@whateverfightingsquirrel BP ALBUM: “Hey server, what is the location of the image file the user just uploaded?” SERVER: “The file location is: http://mywebsite.com/home/accountname/public_html/wp-content/uploads/album/1/imageupload-600×450-150×150.jpg” BP ALBUM: “Thanks, I will store that to the database” WEB BROWSER: “Hey BP Album, what’s the l…[Read more]

@anointed This is precisely the kind of situation the new plugin architecture is designed to handle. First off, one feature we’ll be adding is media embeds using short codes. If the site admin enables this feature, users will be presented with an embed code below their media items. Something like . When a user pastes it […]

@whateverfightingsquirrel In your case, the problem is the Private Server (VPS). The root of the problem is this: the image file has two different locations, depending on which piece of software you ask. If you ask PHP, it’s in: http://mywebsite.com/home/accountname/public_html/wp-content/uploads/album/1/imageupload-600×450-150×150.jpg And if y…[Read more]

@thekmen

If the not saving of keyword tags is not on the issue tracker, please add it to the issue tracker.

^F^

@erickwyatt

We’re working on it.

^F^

@tat2d

@thekmen is correct. You will have to access the site using FTP and delete the bp-album directory.

You should also seriously consider moving to a different web host. The next version of WordPress, due out in a few months, will *REQUIRE* PHP5

^F^

@thekmen lol…yes, its still being developed. I should point out that there are a lot of different aspects of running a project like this: we have to write the code, we have to test the code, we have to do docs, we have to answer questions in forums, and so on. Not hearing from us is […]

@thekmen

No values saved to the DB table or no values displayed? Keyword tags? Member tags? or EXIF tags?

^F^

@tobi906 It’s because you’re on a cheap shared web host with strange server settings. Your *web host* is passing the wrong image file location to BP Media, and BP Media is attempting to display a nonexistent image. Version 0.1.9 of the plugin has an override setting that you can use to get around this problem, but […]

@alanchrishughes

Then you should probably move to a different hosting company.

WordPress will *REQUIRE* PHP 5.2 in the next major version, due out in a few months. (Technically BP Media only requires PHP 5.2)

PHP 4 and MySQL 4 End of Life Announcement

Thanks!

^F^

@alanchrishughes

Actually, 0.1.9 will probably work *brilliantly* on your new site. We wrote you guys a tutorial to show you how to use the new “Featured Content Loop”, which does exactly what you’re trying to do.

Take a look:

^F^

@alanchrishughes

Unfortunately, no. That’s why we added code for it in 0.1.9

Some users have had limited success filtering the activity stream to show only posts from BP Album+, but that has no privacy settings of course.

^F^

@kenazar It could be for several reasons. 1) The template that displays single images is just a stand-in until we get the final version finished, so its *full* of PHP code that’s doing all the calculations. 2) The “default” BuddyPress theme has some quirkiness to it, and we need to fully test and code around it. […]

@modemlooper

Twitter user? … lol

Yes, its full of errors. But its much faster to “crowd source” finding them all and have the two developers spend their time fixing them all. That lets us get the job done a week or two faster.

Thanks!

^F^

@drewid82 It sounds like you have several different problems that are interacting with each other, so we’re going to have to debug this step by step. 1) Are you using PHP version at least 5.3? 2) Are the write permissions on your directories set properly? 3) Are you *absolutely sure* your .htaccess and rewrite rules are […]

@markhahnel

I haven’t worked with version 0.1.7 in over 4 months, but IIRC…

1) Drop all tables with the prefix “bp_album_”
2) Delete the bp_album directory
3) Deactivate plugin
4) Activate plugin

…and it should work

^F^

@rolandogomez

We’re just finishing up the embedded media integration. After that we have to give the data model a final look over, then it should be ready for testing on live sites. I would estimate about 10 more days.

Thanks!

^F^

@bluebird2 Well, firstly, do all of the other menus, features, etc that are part of BuddyPress work in the Arabic alphabet? Second, is it only the activity stream where you are seeing the problem? Third, is it just BP Media that is doing this, or do all other activity stream posts have the same problem? Thanks! […]
