blog post mail notification error

    @cepeuh

    hey there,
    i’m currently setting up a small community site using wp 4.0 and bp 2.1 together “subscribe2” for the mail subscriptions and “djd site post” for front end postings by them members.
    now comes my problem: whenever i try to post something, no matter front end or back end, i receive an error message as follows:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_activity_update_meta() in /homepages/4/d105535449/htdocs/igdd_2014-09-18/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-blogs/bp-blogs-functions.php on line 537

    plus, the entry is added to the blog page, but not a single mail notification is sent, neither to the author nor to any member.

    any thoughts on that? would be great.

    best
    christoph

    Does the error disapear when you deactivate the 2 plugins ?
    Which theme do you use ?
    Activate wp_debug in wp-config and sse if you receive other msg errors.

    And don’t forget that WP was recently updated too and can contain bugs, as bp doesn’t handle blog post or emails

    cepeuh – Do you have the activity component enabled? Also make sure you have network-activated BuddyPress.

    thanks for replying so quickly. highly appreciated!


    @r-a-y
    : activity streams are off, site tracking and notifications are on. didn’t have any problems with these settings until wp 4.0 and bp 2.0.


    @danp
    : plugins deactivated, same story, sadly. and, as far as i can see, no other errors concerning messages. the site runs on the “generate press” theme in the pro version.

    cepeuh – Thanks for letting us know. Going to fix this up. In the meantime, you can wrap the bp_activity_update_meta() function around a if ( bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) check to fix the problem temporarily.

    Or you can activate the activity component.

    r-a-y: thx, i’ll give it a try. the activity component is somehting my user won’t need that much, but i’ll check out, if that does the trick.

    thanks for your help!

    Greetings, I too also am NOT using activity streams.

    When publishing a post I get:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_activity_update_meta() in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-blogs/bp-blogs-functions.php on line 537

    The post still gets published.

    I added a “custom function”:

    function bp_activity_update_meta() {}

    and it seams to fix the problem.

    Cheerz

    @islandcastaway: thanks for the tip. i may try this soon.

    in fact activating activity streams does solve the problem. still, i would prefer to run the site without activity streams if possible.
