BuddyPress 1.5 – Beta 3

August 30, 2011 in News

Available today for developer testing is BuddyPress 1.5 Beta 3. We’re keeping our momentum going and squashed enough bugs in Beta 2 that we want to give it another trip around the block to make sure it’s solid.

If you are a BuddyPress plugin author, please take the time to test your plugins against the latest code and let us know if something isn’t working quite right. We have an extensive change-log for 1.5 and we want everyone to transition from 1.2 as painlessly as possible.

Stop me if you’ve heard this one… Please don’t run BuddyPress Beta software on your live production site. We know there will be quirks and we are keeping up with your bug reports as they come in. Install BuddyPress 1.5 on a local installation or a test site, and let us know if you find anything that isn’t working the way it should. The end of August is upon us, and we’re ramping up for a release in the coming days.

You can download BuddyPress 1.5 Beta 3 today, from the bottom of our Trac page.

BuddyPress 1.5 – Beta 2

August 4, 2011 in News

Just 5 days after 1.5 Beta 1, up for grabs today for all you early adopters and plugin and theme developers is BuddyPress 1.5 Beta 2. It fixes a few bugs that cropped up early in Beta 1, and we want everyone to test with the newest code available.

If you are a BuddyPress plugin author, now is your time to help us help you, and check out all the work that’s gone into making the next version of BuddyPress faster, more efficient, more secure, and easier to code against.

As always, please DO NOT run BuddyPress Beta software on your live production site. There are going to be quirks with existing plugins, and we will be updating code rapidly as bug reports come in. Install BuddyPress 1.5 on a local installation or a test site, and let us know if you find anything that isn’t working the way it should. We are hoping the beta period will only last a few weeks, with a release in August.

Huge thanks to all of our testers!
