    I’ve installed BP 1.2.1 on WP 2.9.2 (not mu), when I go to create a group get to the step to upload an avatar, I select the image to upload, but I can not see it but on the server i see it … same thing when I go in the administration after i’ve created the group to change the avatar, upload the image but I do not see it and so I should not cut (see picture: http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/1441/schermata20100304a10215.png)

    how can I solve this problem?

    thanks for the help!

    Go to Settings -> Miscellaneous Settings


    Set “Store uploads in this folder” to “wp-content/uploads”.


    Set “Full URL path to files” to the REAL FULL PATH of your uploads.


    Then change bp-core-avatars.php line 389:

    Replace

    :
if ( !$path = get_option( ‘upload_path’ ) )


    $path = WP_CONTENT_DIR . ‘/uploads’;


    With:


    if ( !$path = get_option( ‘upload_path’ ) )


    $path = WP_CONTENT_DIR . ‘/uploads’;
else
$path = ABSPATH . $path;

    It fixes the problem.

    Since this is a modification in one core file, you need to do that everytime you upgrade BP. Don’t foget!

    Unless it gets fixed in the future.

    I just installed a test WP3.+BP1.2.5 and get the same error on Avatar upload, Group Docs Plugin etc.
    Advice from above “Then change bp-core-avatars.php line 389:” there is nothing like it on that line. I searched for “WP_CONTENT_DIR ” but again found nothing.

    Found this bug tracker post: Ticket #2317 (closed defect: fixed) (https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2317). It might not be fixed now. Has anyone experienced the same issue. My WP3.0 is network enabled.
