    Hi,

    I think the Poke Button would have more funny effect if there is an image which could be integrated inside the Poke Button.

    Would that be possible to do?

    Thanks & Regards,
    Daniel

    Hi Daniel,
    Please feel free to use css to add icon or use image. You should be able to do that.

    Hi there.

    I have just installed the poke plugin and changed – bp-poke/languages/bp-poke-en_US.po – from poke to send a smile and now I would really like to change the – bpdev_poke_me_button, to something else. Maybe a image or Icon.

    But I’m not really a css expert or a coding genius. So I would really appreciate it, if you could tell me, how to link a image/icon instead of and thereby change the poke-button.

    Best Regards Carsten.

    Hi Carsten,

    I have used Font Awesome Icons from here http://waramo.co.jp/fa/

    I then used these Icons like this as CSS:

    locate the CSS Selector {
   content: "\f000";
color: blue;
font-family: 'dashicons';
position: relative;
top: 2px;
}

    Just to give you an idea.

    Hope it helps.

    Regards
    Daniel

    Hi Daniel.

    Thanks for replying and sharing.
    I had actually not thought about using the css selector. But I can see that is very handy and I think I’ll upgrade my knowledge a bit. 🙂

    You can also find okay Icons on this link: https://developer.wordpress.org/resource/dashicons/#heart

    Regarding the CSS…

    I can move the button:
    #item-buttons > div.generic-button.poke-button {
    position: relative;
    top: 25px;
    }
    —————————————————————-
    I can remove the button:
    #item-buttons > div.generic-button.poke-button {
    display: none;
    }
    —————————————————————-
    But I cannot style it:
    #item-buttons > div.generic-button.poke-button {
    content: “\f004”;
    color: red;
    font-family: ‘dashicons’;
    position: relative;
    top: 0px;
    }

    Do you have a solution?

    There is also a another button – a.poke-user-button. But I have tried both!

    Best regards Carsten.

    Hi Carsten,

    I was able to style all the buttons with the CSS I have provided. You might should check to try another CSS selector (one above or so). Perhaps it is also related to your theme or try again with the “important” tag for each line:

    color: red ! important;

    Good luck!

    Regards
    Daniel

    I have tried both, but nothing works on my theme. So I think you’re right. Regarding my theme! They have a plugin, that merge with the other plugins. So I guess, I’ll have to live with the Poke button 🙂
    Because I cannot remove these plugins. They are required by my theme.

    But I just discovered a new issue. When some users poke/smile back. Instead of showing the users name in the linkaddress, it shown this link – https://my-site/members/admin/activity/pokes/?poke_action=poke_back&user_id=94&_wpnonce=0e4726f624 and this message – There has been a critical error on your website. Learn more about debugging in WordPress.

    When I click the back button in google. It returns and I get this message – You have send a smile back to Sus.
    The strange thing about this is! That it is a few users, that are affected. Included the admin.

    No new registered users are affected!!

    Do you have any idea, what causes the issue?

    Best regards Carsten.

    Hi Daniel.

    I just wanted to tell you. That I have fixed the poke button Issue.

    Here is the CSS:

    #buddypress:not(.youzer) div.action a.poke-user-button:before {
    content: “\2764” !important;
    color: #EF5B85 !important;
    position: relative !important;
    top: 2px !important;
    font-size: 0px !important;
    font-weight: 900 !important;
    }

    Best regards Carsten.
