Ajax doesn't care of bp_core_fetch_avatar

[SGr33n]

Hi :)

So, if you have a plugin that manipulates avatar via bp_core_fetch_avatar, everything is ok, of course, but if you post a new status, then ajax will show the new update without pass the avatar from bp_core_fetch_avatar, and it will display the default one.

Of course if you reload manually the page, the avatar will be the correct one (passed through bp_core_fetch_avatar).

Which plugin are you using that introduces this bug?

Sorry DjPaul, I didn't recive the email notification for the new reply.

The plugin is coded by me, is something like this:

	public function fb_avatar( $avatar, $id_or_email, $size, $default, 

		return '<img alt="' . esc_attr( $alt ) . '" src="https://graph.facebook.com/' . $fb_uid . '/picture" class="avatar avatar-' . $size . ' photo" height="' . $size . '" width="' . $size . '" />';
	}
add_filter( 'bp_core_fetch_avatar', array( $this, 'fb_avatar' ), 9, 4 );

It works pretty good, except for the ajax updates.

Can you give more details about the page where the AJAX request is originating? This could possibly have something to do with the "displayed user" or something like that. The AJAX issues are happening on /activity/? Elsewhere as well? How about /members/yourname/activity/?

It's happening on every activity page.

Thanks for the additional info. The basic filter is working properly over AJAX in my tests.

My guess is that something is preventing your class, or your add_filter() call, from being called in time in the case of AJAX requests. For example, you might only be loading the class when ! is_admin(), but is_admin() will return true during an AJAX request. Likewise, some hooks (like 'wp_head') will not fire during AJAX requests, so if you're hooked to them, that's the source of the issue.

Maybe this'll point you in the right direction. If not, perhaps you can post more of your code - in particular, the code you're using to instantiate your class, along with the method that contains your add_filter() call - and we can help.

I called it if ( ! is_admin() ) so that's why it's not working. Thanks :)

Then I would ask you another question about a function I'm writing that I cannot make it work with BuddyPress enabled, can I? where to write you about it?

Good guess on my part :)

Your best bet is to post it to ​https://buddypress.org/support, and optionally you can ping me with @boonebgorges.

Ok, thanks :)
