Just to add I have had a smilar no cropping issue (leaving black thumbs) and isolated the issue down to the WP Carousel plugin which iteslf resolved a previous issue I was having with an old jQuery image gallery!

I am now stuck between a rock and a hard place- have the nice image gallery rotating on the home page OR have the cropping fucntions working correctly wihtin BuddyPress

Weirdest issue with this jquery compatabilty theory is that I actually modified the WP Carousel plugin so it didn’t pull in it’s own jquery.js file so there SHOULD be no conflicts.

Will get in touch with the plugin authors but can I ask Jeff or anyone else what version of jQuery we can expect to see in the next BuddyPress update?

If I know this I can at least give the plugin developers a little more idea as to what I would like in an ideal world (after 1.2.6) but I can see some late nights getting friendly with jQuery ahead zzzz

Wow – thanks you both so much for the quick and concise replies.

This is the most helpful and knowlegable forum I have ever used!

Burt’s code was perfect

Cheers Jeff – didn’t realise you needed to set the threads as resolved. Will do in future!

I just wanted to state that if I put my own css styles for the html and body tags here:

wp-content/bp-themes/bpmember/css/custom.css

they are not used within the members and groups areas like Jason states but weirdly the actual profile subdirectory area takes not of my custom.css

http://mysite.com/members/myusername/

To fix this for now I have removed the css styles for the html and body tagsfrom the base.css but I would appreciate if anyone else had noticed this and understands why these areas don’t overwite ALL of the base.css to post some clarifcations.

cheers

I have actually gone for the wp-carousel plugin and removed the call to jquery.js that is comes with built in and it seems to be working well with the verison of jquery BuddyPress uses!

Thanks for all the help.

Does antone have any recomendations for BuddyPress compatible javascipt slider / gallery effects?

[@thebloghouse Participant 17 years ago]

Yeah JJJ – can’t wait!

All this hassle has made me realise that if I want the benefits of WordPress MU then I need to switch the ‘sliding’ components that were working on the old, standalone wordpress blogs to something that keeps up (well nearly at least!) with WPMU and it’s jQuery updates

[@thebloghouse Participant 17 years ago]

Thanks Burt

I understand what you are saying

It is soooo infuriating though as I am not a jQuery coder so can’t pinpoint the exact issue but I will battle on.

Looking forward to getting fully involved with the BuddyPress community once I have this current project sorted too!

Thanks for the replies guys.

I have managed to isolate this down to the wp_head(); call in my header and THINK the jQuery version that WordPress loads, wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.2.6 is not compatible with the scripts I am using which used to load jquery-1.2.3.pack.js

The script I am currently fighting with is the following jCarousel one here</> if anyone is interested although a slider one also doesn’t work but one thing at a time
