BuddyPress 1.0.3 is now available for download.
This version fixes compatibility issues with WordPress MU 2.8.1. Due to major changes in this version of WordPress the updates to BuddyPress are very specific, therefore WordPress MU 2.8.1 is required for BuddyPress 1.0.3 and higher. Please upgrade your version of WordPress MU before upgrading BuddyPress.
There are now complete upgrade instructions, so please follow these step-by-step when upgrading BuddyPress.
Once you have upgraded to the latest, you will need to re-add your BuddyPress widgets. The widgets have been completely rebuilt with the new widget API. This is a one time step only.
As always, please backup before upgrading anything.
I detailed everything about my issues on this forum post:

My problem is solved! And bp 1.0.3 is running better than 1.0.2 now that I have it all sussed out.
Many thanks for the great work!
Like others, I used the auto plugin upgrade feature (found in my Buddypress admin panel) to upgrade to Buddypress 1.0.3 without knowing I had to disable my other buddypress plugins or upgrading WPMU (which was on 2.7.2) to the current 2.8.3.
I am currently receiving the following error: Fatal error: Class bp_core_welcome_widget: Cannot inherit from undefined class wp_widget in /nfs/c03/h03/mnt/53593/domains/greechi.com/html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-widgets.php on line 14
I have now upgraded WPMU to 2.8.3. BuddyPress is not showing up in my WPMU admin panel, and I am still receiving the above described Fatal erro.
Please help!
Its really good to know about the latest release. The newer default theme is really awesome and i think its perfect solution for my online gaming community thanks a lot.
I’ve been having problems installing the theme, and the reply I had from the server is as follows “our servers only allow headers to be sent before any other data – some scripts try to send headers after sending the page and this will cause the error that you’re seeing.”
Been told should tell the development team about this problem that needs fixing.
Excited about the forthcoming release of 1.1…
Andy, any update on the status? The Trac says it’s now “past due”. Any new guidance for an ETA? I’ve got a big project I want to start developing the theme for, but want to wait until I see the new theming setup!
Thanks for all your hard work on this project.
In September will be the release. If you want to start now then use the trunk version, the theme setup is basically completed.
The upgrading instructions are really helpful it gives you the whole details of the process. BP support is really good thumbs up for it.
I notice the road map for version 1.1 changed to September. Are will still on course for this?

Hey Guys,
I flipped when this message:
Fatal error: Class bp_core_welcome_widget: Cannot inherit from undefined class wp_widget in /nfs/c03/h03/mnt/53593/domains/YOURDOMAIN/html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-widgets.php on line 14
I was reading all of the forums and blog posts only to realize that they seemed like very complicated fixes. I also noticed that I hadn’t backed up any previous versions of my WP.
However, after I stopped freaking out, I looked at the components of the upgrade and noticed that it was one folder called ‘buddypress’ stored in the plugins folder.
So, I got the old BuddyPress Folder from the previous version and replaced it with the upgraded folder and wah-la it was fixed.
Luckily, I had the old BP pre 1.0.2 version to replace. You may be able to find this somewhere. If not ping me and I’ll post it somewhere.
Seems that cropper.css doesn’t load with wpmu 2.8.4
I’m very new and no programmer but I have had some of the problems people are referring to here in this thread. Regarding all the issues with upgrading past 2.81 and the issue that even after you do the upgrade it still shows as needing to be upgraded. I wanted to let everyone know that I struggled with this for practically a month.
Finally, I just backed up the db and my content, deleted everything including the web space for the site itself, reinstalled the 2.84 version and BP1.03. I put my content back in and now everything works beautifully (except the crop box is messed up).
While I am a newbie and no programmer at all, my back up and reinstall took all of about 30 minutes as compared to the nearly month of frustration.
If you find yourself in the same trap, you may find that just doing a complete reinstall is the fastest route to go. For what ever its worth.
cheers everyone and thanks Andy-you are a god!
