Hello there. Same here. did you find a solution? thanx in advance!
Sadly i didn´t find a solution yet 🙁
I had an issue with the new Microsoft brower, Edge. Then when I changed browser, it worked ok. This is as if Edge prevented me from clicking on upload. Just in case you have the same issue.
I´m using Chrome and Firefox so thats not the problem, but thanks for your time 🙂
Any solution to this problem? I have the same problem on my site buddypress, but only with profile pictures.
I would love to give you a solution, but i still got the Problem. :/
Hi,
thanks everyone for reporting this issue. Could you give us details about your configs ?
WordPress version?
Theme activated?
Plugins dealing with media activated?
Wordpress Version: 4.3.1
Theme: Enfold
Plugins with media:
Better bbPress Signature
EWWW Image Optimizer
W3 Total Cache
There are more plugins but they are only for bbpress.
I also installed the Buddypress Beta, but the bug is still there.
And thank you already for your time 🙂
i have the problem after migrating my wordpress installation from one server to another
Meaning this wasn’t happening before this migration?
In the meantime, you can temporarly fallback to the “old” Avatar UI by adding this filter:
// This will disable the Avatar UI and let you use the old UI
add_filter( 'bp_avatar_is_front_edit', '__return_false' );
// These will disable the cover image.
add_filter( 'bp_is_profile_cover_image_active', '__return_false' );
add_filter( 'bp_is_groups_cover_image_active', '__return_false' );
It worked before i reinstalled my complete Server.
Do i Need to add this to the wp-config?
Oh sorry, you can use the bp-custom.php file to put these filters: https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-custom-php/
The temporary fix is working good 🙂 Thank You
Hope it´s possible to get the new uploader to work.
Hi! The temporal solution is working. Thank!
@christopherwayne found the problem was relative to the theme he is using. @leg3ndary can you switch theme to see if that’s also the case for you.
If the theme is problematic for the new avatar UI, can you tell me if the content of the page is loaded using Ajax ?
I changed the theme to Twenty Fifteen, but the bug is still there:
In my case, the problem is solved if I change the theme. I’m not sure if I use ajax.Thank!
Hello,
Same issue here, even after switching to twenty sixteen theme.
My actual theme is customizr.
Hi all,
Thanks a lot for your feedback, but just saying “it’s not working for me” is not helping that much 🙂
Let’s share as much infos as possible..
WordPress version?
Theme activated?
Plugins dealing with media activated?
Browser used?
Host ?
I’m saying this because i was able to set my cover image on @christopherwayne website and set my avatar using the wp-admin/profile Extended profile area of his website.
Perhaps try to clean your browser’s cache…
Thank you very much for your help. Very good Support 🙂
I disabled inline JS minify now and checked the box with Disable minify for logged in users.
Now it works as it should.
Hello,
WordPress version? Last one
Theme activated? Customizr
Plugins dealing with media activated?
Browser used? Firefox, Chrome
Host ? o2switch
I’ve disable cache plugin, lazy load video plugin and clear the browser cache.
When changing image profile or image cover, the right sidebar goes down and {{data.filename}} text appears next to the profile content div area.
How can I send you admin access so you can have a close look at it if you have time of course ?
Oups, I thought I did deactivate all media plugins before asking for support but I must have forget one: EWWW Image Optimizer
When “EWWW Image Optimizer” is deactivate everything work great.
Thanks for your help ! Buddypress is awesome, thanks a lot for everything you do @imath.
yw @airsid, thanks for sharing about the trouble with Ewww Image Optimizer. I’ll try to understand why it happens.
Hi @imath ,
I saw you take a lot of interest with this problem and I’m having same issue, or at last similar issue.
I can’t see my avatar profile pictures and the link to change that.
I’m using Kleo theme, but if I put twentyfifteen the issue is still there.
I disable all the plugins except buddypress and the issue is still there.
Have the latest version of buddypress and wordpress.
Help please… :~(
@creamundo
Let’s be sure it’s a problem!
Could you go in WordPress Administration / Settings / Discussion and check you are allowing avatar display in your WordPress.
I’m saying this because you should at least view a mystery man as your avatar 😉
