    Hi,
    Try Bp profile cover image plugin. They have used our code and modified it to set covers.

    Also, this is coming as part of BuddyPress 2.4

    Hope that helps

    Hi Joshua,
    I personally have used only 4 bbPress plugins till date.

    1. Search BBPress 2.0 by Stephen Carrol:- Must if you need fully functional bbpress frum search

    2. GetShopped Support forums:- Slightly modified version of it. Using to give users point and rank for the bbpress posts. Also It allows us various topic status like resolved etc.

    3. bbPress Notify Admin:- Our very own plugin to get notifications whenever there is a new reply/new topic on the forum. It is very helpful if you are running support forums.

    4. bbPress backtick:- Again our own implementation to allow using backticks for posting code in bbPress forums. There is an alternative available as bbp backtick.

    That’s all I use. The first one is a must have for enhancing experience and the second helps you to have more engagement for the user.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Joshua,
    since you had custom activity loop, It might have worked differently. I am glad you figured it out. Closing this topic as resolved now.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Joshua,
    Apologies for delayed reply.

    Please give the following code a spin.

    
<?php 
$css_class = '';
$unread_notifications = bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( get_current_user_id() );

if( $unread_notifications ){
	$css_class = 'has-new-notifications';
}

?>
<a href="<?php bp_notifications_permalink();?>" class="someclass <?php echo $css_class;?>"> Notification</a>

    You will need to modify it for the icons or update for your theme but it shows how to add extra class when there are new notifications and link to the notifications page.

    If you want to link to unread notifications, you may update the bp_notifications_permalink() with bp_notifications_unread_permalink()

    Hope that helps.

    Hi,
    Apologies for my delayed reply.

    I believed you have group directory enabled. you can visit Groups directory and then click on individual group and there you can manage things. You can do it from your profile too but that only lists the groups you are member of.

    Hope it is more clear now.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Brayden,
    Apologies for the delayed reply.
    Please use this code instead

    
$activity_id = bp_get_activity_id();
    
if( ! bp_is_anonymous_activity(  $activity_id ) ) :?>

	<a href="<?php bp_activity_user_link();?>" <span class="text-primary"><i class="fa fa-paper-plane"></i> View </span><?php echo $xprofile_user;?> Profile</a>
<?php endif;?>

    Here we are only showing the link if the user is not anonymous, otherwise nothing will be shown.

    Hi,
    I mean from front end. As a site admin, you should be able to manage any group.

    Hi,
    Please visit the specific group and From Manage->Blog enable the categories you want the users to have.

    If that does not serve your purpose, I can provide php code to limit it.
