    Trying out a new plugin I wrote to bypass local storage for avatar uploads. If you upload an avatar on this site you’ll notice it’s all served from Amazon S3. This should fix the issue of not supporting user and group avatar uploads on BuddyPress.org due to the multi-server setup.

      Only supports JPG files right now, I’m fixing this.

        I got a success message with a JPG, but blank images at cropping step. Tried uploading from multiple browsers. I’ll try again in a bit.

          Give it another shot now and see if it works.

            Good to go. Crop area was large (466px x 466px) but it works great.

              The actual selection box, or the image itself?

                Selection box was large. Preview box was normal. Here’s a full-size screenshot – http://davidtcarson.com/cdn-crop-preview.jpg

                My original image was 150×150 JPG.

      Just changed my Avatar – upload worked fine. I had to refresh after upload and the reply box still shows my old avatar. Maybe just an issue of caching?

      • Profile picture of Peatling Andy

        Yes there’s a caching issue right now, but a hard refresh will fix it.

          @andy – could we ditch bbpress as mentioned here (http://buddypress.org/forums/topic/forums-based-on-activity-items-instead-of-bbpress). Activity-Stream is so much more intuitive, it just needs an title option.

          • Profile picture of Peatling Andy
            Simon replied 2 years, 1 month ago

            No don’t ditch the forums.

            Instead I would want an option to disable the Activity stream (except for profile status messages) and only keep the forums active.

              I think this is all strongly dependent on how the theme brings things together. Having a good visual separation between the two components is where the merit lies in having both of them.

              On many sites, the forum is the center of the website, and the users’ activity is a bit of an afterthought. I think because BuddyPress puts the activity at the…[Read more]

              @andy @simon2 – i was more thinking of keeping the forums (for detailed discussions) but rebuild them with the technology of the activity stream. In this way Forums would benefit from regular developments like ”Buddypress Like”, ”BP-Albums” ect. And we could directly reply from within the activity streams!

              • Profile picture of Peatling Andy
                Simon replied 2 years, 1 month ago

                Yes that could be a good idea. At the moment I think its a bit confusing and annoying that if I, in the activity stream, reply to a comment made in a forum topic it won’t be displayed inside that topic.

                Ray replied 2 years, 1 month ago

                It’s an interesting idea, but you’d need some way to distinguish between a forum activity stream item and a regular activity stream item. Something could be done with activitymeta and a custom template… worth investigating.

      Andy,

      I am familiar with the plug-in but I would like to suggest that you consider the Facebook Connect integration to be part of the core functionality and not as a plug-in.

      Something like here: http://www.jomsocial.com/community.html
