Hi,

I understand you don’t support BuddyBoss, but your shortcodes are really helpful and I’m hoping you can fix the error that has cropped up and I’m not sure whether it arrived with a BuddyBoss update or a BP_Profiles_Shortcode update. Not skilled enough to rollback to find when the issue arrived. Anyway, getting the following error (top few lines) when using [bpps_profile_avatar_link] shortcode. BP_Profiles_Shortcode v2.6.0. No error on activation, but critical error when rendering the page.

Using BuddyBoss v2.7.10 and PHP v 7.4.33.

BP Profile Shortcodes Extra is causing a critical error on my BuddyBoss site. Everything’s at the latest versions including PHP. The error is occurring on my BB dashboard where I’m using Elementor to create the page. The plugin won’t load the BB dashboard in live mode or the Elementor page. There has been a critical error on this website.

When adding a new page in wordpress I got this error message for some seconds:

Are you able to fix this?

Hello there,

I can see this would be a very useful plugin, I’m a non-profit trying to create a community using BuddyBoss for my home community. I installed this plugin as it was linked to from the BuddyBoss integrations page, but I got a critical site error when turning on the plugin, so thought I better ask.
WP Version 6.6.1
PHP Version 8.2.21

If I can provide anything further let me know.

Thanks

Hi, I’ve just found that HTML link is not working properly.
A link with user name is shown as raw HTML text file somethinig like “<a href=”https://example.com/members/19f9b887/profile?_wpnonce=f6400a470c/&#8221; >User Name</a>”

This symptom is with version 2.5.3 and 2.5.4. There are no problem with 2.5.2.
I am using it on BuddyBoss Platform, and WordPress Version is 6.5.4.
The shoart code that I use is [bpps_group_members]

I hope you can fix this issue soon.
Thanks,

The latest version of the plugin v2.5.4 throws an error when loading a page with the bpps_group_members shortcode. See error message below.

BuddyBoss Platform Version 2.5.11

BuddyBoss Platform Pro Version 2.4.41

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function bp_get_root_url() in /wp-content/plugins/bp-profile-shortcodes-extra/inc/bppsc-shortcodes-extra.php:1167

Venutius, I am very glad that you are back working on the Bp profile shortcodes extra plugin. Currently due to the buddypress theme I am using I must use block widgets. I have found no way to use your short codes without creating errors in the block widget editor. I’ve tried the short codes widget block, the html widget block, and the widget text block. Do you have any suggestions? I’ve been using your plugin with the classic widgets for years and years and it is brilliant!

I am using the the Shortcodes on the sidebar and they work for the current logged in user, but I would like them to work for the displayed user, instead.

I found this snippet from gamipress / buddypress integration that allows you do exactly what I’m looking for!

https://gamipress.com/snippets/buddypress-integration/force-to-use-buddypress-displayed-user-instead-of-user-logged-in/

So far the the snippet works perfectly for most of the shortcodes, including “bpps_profile_avatar” shortcode. However, it won’t work at all for either of the
“[bpps_profile_username]” OR the “[bpps_profile_displayname]” shortcode.

This is very important for my BuddyBoss website, so would you have any idea why those two wouldn’t work in particular??

Any ideas of help at all would be MUCH appreciated.

Thanks so much

Hi,

I’m having a problem with one block in the BP Profile Shortcodes Extra. I want to use the ‘what’s new’ shortcode; however, it’s not showing options in the ‘Post In:’ section. I was thinking maybe there is something wrong with the code. Any help will be appreciated!

This is the code:

	else

Hello,

I am looking to create a short-code that would allow me to show the Profiles of a certain group only. I have created the below codes but nothing shows up on the page.

These group slugs have members (BuddyPress members)

[bpps_profile_lists per_page=”12″ promoted_groups=”committee-executive″]
[bpps_profile_lists list_type=”members” members_sort=”newest” per_page=”4″ option=”committee-executive”]

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/how-to-increase-the-width-and-height-of-image/
was set to solved with the author quoting it works now but i just cannot get it to work.

I tried to use

[bpps_profile_avatar width="30" height="30"]

[bpps_profile_avatar width=”30px” height=”30px”]

[bpps_profile_avatar size="30"]

[bpps_profile_avatar size=”30px”]

It always seems to stay in 150×150.
Anyone able to help?

Hi, is there a shortcode to show a users profile?

I am setting up my pages with 2 columns. On the left is a custom built sidebar and on the right is any page content.

I was wondering if there was a shortcode to show a users profile which I could put into the second of these two columns.

I’ve tried various ways to get the profile link and send private message link to open in a new window, such as:

[bpps_profile_url text=”Link to Profile” button=”button” target=”_blank” user_id=”X”]

But it’s not working. Is adding target=”_blank” the correct way?

First of all, thank you for such a useful plugin!

I would like users to join suggested groups and add suggested friends from this page: https://consciouskenya.ke/get-started

You have written in the plugin description that For friends and groups suggestions, Group Join and Add Friend links are provided…

I added list_type=”friends_suggest” and list_type=”groups_suggest” but the add/join buttons just don’t show.

How can I make these buttons show under the respective avatars?

I just wanted to leave this here because it could help someone. If you use a shortcode but you get the invalid tab name error or a similar error, it could be because you copied the shortcode from some website and pasted it. When you do that you are copying whatever fancy quotation character that website used.

As long as you manually type in shortcodes you’ll be fine.

I decided to post this here because one of the most popular articles when you search Google right now is from BuddyBoss and they don’t have any of the shortcodes in code blocks which means when you copy and paste from there you will get an error due to copying fancy quotes.

Hi I would like to be able to access one or two Xprofile fields from a pages other than edit profile page. will this plugin enable me to do so? it lookd like I’ll be able to display fields but id like to make them editable. the fields in particular will be limited to drop down selections.

thanks

You and your plugin are AWESOME!

How can I change the output text that [bpps_profile_private_message_link] generates?

it currently says “Private Message <username>” how can I edit “Private Message”?

The profile pic disappeared when we installed the plugin

we used the shortcode as

[bpps_profile_url mention_name = “aditi-jain”]

[bpps_profile_url mention_name= “dhaval-patil108”]

The error we are getting is

//www.gravatar.com/avatar/2bd8a8d1fc973ab371c7a5990cd3a5cd?s=150&r=g&d=https%3A%2F%2Fui-avatars.com%2Fapi%2FAdminAdmin%2F96%2Ff5cd79%2Ffff%2F1%2F0.4%2F%2F1%2F1

Please help me with your email address i will send you the details of the test instance for review.

Hello I have a problem I hope you can help me,

and trying to show the xprofile fields but it tells me it is invalid? some help…

Hello,
Mqy I know how to get the link to the edit page? [bpps_profile_edit_url] is the same as [bpps_profile_url] which is the profile view page not the edit page. Thanks.

I have three tabs on my Buddy press User Fields page.

Account Details tab-1

Member Profile tab-4

Billing Details tab-2

I have a few fields from each of these that I want to display in a given space.

I have tried several variations of the shortcode examples provided and I can’t get any of them to work.

For example I have a field called Member Type on the account details tab and I want to show this in a given space.

What should the shortcode look like?

[bpps_profile_field option=”Two” field=”member_type”]

[bpps_profile_field field=”member_type” tab=”account_details”]

I can’t figure it out.

Hi – I love this plugin and have two of the available shortcodes (Group Avatar List and User Profile Link) working on the same page without any issue.

However, when trying to create another grid of Members in the same way as Groups using the following, nothing is displayed. This is the code as provided by the author of this plugin a year ago:

[bpps_profile_lists list_type=”members” members_sort=”newest” per_page=”4″ option=”avatar-grid-name”]

Help!

Hi There,

I am here just because I want to install worpress updated version to this website: https://www.unifiedinfotech.net/. This website has built on custom PHP. There are not issues I have faced while doing in SEO, responsive, and other issues as well. My website blog is working properly because it has built on WordPress.

Before I proceed further, I want to know some thoughts from you.

Does this website work properly if I migrate this website to WordPress?
Do every plugin work properly?
Do I get every plugin, what I am looking for with updated version?

There are lots of questions in my mind. I want to know the answers.

Prompt reply is highly appreciable.

Thank you in advance

Hello! Love the plugin!

I would love to get [bpps_group_members] to be able to sort by last name, if possible. I know the other shortcodes have sorting options, and would love for this one to be one able to sort by last name.

Anyone know how to accomplish this?

hello, Im pretty happy to how your shortcode has been working in my website, and the “Whats new” shortcode works fine, but I would like to have the options to upload images, gifs, emojis like I can in the proper timeline page from buddyboss,
is there anyway to make this happen?

Hi, is it possible to change the user avatar size using shortcode something like this
[bpps_profile_avatar size= “650”]

How can I list user’s friends list?
I am using [bpps_profile_lists list_type=”friends” ] or [bpps_profile_lists user_id=”3″ list_type=”friends” ]
but no friends are showing

I’m looking to use [bpps_profile_private_message_link]. I can use <?php echo do_shortcode( '[bpps_profile_private_message_link]' ); ?> but this doesn’t allow me to ad the ID user_id=”” e.g. $myuser_id. Is it possible to call it as a function?

Thanks so much for this great plugin.

I do not use groups. I would like to create a gallery of members showing their avatars.

Can you please tell me the shortcode I would use. I’ve tried several but can’t do what I want to do.

I had this with a different BP Shortcodes plugin, but it is no longer active so I have removed it from my site.

Thank you.
