    Hi Simon,
    Thank you for posting.

    1. We are not using WordPress media folder architecture completely. We are only using the WordPress base uploads directory. After that, Here is the terminology we use to save media

    uploads[WordPress Base Uploads Directory]
    –mediapress[MediaPress base directory]
    —-members[User Uploads]
    ——user_id(actual value, the user whose media will be stored)
    ——–gallery_id[Actual media of all the gallery is stored here]

    So, if you want to see all the media of user id 3, you will go to uploads/mediapress/members/3 and see all the gallery as folder there.

    The thing is MediaPress storage architecture is pluggable and you can create your own storage manager by extending MPP_Storage_Manager class.

    https://github.com/buddydev/mediapress/blob/master/core/storage/class-mpp-storage-manager.php

    Here is actual implementation for local storage which is used in MediaPress by default.
    https://github.com/buddydev/mediapress/blob/master/core/storage/class-mpp-local-storage.php

    And here is how to plug it in

    https://github.com/buddydev/mediapress/blob/master/mpp-init.php#L153

    Once you do that, you can select it from the MediaPress settings.

    The goal of MediaPress storage manager is to allow any kind of storage strategy to be used.

    I hope that clears your first two points.

    Everything goes to post meta as it provides a uniform and easy to use flexible key/value store. It is not going to hurt much(unless you are searching) as post meta is bulk cached(in loops) and individual access do not trigger database queries.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Andrew,
    Thank you.

    We will need to modify the css which is easy. I need the selector for the above section. Can you please point me to the correct css selector or link me to a user profile(I can take the css selector from there).

    I will post the code then.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Simon,
    Please wait for it. He is about to complete it and It should be available by late today or latest tomorrow.

    For the time being, Please put this code in your bp-custom.php to enable multi rating.

    
    
    function buddydev_custom_use_multi_rating() {
    	if ( function_exists( 'mr_filter_the_content' ) ) {
    		echo mr_filter_the_content('');
    	}
    }
    add_action( 'mpp_after_single_media_content', 'buddydev_custom_use_multi_rating' );
    
    

    And in the multi rating setting, Please enable it for media. Now, You can visit single media page and rate.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Todd,
    Thank you for the reply.

    I am a little bit confused now. I will explain how the MediaPress Works.

    1. MediaPress organizes Media(photo, video etc) to Galleries( consider it like folder)
    2. When you upload something from activity, It goes to wall Gallery. It can either go to your profile wall gallery or group wall gallery depending on the activity is a normal update or group update.

    3. Yes, They are automatically crated. Please make sure you have your settings updated by visiting Dashboard->MediaPress->Settings

    4. I am not sure what do you mean y gallery within a group page, can you please help me understand that?

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi,
    Thank you for the post.
    Please check your purchase again. You license expired on April 30th and that’s why you haven’t been able to download. I have sent a copy by the mail for now.

    To avoid any issue in future, Please make sure to upgrade your license whenever you feel comfortable.

    Thank you

    Hi Tony,
    Hope you are doing well.
    I have updated the MediaPress plugin and have made the use of shortcode better.

    Now, There is no need for pre existing gallery or gallery selection. We can hint MediaPress to use specific galleries when user tries to upload via shortcode. It have become much better now.

    Can you please tell me if we should add the uploaded media to user wall gallery on upload or do you plan to have sitewide galleries?

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Christian,
    I have pushed an update for MediaPress. Since your site has some custom changes with MediaPress, please do not upgrade for now.

    I will ask Ravi to get in touch with you and assist you in upgrading. Once the upgrade is complete, you won’t have this issue in future again.

    I am not sure how do I help you with the old activities though. And I am sorry but I am not able to assist on NFSW sites.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Brajesh Singh on in reply to: [Resolved] Move BuddyPress Tab #4808

    Hi Dandy,
    thank you for posting. It is a little bit complicated.

    You need to remove the nav item and then re register. Also, in most of the case, you will have to rewrite the screen handler for the page. I will advise avoiding it unless it is absolute necessary for your site.

    If you need only a few tabs, I will be happy to provide specific code.

    thank you
    Brajesh
