Fetch group cover inside loop?

[parousia]

Hi!

I’m using the code below to display a list of groups that belongs to the user. I would really like to be able to fetch the cover image for each group. Is there a way I can do that from within this code?

outcome of the code can be seen here – http://www.cultexposure.com/members/lauriedugdale/

Thanks!

                            $user_id = bp_displayed_user_id();

                            if ( bp_has_groups( 'type=alphabetical&max=6&user_id=' . $user_id )) { ?>

Hi,

Do you have solved your issue , i see in your page a block of groups with cover image.

From you provided code this function it seems to be what you need

COPY CODE

bp_group_avatar_thumb()

Cheers

Hi, thanks but the avatar retrieving the avatar isn’t the problem, its the cover image of the group I would like. Is this possible?

[Radu]

I will get back to you tomorrow with an solution regarding to this.

Thanks! When needed I’ve been fetching the user profile cover from user meta, but I don’t think the group cover is stored anywhere like that?

[Radu]

Hi,

Try with this

COPY CODE

    $image_url = groups_get_groupmeta( bp_get_group_id(), 'bpcp_group_cover' );
