Hello Boone,

Thank you for your input.

I’ve checked permission status of uploads: 755.

Cleared all caches, Cloudflare, and pauzed SSL but still no luck with the posting of updates or uploading of images in posts, activity stream or in Media Library (shows a blank page, no thumbnails, etc.).

But on top of this I’ve found other (probably related) problems:

1. Even our administrators couldn’t create new user accounts or update existing accounts. All we see is an avatar, no name, email, no edit,etc. See image below:

2. Database error:
WordPress database error: [Duplicate entry ‘0’ for key ‘PRIMARY’] 
INSERT INTO kuyrsd79sdn_bp_activity ( user_id, component, type, action, content, primary_link, date_recorded, item_id, secondary_item_id, hide_sitewide, is_spam ) VALUES ( 82, ‘activity’, ‘activity_update’,

MySQL said:
#1062 – Duplicate entry ‘0’ for key ‘PRIMARY’

3 SQL query:

—
— Indexes for table kuyrsd79sdn_options
—
ALTER TABLE kuyrsd79sdn_options
ADD PRIMARY KEY (option_id),
ADD UNIQUE KEY option_name (option_name),
ADD KEY wpe_autoload_options_index (autoload)

Any idea how to fix this?

I guess I’ve isolated and found the problem: BP Group Hierarchy plugin. I’ve deactivated plugin again and re-installed BP and everything is working fine now… (for the moment).

Hello Paul,

I’m using theme Kleo, BP Group Hierarchy, some other plugins and installed new Buddypress with all plugins switched off.

I’ve checked this: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/10745
and see you did a huge overhaul to the Group Navigators..

[Kookidooki]

On line 155 I’ve found this code:

$retval = buddypress()->{$component}->nav->add_nav( $nav_item );

[Kookidooki]

Still haven’t found the solution.

It appears there’s a problem when displaying avatars in members-masonry only.

Any idea?

[Kookidooki]

Great! We’re going to check it.

Thank you!

[Kookidooki]

Thank You so Much!

Will take a look at it and report results!

[Kookidooki]

I’ve checked that too but it’s initially uploading avatar to server in format 50x50px; then it’s inflating to, for example, 150x150px.

Can’t find the script that controls uploaded avatar size 50x50px.

[Kookidooki]

Found new problems:

All avatars are not sharp when at:

…/members-masonry/
…/members-carousel/
…/groups/groupsname_1/members/

All avatars are not sharp and all are having original size 50x50px inflated to 150x150px.

Can’t find the script that controls default size 50x50px, rendering unsharp avatars.

Pls need help. I want to have clear, sharp avatars size 150x150px in the above mentioned pages.

Thanks!

[Kookidooki]

This is the solution:

go to your child-theme > functions.php (create one if you don’t have this).
Add this code to your functions.php file:

define ( ‘BP_AVATAR_THUMB_WIDTH’, 150 );
define ( ‘BP_AVATAR_THUMB_HEIGHT’, 150 );
define ( ‘BP_AVATAR_FULL_WIDTH’, 150 );
define ( ‘BP_AVATAR_FULL_HEIGHT’, 150 );

And you’re all set!

[Kookidooki]

Hello I guess that I’ve found the culprit!

Go to your theme > buddypress > groups > groups-loop.php ; edit this file.

Search for:

“><?php bp_group_avatar( ‘type=full&width=80&height=80’ );

Change 80 into 150.

It works for a moment…. then it reverts back to the same situation. It’s still has the size 80x80px.

I’m missing something. What other files have to be changed?

[Kookidooki]

Hi Henry,

The avatars have size 80×80 px on server, but I want to have all of them 150x150px for groups avatar. Is there a way to change default size of uploaded images to 150x150px?

See screenshot: http://imgur.com/iKaTfKw

Thanks!

[Kookidooki]

YES!!!

That did the trick! It works.

Thank You so much!

Hi Slava,

Thank you!

I have a different theme and layout than yours. No sidebars.

Need a small simple script that shows only admin bar when you’re logged in.

I’m not a coder but I need something like this:

if user is logged in => show admin bar.

[Kookidooki]

Thank you!

It works fine, but when a (non-administrator) user is logged in, they cannot log out anymore because the logout button is missing which you can find in the “Howdy… [name][avatar][settings][logout button]” box at the upper right side. Also missing is the name of the user with his avatar, messages / notifications, etc. So this box is missing.

So what I need is a script that hides the admin bar on the front end when you’re logged out, but is visible when you’re logged in.

Any idea?

ThanX!

as far as using skype for your site, I think that is a short sighted choice – no privacy, no control, dependent upon third parties… I went down that road once, and not getting into that dependency again.

I’m running a business website where face-2-face conversation is important. Skype works fine for me and about the privacy: you decide (and no one else) who you want to join your private or group conversation. There’s no other party involved when using Skype.

If you want videochat with chatrooms, groupchats => Skype for Buddypress by uicoders.com

If you only want a simple plain texting chatroom => try tinychat. Have tried that too but it’s buggy.

[Kookidooki]

No only with persons you are chatting with. You’ve never used Skype before? With Skype you can videochat and text to…. if you would like to stay anonymous (just switch off camera).

[Kookidooki]

Never used Skype before? 🙂

You can videochat and also text.

I was looking for this plugin for years and finally got one and it works perfectly on my Buddypress site. A really must have for every social networking site!
easy to setup: download, install and you’re all set. Few clicks, 30 seconds bingo!

[Kookidooki]

Almost everybody on this world has a Skype account and I was looking for a long time for a plugin that seamlessly integrates with Buddypress.

Finally found Skype for Buddypress by uicoders.com. It works like a charm. Setup in 2 minutes and you’re ready to rock!

This is the one that you really need to reach more people and to increase engagement on your Buddypress site. You don’t need special server setups like RedHat, etc, etc. Just install and rock! This plugin saved my buddypress platform … kudoooooooooooooosssssssssssss for the guys at uicoders.com!

I got the same problem after upgrading WP and BP to the latest version: the “Create a Group”- button is missing.

I copied the link from WP Admin Bar > Groups > “Create A Group” and copy pasted it in a menu. Prefer the button!

How do we create a “Create a Group” button?

[Kookidooki]

Hello Shanebp,

This is what I mean:

In Buddypress dashboard > Users > Profile Fields > Add New Field Group… it’s not creating a new group.

Is there incompatibilty between WP 4.1 and Buddypress cause it’s duplicating my profile fields. For example: it’s now showing my name field twice.. and the order of the groups are changing every time…Weird
