BuddyPress.org

I looked into this a while ago. I don’t know if any plugins have provided it — if so, the code will be hacky — because achieving this requires changing some data storage we do in BuddyPress, which is a bit of a complicated issue to resolve well.

The situation is BuddyPress is incompatible with PHP 7.1 as things stand. One issue means a fix in BuddyPress (which we’ve already fixed, and will have out in a release soon, but probably after Christmas), and the other issue I’ve found (which BP sites have a realistic site of running into) require a fix in WordPress, which I hope that team will…[Read more]

Shouldn’t be. Ask your host to get you your server’s PHP Error log. It’ll be full up of stuff, if you’re getting 500s.

Then, post that here, and we’ll help identify where the errors coming from.

Keep an eye on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7392

I don’t disagree but until someone sets up PHP 7.1 locally, tests and patches everything, which is then signed-off by a regular contributor (also requiring a PHP 7.1) process, things are going to move slow. This is a volunteer project. Hopefully by next week we should see some fixes.

Okay. The story is that PHP 7.1 is supported by WordPress 4.7 (or newer). Likewise, BuddyPress will need at least that version, too.

We’re currently tracking some unit test failures in PHP 7.1 (see the very bottom of https://travis-ci.org/buddypress/BuddyPress), but we’ve not figured out if they are our bugs, or some bug in WordPress core.…[Read more]

Thanks for finding that one.

I’m trying to get someone from the WordPress team to confirm some details on their PHP 7.1 support, and once I have that, I’ll reply here again.

Well, debug what bbp_get_reply_author_id is, etc. It looks like it should work, but I don’t know where exactly you’re adding this code (if it’s outside the reply templating loop, it won’t work, I’m guessing) — and this is something you should just debug locally until you figure it out.

Yes. The option values themselves are stored in the database, and they need to be there to verify that the submitted form data is valid.

Hi @davehakkens

bp_member_profile_data() defaults to the current user in the members loop… It is probably coincidence this is the thread starter user, but I can’t remember how bbPress interacts with it.

What I think you want to do is

bp_get_member_profile_data(array('field'=>'country', 'user_id' => bbp_get_reply_author_id()))

That way you’re…[Read more]

They ARE. See https://codex.buddypress.org/activity-embeds/

@r-a-y Since you worked on this. Any ideas?

@Scaffies (@jenfilgate i’m going to ASSUME you have EXACTLY the same issue, otherwise you should make your own forum topic)

You said:

type “Subscriber” / “Participant” can no longer upload new profile pictures, or pictures, video, or audio to their personal galleries

BuddyPress doesn’t have “personal galleries” built-in. We only support uploadi…[Read more]

@r-a-y Did the livestamp changes in 2.7 affect how we’re storing the field *value*?
