Hi Leo,

It is difficult to navigate the user to the page from where the post was published as it is a custom form and can be called on any places. But we can edit it from BuddyBlog edit form. Please modify the code for registering custom form

function buudydev_post_form() {

    $settings = array(

        'post_type' => 'post',
        'post_author' =>  bp_loggedin_user_id(),
        'post_status' => 'publish',
        'tax' => array(
            'category' => array(
                'include' => array( 61 ), //category ids
                'view_type' => 'checkbox',
            )
        ),

        'current_user_can_post' => is_user_logged_in(),
        'show_categories' => true,
        'allow_upload' => true
    );

    bp_new_simple_blog_post_form( 'my_custom_form', $settings );

}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'buudydev_post_form', 4 );

with this code

 function buudydev_post_form() {

    $settings = array(

        'post_type' => 'post',
        'post_author' =>  bp_loggedin_user_id(),
        'post_status' => 'publish',
        'tax' => array(
            'category' => array(
                'include' => array( 65 ), //category ids
                'view_type' => 'checkbox',
            )
        ),
        'custom_fields'				=> array(
             '_my_custom_form' => array( 'type' => 'hidden', 'id' => 'my_custom_form', 'name' => 'my_custom_form', 'default' => 'my_custom_form' )
        ),
        'current_user_can_post' => is_user_logged_in(),
        'show_categories' => true,
        'allow_upload' => 1
    );

    bp_new_simple_blog_post_form( 'my_custom_form', $settings );

}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'buudydev_post_form', 4 );

Also we need to override the buddyblog form template by copy “buddyblog/template/buddyblog/edit.php” file to your theme folder “buddyblog/edit.php” after copying, modify the following section

   $form = bp_get_simple_blog_post_form( 'buddyblog-user-posts' );
                            
    $form->show();

with

  $form_id ='buddyblog-user-posts';

    $post_id = bp_action_variable( 0 );
    
    if( ! empty( $post_id ) && ! empty( get_post_meta( $post_id, '_my_custom_form', true ) ) ) {
        $form_id ='my_custom_form';
    }

    $form = bp_get_simple_blog_post_form( $form_id );

it will load over custom form instead of BuddyBlog Form.

Hi Leo,

Welcome back. I will get back to you shortly on this.

Hi Leo,

Please check the following code in your bp-custom.php file and let me know if it is working or not.

function buddydev_add_new_activity_type( $allowed ) {
    
    $allowed[] = 'mpp_media_upload';
    return $allowed;
    
}
add_filter('bp_editable_activity_allowed_type', 'buddydev_add_new_activity_type' );

Thank You
Ravi
