Hi there, what is the error? I don’t specifically support BuddyBoss, as I understand it is in part a BuddyPress clone, so it may be fixable, but I’ve no intention of loading buddyboss on my test server.

Hi there, that link does not work

Hi there, Messaging control if only for messages, not for activities. It’s and interesting idea though.

I’ll take a look at the issue with the groups component later. I’m currently on holiday though, it might take a little while.

Hi there,

Although I don’t support BuddyBoss, I’ll take a look at this, however, right now I’m on holiday and may not be back for another week.

that’s great! I already have some ideas ?? For example, the ability to send each new follower a gift, perhaps a link to some special content? On that theme, the ability to schedule followers gifts on their birthday. This is related to BuddyPress Compliments, which I’m also looking to start supporting, but am thinking we may be able to integrate the two, or, replace more of BP Compliments features within Follow.

That would be, of course a longer term ideal, I think the first step is to update it to fix the deprecations. I’ve already done this.

The next job is to update all the printing/input functions to make sure the outputs and inputs are correctly sanitized and escaped.

Where shall we collaborate? I’m on Github and Slack

I am too, I’m both a developer and a publisher, and it was the publishing side of things that got me into WordPress and BuddyPress development. I wanted to be able to build sites that had the features I needed, and without significant cost. To be honest, I really struggle to charge for anything. I’m a bit of an open source purist. We seem to be a bit of a dying breed in the WordPress world. But right now, I have the time to grab all the plugins that have been abandoned and fix them up, and also turn them into a more cohesive bundle. For example, I’ve got fully working versions of BP Follow, BP Compliments, and around 70 other BP plugins. I think I’m going to be publishing new stuff like crazy over the next year. If you’d like to help, I’d love a beta tester, and also someone that can suggest additional features I may not have thought of.

Right now, for example, I’m working on a bunch of really good integrated projects. For example, a Registration Tools plugin that has honeypots, avatar upload on registration, improved styling, group join on registration, terms and conditions and privacy policy signups which actually record in the use meta the date and version of the policy that was agreed to. Another project I’m working on is a kind of ultimate privacy plugin, since many of the privacy plugins fail to provide a total privacy shield. As has been the way with WordPress recently, the majority of plugins deliberately remove key features so they can go behind a paywall. I’ve no time for that, why would I want to maintain two plugins? Obviously, I’m in a luxurious position of not needing to earn that much money currently.

That’s the error I got after I tried that

Thank you so much for getting back to me. I’ve added a bunch of security measures into the code, and sometimes that causes things to stop working. I did test it myself, obviously, but there’s nothing like user feedback confirming all is good.

Also, if there’s any other features you’d like, for this, or BuddyPress in general, let me know. I seem to have got a head of steam up on the programming front and have decided to fork any BP plugin that’s not been updated in 5 years or so, as although many still work, truth is, most that old have significant vulnerabilities, which are quite easily fixed. on top of that, I’ve a load of plugins that I’m working on for release, about 40 overall, but I’m looking to consolidate and integrate them, since, as you are probably aware, so many plugins, each with there own settings pages and ways of working tends to make BP overly complicated both for admin and users.

Hi Peter, the plugin has had a lot of updates recently, do you still have this problem?

This has now been fixed

This has now been fixed

Hi there, sorry you found an issue. Firstly, was the error on activation or when you tried a shortcode? If it’s a shortcode, which one? Also, what was the error?

Hi there, It’s happening on all my non-NG admin pages, so I think the JS is loading and looking for selectors that are not there, and giving the error.

Ah, cool, I did not think to look in the account page, I can see them now. I didn’t press bulk change though, just the one change – to update new images automatically.

Hi there, I changed the setting on all three sliders. I put one of the sliders on a page – https://thealicesyndrome.com/test-page-for-sliders. No change in behaviour.
