    that sounds very exciting, Brajesh – i hope you’ll let me know when it’s published? will it be just an plugin update? if this is the case, i will just settle with manually applying Member Types to new users until the sync is available.

    thanks

    what i mean is, apply both a Role and Member Type to a new user when they register… or sync them after they register without doing it manually, of course.

    yes, very clear. I’m sorry.

    yes, i’m using Blog Categories. I followed instructions and was successful in displaying the form.

    when i create a post, it appears in Group Activity Stream. the post DOES NOT appear under the Blog Menu in the single group page, and that is all i am trying to correct at this point. If you can help me figure this out, I’ll be VERY grateful.

    thanks so much.

    i was successful in getting the form to appear, just wondered if the post was supposed to appear in groups, too. it says “This group has no Blog posts,” so i assume that blog posts are supposed to show right there when they’re posted.

    what am i missing?

    right now they ARE appearing in the groups activities, but that’s not exactly what i had in mind. is that by design? what about “This group has no Blog posts.” ?

    “If you don’t have access to the template files”

    this is my confusion – i’m guessing by template files you’re referring to those that are in folder /bcg…? i was successful by placing that function just after “do_action( ‘bp_before_group_blog_list’ )” in posts.php. the form appears in Groups now, under Blog/Create New Post – but when i got back to the Group the new post is in my activity and under Blog it STILL says “This group has no Blog posts” – aren’t the posts supposed to appear here…? i was hoping for that..

    thanks for your help! the people over at buddypress forums (shanedp) are blind or rude.

    //now let us find the form and render it
    $form = bp_get_simple_blog_post_form(‘my form’);
    if ( $form ) {//if this is a valid form
    $form->show();//it will show the form
    }

    “You can use above code anywhere in your template to render the form.”

    which Template? approximately what line? i just wish to have this somewhere in my groups – once i see how it’s done, i’m good, and can modify it…

    thanks

    yes, thank you!

    I simply need to know where to place that second function – in your instructions, you say “in your template” but i don’t know what that means – buddypress template files, the plugin template files…? a custom template?

    and where within the template file do i place it so that it’s available in Groups…?
