I tried both ‘rand’ and ‘random’. They both work for post types, but not taxonomies.

I got the pro version. It’s a pretty good plugin. I am trying to create some interesting dynamic tooltips similar to facebook user thumbnails.

With the theming, please edit it so that not all fields are required. Sometimes, I may just want to change one item and use the defaults for the rest.

Thanks again for a great plugin!

Thank you, Tomas. As soon as you make the mod, I will pay double for it. ??

Here is mod suggestion you can include in your next update:
[tooltips content = "Total Comments"]<i class="icon_comment"></i>[/tooltips]
This way, you can make just about anything a trigger.

It is still a great plugin.

Thanks for your response. Kindly provide me with the names of the respective fields for the rating percentage values and the total number of votes values.

Cheers!

This worked like a charm, Peter. Thank you!

Thanks for your response, Peter.
I tried the code below and got the same results…the first and last name of the logged in user.

[loop type=post]
[field title]
[field excerpt]
[pass field=author][user field=first_name] [user field=last_name][/pass]
[/loop]

I may be using the wrong syntax.

I get an error saying the field cannot be found. Ideally, I’ll like to insert firstname and lastname OR the fullname. I’ll be forcing all my users to enter both first and last names.

You are awesome!
This works like a charm:
<a href="[bpps_profile_url displayed='Author']">[bpps_profile_displayname displayed='Author']</a>

But this, not so well:
<a href="[bpps_profile_url displayed='Author']">[bpps_profile_field field='Name' tab='Base' displayed='Author']</a>

Thanks for all your hardwork!

One thing that might stop it working is that I’ve included a test to make sure it’s executed on a single post post page, would your page me something different?

That may very well be the issue. I am using it on a page that creates a list of post from a particular custom content type. The page lists all projects in a loop.

Thanks for your effort, but it still doesn’t do what I need it to do.

This is how I am using it in a custom post type created with pods:

[loop type=projects]
[field title]
[field excerpt]
[global][views][/global]
[global]
<a href="[bpps_profile_url displayed='Author']">[bpps_profile_displayname displayed='Author']</a>
[/global]
[/loop]

It still displays the name and url of the logged in user and not that of the respective authors.

I forgot to wrap the code up!
<a href="[field author-url]">[field author]</a>

Right now, I’m using:
[field author]
from the custom content shortcode plugin which links to:
https://wwww.mydomain.com/author/username/
Then I am using another plugin to redirect from:
https://wwww.mydomain.com/author/
to:
https://wwww.mydomain.com/members/.

Quite inefficient, but it will have to do for now. ??

The custom content shortcode plugin allows me to pass shortcodes from other plugins.
When you write it, remember to send it the member profile and not the author profile.

Thanks for all your hardwork!
Cheers.

I have a plugin that generates a shortcode for the post author and author URL. What I need is a link to the member profile on BP from the post.

A dirty solution will be to combine the author URL with a URL redirect plugin…which I am trying to avoid. ??

Thanks for you help, but it doesn’t work. It still shows the name and URL of the signed in user.

I have a list of custom posts created by members. Instead of linking to the default author page, I want to link to the respective member profile.

Can I achieve this using your shortcodes?
