BuddyPress.org

I’m trying to run a Buddypress 1.1.3-based custom theme on WordPress 3.0. Most things work fine. The main problem is avatar upload. I’ve already made lots of progress copying bits of code from BP 1.2.5.

Apparently a big difference between wpmu and WordPress 3.0 is where avatars are stored. This code in bp-core-cssjs.php….:

$bp->avatar_admin->image->dir

…produces a warning:

Warning: getimagesize(/group-avatars/1/mypicture.jpg) [function.getimagesize]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /serverpath/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-cssjs.php on line 93

The picture actually ended up here, already cropped and with a weird filename:

/serverpath/wp-content/uploads/avatars/1/50d01bc0b08ffcbea47ce388c34cfc63-bpfull.jpg

Which settings decide where avatars are uploaded to? Can I edit them somewhere in the database to make sure?

Which functions decide how the picture is uploaded? Is the coded name a WordPress 3.0 thing?

Edit: I see get_option( ‘upload_path’ ); where is upload_path set? In a clean install of 1.2.5 + 3.0 it’s in database table wp-options. On my upgraded 1.1.3 based sites it’s in wp_1_options etc. -> there is no wp-options. Is that the problem? Should I create one?
