@Annoyed, What theme are you using? Do you have a link I could take a look at. Often the problem is that a theme or plugin includes a different version of jquery to the that comes with Wordpress. You could load jquery from google. Put this code at the top of your functions.php (in your theme […]

@nonegiven, @mistercyril You can disable Gravatars! Perhaps you should put in some effort to research the subject. I have disabled it on many sites that I’ve built. I won’t lie to you, I’m not a fan of gravatar because the actual gravatars look cheap and tacky. This plugin is the most effective and easiest way of disabling […]

I know you don’t want to use a plugin or edit the core files but then you’ve basically got no options to disable gravatar. This will help, even though it is a plugin http://netweblogic.com/wordpress/plugins/disable-user-gravatar/

With Buddypress a user has the ability to ‘favorite’ an activity item..

Is there a way of displaying the most ‘favorite’ activity updates of all the users with in site. So it would basically be the most popular activity items… Just wondering how I would go about do this…
