Popular Members Widget - Doesn't show all members

[allenpayne]

Hi,

I just updated to wp 3.5.1 and buddypress 1.7 and i have an unusual problem with the Members widget.

I currently have 3k+ members on my site and my top member has 400+ friends.

When i add the Members widget to the sidebar and click on Popular…it shows a list of member starting with the member with 96 friends.

For some reason it doesn’t show the top members (starting with the one with 400+ friends).

Any ideas?

*
I tried to replace the bp-core-widgets.php file with the one from the previous version, but it didn’t work.

Hm. Please try putting the following into your bp-custom.php file, and see what happens:

add_filter( 'bp_use_legacy_user_query', '__return_true' );

If that fixes it, it'll suggest that there's a bug in BP_User_Query.

Thanks for getting back to me Boone.

This fixed the problem.

Is this a good solution? Can i leave it like that?

[boonebgorges]

Yes, you can leave it like that, until this ticket has been marked as fixed and the fix has gone into a release version.

[allenpayne]

Ok, Boone. Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it.

[boonebgorges]

Thanks for reporting the issue! I may ask you to test any potential fixes.

Sure, Boone. Just let me know...

[merty]

This should fix it.

[AllenPayne]

Your patch works. Thank you @merty.

[merty]

You're welcome! Thanks for testing it!

[boonebgorges]

Patch looks great, thanks merty!

In 6996:

Convert total_friend_count to SIGNED before attempting to sort with it

This fixes issues in BP_User_Query where the 'popular' sort order was sorting
by friend count interpreted as a string (ie, alphabetically) instead of
numerically.

Fixes #4937

Props merty

Hi I'm using latest version 1.9.2, and this bugs seems still there. I tried the fix exposed with no luck.

Is a new ticket for this problem? (if so, some could point me to it?)

If there's no ticket I will create a new one.

Thanks in advance

CarlosRovira - Can you please give further details?

• Exactly what are you seeing, and what do you expect to be seeing? Please be specific about how to reproduce (like if it only happens when clicking Popular or Active or Newest in the Members widget, this is an important detail)
• Are you using the legacy BP user queries, as suggested here? ​https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4937#comment:1
• If not, does switching to legacy queries help? ​https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4937#comment:1

Thanks Boone for your quickly response:

The site where you can see the problem is: ​http://www.madeinflex.com

In the home near the final you can see "USUARIOS EN LA COMUNIDAD DE MADE IN FLEX"

This is the Member User BuddyPress Widget.

I have 36 people configured. I expect to see 32 people (people already in the community). And get up to 36 when have enough people to show.

But right now only shows 20. If I click "Activo" label it shows 32 people (is what is expected). And if I come back to "Nuevos", it show 32.

So the problem seems to be on the load of the plugin.

I don't use any custom code, just plugins, and this widget seems to be BP core widget, isn't it?

I'll try the links you comment to see If I can fix it

Thanks for the additional details, CarlosRovira. This appears to be a separate problem, related to the 'max' or 'per_page' parameter. Could you please open a separate ticket, describing what you describe above? And be sure to share the exact settings you set up when you created the widget at Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets. Thanks!
