Hi, I’ve put the sidebar shortcode in the members-loop.php template but it doesn’t display properly. I want this page to look the same as the other Buddypress pages, is there a particular place I should put the shortcode?
Hi, on the Members Directory page there isn’t any Message button under each person’s picture. I’ve removed the ‘View profile’ button, but that’s where I would like the Message button in its place.
Regarding the profile pictures on the Members Directory page, I would like to make them around 160 * 170px.. so height a bit more than width. Many thanks.
Hi, I wanted to make an separate advanced search page with all the different search options. I added a page called Search in ‘Pages’, with the following shortcode [kleo_search_members_horizontal] . When I click on the Permalink though, it just takes me to the homepage?
Hi Laura, thanks, I meant on the members directory page. Ok, I will try to find a plugin for this, do you have any suggestions?
Hi Laura, I’ve added the page both ways. It appears in the menu, but goes to the homepage when clicked.
Hi, thanks for the link. I have messages already activated, I’m not sure if I made myself clear… the changes I need are regarding the Members page (Community > Members). On your demo, there isn’t any message button under each picture either, but is it possible to add this? Also, can I change the dimensions of the profile pictures (I’ve already enabled square images)? Many thanks.
Thanks Laura, but this made changes to the individual profile page, not the page I needed. I wanted to make changes to the list of profiles that you see on the Members page (Community -> Members, on your demo website). I have 4 profiles in a row, but I wanted to make the pictures bigger, adjust what what written underneath them (age, location etc.), and also add the ‘message’ button underneath that.
Hi, I may not have explained properly. I have a few questions regarding the layout of each profile on the Members page (Community -> Members):
1) I have enabled square images on Sweetdate instead of the default round images, but how can I enlarge them so that they can be rectangular and a certain size?
2) How can I adjust what is displayed underneath each image (name, age, sex, summary etc.), as I only need name, age & location?
3) Underneath each profile picture, instead of the ‘View Profile’ button (which I have removed), I would like a Message icon and maybe a couple of other icons from a couple of plugins that I have. How can I insert icons into there?Many thanks.
Ok, I saw that there is an option in Sweetdate to make the photos square rather than circular so I’ve enabled that. Is it possible to change the dimensions of the photo, so it’s more rectangular than square?
Also, how I can edit what information is displayed underneath each photo (where it displays the name, sex, age etc.? Is it possible to add icons there e.g. a ‘Message’ icon, so that someone can click on it to message the user?
Hi, I added the code you recommended in this thread specifically lines 10 to 23. I also added a ‘margin: 0;’ to bring the photo down inside the box. Now all I need to do is to make the picture rectangular instead of round (to fill up more of the box), and remove the round border around the picture. Is there a way to do this please?
I haven’t got a screenshot yet Laura, but in each of the profiles on the members page, I’d like to remove the small round photo and instead have a normal size rectangular photo of the person, with their name, age etc. below the photo on 1 or 2 lines, and a send message icon below that.
ok that’s great news, but in the meantime do you know of a way in which the search criteria can be pre populated with a member’s preferences, and then a search automatically made when the ‘Members’ page loads?
Isn’t there a simpler way of doing this, instead of re-writing search code? The horizontal search bar works, so when a user goes to the Members page, couldn’t those search fields be pre-populated with the values the user gives when they sign up (age range, I am a…, Looking for a… etc.), and then an immediate search done from that using the built in Search feature? After that, if the user wants to adjust any of the search criteria, they can do so in the search bar. I don’t want to allow a user to change their gender or the gender they are looking for once they have signed up, so I’m sure the ‘I am a…’ & ‘Looking for a…’ fields could be hidden in the search bar, even though they are used in the search.
Hi Laura, so I want users to only see that top section with the photo & details if they are viewing someone else’s profile, or if they click on My Profile (in case they want to edit their own). So, if they are just viewing their own messages, notifications etc, they wouldn’t see the top section with their own photo & details.
Ok thanks that worked, and how can I stop it displaying ‘This field can be seen by: Everyone’ underneath each of the fields?
Thanks for the link Vinz. I think that solution may involve editing the core files, and I want to try to avoid that if it’s possible, otherwise it may be the only option. Do you know if there is another way to do that?
