Hi @myg0t ,
Try doing this:
function my_oembed_function( $value ) {
global $wp_embed;
$value = $wp_embed->autoembed( $value );
return $value;
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'my_oembed_function' );Please note I’ve not had a chance to test.
I’m assuming bp_get_the_profile_field_value is the right hook here. Grateful if someone could shout out if I’m wrong.
@henrywright Thanks for the reply!
unfortunately, that did not work.
I tried putting it in both my childtheme/functions.php and my plugins/buddypress/bp-custom.php and no dice. :\
@myg0t , try the code below
// Enable oembed in profile
function bp_youtube_in_profile() {
add_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'bp_enable_youtube_in_profile', 9, 3 );
}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'bp_youtube_in_profile', 0 );
function bp_enable_youtube_in_profile( $val, $type, $key ) {
$field = new BP_XProfile_Field( $key );
$field_name = $field->name;
$val = strip_tags( $val );
if( strtolower( $field_name ) == 'YOUR FIELD NAME' ) {
return wp_oembed_get( $val, array('width'=>300) );
}
return $val;
}
@myg0t I think the problem is with the hook I’ve used. How did you get on with @naijaping ’s code?
@naijaping Sadly, it is not working still 🙁
I tried the code in both childtheme/functions.php and plugins/buddypress/bp-custom.php…
Just to clarify I should be using a link like this, yes?
VIDEO
thanks guys,
\M
@myg0t
I haven’t tried the above code, but the location of bp-custom.ph p should be /wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php
@aces
hmmm… Your exactly right… Now that you say that, I had it in the plugins folder at one point, but some where along the lines I some how moved it over to the buddypress folder.. Not sure why…
Either way, I moved it back to the plugins folder and still nothin’ 🙁
@myg0t ,
did you remember to change the field name (YOUR FIELD NAME)to the name you call it in your?
I am currently using the code and working fine for me.
Hmm, yes I did.
Just to clarify, it should be fine putting this in my functions.php, right?
This is what I have:
// Enable oembed in profile
function bp_youtube_in_profile() {
add_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'bp_enable_youtube_in_profile', 9, 3 );
}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'bp_youtube_in_profile', 0 );
function bp_enable_youtube_in_profile( $val, $type, $key ) {
$field = new BP_XProfile_Field( $key );
$field_name = $field->name;
$val = strip_tags( $val );
if( strtolower( $field_name ) == 'Spotlight Video' ) {
return wp_oembed_get( $val, array('width'=>300) );
}
return $val;
}I assume spaces in the field name aren’t an issue right?
thanks,
\M
@myg0t ,
space could be an issue, try a single name and also it is case sensitive.
regards
Yeah, still nothin 🙁
I’ve also tried making the field a text box instead of a text-area. That didn’t change anything either lol.
I just tested Oembed in an activity stream and it works fine..
No clue whats going on here…
Thanks for all help @naijaping !
\M
