Currently there is no way to disable the avatar feature.

Anton sent me a private message that the issue above was a problem with his child theme that was breaking Links.

@hnla

Thanks for reporting that broken

tag. I am going to make sure that is fixed for the next release. I am surprised that its not causing anyone problems, weird.

The PHP 5.2 requirement is based on me developing it on 5.2. WP ships with some compatibility functions for people running older versions of PHP, but since [...]

@clintaneastwood

You only need to take those steps if you are trying to override the PHP templates. If you just want to override some styles, then you can do that in your child theme\'s stylesheet.

Yes

If you guys can agree on an existing GPL events plugin that works in WordPress I might consider extending it or forking it to work with BuddyPress. The one that David Lewis mentioned looks promising, and I would probably fork that one since it hasn\'t been updated for 9 months (depending on what the author [...]

4,42,46 is not an array, that is a string of ids separated by commas. You should not be imploding the ids.

Get rid of this part of your function:

if(!empty($excludecats)){
        $excludecats = implode(\',\',$excludecats);
}

You should read up on arrays http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php

query_posts() is expecting an array to passed to it for the arg \'category__not_in\'. It looks like you are passing it a string of ids separated by commas. get_exclude_categories_loop() should be returning an array.

query_posts(array(\'category__not_in\' => array(2,6)));

See multiple category handling here:

http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts

This is not valid PHP:

 array(get_exclude_categories_loop))); ?>

This is:

Yes, if you create those files in your child theme, they should override the core templates that ship with with plugin. 
LMK if you run into any problems, not many people seem to be customizing the templates yet.

You are correct, that is a bug.  Thanks for the report.
You can change that manually, or check out the 0.3 branch, as I have just committed that fix...
svn co http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/buddypress-links/branches/0.3
Thanks!

Probably still at least a week away from a 0.4 beta. If you want to download the development version and play with it most of the group integration is done. Please don\'t post any feedback on this thread though, I don\'t want any confusion between the versions.

Do you see the problem with the default theme activated (no child theme)?
Before I release the next version I am going to do more testing on single WP myself. Up until this point I have been relying on feedback.

@WPin.me
Very cool!  I\'m glad that people are starting to play with extending this plugin. I tried hard to provide as many hooks as possible.
If you want to avoid hacking the core template you could do something like this in your functions.php:
function my_selfserv_sexy() {
    if( function_exists( \'selfserv_sexy\' ) ) {

In theory you can change the slug but it needs to be tested heavily as I\'m sure it doesn\'t work 100% yet. This is on my list of things to do in the near future.

Andy mentioned in IRC that the oEmbed filter may become a core option (enable/disable) in 1.3. Whatever happens the two will always play nice together.
FWIW, I think they serve separate purposes. My plugin will provide an alternate way to embed media in the stream without taking up quite as much real estate.
r-a-y is right, its [...]

I am seeing the issue on 1.2.1 as well, so not sure how this one slipped by. I am going to get it patched up and release a fix asap.
