Hi,

About “where are the upload size limits being pulled from”, good catch: thanks a lot for your report. I’ll work on improving this part asap.

You can follow my progress here: https://github.com/buddypress/bp-attachments/issues/66

About the message, I will make it easier to remove it using the BP Template Hierarchy, see: https://github.com/buddypress/bp-attachments/issues/67 to follow progress about it.

Hi Earl_D,

Thanks for your feedback. Good point about the dropdown of the Activity directory post form. For version 1.0.0, Groups support is not on our roadmap. But as it’s possible to attach a media to an activity when a group is selected into dropdown of the Activity directory post form we should be consistent and make it also available inside a group’s activity page.

I’ll look at it asap to see if I can include this into 1.0.0 (scheduled for tomorrow).

Hi thanks for your report.

Can you try to rename your MP4 file so that the file extension is in lowercase like mp4?

I believe we’re being too strict and uppercase can be an issue. I’ll fix this asap.

I’m not being sarcastic, I’m not English so I guess I made a mistake when translating. What I wanted to say is we use a capital B and a capital P to write BuddyPress, just like we use a capital W and a capital P to write WordPress.

I understood your point, we’re doing our best to improve BuddyPress and its Add-ons and are fully open to code contribution.

Ok got it.

Ok, just like WordPress, we write BuddyPress. Thanks for sharing your concern about how should behave the plugin.

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback. Good catch.

This media tab should only be available for the logged in user. Administrator can moderate all Members’ Media Libraries from the WordPress Admin Media submenu.

You can follow progress about it here: https://github.com/buddypress/bp-attachments/issues/62

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback, I believe people will have various opinions about it. So I’d say we should use the last choice the user made about this display mode using the browser’s local storage.

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback. The plugin doesn’t use Ajax. It uses JavaScript (mainly ReactJS) and REST API endpoints.

For this first version, the plugin provides a menu to reach a member’s Media Library. If I can see an interest to list a member’s public media, I’m not sure the Member’s Media Library should be available for someone else than the owner of it. Having a new tab using what’s in place for the community media directory seems safer to me.

I’d be very interested to see a Pull Request about it here: https://github.com/buddypress/bp-attachments

Hi,

Thanks for your report. I’m going to look at it. You can follow progress about it here: https://github.com/buddypress/bp-attachments/issues/60

Hi,

Thanks again for repeating you don’t like the way this plugin is conceived. As it’s a general feedback without any issue reported. I’m marking this as resolved: I clearly got your feedback the first time.

FWIW the plugin is using a DB table when it needs to track public media and display them into the Community Media directory.

Hi @user4forum,

Thanks a lot for your tests & for your report. Let’s put things in the right order ??.

Plugin does not integrate with other BP Plugins

The goal of the BP Rewrites plugin is to inform which plugins will have to change the way they are extending BuddyPress. So the fact you’re getting these notices (most are not errors) is a very good thing. It means you know that when BuddyPress 12.0 will be released, as it should merge the BP Rewrites plugin, all the authors of the plugins you listed need to work to be compatible with the next BuddyPress major release.

As unfortunately BP Rewrites has not been tested enough by plugin authors, we will build a specific plugin to keep you use them. No worries.

That being said, I’ll check all notices, it’s a very important contribution, you just did, thanks again??

Hi @frvncesko

Thanks a lot for sharing your review. About design, I must say that’s not my cup of tea, but if you have ideas about how we can improve it to make it look more “up to date”, I’ll be very happy to help these be available into the plugin’s templates/layouts. Don’t hesitate to share your detailed thoughts opening a ticket on our Trac environment.

I’d like to have more inputs when you say “core functions are below average”, what do you mean? Are you talking about bundled features or about something more relative to code used in functions of the Core component? Could you elaborate a bit?

About the “all in” approach, this is something we actually wonder about inside the development team. Personally I’m in favor of reducing the plugin size as much as we can to only keep very basic features in Core and move other features (like the one we are hardly working on for community media) into Add-on plugins. I believe to best suit anyone needs, the more granular approach we take, the best it is. The idea is to make these add-ons easily installable thanks to the “BuddyPress Add-ons” tab we added to the Plugins/add Administration screen. IMHO, this approach could also benefit to third party plugin authors as some of them don’t see with a good eye us to include features they may have been building businesses on. Users would keep the choice to use BuddyPress team maintained plugins or third party plugins.

this plugin has been built only to make you pay for everything and make everything super complex

frvncesko

I strongly disagree with your statement. I know we all, inside the BuddyPress core team, care about being good citizens of the open source as well as make things as easy as we can for theme/plugin authors and end users. The fact some features are only available thanks to business organizations is not something we are favoring in any way.

Hi @exstheme

Thanks a lot for your review, this one was my mistake I believe it occurred only in BP 10.5.0 and has been fixed a couple of days after our support topic alerted me in BP 10.6.0. If it’s not the case for you don’t hesitate to ping me here or in our WordPress Slack’s channel.

Hi @giannis4 thanks a lot for your review, kind words for us and advice ????
