    I can only agree, this forum seems abandoned even though there are +200.000 users of BP, it’s a shame that the forum is not more active.

    Hi there, I started the topic, and just to clarify, of course the subject should have been why you can’t crop the cover image.

    The best solution I found so far, is BP Cover, which at least let you frame the cover image up and down.

    Regards

    The code works with Legend only, not Nouveau.

    This issue has been known for over a year, why hasn’t buddyPress come up with a solution by now?
    When can we expect to see an update from BuddyPress?

    I have the same issue, and have tried all the suggested solutions with no luck.

    The issue occurs randomly, you can’t detect what is causing it. I have a suspicion it is the order plugins are installed but this is impossible to test with 30 plugins or more.

    This is how it looks:

    Hi, and thank you very much for the code, it works very well. Can I, in an easy way ad the blog page to the code, or should I just copy the code and change ‘members’ with ‘blog’?

    I wonder why this code is not part of the build in security in WP and BP, so anyone just can ad a /members /blogs and so on, and see content for logged in users only. i guess you can’t do that in Facebook.

    Generally, that is the problem with BuddyPress – top functionality, but the design sucks, and options for customization is very nerdy.

    Yes, not least because the dimension of the image is important for better results, according to the guideline:
    “For better results, make sure to upload an image that is larger than 720px wide, and 225px tall.”

    The users are not nerds, why not help them by showing a cropping tool, so they can choose which part of the image they want displayed within this dimension?

    Hi Henry, thanks for answering, I have added a child theme with a style.css document. But even changes to the original code, just for testing, no changes are taken place.

    Hi David, the problem is you can’t select which part of the larger image is displayed when you can not crop it yourself.

    Disabling cover images leaves a gray box where the image has been, this is not what you want.

    The cover image is very distorted on mobile devices

    Yes, it is the “Name” field I am referring to, which also is the basis for search options, that is why I am surprised it is not unique.

    Just to be sure we are talking about the same username. It is the BP name under “Profile Details”, not the WP user name under “Account details”?

    I am able to register the same name twice here.

    Not much activity or response given in here, that’s for sure

    Hi there, thanks for your respond. The reason why I want to see my profile, is more a matter of having BP components like messages and notifications visible at all times, without adding them to the theme menu.

    Another strange ting is BP’s redirection to the activity page, when activity component is active. Why does BP not allow users decide which page should be the landing page, when viewing own, and others profile?
    And why do I need to install a third part plugin to have my profile as landing page after login?

    I got a little further on this topic myself and found out that some apache modules in the httpd.conf file should be enabled.

    Here’s a description:
    1. Open apache’s configuration file using your favorite text editor. The configuration file generally locates at:{apache_dir}/conf/httpd.conf
    2. If you are using XAMPP or WAMP package then you will find the file at:{xampp_dir}/apache/conf/httpd.conf
    {wamp_dir}/apache/conf/httpd.conf
    Search for the following string:#LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so and uncomment it (remove the ‘#’ sign).
    3. Now search for another string AllowOverride None and replace it by AllowOverride All
    4. Finally save the changes, close your text editor and restart your apache server.

    But this is not so straight forward in the new XAMPP 7.1.12-0-vm for Mac, because the apache httpd.conf file does not contain the #LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite strings as described above.

    I realize that this is a WordPress issue so I will direct my question to the WP community

    Hi Boone, thank you very much for clarifying about avatars.
    Here are the lightboxes I have tried so far:

    jQuery Colorbox
    WP Colorbox
    WP Lightbox 2
    ARI Fancy Lightbox
    Responsive Lightbox
    Simple Lightbox
    Wp Lightbox Bank Standard Edition

    Generally, an option for choosing avatar sizes in BuddyPress would be much appreciated!

    Regards
    Carsten

    copying the buddypress folder containing the members-loop.php to my child theme leaves my page blank.
    And now the folder can’t be deleted from the child theme…

    “buddypress” could not be deleted, because an error (22126) occurred.

    Thanks, now I think I understand…

    I mean, the buddypress folder in bp-templates/bp-legacy
