BuddyPress.org

Hi Roger, I jumped to a solution then, when in fact it does not work correctly, sorry…

I have used your code from page 1 to display featured image on the bp activity stream. However I have a gravity form that lets user upload posts from their, I have used this simple snipet of code to make the upload image a featured image.

add_filter(“gform_post_submission”, “set_post_thumbnail_as”, 10, 2);
function set_post_thumbnail_as($entry, $form){
//getting first image associated with the post
$post_id = $entry[“post_id”];
$attachments = get_posts(array(‘numberposts’ => ‘1’, ‘post_parent’ => $post_id, ‘post_type’ => ‘attachment’, ‘post_mime_type’ => ‘image’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’));
if(sizeof($attachments) == 0)
return; //no images attached to the post
//setting first image as the thumbnail for this post
update_post_meta( $post_id, ‘_thumbnail_id’, $attachments[0]->ID);
}

This works perfectly for wordpress and displays the featured image correctly. However the featured image does not appear in the buddypress activity stream until I manually go to that post and hit update in the backend… really defeats the purpose of publishing the post… pulled my hair out for days on this.. Do you have any suggestions? I believe it is something to do with the way bp saves posts… Maybe bp_activity_post_update would work

thank you Paul, already found an issue. It was some conflict of divs/classes in my child theme, which, somehow, appearead only after update.

thanks again.

No — see https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/bp-default-theme-changelog/

(ignore all the property changes, those are irrelevant)

spent few hours and no success.
I do see that in bp-default 1.2.9 reveal is working (help section with question sign in profile header), but why after update it stoped working in my child theme?
tried to switch off all plugins, removed functions.php, member-header.php etc.

were there any changes to default.css in 1.2.9?

thanks.

thanks Paul, I had to write that these are two separate questions.
First one is still opened.

BuddyPress.org is being worked on, and is unrelated to the 1.2.9 release.

I have found a solution if you are using gravity forms… I just need to know who to add the post id into the form submission function because atm it just uploads the image to the actually form page

add_action(“gform_pre_submission_2”, “gform_registration”);

function gform_registration( $form_meta ){

// $post_id gets set here by some code I have removed for clarity

// If there is a logo, attach that file and make it the post featured image

if($_FILES) {

//WordPress Administration API required for the media_handle_upload() function

require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/file.php’);

require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/image.php’);

require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/media.php’);

$media_id = media_handle_upload(‘input_3’, $post_id);

my_set_post_thumbnail( $post_id, $media_id);

}

}

// This function will be obsolete once WP 3.1 is release since that includes

// an identical function name set_post_thumbnail

function my_set_post_thumbnail( $post, $thumbnail_id ) {

$post = get_post( $post );

$thumbnail_id = absint( $thumbnail_id );

if ( $post && $thumbnail_id && get_post( $thumbnail_id ) ) {

$thumbnail_html = wp_get_attachment_image( $thumbnail_id, ‘thumbnail’ );

if ( ! empty( $thumbnail_html ) ) {

update_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘_thumbnail_id’, $thumbnail_id );

return true;

}

}

return false;

}

does anyone have same issue in BP 1.2.9, that help section in member’s header (after @username) does not reveal anymore?

what is happening to buddypress.org? I cannot search, do not see updates in single view. Support topics don’t have pagination anymore, cannot edit/delete topics etc.

thanks.

Double-checked this for a friend, BuddyPress does not work where WordPress is given its own directory. I figured the rationale was one cannot create a network with that set up https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network#WordPress_Settings_Requirements. I just moved WP to physical subdomain and it was good to go

bp_before_members_loop is not a function, it is a WP action hook. Plugins and themes can use this hook to add functionality to your members page. Read the first limo provided by chouf1 to learn more, or google “WordPress hooks”.

Also, as megainfo suggests, it’s a good idea to learn a little about grep, which will help a lot in these instances.

I haven’t used or tested this plugin, but it looks like it might work for you.

P.S. Go Jumbos! I’m an alum.

In case anyone googles here, the article posted by r-a-y works for different subdomains, but needs a bit of tweaking, based on this post:

http://roneiv.wordpress.com/2008/01/18/get-the-content-of-an-iframe-in-javascript-crossbrowser-solution-for-both-ie-and-firefox/

Basically, we need to put the wordpress page with the adminbar only in an invisible iFrame and access its content from the parent.

To do this, first we add the iFrame to the external php / html file. Something like this works:

`

`

Next, we need to edit the `page-component.php` file, adding a head and body onload element:

`

document.domain = “site.com”

`

This sets document.domain to the same domain as we will specify in our external file. It also adds jQuery (needed for buddypress-ajax-chat on my site). Finally, it sets an onload event to tell the parent window to grab it’s content.

Next, we have to add some more javascript to the parent, along with the other links mentioned in the article above:

`document.domain=”sirimangalo.org”;
function getNav() {
var content = document.getElementById(‘bpsrc’).contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML;
document.getElementById(‘bpContainer’).innerHTML = content;
}`

This sets the domain again, allowing the function to pass from the iFrame on up, and provides the function to grab the content of the source frame and output it to the “bpContainer” div.

I got the exact same issue here @tindell … featured image will not display in buddypress activty until I update it in the backend of wordpress manually Has anyone come up with a solution? This is really frustrating!!!! Ah buddypress

The function is in bp-themes/bp-default/members/members-loop.php]

What do you currently have at the root of your domain?

It would be pretty much the same as moving WordPress from subfolder to domain root or elsewhere.
Always backup database and server files to your computer hard drive before attempting the change, just in case.
