Hi,

Thanks for the great work on this amazing module

I'm hoping that this is subtly different from "asking how to add XYZ to your profiles" ...
I've also cross posted it in Buddylist2, but it may relate to both modules or either.

And I am loving Advanced Profile and Buddylist2. Both have key features needed for social networking and mostly play well together.

However ... I just found a dealbreaker. When Advanced Profile's User Profile takes over the standard profile page, the buddylist Actions (add a buddy / remove a buddy) ... dissapear as well.

So, right now, users cannot make or change buddies. I have not yet (but spent quite a few hours...) found a good way to get this info across into a panel or minipanel or block or view that could be incorporated into the userprofile panel page.

Any ideas? From anyone? Anyone else having this problem?

I'm also wondering if a simple PHP snippet could print the links to these functions into a view or node that could be subsequently incorporated in a block or minipanel.

Just one naive idea? I would love to hear better ones too!!

Thanks

The current Advanced Profile release doesn't support BuddyList2. You have to modify advanced_profile.module, changing

  • module_exists('buddylist') to module_exists('buddy_api')
  • buddylist_get_buddies to buddy_api_get_buddies

A few weeks ago, I posted a patch that does this.

Thanks agapetry!

Good to know.

I tried the recommendation, but I get the error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function advanced_profile_addvars() in /var/www/vhosts/matrixleadership.com/httpdocs/community/sites/all/themes/zen-niftycube/template.php on line 112

for any site url that I enter.

Backed up first, so probably not a problem, but any ideas?

Also ... in advanced_profile.module, there are many references to "buddylist". Do they all need to be changed to "buddy_api" ?

example:

// Add / remove from buddylist
  if (module_exists('buddy_api')) {
    if (user_access('maintain buddy list') && @in_array($account_id, array_keys(buddy_api_get_buddies($user->uid)))) {
      // Remove buddy
      $variables['buddylist_class'] = "buddy-remove";
      $variables['buddylist_icon'] = theme_image($icon_directory . "/group_delete.png", 'Remove Buddy', 'Remove Buddy', NULL, TRUE);
      $variables['buddylist_text'] = t('Remove buddy');
      $variables['buddylist_link'] = 'buddy/delete/'. $account_id;
    } else {
      // Add buddy
      if ($account_id != $user->uid && user_access('maintain buddy list')) {
        $variables['buddylist_class'] = "buddy-add";
        $variables['buddylist_icon'] = theme_image($icon_directory . "/group_add.png", 'Add to buddy list', 'Add to buddy list', NULL, TRUE);
        $variables['buddylist_text'] = t('Add buddy');
        $variables['buddylist_link'] = 'buddy/add/'. $account_id;
      }
    }

Thanks again agapetry.

I missed your patch in comment #1.

Just tried it and it worked beautifully so far.

I don't know if you are watching advanced_forum module (also by Michell, i think ...)

This would be off topic here, so I will cross post in advanced forum issues.

The same issue seems to be happening in that module. maybe it needs a buddylist2 patch.
have you done one by any chance?
I looked in the advanced_forum.module and it seems to have some of the same calling code to buddylist rather than buddylist_api.

tried to modify your patch and apply it but no success. (Im not experienced with php or patching yet)

Ideas? (maybe reply if youre interested in the advanced forum issues?)

thanks
