error when adding a media in buddypress group activity

Hi,

You can please help me to understand the issue more clearly by sharing some visual of the issue?

I tried to replicate the issue at my end but was unable to reproduce it. Able to upload media with JPEG, PNG, JPG file formats in BuddyPress group activity feed without any error.

It could be a conflict with a third party plugin/theme. Please deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress, rtMedia and install and activate any default WordPress theme. Please check if you still face the same issue.

Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Regards,
Pooja

Hi Pooja

thanks for your reply.

I’m using RT media on a buddypress instance, using Kleo theme.

When i try to add a media in an group’s activity, the file seems to be right uploaded (cf capture 1 : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Qsx66lTAAV48PM2InYhizBgSIC8l3hkt/view?usp=sharing), but then i’ve an error message with the automatic publishing (cf capture 2 : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZmM_quKibzfm0ecHhghlnRO0zBJoeZSr/view?usp=sharing)

In english, the error message is : “You need to define a type parameter to insert activity.” and it seems to be a buddypress error message.

The media are well present in the media section of the group, the problem seems to be with the group’s activity publishing.

I’ve try to unable my theme and other plugins, i d’ont have an error message but the activities are not publishing too.

all WordPress, Buddypress, Theme and Plugins are up to date.

How to fix that ?

Hi,

I tried to reproduce the issue with Kelo theme but couldn’t reproduce it. Able to upload media in group activity page without any error.

And the error message which you shared is from BuddyPress itself. You can refer the following link for more details – https://buddypress.org/support/topic/you-need-to-define-a-type-parameter-to-insert-activity/
