    @boonebgorges

    I’m trying to find out whether I’ve discovered a bug, or whether it’s related to the plugins / theme customisations… hence I thought I would test here – and the behaviour is different (although still not as expected).

    This is a WP + BP website we’ve taken over responsibility for, and are upgrading (WP, BP, Customised BP Daily…[Read more]

      Please see https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4118. I think that this is a similar but unrelated issue.

      Please open a ticket on http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org explaining what you’ve explained here. Thanks.

    Yes I got the email notification right now. But. The items is waaaaaay down here on the page. And I don’t think the page auto-refreshes with ajax… so users will have to refresh regularly, which sucks. @johnjamesjacoby, @andy, @boonebgorges, or @djpaul

      mark, does this notify you immediately?

        Perhaps the ”message” feature serves as the ”chat”

          I was thinking about the FB live chat, which in FB doubles as messages as well. Im looking through the plugins to see if there is a chat. http://buddypress.org/extend/plugins/?page=9

        Yes it’s no use having a reply all the way down the page. It’s not visually highlighted either. I only know it’s there because I see it in my email. I think mentions should include responses to threads Im involved in. And I think mentions should dynamically update using ajax and change color to red if there is new activity. Maybe with the title…[Read more]

        @kvenner This is what we are looking for http://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-activity-stream-bump-to-top/ This plugin will “bump” an activity record to the top of the stream when an activity comment reply is made.

      We are gradually moving towards that in each iteration. It is still possible to do, but you need to write a WordPress plugin to do it.

      As a general note, please don’t mass the entire core team unless something is broken or on fire.

    @boonebgorges – belongs to ticket #3458 – I think as a super admin you’re able to see all my activities on my just-me. The issue is for example on the comment to ”Fee joined the group BuddyPress Testers” … ”If I post long comments…”

              Really? Ok, on another’s user activity page I found all the ”joined-group” activities on the groups tab. Maybe you find it here: http://testbp.org/members/wdfee/activity/groups/
              I found mine there in the middle of scrolling down the page.

              I really don’t understand this issue, on the other’s comments it works.

    @johnjamesjacoby @andy @boonebgorges Does the new buddypress theme scale down as easily as the Wordpress TwentyEleven Theme? (Looks great on any screen, computer, cellphone.) That would be sweet.

      Ray replied 9 months, 4 weeks ago

      I think it would look fine on an iPad (can’t verify though). Mobile devices, not so much.

      However there are a couple of theme devs working on child themes that would scale down well on mobile devices.

        BP Default isn’t a responsive theme. That would be cool though. :)

    Why are activity feed profile photos in different sizes for different types of updates (i.e. User just joined [with tiny photo]; User posted a activity comment [with medium-sized photo]; and User replied to a forum topic [with large photo]?

      This site runs the latest dev version of BuddyPress, and adding ability to use the WordPress Menu system is one of many enhancements. You’ll have to use BuddyPress trunk, http://svn.buddypress.org/trunk/, to get it for now. No guarantee that the dev version is stable and bug-free, but if you spot anything broken, do let us know
