Bowe,
Any progress toward a new version?

For those who are interested, once I tamed the bad interactions between posts and the slider it is working pretty well pulling from our blog posts. I have, however, modded the CSS a little to make it a little easier to deal with

.flex-caption { padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom:0px;
background-image: url(‘/wp-content/themes/cbox-theme/assets/images/slides-bg30.png’);
}
.flex-viewport { background-color: black;
}

I’m attaching the more transparent background image

A nice bit of research on sliders/carousels’ usability and design

I resorted to the Display Posts Shortcode plugin.

[Dale MacDonald]

LOL It’s the other super-admins that freak out the most! :-O
I’ve discovered in this process that there are a couple of other plugins that still have if ( WP_DEBUG) statements lurking in them. While I really need to get this problem fixed my server has decided to wedge an httpd process every 12 hours or so and run away with the CPU so I have to get that tamed first.

OK I’ve poked around a bit indeed is_post_type_archive( bp_docs_get_post_type_name() ) returning false.
I’ve played a bit with wp-includes/query.php and I don’t see anything interesting if I put an else clause on

 if ( ! empty( $post_type_obj->has_archive ) )
$this->is_post_type_archive = true;  

so I’m not sure where above that we are running off the rails. Putting debug statements in parse-query() generates a whole lot of stuff and it frightens the users when it suddenly appears so I have to be judicious. Do you imagine a smarter place to trigger_error()?

Thanks,
Dale.

bp_docs_template_include() returns from the if ( ! bp_docs_is_docs_component() ) clause with $template = /home/femtechnet/public_html/wp-content/themes/cbox-theme/archive.php

It never gets to line 55

448 runs fine. the $posts_query looks like

"name":"","post_type":"bp_doc","create":"1","error":"","m":0,"p":0,"post_parent":"","subpost":"","subpost_id":"","attachment":"","attachment_id":0,"static":"","pagename":"","page_id":0,"second":"","minute":"","hour":"","day":0,"monthnum":0,"year":0,"w":0,"category_name":"","tag":"","cat":"","tag_id":"","author_name":"","feed":"","tb":"","paged":0,"comments_popup":"","meta_key":"","meta_value":"","preview":"","s":"","sentence":"","fields":"","menu_order":"","category__in":[],"category__not_in":[],"category__and":[],"post__in":[],"post__not_in":[],"tag__in":[],"tag__not_in":[],"tag__and":[],"tag_slug__in":[],"tag_slug__and":[],"post_parent__in":[],"post_parent__not_in":[]},"tax_query":{"queries":[],"relation":"AND"},"meta_query":false,"post_count":0,"current_post":-1,"in_the_loop":false,"comment_count":0,"current_comment":-1,"found_posts":0,"max_num_pages":0,"max_num_comment_pages":0,"is_single":false,"is_preview":false,"is_page":false,"is_archive":true,"is_date":false,"is_year":false,"is_month":

1.4.5

Permalinks reset. No help.

/docs works fine (though the add doc button there suffers the same fate).

I did see this in templatetags.php which smelled funny

	/**
         * Get the link to create a Doc
         *
         * @package BuddyPress_Docs
         * @since 1.2
         */
	function bp_docs_get_create_link() {
		return apply_filters( 'bp_docs_get_create_link', trailingslashit( bp_docs_get_archive_link() . BP_DOCS_CREATE_SLUG ) );
	}

is bp_docs_get_archive_link() right?

Thanks,
Dale.

Curiously, Lisa Brundage thinks the buttons on the group Docs page should result in URLs of the form
/groups/groupname/docs/create (which actually does create a new doc in the right place) where what is currently showing up is of the form /docs/create/?group=groupname

Does this ring any bells?

[Dale MacDonald]

Bump!

Any call to /docs/create whether raw or with a group name query results in a “You are browsing the archive for Posts.

Not Found
” page.

Any hints on where to look to debug this?

Thanks,
Dale.

Daniel,
I don’t think that’s super specific at all. That’s the same sort of functionality my users would like to see as well. Once they’ve wrapped their heads around the groups functionality then having “documents” or “attachments” or whatever one wants to call non-HTML content be first class objects in the CMS (even if not editable) is an obvious next step (or so says the clamor outside my office 🙂 )

More FWIW the access log entry says
64.79.125.74 – – [19/Aug/2013:13:41:10 -0400] “GET /wp-content/uploads/exports/cbox-theme/dynamic.js?ver=3.6 HTTP/1.1” 304 – “http://femtechnet.newschool.edu/docs/create/?group=commons-committee” “Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_4) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/28.0.1500.95 Safari/537.36”
And nothing appears in the error log

[Dale MacDonald]

A bit more info. This only occurs if one clicks on “Request membership” from the group page. If we click on “Request membership” from the Groups listing page it works fine.

For the case from the individual group page the server log shows
[Sun Jul 14 12:45:04 2013] [warn] mod_fcgid: stderr: PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare _bp_groupblogs_refetch() (previously declared in /home/femtechnet/public_html/wp-content/plugins/external-group-blogs/bp-groups-externalblogs.php:189) in /home/femtechnet/public_html/wp-content/plugins/external-group-blogs/bp-groups-externalblogs.php on line 188

Which seems odd (though somewhat prescient as we are on the verge of turning multisite on for that server)
Dale.
