UPDATE:

I have created a plugin so when I add <div id="hollysage" style="padding-bottom:10px;"></div> within my sites template it track the age and shows Holly Willoughby is 34 years 10 months and 19 days old. as text anywhere I chose to place it.

What I need now is so it automatically post on all users activity feeds. Happy Birthday Holly. on every 10th of February regardless of the year. This date and only on this date. Any help would be appreciated! The plugin I have is housed in a folder called hollysage The following files are in there.

Config.php

<?php

// Language file

	require_once(CURRENTDIR . '/language_cn.php');

}

define('TIMEZONE', get_option('gmt_offset'));

// Holly Willoughbys Date of birth
$bornYear = 1981;
$bornMonth = 2;

<?php

$lang['day'] = " days";
$lang['and'] = " and ";
$lang['fullstop'] = " old.";

?>

To use it currently I add

<div id="hollysage" style="padding-bottom:10px;"></div>

Can someone help me with adding a status update as detailed above at the start of this support topic request?

Thanks!

@Mark … I tested it with Twenty Fifteen WordPress Standard Theme and the problem happens. Then it is not properly a theme problem

I use the woothemes Canvas Theme release 5.9.3 and 5.9.15 (the latest).

To make work properly rtmedia was necessary add a fixing in the child theme functions.php and it worked properly:

// BuddyPress - Fixing for rtMedia
function rtmedia_main_template_include($template, $new_rt_template) { 
	global $wp_query; 
	$wp_query->is_singular = true; 
	return get_page_template(); 
} 
add_filter('rtmedia_main_template_include', 'rtmedia_main_template_include', 20, 2);

In any case, if with the standard wordpress theme the problem happens and then it could not be a theme problem, then rtmedia could have some conflict with another module.

Anyway, I will open an account on the rtmedia website and i will open a ticket, adding screenshots of the problem.

Kind regards

@shanebp .. I have found something.

I have seen just now that deactivating this plugin, the problem is no more present:

“rtMedia for WordPress, BuddyPress and bbPress”.

Then, the latest release of the rtMedia Plugin to upload and manage images introduced new problems.

Hi,
– WordPress 4.4 – Upgraded from the previous release
– BuddyPress 2.4.3 – Upgraded from the previous release
– No customization in buddypress core
–

I have added a new post where I explained all the things in a better way, giving all the details about wordpress, buddypress and the plugins. But I added it 2 times but in both cases it was not published, I don’t know why.

In practice is the Filtering that is not working for any user that is not admin. My admin account works properly.

Another thing that happens is that keeping the Activity Stream page opened, the bar that says “Load Newest” appear also if there is no new post in the stream.

I tested using the default WordPress Theme Tweenty Fifteen but the problem happens also there.

About the theme used. It is Woothemes Canvas 5.9.3 and 5.9.15 . Never had problems with these themes using BuddyPress.

The only customization that I did for BuddyPress are just CSS tags and when I upgraded to the new wordpress release and to the buddypress latest release, everything worked properly between buddypress, wordpress and the theme.

About the plugins, I didn’t changed them until now. I will make a test deactivating some plugins.

What is the reason that make you think that can be a plugin?

Kind regards.

G.Aloe
