I used the BP codex, but did not apply:
function your_theme_xprofile_cover_image( $settings = array() ) { $settings['default_cover'] = 'https://www.gymr.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/41a4fa77-d87c-4e32-bcdc-14badfad6a33.jpg'; return $settings; } add_filter( 'bp_before_groups_cover_image_settings_parse_args', 'your_theme_xprofile_cover_image', 10, 1 );Then used this, also failed:
// Default group cover image function custom_default_group_cover_image( $settings = array() ) { $settings['default_cover'] = 'https://www.gymr.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/41a4fa77-d87c-4e32-bcdc-14badfad6a33.jpg'; // path to your image return $settings; } add_filter( 'bp_before_groups_cover_image_settings_parse_args', 'custom_default_group_cover_image', 10, 1 );Please suggest if something should be otherwise.
Hi @abourne,
These snippets are correct. It’s just the priority of the filters that must be adjusted (10 -> 20, already done in your snippets).
Regards,
Ta da, easy fix. Thanks.
Why is this not working? I set priority from 10, to 20 and then 30 – none worked…
function bb_cover_image( $settings = array() ) { $settings['width'] = 949; $settings['height'] = 712; return $settings; } add_filter( 'bp_before_groups_cover_image_settings_parse_args', 'bb_cover_image', 10, 1 );My default image are these exact dimensions.
When deactivating code or activating it – no changes are made to image size on groups – hence not working properly.
Thanks again.
Correct, to not be cut off by the page elements and to be displaying in full height.
Hi @abourne,
Here is a CSS snippet that will display your cover image in full:
@media (min-width: 1200px) { #buddypress div#item-header #header-cover-image { height: 840px !important; background-position: center center; } #buddypress div#item-header #profile-header { height: 600px !important; } }Regards
Applied this. It makes the dimensions of every cover photo placement container from any group push way lower down screen – hence cutting off cover pic and group info which makes the user need to scroll a little.
The intent is not to change the layout of cover image size on all groups, rather just make this particular image as a default fit into the
exact dimensions of the existing cover image placement container.Should it be best to just resize this image? I tried forever in paint – random dimensions to get it to fit. Failed.
[‘width’] = 949;
[‘height’] = 712;
Is the original size of imageWhat should this image be resized too in order to fit within the existing position/placement/container of cover images.
Or should the above CSS be altered?
Regards
Hi @abourne,
To get your default image to fit, you would indeed need to resize it. Your image needs to have the same (or similar) ratio as the cover container. For instance, the default cover size on our demo is 1800 x 500, so you should try to resize your image to fit these dimensions or have the same or similar ratio.
I hope this information will help.

Okie dokie. Thanks for the support 🙂
