[Resolved] Jquery bug in Buddypress 2.1?

Still a satisfied user for buddypress for some time but I’m getting the following error in global.js on http://www.swnk.org after I updated to the newest version:

Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function.

It’s referring to this line:

jq.cookie( 'bp-activity-oldestpage', 1, {

I thought it might be conflicting jquery in my code or something, but after disabling jquery.site.js, the problem remained. It seems like I’m not including two versions of jquery either. I also tried to to define jq again as jquery (just trying everything I could think of) but that didn’t help either.

As a result the slider on the homepage doesn’t work anymore, and probably more jquery code that isn’t executed.

Anybody any idea how to fix this?

After the last update to Buddypress 2.1 I’m having the same issue:
Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function (jq.cookie is not a function)
global.js?ver=2.1 (line 1329)

I’m using default bp theme (legacy) and WP 4.0 Multisite.
Thank you for any help.

I don’t know if its the right solution but it worked for me. Replacing the global.js (wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/) to an earlier version fixed the jquery problem for me.

thanks, I’ve done it however I think it’s not perfect because it might break some new functionalities included in the new BP version
