This isn’t possible by default. You’ll need to find a plugin (I’m not aware that one exists) or you could write some custom code (will require quite a lot of effort).
Try adding this to compose.php right under the private message <textarea></textarea>
wp_editor( '', 'content' );
I do believe that should be enough to get the basic editor working for private messages on the compose screen.
Note 1: Untested
Note 2: You can also pass an array of arguments in the form of $settings. This is optional. It will let you do slightly more advanced stuff like load TinyMCE or quicktags. See the Codex link above for more info.
Actually that particular query will most probably be querying more than 60k records. You have 60k users, but the query in bp-activity-classes.php on line 387 is querying activity items. Considering an activity item gets added each time a user registers, changes their avatar, writes an update, a comment, a reply etc, then I’d guess there will be far more than just 60k rows.
What exactly is happening regarding the queries? Are they just running slowly or are they timing out and failing to complete? If they are timing out then try increasing the value of max_execution_time in your php.ini file, maybe to something like 180 seconds.
@j-j 60,000 members is an awful lot compared to most BuddyPress installations! Whilst low-performance is less noticeable on websites that have low-traffic, it explains why your queries are taking the extra time.
Going into 2.0, I think the core team realised more could be done to help sites such as your own, so they earmarked lots of areas of 1.9.2 that could be improved performance-wise. I think it might be more profitable in the long run for you to resolve the 502 error, rather than addressing a handful of queries that are running slowly. It’s likely that these queries have already been addressed in 2.0 – along with so much more.
As an admin you can contact all uses using a sitewide notice. This depends on the messaging component being activated. If you want to contact members individually or if you want to disable private messaging then the only option I can see is to email them directly.
I’m not aware of a plugin that will do that for you so you may need to change the sign-up form’s code. Caution though, at this point a user isn’t registered or activated so you need to decide if you want to allow anonymous uploading
@j-j ah man! Before you roll-back, sometimes a 502 error is easy to resolve so maybe give these steps a try:
1. Hit F5 or hard reload
2. Clear your browser’s cache (sometimes outdated files are cached by the browser)
3. Delete cookies (same as 2 but for cookies)
Not exactly an answer to your question but related to your site’s performance, take a look at Boone’s blog post. In particular the section on performance enhancements. Consider upgrading to BP 2.0 before you spend too much time investigating why 1.9.2 is slowing down your site.
@godavid33 good to see you figured it out. Just a question: Considering members must be logged in to favorite an item, why do you need to use wp_ajax_nopriv_?
