Minified assets not enqueued when in child theme

[pscolv]

I'm using my own buddypress.js and buddypress.css files within my child theme. Unfortunately, when trying to minify those, I noticed that the original file was still being enqueued. This behaviour differs from the bp-legacy folder, where the minified file is chosen by default.

When digging into the code, I noticed that the buddypress-functions.php indeed doesn't try and look for minified assets in child themes.

This can be fixed easily in the locate_asset_in_stack function. I already modified the code and tested accordingly (see attached patch). With this new code, either minified or un-minified child theme assets are loaded, depending which version exists.

Regards,

Pascal.

One remark though : when running the "ongoing" buddypress version from the SVN repository, I noticed that there are many issues related to js scripts loading (which occurred even without my buddypress-functions.php changes). I joined a snapshot of those here. Don't know for sure whether they are related to my install, but they don't seem to.

Hi @pscolv

Thanks for getting in contact. This looks like a good spot, and we'll have to take a look at this. Your patch is high quality, so with luck, we can just drop it in once we confirm the issue!
