Media disappears in the Wire

Hello there @minto,
I’m afraid that these 2 plugins are not 100% compatible… and due to their similar nature you might have to custom-code a solution for that. I looked for a solution but coding is not one of my strongest points so I couldn’t find where exactly the issue lies.

thanks anyway, aristath!

i got it!

if anyone is having that same issue, insert one line in class-bpfb-binder.php (around line 273)

if ($bpfb_code) {
			$content = @$_POST['content'] . "\n" . $bpfb_code;

			$content = "@" . bp_get_displayed_user_username() . " " . $_POST['content'] . "\n" . $bpfb_code;

			$content = apply_filters('bp_activity_post_update_content', $content);

edit:
due to issues on the own profile (on an update i would mention myself), there needs to be the if/else around:

if ($bpfb_code) {
			$content = @$_POST['content'] . "\n" . $bpfb_code;

if (!bp_is_home() && bp_is_member())
$content = "@" . bp_get_displayed_user_username() . " " . $_POST['content'] . "\n" . $bpfb_code;
 else
 $content = $_POST['content'] . "\n" . $bpfb_code;

			$content = apply_filters('bp_activity_post_update_content', $content);

so thats it^^

Hello there @minto!

Thank you for letting us know and sharing this info!
I’m sure other users will find that useful as well!

hi there minto i am just about to add this feature from brajesh,s tutorial too but before i do it im a little confused as to the problem you solved? does this problem only arrive when using activity plus plugin? if so where which code do i add from above to the class-bpfb-binder.php? and where is this file located? and what line should i put it after exactly? thx

hi mc!

class-bpfb-binder is located in wp-content/plugins/buddypress-activity-plus/lib/

for me, brajeshs hack worked fine so far (beside one single issue of doubleposting, which passed after sparing his very first modification line out). i had the entrybox on the single-profile, and it worked just fine for any written comments. but with activity-plus it was the case, that all mediapostings just showed up until the next refresh. anyway it was correctly posted (i.e. with videopreview) on the main-activity-stream.

so get your class-bpfb-binder.php in that location, then go to line 271 forward. in the first example above was added this “$content = “@” . bp_get_displayed_user_username”… forget this line, as seen in example 2, and add instead:

if (!bp_is_home() && bp_is_member())
$content = “@” . bp_get_displayed_user_username() . ” ” . $_POST[‘content’] . “\n” . $bpfb_code;
else
$content = $_POST[‘content’] . “\n” . $bpfb_code;

works on 3.5.1/1.7.2

hope that helps ??

Thanks for posting and clarifying!
