 * hello,
 * first of all thank you for this plugin. i love it because its easy to understand
   and does exactly what i want but
 * since i m using the buddyboss theme it is not possible, to create places. i can
   enter descreption and adress and after submitting the details it tells me “nothing
   found”
 * i m using the latest versions of bp and wordpress… maybe you have any idea…
 * oh and another thing. could it be possible to put the localication marker on 
   the activity field to another place or maybe ad in a sidebar with the shortcode
   widget? because at the moment i have to decide between activity picture upload
   or geomarker
 * thanks for your help
 * nelly

 * Hello thanks for your feedback unfortunately BuddyBoss is a premium theme, so
   unless his author send me a copy of it, i cannot figure out what’s going wrong
   with the plugin.
    BP checkins should work with most WordPress theme as it benefits
   from the BuddyPress theme compat feature. It also includes a fallback for BP 
   default theme / child themes. And if a standalone BuddyPress theme is using add_theme_support(‘
   buddypress’) it should also work.
 * What you describe is although weird as it means the ajax Query string is not 
   taking in account the place filter, it doesn’t seem to be a template issue, but
   a bp_ajax_querystring one. Have you installed a new plugin that is playing with
   activity ?
 * Sorry i can’t help you more on this one, but it’s hard for me to buy every premium
   theme to check them 🙁

 * update:
 * i just set up a testversion on the same server with exactly the same plugins 
   and the same theme and bp checkins worked perfect.
 * what do i have to do to remove checkins completely and set it up again. which
   database tables and entries can be deleted?

 * another update… i noticed that the custom fields for places adresses aso are 
   not created. i did it manually but that also didnt work. then i deleted every
   checkin entry in the database and reinstalled the plugin. there i got this message
 * Das Plugin verursachte eine Fehlermeldung 696 Zeichen unerwartete Ausgabe während
   der Aktivierung. Sollte du Fehlermeldungen wie “headers already sent”, Probleme
   mit der Syndizierung der Feeds oder andere Fehler erhalten, versuche das Plugin
   zu deaktivieren oder zu löschen.
 * as mentioned above the plugin is working perfect on my test page with exactly
   the same theme and plugins….

 * Ok, i’ll check the error on activation (just translated the german message you
   paste above).
 * To remove bp-checkins, simply deactivate it then remove it using the WordPress
   link, you’ll have a message informing you that the plugin will try to remove 
   its datas.
 * BP Checkins only creates a table in order to add a meta field capability to categories.
   Otherwise it uses custom post types and custom taxonomies.
 * Hope you’ll find the key to the trouble.

 * Hi, did you manage to solve this. I’m using the same theme and having the same
   trouble.
