BP_Activity_Component object appears to be missing $table_name. Anyone know why?

    I’ve been getting weird errors when trying to log an activity item via bp_activity_add():

    WordPress database error You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '( user_id, component, type, action, content, primary_link, date_recorded, item_i' at line 1 for query INSERT INTO ( user_id, component, type, action, content, primary_link, date_recorded, item_id, secondary_item_id, hide_sitewide, is_spam ) VALUES ( 3163, 'members', 'new_member', '', '', '', '2015-07-16 15:47:00', 0, 0, 0, 0 ) made by require('wp-blog-header. php'), require_once('wp-load.php'), require_once('/srv/www/commons/current/web/wp-config. php'), require_once('wp-settings.php'), include('/themes/tuileries/functions.php'), bp_activity_add, BP_Activity_Activity->save

    As you can see, there’s no table name here. It should be INSERT INTO wp_bp_activities... or thereabouts. It looks like BP_Activity_Activity->save() is trying to access $bp->activity->table_name, but $bp->activity doesn’t have a table_name property at this stage. Instead, this is all that is in $bp->activity: 

    
BP_Activity_Component Object
(
    [name] => Activity Streams
    [id] => activity
    [slug] =>
    [has_directory] =>
    [path] => /srv/www/commons/current/web/app/plugins/buddypress/
    [query] =>
    [current_id] =>
    [notification_callback] =>
    [admin_menu] =>
    [search_string] =>
    [root_slug] =>
    [meta_tables] => Array
        (
        )

    [global_tables] => Array
        (
        )

    [adminbar_myaccount_order] => 10
)

    Why isn’t there a table name here? How can I fix this?

    It’s probably a timing issue – the name hasn’t been set at the point where you run your code.

    What hook are you using for the function that uses bp_activity_add ?

    I’m putting this in my theme’s functions.php, just to test it out there. But the function will eventually be triggered when a user registers for the site, wherever that appears in the code.

    Use a hook for testing, something like:

    function jr_test() {
   bp_activity_add(...); 
}
add_action( 'bp_ready', 'jr_test' );

    You’re right–putting it lower in the loading order fixed it. Thanks!
