If you’d like to tag along with us for the next 8 weeks, the 2.0 Roadmap is a great place to start. On behalf of the core development team, we’re really excited about what we have planned for 2.0, and can’t wait to get started!
This is such a great idea -and a gutsy move! Love the transparency… I’m looking forward to the new release & wishing all of you smooth sailing!
Hi,
You guys rock.. amazing work and seriously looking forward to BP 2.0.
Im currently using Xfields and have a desperate need to have them available for editing from wp-admin/profile.php. For know can you recommend any plugin that can help me achieve it.
Thanks and good luck!
This is great. I’m especially excited about the XProfile admin editing, and the last_activity usermeta improvements.
Does it mean users will be directly able to comment on blog posts from activity stream and vice versa?
If its not improper to ask here, just 2 questions
I am trying the buddypress 2 alpha version
1. There seems to be no way to post comment from blog and show it in activity stream under that blog title, there seems to be no way to comment to a blog in the activity stream and show it up simultaneously under the blog post in the blog page.
Is the “Activity comment sync for comments (r-a-y)” still not incorporated in alpha?
2. Where or how can I use the standard buddypress theme that was there in all previous versions
