Need to customize my buddypress theme Template Stack

    Hi

    I request your help today for something quite simple (i expect).
    But i can’t find a working solution with the buddypress function ‘bp_register_template_stack’

    I need to change the last part of all my template stack url to target another folder in my theme « sage »
    this is because i’m using sage.io starter theme. The theme use the Laravel Blade templating system

    initial stack was :
    /app/public/app/themes/sage/resources/buddypress

    but i need to use :
    /app/public/app/themes/sage/resources/views/buddypress

    here is my try (in my functions.php) :

    /**
* Buddypress template stack adaptation for Blade Sage.io templating
* @link 
* example @link http://www.generalthreat.com/2013/08/grappling-with-bp-theme-compatibility/
*
* maybe try: bp_locate_template to test the hook 
* initial one was :
* /app/public/app/themes/sage/resources/buddypress
*/

function md_bp_blade_register_template_location() {
    // return STYLESHEETPATH . '/views/buddypress/';
    return TEMPLATEPATH . '/views/buddypress';

   // return '/app/public/app/themes/sage/resources/views/buddypress';
}

if( function_exists( 'bp_register_template_stack' ) ) {
 bp_register_template_stack( 'md_bp_blade_register_template_location', 1 );
}

    any idea how to make this function work?

    So it was working before you changed the file location?

    And now, the error is what exactly ?

    afaik, TEMPLATEPATH is deprecated.
    Try using get_template_directory() or get_stylesheet_directory()

    And bp_register_template_stack should be hooked on bp_init.

    Interesting problem… I’ve never used that theme.

    Just curious – under settings /wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-settings
    which Template Pack is selected? Try switching it.

    Hi @shanebp
    Thanks for your recommandations, you’re right.
    I’ve made it working by putting my snippet in bp-custom.php like this:

    
/**
* Buddypress template stack adaptation for Blade Sage.io templating
* @link 
* example @link http://www.generalthreat.com/2013/08/grappling-with-bp-theme-compatibility/
*
* initial one was :
* /app/public/app/themes/sage/resources/buddypress
*/

// will return something like '/app/public/app/themes/sage/resources/views';

function md_bp_blade_register_template_location() {
    // return STYLESHEETPATH . '/views/buddypress/';
    return TEMPLATEPATH . '/views';
}

// replace bp template parts syntaxe with the template overload from sage Blade types
// see: http://hookr.io/functions/bp_get_template_part/
function md_blade_replace_template( $templates, $slug, $name ) {

    // Overload the bp template
	
	$templates = array(); // empty it
 	
    if ( isset( $name ) ) {  
        $templates[] = $slug . '-' . $name . '.blade.php'; 
    }
    else {
        $templates[] = $slug . '.blade.php';
    }

    //print_r($templates);
    return $templates;
}

add_action( 'bp_init', function () {

	//error_log("bp init loaded");

	// custom url stacks for blade '/views' folder
	// working but Blade Syntax is not interpreted ...
	
    if( function_exists( 'bp_register_template_stack' ) ) {
        bp_register_template_stack( 'md_bp_blade_register_template_location', 1 );
    }
    
    // we also have to filter the render file extension (.blade.php) 
   // for Buddypress components tpl parts
	add_filter( 'bp_get_template_part', 'md_blade_replace_template', 10, 3 );

	// http://buddypress.wp-a2z.org/oik_api/bp_locate_template/
	//add_action( 'bp_locate_template', 'md_blade_locate_template', 1, 6);

});

    But this technique doesn’t work with bp ajax for example when bp groups loop is reloaded with ajax

    I’m sure there is something to do with bp_locate_template() or bp_locate_template_and_load()
    to inject correctly my buddypress templates in the_content from mytheme/resources/views/buddypress (instead of mytheme/resources/buddypress/)

    By the way i’m using the Sage starter theme https://roots.io/sage/

    Any idea?
