Hi Dave,
I am sorry but this forum is not the beginners forum, we don’t teach php.
Newbies are welcome but if you do not know where to put the code, in that case, It is better to let others do it for you.

I will try to point again, if you are building a user slider, you need to know some js, a little bit of php skill.

Please take a look at this file and see how the members are listed in the directory

https://github.com/buddypress/BuddyPress/blob/master/src/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/members-loop.php#L51

This will give you a pointer. If you are not comfortable with php, And if you plan to do it yourself, I will suggest checking out some beginners php tutorial for a few hours. That will give you the right perspective.

Hope that helps.
Regards
Brajesh

Hi Kalpesh,
Thank you for posting.

Here is a simple solution that I used for one of the dating based site I worked in past.

1. define two member types ‘male’, ‘female’
2. Assign proper member types to the user on registration. You may use my xprofile member type field plugin

3. Now filter bp_after_has_members_parse_args
a) If user is not logged in, no need to do anything, just return the args
b) If we are here, the user is logged in, Get his/her member type
c) Find out the opposite member type
d) In the $args set ‘member_type’ = $opposite_membe_type

e). In newer version of BuddyPress, you may avoid step c, d and set ‘member_type__not_in’ to current member’s member type

That will work with BP Profile search and filter the lists based on the member type.

Hope that helps.

Hi Xochi,
Thank you.

Yes, It will support all oembed providers by default. I am aware that souncloud supports oembed but I am not sure about Academia.com.

You may see the list of supported providers by WordPress here

https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds

We will allow custom URL too but the first priority is oembed.

Thank you

Hi Dave,
Welcome to BuddyDev.

you can use the following php code to get the url

$url = bp_core_get_user_domain( $user_id );//replace with user's id

Hope that helps. feel free to ask any question. There is nothing wrong with your question and it is not stupid. We all learn by doing things 🙂

Hi Marc,
I am sorry that I was not able to put the update earlier. I was busy with our theme release . Please give me 2-3 more day and I look forward to put this in the plugin.

Thank you
Brajesh
