    Hi, latest version of wordpress and buddypress and bbforum.

    When uploading into the groups news stream anyone can upload an image, anyone can upload a video and anyone can upload a link..

    HOWEVER

    Only admin can use the 4th button to upload a document.

    So the issue must be with Activity plus.

    Any idea what could only effect this one type of upload?

    No error, just click upload, it does the percentage and then “add documents” does nothing, you click on it and it dissapears entirely with no message and no update on group.

    Here is a list of active plugins:

    BP Display Name
    BP Groupblog
    BP Group Documents
    BP Group Management
    BuddyPress
    BuddyPress Activity Plus
    BuddyPress Avatar Bubble
    BuddyPress Docs
    BuddyPress Edit Activity Stream
    BuddyPress Live Notification
    BuddyPress Restrict Group Creation
    BuddyPress Restrict Messages
    BuddyPress Security Check
    Buddypress Sitewide activity widget
    Buddypress Social
    BuddyPress Wall
    Free Social Slider by ARScode
    Mass Messaging in Buddypress
    My Groups Widget
    Network Mass Email
    Post Indexer
    Recent Global Posts Widget
    Simple HTML Slider
    Status Lite
    Usernoise
    Widget Logic
    WPMU DEV Dashboard

    Thanks

    Hi,

    you need change the line $group = new BP_Groups_Group((int)@$_POST[‘group_id’]); to $group = new BP_Groups_Group((int)@$_POST[‘group_id’],array(‘populate_extras’=>true)); in wp-content/plugins/buddypress-activity-plus/lib/bpfb_group_documents.php
    with this, the members can upload documents, but the activity loop don’t show this, only show the admin’s upload documents activity. I still don’t know how to fix this.

    I hope this can help you.

    regards.

    Hi @rhysbonney, thanks for posting about this and I’m very sorry for the severe delay here. You can set the upload settings for each Group, allowing all members or just admins and mods to upload.

    Here’s a screenshot showing that setting when creating a Group:

    Activity Plus works with that setting and general Group member uploads should be possible when setting the upload permissions as such.

    We’ll keep a keen eye on this topic so just let us know if you notice any issues with that. 🙂

    Cheers,
    David
