Hi again Brajesh

The problem: when using BuddyBlog Groups with the Events Manager plugin, both group AND personal events are displayed in the group event tab. Presumably because the EM plugin is overriding BuddyBlog Groups filters.

The issue can be fixed by including

remove_action(‘parse_query’, array(‘EM_Event_Post’,’parse_query’));

in my functions.php however, I am concerned that this might have unexpected results elsewhere in the site so thought it might be safer to edit my posts.php template instead.

I have tried replacing…

`query_posts(
bblgroups_get_posts_query_args(
array(
‘post_type’ => bblpro_get_current_post_type(),
)
)
); `

with

`query_posts(
bblgroups_get_posts_query_args(
array(
‘post_type’ => bblpro_get_current_post_type(),
‘meta_query’ => array(‘relation’ => ‘AND’,
array(
‘key’ => ‘_bblgroups_group_id’,
‘compare’ => ‘=’,
‘value’ => bp_get_current_group_id(),
),
)
)
)
); `

… but the meta_query doesn’t seem to be being taken into account. Not sure if it’s my code or just the wrong approach but if you do happen to have time to make any suggestions, they would be very much appreciated.

With many thanks in advance.

Hi Brajesh

Thank you and yes that makes sense.

I already know the Events Manager plugin was influencing the results as initially it was set to only show “past events” and since I didn’t have any, nothing was showing up at all… having fixed that part (which was simply the matter of a setting in the dashboard), I’ll investigate a bit further and hopefully can find a way to override the EM filter more fully in the template.

Hi Brajesh

Thank you so much… that must have been about the only combination I didn’t try(!) but I’m pleased to say that part is working now.

It has however highlighted another issue…

Despite the fact that I have enabled “Should tab post lists show only the posts created by BuddyBlog(front end)?”, the events tab on individual profiles is showing ALL events by that user (including events created through the dashboard) and the events tab on group profiles is also showing ALL events by that user (including events created through the dashboard AND non-group events).

I’m using the Events Manager plugin and I’m guessing this is because it is somehow overriding the posts queries. I note that in posts.php, you have a line as follows –

remove_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘bp_replace_the_content’ );

Would I be right in thinking that I somehow need to track down whatever filter the Events Manager plugin is applying and remove that too?

With many thanks in advance for your thoughts.
