bpf_read not working

Hi damland,

Sorry for the late reply.

I just tested this on an Apache server and it is working for me. What server are you using? nginx? lighttpd?

You might need to configure your server to properly grab $_GET variables.

What happens if you change ?bpf_read to ?bpf_read=1?

I’ve apache on ubuntu
same problem with ?bpf_read=1
my server can grab $_GET variables

Thank you

If you check this part of the code:
https://github.com/r-a-y/buddypress-followers/blob/1.2.x/_inc/bp-follow-notifications.php#L148

The notification should clear if bpf_read is set as a parameter in the URL.

The only other thing I can think of is that your theme is causing a conflict. Can you try this on the Twenty Twelve theme?

Hi, tested with Twenty Twelve theme and it works but I need to fix it for my theme, any advice please? Thank you

Hi damland,

I was able to duplicate your issue on the bp-default theme.

I’ve added a fix for v1.3 of the plugin, which is going to be released soon.

In the meantime for v1.2.1, after line 172 of /_inc/bp-follow-notifications.php:
https://github.com/r-a-y/buddypress-followers/blob/1.2.x/_inc/bp-follow-notifications.php#L172

Add this line:
add_action( 'bp_activity_screen_my_activity', 'bp_follow_notifications_mark_follower_profile_as_read' );

This should fix the problem.

Hi,
I haven’t tested yet, I’m waiting for v1.3 when it ll be available?
Thanks (y)

I would go with the one-line fix for now.

I’m thinking of around Christmas time for v1.3.

Hello r-a-y

any news about v1.3? Still waiting for it Thank you

please also note that the fix you have provided isnt working, I’ve added your code after line 172 of /_inc/bp-follow-notifications.php but didnt fix the problem
thank you

I’m incorporating changes from BuddyPress 2.2 into BP Follow so this is pushing back the release.

As for the mark notification problem on bp-default themes, I can’t duplicate it with the fix I listed above.

On your site, what is the default component when you land on a user’s page? Is it the user’s activity or the user’s profile data?

the user’s activity
