Thank you for your enthusiasm!
But, as I stated in the thread linked above, this requires work on my end to write a script to backfill the follow count for everybody on the site.
And my time at the moment is a bit limited.
I might try work out how do this. I’ve also been trying to work out for a few months how to do something similar to this – popular posts – sort posts in order from most favorited to least favorited. I finally found out how to do this yesterday after discovering this script by imath here:
https://github.com/imath/bp-loop-filters/blob/master/bp-loop-filters.php (see bottom half)
This allows you to do this:
// Example of displaying Popular posts (order posts by most favorited to least favorited)
function my_filter_activity( $loop ) {
if ( is_page( 'custom-page' )) {
$loop['meta_query'] = array(
array(
'key' => 'favorite_count',
'value' => 1,
'type' => 'numeric',
'compare' => '>='
),
);
}
return $loop;
}
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_activity_parse_args', 'my_filter_activity' );
Is it possible to order members by most followed to least followed by creating something very similar to the above code? Or does there need to be more work?
