    Hi John,
    Hope you are doing well.
    I am sorry for the delayed reply.

    Which file type are you trying to upload. Can you visit Dashboard->MediaPress->Settings->General and check which image file extensions are allowed?
    It is probably an issue with the allowed extensions list.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Yes, Please use poedit or similar tool that allows changing/creating localization without the need for installing it on your site.

    Hi Lawrence,
    Thank you for the reply.

    There is only one hardcoded instance which can not be localized, It is slug. That’s why we provide the option to change slug in settings.

    For all other changes, you will need to localize it. You can use a translation plugin or a localization tool such as poedit that does it one time.

    Regards

    Hi Lawrence,
    Thank you for your reply.

    We do not have any message button to send message to your circle. The message button being discussed here is the button on individual user card for sending DM to them.

    Is that button appearing/not appearing for you?

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Jerome,
    Thank you for your patience.

    I have investigated the issue thoroughly and the only solution is to avoid using wp-bigraphy/similar mapping and use the BuddyPress Xprofile field(create one named Bio).

    The problem is with BuddyPress and It will have impact on your search as well.

    When a user saves a field which is mapped to WordPress fields, BuddyPress does not have it in the xprofile field data.

    If you had a field in xprofile and you mapped, the old data will remain there and will never be updated. In case of mapped fields, It updates user meta.

    The problem with this approach is it is neither consistent, causes data redundancy/inconsistent state and issues with Profile Data search. It seems, when this feature was introduced(It has been in recent years), It did not go through thorough testing.

    I will suggest avoid using this field mapping as there are no visible benefit of mapping the field.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Brajesh Singh on in reply to: BuddyDev Friends Suggestions Pro “like/not like” #54969

    HI Alex,
    I am sorry for the delayed reply.

    I have been thinking a solution about it. There is a solution without BuddyPress Friends suggestions pro though. xprofile query are costly(slow), so I am not sure if we should do that or not.

    The approach is to first create a xprofile query builder or this field

    
    function bpfscustom_get_multiselect_field_query( $user_id, $field_id, $match_field_id, $compare ) {
    
    	$field_data = xprofile_get_field_data( $field_id, $user_id );
    
    	if ( empty( $field_data ) ) {
    		return array();
    	}
    
    	if ( ! is_array( $field_data ) ) {
    		return array(
    			array(
    				'field'   => $match_field_id,
    				'value'   => $field_data,
    				'compare' => $compare,
    			)
    		);
    	}
    
    	$query = array();
    	foreach ( $field_data as $datum ) {
    		$query[] = array(
    			'field'   => $match_field_id,
    			'value'   => $datum,
    			'compare' => $compare,
    		);
    	}
    
    	return $query;
    }
    
    

    and then use it in the bp-friend-suggestions-pro-functions.php near line 119

    
    
    		if ( $rule['field_id'] == ACTUAl_MULTI_SELECT_FIELD_ID ) {
    			$queries = bpfscustom_get_multiselect_field_query( $user_id, $rule['field_id'], $rule['match_field_id'], $compare );
    			if ( ! empty( $queries ) ) {
    				$xp_query = array_merge( $xp_query, $queries );
    			}
    continue;
    		}
    

    You should replace the ACTUAl_MULTI_SELECT_FIELD_ID with the numeric field id for the multi select.

    So, the lines in this file which looked like this’

    
    		$xp_query[] = array(
    			'field'   => $rule['match_field_id'],
    			'value'   => $value,
    			'compare' => $compare,
    		);
    

    will be

    
    
    		if ( $rule['field_id'] == ACTUAl_MULTI_SELECT_FIELD_ID ) {
    			$queries = bpfscustom_get_multiselect_field_query( $user_id, $rule['field_id'], $rule['match_field_id'], $compare );
    			if ( ! empty( $queries ) ) {
    				$xp_query = array_merge( $xp_query, $queries );
    			}
    			continue;
    		}
    
    		$xp_query[] = array(
    			'field'   => $rule['match_field_id'],
    			'value'   => $value,
    			'compare' => $compare,
    		);
    
    

    Hope that helps.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    I am sorry, I typed values instead of value in the suggested condition.

    Here is the correct code.

    
    if( is_array($value)) {
      $value = maybe_serialize( $value );
    }

    Please try it.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Jerome,
    Thank you for your patience.

    I am sorry, that is a bug. Please remove the code I supplied earlier(It was a mistake, I supplied code from profile data control and not moderator).

    The problem is happening because BuddyPress ignores the xprofile data and uses WordPress user meta data for these ignoring some of our actions. This happens when you use a mapped WordPress field(Biography, first name, last name).

    I am working on a solution, please expect a plugin update by 21st.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Alex,
    Please make sure you are using maybe_serialize and not maybe_unserialize. The former will always return a serialized string.
