I am having similar/same problem when selecting the ‘Send Invites’ button. Sometimes it works as designed and then it won’t. I have noticed that the following occurs:
WORKS:
When ‘send invites’ works, the textbox with “Select people to invite from your friends list” WILL disappear after selecting a member to invite.
The path to the page is:
/groups/group-name/invite-anyone/
After submitting ‘Send Invites’ button. The path will momentarily change to:
/groups/group-name/invite-anyone/send
And then I get a successful green textbox and the path is back to:
/groups/group-name/invite-anyone/
———————————–
DOES NOT WORK:
When ‘send invites’ doesn’t work, the textbox with “Select people to invite from your friends list” WILL NOT disappear after selecting a member to invite.
The path to the page is:
/groups/group-name/invite-anyone/
After submitting ‘Send Invites’ button. The path will change to:
/groups/group-name/send (note /invite-anyone/ is now missing)
And the resulting message is displayed:
“Page not found.
We’re sorry, but we can’t find the page that you’re looking for. Perhaps searching will help.”
I can’t figure out what variable is changing to cause this behavior. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
WP Multi-site: 3.51
BP 1.7.1
Invite Anyone 1.0.20
I’ve activated IA both sitewide and only on the BP blog. Same problem either way.
After further inspection, while the ‘Select people to invite from you friends list’ text message to the right will sometimes stay after selecting a member, that does Not seem to have any impact on whether ‘Send Invites’ is successful or not.
The only clear difference is that once the request is submitted the failures occur when the request results in a path no longer in /invite-anyone/
So on failures I get /groups/group-name/send
Thanks for the detailed feedback, Mark.
I think I found the source of the bug. I’m going to release a version momentarily that contains what I think is a fix for the problem. When you’ve upgraded to the next version of IA, please post back here to let me know if it’s worked for you.
I have only successfully submitted invites since upgrading. Previously I would have had a ‘page not found’ by now so based on a limited number of invites, all appears to be good. Thank you Boone.
