I would like to move the order of my profile (and group) tabs, is there an easy way to do this?

Hello,

Hi,
Those are generated by Buddypress and you can change them by adding this code to wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php. If the fie doesn’t exit create it:
COPY CODE
```
function kleo_change_profile_tab() {
global $bp;
 
$bp->bp_nav['profile']['position'] = 10;
$bp->bp_nav['activity']['position'] = 20;
$bp->bp_nav['friends']['position'] = 30;
$bp->bp_nav['groups']['position'] = 40;
$bp->bp_nav['blogs']['position'] = 50;
$bp->bp_nav['messages']['position'] = 60;
$bp->bp_nav['settings']['position'] = 70;
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'kleo_change_profile_tab', 999 );
 
define( 'BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'profile' );
```
Change the order in the above arrays if you like.

Let me know if this helps.

Thank you,
Catalin

Hello,

Take a look at this link:

http://bp-tricks.com/snippets/code/arrange-group-profile-navigation-menu/

here it is explained better. Add the code in functions.php from your child theme.

Let me know if this works.

Thank you,
Catalin

@Catalin Hi Catalin I am trying to achieve the same as maxrevz but it is also not working for me. I also used the code you linked to http://bp-tricks.com/snippets/code/arrange-group-profile-navigation-menu/
but it has no effect.

I inserted in the functions.php in my childtheme. Do I have to make a plugin folder for the functions.php in the child theme ?

@Catalin I fixed it, i turned out that when I edit the functions.php via my ftp editor it is changing

‘ in to ` that was all the problem.

But it is strange that I can’t reorder the MEDIA from rtmedia, everything else works great.

I used this ( in case someone needs it ) put it in your child functions.php

function mb_profile_menu_tabs(){
global $bp;
$bp->bp_nav[‘notifications’][‘position’] = 110;
$bp->bp_nav[‘articles’][‘position’] = 22;
$bp->bp_nav[‘media’][‘position’] = 14;
}
add_action(‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘mb_profile_menu_tabs’, 201);

FYI – This wasn’t working for me either. But I simply cut and pasted this code in my text editor. I had to retype everything from scratch. Then it worked perfectly. So if it does not work for anyone, just retype it all in the order you want – do not copy and paste. Hope this helps someone.

The copy and paste doesn’t work because of the pretty formatting of the single quotes as @Norman found.
