Great! Thank you very much for responding and the clear instruction.

Toni started the topic Request: option to restrict a Group by admin invite, not visibility. in the forum Creating & Extending 9 years, 7 months ago

Request: I would like to have the option for a Group Membership to be admin invite only but allow public visibility and possibly download or at least visual access to media, docs, etc.

Purpose: I have a Group restricted to my students – for homework, class matters, etc.
I want other BP members to see what we do and possibly be able to download…[Read more]

Toni started the topic Add new LMS to current BP, not BP to LMS in the forum Creating & Extending 9 years, 7 months ago

I am confused about how any particular LMS and BuddyPress visually integrate. There are several LMS systems. Some LMS systems’ have plugins to integrate BuddyPress – but is the LMS system GUI/site the main landing site and you add BP to it?

I would like to add an LMS under a BuddyPress site. The main landing site would be BuddyPress, ideally…

Thanks for the input @danbp and @sbradjesh.

Dan – thanks for the suggestion, but I was able to get the types all along. 🙂
Bradjesh – you’re right regarding the order but I thought i was able to do this before, especially working with plugins that I needed to work with the member type for some logic. I made adjustments based on your suggestion. 🙂

Milan Petrovic started the topic bbPress forums conditionals in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 9 years, 7 months ago

Hi,

When using legacy bbPress component in BuddyPress, you can use ‘bp_is_group_forum()’ to determine if the forum page is loaded inside the group. But, that doesn’t work if using bbPress (not legacy) forums. What are the conditional functions related to bbPress plugin group forums?

The most recent version of BuddyPress should work with the most recent version of WordPress. Can you describe the problem you’re seeing?

The BuddyPress template hierarchy will help you customise your site’s pages. Check out this article:

Brajesh Singh replied to the topic Where is BUddypress Member Profile Link? in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 9 years, 7 months ago

HI,
Please visit Dashboard->Appearance->Menus and from the SCreen Options(Top right link), you can enable “BuddyPress”.

Once you have checked it, A section named “BuddyPress” will appear under Pages. You can select the link/customize it for various profile links there.

Hope that helps.

Hi David,
Most probably you are trying to access the member type directly in the functions.php. That is too early for it. A member type is only available on/after bp_init action. It is actually registered on bp_init priority 2.

My suggestion will be to wrap the code that accesses the member type in a function and call it on bp_init or…[Read more]

David Bisset started the topic bp_get_member_type not returning value: 'Invalid Taxonomy' in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 9 years, 7 months ago

I’m going to break this down as simple as possible, because it’s a little nuts. Using the latest versions of WordPress and BuddyPress, no other plugins unless otherwise mentioned. Default WP theme.

1. Go ahead and register a BuddyPress member type in bp-custom.php like…[Read more]

Paul Wong-Gibbs replied to the topic How to Restore a deleted Group in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 9 years, 7 months ago

No, I’m afraid not. Nothing in BuddyPress has “trash”-like behaviour, allowing easy restores (to be honest, some of the extended profile stuff does but it’s a bit obscure to understand how that works). 🙁

You’d need to restore the appropriate data from the wp_BP_groups, wp_BP_groups_groupmeta, wp_BuddyPress_groups_members tables, from a database backup.

Paul Wong-Gibbs replied to the topic Dynamic Profil Link in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 9 years, 7 months ago

The code that @wmcomdesigns provided is PHP and intended to be used in a template.

@planetoffitness There is built in dynamic link support for member profiles. e.g. try http://example.com/members/me/activity/mentions/ on your site (changing the domain obviously) to redirect to the logged-in user’s activity mentions page.

Paul Wong-Gibbs replied to the topic Access to uploaded Images in the forum How-to & Troubleshooting 9 years, 7 months ago

Not out of the box, no. I don’t know if any plugins etc exist to do this.

This is a disaster! No one can find the menu for Users with Profile, Settings, Edit, etc. I couldn’t find it for weeks.

I need to create a link to include in the main menu for Users to get to their page. Side bar Profile link too.

I couldn’t find the user menu – with the access to Profile, Settings, etc. for weeks. My users aren’t tech savvy or very web experienced, they’ll never find it.

I found the hidden menu on the site with the BP links in place. Terrible placement.
