In reply to: [BuddyPress Docs] "Add Files" not working@kdagnall you can test to make sure they disabled it by running this code
var_dump(getenv('WPE_HEARTBEAT_AUTOSAVE_ONLY'));If that returns “on” then whatever they changed didn’t work for the install you are testing.
If its definitely NOT “on” then view the source of the page and make sure that the heartbeat.js is being loaded, as well as bp-docs.js. If those aren’t loading you will definitely see some errors in your browser’s JS console.

In reply to: [BuddyPress Docs] "Add Files" not workingAfter many hours of hair pulling and tears when this issue cropped up in a client project, I came across the answer, and it’s ugly.
WPEngine has, at some point, started loading an action via their wpengine-common mu-plugin. They call this the “Heartbeat Throttle” which is a very nice way of saying “disable the WordPress Heartbeat API by default for everything except the post editor in the dashboard.”
There is a filter available to add dashboard pages to the list of allowed pages called ‘wpe_heartbeat_allowed_pages’ but it only applies to pages that might be set as the global $pagenow variable, so it’s useless for the front end in the context of sane workarounds.
The only way to completely disable it, is to have WPEngine toggle off the WPE_HEARTBEAT_AUTOSAVE_ONLY environmental var (yes, you read that correctly, an ENV var).
As a side note, this also breaks the BuddyPress activity heartbeat feature.
I have a ticket open with WPEngine asking where this “performance feature” is documented, because surely disabling a core WordPress API would be useful information for developers and customers alike.

In reply to: [BuddyPress Links] "Please fill in all of the required fields"@martyn_ the page fetching requires XML in order to parse the fetched web pages. I’m not sure if its a good idea to silently disable the feature because of a missing library, but I think I might add something to the plugin page that shows a warning if XML/DOM is missing
Thanks!
