A recent Buddypress update modified the previously working css.
It might fix the issue for you, but if it don’t, you have a backup. If that is the case, try another theme.
Make a backup of your Buddypress CSS folder.
Replace the code in avatar.min.css with the code from the link above.
Clear cache in Safari, and try again. If the problem persists, activate a different theme, like Twenty Seventeen, and try it again.
Please disregard this issue. I apologize, there was a conflict with my child theme. Graphene theme is working fine with BP/iOS.
I disabled Neo, and tried uploading with Graphene theme active, but Graphene theme doesn’t work either.
If I write to the theme’s author, what should I say?
You were correct. I switched to Twenty Seventeen, and it worked.
I’m using the Graphene theme, along with its special “Graphene Mobile Neo” theme for mobile.
Can I correct this problem by putting !important in front of some properties in avatar.min.css?
If so, which properties should I add that to?Or if that’s not the solution, is there a better way to solve this besides switching to a different theme?
Thank you!
I’m sorry, for some reason this is not working on my site with iOS devices.
Can you give me a link to another live BP site with this fix in place, so I can see if I can change avatar on that site?
I copied my original BP’s avatar.css to avatar.min.css, deleted Safari’s cache, and was unable to upload a profile photo with my iPad mini.
Do you happen to have a copy of the css file that worked for the other user? If so, can I have a link to it, or can you paste it here?
If you don’t have it, can you tell me which BP version would have working css? I’m not sure which version crippled the iOS, but I would like to find out which version has working css so I can at least revert back to those css files.
Did you try it?
I have an iPad Mini, and a regular iPad. The same problem occurs on both devices.
The iPad mini is using version 9.3.5 (That’s the latest for this device.)
The regular iPad (original, 1st generation) is using version 8.4.1 (Out-dated version.)
If anyone else with an iOS device is reading this message, please try the patch and let us know how it goes for you.
Thank you for the link, that was much easier for me.
I replaced my avatar.css with the code from the link, and deleted cache from Safari. Then, I tapped “Choose File,” and the iOS file browser popped up. I selected a photo, and a thumbnail version of the photo appeared to the right of the “Choose File” button, and “1 Photo” appeared to the right of the thumbnail.
I tapped “Upload Image,” and the browser displayed the typical progress bar at the bottom of the address bar. But a few seconds later, the function returned to the way it starts: The old profile photo is still in place, and the thumbnail that was displayed to the right of the “Choose File” button is no longer there. It’s as if the upload was aborted, or something.
On a side note: With the old css, I had issues changing avatar with Linux Mint w/Chrome, but with this new CSS it works with Linux Mint w/Chrome. That’s good! But what can we do about this iOS issue?
By the way, thank you for creating this patch and for working on the issue.
I’m not sure if I’m applying the patch correctly.
Do I just replace lines 148-152 (pink-background) with lines 148-152 (yellow-background) ?
The rest of the code seems to be unchanged. And I’m aware that I need to do this in both avatar-rtl.css, along with avatar.css.
Is there more to it? This is my first time looking at the BP ticket/patch system that you guys use. The way I described is the way I tried it the first time, but before I try it again, I just want to be sure that I’m attempting it properly.
I have the same problem.
I tried the patch, but it still didn’t work for me. Does the patch work for anyone else?
When I say it didn’t work for me, I mean I click the “Select your file” button, and nothing happens. (Exception: the css hover properties take effect – but no file browsing takes place.)
I read some older posts on this subject dating back to 5 years ago. Is iOS avatar upload a new thing for BP?
I’m going to do the bump.. But let’s take an easier approach to this topic:
Anyone know how I can at least prevent the member-header from being displayed upon creation of a private message?
Let’s forget about sticking the recipient’s photo in there for now, and take it one step at a time.
I just don’t know which file this involves. compose.php seems to make no reference to bp_displayed_user_avatar(), so I’m wondering why is the avatar appearing?
