Conflict with BuddyBoss Media Plugin

  • Bernhard,

    Thank you for making such a well-made plugin. It is cleanly put together and a pleasure to use. This is one that solves so many little problems. There isn’t another one like it of such good and quality.

    I’ve been having a small conflict (not a serious one) with the BuddyBoss Media plugin (https://www.buddyboss.com/product/buddyboss-media/). I’m reporting this both to you and the developers of that plugin to see if I can’t get some help in solving it. I don’t think it is a bug with your plugin, but a conflict between the two.

    The media plugin has a lightbox system that allows users to view photos enlarged. However, if a user has a picture enlarged when your plugin fires it’s ajax to refresh,the screen gets wiped blank.

    I’m wondering if there is a way to pause the ajax call in timezonecalculator based on certain conditions. I haven’t seen reports of other lightbox plugins being effected by it so I’m unsure what to do.

    My support request for the BuddyBoss media plugin can be found here: https://www.buddyboss.com/support-forums/topic/ajax-conflict-with-another-plugin/

    Hi Peter,

    Thanks for your glowing review, I’m happy that you like TimeZoneCalculator.

    Unfortunately there’s no default method to suspend TimeZoneCalculator’s Ajax refreshes. As workaround you could add a condition in js/refresh.js, function timezonecalculator_refresh(params, query_params) which checks for the existence of the lightbox (e.g. look for some element with jQuery).

    if (!jQuery('#elemId').length) {
  jQuery.ajax ...
}

    As you have mentioned, other lightboxes work. – I personally use the ThickBox version which is bundled with WordPress. – Please keep me updated in case you get a pointer by the guys of BuddyBoss Media.

    Hope that helps.

    My Best,
    Berny
