 * Hi,
 * I am using this plugin on a Buddypress theme. The Compliments tab shows up fine,
   but the button for members to click to add a compliment is missing.
 * Please can you tell me which code to include in my template, to display the Compliment
   button?
 * Thanks.

 * Hello there, button usually show up automatically in all bp compatible themes.
 * If your theme overrides buddypress template, then make sure you have the following
   code in your theme file
 * `do_action( 'bp_member_header_actions' );`
 * It can be found in the following location
 * > wp-content/themes/your_theme/buddypress/members/single/member-header.php
 * If you don’t see that file, then your theme uses default buddypress template 
   and it should work

 * Hi Viruthagiri – sorry for the delay.
 * My theme was overriding bp template, so the code you gave works perfectly.
 * Thanks so much! Great plugin.

 * Hi,
 * I updated the Compliments plugin and the button has gone missing again, even 
   though I have still got
 * `do_action( 'bp_member_header_actions' );`
 * in my theme file?

 * If your theme overrides buddypress member-header.php file and have not included
   bp_member_header_actions hook, then you should talk with your theme author about
   it.
 * Because mostly all bp plugins relies on that hook to add buttons.
 * We have not modified much in our latest update. So i don’t think the problem 
   comes from our plugin.

 * Thanks for the reply, but I haven’t changed my theme, and the code fix was working
   before the plugin update?

 * You will not see that button in your own profile. Because you can’t send compliment
   yourself.
