BP Groups Suggestions

Descriere

Adds „Suggested groups” functionality into BuddyPress groups.
By default, the plugin uses the user’s friends’s groups in order to suggest groups of the login user, but this can be extended through available filters.
It adds a „Suggested group” tab into the Groups Directory page, and also a widget „Suggested groups” is available.
The login user can hide groups from suggestion list, by pressing the „Remove group”, either through the widget,
the „Suggested groups” tab or by the group’s homepage. Also the login user can reset the hidden suggestion list.
The plugin uses various ‘filters’ so a developer can extend it, for example to include admins specified groups as suggested,
or to exclude groups from suggestion list.
Tested up to: BuddyPress 11.0.0

Special thanks goes to Brajesh Singh, whoes ‘BP Groups Suggest Widget’ (https://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-group-suggest/) gave the idea for extending it to a full plugin.

PLEASE: If you have any issues or it doesn’t work for you, please report in support forum. It doesn’t help anyone to mark „broken” without asking around. Thanks!

Întrebări frecvente

Which are the available filters

  1. add_excluded_groups_suggestions: Allows developer to exclude groups from displaying as suggested.
    For example, see function my_groups_to_exclude on bp-suggest-functions.php
  2. get_possible_groups_suggestions_by_plugin: Allows developer to add groups into suggestion list
    For example, see function my_groups_suggestions on bp-suggest-functions.php
  3. add_users_for_group_search: Add users which groups should be used for group search. From example, see function friends_for_group_suggestion_ls on bp-suggest-functions.php
  4. bp_get_group_remove_suggestion_button: Allow developer to change the look and action of remove suggestion button
  5. ls_group_suggestions_description: Change the message on group_loop head. From example, see function friends_grsug_ls_description which is used inside friends_for_group_suggestion_ls on bp-suggest-functions.php

I think there should be more suggested groups

Only recenlty active groups are displayed.
Recently active means ‘last_activity’ date of group is < BP_GROUP_SUGGESTIONS_GROUPS_LAST_ACTIVITY_INTERVAL . ” ” . BP_GROUP_SUGGESTIONS_GROUPS_LAST_ACTIVITY_INTERVAL_TYPE. .
Default setting is groups active the last 4 weeks, which means BP_GROUP_SUGGESTIONS_GROUPS_LAST_ACTIVITY_INTERVAL = ‘4’ and
BP_GROUP_SUGGESTIONS_GROUPS_LAST_ACTIVITY_INTERVAL_TYPE=’WEEK’.
Both consts are defined at the beginning of loader.php file.

Can I extend/improve the plugin

Sure. Actually, I would be happy if someone gives a hand to make the best of the suggested groups idea. Various things (brainstorming) which need to be fixed are available on /ideas.txt
