Group Component Activity
-
Hi, I was wondering if any one could point out how to update a Group Component’s Activity in the Group.
It seems simple enough except that my Group Component IS a group (I have implemented parent / child) groups.Just to elaborate:
Parent groups URLS are like this:
http://domain.com/groups/Parent_Group_Name
In there, there are links to {child_groups}, however when user clicks on the child group link, it still navigates to
http://domain.com/groups/Child_Group_Name.
So, in a nutshell, my “group component” is essentially a group itself. Meaning it has all BP Group functionality including activities.
So my question is, how would I link / update “Child Group” Activity streams in the the “Parent Group” stream.
I have succesfully modified the groups loop to exclude child groups from showing up in the results. (Only Parent Groups are returned if a Child Group is found).
I tried modifying the activities loop to include child group activities in a parent group loop but my method will mean I would have to rewrite the template tags! A
Any one have any experience with this?

The groups loop works brilliantly:
`<?php if ( bp_has_groups( bp_ajax_querystring( 'groups' ) ) )
>-
<?php
-
<a href="”>
<a href="”>
id ) ?>
id ) ?>
-
<a href="”>
<a href="”>
id ) ?>
id ) ?>
// get all the ids of all the groups
global $groups_template, $bp; $group_ids = custom_group_type::get_current_group_ids();foreach( $groups_template->groups as $group ):
//check if child group – )
// function is_child_group() returns parent group id if true or false if not.if( $parent_group_id = custom_group_type::is_child_group( $group->id ) )
{
//remove the child group so it doesn’t appear in the main groups loop
unset( $group );// Check if parent group is already in the loop
if( in_array( $parent_group_id, $group_ids ) )
{
continue;
}
else
{
// if the parent group is not in the loop, initiate it and display it.
$parent_group = groups_get_group( array( ‘group_id’ => $parent_group_id ) );?>
<?php
}
}
// continue with the normal loop
else
{
?><?php
}
endforeach; ?>`
