Hi Piotr,
the mpp_have_galleries() and mpp_have_media() work with global queries.

What you are trying to do is create a custom loop where mpp media query may not be initilized.

What I recommend is using custom mpp media query like this

https://buddydev.com/mediapress/topics/api-reference/core/mpp_media_query/

And here is the list of Media Template tags( or you can copy it from any of those loops included)
https://buddydev.com/mediapress/guides/api-reference/template-tags/media-template-tags/

Are you trying to override some MediaPress specific page or just create a new page to list media. There are shortcodes available too like the below
https://buddydev.com/mediapress/topics/getting-started/shortcodes/mpp-list-media/

That you can use.

Hope that helps. Please do let me know if you need further help.

Thank you
Brajesh

PS: Please make sure to keep the overrides in your theme.

Hi Piotr,

That is correct because you are not passing the component/component id.
Try this code

<?php
$mppq = new MPP_Media_Query( array(
	//'gallery_id' => mpp_get_current_gallery_id(),
	'component' => 'members',
	'component_id' => bp_displayed_user_id()
) );
?>
<?php if(  $mppq->have_media() ): ?>
<?php while( $mppq->have_media() ): $mppq->the_media(); ?>

	<div class="mpp-u <?php mpp_media_class( mpp_get_media_grid_column_class() );?>">

		<?php do_action( 'mpp_before_media_item' ); ?>

		<div class='mpp-item-entry mpp-media-entry mpp-photo-entry'>
			<a href="<?php mpp_media_src('full') ;?>" class="mpp-item-thumbnail mpp-media-thumbnail mpp-photo-thumbnail">
				<img src="<?php mpp_media_src('thumbnail') ;?>" />
			</a>
		</div>

		<div class="mpp-item-actions mpp-media-actions mpp-photo-actions">
			<?php mpp_media_action_links();?>
		</div>

		<?php do_action( 'mpp_after_media_item' ); ?>
	</div>

<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php
	mpp_reset_media_data();
	mpp_reset_gallery_data();
?>

<?php endif;?>

Here we are saying that list all the media from displayed user. Please let me know if this works for you or not?

Thank you for confirming.

Can you please put a screenshot to show me what filters you are trying to change? I will be able to help in a better way then.

Thank you

Hi Piotr,
Thank you. I see it better now. It is the directory page that you are trying to modify.

1. If possible, I will advise to revert the old changes as that will affect the User profile Galleries listing too. We should not do that.

2. Now, since it is directory page, we have two options

a) Override the gallery directory template.

b) or Create a custom page template and use that

Let us see how it works for (a)

Step 1: Copy mediapress/templates/mediapress/default/buddypress/directory/index.php to yourtheme(orchildtheme)/mediapress/default/buddypress/directory/index.php

Step 2:- Let us create a file called photo-loop.php in the same directory and paste the code from my previous reply

Step 3: Change this line

			<?php
				mpp_get_template( 'gallery/loop-gallery.php' );
			?>

to

			<?php
				mpp_get_template( 'buddypress/directory/loop-photo.php' );
			?>

That’s all. You can remove the unwanted links/drodowns as you deem fit.

If you want to have both the media and gallery directory, in that case you should not use the above approach. You can use page template to do that. Let us see an example here

Step 1:- Create a page template by copying your page.php and name that template “Media Directory”

A page template is created by adding a meta like this to the file

<?php
/**
 * Template Name: Media Directory
 */
?>

Now, we can open our custom page template file and where you see the code to display entry, replace that by the custom loop from my previous reply

Step2: Visit Dashboard ->Add New Page and select that template and that’s it.

Strategy 3:- Using shortcode to list Media
Create/Edit a page and use the following shortcode
[mpp-list-media type=’photo’ component=’members’ status=’public’]

That will list all public photos from users

Now, coming to the 2nd part of your question, is there some code to generate filter? I am sorry, but it is not present yet. I will add it in version 1.1 (Media directory is coming as part of 1.1)
