BuddyPress BuddyBoss integration?

Hi,

I just started using BuddyBoss platform but want to stick with GP for my theme. I think you guys and GP are awesome. But, of course, it doesn't look as good as the BB Theme without significant tweaking.

I'm wondering if there is any specific BP/BB integration with GP? Or just find the needed tweaks as they come up? I see quite a bit of discussion in the forum here about BP/BB. Just wondering if there is any specific integration happening/available.

Thanks!

Hi Laura,

Depending on what you're trying to do, integrations may be done manually through specific codes.

I believe the discussions you've seen so far usually consist of doing things with PHP snippets and it's pretty much the same for parts that don't work fresh out-of-the-box. :)

Ok thanks.

You don't happen to have them all in one list to peruse do you?

A particular need I have is to display content from a custom field in the header area, specifically company_name.

BB support says:
"You can use the hook bp_before_member_header_meta to display the custom field content in the member header"
But I don't know how to implement that and that is all the help they will give.

Any chance you can show me how to implement "show the custom field company_name in the header" with that hook?

Thanks so much in advance.

Thanks, Leo! I'll check them out. Much appreciated.

No problem :)

This may not be a GP question, not sure. Is there a way to build a regular page and manually include the BuddyBoss menu on it, like a sub-menu?

Definitely not a GP question. Try checking with BuddyBoss' support team :)

Leo, thanks for the video links.

I'm missing how this works in the context of Buddy Boss? I'm sure I'm missing something obvious :-) Are you suggesting creating a custom template to work with Buddy Boss?

No - my video shows you how to implement custom field values in elements :)
