Possible resolution for avatar cropping issues
-
Several people, myself included, have had issues with cropping avatars once they’ve been uploaded. After doing some plugin testing I discovered that “Dynamic Content Gallery” (http://www.studiograsshopper.ch/wordpress-plugins/dynamic-content-gallery-v2/) causes a conflict. This plugin uses SmoothGallery which in turn runs on MooTools.
As many know, Mootools has conflicts with jQuery which is the script used for avatar cropping. I think the problem occurs because of the way Dynamic Content Gallery loads its script into wp_head. I believe this problem can possibly be resolved using the “jQuery.noConflict” command. However since I’m not familiar with javascript, I don’t know how to do it.
The Dynamic Content Gallery plugin is a very important part of several WordPress themes, so just disabling it isn’t really an option. But of course, I also want the the ability to crop my avatars. Any solutions?
FYI:
I’m running WP MU 2.6.5, the latest stable version of BuddyPress (not the trunk), and using the “Revolution Church” theme (http://www.revolutiontwo.com/themes/church).
