does not work with Buddypress

@redknite – We are aware of this issue and will be addressing it as soon as we can but do not have a working solution yet. Thanks for letting us know.

I also have a similar problem. Except that deactivating the plugin hasn’t restored my ability to edit profiles. In order to try to fix this problem, I dumped my entire site and rebuilt everything from the ground up. As soon as I installed NextGen, the problem reappeared and now I can’t get it to go away. I really don’t want to start over again, but…

After re-installing NextGen Gallery this weekend, I can’t edit User Profiles. If a user clicks on Edit Profile they are either redirected to a Group page with no content or I get a 404 error. I have tried installing the Gallery Plugin and this doesn’t restore the correct link. Based on what I saw in posts at Buddypress.org I’ve gone into my SQL db and looked at the groups table, but both Group 1 and 2 exist so that fix doesn’t seem to be my issue.

I’m using the latest version of WP, BP, bbP, and plugins.

@esmi – Thanks!

@msegroves – Aside from @esmi’s recommendation, the issue you are describing appears to be much different from the OP and it would be better to keep it separated in its own topic.

is there a work around possible for now?

Interested in a fix for this as well.

@redknite – The following will be included in future releases of NextGEN Gallery:

add_filter( 'bp_do_redirect_canonical', ‘__return_false' );

You should be able to add this to your functions.php theme template file.

I have the same problem as redknife. Edit profile opens a blank group page. I added the filter and it crashed the site.
Can photocrati advise when update will be posted to fix this?

@esmi – Thanks!

All – Please note, there appears to be a “smart” quote in the code above, although I strongly suspect it will *not* crash any site it may still cause issues all the same. Please see below for a more correctly written statement:

add_filter( 'bp_do_redirect_canonical', '__return_false' );

Thanks!

Thanks for your response @esmi
I am not highly experienced with code, but I can see no difference in you most recent post and the previous statement.

I hope to resolve as Nextgen gallery meets my needs but I cannot roll out this site with the bug. Can you issue an updated version – I’m sure there are many Buddypress users with the same issue.
Thanks!

@bobselby – As noted, it would still be best for you to start your own topic.

Also, that specific bit of code will be included in future versions of NextGEN Gallery … adding it manually to your theme is just a temporary work-around.

Hello same problem here. If the nextgen gallery de-activated the link to the profile of user works fine, if enable i have a redirect to a forum topic.

The workaround add_filter( 'bp_do_redirect_canonical', '__return_false' ); not work by my site.

But, the problem it′s not by all profiles. /mitglieder/mod2day work, /mitglieder/andygutt not.

@baxterbln – Please start your own topic for your specific instance of the issue you are seeing. (See https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Forum_Welcome#Where_To_Post)

Hi, i’ve got this error when I try to enter in a group. The site redirect me to forum.

I’ve got use the statment above without resolve the problem. I found a solution for Edit Profile (don’t work before) but nothing with Groups.

When i deactivate NextGEN Gallery, everything works fine.

Sample:
With NextGEN activate, click on this link https://www.gdrzine.com/groups/savage-worlds/ redirect me to https://www.gdrzine.com/groups/savage-worlds/forum

With NextGEN deactivate, click on this link https://www.gdrzine.com/groups/savage-worlds/ I’m going to correct group page

Can you help me to resolve this problem?
