Image not saving via frontend when using BuddyBoss Theme

[hypnotisttom]

The image is not showing up when using BuddyBoss Theme. BuddyBoss support claims they are just using the WordPress comments features. When using Twenty Seventeen, DCO works as expected. I do not see much different between comments.php in the BB theme and comments.php in Twenty Seventeen. Using Chrome Dev Tools, I see that the form content type is "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" when using BuddyBoss, instead of "multipart/form-data" when using Twenty Seventeen.

The upload form appears on the UI, but when submitting a file, even though the selector works, the file is not attached to the comment. If I go into the admin and attach the same file directly to the comment there, the image is visible in the frontend.

I am using DCO 1.3.1.

Any ideas?

Exactly the same behaviour over here. Did you find a solution?

Unfortunately I did not. BuddyBoss told me the news feed has this functionality, but as you know we are referring to the LearnDash pages. I disabled the DCO plugin, and I opened a BuddyBoss feature request. Perhaps you could ask their support desk to tag your issue into the same feature request as mine, and maybe that will help them prioritize it?

Okay, I will report this back to the buddyboss team.

I struggled long time with the same issue...
The probleme comes from AJAX submission which is implemented in the buddyboss theme, it doesn't manage about upload a file :(
(and this is why it's work in backend, as this is a "normal way" submitted form)
I found a quick fix by commenting this.ajax_comment(); around the line 27 of buddyboss-theme/assets/js/main.js

Need to check how to remove this function in my child theme, or to hope Buddyboss team makes AJAX as optional...

It's a late reply from the beginning of the thread, but hope it will help someone
