order when using deep forum integration.

if (!defined(BBDB_NAME))

require_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . '/class-IXR.php');

This is how I passed the user info over from xprofile to bbGroups:

/**

* oci_get_user_filter()

*

* Live example of how to use the filter mechanism to add info to the data going across to bbpress

* This filter adds the user's forums and forums where the user is staff into the $user array

* @return

* @param associative array $user from oci_get_user()

*/

function oci_get_user_filter($user){

$users_group_info = oci_get_users_group_info($user['id']);



$user['users_forums'] = $users_group_info['forum_ids'];

$user['user_is_staff'] = $users_group_info['staff_ids'];



$user['custom_title'] = bp_get_field_data('Custom Title', $user['id']);

$user['signature'] = bp_get_field_data('Signature', $user['id']);

$user['aim'] = bp_get_field_data('AIM', $user['id']);

$user['yahoo'] = bp_get_field_data('Yahoo!', $user['id']);

$user['gtalk'] = bp_get_field_data('GTalk', $user['id']);

$user['msn'] = bp_get_field_data('MSN', $user['id']);

$user['jabber'] = bp_get_field_data('Jabber', $user['id']);

$user['icq'] = bp_get_field_data('ICQ', $user['id']);



return $user;

}

add_filter('oci_get_user','oci_get_user_filter',10,1);

oci_bb_custom.php

How I transfer the username (just in case fullname hasn’t been edited from wordpress.org transfer – see above oci_get_userdata changes):

function oci_user_name($u){

$bp_user = oci_get_userdata($u);

if ($bp_user['fullname']) {

return $bp_user['fullname'];

} else {

return $bp_user['display_name'];

}

}

bbpress/active-theme/functions.php

What I added to make the custom functions go:

add_filter('get_user_profile_link', 'bppro_user_profile_link', 10, 2);

function bppro_user_profile_link($link, $uid) {

$user = bb_get_user($uid);

return(bb_get_option('wp_siteurl').'/members/' . $user->user_login);

}



function bppro_user_url() {

global $bp;

return($bp->loggedin_user->domain);

}



function bp_check_title($user) {

$user_id = get_post_author_id();

$user = bb_get_user($user_id);

$user_title = $user->bbGroups['custom_title'];



if ($user_title) {

return $user->bbGroups['custom_title'];

} else {

return;

}

}

add_filter('post_author_title', 'bp_check_title');

add_filter('post_author_title_link', 'bp_check_title');



function post_author_signature() {

$user_id = get_post_author_id();

$user = bb_get_user($user_id);

$user_signature = $user->bbGroups['signature'];



if ($user_signature) {

echo '<p class="post-signature">__________<br />' . $user->bbGroups['signature'] . '</p>';

}

}

bbpress/active-theme/post.php

Displays avatar from BuddyPress if it exists, else bbPress/Gravatar. Also displays hooked data from above functions.php:

<div class="threadauthor">

<dl>

<dt><a class="oci-link" href="<?php echo oci_user_link($bb_post->poster_id); ?>"><?php echo oci_user_name($bb_post->poster_id); ?></a></dt>

<dd><span class="oci-title"><?php $patl = post_author_title_link(); ?></span></dd>

<dd><?php if (oci_user_avatar($bb_post->poster_id)) { echo oci_user_avatar($bb_post->poster_id); } else { post_author_avatar_link(); }?></dd>

</dl>

</div>

<div class="threadpost">

<div class="poststuff">

<?php printf( __('Posted %s ago'), bb_get_post_time() ); ?> <a href="<?php post_anchor_link(); ?>">#</a> <?php bb_post_admin(); ?><?php bb_quote_link(); ?>

</div>

<div class="post">

<?php post_text(); ?>

</div>

<?php post_author_signature(); ?>

</div>

I think that makes perfect sense. Don’t forget to make functions for both getting the profile data, and then displaying it back out to bbPress also. I wanted to try and make a function that would either filter or not filter the output, so that I can hook into the field name and decide whether it’s HTML (like a signature) or plain text (like a custom title.)

I thought bbPress had a deep indication, but I couldn’t find one that worked without me telling it what to keep an eye out for.

One of the consts I check for is on the WPMU side also, looking to see if BBP is included already as part of the circle. WPMU doesn’t have a const to tell it if bbPress is included inside it, that’s why I used pre-existing unrelated consts, so that I know that they haven’t been tainted by each others inclusion in either direction.

Well, yes I do, but I’d like it done the right way, and I suspect your way will be better than mine.

If you want some help putting it through the motions, I’ll gladly take some time tomorrow to work your new version into mine.

Cool cool… Can’t wait… I love it! Woo hoo!

Awesome, will check it out today.

On an interesting side note, somewhere along the line I broke my connection from BuddyPress to bbPress again. Ha! I need to stop fidgeting with things soon I think.

Okay, I attempted to import all users, and got this…

Groups with forums enabled - , Forums updated - , Users updated -

Checking to see what happened now…

Looks like nothing happened. No one got their bbGroups like they should have. Going to keep looking…

Importing only groups doesn’t do anything either… Still checking…

So if I use your test rig Burt, I get a 403 Authentication Failed response… wtf… Ha!

But if I revert back to .23 and click on “Import Groups” it gets…

Last import Tuesday 03rd of March 2009 03:32:03 PM, 2 seconds

3 groups with forums enabled

3 forums updated

12 users updated

Okay after all of my tizzying around, I still get this when I try to import…
