@dfa327 Hi David, I have tried to sing up to the oficial ”ajax chat” forum, on getpaidfrom.us, but I didn’t find where… looks like the singup form is missing. I need help to understand how to deal with your plugin, which is an amazing idea, by the way. My current problem is where define ”channels”, neither channels.php nor bp-chat-channels.php are making any difference. I should posting my issue on a forum, of course, but where?, can you give me access to the support group of the plugin?.
greetings,
Gabriel -

@silversurferes I have the same problem. Since the last updates the Buddypress Ajax Chat doesn’t work at all. Fatal errors. It’s been disabled. I liked having the chat, but since I’m in here now and on this topic, @Dfa327 I’ve been wondering how you got a GPL license for this plug-in when your ads come with it [...]

@dfa327 Hello Dave,
I tried to leave this on your site, but couldn’t figure out how to register.
Love your Buddypress Ajax Chat plugin and it was working great – then it quit with the last Buddypress upgrade and when I try to load the chat page I get this error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function getName() on a non-object in /usr/share/web/hoopeditor/webshare/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-ajax-chat/bp-chat/chat/lib/class/AJAXChat.php on line 124
Any insight on this would be most appreciated.
Thank you,
- Philo

@dfa327 Hey man, is there a fix for the avatar uploads for your port of the events plugin? It puts the event-avatar folder in wp-content, instead of either the child theme or plugin itself’s folder, one of which I assume is where it should go.
Other than that, it works great and I’m glad to have it. Thanks for your work.

@dfa327 I have a need for some bp-events features for a site I’m currently working on. I was thinking we may want to team up and do upgrades to your bp-events fork together. Been in software development for 15 years now and I believe I can help get more features in quickly with us working together.
Thoughts?

Math challenge is easy to bypass.
Custom question is as good as the first time you see it.
The proposed solution here works. You can’t hack it with the traditional tools. You just can’t. Hence why I think it is superior to anything else I’ve found. You can argue ( or opinion-ate) all you want, but my solution solves the problem and you can’t circumvent it with ease.

This nested post is nice. I like the look & feel.
Show me a better solution to solve this annoying reg spam bot issue and I’ll be happy to listen. But this is the best method I’ve used bar none. One could inject a noscript element tag if they were passionate about losing javascript disabled browsers, but I’m not that interested in designing for that case.
Anyway, thanks for the thread talk

That’s a weak argument. Sorry, but it is.
Web design should push as much as possible to the client side, aka javascript. You got a large suite of features with Jquery/ajax and javascript. Few people will run a browser without it now.
Next you’ll be saying frames are good? LOL.
Sorry if I sound harsh, but to ignore a huge problem with bp, by hiding behind the javascript shield is not a strong argument.

And you’re complaining why? Tell me a popular browser that doesn’t support javascript? I think your concern is rather silly.

Requires javascript though.

For those users that have it turned off! (yup a small minority, but still!)

It wasn’t an argument, just stating an opinion!

Whatever works for you is fine. I’ve never resorted to javascript.
Although nothing will stop manual spammers!

@dfa327 yeah i invite a bunch of people and they don’t get any emails, and the notifications at the top doesnt show up either. I’ve had a look at the code and it’s very similar to the groups invitations which work fine but i cant pin point the problem.
Cheers for your help you’re a star -

@dfa327 @dfa327 Hi Dave. First of all i’d like to say thanks for fixing the BP Events plugin it works great now. There is just 1 part of it that’s not working – the notifications. Is it working your end? My end no emails get sent out, and no notifications to the user.
I’ve checked the backend table, the invites are created but not send so the error must be to do with the actual emailing. If you can help or point me in the right direction to fix it i’d really appreciate it.
Cheers
Troy

Realty as ia posted an update:
@dfa327 On the events plug in i can’t get it to work it goes to the home page when I click schedule and event. Any ideas? I’m using buddypress 1.2.3 defult BP template and WP 2.9.2
HI ia, have you moved the relevant Bp-events folder into your default or child theme? That should sort it
I’m clueless on how to do that. Is it a server thing or can you do it from the site. What folder do i have to move? I’m using the BuddyPress Default 1.2.3 it doesn’t see to have a child theme just the default.
Ok i got it copy the events folder form bp-events to the directory i have the default BP theme which was buddy press directory. it’s seems to work now! it says to do that in the read me sorry form not following instructions.
Cool, no worries I did the same thing. I’ve learnt you do need to read the the readme’s for a lot of BP plugins
Instruction wow what concept! Na I’m a guy I would be forsaking my gender if I started following instructions or even acknowledging that there was such a thing! What would my wife think if I did that! I wonder what the % of forum Help requests there are by gender as a % of users?

Yum, yeah Twire works in bp 1.2. It needed to get updated. The latest Twire works well for me:)

I wish I knew why it was a 3 out of 5. Adsense is gone. All that’s there now is an image to anygig.com for seo purposes.
If someone wants something let me know.
