I have the same issue with the favorite button (using BP Template pack), when I replace the text button with an image. I think, it’s a problem with the AJAX code, but I can’t figure out, what needs to be changed in the JS – I suspect it’s because of the DOM traversal ending at a wrong element.
Sounds great – and yes, it looks like I will have to develop a plugin myself too. Do you think that it does make sense to use Custom Post Types to store the data?
@thealchemist it does work. The admin /dashboard settings can be ignored – it adds a menu link (“Example”) to the member’s page where you can send the High Five to another member.
I’m not a coder, but I will look into the example and try to adapt it.
There seems to be one error with the notifications though (says: bp-example-core.php on line 645).
Using this PlugIn (during the registration) my users still have to fill out three mandatory fields (Full Name, First- and Last Name)… and this doesn’t make sense…
Is there a solution for this? Having to fill in redundant information (first name, last name and full name) seems to be a big no no during registration. The website of the creator of “Real Names” doesn’t seem to be reachable anymore.
