I have asked several questions on the buddypress forum but I never get any sort of response or help. I seem to always get a valid well thought out answer on the stackoverflow community, so I am posting my question here too. Here is my original post to the buddypress forum that no one has answered. Seems like a good question that some dev could answer easily. maybe someone here has some experience or guidance and can point me in the right direction.
Hey, i was wondering I found this webpage http://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-activity-stream-loop/ on editing the activity stream loop with some information on filtering the main activity wall but I am really still confused because It doesnât seem like all the available options are listed here. For example right under it it says if ( bp_has_activities( âtype=statusâ) ) :
Well âtype=statusâ is no where listed on this page and I know there are several other options available that are also not listed. So my question is what and where can I find all the available options for filtering. I am setting up some custom options for my site and I would love some help. I am familiar with php so if there is a file i can look at then I would love to know about it too.
Please Advise Thanks,
All the filters and accepted parameters are on the page you referenced (just scroll down it a little bit). For some reason in the example they use
type=statuswhen it should beobject=statusas that is the correct way to filter for status updates only.You can always take a look at the actual function itself to see accepted parameters. Buddypress is much better documented in the code than on their website.
