    Hi,

    I would like to remove the Profile tab (done already) but this also hides the ‘change picture’ link. How do I make the avatar a clickable link to the change profile page?

    Cheers

    An alternative would be to add a submenu to the ‘settings’ page. I’m looking into this (sorry, couldn’t edit my OP).

    OK, I copied some code from the web which created an activity link in the Activity tab. I’ve changed what I can so the submenu appears in the Settings tab instead, but I need to change the ‘screen function’ and the ‘link’ part to point to the Change Image page. Any pointers?

    function bpfr_custom_profile_sub_nav() {
    	global $bp;
    	$parent_slug = 'settings';
    		
    	//Add subnav item 	 
    	bp_core_new_subnav_item( array( 
    	'name'            => __( 'Change Photo' ), 
    	'slug'            => $parent_slug, 
    	'parent_url'      => $bp->loggedin_user->domain . $parent_slug.'/', 
    	'parent_slug'     => $parent_slug, 
    	'screen_function' => 'bp_activity_screen_my_activity',
    	'position'        => 60,
    	'link'            => bp_get_activity_directory_permalink(),
    	) );
    }
    add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpfr_custom_profile_sub_nav' );

    Please change your ‘link’ to this

    
    'link'            => bp_displayed_user_domain() .bp_get_profile_slug() .'/change-avatar/',
    

    That will do it.

    Regards

    Hi Brajesh,

    We’re almost there. The link you provided worked (for some reason I had to put it in my functions file, not bp-custom, to make it work), but only when the Profiles tab is displaying because it jumps from the Settings tab to the Profile tab to bring up the image upload window. However I want to hide the Profiles tab altogether with this code:

    function vap_remove_buddypress_profile_tabs() {
    	global $bp;
           // to remove main menu like friends.
            bp_core_remove_nav_item('profile' );
           // to remove sub nav favorites under activity.
           bp_core_remove_subnav_item('activity', 'favorites');
    }
    add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'vap_remove_buddypress_profile_tabs', 999 );

    When I remove the Profiles tab Buddypress doesn’t know where to go after clicking ‘change photos’ when in the Settings tab.
