I gave it a try and created a set of matching bp groups and wp child-pages (under the "groups" page). Then I inserted the following page query into my empty groups/single/front.php template. <code> 'page', 'pagename' => bp_the_group() ); query_posts( $args ); ?> the_title(); <?php edit_post_link( __( '{ Edit }', 'mysite' ), '', '' ); ?> </code> This renders the titles and content from ALL pages that match bp-group names ... hmmm. Do I need to do something with my query or loop to indicate that <code> 'pagename' => bp_the_group()</code> refers only to THIS group's name? Other than that hitch, this seems to be a good alternative to creating a separate cpt.

I need it for a theme I'm redesigning. Is this possible? I want to use a short code within a post to do this. Not do it via PHP. Thanks Johnny Hi,

Can you make an 11th short code that gets the current user that’s logged in profile avatar?

I need it for a theme I’m redesigning.

Is this possible? I want to use a short code within a post to do this. Not do it via PHP.

Thanks

For my website, the whole point of using this plugin is because people don't know the username, so therefore they wouldn't be able to add it in... But I love it. Is there a way to be able to type @ and have the list show up? GREAT JOB I really hope this would be a quick fix! Yes, I would agree with Darin.

As I asume you have some experience with the whole buddypress stuff you may be able to help me with a huge problem I'm facing. I'd like to change the xprofile-fields to have profile fields for a couple (not all fields but a few). For example if there's the question: How old are you. Here I would like to have to dateboxes instead of one. So their must be two in the registration and in the actual profile. Do you have any idea how to manage this? Thanks a lot and I really like your great tips Vanima Hi Bowe

I mean check out the core code , if you know little php you'll see all the unnecessary function calls and code duplication. I've used the old version of BP developed by Andy and it was OK back then, but now the 1.5 ,it's a fucking mess, especially the FUGLY default theme. FUJ BAH! Also the CORE DEVS and community seem to be ignorant toward others who wants to get involved! bp has become a fucking joke.
