BuddyPress.org

i added a note to this ticket:

https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/1294

basically i found a few inconsistencies with file paths in the group section – also bp-groups-templatetags.php had a bunch of wrong file paths (double // in group urls) – the image path being sent to process did not contain the fullpath to the file – it would be just wp-content/uploads/etc instead of /home/user/domain/wp-content/uploads/etc)

the image width check was failing (on bp-core-avatars.php)

if ( getimagesize( $bp->avatar_admin->original['file'] ) > BP_AVATAR_ORIGINAL_MAX_WIDTH )

to

list($width, $height) = getimagesize( $bp->avatar_admin->originalfile? );

if ( $width > BP_AVATAR_ORIGINAL_MAX_WIDTH )

wp_crop_image ignores gif/png and saves everything as jpg (killing transparency – though to note the jquery cropper script does not support transparency during the UI selection)

Hi JJJ,

the issue is still there:

https://trac.buddypress.org/attachment/ticket/1363/avatar_strange_squares.gif

Hmmmm – sorry to pick that up again… it is strange… I am running on trunk r2638 and when a user uploads a new avatar it just seems to mess things up… The small avatars show the just uploaded image, but the bigger (for updates and in the profile) stay on the old one from earlier BP-Versions).

Can anyone help me with that strange issue???? Why is that? Any solutions?

Hi,

As a newbie i first want to thank the community for buddypress – I hope I will get everything to work properly.

I cannot get images to work on my site http://www.nannys.dk

When trying to upload an avatar to a profile i get to a page where i can crop. The image is not visible, so unfortunately I cannot crop. Standard avatars work fine.

Also it does not collect Gravatar.

When inserting an image to a blogpost, i cannot get to show the image. The image is uploaded, but not shown.

I hope some friendly person can assist me?

Best regards

Now my uploaded image is showing. The problem was blogs.php file in wp-content. It was dissapeared in upgrade process. I uploaded it again and all avatars and blogs working fine

I should also add that I see the images in the folder on the server, they just don’t appear on the site. I’ve tried various sizes and nothing works.

mine is holding on to the full address of the user and keep int the wp-content/ in the address:

Hey JJJ;

I would like to reiterate that @etiviti (rich!) posted a potential solution earlier, but I can’t figure out how/where to implement it in the bp core files.

I am having the same problem that the avatar image is not being displayed, but when checking the code, (and using firebug) it is clear there is a simple ‘/’ missing from the image url path:

PAGE SOURCE CODE WAS:

Notice there is no ‘/’ before the wp-content in the image src= call.

SOURCE CODE SHOULD BE:

When I add the slash in front of wp-content in the src= call, the image(s) appear. Problem is, I can’t figure out how to get the core files to display the src= url properly.

PLEASE HELP US ALL!!!

Hi!

I’m having problems with uploading avatars! I checked admin area in wordpress to see if upload works properly and it does. My problem is here http://www.pandragon.com/pan_avatar.jpg

Also This is another silly question but is there a way I can only allow links to be links within my site? So if someone is talking about a game they can only link to a page in my site that has the game they are talking about?

This is using own theme template with Bpress.

Problem:

When I upload it tries getting image from this path:

“http://www.pandragon.com/home/pdks/public_html//avatars/2/avatar14885_1.jpg”

If i get rid of “home/pdks/public_html/” the avatar is there! = http://www.pandragon.com/avatars/2/avatar14885_1.jpg

How can I remove “home/pdks/public_html”

Success!

JJJ – I implemented your fix mentioned above and here: https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/1970

*****

bp-core-avatars.php line 389

Replace

if ( !$path = get_option( 'upload_path' ) )<br />

$path = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/uploads';<br />

With:

if ( !$path = get_option( 'upload_path' ) )<br />

$path = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/uploads';<br />

else<br />

$path = ABSPATH . $path;</p>

<p>

and then in “Settings >> Miscellaneous” simply kept “Store uploads in this folder” as wp-content/uploads and in “Full URL path to files” added the full url path of the uploads folder: http://www.yoursite.com/wp-content/uploads

Worked beautifully! Thanks so much all for all your help!!

Hi,

I have the same problem with a ”ported” buddypress installation [in site with several months] and I don’t have this problem with a fresh install [test site]

I read and try fix above. I try change my URL/path in media settings [path to uploads] … nothing works

Then I simply erase all data in misc options … [as I see in fresh install]

And work!

Maybe a coincidence … but work.

all the best

This worked for me:

(see “Settings” >> “Miscellaneous”)

Clear “Store uploads in this folder”-path

Set “Full URL path to files” to absolute server path , e.g. “/home/_several_/_folder_/_levels_/wp-content/uploads”
