    Thanks Brajesh! I don’t know how to code so that I can’t judge the plugin’s code. If I understand you correctly it wouldn’t be a good idea to even add the filter in the plugin itself? I understand that it’s not perfect to modify a plugin itself because of the upgradeability and all changes being wiped out after an update. But besides that problem could it cause any issues by applying the filter in the plugin itself?

    Thanks Brajesh for the info, I agree that it would probably be better to start fresh with a new more Facebook like reshare concept in case you decide to do it…

    Just coming back to you regarding a potential wp_upload_rename tutorial regarding the newer plugin mentioned above (https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-upload-rename/). Not a matter of urgency, only if you have some time now…

    No, I was just using the latest fork on the imath BP Reshare github. I am not a coder so I hope that Brajesh could update this plugin?

    Brajesh,
    Could you share your BP Reshare fork on github or here on your site? My BP Reshare version is still working more or less on my site but it’s very unstable. Every once in a while it wipes out all the reshare entries in the database. It looks like something in the code is not up to date anymore. I tried to contact imath but he’s probably working on newer stuff instead. I would be extremely happy if you were able to improve this plugin…

    Thanks for your reply. Yes, that’s in line of what I experienced. I was just under the wrong impression that the admin default setting would also cover the auto created wall galleries. I guess it depends a little on whether you’re creating more a twitter like community with everything public or a Facebook like community with everything set to friends only.

    My wall privacy for the post content just defaults to friends only so that the user is under the wrong impression that when he attaches some media that it also defaults to friends or whatever he chooses in the post selector. There is currently no indication for the user that the attached media has a different privacy. That’s why I want to avoid any complaints and set the default media not to be public but friends only.

    How can I change this in the code? It sounds like I just need to flip out a word. Is it in core/ajax/”mpp-ajax.php” line 438? When I change this to friends or friendsonly it doesn’t change the default wall gallery privacy?

    Thanks so much, did you check?
    Yes, global privacy settings would be awesome in the future…
