my avatars dont crop now on a fresh brand new install.. they did on an old one.

old http://bp.spotskenya.com

NEW http://spotskenya.com

help (i have checked permissions and they all are 755)

@oceandoctor i too have the same problem.. its verry strange as i have it running on bp.spotskenya.com and just did a fresh install with new DB on spotskenya.com alls well apart from the avatar crop and resize.. i can click through but all i get is a black box..

it seems that this may be an issue with the version we have downloaded as it was working on an instalation about a week ago and now its not.

I have checked my permission and as far as i can see they are 755

so basically please do let me know

OTHERS whats do you think the problem is

this is the lastest url http://spotskenya.com

I’m having the same issue on a new install of beta. My permissions are correct. Was this resolved?

You may want to try a larger image. There are still issues, but currently buddypress doesn’t have anyway to “upsize” images before cropping. The early beta had a minimum image size of 450x450px, and generally have had pretty good luck when using images of that size or larger.

Make sure the js and css files on your server are set to 755. Everywhere in bp. I just went down to root and did:

chmod -R 755 mu-plugins

from within /wp-content

Also, we would have to create an account on your system to view your profile. Can’t just go look at that url.

Jepp. Cropping works, but not fine. The cropping code from PerS looks nice.

ya, I’m having the crop problem too, I just downloaded and installed bp…

i tried IE7 and google chrome…

I suggest that the cropping code is replaced with http://deepliquid.com/projects/Jcrop/demos.php .. it works like a charm

edit: here’s the thumbnail demo: http://deepliquid.com/projects/Jcrop/demos.php?demo=thumbnail

We’ve been working with Lisa Sabin Wilson of eWebscape who built a custom BuddyPress installation on our newly launched site http://www.weheartthis.com

(Andy – We love it so far and think it will really help us build a great community!)

Some of the biggest issues we’ve faced:

1) IE issues – page alignment is off, toolbars do not work, lots of 404 messages (we’ve encouraged our members who use IE to download Firefox or Safari instead, fingers crossed that the official release will help with some of these bugs)

2) We have the same avatar cropping issue as mentioned by other posters – it’s very hit or miss for us, sometimes it works fine, sometimes it just can’t be done at all)

3) The browser title bar will read, “oops, that’s a 404 page” or “nothing found for ____” even when it isn’t a 404 page or it has found something.

4) We have installed BBpress forums as well. The password and login of our member works for both applications, but members need to login at second time when they land on the forum main page (even if they have already logged in earlier)

Thanks (and any feedback on the site is appreciated.)

The same problem on my friend’s blog. Don’t know what to do.

We’re interested in integrating a forum and defining new css next

Thanks

ps: we’re having issues with cropping of avatars

Every setup is probably different, but mine are owned by apache:apache.

I can crop avatars, but with problems… I have to drag the box into the top left corner… only then can I drag the right bottom corner. Otherwise the cropping box can’t be resized – the corner just won’t do anything.

Using Firefox btw.

I’m having avatar cropping issues in IE 7, but Firefox is working properly.

I have the same issue regarding avatars (no cropping tool) and just made a post regarding it.

Thank apeatling,

Now can upload/edit avatar but the original image on activation page doesn’t show (the page that let people crop dimension) I try to check .. no orginal image in wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/avatars only have avatar file that crop to 150×150 already

For error bp-core-settings.php, I had temporary comment out

/* require_once( ‘bp-core/bp-core-settings.php’ ); */
