Re: Cannot change avatar
For anyone following this and hoping for an answer, I came across a similar discussion:
https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/surprising-avatar-behavior
Andy said, “The quickest option is to remove the /wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/avatars/ directory and let BuddyPress rebuild your avatars as people upload again.” Also, Andy recommended that you check your permissions.
I did both of the above. I removed the avatar folder which did remove the mixed-up avatars. However, BP still would not correctly display newly uploaded avatars. It said the file was uploaded correctly, I see the file in the avatar folder (both bpfull.jpg and jpthumb.jpg) but BP is still displaying those files as a broken link.
Still hoping and looking for a fix to this as more and more people are being affected by it.
